Chapter 1
Could this day be any more boring? I’m flipping through channels, but nothing catches my eye. It’s Friday night, and I’m home alone.
My parents went to a party and won’t be home until very late. I have two sisters on the other side of the country, already starting their lives.
Murry is 24, owns her own bakeshop, and lives with her fiancé.
Anne is 22, just started her first job at an accounting firm, and is dating a guy from work.
Then there’s me. I’m 17, still living with my parents because the law won’t let me move out yet. Oh—and did I mention I’m single?
Yeah, I know I’m pretty. My mom reminds me every day, like she’s trying to reassure me someone will come along. Not that I’m in a rush. I mean, I say
I like being single… but okay, fine. That’s a lie.
Truth is, I’m confused. Sexually.
When I was around 14 or 15, I used to gush over guys in school—just your typical teenager crushing on the most popular guy in class. That all changed when I met Kate. She had just transferred and didn’t really have any friends.
She was stunning—dirty blonde hair always braided over her left shoulder, a few strands loose on the other side that made her look so effortlessly innocent. Her blue eyes melted me every time she looked at me. And her lips… I used to wonder how they’d taste.
Until that night.
We were drunk—well, I was. I confessed everything. That I liked her, that it hurt seeing her date other people. And then I did it. I kissed her.
Her lips were soft and sweet, and in that moment, everything stopped spinning. It was like time itself froze.
But then she pushed me away.
I’ll never forget the look in her eyes—hatred. Disgust.
After that night, she never spoke to me again. I begged her to talk, to let me explain. I told her I never meant to make things weird, that I couldn’t control how I felt, that I’d do anything to go back and fix it so we could still be friends.
But nothing. She ignored me. Pretended I didn’t exist.
It broke my heart. I honestly didn’t think I’d ever get over it.
So yeah… I’m still confused.
I’ve had a few flings since then. Dated guys, trying to convince myself it was just a phase. Just hormones. Just curiosity.
I picked up my phone and texted my friend Sam.
Dude, any plans for tonight? Bored like hell.
A few minutes later, ping.
Yeah, killing myself. I’m with my folks at a Bible study. Wanna come?
I half-smiled and replied:
Naahh, I feel better now!
Then added three LOL emojis for good measure.
I tossed my phone to the side of my bed and wondered what to do next. Then my stomach growled.
Great. Now I’m hungry.
Definitely not in the mood to cook. I threw on my hoodie and headed out to the diner.
Just thinking about a cheeseburger and strawberry milkshake made my mouth water—and my pace quicken.
When I got there, I slid onto a stool at the counter and ordered.
“Cheeseburger and strawberry milkshake, please.”
“Comin’ right up!” the woman behind the counter chirped.
Once my order arrived, I devoured it like it was the most important thing in the world. I finished in no time, pulled some cash from my pocket, and left it beside the plate.
On the way back to my building, I noticed a woman struggling with a heavy box by her car. It looked like it weighed a ton. I rushed over to help.
“Hey, let me help you with that,” I offered, grabbing the box from the other side.
Our hands touched. Hers was soft. And I swear—I felt something. Like a jolt of electricity.
I leaned over to see her face, and suddenly I was hyper-aware of everything. She was beautiful. Like… actually breathtaking.
Before I could say anything dumb, she smiled and said, “Thank you.”
And my heart stopped at the sound of her voice.
“I moved into this building a couple of days ago. I’m Emma,” she added.
I tried to return the smile and look normal, but I’m pretty sure it came out weird when I croaked, “Hello,” with a voice crack straight out of puberty.
I cleared my throat quickly.
“H-Hi. I’m Jen. I live here too.” Seriously? I stuttered?
She smiled again and pointed out where to set the box. Her apartment was right next to mine. Now I remembered my mom mentioning a new neighbor. I hadn’t paid much attention.
“Would you like something to drink?” she asked once we’d set the box down.
“A glass of water would be great,” I replied.
“Okay, wait here.”
I looked around while she went to the kitchen. Her place was already nicely furnished—like she’d been living there for months. Must’ve had help decorating.
She returned with the water. And damn—she looked even better up close. Wavy brown hair, hazel eyes, soft pink lips. She was probably around 22, maybe 25. Shorter than me, around 5’4", while I’m 5’7". And her body? Let’s just say everything was where it should be.
I must’ve stared a little too long because she cleared her throat and brought me back to reality.
“I-I’m sorry,” I stammered. “My mom didn't tell me staring is rude.” What the hell is wrong with me?
She laughed—and it was like music.
“I like your place,” I said, trying to change the subject. “Looks great for someone who just moved in.”
She smiled. “My sister helped decorate it.”
“Oh, I see,” was all I could think to say. “Anyway, I should get going. You probably still have a lot to unpack.”
“Okay,” she said, then hesitated. “But, um, you’re welcome to come by anytime—if you’re bored or just want company.”
Wait. What?
She must’ve seen the shock on my face, because she added quickly, “Only if you want to, I mean—we’re neighbors, after all.”
“I’d love that, Em. Can I call you Em?”
“Of course. My friends do,” she said with another smile.
“Bye, Em.”
“Bye, Jen.”

Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?

A PRINCESS IN DISGUISE; BOUND TO THE ENEMY KING
I fell to my knees, the cold marble digging into my skin. I had studied for years in the flickering candlelight, memorizing every herb and poison to pass the healer's exam. I wanted freedom. I wanted to save my mother from the servant's quarters. I placed second. I thought I had won my life back.
But the King didn't give me a badge of honor. He gave me a death sentence.
"Raven Thorne shall be wed to the King of Grok," he announced, his voice echoing in the silent hall. Princess Ellie, the woman who had tormented me for years, slapped her hands over her mouth to hide her cruel laughter. She was supposed to marry the Beast. Now, I was the lamb being sent to the slaughter in her place.
They say King Liam drinks the blood of his enemies. They say he is more monster than man. And now, I have to walk into his bedroom, wearing the Princess's silk gown, and pray he doesn't tear me apart.
I looked at the King, tears streaming down my face. "I'll do it," I whispered, my voice trembling. "But my mother must be safe."
I sold my body and soul to a monster to save her. But when the carriage door opened and I finally looked into the Beast's golden eyes, I realized the terrifying truth...
He wasn't a stranger. He was the man I met in the woods.
Reborn: My Biased Brothers Beg Me To Come Back
She genuinely took in Regina, the butler's daughter, only to be constantly manipulated by this cunning and manipulative woman.
Regina gradually stole the love from her three brothers.
Arabella was forced to give Regina blood transfusions time and again, her weight plummeting to a mere eighty-eight pounds.
Ultimately, under the relentless pressure from her brothers, she jumped out of a window in despair and died. Her last words were,
"What about Regina's blood transfusions?"
When she opened her eyes again, Arabella found herself reborn three years earlier—the very day Regina appeared at her doorstep crying, begging for help.
Looking at the pitiful, tearful girl before her, Arabella smiled.
No more soft-heartedness.
No more groveling.
Instead, she "kindly" arranged for Regina to move into the servants' quarters, to earn her own living through honest labor.
Faced with her brothers who sided with her, she no longer bothered to please them.
And towards her former fiancé, Theodore, whom she had once fawned over, she remained cold, distant, and indifferent.
Moreover, in this life, they would discover that her identity was far more than just the eldest daughter of the Oberon family.
After the Affair: Falling into a Billionaire's Arms
I’d appreciate all your support, thank you so much!
From first crush to wedding vows, George Capulet and I had been inseparable. But in our seventh year of marriage, he began an affair with his secretary.
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
