Tessa is the picture perfect student with good grades, flawless attendance and a charming smile. With one year left to graduate high school and a bucket list imposed by her best friend, her goal is pretty much the same with an extra addition--tick off every item on the cursed bucket list.

But trouble comes knocking in the form of blue eyes, muscled body and an ego the size of her head. What happens when the school's badboy, Benjamin notices her in a boxing ring?

Pain shot through my body as I woke up. Every muscle ached in ways I'd never felt before. My face burned as memories flooded back: his body pressed against mine, his deep voice commanding "Engrave this name into your soul. From this night forward, you're mine—for a lifetime, for eternity." But now? He was gone. Just a card left behind like I was some transaction. My fingers trembled as I crumpled that paper and threw it in the trash. "I'll take your money, Barrett Thompson," I whispered bitterly. "But I don't need you."

Sera Ginger was drugged and sold by her own father to a seventy-three-year-old man—until Barrett Thompson, the presidential heir and billionaire CEO, intervened. One passionate night changed everything. Now Sera must rebuild her life while her cruel father and spoiled half-sister Marissa continue tormenting her, completely unaware of what's coming.

What happens when Sera's toxic family discovers the truth? Will the mysterious Barrett Thompson reappear in her life? And how sweet will revenge taste when those who trampled on her realize who she really spent that night with?

"An agreement? But we only met last night. I appreciate you saving me, but things are not like this," Catherine said, trying to keep her voice calm, but she felt unsettled, a growing sense of unease.
Lucius chuckled softly and approached Catherine, gently lifting her chin to speak, "It's okay, if you don't want to, we can negotiate compensation for breaking the contract. As for your stepfather, I'm not sure." His eyes began to shine now, a confident, assertive demeanor.
"This meaningless contract, I cannot agree to it. It's best you let me go." Catherine said firmly, her tone escalating into an inner battle.
"Naomi Catherine, at most, you have three days to give me an answer. If you dare to defy me, it won't just be the 10 million dollars from the contract. It will also be your stepfather's life."
"Catherine, I don't want to become your adversary. But I hope you'll make a wise decision. The price of deception and compromise is never cheap, and sometimes, it can change your entire life."
Catherine felt like Lucius's words were a glaring red light, highlighting the danger of the situation. But at the same time, she also felt the limitation of freedom and the imposition of a decision she didn't want to face.
"Moreover, I can also help you get revenge."


Naomi Catherine gave ten years of her life to Liam Claude, sacrificing everything to help him rise to fame—only to be discarded like she never mattered. Betrayed, humiliated, and left with nothing, she thought she had hit rock bottom.
Until her stepfather sold her to Lucius Ravenwood.
A powerful CEO with no interest in love, Lucius needed a wife to silence his family’s demands. Catherine needed an escape. The deal was simple—one year, no feelings, no complications.
But neither of them expected the lines to blur so easily.
When past betrayals resurface, and old flames return with dangerous intentions, Catherine and Lucius are forced into a battle not just for control—but for survival.
Because love was never part of the deal.
But now? It might be the only thing left to save them.
A gripping, high-stakes romance filled with passion, betrayal, and redemption. In a game of power and obsession, who will surrender first?

Welcome to my shit show!

Nineteen-year-old Mila has no room for dreams. She only has room for survival.

In a cramped Brooklyn apartment, Mila plays a dangerous game of pretend. She pretends to her younger sisters that they aren't three days away from the lights going out. She pretends to her exhausted parents that she doesn’t mind being the "third parent." And she pretends to herself that the scholarship to the city's most elite university will be her ticket out of the gutter.

But the elite world doesn't welcome outsiders; it devours them.

Enter Nathaniel Salvatore. Cold, untouchable, and heir to a shipping empire that owns half the city. To Nate, Mila is a "fixture"—a charity case whose presence at his university is an insult to his legacy. He sets out to make her regret every step she takes on his campus.

But when a devastating accident binds their lives together, Nate's cruelty turns into something much more dangerous: obsession.

As Mila’s parents descend into a world of gambling debts and disappearances, leaving her to protect her sisters alone, Nate makes an offer she can't refuse. He will pay for their safety. He will pay for the lights to stay on. But the price is Mila herself.

From the gritty streets of Brooklyn to the mahogany-lined libraries of the elite, Mila finds herself trapped between two worlds. One man wants to save her, another wants to own her, and Mila is just trying to survive the man who wants both.

In a world where everything has a price, what happens when the Heir decides to claim the only thing he can't buy?

