Introduction
For twelve years, we played this dangerous game. By day, I was his obedient foster sister. By night, I was his obsession.
He never went all the way—saving me for marriage, he claimed—but he did everything else. His fingers knew every wet corner of my body. His mouth had tasted my pleasure a thousand times. He groomed me to be the perfect toy for his bed.
"You're mine, Julie. Only mine."
But then Lena came back.
Suddenly, the bedroom door was locked. Suddenly, I heard her screams of pleasure instead of mine.
He didn't touch me anymore. He looked at me with cold, dead eyes and said, "You're just a sister. Stop acting like a jealous lover."
He threw away twelve years of intimacy for a fresh body.
I packed my bags, leaving behind the lingerie he bought me, the toys we used.
When he finally realized Lena was a fake, he came running back, eyes wild, wanting to claim what he thought was still his property.
"Spread your legs for me, Julie," he begged, reaching for me.
I slapped his hand away. "Go fuck your sister, Daniel. I'm done."
Chapter 1
After the Miscarriage, I became the wife my husband wanted.
Two years into our marriage, Aiden Williams and I went from being a loving couple to enemies.
I was Aiden's dream girl. To be worthy of me, he fought his way up from nothing to become the tech mogul he is today.
After my family went bankrupt, he didn't mind my downfall and still married me without hesitation.
I thought it was the beginning of happiness, but after the wedding, he kept having affairs.
I fought with him hysterically. He went from patiently explaining at first to staying out all night now.
I'd long become a joke in our social circle.
Fight after fight has drained away all my feelings.
Walking out of the detention center, I touched my flat stomach, my face calm.
Aiden, since you got what you never deserved, it's time to pay it back with interest.
Seven days ago, when Aiden's mistress saw me, she suddenly lunged at me, and we got into a physical fight.
The police came and took us both away, detaining us for seven days for fighting.
Later, I found out the cops who arrested me were temporary actors Aiden hired, and the detention center was just a set he built, all to keep me quiet for a few days.
But because I didn't get help in time, I had a miscarriage in his fake detention center.
As soon as I walked in, I heard a woman's flirty voice.
Looking over, it was the woman who fought with me, sitting on Aiden's lap.
I pushed open the door and walked in.
"You're back?"
He casually took my hand and waved his other hand dismissively, signaling the woman to leave.
"You can go now."
The woman gave me a challenging look, grabbed her designer coat from the armrest, and slowly walked past me, deliberately bumping into me.
I didn't look at her. My eyes stayed on Aiden.
He was wearing a gray silk shirt today, with two buttons undone at the collar, showing his collarbone.
This Playboy look certainly had the charm to captivate women.
"Good thing you spent a few days in there to learn a lesson. Stop getting into fights with people."
I shifted slightly, avoiding his hand.
His hand met empty air. He laughed coldly, then suddenly grabbed my hair, forcing me to look up.
"Still haven't learned? Still putting on that rich girl act for who? You think you're still the Harrison family heiress from two years ago?"
My scalp burned with tearing pain. I bit my lip to keep from making a sound.
"Speak. Why aren't you speaking?"
He let go of my hair and grabbed my chin instead, squeezing so hard it felt like he'd crush my jawbone.
I looked up at him, my voice flat and emotionless, "Aiden, I had a miscarriage. In the detention center."
He froze for a few seconds, then laughed. His laughter echoed through the empty living room, "What, done making a scene, now you're lying?"
"After all these years of seeing the best doctors, I got you, you never got pregnant. But locked up for a few days, and suddenly you miscarried? Vivian, your lies are getting worse."
He suddenly pushed me down on the couch and leaned over me, one hand around my throat, his tone suggestive but his grip tightening.
"If you really want a baby, we can make one right now."
I couldn't breathe. My vision blurred. Just when I felt like I was suffocating, he let go.
I coughed violently, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
"Why are you crying? It's annoying." He turned his face away in disgust, but his body didn't stop.
When it was over, he quickly got up and went to the bathroom, as if touching me was something dirty.
The sound of running water.
I stared at the ceiling, my hand slowly moving to my still-flat stomach.
He didn't know I'd drugged him. His last chance at having a child was now forever left behind in that detention center.
Aiden took a phone call and left. He didn't say why, and I didn't ask.
Two years ago, the Harrison Group went bankrupt.
I went from being the admired Harrison Group heiress to someone everyone avoided.
My father couldn't handle it and jumped off a building. My mother remarried.
Creditors came knocking. Friends disappeared.
I didn't dare look for Aiden, who had become a tech industry star. Before, he felt he wasn't good enough for me. Now I felt I wasn't good enough for him.
But he came to me on his own, getting down on one knee in front of all his employees to propose.
He said, "Vivian, I love you. Marry me. I'll take care of your family's problems."
The first year after marrying him, he was like the perfect husband, thoughtful and caring, helping me deal with debts.
The second year, in the gap of the passenger seat of his sports car, I found a luxury brand lipstick in a bright color.
I had no income. He only gave me very little money each month.
Even though the lipstick was used, I still couldn't afford it.
I had a huge fight with him. He explained it was left by a client.
Later, there were long hairs on him, unfamiliar perfume scents, dinners with others at romantic restaurants.
Again and again, I fought with him countless times.
He went from panicked explanations at first to complete indifference now, all in less than a year.
When he stormed out once again, when I discovered I was pregnant, I drugged his water.
Since he couldn'tcontrol yourself, I would do it for him.

Kieran Vaughn. Wealthy lawyer, werewolf, and apparently, he thinks I'm his mate.

The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife
The CEO Above My Desk
“I know she does.”
“And what if she doesn’t want this kind of protection?”
“She will,” I say, my voice lowering slightly. “Because she needs a man who can give her the world.”
“And if the world burns?”
My hand tightens subtly at Violet’s waist.
“Then I’ll build her a new one,” I reply. “Even if I have to burn the old one down myself.”
I don’t work for Rowan Ashcroft.
I work beneath him.
From my desk, I decide who gets access to the most ruthless CEO in the city, and who never makes it past the lobby. I manage his time, his silence, his enemies. I keep his world running while my own quietly collapses under unpaid bills, a mother locked in rehab, and a brother who vanished without a goodbye.
Rowan Ashcroft is power wrapped in a tailored suit.
Cold. Untouchable. Merciless.
He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see people, only usefulness.
And for a long time, I was just useful.
Until he started watching.
A shift in his attention is subtle at first. A pause too long. A look that lingers. Orders that pull me closer instead of pushing me away. The man who stands above my desk begins to control more than my schedule, and I realize too late that being noticed by Rowan Ashcroft is far more dangerous than being ignored.
Because men like him don’t crave affection.
They crave possession.
This was supposed to be a job.
Not a test of my limits.
Not a slow, deliberate descent into his authority.
But if Rowan Ashcroft decides I belong under his desk, then so be it.
Survival has a price, and the bills don’t care how I pay them.

Exchanging Vows: The Swapped Wife Is a Top Shaman
Mating Moon
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
