I, Hailey, thought my fated mate would be the one to stand by me, but he rejected me. And now, in the midst of a string of supernatural killings, I'm trapped, kidnapped to aid in the hunt for the murderer.

I've always been a bit of an outcast—hybrid witch-fae—banished from the place I called home. The Twin Crescent Moon wolf pack and my coven had a long history of intertwining, yet their alpha, the one destined to be mine, wanted nothing to do with my unusual psychic powers.

Five long years have passed since his rejection, and now, a witch's life has been taken right in my own neighborhood. Despite my roommate's warnings, I feel compelled to dig into this.

Enough with the parlor tricks I perform at the bar using my visions. This is real, a genuine serial killer targeting witches. And I won't sit idly by.

Then, there's Matteo, my fated mate, swaggering into town with all his pomp, demanding that I use my gifts to solve a murder within his own pack. But I'm done bending to his commands.

Of course, he doesn't take no for an answer. He just shoves me into his car, shutting down any further discussion.

His father's life has been taken, and now he expects me to help, despite the fact that these very powers were the reason he turned his back on me in the first place.

If only I had maced him the moment I saw him.

King Sven laughs again, one hand fondling the breast of the woman on top of him. The pain in my chest becomes unbearable, and I wince. His eyes flicker with something dark and satisfied. He knows exactly what he’s doing. “Spending a week in prison hasn't tamed your tongue, I see,” he says, the teasing edge in his voice making my skin crawl. “I want to take my time with you… savor you to the fullest. I know I’ll enjoy breaking you.”

“You’ll have to kill me first.”

“Who says I won’t?”

—

In a world where Fae are hunted and treated less than an animal, Olivia and her mute twin brother, Kyle, have spent nine years hiding their true identity within the Shadow Moon Pack. Pretending to be lowly Omegas, they blend into the pack, constantly fearing discovery. But when a simple mistake exposes Olivia's Fae heritage to the sadistic Alpha King Sven—a ruthless hybrid known for his hatred of magical beings—their lives spiral into chaos, even worse they discover they're something more.

"William, you've made me suffer for three years, isn't that enough?"
He misunderstood her intentions as unrequited love, indirectly leading to the death of the woman he cherished.
Therefore, he used marriage as a cage, trapping and tormenting her by his side for three years.
Her child, her dreams, her life, all were sacrificed to his hatred...
It wasn't until Emily's love was completely drained that he finally realized his mistake.
Love her until the break of dawn.
With no end in sight.

“We are not meant to do this…” I gasped, breathless under the heat of his kisses.

“It’s not part of the contract.”

“Screw the contract. I want you,” Ethan cut in, passion burning in his eyes. “Right now.”

Ariana Cruz never thought her life would fall apart so fast. Once a celebrated relationship therapist with millions of followers, she had built her career on giving people love advice. But everything came crashing down when her longtime boyfriend exposed her deepest insecurities during a live broadcast. The humiliation went viral. Overnight, Ariana lost her reputation, her career, and the fans who once adored her.

Broke, broken, and desperate to rebuild, she swore never to trust another man. Until Ethan Vale walked into her life.

Ethan wasn’t just any man. He was the billionaire CEO of Vale Resorts. Powerful, arrogant, and one of her harshest critics. Their paths should never have crossed again, but fate had other plans. One reckless night of drinks and pent-up anger led to a scandalous one-night stand. When the tabloids got wind of it, Ethan made her an offer she couldn’t refuse.

A contract marriage. One year. No strings attached.

Ariana knows she should walk away. Ethan is dangerous, unpredictable, and controlling. But she signs the deal, believing she can keep her heart out of it.

She was wrong.

Now she’s caught in a storm of jealousy, betrayal, and sabotage. An ex who won’t let go, a rival who wants her ruined, and a family secret that could shatter everything she thought she knew.

The biggest danger of all isn’t the contract or the enemies circling them. It’s the way her heart betrays her every time Ethan touches her.

Is he her captor… or the only man she has ever truly loved?

On her Eighteenth birthday, Laura discovers her fated mate is none other than her best friend- The Alpha's son. But instead of love, she finds betrayal; he rejects her, instead, claiming her perfect twin sister as his Luna.

