“You have no right to treat me in this way.”
Francisco, a man with a darkness that matched the shadows of his empire, gritted his teeth and issued a chilling warning, "I can be more cruel to you, detective."
‘I am not weak; just remember it, Francisco. I am not afraid of you…’

His lips brushed mine, and for one reckless heartbeat, I believed it was real.
Then my mate’s voice cut through the air.
Rhael his eyes burning with hurt, as if he hadn’t been the one to reject me for being an Omega.
Auren’s arm tightened around me, his growl silencing him, staking a claim that was never meant to last.
When the crowd was gone, his tone changed low, cold, merciless.
“No one’s watching now. Let go.”
And I did. Because I’d forgotten what I was to him
a lie dressed as a lover, a pawn pretending to matter.

Brought up in a happy home, she had everything she wanted and people who would do anything to provide what she needed. She was confident about her future and to make it more exciting, she found love.

A lover so passionate that he ignited feelings she couldn’t process and it made her feel like she was on top of the world.

The only problem was the man responsible for making Clarissa lose all her reasoning.

Clarissa believed she knew everything about her new lover, Gabriel Lance. She knew He was off bounds, being the heir of the rival pack- Blood Moon but she couldn’t listen to her head. She saw a good in him no one else saw and was determined he was not like everyone in her pack claims.

He was different, a charmer and a passionate mate and he loved her with all his heart.

She was so positive of his love for her but everything changed when she came back from her one month vacation, pregnant and mated to the one person she should never have had something to do with.

Her father, who loved her more than anything was willing to accept her back as long as she got rid of the forbidden child which she blatantly refused to.

Clarissa left the pack she knew as her home as she couldn’t bare to loose the child and her father couldn’t bare to raise such a shame and damnation in his house.

I'm the only daughter of a mafia leader. I married Marco, an outsider, against my father's wishes.

Six months ago, my father died in a car accident. Marco took over part of the family business. One day when I was feeling down, I passed through the slums and saved a girl named Gianna who was being beaten for stealing food. I took her in as my assistant and treated her like a sister.

But when I was six months pregnant, I walked into the company break room and found Gianna in lingerie, seducing Marco.

I ordered my guards to send her back to the slums immediately.

Marco tried to plead for her. I cut him off coldly: "I don't want to see her again."

He went silent for a moment but didn't oppose my decision.

Over the next three months, Marco seemed warm and caring on the surface but grew increasingly distant. I thought he was just busy with work and decided to help him after the baby was born.

My due date is this week.

Last night, Marco lulled me to sleep like always, his voice so gentle.

But now when I wake up, I find myself lying in the middle of a deserted forest.

And my husband, holding Gianna whom I had sent away, looked at me arrogantly and said, "Since you love sending people away so much, I suppose it shouldn't be a problem for me to send you here to give birth, should it?"

Gabriella was a poor and innocent girl. She lived alone in a house that's inherited from her parents. Until one day, the house was destroyed by the Quebracha Company. When she met with the CEO to protest, an incident occurred.

"You, lecherous man! Are you not satisfied with destroying my house? So, you took my virginity?"

"Confess it! You purposely held your house to block our project, then now you're tricking me to sleep with you. What's your real intention, huh? Who paid you?"

Max Evans, the successful and handsome young CEO, accused her of being a messenger woman.

What happened next? Could Gabriella earn the CEO's trust? Or even his heart and love? Would those people realize that they were both framed?

stranded outside the Steel Roads MC compound, and the most dangerous man she's ever seen
pulls her out of the dark.
Jett Harlow doesn't do innocent. He doesn't do complications. And he absolutely doesn't do
preachers' daughters with wide eyes and a mouth that won't quit. But Grace stumbles into his
world and refuses to flinch, refuses to be dismissed, and refuses to stop looking at him like she
sees something worth saving underneath all that leather and sin.
He's spent fifteen years burying a past that would destroy everything he's built. The club. The
loyalty. The careful control he keeps on the darkness inside him. Grace makes him want to let it
breathe and that terrifies him more than any enemy ever has.
But someone from Jett's past hasn't forgotten what he did to survive. And a threat moving
quietly through Millhaven is about to shatter the world Grace has always known, forcing her to
choose between the safety of everything familiar and the man who makes her feel like she was
never truly alive until now.
He knows he'll ruin her. She knows he's worth the risk. The devil always did have a weakness
for grace.
She stumbled into his darkness. He never found his way back to the light until her.

