Detective Adrian has spent years solving murders. He's learned that every crime leaves something behind. No matter how carefully the truth is buried, it always finds a way back to the surface.

So when Daniel Mercer a financial analyst is found dead, Adrian approaches the case like every other investigation. Follow the evidence. Trust the facts.

But this case refuses to follow the rules.
The trail leads to one of the city's most powerful corporations, where old financial records and forgotten charity events begin to reveal a pattern no one seems willing to talk about.

Hidden inside photographs taken years apart is the same unfamiliar face.

The years change. The people change. The world moves on. But one man never does.

The deeper Adrian digs, the more he realizes that this mystery didn't begin with Daniel's murder. It has been waiting for someone to uncover it for a very long time. Others came close. Some gave up. Others never got the chance.

Even a retired detective, a man who once searched for the same answers, had only one warning for Adrian.

Leave the case alone.

But walking away has never been part of Adrian's nature.

Every new discovery draws him deeper into a web of lies, buried secrets, and powerful people determined to keep the past exactly where it belongs. What begins as a murder investigation slowly becomes something bigger than Adrian ever imagined, forcing him to question everything he believes about truth, justice, and the world around him.

Packed with suspense, unexpected twists, and a mystery that grows more unsettling with every chapter, The Slain Man is a gripping investigative thriller that will keep you turning the pages.

Some secrets are hidden for a reason.
The question is whether the truth is worth dying for.

On the eve of her eighteenth birthday, Bella decides to run away from the overprotective life that her pack has forced her to live. She gets thrown into a world that is much bigger than her when she is captured by hunters who use to weaponize her hybrid abilities.

She manages to escape only to fall into the territory of a brooding 1000-year-old exiled alpha who just happens to be her mate. He holds the key to unlocking her hybrid abilities but is reluctant to help her bring an end to the hunters. Despite their connection she decides to return to her pack. But a bond forged by the moon goddess herself can’t be broken so easily.

When war looms around the corner and Bella’s powers begin to consume her, she must turn to her mate who seems to be the only one who can heal her. Will they be able to bring an end to the hunters and maintain the balance or will it be too late?

After all history does have a funny way of repeating itself.

Eve’s perfect life shattered when she discovered her husband Gabriel, a cold billionaire CEO, was having an affair with his secretary, Emily—a desperate single mother. Filing for divorce was the hardest decision of her life.

But just before the ink dried, fate struck: Gabriel suffered a helicopter crash, losing all memory of the affair, the betrayal—and the divorce.

Now Gabriel believes he’s still married to Eve.

Emily, furious at being erased, lashes out. She claims she’s pregnant with Gabriel’s baby and begins a ruthless campaign to destroy Eve’s reputation.

Caught between her broken heart, a bitter rival, and a man who may never remember what he did, Eve must choose:

Revenge, or redemption?

The Torn Vows is a jaw-dropping tale of deception, desire, and the brutal path to true love.

I was dropped at the gates like trash. Broken. Powerless. Alone.

Bloodrose Academy is not a school—it’s a death sentence for the weak. A place ruled by predators in uniforms, where cruelty is currency and alphas reign without mercy.

And I just caught the attention of the worst of them.

The Blackthorn brothers.

Zayne. Rylan. Cassian. Killian.

Four powerful alphas born of blood, brutality, and secrets. They hate me. Mock me. Hurt me. And yet… they can’t stay away.

To them, I’m nothing but the cursed stray. The girl who shouldn’t have survived. The outsider who doesn’t belong in their vicious world.

But fate has a cruel sense of humor.

Because I’m their mate.

And the moment they find out, everything will burn.

Enemies. Fated bonds. Bullying. Lust. Power games.
In Bloodrose, survival isn’t enough.

I’ll either become their obsession…
Or their destruction.