Humiliated, heartbroken and tired of the repeated mocks and scorns from the pack, she runs away and is killed in an accident orchestrated by her sister.

Everyone believes she died.

But she survives, coming back years later, no as th twin everyone mocked and detested, but as a radiant deadly power warrior with a status that shakes the world.

Soon enough, she's torn between revenge and desire, the dangerous pull of a bond she thought had been broken years ago.

ALTHEA

My adoptive father sold me.

One moment, I was standing on an auction block, waiting for another cruel fate to claim me. The next, I belonged to the most feared ruler in the continent—the Dragon King of Cinderpeak.

King Rhazien is arrogant, possessive, terrifyingly powerful, and far too handsome for a man who looks at people as if they are problems to be solved.

He says he bought me because he needed a wife.

I know better.

Kings do not purchase women for companionship. They purchase them for convenience.

But the longer I remain in Cinderpeak, the harder it becomes to ignore the strange things happening to me.

And when dangerous secrets about my past begin to surface, they realize I am no ordinary human.

I am something far worse.

Something kingdoms would kill to possess.

RHAZIEN

My first wife tried to slit my throat while I slept.

I killed her before she could succeed.

Since then, I've trusted no woman, no promise, and certainly no marriage.

Unfortunately, my late father's final decree left me little choice. If I wished to keep my throne, I needed a queen.

So I bought one.

A quiet human girl seemed harmless enough. She wasn't.

The more I watch Althea, the more impossible she becomes. Flowers bloom around her. Magic answers her call. Enemies begin circling her like vultures.

And the worst part? I find myself caring.

Far more than I should.

Now my family wants her. My enemies want her. An entire kingdom would gladly spill blood to claim what I've sworn to protect.

They think she's my weakness. They're wrong.

Because anyone foolish enough to touch my wife will learn exactly why dragons are feared.

And I will burn kingdoms to the ground before I let her be taken from me.

As she reached the steps of her apartment building, a soft, melodic laugh echoed behind her. Aria spun around, but the street was empty. Only the lingering scent of wild roses and the fading notes of an impossible song hinted at the presence that had been there moments before.

"Once upon a time,

In a Land not so far away,

They would commit a heinous crime,

Against the Queen of Hidden Fae..."

Daphne Myrh has always been considered the most beautiful of her sisters, maybe even, of the entire village. When her father is sentenced to death, Daphne's love for her sisters will push her into the palace. She will offer her own life, for her fathers.

Ash has been living in the palace for twenty years awaiting an opportunity to enact his revenge on the old human king. Posing as a human for as long as he has, is getting boring until he meets the kingdom's hidden beauty. The farmer's daughter. The moment he sees her, he knows that she is the one. The key to his vengeance. The perfect tribute sparking an act of war and unleashing a terrible magic upon the mortal realm.

There are three phases needed to conjure this madness.

I. Find a beautiful mortal to enchant the king.

II. Impregnate the tribute with Royal Blood.

III. Sacrifice her on the Ninth Moon of her pregnancy.

The only thing this plan doesn't call for...

Is for the girl to fall in love with her killer. And for the killer, to fall in love with her.

He was Hollywood’s untouchable king—until she stopped begging for a seat at his table.
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. He burned the hoodie her best friend gave her. Replaced her furniture with a single velvet chair. Slid a diamond collar around her neck and called it an engagement ring.
Lyara is supposed to smile for the cameras and whisper “I love you” in his ear. But the girl from nowhere has teeth. Every time he pushes, she pushes back harder.
He says he wants to own her. She says he’ll never break her.
In this twisted game of obsession and power, the line between hate and hunger is about to ignite. And neither of them is ready for how hot the fire will burn.

Nine and a half million followers. Penthouse in LA. More money than I ever dreamed possible.
I built my empire teaching people to transform themselves, to become beautiful despite their scars. What I never told them was why I needed to learn that skill in the first place.
Then she slides into my DMs: "OMG ScarlettGlow! We went to high school together! Your biggest fan here!"
Madison Blackwell. The golden girl who made my teenage years hell.
She has no clue that ScarlettGlow is actually Scarlett Murphy—the "nobody" she tortured until I disappeared senior year. Now she's broke, desperate, and literally begging me for attention.
I'm staring at her across this overpriced Beverly Hills restaurant, watching her panic over an eight-hundred-dollar guest fee while I casually pull out my black Amex.
The girl who once said I'd never amount to anything is now desperately trying to impress me.
Should I tell her who I really am?

