When Olivia Willow walked in on her boyfriend and best friend tangled in betrayal on her own bed, her world shattered. Heartbroken and humiliated, she sought refuge in the last place she ever expected—her boss’s luxury penthouse.

What begins as an act of kindness turns into a whirlwind of passion neither of them can resist. Just as Olivia dares to believe in a second chance at love, her ex slithers back, her former best friend threatens scandal, and the man she's falling for makes a very public, very unexpected declaration: she's not just his lover—she's his fiancée.
As emotions spiral and secrets surface, Olivia discovers she's pregnant with Jason's child. With her life in chaos, Jason is determined to protect what’s his—his child, his woman, and their future. But can love really bloom from the ashes of betrayal?
Chapter 1
Olivia
It's funny how life goes sometimes. You meet someone at a certain age, and suddenly your best friends. Doing everything together, sharing secrets, living in the same place, and suddenly sharing a boyfriend. I don't mind sharing, especially with her, we've always shared everything after all. But I never imagine that one day I would share a boyfriend with my best friend one that I loved very much one that she knew that I love to.
Apparently I should have seen the signs, according to my older brother she's always gone after things that I loved. She's always been jealous and manipulative. But the fact that I didn't notice this side of her, as I told my brother, means that she was very good at hiding herself from me. But there is one thing that I can promise she was never always like this, or maybe she's right I've never really paid attention to our friendship. But in my defense she's always been the happiest person that I've known.
Sometimes I envied her. Both of us were from the same financial statuses. We grew up from the same block, but whilst both her parents had jobs I only had a mother who had a job and I had two brothers and they younger sister. But my mother was a powerhouse. There was nothing that she didn't do, she provided for us best she could and we lacked nothing. I may have stretched the truth a bit we are not ready from the same financial status. Because when she left in a double story four bedroom house, our house was a single story with only three bedrooms meaning that my sister and I shed a bedroom and my brothers shared a bedroom too.
The only thing that I regret from our friendship is introducing her to my boyfriend. She and I will never again be friends again no do I want to ever see her again especially after finding her with Mike on my bed. Apparently it was not the first time nor the second nor a third, the only reason that I found out about them or rather found them naked on my bed together was because I had to come back to the apartment for my flash drive.
I couldn't even address them because my boss was waiting for me downstairs in the car. I am a second assistant to Jason Osborne and today I am attending to him because his main assistant Julia Michaelson has been hospitalized. Apparently Jason didn't want to take his first assistant. Honestly, he and I don't see eye to eye on a lot of things, and among those things are my attitude. According to him, I have a bad working attitude, and I don't respect him as my boss. I do respect him, it's just that sometimes he gets on my nerves. And yes I know that is my boss.
But another of the problem that we both have with each other is the sexual tension dance between us. And yes again I know he's my boss. But no one is supposed to be that hot. He Oozes of sexuality. He is a walking sex stick.
Jason is a very good looking guy and I mean hot with capital letters HOT. But he's also a jerk and he is so full of himself that sometimes I ask myself if he thinks that he is the only person on Earth. And I am currently sitting next to him on our way back to the office. My mind is reeling I feel so stupid right now. I've texted my brother telling him what I just witnessed.
Tobias or Toby as we call him is the one that I'm closest to amongst my siblings, he's also the oldest amongst the four of us. As soon as I got back in the car I got my phone out and send him a message telling him what happened. My boss keeps watching me with a side eye but I pay him no attention. I know that I'm not supposed to be doing personal things during work hours but I cannot help myself at this moment.
"Rudy, take us to the house." He suddenly says to his driver, making me look up from my phone. I cannot dispute what he requested of his driver because like he likes to remind me, he is the boss and also this is his car.
I look at him with pleading eyes that we must just go to the office, because right now I would like to lock my self in the bathroom and scream my lungs out and probably cry. Although I don't know what exactly I would be crying for. I've never been one to cry for relationships, of course I loved Mike but crying just because I found him in bed with my best friend is not something that I would do. So I will settle for screaming because I am very angry.
I am angry at myself mostly because I don't know how I did see that those two are fucking. I'm contemplating on asking my boss to give me half the day, so that I can go and chase them out of my flat, it is under my name after all. Or maybe I can just pack my things and just go, find myself another place but this time I'm not going to share it with anybody. After all I've just lost my best friend and my boyfriend at the same time.
I don't realize that I've zoned out until Jason touches my arm and asks me if I'm okay.
"Excuse me?" I ask him back, wondering why he asked me.
"You've been staring at me for a few minutes not saying anything. Are you okay?" He asks again.
"Uhh yeah I'm fine. Can I use your bathroom as soon as we get to your house?" I ask him, suddenly feeling a lot sad than I let myself think.
"Yes sure, we're going to be a while though before we get there. Do you want to stop at a garage maybe?" He asks me.
I suddenly realized that this is the longest conversation we've had without any arguments, besides work. I must really be out of it to not be giving him attitude. I mean he is a nice person when he's not being a nut job.
"No, it's fine, I will wait." I answer him back and look forward hoping that we will remain silent for the rest of the ride.
The rest of the ride to his place is silent is I'd hoped. We seem to be going to the out skirts of California. The ride is at least an hour. We get a small little town, it's not even a town really. Mountain's View, is apparently the name. And just like it's name, it's surrounded by mountains. Jason lives a little further from the town and the rest of the people. The gate of leading to his house opens automatically making me wonder if it has a sensor. His house looks enormous, but I can't even appreciate it's beauty as my mind is set on getting a bit of space to myself.

My Life As A Werewolf
Lexington makes it crystal clear: most new turnlings die before the second full moon, and if she survives, she belongs to his pack. But to Jo, this isn't a terrifying curse—it's the content gold she's been waiting for. She starts documenting her bizarre, terrifying, and surprisingly entertaining supernatural life, determined to make her 'My First Shift' vlog the biggest sensation on VidHub.
Her antics quickly draw the ire of the most powerful being on the continent: Merrick, the lethal and uncompromising Lycan King. He sees her rogue vlogging as a threat to his world’s secrecy, and tasks Lexington with the impossible: bring the feisty new wolf to heel or face the King’s wrath.
Unbeknownst to Jo (and the King himself), Merrick recognizes her as his fated mate—a destiny he has vowed never to accept. As Jo's bright, defiant personality starts to chip away at the sullen, dangerous existence of his pack, the King finds himself helplessly watching her channel, falling a little more in love with the chaotic wolf he's supposed to silence forever.
Jolene's journey is a battle for survival, not just against her shifting body and dangerous Alpha, but against a destiny written by a Lycan King who loves her too much to ever claim her.

Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.
A pack of their own
Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother

Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...

The mafia princess return
His Lethal Obsession
He didn't respond but moved his eyes around the room, scanning the place.
"Wha...what are you doing here?"
His icy blue eyes returned to me, sending shivers down my spine. Then further dropped to my dress and then back to my eyes.
"The shit going on downstairs, what does it mean?" he asked, making my legs as weak as they are eager to flee.
"It's....it my wedding,"
He scoffed darkly. "Excuse me?"
I swallowed. "I am......getting married,"
He let out a humorless laugh, looking away and giving me lesser comfort. He looked at me with a demonic frown.
Terror washed me.
"Every single motherfucker/human being here, be it adult or child, including you, will burn before that happens,"