Rhea was nothing—an orphaned omega, forgotten in the shadows of Crescent Shadow Pack. She was bullied, ignored, and born into a world that never wanted her. Her only warmth came from Lyra, the Beta's radiant daughter—a girl Rhea worshipped like the sun, the one blessed by the Moon Goddess herself. Rhea lived for Lyra's light.
Until the Goddess turned her gaze.
On her twentieth birthday, Rhea is thrust into the center of a destiny she never asked for—fated mate to the Alpha's triplet sons. Three brothers, one throne, and a bond that will crown her as Luna.
But only one mate can ascend.
And the others? They may destroy her before they let her choose.
Cassian, the wild heir who once loved Lyra and now hates Rhea for taking her place.
Lucian, the perfect firstborn with ambition in his eyes and loyalty that cuts like a blade.
Dorian, the soft-spoken charmer with a secret fire and a desperate hunger to matter.
As power swells and envy brews, Rhea must rise from the ashes of who she was. The Moon has chosen her, but the pack? They will not kneel easily.
Especially not when her bond pushes Lyra—the sun she once lived for—into shadow.
Will Lyra accept becoming the shadow or will she come back for the light that was hers?
In a world ruled by legacy and ambition, Rhea must decide if she is a girl surviving fate—or a Luna shaping it.

I was the best student, the most obedient, the most compliant—yet the only unloved child in our family.

When my brother got into fights, I took his punishment. When my sister snuck out with boys, I bore the consequences. Mom force-fed me pills and made me get my stomach pumped just to scare my brother away from smoking. Dad dressed ten-year-old me like a prostitute and threw me into a bar to warn my sister against going astray.

In the end, they sold me to a gambler for a few hundred dollars.

I died in a dark pond, and no one heard me calling for help.

But when my spirit drifted home, they were gathered around the dinner table, laughing and talking as if nothing was wrong.

It wasn't until the police knocked on their door that they realized—I had been missing for seven whole days.

Later, my brother clutched the chocolate he never got to give me, crying every day. My sister dreamed every night of ten-year-old me struggling and screaming in that bar. Dad knelt at my grave daily, consumed by guilt. And Mom, after killing that gambler, threw herself into the same pond where I had drowned.

Finally, they loved me.

But I was already dead.

"I curse the day I met you, Ella. I, Brian Wilson, reject you as my mate!"

"The Moon Goddess was definitely blind and senseless when she made you mine." He spat out with irritation

As I heard my mate say those hurtful words to me, my heart burned as I felt my life and dreams crumbling and in the next second, I was pulled into darkness.

My aunt was terrified I'd end up with a human. So she arranged a marriage herself.

The groom? Kael Voss. Alpha heir to the most powerful pack on the East Coast.

I had a Moonstone Mate Necklace custom-made for the occasion. Global commission. A hundred and eighty thousand dollars.

The day I went to pick it up, it was snatched right out of my hands.

The woman who took it? Chloe Hart. Kael's so-called childhood best friend.

She looked me up and down like I was a stray dog that had wandered in off the street.

"A hundred and eighty grand? Sweetheart, you can't even afford the tax."

Then she told me to get on my knees. Right there, in front of the whole store. Scream three times, "I'm a worthless stray Omega and I know my place."

I didn't kneel.

I threw her own words right back in her face and put her on the floor with one kick.

That's when Kael walked in. My fiancé. The man I'd never met until that very moment.

And damn... he was gorgeous.

I'll be honest, I'm shallow. Always have been. That face hit every single thing on my list.

So I walked right up to him, gave him my sweetest smile, and said, "Hi. I'm Judy. Your fiancée."

“You're not doing this on my birthday, are you?” I asked Ethan, my eyes covered in tears as I watched him glare at me with disdain. “You aren't leaving me dejected after sacrificing three whole years of my life with you!”

“And I'm giving you a life to be free, isn't that way better?” he asked in return, stretching the dreadful file towards me. “Consider this a birthday gift and leave. I'm going to specifically make sure you get all the benefits associated with the divorce.”

“You’re...”

“Leave Marinette,” he interrupted mildly. “Leave now and say nothing else. You can have the Ferrari or any of the estates in Paris as part of the compensation. Just go.”


**

Marinette Monroe thought she had found her happily ever after when she married the successful and charismatic Ethan. But five years later, her dream life is unravelling. Her husband’s attention is elsewhere, and his heart seems lost to a ghost from the past—his first love, Veronica Rodriguez.