I wish someone had taught me you can’t make your happiness all about loving one person, because what happens when you lose them? What happens to what’s left of you after they’ve taken half of you?

My name is Elysian Reign, and unlike my last name, I’m not extraordinary. My mother died when I was born, and my father drank himself to death. I graduated with a Mathematics degree of which I hardly use as a junior Network Security Engineer. I live in a one-bedroom apartment around the corner of my favorite gym, and I have a Saint Bernard named Bubbles—unextraordinarily so.

His name is Cade Sinclair, and unlike me, he is extraordinary. His mother was one of my professors before she passed, and his father is the owner of Sinclair Enterprises. Yes, as in Sinclair Enterprises: the largest firearm manufacturer for the Armed Forces.

I should’ve known better. But you never imagine that the love of your life’s own father would go through lengths to make sure his son doesn’t end up with someone like you—even if it means forcing him into an experimental military hypnosis treatment.

After three years of putting myself back together, you’d think I’d have learned my lesson. You’d think that I would’ve double checked before accepting a job for a company his father happens to own. You’d think that I would’ve changed my identity and left the country after walking in on my first day to find that Cade is the lead Network Engineer on my team—aka, my boss.

Now, how am I supposed to work with him when he’s made it his mission to make my life a living hell? How am I supposed to make him—at the very least—tolerate me when he’s been hypnotized to hate me?

I should know better than to hook up with the handsome stranger at my best friend’s wedding.   Especially when he runs off mid-kiss like Cinderella at midnight.    Is he a fugitive from justice? A player? Both?   I find out soon enough when he shows up at work—where I was just hired as a law partner defending white collar criminals. Yup, he’s one of them. And he’s depending on me to keep him out of jail.   He’s also just as hot, charming, and tempting as he was the night of the wedding. Talk about forbidden love.   The last thing I should do is get involved with a client, especially one who may be guilty of all kinds of things.    Not the least of which is stealing my heart.

Ashes in Her Mouth

The fire took more than walls. It took names. Faces. Pieces of me I’ll never get back.

Now it’s back. Different street, same smoke. Same teeth in the dark.

The brass call it arson. I call it unfinished business.

Every blaze leaves a mark a body, a whisper, a threat carved in soot. Someone wants me chasing. Someone wants me choking on the past.

I should walk away. Let the flames eat the city clean. But the next fire is already lit. And I know where it’s burning.

Not a matter of if I get there in time. Just what I’ll lose when I do.

"Turn around and get on all fours."

He said it with his tongue still tracing circles against her clit.

She was a werewolf, not a bitch—she didn't want to do this. But she obeyed, because she thought if she gave him everything, he'd finally mark her as his.

She was wrong.

After he'd brutally fucked her to climax with his cock, he tossed a check for two million at her and called her a defective, powerless, lowly Beta. She'd handed him her body, her nights, her research—every piece of herself. And in return, he told her she was nothing more than a convenient hole, a stand-in for the woman he'd always truly loved.

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

She tore off her disguise. Then she burned down the empire she'd built for him—and the full weight of her royal blood made him crawl to her feet, tail between his legs, begging for mercy.

She didn't even spare him a glance. Her revenge had only just begun.

And standing beside her was her true soulmate—the Alpha King who'd been hunting her for three long years.

