Introduction
Now re-given a second chance in life, Emily sworn to deal with those who wronged her and planned to see her enemies begging for mercy on their knees, but just as she continued with her plans, unknown to her, she captured the heart of unattainable man from her past who suddenly set his sight on her.
“You're such a wild fire, and I wondered why you ignored me before” he said in a low alluring voice that stirred up something strange in her.
“But this time, I must capture your heart whether you like it or not”
Chapter 1
The only sounds Emily Charles can hear are the loud, deafening sounds of sirens, screams, and traffic. Everything else seems blurring to her and the only thing she could grab on to was her popped stomach. The air reeked of blood and gasoline.
In the background of the crash, a newscaster's voice rang loudly despite the noise, standing on the other side of the road, speaking with veins popping on his neck.
“ Breaking news from Rich Country Flash News, a flat accident occurred on Milky highway 223. A drunk truck driver crashed into a cab in front, causing it to turn over. The extent of injuries is not yet known, but witnesses say a pregnant woman about to give birth was inside”
Barely conscious, Emily manages to grab her set phone and dials a familiar number.
Just as the call was about to drop, someone picked it up.
A familiar girlish voice responds, “Hello Emily, Victor is in the bathroom and can't come to the phone. What's the matter? Is it urgent?”
At that moment, Emily's heart sank.
It is Susan Callum, of course that bitch!
Always Susan, the beloved adoptive sister of Victor Callum had grown up with, the one who made him neglect her, block her number even on her due date.
With her eyes closed, Emily felt a warm stream beneath her, signaling the life inside her fading. Despite her agony, she begged,
“Help me…Highway 223… save my child and I…” her words were hard to speak, but she tried her best to make Susan hear her well.
The sudden accident had knocked down the barriers on both sides, completely blocking the highway. Cars can't go forward and backward, and the rescue vehicles were trapped outside to get to the incident ground.
The process of deploying a helicopter was too complicated. However, Emily knew that the Callum family had a private chopper. If Victor could send it right away, there was still a chance for hope, a chance she could make it out alive.
“I'm sorry Emily, but Victor is busy with my birthday preparations and can't address this right now. Why don't you wait until tomorrow?” said the voice, sounding naive yet harsh.
Then the line went dead without her responding back.
Emily fell to the ground, the smell of gasoline urging her to escape before the explosion could take place.
But she fell into a sudden acceptance of her fate. In her late moments, she thought about her 24 years, half spent loving a man who didn't love her back.
From the spoiled heiress of the Charles family, she became disgraced and publicly embarrassed by the one man she loved. She had gambled everything of the Charles family property, yet failed to gain even a shed of Victor genius love. She was exhausted and had lost the will to love him again.
This life had taught her about poor judgment and she had promised herself not to make the same mistakes in another life.
“Mrs. Callum, are you really going to wear this pinkish couture to the Mrs. Waylen birthday party? Even though Mr Callum…” Evelyn, the house servant paused, then, gently continued,
“This short dress seems too casual. Maybe try something else?”
After her suggestion, she waited patiently for the woman to react in the mirror.
Having worked for the Callum family for so many years, Evelyn understood Emily's deep love for Victor. To win his approval, Emily carefully matches her lifestyle to his preferences. Emily looked at the familiar reflection staring back at her, her heart suddenly racing.
Wasn't she supposed to be dead? Wasn't the birthday party of Mrs. Waylen four years ago? Could it be that…she had been reborn?
“Mrs. Callum?” Evelyn's pressing voice snapped Emily back to reality.
“Mr Callum will be here to pick you up in an hour. You should get ready! How about this white dress? It seems more elegant”
Emily's eyes sparkled, and a subtle smile appeared on her lips.
This party was organized by the most influential and ancient family in Lunvaria, the Waylen family. On the surface, it seemed like a mere high elite party, but in truth, it was a way families of different ranks had to showcase themselves to the Waylen family.
The Waylen placed a high value on family unity, which was why Victor needed to bring her along. Previously, she had been jealous of Susan for capturing all of Victor's attention. To win him over, she mimicked Susan in every way.
Her careful efforts to please him only made him resent her more.
At the party, Victor had taken her emerald necklace without her permission to please Susan, allowing the latter to fluently use it at the event.
When Emily attempted to take back the necklace, Victor accused her of being jealous, turning her into a mockery foul among the elites.
Given another shot at life, she vowed to recover all that was hers!
Reflecting on her past life, Emily stated calmly “I plan to wear the made to order beige dress. It will complement my emerald necklace beautifully”
After years of imitating Susan, she almost lost sight of her true identity as the dignified lady of the Charles family, brought up with rigid discipline.
It had been foolish of her to vie with the adoptive daughter of a merely affluent family. But this time around, not anymore.
Evelyn, who was taken aback by her lady request said worriedly “But Mr Callum doesn't usually favor such formal outfits, and the emerald necklace, a gift from your grandmother, is not even worn at your wedding ceremony, talk less of a party. Isn't it a bit too grand for an auction?”
“I will fetch the necklace. You sort out the dress” Emily commanded as she rose, disregarding Evelyn's worries. She knew the woman cares about her but she was done trying to please a fool.
“And clear all the dresses in the wardrobe, we are replacing them with new ones” she stated, working her hands on a set of long brownish wardrobe where she kept her jewelry.
Evelyn looked on in astonishment as Emily headed toward the inner room, and paused briefly, but then carried out the orders.
Instead of waiting for Victor to pick her up, Emily took a Lamborghini from the garage and drove directly to the event ground.
The party was hosted at a private estate by the waters.
Under the setting sun, Emily looked stunning in her custom made beige dress. The tailored fit showcased her elegant figures, and her sleek, modern hairstyle paired with refined makeup enhanced her allure. As she handed her car keys to the valet, her phone rang. The caller ID displayed Victor's name, over and over again.
Emily scoffed and upon answering, an angry blasted from the other end, “who gave you the right to take the emerald necklace?”

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.
The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife
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.
MOONLIT CHASE
But no, I had to walk through the park at midnight like an idiot. Now I've seen something I can't unsee—a massive black wolf tearing apart three men, then shifting into the hottest guy I've ever laid eyes on.
Kieran Vaughn. Wealthy lawyer, werewolf, and apparently, he thinks I'm his mate.
Here's the problem: I don't do relationships. I definitely don't do supernatural things. I absolutely don't do rich guys who think they can control my life just because their inner wolf has decided I smell like home.
When hunters start targeting me to get to him, Kieran drags me into his pristine penthouse for "protection." Now I'm living with a man who looks at me like I'm his last meal, whose touch sets my skin on fire, and who's barely holding onto his control.
He says everyone he loves dies. I say that's not my problem except it is because I'm falling for this broken, dangerous man and his beast.
And in his world? Love will get you killed.

Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.

Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.

Three years later, the world is rocked when Dr. Aria Vale, CEO of a revolutionary cybersecurity empire, steps into the spotlight. The mysterious genius who built a billion-dollar company from nothing is none other than Leon's discarded wife, the woman everyone thought was just a pretty ornament.

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.
