Due to poor financial conditions Anna Stark had to marry a crippled old man, Daniel Taylor. Everyone laughed at Anna, but Daniel Taylor appeared gracefully at a party. “Let’s give birth to a child!” “Aren't you disabled?”

"What things are not under your control tonight?" I gave my best smile, leaning against the wall.
He came closer with a dark and hungry expression,
so close,
his hands reached for my face, and he pressed his body against mine.
His mouth took mine eagerly, a little rudely.
His tongue left me breathless.
“If you don't go with me, I'll fuck you right here.” He whispered.

God! At the same time as his words aroused me, they managed to irritate me. Even now, he's still the same bastard, arrogant and bossy as ever, who always wanted things his way.

"Why would I do that?" I asked, feeling my legs weaken.

"I'm sorry if I made you think you had any choice," he said before grabbing my hair and pushing my torso, forcing me to lean over and place my hands on the surface of his desk.

Oh, hell. It made me smile, and made me even wetter. Bryce Forbes was much rougher than I had imagined.

My plans for the summer, spend it in Orlando with my best friend and find inspiration for my new book but also enjoy the break from back home in Scotland. I never planned on meeting anyone because I am not in the place to get involved with anyone, and then he shows up! My best friend's boss. A man desired by many but only gives his attention to a chosen few. A man with eyes so beautiful and bright they would make any woman swoon, including me, but why would he be interested in someone like me? I don't know, but I am proven wrong when he takes a liking to me, and I find myself falling under his spell. He wants me, and he is going to do everything it takes to get me.

He is a possessive man with a dirty mouth and skills I have never encountered. I have never been one to let my hormones and lust take over, but it seems every time Brandon is close or even looks at me, I lose my every sense.

When night falls, desire becomes destiny.
Their story begins.

My fiance cheated on me with my sister, to get back at him, I seduced his hot daddy, hoping he will get used to calling me stepmother...


"Stop this madness, Joanne!"
"Madness?" I asked as I chuckled softly, "Madness!" I yelled, my voice rising in pitch as tears welled up in my eyes. "Madness is fcking my sister behind my back! Madness is thinking you have the fcking right to barge into my house and slap me in the face! That's madness!"
Rylan, my ex fiance, took a step closer, "Don't you think you're being pathetic, chasing after my father out of some childish grudge because I didn't return your feelings? Stop being so fucking petty and acting like a child," he spat, his words like daggers to my heart.
A wave of pain washed over me as I bit my lips. "I don't know what you did to convince my father, but I advise you to stop before you make a fool of yourself," he added, his voice dripping with contempt.
I walked closer to Rylan, "Get used to calling me stepmother, you fcking ashole," I spat.
"And you know what?" I held his collar and pulled him closer to me.
"You are not invited to my wedding."

"Mr. Frost, I dont..."

"Say my name" He interrupted, whispering in my ear

"Please, let me go" I whispered back breathlessly

"Say my name and I will Maya." He demanded but i knew. I knew the minute i give in. I will be ruined. But that thought didn't seem so bad with him so near me. Smelling his masculine scent, feeling his hand roaming up and down my body.

I wanted to give in. I wanted to feel him. I wanted him. So i gave him what he wanted.

"Elijah, please" i whispered.

Violet Lawson thought the worst part of her life was loving a man who never truly saw her.

Married to the cold and ambitious Dave Belmont, she played the role of the quiet, elegant wife for years, until she discovered his affairs, buried under a pile of lies. But instead of crumbling, Violet outplayed him.

She tricked Dave into signing divorce papers he didn’t even bother reading, sealing her freedom behind a well-practiced smile.

Her plan was simple: wait out the final month, walk away with her pride and a payoff, and never look back.

But everything shatters the moment she steps out of the shower and finds Lucien Belmont, Dave’s half-brother, in her bedroom, shirtless, uninvited, and unapologetically amused.

Lucien, the elusive black sheep of the Belmont family. The one she’d only seen three times in all her years with Dave. He’s never around, always drifting from country to country, scandal to scandal, yet somehow, this house that Violet has called hers… belongs to him.

What begins as a tense confrontation turns into a dangerous entanglement. Lucien knows more than he lets on. And the fire between them? It’s not just attraction, it’s trouble. Because while Dave was Mr. Wrong, Lucien might just be worse. Or, he might be exactly what Violet never saw coming.

"Good girl," he moved my panties aside, I felt my face red as a tomato.

"You are so wet for me." He whispered and then ran a finger on my slit feeling how wet I was, making me let out a loud moan.

Looking at them, I could feel my pussy was paining. I put my hand on my pussy, and a lazy moan escaped my mouth.

I was looking at them as now he put his junior in her pussy and pushed her boobs together, making them bigger than before. They seemed so full.

There was no one, so I put my hand inside my skirt and felt the wetness in my panties. I looked up and found him sucking her nipples while fucking her hard…

When I caught the boy I loved for many years having sex with another girl, I completely collapsed.
I never knew that the boy I loved for many years had such a passionate and chaotic private life. Can I still love him?

Aviva~~~

I sat on the ground looking at the sight in front of me.

I cried again and again.

"Why did you leave us?"I screamed to the top of my lungs.

" why us" I screamed a gain this time my lungs felt painful but not compared to my heart.

" why did you have to leave us?"I said in lower tone this time lowering my head and looking down at the grave.

I just couldn't understand life or was it fate?

It took from us the most loved person.

"Why did you have to leave us miserable with no support dad?" I said looking down at his grave.

The grave I was sitting at the moment hopping that my dad could comeback and live happy with us like how we used to be.

Hoping that at least my dad could come and take me to where he went up there

Hoping that when I go back home everything could go back to where they were before my dad died.

