The third, it finally went through.
"Elena, you've been struck off the Castellano family. Hear me clearly: even i...

I hid my massive crush on Nolan Mercer for fifteen years. I wasn't his dream girl, so I kept my mouth shut.

Then a "Romance System" popped into my head and locked me in as his true love.

Game on. I stopped playing the nice girl. I forced him to marry me, and basically kept him trapped in my bed every chance I got.

Nolan despised me for it. I didn't care. I figured the System forced him to play...

The morning of our wedding, Dante Russo led the hit that wiped out my family.
Branded a traitor, stripped of my name, I spent three years scrubbing blood from dog kennels at the docks. I lost my hands, my music, and three babies I never got to hold.

On my birthday, my fiancé pushed me off a yacht to make another woman laugh.
Miles Hart was Boston's most notorious heir. I had loved him for three years. I had said yes when he proposed.
I nearly drowned as a child. And he knew I was terrified of deep water. I had told him I didn't want a birthday party at sea — he talked me into it anyway.
I had trusted him enough to step aboard. Even when I saw...

I was Sophie Langley, the only daughter of a modestly wealthy family.
Then I married Harrison Whitmore, the heir to a Manhattan dynasty.

Conveniently, my favorite hobby was spending it.
The black card never declined. The couture nev...

It broke my heart to watch him work construction all day and deliver food all night. So after three days in bed, I took a servin...

I could have exposed him with one sentence. I didn't.

Then he asked me to eat faster. She wanted de...

After one night with the man I'd secretly loved, I told him how I felt.
His response was simple. "What made you think sleeping with me would make me want you?"

Then my roommate, Vanessa, was hospitalized with a high fever.
Her boyfriend drove through the night to see her...

In my first life, Alpha Damon Hawthorne rescued me, made me his mate, and poisoned me.

When I woke in the forest years earlier, I remembered enough to change one thing: this time, I would get my friend Selene to safety, let him find her, and leave.

He chose her. I asked for my freedom.

Then he broke my betrothal to another man and told me I had always been his.

My husband locked me in a suitcase to punish me for frightening his childhood sweetheart. He said I could come out when I apologized. By the time his assistant warned him about the smell, our baby and I were already dead. But Adrian still expected me to crawl out and beg for forgiveness—and I was trapped beside him, watching.

My reward for my father dying for the Alpha? A guaranteed forced bond with one of his two sons.

I chose the golden child, Ronan—and paid for it with my life.

Reborn on the day of the ceremony, I didn't hesitate. I pointed straight at Darius, the terrifying outcast brother everyone warned me about.

To hell with Ronan and his fairy tales.

But there's one sick twist I didn't see coming: Ronan re...

On the night we celebrated my acceptance to MIT, my boyfriend's female best friend crashed her car while driving drunk.

My boyfriend grabbed my hand to stop me from calling the cops. "Just say you were behind the wheel," he pleaded, dropping his voice. "Take the fall for her."

It was like this every single time.

Because I was independent and strong, I was the one who had to be sacrificed. I was...

"Crawling to the end of this red carpet is exactly fifty steps. Bark like a dog, and it's ten thousand a step."

Alex, holding a cigar between his fingers, contemptuously slapped the check against my face. "Five hundred thousand. That should be enough to cure that bastard you gave birth to, right?"

Amidst the roaring laughter of the celebrities filling the room, I did not retort.
Meeting the disg...

In my last life, I needed five million dollars to pay for my mother’s treatment. So I signed a three-year marriage contract with Everett and became the Mrs. Thorne everyone envied.

She came back the day we buried my mother.

The day I was diagnosed with terminal cancer, ...

At my Mating Ceremony, the pack's newly appointed Chief Forger ripped the sacred collar from my neck for all to see.
"Your bland scent is entirely unworthy of such an ancient artifact."
She gripped the metal shears, flashing me a provocative smirk.
"The Alpha gave me permission to follow my inspiration whenever it strikes. I cut it, but I’ll forge you a new one later. Consider it a mating gift."
G...

I stared at their forced, plastic smiles.
I watched the imposter daughter eyeing ...

A blizzard night. My car broke down in the middle of nowhere, and my legs had already lost all feeling.

With purple, cracked fingers, I dialed my fiancé, Silas.

Through the phone came the cozy crackle of a fireplace, and the sweet giggles of the fake heiress, Stella.

"Silas... save me... Route 82..." I gasped, my voice fading.

"Harper, this jealousy game makes me sick," he snapped. "Stella onl...

You're right. I expanded your line without being asked — that was my mistake.

Here's the corrected version, keeping your line tight and matched in length:

I died for the mate bond.

Never again.

Now, standing alive in the packhouse, I stared at the man I ...

For six years, my mother Isolde believed I had committed an unforgivable sin. Under the guise of "reforming my character," she continuously injected me with neurotoxic antibiotics, confining me to a wheelchair to act as a crippled companion to my sister, Alondra.
My entire family silently condoned this punishment, favoring my sister who was merely faking her paralysis. I had long since surrendered...

He sneered and locked the front door: "Do whatever you want with her. She is alre...

I thought there might still be a trace of warmth left in this tangled affair.

"Thank God. The Whitmore bloodline can finally stop being dragged down by you."

Those were my mother-in-law's last words at the divorce signing.

Here's the thing: I'm not supposed to be here. My half-blind, gambling-addicted father ...

That was Caleb's first sentence to me on our five-year anniversary. His black Maybach idled at the curb. Paige stood closely behind him, wiping her tear-stained face. She had just climbed out of his passenger seat; I was just holding the two Nova VIP passes that took a miracle to score.

"She needs a distraction," Caleb added, fully expec...

Nineteen times. That's how many times Elliot had walked out on me while we planned our wedding.

Standing in the bridal shop, he didn't even bother to sound sorry. "Cecilia, it's Vivienne. Another panic attack. She's alone—it's not safe. I have to get to her."

Margaux, my biological mother, shot me that look. "Your sister is suffocating, and you want to make this about a dress? Be the bigger pers...

Three years ago, I caught Kael holding Layla in his arms.
Layla was pressed against his chest, her arms wrapped around his waist.
Kael saw me. His arms stiffened for an instant, but he didn't let go.

I was abou...

I was the daughter the Sterling family never wanted.

For twenty years, I lived as a Sterling.

Twenty years believing I was the cherished daughter of one of the most powerful families in the city.

Until their real daughter came back.

Overnight, everything I thought belonged to me was taken away.

My name.

My home.

My family.

Even the man I was supposed to marry.

Worse, I was drugged, framed...

I was five months pregnant, carrying lunch to my husband, when a conversation between two young women around the corner drifted into my ears.
"I still don't get why he married her. Now she’s nothing but a glorified housewife, waddling around with that massive bump just to bring him his meals. She doesn't deserve a guy like him."
"Hey, are you seriously into your own professor? He’s married. You’re...
