might actually be my uncle.

"Just this once." Ethan's huge cock thrust hard into me.
He lifted one of my legs and hung it over his shoulder, thrusting so hard I moaned uncontrollably. "God, you're so tight..."

I begged, "Let go of me...I'm dying..."

“I think you're drunk...”
"I'm not drunk. I'm not. I know what I'm saying." Her voice was calm but firm. "I need to feel... wanted. Or do you have a girlfriend?"
“No, I don't.....”
“Then you must be married,” Rebecca cut in.
“I’m not married.”
“Then what's stopping you? What? You don't find me attractive?” she asked, feeling slightly shy she was being rejected this way.
“No. Of course not. I–– I find you very attractive, Becca. As a matter of fact, I also want to do this but I can't. You're not in your right mind and I’d hate to take advantage of you.”
"You're not. I'm freely asking. I'm giving my consent. Please. Just hold me, make love to me and make this pain go away even if it's just for this night. I'm not asking for forever...."
"I couldn't give you forever even if that's what you wanted ––"

Before he could finish, Rebecca pressed her soft lips to his, cutting off his words.

He was quick to push against the pussy lips and open them up so that he could get inside.

She moaned as the eager tongue played inside her and pushed herself against the touch. Her excitement was running wild and she shuddered at the sensation of her pussy being licked out so eagerly by an older man.

The tongue lapping at her slick pussy walls was driving her crazy and her moans got louder as her body responded. She finally grabbed at her employer’s hair so that she could drag him up from between her thighs.
“Fuck me now,” she gasped.

"No! It can't be!" I let out an internal hiss. "He would not dare come here!"
"What the f*ck, Zara!" Levi bumped into me and growled behind me.
"Sorry," I mumbled, wide-eyed.
"Is that?" Levi mind-linked, and I nodded my head.
"Zara," my father uttered. "I understand that you are familiar with Alpha Noah."
I slowly nodded my head.
"Great," my father said. "Alpha Noah has also informed me that you are his fated mate."
I gave a nod in response.
"Superb, Alpha Noah has requested your hand."
"Is that so?" I found my voice.
Both my father and Alpha Noah nodded.
"Interesting," I said. "Were you told by Alpha Noah that he rejected me more than a year ago?"
My father's smile wavered as Alpha Noah's face turned to ash.
Did Alpha Noah really believe I would just blindly obey an order from my father without a fight?

After a drunken one-night stand with a cold stranger, Nathalie leaves money for him and walks away. She never imagined their fates were tangled deeper than a single night. When an arranged marriage ties her to that very man, a billionaire with a ruthless secret, Nathalie must protect her hidden identity as a marksman while navigating betrayals, jealous rivals, and a dangerous love neither of them saw coming.

His lips grazed her neck, slow and hungry, trailing lower until his mouth closed around her breast like he’d done it a thousand times. His hands gripped her bare waist, firm and trembling, like he needed her just to breathe. She didn’t even know his name.

One night. One wrong door, and everything changed.

Amelia Raine never meant to sleep with a stranger, let alone one that is a billionaire. But when your sister’s life hangs by a thread, desperation doesn't leave room for dignity.

She thought it would end that night.
He didn’t even know remember her name. Until she realized she was pregnant for him.
While she’s a struggling reporter.
He’s a ruthless billionaire.
And she’s carrying his child.

Now, to save both their lives from media destruction, there's only one way out; a marriage neither of them wants.

What happens when the one night you swore to forget becomes the one thing you can’t escape?
And what if pretending to love each other… becomes the most dangerous truth of all?

Four years ago, he left her with nothing but cash on the nightstand and no goodbye.

Now he’s her billionaire boss — and he swears he’s not the man she remembers.

Maya Lawson calls him Sebastian
He insists his name is Luca

She doesn’t believe him. He doesn’t care if she does.

But the longer she works under his intense gaze in the sleek Manhattan offices of Hale Empire, the more cracks appear in the story she’s told herself for years. The man she’s hated — the one who made her feel like a paid transaction — seems… different. Quieter. Sharper. Far more dangerous to her carefully guarded heart.

As forced proximity and explosive workplace rivalry pull them closer, long-buried truths begin to surface: identical twins, a night neither fully remembers, and a dead brother’s secrets that could destroy them both.

