Introduction

Harmony found herself staring at no where when her long-time boyfriend suddenly break up with her. She couldn't believe his reason that he woke up one day that he no longer love her anymore. To save her pained ego, she decided to agree with the proposal of Drake, a heir who could only take his inheritance if he would introduce a girlfriend to his grandmother.
However the twish of fate began on the two of them when Drake's grandmother asked Drake to marry Harmony because she didn't believe that they were really in a romantic relationship.

At first Harmony rejected the idea but an unfortunate event happened to her family and she had no choice but to accept Drake's offer. But when she was about to say yes, Paul came back asking for her forgiveness.

Would she continue the charade with Drake or will she find herself going back to Paul's arms?

Chapter 1

"I am sorry. I just woke up one day and I found myself that I don"t feel the same way anymore," Paul said and he couldn"t look into her eyes.

These were the words that suddenly came out from her boyfriend"s lips. It was as if it was real which brought a lot of confusion inside her but she chose to be quiet for a couple of minutes and absorb everything that he had said.

Paul"s eyes looked so sad while he was staring at her. After saying those words, he looked away from her.

Harmony burst out in laughter. Then, she clapped her hands.

Paul's eyebrows were drawn together. Confusion was all over his face.

"You have improved a lot. Is that a line for a new role?" She asked innocently to Paul. She tried to stay calm and relax so her voice wouldn"t sound as if she was affected by her boyfriend"s words. She wanted to think that this was just nothing but a part of his audition piece.

Paul looked at her and he shook his head. He held her shoulders.

"Harmony, listen to me, please," he said in a low voice as he tried to meet her eyes. "I don"t know how to explain it to you but," he paused as if he couldn"t continue whatever he was trying to say.

She started to hear her heart beating so fast while looking at Paul with a lot of questions in her heart. Probably, her boyfriend was just rehearsing the next piece he needed for his audition and she must admit that he was doing good. His words were full of emotions.

Paul loved to be an actor so he always comes to auditions when he"s available.

Harmony faced her with the sadness in her eyes and heart. She wanted to help her boyfriend.

"What do you mean?" She said with her eyebrows knitted together. "Please enlighten me. I couldn"t understand what you were trying to say," she added while she looked directly at Paul.

She couldn"t understand but she felt strange when their eyes locked. She couldn"t explain the emotions that she could see from his eyes, it was as if everything was true.

It took a couple of seconds when Paul reacted to what she said. She saw how Paul"s Adam's apple moved upward and downward. It was as if he was feeling tense because of how their conversation was going.

But wasn"t this just a part of his rehearsal? Why did she suddenly feel different when their eyes met?

"Harmony, I am sorry but this isn"t just a rehearsal. This is what I am feeling right now. I am sorry but I think I am no longer happy with our relationship. I don"t know how it happened and when it happened. Just like I said, there"s just this one day I found out myself that I couldn"t feel the happiness I used to feel when I am with you and I don"t want to hide this to you. I don"t want to act as if nothing has changed on my part and let you believe that everything is fine between us," he said to her and then he bowed his head.

Harmony felt like there was a bucket of cold water that was poured onto her. She wanted to pinch herself thinking that she might just be in a dream and having a nightmare.

She couldn"t tell what was happening whether it was true or just an act. She couldn"t figure out whether Paul"s words were just part of his script or these were all true. She couldn"t believe that the man fell out of love with her. How could that happen?

Her mind was in turmoil.

They had been in a relationship since they were in college. So, what was he talking about? She was shocked and she couldn"t find the right words to say to Paul.

She tried to lift the cup of coffee that they ordered when they arrived earlier at the coffee shop but she accidentally spilled it to herself.

She felt the hot water in her skin. It means, this was reality.

Paul didn"t even bother to help her wipe the coffee that spilled on her. The man let her do it herself.

With trembling hands, she grabbed a tissue on the top of the table and wiped the coffee in her pants.

After she was done, she took a deep breath. She was hoping at the last second, Paul would say that this was just a prank. She was praying that the man was playing a trick on her and everything that was happening was just part of his games.

She swallowed a lump in her throat as she tried to search for the words that she was going to say to her long time boyfriend and soon to be her ex-boyfriend if she wouldn"t be able to fix what"s happening with them.

Harmony cleared her throat. She needed to be brave and make things clear to this man in front of her.

Though she could feel her heart beating so fast, she still wanted to clarify everything at Paul.

She looked into his eyes but she could see that the man couldn"t stand her look and from there, she knew that something was already wrong with her boyfriend.

But before she could even start to speak, Paul opened his mouth and spoke again.

"Harmony, I know that we have been together for almost three years and I am sorry if we will be ending our relationship just like this. I want to be honest to you. To myself. I don"t want to continue this relationship anymore and then both of us would suffer. I don"t want us to fight every day because I could no longer return the love that you have for me. I want to end this as early as now while we still have respect for each other. You have been so good to me and I don"t want to hurt you. I want us to be friends, to be good friends," Paul said which made her dumbfounded.

I woke up three years into a marriage I barely remembered—pregnant with twins that weren't my husband's.

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?

Dear readers, this novel is coming to an end soon. I highly recommend another fantastic story of the same genre:


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."

"You want my forgiveness?" he asked, my voice dropping to a dangerous timbre.

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...

I was supposed to die alone in an alley.

Instead, a god found me.

One moment, I was bleeding beneath the neon glow of the city, my life slipping through my fingers. The next, a glowing blue screen appeared before my eyes, offering me a choice that was never really a choice at all.

Accept the Summoner’s Mark. Or die.

Now I belong to the Death Game — a brutal cosmic system where ordinary people are turned into Players, thrown into impossible missions, and forced to survive horrors designed for the amusement of gods.

Every trial has rules.
Every monster has a weakness.
Every victory comes with a reward.

And every reward makes me less human.

My name is Nerissa Valehart, and I refuse to be anyone’s pawn.

But surviving the Game means trusting the one man everyone warns me to fear.

Veyren Ashford is ruthless, powerful, and dangerously beautiful — a veteran Player with blood on his hands and secrets in his soul. He says attachment will get me killed. He says love is a weakness the Game always punishes.

Yet when death comes for me, Veyren is the one standing between us.

In a world where gods gamble with mortal lives, monsters hunt from the shadows, and desire may be the deadliest weakness of all, I have only one goal:

Survive long enough to cross the board.

And make the Starless God regret choosing me..............