Rejected by her fated mate and betrayed by her best friend, Zara thought the worst was over but she was wrong because the most powerful man in the pack who happened to be extremely wealthy and handsome starts watching her with dangerous interest, revenge suddenly becomes very tempting and very forbidden

I said "I do" to a stranger to save my sister's life. Now I'm trapped in a gilded cage with the most dangerous man I've ever met.


Being left at the altar was just the beginning of my worst day. Hours after my fiancé dumped me for his best man, my little sister was rushed to the hospital with a fatal diagnosis. The price to save her? Three million dollars I don't have.

So when I wake up in a stranger's hotel room after a night I can't remember, I'm desperate enough to consider his offer. He's Jayden Smith—a cold, powerful politician on the verge of becoming president. His fiancée has been kidnapped, and he needs a stand-in. Now.

His deal: I pretend to be his wife. I wear the designer gowns, smile for the cameras, and play the doting spouse. In return, he'll pay for my sister's surgery.

The catch: I have to sign a contract that makes me his property. One wrong move, and he'll pull the plug on my sister's life support.

Jayden thinks he's in control. He thinks he owns me.

He says I'm just a transaction. A placeholder until the real bride returns.

He doesn't know that I've already lost everything. And a woman with nothing left to lose is the most dangerous opponent of all.

In a world of politics, power, and deadly secrets, our fake marriage just became the most dangerous game of all.

"What are you doing, Mr. Ward?" the nanny asked, surprised to see the older man standing at the door while she was breastfeeding his child. He was looking at her with such intensity that Lily almost had to look away. She grabbed her blouse and covered her breasts, feeling uneasy as he continued to stare.

"Why are you covering yourself?" he asked casually, approaching her with slow but firm steps. "You don't need to hide; I've seen it before." There was a suggestive tone in his words, and Lily knew she shouldn't be attracted to her own employer.

Lily grew up in an orphanage, never knowing her real parents. After turning eighteen, she chose to stay at the orphanage to help care for the orphaned children who always appeared there, until the day she received a special baby whom she grew fond of.

The father of the child, young heir Garrett Ward, appeared to take back his son but ended up offering Lily a job as the baby's nanny after noticing the strong bond between her and the gentle girl.

Lily committed a great sin by allowing herself to fall in love with the arrogant yet charming Garrett Ward. As time goes on, she begins to uncover truths about the Ward's baby and herself, learning the true nature of her employer: a ruthless man without scruples who manipulates others for his own gain. Amidst secrets and lies, Lily must decide whether Garrett is a friend or foe, but this task becomes difficult as this relentless man stirs her senses.

Dr. Elena Ward saves lives for a living. At home, she cannot even get her husband to come back for their anniversary.

When billionaire Adrian Blackwood returns to the city for a foundation gala, Elena learns about it from everyone except him. Then, in front of donors, cameras, and the woman sitting where she should have been, Elena is asked to move because the front table is "reserved for family."

Elena has been quiet for three years because the Blackwoods promised her access to the sealed file on her parents' fatal crash after the third anniversary of her arranged marriage. Now, three weeks before that file is supposed to open, Adrian's family is erasing her from the room.

So Elena stops being convenient.

She removes her ring, demands the file, and starts the divorce.

What begins as a marriage collapse becomes something far more dangerous. Missing pages, hidden medical charity funds, a child protected by sealed records, trust documents, staged public appearances, and a dead mother's warning all point to the same truth: Elena was not just neglected. She was managed.

Vivian Blackwood made cruelty sound like care. Malcolm Blackwood made control look like governance. The foundation turned need into leverage. And Adrian, who finally wants to help, must face the ugliest fact of all: loving Elena privately never protected her publicly.

Elena does not want revenge that turns her into another Blackwood.

She wants evidence.

She wants her career, her parents' names, her sister's anger, and her own choices back.

But every answer opens a more brutal question. Who benefited from her silence? Why was her mother's warning buried? And if Adrian finally chooses her in public, is that love, guilt, or another door the Blackwoods built for her?

Elena walked into the gala as the wife they forgot to seat.

She will leave the Blackwood marriage as the woman no one gets to move again.

I'm Emily. I used to have everything—until my father's sudden death, my mother's illness, and greedy relatives who stole our fortune. Michael appeared when I needed help most. As the truth about my father's death was uncovered, I needed Michael's help. I used him, but also fell in love with him. What should I do when he discovers the truth?

"I want a divorce, Damian."
"I'm tired," I said. "Of pretending. Of being your wife on paper and invisible in every other way. I don't want to do this anymore."
He stepped closer, his jaw tense. "We had a deal."
"Yes. Three years. It's been three years." I looked up at him, eyes shining but dry. "And not once have you touched me, held me, or looked at me like I was anything more than a roommate with your last name. We've been married for three years, and our contract is over."
Three years of marriage. One contract. Zero kisses.
Lira Hart, Hollywood's rising star and media darling, has spent three long, loveless years married to cold, enigmatic billionaire Damian Blackwood. Their marriage was never about love—it was a business deal between two powerful families.
While the world envied her glamorous last name, Lira knew the truth: Damian never wanted her. Never touched her. Never looked at her like she mattered.
Until the night she asked for a divorce.
Now, the man who once ignored her is suddenly appearing on her film sets, making headlines with possessive kisses, and whispering words that sound dangerously like regret. The husband who locked his heart away is acting like he'll do anything to keep her.
But Lira's heart isn't a game. Not after three years of being invisible in his world.
Can a man who never loved her learn how to fight for her… or is he three years too late?

Someone needs to get the job done, even tho my boss is an asshole, oh, we are working on that for now