Her perfect life shattered on her wedding eve when she discovered her fiancé’s infidelity.
Disoriented and devastated, she fell into the arms of her fiancé’s cold, powerful elder brother.
Entangled in forbidden love and hidden betrayal, she breaks free from her broken past, fighting for redemption and a long-awaited true happiness.

What starts as personal grief becomes a fierce crusade for justice. Armed with nothing but determination and a growing sisterhood of women who've lost everything, Sarah transforms from a timid waitress into a fearless leader taking on one of the most powerful corporations in America.
But fighting the system means risking everything—her job, her safety, and the fragile life she's built. Will Sarah find the strength to burn down the walls of injustice, or will she be crushed by the very system she's trying to change?

I thought I hated him, because he was everything I should have stayed away from.

Cold and arrogant with claws that were always ready to drive into me.

As our paths continued to cross, the feelings I had fought hard to bury grew, little by little, bit by bit until they sprang into a giant mass that I couldn't keep down.

But there's always two sides to a story; some people get it right from the start, while others spend their entire lifetime chasing a single right. Because loving Otis came with a price, a price I wasn't sure I'd live long enough to pay.

Time wasn't waiting, but love was hurting.

Will love take absolute control of this love story, or will mercy say no?

Maybe you should relax back with a box of tissues by the side while we find out.

At my birthday party, my husband whispered to his mistress in French that he missed her.

At the Jones family’s political marriage gala, the New York mafia’s most public “celebration”, I, Isabella Rossi, who was a bargaining chip, had been Donovan Jones’s wife for five years.
He was the world’s top perfumer, the kind of man who could coax a scent from his fingertips that made people go mad-and yet, to him, I was a flower with no fragrance at all.
Five years of this marriage, and he had never touched me. The villa’s master bedroom was always his alone, while I was nothing but the “Mrs. Jones” in name-a decorative prop trapped in a luxury cage, so insignificant that even the servants dared to look down on me in secret.
When both sets of parents pressured us for a baby, he wrapped an arm around a famous model and sneered,
“A woman raised off a template like you is only good for taking care of a kid, not for sleeping with.”
He left me behind in the bridal suite-with his younger brother.
Then he took his new fling out street-racing.
That same night, a video of him and the model hooking up in a car shot straight to the top of the entertainment headlines.
And I became New York media’s favorite punchline: the “DISCARDED TROPHY WIFE.”
Just when everyone thought I’d spend the night alone, guarding an empty bed,
I crooked a finger at that eight-pack, absurdly good-looking brother-in-law of mine.
Donovan, you’re right-I am pretty suited to “taking care of a kid.”
Just not a baby. A 6'2", baby-faced college boy.

I am the youngest Don of the Obsidian Family.
After an unexpected rest, my opponent sent me a street racing invitation.
I went to my brother's company to retrieve my car, but was drugged with ether by my brother's secretary.
She told me that no one could seduce her man.
She kicked my stomach, threatened me with a paper cutter to make a vow, and said her future sister-in-law is the youngest Don of the Obsidian Family—if I dared to retaliate against her, I would die miserably.
I looked at her coldly.
Really?
But I haven't agreed to be your sister-in-law yet!

"Tell me the truth, Suzan. Is he mine?"

"You lost the right to ask that question five years ago, Anthony."

Five years ago, Suzan Royce gave her heart to the wrong man. Trapped in a fake relationship with the ruthless billionaire playboy Anthony Carter, she never expected to fall for him—until he shattered her world. Heartbroken and pregnant, she disappeared without a trace.

Now, she’s back. No longer the naïve girl he abandoned, Suzan has transformed into Celeste Laurent—a powerful, untouchable businesswoman engaged to another man. But Anthony isn't fooled. He sees through her cold façade, and the moment he lays eyes on her son, he knows the truth.

When a shocking murder frames Anthony and dark family secrets begin to unravel, their tangled past resurfaces with a vengeance. Lies, betrayal, and deadly conspiracies threaten to destroy everything. But this time, Suzan isn’t just fighting for herself—she’s fighting for her son.