On what should have been a day of celebration, Marinette’s birthday becomes a nightmare as Ethan comes home late, drunk, and distant. When he hands her divorce papers, her world shatters. Left with no choice but to pick up the pieces, Marinette discovers a strength she never knew she had. As she rebuilds her life and carves out her own success, she becomes someone that even Ethan can't ignore.

But just as Marinette rises to prominence, Ethan realises too late what he has lost. Now, he is desperate to win back the woman he once took for granted. But can he rekindle a flame that he extinguished, or is he too late to mend the heart he broke?

I sold my soul for survival.
One year to belong to the Devil himself — Andrea Luigi. The man who owned the underworld.

He said he wanted a wife for a year.
He didn’t say I’d become his obsession.

But when his brother Marco — the man who once saved me, the man I thought I loved returns, I realize I’m not caught between good and evil.

I’m trapped between two devils…
And one deadly secret that could destroy them all.

Because the night my father died, someone else pulled the trigger — and both brothers are hiding the truth.

"Our worlds cannot be merged together; no matter how much we try, it will be useless. We just have to give up!" Elise's voice shook, though her alpha glare never wavered.
Rory stepped closer, his voice low and guttural. "You think I don't know that? I know it's impossible… I know you can't abandon your people, and I can't abandon mine."
His hand brushed her cheek, eyes blazing. "But that doesn't change the fact that I crave you. Every breath you take pulls me closer, no law or bloodline can stop it. Tell me you don't feel it too… and I'll walk away."


Every year, Elise, the fierce heir to the SilverClaw Pack, walks into the grand mate-gathering hall with hope burning in her chest—only to leave alone. Without a mate, she can never claim the Iron Throne. And this year is no different…
Until a violent storm changes everything.
Stranded on the wrong side of town, Elise crosses paths with Rory, a rough-edged, dangerously handsome rogue leader who's younger, untamed.
He's everything she shouldn't want. Rough where she's refined. A leader of outcasts, branded an enemy to her people. Forbidden.
But fate doesn't care about bloodlines or crowns. The Moon Goddess has other plans.
No law, no tradition, not even bloodlines can break the pull between them. But with packs divided and war brewing in the shadows, choosing Rory could cost Elise her throne… and spark a conflict that might destroy them both.
Torn between duty and an impossible love, Elise must decide: Will she walk away from her destiny… or risk everything for the mate the moon chose for her?

Layla's life has never really felt like her own. Torn away from by the man she truly loves, Layla must choice between duty, desire, and destiny to keep pack, and her son, safe from an evil she didn't expect—

Solomon whispered, “You are my mate, Layla Undertow. I swear this to you and to the Goddess, I will not reject you.” He looked deeply into her eyes, his long black eyelashes holding back tears.

Immediately Layla knew she had crossed a line. “I love you. I am your mate. You felt it the same way I did. There is no magic that could force it. I want you.”

But it didn’t matter anyway, for Anthony did not hear her. He instead clapped his hands and embraced Alistar. “This is good. You have my blessing.”

Alistar winked at her over her father’s shoulder. “She is the mate I have been waiting for my entire life. She is mine.”

I thought the worst betrayal was finding my fiancé in bed with my best friend.

I was wrong.

The worst betrayal was being drugged, bagged, and sold to the highest bidder in a supernatural slave auction.

Now I am standing on a stage in Toronto, surrounded by monsters I did not know existed, while two of the most powerful beings in the supernatural world are tearing the room apart... fighting over me.

Cassian Vale—the ancient Vampire Lord with blood-red eyes and a frozen heart. He looks at me like he knows me, like he has been searching for me across centuries.

Kael Carson —the ruthless Lycan King with golden eyes that promise both protection and destruction. He claims I belong to him, that fate itself has bound us together.

They hate each other. They have been at war for longer than I have been alive.

But they both want me.

But what they both do not know about is my powers and to what extent it could make or break either of them.