One of them is right.
One of them is about to lose everything.

And falling for the wrong twin might be the only way to finally uncover the truth.

“Your body wants me more than you let yourself admit,” Alex declared, his eyes caressing Sarah's face.

Sarah shook her head. Alex was her son's best friend. He was twenty two and Sarah was forty five and divorced.

“Whatever this is, it has to stop, Alex,” she said, trying to sound stern.

But she could feel her resolve cracking.

“You're not going to want me to stop when I touch you tonight, mama,” Alex said.

His hands stayed in his pockets and his eyes remained dark with desire.

“This is crazy,” she muttered.

He nodded.

“Crazy is a word I want to hear you say tonight when I pin you down on your bed and make love to you.”

Sarah knew she would not be able to fight this off.
This was the peak of her confusion. She was desiring a boy of twenty two and she was ready to submit herself to him. She should be ashamed that she let herself feel desire.

She should be afraid that the body of a twenty two years old boy called out to her and her body responded.

What would happen when her son found out?
What would her ex husband say when he heard that she got in a scandal over sleeping with her son's best friend just one year after their separation was finalized?

Won't he call her a terrible mother like he's always claimed she is?

Won't she lose business deals when she gets into a scandal?

There was too much at stake and she wasn't willing to risk it on the bed of pleasure.

But Alex was still looking at her. When he spoke, it was with authority.

“Take off your top and let me see your breasts, mama,” he commanded.

"Sign it."
Three years of marriage, ended in two words. Lisa had walked down that aisle in her step-cousin's place, believing love might find her. It didn't. Drex Drane barely spoke to her. Barely looked at her. But she stayed—until Cassie returned, his first love, the woman who left him at the altar.
Drex filed for divorce the same day. Threw her out the same night.
Then came the car, speeding toward them both. He had a choice: the woman who stayed, or the woman who left.
He ran past Lisa. He saved Cassie. Left her bleeding on the pavement, her last hope shattered.
That was when Lisa Red died. And when she vowed to return.
Five years later, she's the untouchable, unforgettable billionaire. The woman he discarded is now the woman every eye follows. Including his.
But when Drex finally stands before her, desperate to explain, she looks right through him and smiles:
"Do I know you?"

Five years. That's what I gave him. And what did I get? Another woman. And divorce papers he never believed I'd sign.

My husband, Zachary Francis, built his empire on my work—then handed my studio to his mistress and told me I wasn't good enough. On my birthday, he pushed me aside to rescue her from a fire she started herself. The day I finally signed? He laughed. He was sure I'd come crawling back.

But Jonathan Morris saw what my husband never did. He sees my talent. He sees me. A man who treats me like something precious, not a tool—he's offering me everything I once thought I'd lost forever.

Now Zachary watches me leave him behind. His company is falling apart. And the woman who replaced me? She's slowly turning into me.

And him?

He said I couldn't survive without him. Now he's the one begging. But I'm already gone.

Catherine was sad and got drunk after being dumped by her long-time boyfriend. Drunkenly, she knocks down two wolves, and she discovers herself in Xander's bed the next second.

Will she accept his proposal of being a contract Luna, or will she escape from there? Will they fall in love at the end?

What if you are not what you think you are? Will you take the courage to know the truth?

One day, her best friend went missing and she searched for her. She met a mysterious man whom she thought was a kidnapper.
He walks closer, I can smell his manly perfume. God, I love the scent.
"If locking you inside my room is the best way for you not to leave my house, then I will do it". He says while looking into my lips.
She met Hector, a son of the alpha and accidentally her mate. Hector needs to protect her because werewolves are after her blood. What's with her blood that werewolves would die fighting for?
They said that a weak human could never be the alpha's mate. It breaks her heart to see her mate marrying a girl from another pack. Without knowing that she was not just a human with powerful blood but a werewolf too. Daughter of alpha from the Blazing flame pack.

Lyara McKinley once had Mikael Roosevelt’s face plastered on every wall of her small-town bedroom. For three years, she chased the spotlight just to be near the world’s most adored actor—the billionaire with a smile that sold out movies and broke hearts. But when she finally stood in front of him, he didn’t even see her. His guards shoved her aside like she was nothing.
That’s when Lyara stopped caring. And that’s when Mikael noticed.
Now he’s done more than buy her modeling agency—he’s bought her. Every contract, every outfit, every breath she takes belongs to a man who collects rare things and calls them his.