I never meant to catch the attention of the Vampire King.
But the night he walked into my quiet southern bar, the shadows bowed, the air stilled… and his eyes locked on mine like he’d been hunting me for centuries.
I should’ve run.
Instead, I watched him—tall, ancient, devastating in his power—as an illegal vampire nest attacked. My own hidden magic erupted in a blinding surge, saving my life… and exposing the truth I’ve spent years burying.
Now the King wants answers.
About my blood.
About my power.
About why I can hear his thoughts for a split second when no human should.
He takes me to his court, a place of velvet darkness and political teeth, swearing it’s for my protection. But his gaze lingers too long, his voice coils around me like a promise, and every step I take pulls me deeper into a world where desire is as dangerous as any blade.
The King says I belong to him.
Not as prey—
but as something far more impossible.
As factions rise against his throne and my power spirals out of control, I’m faced with a truth more terrifying than his fangs:
I’m not afraid of the monster.
I’m afraid of how badly I want him.
And when a prophecy whispers that only together can we survive the coming darkness…
I have to decide whether to run from the Vampire King—
—or step willingly into his arms and become the flame that could burn his kingdom to ash.

"In the world of shadows, loyalty is bought, love is a weapon, and once the mafia claims you, you're ruined—body, soul, and everything you once believed in."

Enzo Mezzesalma was cold, aggressive, ruthless, and grim. He had no weakness until he met her and once he got a taste of her, she became his new addiction, now he couldn't let go and she became his only weakness and now, they all wanted her just so they could ruin that perfect facade he had built over the years but only if they knew he was worst than the monster they had never heard of, he was just too good at hiding it. There had to be a reason for Rule Number 3, right?

It was summer and Anastasia thought the rest of her days would be sunny but she was dead as she stepped into her home for the first in two years after moving to the university campus to be exchanged for her parent's debts and just like that, Anastasia was thrown into the Mafia world, working as a maid to pay off her parents debts and then she met Enzo Mezzesalma and rule number 3 said: Stay Away From Enzo Mezzesalma. Anastasia didn't know when she started breaking that rule and got herself buried in a hole she wouldn't be able to pull herself out.

"My own death does not frighten me, but yours? Oh, that's my greatest and deepest fear," - Enzo Mezzesalma
"Being his slut and being a slut are two entirely different things," - Anastasia Martin

His blue eyes darkened as he stepped into my space, backing me slowly against the wall.

I clenched my jaw. “Move.”

Instead, he lifted a hand, stopping just short of touching me. Close enough that I could feel the heat of him.

“Tell me,” he said mockingly gentle, “is it like this with everyone?”
His lips brushed my ear. “Or am I special?”

“Don’t,” I whispered, even as my fingers curled into his shirt.

“That’s not what your hands are saying.”

I tried to step away, but my body betrayed me. The way he nipped at my ear, the way his hands held me with an intensity that made my chest tighten…it was wrong. Every glance, every touch, every harsh word from him made my blood burn. I hated him. I hated how he made me feel. And yet…I couldn’t stop myself from leaning closer.

Avery Voss has always been the wild twin—the prodigy, the one who chased music instead of grades, the one her parents barely noticed, the one who lived recklessly. Her sister Emery was the safe twin…the golden girl everyone loved, the one who followed the rules and carried their parents’ expectations without complaint.
But one night, everything changed. A single choice forced Avery to step into Emery’s life…her school, her world.

High school should have been simple. Blend in. Survive.

But surviving means enduring Asher Whitlock…the school’s golden boy, star soccer player, charming, ruthless, and terrifyingly clever. He teases, and tests Avery at every turn, and she hates him for it.

Yet the longer she survives his cruelty, the more she sees the cracks beneath his perfect exterior, the demons he hides behind that flawless smile. And suddenly, the line between hate starts to blur into something that could destroy them both.

But a hidden enemy watches from the shadows.

Can their love survive, or will the deadliest threat the wolves have ever known tear them apart?

Elara died on her knees—begging her mate to save her.

Elara, the lowly omega with a forbidden lineage, was rejected and betrayed by the one destined to love her—Alpha Kade of the Silvermoon Pack.

While he watches her being executed, she whispers before she dies. “The Moon will judge you… and I will be her hand.”

Five hundred years later, a girl named Sera was born to humans in a coastal city haunted by memories not her own. Timid, fragile, and cursed with strange dreams of stones and betrayal, she never realises she is part wolf and part witch until she meets Jade—Kade reborn and the Alpha of the Silvermoon pack.

The Moon chose her. And the moon will never forget.