"I bought you for three years, Spring. That means 1,095 days. Your body, your soul, and every breath you take belong to me."
To the world, Spring Willow is the luckiest woman alive, married to August Harrington, the billionaire who rules the city.
But to August, she is the woman who killed the only person he ever loved. A murderer dressed in silk. A reminder of the loss he can never forget.
Their marriage is nothing but a contract. Three hundred thousand dollars a month to save her grandmother's life. One hundred rules to remind her she is his possession, not his wife. And the one rule that matters most: never expect his heart.
Spring thought she could endure his hatred. She never expected his cruelty to turn into a dangerous obsession that would bind him to her long after their contract ended.
Then Ashford appears from the shadows, offering what August never has: a choice.
The contract began with revenge and pain, but the truth will decide how it ends. When hatred turns into obsession and possession starts to feel like love, who will Spring choose? The man who owns her, or the man willing to steal her away? Or will she finally choose herself?

Lunar Depletion Syndrome. Seven days.
That was my death countdown. And my Alpha mate Kael was still threatening me, demanding I use the last of my life force to save my sister.
On our third anniversary, he had given me a surgical consent form and dissolution papers as gifts.
How laughable.
Three years ago he had said my eyes sparkled like stars. Three years later he wanted me to close them forever.
They all said I had finally matured, learned the spirit of sacrifice expected of an older sister. The joke was, I hadn't been moved by love.
I was just tired.
Why struggle when death was inevitable?
Rather than dying alone in the wilderness, it was better to die on the operating table and become the perfect sacrifice in their story.

She is the new girl that arrived and caused confusion in Rohan's life, she lives with her aunt and is extremely shy. She is an ordinary human who turns out to be something much more.

Benjamin menzel- he is Rohan's best friend who tried to steal his mate from him because he is jealous of Rohan and secretly in love with Avilla.

Mr. and Mrs. knight- Rohan and Camilla's parents

Mitchell Rolando- he is the human mate of Camilla, he feels a strong pull towards her but is confused on how to handle such emotions.

Stronghold pack- the second most dangerous pack in the lycans kingdom

Melissa Dorian- is the queen bitch in high school that makes life miserable for everyone, she is your typical blonde girl with blue eyes.

Kenneth Norway- he is the jock in school that gets on ben's nerves by stealing his girlfriends.

It started with Rohan finishing the yearly race in his pack and coming first, they went out for a little celebration between the three of them mainly because Camilla wanted to see her mate but Rohan appeared late making Camilla mad at him and promising to get back at him. Her chance came when she tattled to ben that Rohan hates helping him solve his girl problems, which prompted a mini fight between the two. They patched it up when Rohan explained to ben that he was always doing the opposite of whatever he tells him to do making the problem get worse and later turns round to blame him.

Ben was pretty upset because his girlfriend, Melissa was talking to another boy and according to Camilla, she was already sleeping with Kenneth during the time ben was stuck training for the race. He was close to swearing off females and waiting for his mate but he got interrupted when the most beautiful girl came into the café…

Rohan felt the attraction sizzling from across the room but he was too tranced to say anything to his friends, he was too busy ogling the girl to pay attention to what ben was babbling about, he couldn't believe he had a human as a mate but furthermore he could not believe ben called dibs on his girl, he tried so hard to fight the attraction to this human girl but he it didn't work especially when his sister Camilla was having the same problem, the law was preventing them of being with their mate.

Camilla opened up to Rohan after she saw that he was having the same problem as her because she noticed the pull between her brother and the human and she knows the only way he could fight for her was knowing that his sister was in the same dilemma. They talked on the way home to the pack and looked for ways to avoid telling their parents, the choice came down to either telling them or going for a run and they chose the latter. The went to their favorite place since they were kids and Rohan was reminded that no matter how capable Camilla is in handling herself, he was going to make sure his baby sister was happy.

Avilla has tried her best to talk to the cute boy she saw at the coffee shop the other day but he keeps blowing her off like he doesn't even notice her but his best friend the goofy one always seem to be ogling her each time she passes which was very creepy but she figured if she could get close to ben then she could slip into Rohan's life. She wanted to find more about the pull she felt for him but ben seems to be falling in love with his best friend's mate when he was aware of the mate bond. While Rohan searches for a means to be with his mate, ben on the other hand tries to sabotage the process because he wants Avilla all to himself.

