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.

The first time Aura shattered a sacred relic, she was six years old. Her coven never forgave her.

Spells fail in her presence. Magic bends. Candles die the moment she enters a room. For nineteen years, she has survived the fear of her own people by asking no questions — until the night vampires descend from the mountains of Sol Diminium and drag her into the heart of their kingdom.

Hidden within forbidden journals is the truth of her birth: Aura is not simply a witch. She is something the gods never intended to exist.

Now hunted by immortal factions who would rather see her dead than free, Aura finds herself entangled with Xarion Dravenor — the cold, dangerous vampire prince whose cursed body reacts to her in impossible ways. His hunger stills at her touch. His curse… pauses.

He needs her to find a cure for his dying kind. She needs him to reach the one relic that might keep her from burning alive from the inside out. Their alliance is a bargain written in blood and desperation.

But the road east runs through lycan territory, ancient sanctuaries, and a valley overrun by ravenous vampires with no humanity left. Every step draws them deeper into a conspiracy older than the war itself — and closer to a truth that could shatter the balance of the world.

When gods feud, monsters rise. And Aura may be the most terrifying one of all.

In the glittering skyline of Chicago, where fortunes rise as fast as they fall, Laura Castillo has made a career out of heartbreak—literally. As a professional bride, she’s survived by marrying desperate men for money, selling illusions of love with a flawless smile and a perfectly tailored dress. But behind the practiced charm is a woman drowning in emotional debts, haunted by a dying father’s final wish and a parasitic mother’s relentless demands.

When Andy Hayes, billionaire heir to the Hayes empire, offers Laura a six-month marriage contract to secure his inheritance, it seems like just another cold transaction. But Andy is nothing like her previous clients—he’s sharp, dominant, devastatingly attractive, and infuriatingly perceptive. He sees the cracks beneath Laura’s mask. And he’s hiding battle scars of his own.

Their arrangement requires total discretion, shared living space, and a convincing performance for the press. But as cohabitation turns into chemistry, and chemistry ignites into something deeper, both Laura and Andy begin to lose control of a game they thought they’d mastered. Secrets surface. Ghosts from Laura’s past claw back for revenge. And the contract binding them begins to feel a lot like fate.

“This was supposed to be a deal,” Laura whispers, her voice trembling as Andy’s hand cups her jaw.
“It still is,” he murmurs, lips brushing hers. “I’m just changing the terms.”

I stepped into the room and he smiled at me.

That was my first warning.

And just like that, I knew.

He didn’t remember.

Not the marriage. Not the fights. Not the night I begged him to sign the divorce papers.

But then she walked in, Gigi.

And he remembered her.

I stood there, invisible again, while he held her hand and called her name.

He remembered the woman he almost left me for.

But not me...his wife.

"I promise not to touch you until you are begging for it," Leonidas whispers into my ear.
Despite the odd feeling growing between my legs, I scoff loudly. "What makes you think I would allow you to touch me?"
"Just a hunch," he smiles.
His fingers are working nimbly against the fastenings of my gown. Within what feels like seconds, he has stripped me of the gown, and I am left in nothing but the corset and thin undergarments.
He takes a step back to admire his handy work, and a mischievous grin crosses his lips. "That corset looks uncomfortable," he says.
I grind my teeth together, knowing that if I let him remove it, I will be exposed. "It is."
"Do you trust me?" He winks in my direction.
"No," I admit.
"That's a shame," he replies.
He stares at me with a darkened gaze before he scoops me into his arms and lays me properly on the bed.
"Goodnight, Princess," he whispers as he tucks me into bed.
"How many women have you helped out of their dresses," the words fly out of my mouth before I can stop them. And much to my surprise, I sound jealous.
"Now, why would you want to know that?" He smirks.
"I don't know," I reply. "I just do."
Leonidas comes back to the edge of the bed. "More than you could possibly imagine."

"Did you ever, even once, imagine yourself loving me?" Sarah posed a hopeful question to Philip.

“Don’t make me laugh, Sarah. Everything between us has been purely about pleasure and business.”

Sarah had harbored feelings for Philip ever since she first saw him in a sports magazine. When his fiancée abandoned him at the altar to elope with another man, Sarah selflessly offered herself as a replacement bride to spare his embarrassment.

After enduring three years of a loveless and toxic marriage, Sarah finally summoned the courage to divorce Philip, who was still pining for his former fiancée.

She vowed to herself that she would find another man who would love, trust, and worship her like a queen. This is what she sought if she were to marry a second time.

A year later, their paths crossed again. Philip confronted Sarah in a ladies’ restroom, demanding, “Do not let other men touch you!”

Sarah remained indifferent; her demeanor noticeably changed. “And what if I do?” she retorted.

Philip’s tone grew menacing, “You won’t like what I’d do.”

Unfazed, Sarah shot back, “Mr. Cornell, I’ve never liked what you’ve done, even in the past. There’s nothing new about that, and please stop whining like a baby,” before turning and walking away, disdainfully leaving him behind.