Sera begins to remember everything, and her past life comes to her. She is Elara reborn—and she has returned to make him pay.

She either serves vengeance with a side dish of revenge, or the tide turns and love is given a second chance.

I never expected to find a man tied to a chair, bloody and barely breathing, in my billionaire husband’s forbidden basement—so I did the only logical thing: I stole my husband's money, untied the gorgeous stranger, and ran for our lives.

Brad is broken, scarred, and terrified of the dark. But as his wounds healed, the terrified stranger turned into my fierce protector. The nights of holding him through his night terrors slowly turned into nights of tangled limbs and breathless moans. He became my entire world.

We finally found a crappy apartment in Arkansas. A place to breathe. But yesterday, the coil wire on our car was deliberately ripped off. And last night, when I woke up in the pitch black, the front door I swore I locked was standing wide open...

Aria Bennett has one goal,get through high school, keep her head down, and secure a future she can actually afford.

It’s been working so far… until she’s offered a paid tutoring job with a scholarship attached.

Dominic Hayes.

Star quarterback. Top of the social ladder.
And the same person who’s made her life miserable for years.

So she stays.

What starts as forced tutoring turns into constant arguments, quiet tension, and moments neither of them quite understands.

Because the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to hold onto the past version of each other, and somewhere along the line, hate stops feeling so simple.

I’m in love with my sworn enemy.
My touch tames his inner beast.
… Until I find another woman’s bite mark on his neck.

As a holy witch, I shouldn't be sneaking out for Zuri—a cursed shape-shifter from a rival clan.
But our forbidden heat is intoxicating.
When his monstrous Primal breaks free, slaughtering everything in its path, even his fiercest warriors cower.
I don't.
I walk straight to the blood-soaked beast, press my body against his, and tame him with a single, desperate embrace.

There’s just one problem: his clan betrothed him to a Shaman’s daughter.

I tell myself it's purely political. I tell myself his heart is mine.
Until tonight.
He sneaks into the woods for me. We share a deep, hungry kiss under the moonlight.
But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...
Is a fresh, undeniable bite mark.

His iron grip was fastened around my waist and he pinned me on to the wall.
"Let go of me!" I gritted.
"If I want to right now" he leaned in close, his lips grazing my earlobe.
"I can forcefully have my way with you and watch you scream your beautiful melodious tone underneath me" he whispered gravelly.

I gasped and tried getting his hands of my waist.
"You are my wife after all aren't you?" He teased, his teeth gently nibbling on my skin.
I felt a strange heat brewing up inside me and I fought to control it.
"Dante let go of me!" I seethed.
Slowly, his head ascended from my neck and faced me.
He ran a finger along my lips and a devilish smile curled up on his face.

But when she stepped out of her “safe place” to embrace the parents she never knew, she didn’t find love but found betrayal. Sold like currency into a marriage meant to strengthen weak alliances.

Before the altar, she is stolen. Not rescued. Stolen. By the ruthless Mafia Prince, her sworn enemy. The man who holds the world in his fist, who sees her not as a bride but as the final weapon to end a blood feud that carved their destinies.

What begins as revenge soon spirals into obsession, into fire, into the one forbidden truth neither can escape;
They were made for each other, in blood, in war, in love.

But love in a world of blood has a price. And the price is everything.

Fake crown. Wrong bride. Real mate bond....And one very unplanned pup.

Leanna
I was the princess’s shadow—her stand-in for speeches, signatures, and, apparently, the Alpha’s impostor bride.
Cedric Raine needed a bride to end a war. I needed to survive.
The crown was fake. The name wasn’t mine.
But every touch on mating night? Terrifyingly real.
He marked me, mated me, made me believe I wasn’t just a lie.
Until the real princess came back.

And he locked me in a cell.
So I left—with his heir.
Six years later, I don’t wear crowns—I build business empires.
Now I return to his palace in heels, diamonds, and zero regrets.
And when he sees my little boy with his eyes?
The crown won’t be the only thing at my feet.

Cedric
She wasn’t the princess. I knew it the second she stepped into my court.
But her scent, her fire, the way she trembled in my arms—that was real.

I kept her because I couldn’t let her go.
Even when the truth came for us, I chose silence to protect her.
Now she’s back—with a new name, her own kingdom, and a child that looks just like me.
And I’d burn mine down just to have her again.

