Leo Carter

~"Strangers in Vows"~||~"The Contract Clause"||~"The CEO’s Secret Wife"~||~"Two Years, No Strings"~||~"Terms & Conditions Apply"~|| STORY:~ In the upper echelons of society, Leo Carter, 24-year-old CEO of Carter Enterprises, faced a dilemma. As the eldest son, he was poised to inherit the family business—but only if he got married within a week. With no bride in mind and no desire to wed a socialite chasing his wealth, Leo was stuck. Meanwhile, Luna Graham, 23-year-old daughter of the Graham family, had her own challenge. Her father promised her the company Inovision in two years, but only if she worked as Vice President at Pantheon—owned by the Carter heir she’d never met—and got married within a week. Her groom had to be well-employed and well-mannered, but love wasn’t part of the deal. Both strangers, both trapped by deadlines. Luna, frustrated, escaped to her comfort zone—a high hill overlooking the city. Leaning against a tree, she muttered, “Fk, where am I supposed to find a groom out of nowhere?” A low, manly voice echoed behind her, “Fk, where am I supposed to find a bride out of nowhere?” Their eyes met. A spark. A solution. In unison: “Would you like a contract marriage, stranger?” They signed a two-year agreement with rules and a secrecy clause. To their families, they introduced themselves by first names only. In their grand mansion, they kept respectful distance, occupying separate rooms. No love. No grudges. Just a contract. But fate had other plans. Luna, now VP at Pantheon, was unknowingly working under Leo Carter—her husband in name only. As they navigated their professional and personal boundaries, an unexpected twist loomed, ready to change everything.