Can Anthony and Suzan break free from their toxic past, or will their love story end in ruin once again?

You remind me of your father." She said, her voice pinched with irritation as she stared at Rafael Rollers.
He shrugged nonchalantly and dropped to a crouch in front of her, running his hand through her hair.
"That's why I chose you, Kimberly."
•••••••
Kimberly didn't expect to be Fredrick Rollers captive at a young age because of her irresponsible parents.
She endured it for years and when an opportunity to take her oppressor out of the way, she latched on it but she had no idea it would backfire.
Now, she has two options, walk into jail with hefty debts she won't be able to pay off for the rest of her life or marry Rafael Rollers and her charges would be cleared but it leaves her at the mercy of the man she wished death upon.

Fake marriage? Quite achievable, but not falling for the grey orbs that encapsulates her every damn time? Seems like a hard task.

“I Made a Proposal.”
“Thank you for the offer,” she said between clenched teeth, “but I won’t warm your bed.”
I shook my head. “You don’t have to share my bed, Miss Hunter. In fact, I’d much prefer we keep separate bedrooms. I’ve just lost my mate—I can’t… I don’t want… That is, what I’m proposing is a marriage of convenience. We can help each other. I’ll give you my name so people can stop yapping about what happened between you and the alpha’s brat. No more pity. No more gossip. And I’ll share whatever I have, Miss Hunter, though it’s a humble offer. I’ll make sure you’re taken care of. In return, you keep the house and do the things a mother should do for the child.”
The alpha’s son thought he would humiliate me in front of everyone by rejecting me—but I turned the tables on him. I rejected him first.
Now I’m paying the price for embarrassing the alpha. I’ve been kicked out of my family home, and I can’t get a job. My life looks bleak and hopeless… until a tall, dark, and handsome stranger shows up at the tavern with a small boy at his side.
The newly widowed Jareth makes an insane proposal: a fake marriage.
I get a home and the protection of his name. He gets a live-in babysitter for his kid. But he doesn’t know I’m no ordinary she-wolf… and something tells me Jareth is hiding something too.

"I don't know what kind of trick you are playing or what powers you have, but I will have you locked up, until I can find a way to undo you. And I will be the end of you!!!"

Lucien Draco used to be the most powerful werewolf in existence, a born Alpha destined for greatness. But when his entire family was brutally murdered before his eyes, he made a choice that would curse him forever. He turned himself into a hybrid, the first turn to ever survive the transformation because he sold his soul to the devil in exchange for the power to seek revenge.

Now referred to as the Devil's Son, he is the most feared creature across all supernatural territories.

Never did he imagine that fate would grant him a mate. And not just any mate, a human. A human he cannot compel.

On her eighteenth birthday, Claire Lockwood is sold into slavery and purchased by the ruthless hybrid everyone whispers about in terror. She should be just another possession, easily controlled and broken. But Claire is different. She is immune to his compulsion, the very power that makes Lucien unstoppable.

To him, she is a threat. An anomaly. Something that must be destroyed.

But as Lucien searches for ways to end her, he discovers the impossible truth this human girl he despises is his mate. The bond he never wanted. The weakness he cannot afford.

Claire truly just an ordinary human caught in a world beyond her understanding? Or is there something more to the girl who can resist the Devil's Son?

And what will happen when Lucien realizes that the very person he vowed to destroy might be the only one who can save what little remains of his humanity?