"Let's get married here, today. I'll give you a home, a family, and after you give me an heir, you'll walk away with a hundred million dollars."
After being humiliated on her wedding day and finding her fiancé in bed with his secretary, Angel's world shattered. With nowhere to go and no one to turn to, she found herself standing before Salvatore, a man desperate for a bride to fulfill his dying grandfather's wish.
A contract marriage. One year. One heir. No love.
But as the days turn into nights filled with tension and stolen glances, the line between obligation and desire begins to blur. Beneath Salvatore's cold demeanor lie secrets, a vengeful ex, and enemies determined to destroy them both.
What started as a fake marriage soon becomes a dangerous game of passion and power — and the price of falling in love might be far higher than either of them ever imagined.

"You say it's not possible to have feelings for me before the wedding," Zephyr said again, his voice roughening, "yet your body language always seems to say the opposite when I'm close."
He reached out slowly, picking a strand of golden hair and toying with it.
"Like now," He continued seductively, tucking the hair in its rightful place before deliberately letting his fingers brush against the back of my ear.
I took in a shuddering breath at the contact, my gaze dropping to his lips before darting away shyly.

Zephyr tipped my chin up, making me look into his eyes.
"You're always so quick to run your mouth," he scolded, teasing me by slowly running his thumb over my bottom lip. "But right now you're quiet. Why is that, Wildflower, mmm?"
"Stay back, Zeph." I said weakly, his name coming out in a whisper.
My eyes drifted to his lips again.
"I don't think you want me to," he said, lowering downward till his lips were close to my ear. "Why… so… quiet. Mm?"

Sold into a forced marriage with Zephyrus Wrath, a ruthless, impossibly powerful Alpha Lycan, Lyla Gray becomes a pawn in a tradition she doesn’t understand and refuses to accept.
She is the one woman who won’t submit even when trapped in a world where mates are worshipped and claimed without question.

Zephyrus never wanted a wife. He never needed one.
But from the moment the stubborn, defiant Lyla steps into his domain, she becomes an obsession he cannot control... and a weakness his enemies are quick to notice.

“You can remain mute and angry if you wish, but let me warn you, little wolf, I have an abundance of time, I will keep you here until you obey me.” He ran a hand through his hair......


Rhea is promised to the vampire King, yet she has spent her whole life dreaming of the mate bond and what it could give her. She wants an epic love. Something beyond all the limits of mortality. Can she find that with the undead king?

She was supposed to walk down the aisle in white.

Instead, Sophia Hart was left standing alone in front of three hundred guests while her groom, billionaire Alexander Blackwood, announced he was leaving her for her best friend.

Humiliated, heartbroken, and burning with rage, Sophia vanished that night with five million dollars mysteriously wired into her account and a single note: This is your freedom. Use it.

For three years, she disappeared into Paris, remade into the cool, untouchable Elise Moreau under the ruthless guidance of a mentor who knew Alexander’s cruelty all too well. She learned power, seduction, and how to ruin a man without ever raising her voice.

Now she’s back in New York, a stranger to the world that once watched her fall. No one recognizes the poised Frenchwoman who walks into the room and turns every head.

Especially not Alexander.

Old sparks still burn between them, hotter and darker than before. Stolen glances across crowded ballrooms.

A brush of fingers that lingers too long. Late-night encounters in empty offices where walls echo with heavy breaths and whispered names.

He wants her.

She lets him think he can have her.

But every touch, every kiss, every fevered moment against cool glass or silk sheets is on her terms and every second brings him closer to losing everything he thought was his.

But revenge isn’t cold. It’s hot, slow, and very, very personal.

This time, she’s not the bride he left.
She’s the woman who’ll bring him to his knees.

She was discarded in the rain like she was nothing... and now she is the force that will rewrite everything.
Seraphine never expected to be payment for her father's debt. Married to Alpha Fael Varyn to settle what was owed, she spent two years trying to be the Luna he refused to acknowledge. When she finally conceived, she thought everything would change. She was wrong. Fael rejected their bond, and left her bleeding in the rain. She should have died that night.
Instead, she was saved by Darius Varyn, Fael's banished uncle and sworn enemy. In the forbidden North, Darius offered her something Fael never did, acceptance, protection, and a chance to be the Luna she was always meant to be.
Six years later, Seraphina has built a life with Darius and raised her son Aurelian in peace. Until Fael returns with a devastating prophecy. Forced to return to the place of her greatest trauma, Seraphina must navigate political schemes, a mistress bent on destroying her, and two Alphas fighting for the throne.
But when a shocking truth about Aurelian's bloodline is revealed and a piece of her past comes back for her, the tides grow thicker. And when her power awakens, the prey becomes the predator.
"You've changed, Seraphine," Fael murmured, his eyes scanning the crown I now wore. "You used to beg for my touch."
"I stopped begging the night you left me to die in the mud," I replied coldly. "Now, the only thing I want from you is to see how much territory you'll lose before I'm finished with you."