"The Price of His Heart" follows Sophie Chen, a brilliant but struggling marketing executive who carries the weight of a difficult choice she made three years ago. Back then, she was a fresh graduate who fell deeply in love with Alexander Reid, an ambitious young entrepreneur. When her father's company faced bankruptcy and her mother's medical bills mounted, Sophie made the heartbreaking decision to accept a competitor's offer to spy on Alexander's growing tech startup – betraying both his trust and her own heart.
Now, Alexander is no longer the passionate dreamer she once knew. He's transformed into a ruthless billionaire CEO, and through a twist of corporate fate, he's just become her new boss. Sophie expects revenge, humiliation, or at least cold indifference. Instead, she finds herself increasingly confused by his actions – he defends her during board meetings, promotes her innovative ideas, and seems to appear whenever she's in trouble.
What Sophie doesn't know is that Alexander has spent the last three years trying to understand why the only woman he ever truly loved betrayed him. His apparent kindness masks a deeper purpose: he's determined to uncover the full truth about what happened three years ago, even as his heart wages war with his head every time she's near.
As they navigate their complex present while confronting their painful past, both must face difficult questions: Can true love survive betrayal? Is redemption possible when trust has been shattered? And most importantly – when you've hurt someone deeply, do you deserve a second chance at love?

To save her children and her future, she must stand unbroken in a kingdom built to crush her.

For five years, I was his stand-in bride—a wife who looked like the one he truly wanted. I held his hand through blindness. Rebuilt his world. Buried my dreams to be what he needed.

The day his real love came back? He slid a check across the table. "We're done."

I walked out with a shattered heart. Five years by his side, and it meant nothing the moment she showed up.

I'm done being anyone's shadow. I'm taking back my life. My light.

And when he comes crawling back, begging for another chance?

Too late.

My husband, Zachary, chose to save his sister-in-law right in front of the kidnappers.

The kidnapper pressed the gun to my temple and asked, "Choose your wife or your sister-in-law?"

Zachary didn't hesitate. "Let Valerie go," he said.

He actually chose to save his sister-in-law! In that moment, even the baby in my belly seemed to stop kicking.

Later, they locked me in the basement. Drugs to delay labor were pumped into my veins over and over. Zachary wanted to save the "firstborn son" status for his sister-in-law's child.

When warm blood finally soaked through my skirt, I dialed the number I knew by heart with shaking hands.

"Zachary," I whispered into the phone, "our child... can't wait any longer."

Everyone in our circle knows I'm Adrian's caged bird, and the "bad woman" his son Miles hates most.

For Miles, I gave up my fellowship in Zurich and spent seven years playing housewife.

What did I get in return? Adrian took Sophie to gallery openings on our anniversary. Miles smashed cake in my face in front of everyone, calling me a frumpy housewife.

Adrian was certain I couldn't leave him. Certain I couldn't leave our son.

He threw the divorce papers on the table with a cold smile. "Sign this, and you lose everything. Including Miles."

He expected me to beg on my knees.

I didn't.

I picked up the pen and signed without hesitation.

"Fine, Adrian. You keep Miles. And I get to keep myself."

For just a moment, I saw shock flash in his eyes.

I heard later that Adrian searched for me like a madman, and the son he doted on cried and screamed for his mommy.

Too bad. I'd already burned it all down myself.

The day I went into labor, my husband threw me into Dragon's Pyre.

Draven was the Dragon King. I was carrying his child. Should've been the happiest day of our lives. Instead, it became hell.

Why? His dead brother Kael's widow, Seraphina, was about to pop too. And Ashwing law was crystal clear: first male heir takes the throne.

Our due dates? One day apart.

So he picked her over me. Because apparently, I OWED them.

Dragon's Pyre—where they roast criminals alive with dragonflame. Hot enough to turn flesh to ash in seconds. But that wasn't enough for them. They shoved some potion down my throat that would keep my body from going into labor, even though my baby was clawing to get OUT.

I was curled up on that scorching stone slab, feeling my child die inside me.

All because I'd been stupid enough to fall in love with him.