Sheetal's Soliloquy
I know you. You were the one who had been bothering me. With a chuckle, he replied, "I know you'll never forget me, Dolce." However, you made a small mistake. Honey, that wasn't harassment. That was my devotion to you. " He abruptly grabbed my waist as he spoke. I arched my back and stared at him, my eyes wide. This crazy boy has returned, but he is not the same as before. He is now more attractive.
When I thought, I coughed unexpectedly and said, "Excuse me." What's your name? "

His green eyes lengthened as he pulled me close, "Where else did he touch you?" His voice hardened and I shivered.
“Stop, He..”
He pressed his lips against mine before I could finish my statement.
“You're soaking wet for me baby. Do you feel this way about him too? Does his touch make you this wet?" He growled I could feel the anger in his voice.
“Listen to me little mouse.” His voice was cold, his green eyes pierced into mine with an intensity that made me shudder.
“You are mine alone.” He nipped on my earlobe, his breath hot against my skin. “You don't let anyone else touch you okay?”
We shouldn't be doing this. He didn't love me and I was just one of many girls caught in his web. Worse still, he was my Stepbrother.

“Are you sure you want me to paint on something else other than the canvas? I asked, my eyes still on him as I slid my hand under his shirt, my fingers grazing the warm skin of his back as I dragged him closer by the waist.
“Well,” he whispered, “I don’t mind being your canvas.” He smirked wickedly. “Give it your best shot, Mr. Flame and Fleur. Turn me into a masterpiece.”

🔥 EDITORIAL RECOMMENDATION: This book RUINED us!

Serena destroys Matteo Russo with a single testimony. He's declared a criminal. His empire crumbles. His name becomes poison. That same night, she disappears. Fakes her death. Becomes a ghost. Years later, just when she's built a fragile peace under a new identity, he walks back into her life. And he's nothing like the man who once worshipped at her feet.
This Matteo is forged from vengeance and ice. This Matteo wants blood.
He wants her shattered. He wants her trembling. He wants her body, her fear, her complete and utter submission—one piece at a time.

The torture becomes too much. She flees into the arms of another man—gentle, protective, everything Matteo isn't. He promises safety. A fresh start. Love without violence.
She almost believes him.Meanwhile, Matteo is spiraling. His obsession with her grows toxic, all-consuming. Every time he punishes her, he only wants her more. Her defiance drives him insane. Her fire burns him alive. She was supposed to be his revenge.
Instead, she became his devastation.
Now Serena stands at a crossroads between two men:
The gentle savior who offers warmth, healing, and escape from her nightmare—
The beautiful monster she once loved, whose darkness still claims every broken corner of her heart, whose touch she craves even as it destroys her.
One promises to protect her.
The other swears to own her.

I should have known that working for the cruel, frigid billionaire Damian Blackwood would be a nightmare. When I saw the cold gaze in his sharp gray eyes and the way he treated me like I were nothing, I should have turned to go.

However, I was unable to. This employment was necessary for me.

Aria, his daughter, is eight years old and struggling due to her father's inability to show her affection. Somehow, she picks me up when she needs someone.

Damian observes her laughing, the warmth in her eyes, and myself for the first time in years. Even if his words hurt me and his presence suffocates me, there is something broken behind his merciless façade that draws me in despite my better judgment.

Then I discover the reality.

His spouse didn't just pass away. She was killed. And the guy who did it? He's closer than I thought he would be.

Damian is not a trusting person. I've now given him every reason to think that I was sent to ruin him.

Because of the person he has been pursuing? He used to be the guy I cherished.

The monster I believed I had fled is again returning to haunt me.

Liam Salcedo was betrothed to the President's illegitimate daughter, but he discovered that his fiancée was feigning innocence and purity. He called off the engagement, but years later, his family arranged for him to marry another woman, this time, the notorious daughter of Felix Montes. He, like his older brothers Ethan and Lance, desired to break free from the norm of arranged marriage. He didn't want to disappoint his parents, however. He couldn't refuse his parents' desires, but he was confident he could persuade Selena Montes not to marry him, or he would find a cause not to proceed with the wedding, whichever comes first. He requested a favor from his brother, Lance, to temporarily take over the firm in order to carry out his plan about Selena Montes. He was on the alert for Selena's movements, and when she attempted to flee, he was there immediately to return her, and Felix was thrilled to offer him a position as Selena's bodyguard. It was a fight between the intellect and the senses under the same house, but they quickly fell in love.
