Introduction
But five years into the marriage, I was caged like an animal by my husband and his mistress. My final memory before death was being forced to watch them fuck right in front of me.
When I opened my eyes again, I had been reborn. I was back at the very moment the engagement was being announced.
Henry gazed at me tenderly. 'Marry me,' he asked.
Suddenly, the young Mafia Don pulled me back against his chest. He leveled his gun straight at Henry and answered for me:
'She refuses.'"
Chapter 1
Elizabeth Windsor had been locked in a cold, damp basement for five years by Henry Aiden and his mistress, Vivian Brown.
The single lightbulb only flickered to life when they came to humiliate her, casting harsh shadows over her emaciated frame.
Long gone was the radiant beauty she had once been. Chronic malnutrition and relentless psychological torture had reduced her to little more than a hollow shell.
Whenever Henry and Vivian worked themselves up, they would perform their depraved "sex show" right in front of her. And when they finished, the insults would come, "Elizabeth, look at yourself now. Where's all that Windsor Family heiress glamour you used to have?"
"A used-up slut who spread her legs for some random guy—you think you're worthy of being my wife? If it weren't for your grandfather's fortune, I wouldn't waste a single glance on trash like you!"
Vivian, completely naked except for the massive diamond on her finger, extended her hand toward Elizabeth with a cold smile. "Elizabeth, see this? Henry just bought me this new ring. Isn't it gorgeous? He says only I deserve this kind of fire and brilliance. That dead grandfather of yours left behind some really nice things. More than enough to keep Henry and me for several lifetimes."
"You... you two will rot in hell!" Elizabeth's voice cracked.
As if sensing Elizabeth didn't have much time left, Vivian decided to be generous with the truth, "Elizabeth, you probably still don't know, do you? That short-lived grandfather of yours? His death wasn't exactly an accident. Daddy tampered with his medication a little."
Elizabeth had thought her heart had turned to stone after enduring starvation, candle burns, and needles shoved under her fingernails. But hearing this news shattered what little remained of her, and she wailed in anguish.
The more she suffered, the wider Vivian's smile grew. "You should've died already. You were supposed to die on that operating table with your bastard baby. But better late than never."
Chaotic footsteps approached. She was dragged out of the basement.
Having been deprived of sunlight for so long, the sudden brightness nearly blinded her instantly.
Her clothes were ripped away. Her wrists burned with a slicing pain. Finally, she was shoved into a bathtub of cold water.
Whether she drowned or bled out, nobody knew. Nobody cared.
In her final moments, Elizabeth's mind drifted back five years—to when Hughes Tudor was still alive, before everything fell apart...
"Elizabeth, I'm talking to you. Are you even listening?"
A stern, impatient voice echoed from above her.
Elizabeth's eyes snapped open. She found herself kneeling in the center of a study, and her father, Charles, was seated behind that massive desk that symbolized his authority.
Beside him stood Sophie Green—the woman who'd been their housekeeper for over a decade but now carried herself like the lady of the house.
This scene... this was the seventh day after Hughes's death!
The moment Charles had forced her to break off her engagement and marry that man!
She'd been reborn! Sent back to this fork in the road that had sealed her fate!
Memories from her past life came flooding back, drenched in blood: On her eighteenth birthday, she'd been drugged. She'd spent a chaotic night with a stranger and ended up pregnant.
Hughes had shielded her from the gossip and scandal.
But the child was declared stillborn at birth. She never even got to see him.
Elizabeth barely survived the difficult labor, and her body paid the price—two long years of recovery.
Not long after, Hughes died suddenly of a heart attack.
Almost immediately, Jacob Smith—the powerful mafia don with overseas influence—proposed a marriage alliance.
At twenty-two, fresh from a family tragedy, Elizabeth had been terrified by Jacob's terrifying reputation. In a panic, she'd clung to her fiancé, Henry, like a lifeline, hoping he'd protect her from this nightmarish marriage.
She'd thought Henry, her childhood sweetheart, was destined to be her lifelong partner.
She hadn't known he was already in league with Charles, Sophie, and Vivian—the housekeeper's daughter Elizabeth had always treated like a sister.
They'd staged everything. Henry's gentle acceptance had been nothing but bait.
Five years of marriage. Five years in a frozen cage.
Henry used her lost virginity and stillborn child as excuses for daily mental and physical abuse, slowly draining every asset Hughes had left her.
And Vivian, she flaunted her affair with Henry right in Elizabeth's face, constantly reminding her of her failure and shame.
Once they'd squeezed out every last drop of value, they staged her suicide.
"The Aiden Family is barely hanging on. Marrying into them will only drag you down." Charles's voice yanked her back from the blood-soaked memories. "I've already arranged your marriage into the Smith Family. Jacob is willing to marry you. This is your fortune—and the Windsor Family's opportunity."
Sophie immediately chimed in with her practiced, syrupy tone, "Charles! How can you do this? Do you know who Jacob is? He's a king of the underworld! A ruthless killer! I've heard he keeps former mercenaries around him—all armed! And he's got a three-year-old son with some unknown mother. They say the kid's strange—doesn't talk, totally withdrawn... If Elizabeth marries into that, she's jumping straight into hell!"
A three-year-old son...
Elizabeth's heart slammed against her ribs.
If her child had lived, he'd be three years old too. A three-year-old child without a mother, living in that kind of environment...
She knew marrying Henry meant repeating the same dead-end path.
But marrying Jacob? That meant stepping into an unknown abyss.
Yet beneath that abyss might lie her only weapon for revenge—and a fragile thread of "what if" she couldn't let go of.
Under Charles's scrutinizing gaze and Sophie's fake concern, Elizabeth slowly lifted her head.
Her face was pale, but her eyes held no tears—only the cold, steely resolve that settled after everything burned away.
"Fine." Her voice was hoarse from her rebirth but crystal clear and firm. "I'll marry him."

The rejected white luna
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.
Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.
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.