His hand wrapped around my throat in claim, as he pinned me against the cold stone wall.
“You’re mine,” he growled, his breath hot against my lips. “Every breath and every heartbeat you take. Mine.”
But his nephew’s voice echoed in my mind: “You deserve better than a man who treats you like furniture.”
I never wanted this bond.
Alpha Zane forced me into a contract marriage—bear him an heir, then disappear. He made it clear I’m nothing more than a child-bearing vessel. A servant elevated to Luna only because the Moon Goddess cursed us both.
But his nephew, Kaius, sees me differently. He’s kind where Zane is cruel. Gentle where Zane is possessive. He offers me everything my mate hides from me: respect, partnership, freedom.
The problem? My body responds to Zane’s dominance even as my heart breaks from his coldness. And the more Kaius shows me what love could look like, the more dangerous this becomes.
Because Zane may not love me—but he’ll destroy anyone who tries to take what’s his.
Even his own family.
Torn between the mate who owns my soul and the man who sees it—which desire will damn me first?

“You’re nothing, Martha—just a wreck I’ll always own,” Nicholas hisses, his words dripping with malice.

Martha Whitmore fled a monster of a husband, only to stumble into a stranger’s bed—drunk, desperate, and drowning in Seattle’s shadows. One night with Garrison Donovan, a billionaire with secrets as dark as hers, was supposed to be her escape. Now the reality of being pregnant threatens to unravel her fragile new start. As Nicholas stalks closer and Garrison’s world of betrayal looms, Martha’s next move could break her—or bind her to a man she barely knows. Will she run again, or face the storm she’s ignited?

Kalani is a college senior with a packed schedule and zero time for dating, partying, or anything remotely fun. But all of that changes on Halloween night when she unwittingly becomes the target of a cruel prank—one that sees her offered up as the vi-r-gi-nal bride of the town’s most infamous legend: the Prince of Darkness.

Convinced it’s nothing more than a ridiculous urban myth, Kalani sets out to prove it wrong. But when the Prince of Darkness himself shows up to claim his bride, her world is turned upside down.

Suddenly, she’s married to a dangerously alluring and mysterious vampire. As she struggles to adjust to her new reality—including the whole undead, immortal wife thing—Kalani realizes that becoming a vampire has awakened an eerie new ability: she can see the dead.

When the ghost of her murdered sister-in-law appears, begging for justice, Kalani is thrust into a deadly mystery that forces her to dig into the shadows of her husband’s past. The deeper she goes, the more she begins to question everything—including the man she’s bound to for eternity.

"So little princess, what do you do for fun?" he asked as he began eating too.
"Nothing much really, but I do love swimming and skydiving a lot, and what about you?" I continued eating my food as I asked.
"I love playing the piano, swimming and…" he drew closer and then licked the stain of food off the side of my lips.
"And of course, looking at my gorgeous wife." He smiled softly.
I couldn't help but blush, so I just faced my food, he didn't move from that spot, and just kept watching me until I was done.
I finished my meal and was about to get up, and then he suddenly dragged me to his chair and carried me up on his lap.
"Now, where do you think you're going, huh? I patiently waited for you to be done with your meal, so it's time for mine," He whispered in my ear, gliding his hands up my legs.

"The condoms. You think I wouldn't figure it out? You tampered with them."
Her voice was brittle, her eyes filled with a contempt that could have flayed me alive.
I didn't deny it. I couldn't even muster the pretense of surprise. She was right. I had punctured them. Methodically. Deliberately.
I sat on the edge of the bed, the smoke from my cigarette curling into the tense air. "I don't regret it," I said, my voice rough.
"You're insane," she whispered, backing away until she hit the wall. "You trapped me."
"I kept you," I corrected, standing up and closing the distance between us. She trembled, but not from cold. It was pure, raw fear. "I tried everything else to make you stay, Elena. Money, gifts, threats... nothing worked. You were always looking at the door. Always looking for him."
I reached out, trapping her between my arms against the cold plaster. "So I gave you a reason to stay that you can't run from."
Her hand moved instinctively to her flat stomach. "I haven't decided if I'm keeping it."
The air in the room dropped ten degrees. I grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at the darkness swirling in my eyes. "That is my child, Elena. And you will never, ever take him away from me."
