Introduction
They called me the priceless treasure in the palms of my father and my husband.
I was the most precious pregnant woman in the whole Copper Valley.
But before Christmas, when I went to give my husband a surprise, I saw him kissing the cheek of Angela, the daughter of my father's lover.
His friends praised his high-handed means, athat he could actually persuade me to have a fake marriage with him.
"Fake marriage?" I frowned.
Edward told them, "Lucy has everything. Angela has been a bastard for more than twenty years. I should compensate."
I left the club in despair and then replied to the mysterious text message on my phone.
[I can accept you as the nominal father of my child.]
Chapter 1
On Christmas Eve, snow fell lazily over Copper Valley.
Inside the Patterson Family villa, servants were carefully hanging the last golden star on the Christmas tree.
"Mrs. Parker, Mr. Parker will be over the moon when he sees the gift you prepared yourself," the nanny Connie said with envy in her eyes. "Everyone in Copper Valley knows that Mr. Parker and Mr. Patterson spoil you like you're their most precious treasure."
I stroked the delicate, deep blue velvet box in my hands. Inside lay an antique watch I'd spent three months tracking down, along with a prenatal checkup report.
I planned to give the child's father a surprise.
To tell him the baby was doing well, growing strong, and would soon meet us.
My phone buzzed. Facebook was full of friends' wishes: "Merry Christmas, Lucy, another day of being spoiled by Edward!"
I smiled, replied "Merry Christmas," then grabbed my car keys and drove to the Blooming Flowers Club without telling anyone.
Edward said he had business tonight and wouldn't be back soon.
But I couldn't wait any longer—couldn't wait to show him what our child looked like now.
On the VIP terrace at the top floor of the club, the cold wind cut through the air.
I pulled my coat tighter. Just as I turned the corner, my feet seemed nailed to the ground.
Under the dim wall lamp, the man I'd loved for three years was pressing a woman against the railing.
His slender fingers ran through the woman's hair as they kissed passionately, with an attitude even more cherishing than when he was with me.
The woman turned her face slightly. In the lamplight, I saw clearly who it was—Angela.
Angela, the daughter of Audrey, the mistress who drove my mother to her death. My half-sister!
Blood rushed to my head instantly. The velvet box in my hands felt burning hot.
Just as I was about to rush out and confront them, the private room door opened. Several of Edward's childhood friends walked out, cigarettes in hand, completely unsurprised by the scene.
"Well, well, Mr. Parker, you really know how to play the game." His friend Leon blew out a smoke ring, his eyes suggestively moving between the two. "Mr. Patterson just brought Audrey into the family, and you've already got Angela under your wing. This mother-daughter duo from the Patterson family—both taken by you. We're truly envious of this good fortune, man."
Angela shyly buried herself in Edward's arms, not daring to look up.
Edward didn't push her away. Instead, he smiled indulgently, his voice carrying a tenderness I'd never heard before. "Angela had a rough time abroad. Naturally, I need to take extra care of her."
Another person sighed. "Bro, you're something else. Last time I saw Lucy, you'd kissed her until she was practically dizzy. No wonder you got her pregnant so quickly without having to take responsibility."
"Of course, Edward's that good," another person lowered his voice, his tone full of mockery. "But you're really bold, setting up this kind of scheme to help Angela get back the Patterson Family fortune."
"Who would've thought that last year's wedding of the century in Copper Valley was actually a fake marriage between you and that naive fool Lucy?"
"Lucy looks down on illegitimate daughters the most, yet her own child is about to become illegitimate too."
That sentence was colder than the flying snow, instantly freezing my heartbeat.
Fake marriage?
I gripped the gift in my hands, my whole body ice-cold.
What does it mean... fake marriage?

Taste of Fate: The Vampire King's Human Mate
He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.

My Billionaire Husband's Secret
He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.
He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.
But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.
Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.

From that day on, my life filled with shadows.
I suspected my husband of having an affair.
When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.
I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.
My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."
The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"
I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.
But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.
Does Lucas truly love me?
And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?

Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.
Love's Deadly Equation
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.

I tell myself it's purely political. I tell myself his heart is mine.
Until tonight.

But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...

My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody.