Avilla tries to explain to ben that they were just friends and she has always wanted Rohan, while Rohan decides to be happy even though the law forbids it, he starts hanging out with Avilla and slowly she creeps into his heart, deep enough to make him reveal the real him. He was expecting her to be scared and run far away from him but it only seems to draw her close like she has always been part of the supernatural world. It was a relief that she was open minded about him but he still didn't tell her the truth about their love.

...

Rohan knew it was a suicide mission taking on his alpha but it was also a suicide mission to live without your mate and one out of those choices were easier, he was going to do everything within his power to fight for his mate. He treated avilla bad and would always hurt her each time they got closer.

When avilla had enough, she went on a trip and there she met a vampire who claimed her as his mate, spending time with the vampire triggered her vampire side and it became known to her that there are some secrets that she doesn't know.

She is a hybrid, her decision to choose a mate would lead to the never ending war between the wolves and vampires.

I gave my heart to Ethan Cole long before I understood what love truly was.

As my brother's best friend, Ethan was always there. He protected me, fought for me, and made me believe that maybe one day he would see me as more than a kid following him around. For years, I loved him in silence, holding on to a hope I should have let go.

Then one reckless night changed everything.

For a few stolen hours, Ethan made me believe my feelings weren't one-sided. The way he touched me, the way he looked at me, made me think I finally meant something to him. But when morning came, he shattered that illusion with four devastating words.

"You're like a sister to me."

Heartbroken and humiliated, I left town determined to forget him and never look back.

What I didn't know was that fate had something far worse waiting for me.

The mate I was bonded to became my greatest nightmare. The man who was supposed to love and protect me turned my life into a prison of pain, betrayal, and fear. When he murdered our pup, he destroyed the last piece of me that still believed happiness was possible.

Five years later, I return home carrying scars no one can see and secrets I would do anything to keep buried. I expect my brother to be waiting for me at the airport.

Instead, I come face to face with Ethan Cole.

The man who broke my heart.

The man I never truly forgot.

And the moment our eyes meet, I realize the past isn't finished with either of us.

She gave up everything for love—only to be betrayed.

“You can't have us both, Ava.”

In the heart of a place that relishes killing resides the SCV Strip club where Avalyn Monroe works for a living. Ava grew up as ordinary as any other girl but everything changed one night, and that night made way for bigger problems to come.

Welcome to Imperial city, the land where the lawless reign and godless revel. Avalyn's troubles would come in the form of not one, but two dangerous men. An Alpha, and a Godfather. These men, different in every way, have one thing in common. Avalyn. To claim her. To own her. To possess her.

But, how will this work when they aren't willing to share her?

In the delivery room, several nurses pinned me down on the operating table.

They were going to forcibly take my eight-month-old baby out of me.

The pain was tearing me apart. I locked my eyes on my husband Xavier Davis, who was standing to the side, and screamed at him in a hoarse voice.

"You animal! That's your child too. How can you do this to him..."

Xavier stared at me, his face completely blank. He didn't say a single word.

"Hurry up! Mia needs the cord blood!"

Julia, standing next to Xavier, snapped impatiently at the doctor.

She was Xavier's stepmother, only two years older than him. Her husband had died not long after she got pregnant, and Xavier had been taking care of her ever since.

Recently, Julia's one-year-old daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. She needed a newborn's cord blood for a transplant, so she set her sights on my baby.

And Xavier agreed to it. That was when I found out the two of them had been sleeping together for a long time.

Julia had nearly bled to death giving birth to their daughter, and lost any chance of having another child.

"What's going on? Her water already broke. Why isn't the baby coming?" The doctor was sweating with anxiety.

Julia picked up a pair of scissors and handed them to the doctor, her voice completely casual.

"Just cut open her uterus. Then the baby comes out."

My eyes went wide with shock. I shook my head desperately. "No. Please, no..."

