Introduction
"You like him that much?" he grits out, eyes blazing. "Do you have any idea how crazy I've been all these years?"
"Let me be your lover," he whispers. "Let me stay by your side."
As if my heart isn't already a mess, a little voice pipes up—
"Mister, do you like my mommy? Will you be my daddy?"
Chapter 1
"Scarlett, you're up."
Scarlett Collins was in the middle of handling a scandal involving one of her artists when she was called.
The artist's career had just started to pick up, and now she was determined to publicly announce her relationship amidst the scandal.
Scarlett was livid and took a moment to calm her down, telling her not to act impulsively.
Scarlett put away her phone and turned around. Sebastian Black was leaning against the bar, waiting for her.
Today was her engagement party with Sebastian, the youngest son of the Black family.
The notorious playboy heir of the Black family was now engaged to the most famous beauty in Phoenix City. The tabloids weren't the only ones going wild; Sebastian's friends were equally shocked.
After the engagement party, a group of people decided to keep the celebration going with a party at the Black Mansion.
But it was too hot outside, so they ended up playing pool indoors.
They were curious to see how genuine the engagement was and to understand what kind of charm Scarlett had to captivate Sebastian.
Scarlett brushed her hair back and walked over to Sebastian. She stood on tiptoe, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "I don't know how to play..."
Her voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.
Predictably, the crowd started teasing, "Come on, teach Scarlett! Watching her struggle is making me anxious."
Sebastian laughed and cursed, "Shut up!"
His shirt was unbuttoned at the top, giving him a casual look. He raised an eyebrow at Scarlett, "Of course, I'll teach you."
A fake engagement, just for show.
This was Scarlett's most important business deal at the moment.
Sebastian stood behind Scarlett, who was wearing a fitted gown for the engagement, accentuating her curves.
He adjusted her grip on the cue and then placed his hand over hers.
The close proximity inevitably led to some physical contact.
It seemed a bit intimate.
Just as Sebastian was about to step back, the door suddenly opened, and everyone turned to look.
A tall man entered. His suit was impeccably tailored, and the dim lighting gave him a golden glow.
He was strikingly handsome, with sharp features and slightly narrowed eyes, as if he was assessing something.
When Scarlett saw him, her heart skipped a beat.
Why was he here?
Sebastian's voice was filled with surprise, "Uncle, you're back!"
"Sorry, my flight was delayed. I missed your engagement party," the man responded casually, his eyes fixed on Scarlett before he nonchalantly walked over to the sofa.
Sebastian realized he hadn't introduced them, so he pulled Scarlett over, "This is my fiancée, Scarlett. Scarlett, this is my uncle."
'Alexander King.'
Scarlett added silently.
The sudden reunion left Scarlett unprepared. She never expected Alexander to be related to Sebastian. If she had known, she would never have agreed to this deal.
Money can be earned again, but Alexander was someone she couldn't even bear to look at.
After all.
She had kept Alexander as her sugar baby for two years.
And she had ended the arrangement unilaterally, claiming she was bored.
Scarlett's head throbbed from the complicated relationship.
Seeing her silence, Sebastian explained, "Uncle Alexander, Scarlett is a bit shy."
Shy?
Alexander raised an eyebrow, "Really? She didn't seem shy just now."
Referring to the pool game.
Scarlett's molars ached. Was he still holding a grudge?
Although their breakup had been unpleasant, Scarlett felt she had done her best.
It had been three years; why was he still concerned about his former sugar mama?
Scarlett didn't want to confront Alexander directly but couldn't remain silent.
She smiled sweetly at him, "Sebastian, I didn't realize Alexander was so old-fashioned."
The crowd gasped.
Scarlett must be crazy!
This was Alexander!
She had the guts to mock Alexander!
After her retort, Scarlett didn't feel relieved; instead, she felt irritated and suffocated.
She brushed her hair back and said weakly, "I'm going outside for some air."
Sebastian was relieved. He feared his fake fiancée and Alexander might start a fight.
Their first meeting was already tense, and Sebastian was bewildered. It was best if one of them left.
As soon as Scarlett left, Sebastian received a call from Emma Lawson.
Whatever was said, Sebastian hurried upstairs after the call.
His friends exchanged knowing looks, guessing the reason.
They were familiar with Emma, a celebrity Sebastian had recently started dating. Things were sweet between them.
It seemed Scarlett didn't hold much importance in Sebastian's heart.
Before heading upstairs, Sebastian remembered something and glanced at the group, then addressed Alexander.
"Uncle Alexander, I have an urgent matter. If Scarlett wants to leave, please arrange for someone to take her home."
Alexander remained silent.
He didn't refuse, just stared at his whiskey glass.
Someone questioned, "Isn't it bad for Sebastian to leave Scarlett right after the engagement party? What if his father finds out..."
Another replied, "Don't you know Sebastian? He's just looking for a temporary thrill."
Alexander listened to the conversation, quickly piecing together Sebastian's ten-year history of flings.
So, she liked someone like him?
Alexander downed his whiskey in one gulp and stood up.
Outside, the wisteria was in full bloom, cascading like waves.
Scarlett leaned against the window, her long blonde hair blowing in the wind, revealing her slender waist.
She picked a flower and took a deep breath before heading to the upstairs bathroom.
Scarlett stared at herself in the mirror, thinking she needed to leave immediately.
She turned to go down the stairs when a large hand suddenly grabbed her waist and pulled her into a nearby room.
A robbery?
The room was dimly lit, and Scarlett couldn't see the person's face. Instinctively, she bit the hand covering her mouth.
Hard. The person let out a muffled groan.
They both froze.
Scarlett recognized the voice.
She pretended not to notice, but the voice spoke again, "Scarlett, after all this time, you still hate me."
"Sorry, I didn't know it was you. But anyone would resist in that situation."
Alexander looked down at Scarlett, mocking, "Really?"
She was about to respond when a sound came from the other side of the wall, like a man comforting a woman.
Scarlett felt awkward. She knew these people.
Her newly engaged fiancé, Sebastian.
And his actual girlfriend, Emma.
So, Alexander had brought her here to hear this?
"What do you want?"
Alexander's voice was low, "To help you, and to stop you from marrying into the Black family. After all, a woman like you isn't worth..."
Scarlett sighed inwardly. Sure, he hated her and didn't want to see her marry into the Black family.
This was a deal between her and Sebastian. She never intended to marry him, but she didn't plan to tell Alexander. She would honor the contract.
"So what."
"Sebastian is engaged to me."
Scarlett felt the gaze on her suddenly heat up.
"You really like him?"