"You dare touch my mate!? You should not have touched what is MINE."
"My King, I didn't know she was you..your mate!" my attacker stutters out. I don't need to see his aura to feel the very real fear permeate the air.

*****Velvet was left in the mortal world and has no idea what her true identity is. Her power is limited in the mortal realm.

The Fae King is slowly going mad, he needs to find the other half of his soul but where could she be? King Axe rules the Fae realm. In this realm, all males must find their mates or they lose themselves to madness.

Lucia was destined to spend her life with Kaden; everyone knew it as a fact. Yet, on the day of the mating ritual, he chose another woman to be his Luna, instead of his predestined mate.

Feeling rejected and humiliated, Lucia resolved to leave. The only problem was that despite not wanting her, Kaden refused to let her go. He claimed he would rather die than watch her walk away.

A mysterious man who has entered her life became her second-chance mate, will he be strong enough to protect her from Kaden's irrational behavior? Is he truly a better option? Will Lucia find acceptance in her new home?

Hidden all her life in the slums of Emberveil, Aerith has one rule: never let the dragons see her eyes. Fae are extinct, hunted, burned, and erased from the kingdom. Or so everyone believes. But on the night of her eighteenth birthday, when her forbidden magic stirs awake and her grandmother falls deathly ill, Aerith breaks the one rule meant to keep her safe. She enters the royal dragon pharmacy… and collides with a werewolf princess who drags her straight to the dungeon. There, in the deepest shadows of the palace, the youngest dragon prince sees her glowing eyes and instantly knows what she is. A fae. A secret the entire kingdom would kill for. What would be her fate? Another dead Fae? Or the Last Dragon's Fae Queen?

“Prince? Dickhead? Asshole? Or stalker?” A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips. “Maybe I should show you the one title I want you to use.” Before I could react, his hand closed around my chin, tilting my face up. His lips crashed into mine, hard, claiming, breath-stealing. When he finally pulled back, his voice was a rough whisper against my lips. “You could call me yours… because you are mine.”

“I would never choose you.”
He leaned closer, so close she could feel the warmth of his breath brushing her cheek, could feel the danger that lay beneath the calm.
“You already did, Haven,” he whispered, almost reverently, “The moment you looked at me… and lived. And I will do anything to keep you safe. Including burning down the entire continent.”
..
They say the rains only fall without end when the Dragon King descends from the skies and claims his bride.

Haven despises him for ripping her from everything she’s ever known. She fights him with every breath, every curse, every act of defiance.

Yet the fire between them burns hotter than her hatred, drawing her helplessly toward the very monster she swore to destroy.

When strange powers awaken inside her and haunting visions flood her dreams, Haven learns the devastating truth: she is the lost daughter of the last fae princess — and the prophesied Fae Queen destined to either save or doom the realm.

She is the only fae in over a thousand years to master the forbidden elements beyond earth. With this rare and deadly power awakening, she holds the key to taming the ancient magic threatening to devour the world.

But as dark forces gather and the seal containing catastrophic destruction begins to fracture, Haven faces an impossible choice:

Master the volatile magic that could save the realm… at the risk of it consuming her from within.

Or surrender to the Dragon King she has unwillingly come to love… and watch the world crumble.

One girl. One forbidden prophecy. One love powerful enough to either end everything , or give rise to a new era.

I thought the worst thing that could happen to me was discovering my boyfriend didn’t love me anymore.

Then a nightmare creature tried to kill me in a dark New York alley.

The only person who believed what I saw was Alexander Sterling—my impossibly wealthy, terrifyingly handsome boss. One touch from him should have erased my memory. Instead, it revealed a secret hidden beneath my skin and shattered everything I thought I knew about myself.

Because Alexander isn’t human.

He’s a Fae Prince. Five hundred years old. Powerful enough to command ancient magic, rule a hidden kingdom, and make even monsters fear his name.

And according to him, I’m the key to a prophecy that could tear apart the barrier between the human world and the Fae realm.