In front of the entire pack, Alpha Ethan hurled the words icily: "I reject you as my mate and Luna."
Aria felt as if she’d been struck by a sledgehammer. Those poison-laced words echoed through the crowd, ripping all her dreams to jagged shreds. She clenched her fists until her nails bit into her palms, bit down on her lip until blood stung her tongue，only then did she force out, "I accept." But the wolf howling wildly in her chest screamed, "He’s our mate! How dare he?!" And she vowed, fierce and unshakable: If I ever let weakness take hold again, let my own wolf claws tear me to pieces！


By the time she fled into the forest, she was battered and bleeding, every inch of her screaming with pain. On the very edge of death, she crashed into a scorching, searing embrace...

On the day I died, Roland was rolling in the sheets with his adopted sister, Lavinia.
When the hospital called with my death notice, he scoffed. It was just drawing some blood, how could anyone die from that? He was certain I was just throwing a tantrum again, desperate for his attention.
The day he received my ashes, he personally smashed the wooden urn to the ground. His expensive leather shoes ground my ashes into the floor over and over as he coldly announced he was going to marry Lavinia and throw a grand wedding—the exact wedding I had begged for when I was alive but never got.
It wasn't until the day before their wedding that his assistant, Desmond, rushed in, trembling.
"Sir, it's bad... We pulled the security footage from the hospital, and... the madam's autopsy report."

I am Alice, the only heir to the Vampire King. Which means I had a front-row seat to watching my father cheat on my mother with another woman: the very servant paid to be my personal walking blood-bag.

By the third year of their public affair, my mother was handed a death sentence. Terminal Blood Corruption.

Instead of weeping, she ordered the Royal Enchanter to seal her medical records permanently.

"Lokui, are you insane?" the Enchanter slammed her fists on the desk, furious. "Hiding this from him? Dying in silence just to make a cheating man feel guilty is pathetic!"

My mother didn't blink. She calmly wiped the cursed black blood from her lips before turning to look at me.

"I couldn't care less about his guilt," she smiled, her gaze horrifyingly cold and steady. "I am going to use my corpse to build my daughter an unshakable throne."

I gave him everything.
My heart, my trust, my future. Four years of love, devotion, and blind loyalty. And what did I get in return? Betrayal. Humiliation. Loss.
Simon Smith chose my sister over me… and in that one selfish moment, he shattered my world. He left me broken, alone, and with a secret wound no one could see. My son… gone. My life… thrown into chaos.
But I refuse to let him have the final say. I refuse to be the woman who waits, who cries, who begs for scraps of a love that was never mine to begin with.
Now, it's my turn to reclaim everything. My strength. My freedom. My heart. And one man steady, loyal, and unwavering is about to remind me that love isn't just about giving it's about being valued, truly cherished, and never underestimated.
Some men think they can break a woman and keep her in pieces. Some men think they can betray her and expect her to return. Simon is about to find out the truth: some hearts heal… and some never belong to him again.


"I missed you, Anika."
"I have never seen you before in my life, sir."
"You think you can just leave me and replace me? You are mine!"
"Did your mother not teach you that grabbing random strangers is wrong?"
"Anika…"
"Stay away from me."

On my birthday, my husband ditched me for his "innocent" adopted sister, mocking me as a useless housewife. He has no clue that I, Sophia, am actually "Sue"—the legendary designer his company is desperate to recruit!

Fed up, I slammed the divorce papers on the table, ready to crush his arrogance and expose his sister's lies.

But the moment I stopped caring, this icy CEO lost his mind. He pinned me against the wall, his eyes burning with dark obsession: "Sophia, trying to escape? Over my dead body. Tonight, I’ll show you exactly whose wife you are..."

The day my son called another woman "Mom," I signed the divorce papers and left.

Five years later, now a top scientist, my ex-husband cornered me at a gala. I tried to push him away, but he gripped my waist tighter, his hot breath against my ear sending shivers down my spine.

"Stop pretending," he rasped. "Your body still remembers me."

I scoffed. "Ex-husband, have some dignity."

Just then, my phone rang with my son's desperate sobs. "Mommy! The bad woman hurt me... Please come save me! Daddy said you don't want us anymore..."

I'm Jane—until I discovered my marriage was built on lies.

The hotel penthouse door stood ajar as I approached.

"Your wife is so pathetic," she moaned breathlessly, her voice echoing from inside.

My breath caught as I pushed the door wider, revealing my husband with another woman pressed against the floor-to-ceiling windows, her legs wrapped around his waist as he moved inside her.