Mated To My Nemesis
Agnes Tremaine arrived in Melbourne with a camera but no backstory in this world. She was meant to document one season. She never realized she was already the blueprint — that the connections, the open doors, and the meticulous arrangements were all built specifically for her, tailored and designed to use her.
Ace had a nine-year revenge in the making. A journalist had destroyed his sister's life and left no fingerprints. Now the man's daughter was standing in his garage with a camera, and Ace had been the one to open the door.
His wolf chooses a mate he never wanted and couldn't shake — not in the paddock, not on the track, not even at 200mph where nothing else had ever followed him before.
For the first time in his life, he couldn't have it all.
Moonfire: Betrayed By The Alpha
Alpha Caden Blackwell believed those words would break me. That after three years of marriage marked by silence, humiliation, and quiet rejection, I would fear a life without him.
I did once.
As the Luna of the Shadowcrest Pack, I gave everything to a man my wolf recognized as her mate, enduring whispers, cold stares, and a pack that never truly accepted me. I stayed because I believed love required endurance. Because I believed patience would one day be rewarded.
That belief shattered the night Caden welcomed his former lover back into our home, along with a child he claimed as his heir. It ended the moment his choices nearly cost me my life and the life of one of my unborn pups. Leaving was no longer a matter of pride. It was survival.
Caden does not know the woman who walked away. He still sees the Luna who waited, who forgave, who loved without limits. He does not see Nova Ashton, a woman capable of rebuilding her identity and claiming a future on her own terms.
I will never crawl back.
Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
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.
Fated to the Enemy: The Alpha's Witch Bride
My touch tames his inner beast.

As a holy witch, I shouldn't be sneaking out for Zuri—a cursed shape-shifter from a rival clan.
But our forbidden heat is intoxicating.
When his monstrous Primal breaks free, slaughtering everything in its path, even his fiercest warriors cower.
I don't.
I walk straight to the blood-soaked beast, press my body against his, and tame him with a single, desperate embrace.
There’s just one problem: his clan betrothed him to a Shaman’s daughter.
I tell myself it's purely political. I tell myself his heart is mine.
Until tonight.
He sneaks into the woods for me. We share a deep, hungry kiss under the moonlight.
But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...
Is a fresh, undeniable bite mark.

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.