Overnight, my ordinary life disappears. I’m forced into Alexander’s enchanted estate, surrounded by winged warriors, talking gargoyles, deadly court politics, and magic I can barely control. The Fae Council wants me eliminated before my power awakens.

Alexander refuses to let that happen.

The cold, ruthless prince who intimidates judges, billionaires, and supernatural creatures alike becomes my protector, my teacher…and the one man capable of making my heart race with a single glance.

The closer we grow, the more impossible it becomes to ignore the sparks between us. But every stolen touch awakens something ancient, something dangerous. A bond neither of us fully understands.

If I fail to master the power inside me, two worlds could fall.

And if I surrender to the prince who swears I belong to him?

I might lose my heart long before I lose my life.

My mother had told me a story about a war that happened on Earth between realms eight hundred years ago. According to her, this war broke out because the dragons, being the strongest, wanted to be the ruling realm across the whole earth, and the other species refused to be under them.

The dragons being so destructive was bound to destroy every other species that were against them ruling, be it lycans, werewolves, vampires, humans, faes, elves, griffins, and many others. But the goddess mother of the fae sealed the Dragon Sovereign, who was the mightiest of the dragons, the oldest among species, under the ground.

Since then, dragons have stopped existing on Earth.

A year after the war, my clan was prosecuted for a traitorous act against the fae realm, and were being executed every four weeks, until now that my brother was the only one they thought remained in the clan, then there was the powerless me whom they don't know about and could never save herself from danger, regardless, I was a fae.

Now I'm in a dilemma while trying to save my brother from being slaughtered, and this is because I awakened the Dragon Sovereign who had been sealed under the ground for eight hundred years.

Aurelia, princess of the Light Fae Clan, sacrificed everything to save Caleb, a young noble cursed with blood plague. She fed him her golden life‑blood, bound herself with a silence spell to hide imperial secrets, and swore to protect him forever—even if it cost her freedom.
Blinded by false accusations and manipulated by a cruel dark witch, Caleb turned on the woman who gave him life. He chained her with deadly cold iron, tore out her Life Core, imprisoned her in a freezing basement, and watched his beloved’s younger brother die by his own hand.
When Aurelia unleashes the forbidden stardust self‑destruction curse and fades into glowing ashes, Caleb finally uncovers the terrible truth. Drowning in endless regret and self‑loathing, he embarks on a brutal path of atonement—punishing the witch, saving the last surviving Fae, and torturing himself for years.
But some sins can never be washed away.Some saviors never return.And the noble who killed his Fae savior will pay with his life.

My poverty is a line item in their
budget. My body is a punchline in
their halls. And the king of this icy
empire? He's my boss's son.
Anya's full-ride scholarship to
Kingswood Academy is her ticket
out. But it comes with a price: the
relentless cruelty of the elite, led by
Levi Thorne—hockey god, billionaire heir, and the architect of her daily
hell.

Her only refuge is her
paycheck, the one that keeps the
lights on at home.

The brutal irony? She earns it by
cleaning his family's mansion.
The bullying follows her there, a
smirk in the marble halls.

She survives by counting the days until graduation, until one vicious prank by Levi's ex goes too far. Waking up in the hospital, Anya expects more taunts. Instead, she finds Levi—furious, guilt-ridden, and fiercely protective.

The boy who wrote the checks for
her pain is now cashing them on his
own conscience. His "sorry" isn't
just a word; it's a revolution.

He's calling off his friends, guarding her path, and looking at her like she's
the prize, not the punchline.

But in a world built on labels, can
the "fat scholarship girl" ever
believe the love of the "golden
hockey puck"? Or will the final
check she writes be on her own heart to save it from breaking?

"Fuck a whale like that? Dude, I'd need a goddamn forklift to dig through the rolls and find the hole. You could pay me a thousand bucks and I still wouldn't touch it. This isn't a date—this is a fear factor challenge."
Three months ago, those words boomed through the speakers at the frat party, filling every corner of the house.
That night, I was the joke. The fattest pig in their twisted little hunting game.
Three months later, I'm at the podium running for student body president. My waist dropped from 38 inches to 24, and this custom suit fits like a weapon.
Down below, the same people who laughed are staring up at me now. And that asshole who needed the forklift? He's face-down in the dirt like a kicked dog, waiting for me to end him.
My name is Leona. This isn't some crying fat girl's diary anymore. This is how I crushed every bastard who ever stepped on me—and clawed my way to the crown with blood and sweat.