"Does she even know how to satisfy you like this?" she gasped, her nails raking down his back.

Lucas gripped her hips harder, his voice rough with desire: "Jane was always just part of the plan. You're the only woman who sets me on fire."

My phone slipped from my trembling hands, exploding against the marble floor like my shattered heart.

This time, I refused to be the victim.

I demanded a divorce—but Lucas had orchestrated every detail to keep me trapped.

Just when despair consumed me, Ethan Quinn appeared like salvation in a thousand-dollar suit

"Get divorced. I'll help you. One condition—marry me," he whispered.

The most powerful man in New York wanted me? A discarded wife?

But as Ethan protected me fiercely and Lucas begged desperately for forgiveness, the shocking truth emerged:

‘Ethan had been searching for me for twenty years.’

‘I was the little girl who once saved him from hell.’


"You pulled me out of that nightmare," Ethan's eyes filled with intensity. "I've spent my life becoming worthy of saving you back."

The scared boy became the most powerful man in the city.

His love wasn't coincidence—it was destiny.

Some people arrive like answered prayers you never knew you were praying...

My name is Evelyn. I grew up in the slums. Now, I'm the wife of Victor De Luca, head of New York's most feared mafia family.
Outsiders say I left him for money when he had nothing, then shamelessly came crawling back once he rose to power.
Only Victor and I know the truth. He paid five million dollars to drag me back, chain me here like a dog, and lock me away.
He married me, trapped me in this estate, and found new ways to break me every day.
He brought his mistress into our bed. He used his power to grind what was left of my dignity into dust.
But there's one thing he doesn't know.
I'm dying.
I have an inherited bone marrow failure disorder. The same disease that drained my mother dry. Now it's my turn.
Five years ago, I took the money and walked away. I let everyone call me every name they wanted because I couldn't make him watch me waste away.
I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid of pain.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
This long, slow torture is almost over.

"You don't always have to say something, you know that, right?" I said, my voice sounding strange in my ears.
"You need to stop talking down on people just to massage your stupid ego!"
The worst thing about suddenly changing schools is the part where you think it's your chance to begin from the top—take life by the reins and navigate it in the direction you've always wanted. That was what Sydney Walker thought when her boyfriend, Chase Monroe, released private pictures of her right before he left the town.
Then a week after, her father is found dead in the cold rain. She was forced to go live in a whole new city with her family which she barely knew, giving her hope that she could start afresh. But news flash: she's still the same plus size, introverted nerd even in her perfect sister's kind of clothes.
And Tyler Sinclair—Lakeview's golden boy, never called it a day if he didn't remind her that she was three times her sister's size, up to their senior year. But the more he punches her in the guts, the more circumstances around her push her to fight back.
But when? And how would she finally square up to the one boy that toxic part of her secretly wants to see every day? And what about Tyler? Are his insults just mere "tease" or is there something going on in his family that no one else knows about?

He left without breathing a word of it to you, and you still believe he's gonna come back? How sure are you?"

I didn't speak, cause I'm not sure..

"What if he doesn't come back until your baby is born? Let's say two years later?"

"I don't know" I shook my head.

Arthur sighed.

"I spoke with my dad before coming here, he said it'll be dangerous for you if you keep it"

Doctor Morris is his dad, I forgot to mention that.

"It's better you abort now, it might cost your life..you know about your cervical condition"

I blinked and looked away from him, my gaze focused on the rain.

"That's all the more reason I shouldn't abort it. Who knows if I'll ever be able to conceive again?"

He didn't say anything after I said those words.. he sighed.

"I told you not to trust college boys, but you paid no attention.. now you've been played" he grumbled.

He opened an umbrella, which I didn't know he was holding.. then led me to his car.

He opened the door for me and I slide into the passenger door, he rushed to the driver's side as I was fastening my seatbelt.

"Whatever your decision is, I'll stand by you!" He said.

OMG! I woke up to discover I'd had a one-night stand with my company's CEO!

By the next day, we were suddenly married. My supervisors and colleagues still think I'm just an ordinary intern, not knowing I've become the CEO's wife overnight.