I sacrificed ten years of my life in prison for Alaric. I burned my hand in a raging fire, just to save our four-year-old son.
Yet the family I saved abandoned me. My husband favored his scheming stepmother. My own son called me dirty, rejecting his birth mother. To humiliate me, Alaric even bet half a million on my dignity.
Tired of endless humiliation, I chose to leave the cold father and son who broke me completely.
Just as I fell into despair, my childhood sweetheart—now a powerful CEO—returned. He swore to guard me closely, making up for all the warmth I had lost.

At minus sixty degrees Celsius, my girlfriend of three years and my childhood friend teamed up to push me out of the bomb shelter and beat me to death in the snowstorm.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back fifteen days before the extreme cold arrived, and my phone had a new "Doomsday Farm" app.

Rapidly growing mutant crops and an infinitely large, temperature-controlled warehouse became my biggest trump card for rebirth.

Faced with two people who came with luggage under the pretense of "accompanying me" but actually plotted to seize the property rights of my underground research institute, I calmly turned them away, sold all my properties in the city, and headed straight for the suburbs with a huge sum of money.

Within fifteen days, I welded the abandoned research institute into a heavily insulated steel fortress.

When the epic cold wave arrived ahead of schedule, those who had betrayed me were trapped in an old apartment without water or gas, tearing each other apart over a tattered quilt.

I'm sitting in a 20-degree underground farm, eating hot stewed beef, drinking hand-drip coffee, and quietly watching them on the monitor slowly turn into ice sculptures.

In this life, having let go of my desire to help others, I simply want to live comfortably in this Ice Age.

Imagine being forced to marry a stranger.

Reina's only ever known her family's sunny farm. She can bake bread, mend a fence, and wrangle a goat but she’s never seen a skyscraper or used a subway. Her whole world changes when her grandfather’s old promise lands her in a penthouse with her new fiancé, Orion who looks at her like she’s a mud stain on his expensive shoe.

He’s a wealthy city prince who hates that he’s stuck with a country girl. She’s a whirlwind of chaos who invades his space, breaks his things and has no idea how stunning she is.

He’s counting down the days until he can send her home. She’s just trying to survive the city without embarrassing herself. There’s just one problem: the more she drives him crazy, the less he wants her to leave and the more he wonders if her kind of crazy is exactly what he needs.

But can a girl who talks to goats ever fit into his glittering world? And what happens when the simple farm girl starts to see the lonely man behind the money and decides to heal him, whether he likes it or not?

His fingers traced down my side, slow and teasing, until he reached my thigh, he gripped it hard and lifted it higher around his waist, the change in angle had me gasping as I felt the hard nudge of his very hard and well sized shaft.
"You're sensitive, " he murmured, his voice thick with satisfaction.
I wanted to give a reply, show him I was still in control but damn it, he moved and he pushed that little monster inside me with deliberate, frustrating slowness and it was like the room tilted.
"Oh my……"

The day Emilia lost everything, she met a mysterious man who she ended up having a passionate night with, but it only left her longing for more.
Little did she know, her forced wedding was about to bring them together again.
But this time, as brother-in-law and sister-in-law. Torn between duty and desire, Emilia must decide: resist the attraction or give in to her heart's desire.

"I have a mate," I said.
"Is that so?" Alaric's gaze narrowed. He leaned closer, his breath fanning my nose and all I could think was to kiss him.
"Yes, and that’s not you," I pushed back my urges as I whispered. Why couldn’t it be him?
A feral growl left his lips as he pulled me closer, "You’re MINE!"

Derek has one goal: survive high school without drawing too much attention or pissing off his pack’s alpha.

As the youngest son of the alpha, his life is governed by lycan hierarchy, tradition, and politics. With no signs of awakening a lycan spirit, his only value is what he can do for the pack’s image. He knows he’s only ever one misstep away from exile… or worse.

Then, he finds a boy trapped in a locker on orientation day, and everything changes.

Derek shouldn’t want Nikolias. He’s off-limits. A risk Derek can’t afford.

So why does it feel like he’s the only thing worth fighting for?

Nikolias has just lost everything: his parents, his home, and any sense of peace. Sent back to the town his family left years ago to live with his prejudiced and controlling uncle, who wants nothing to do with anything—or anyone—not human, he’s trying to do everything in his power to get out quickly.

But then he meets Derek again, and all of his plans vanish in the soft, yearning flecks of gold in Derek’s green-hazel eyes. He’s drawn to Derek in a way that’s impossible to deny, and he thinks Derek feels the same way, despite the danger their relationship holds for him.

As Moonshadow's politics turn deadly, Derek and Nikolai are caught in the crossfire of a war that had started long before they were born, and their bond becomes a threat and a lifeline that neither can afford to sever.

Because the heart wants what it wants….

And it never asks permission.

No dragon surrenders his treasure without a fight—and no witch ever forgives her trespassers.

Kaelra survived ten brutal years on the western frontier after her father cast her out for a crime she still didn’t remember. Instead of breaking, she found peace, freedom away from his cruelty, and hope that she would one day fulfill her mother’s dying wish.

Now, with the frontier all but conquered, her father orders her home to sell her into a claimed mate bond at the end of the Calling: the annual, week-long rite where shifters and witches seek their fated mates.

Kaelra knows his plan will fail. She just never imagined that failure would start in the eyes of Ruhkaal, the Elemental Dragon King of Fire and the Southern Crown Prince of the Moongrave Empire.

She is the daughter of his enemy and his only salvation.

Cursed and running out of time, Ruhkaal will stop at nothing to have the one who speaks to his soul and soothes the wretched curse threatening to consume him.

As old and new enemies conspire to bring the decades-long enmity between the Empire and the Southern Clan Council to a head, Kaelra and Ruhkaal’s bond could unite the southern continent…

Or burn it to ash.

Book 1 of The Brightest Flame Series (Torc and Brand Universe)

How long would you wait for the one you were fated to love?
And how many lifetimes would you live to find your way back to them?

Penelope was only fifteen when she offered her soul to her fated beloved, binding their souls in sacred vowfire. When he left for war, she knew that so long as their fire burned, he would return to her.

For fifteen years, Penelope ruled her island kingdom, holding off the droves of suitors from the surrounding islands and the mainland who sought her throne. Her people whispered that she was stubborn. Unyielding. Cursed. And she let them believe that and kept her eyes on the horizon, waiting for him to return.

Their fire burned on, and her faith remained unwavering.

Until the day she died, and the trap she’d laid sprang, giving her the chance to turn back the clock and chart a new course for the war that stole everything from her.

But she is not the only one who has come back in time, nor is she the first, and there is much more at stake than her fated love and the future that had been stolen from them.

Goddess bless her blood-stained path.

TW: Graphic Violence, War, Mentioned Child Abuse

Lydia has always tried to play by the rules: work hard, be honest, get good grades, and good things will come. For the most part, it’s gotten her far. She’s entering her senior year at Aegis and is on track to get her brother a decent lawyer and out of prison, while their grandfather is still well enough.

Soon after catching her boyfriend fucking her mentor, the Fortuna Nike informs her of the rules and conditions of her scholarship that weren’t even hidden in the fine print: an arranged marriage with whatever member they choose.

If she complies, her brother’s freedom is guaranteed. It should be an easy decision, but the thought leaves her shaking with dread.

Just as she resigns herself to the demands of the Fortuna Nike, Dorian Knox, a well-known playboy of the Fortuna Centurions, approaches her with a mutually beneficial—if insulting—offer: pretend to date him and bypass the Society’s matchmaking.

Unfortunately, Dorian is also the asshole who got her fired.


Dorian knows what he looks like, what he drinks like, what he fucks like, and most importantly, what he plays like. He revels in every wild party and vicious check into the boards as it’s the closest he’ll ever get to telling the Society to fuck off.

After his center’s high school sweetheart romance falls apart, the Society decides that Dorian needs a rebrand to help manage the fallout of the Centurions’ image. Threatened with losing everything he’s worked for and the freedom of his younger sister, he decides to play along… to the very letter of the Society’s laws.

He just needs a woman to play at being his girlfriend who won’t catch feelings and will do as she’s told.

The irritatingly no-nonsense maid who sets his blood on fire will have to do.
