Introduction
It all comes crashing down when someone fabricates a picture of her cheating with Damien’s brother, Adrian. After seeing the pictures, he coldly said. “I want a divorce!”
And even when she confessed her love to him, his reply was cold and hurtful. “I know. It doesn’t matter. I don’t love you.”
What he didn’t know was that in her hand was pregnancy test results from a mistake he made due to his drunken state.
Years later, they both meet at a friend’s wedding and he is shocked to see her with a set of identical twins that looked just like him.
“Are they mine?” He asked.
Harriett laughed and replied. “It doesn’t matter, Damien. They don’t need a father.”
Chapter 1
Harriet’s mind raced with possibilities as she sat in front of her doctor, waiting to hear the results of her pregnancy test, which she had just taken.
“Mrs Daniels. I am happy to inform you that you are three weeks pregnant.” The doctor said with a bright smile, and Harriet let out a breath she didn’t know she was holding.
“Oh!” She breathed out, her heart racing with joy and excitement. With a marriage like her and Damien’s, the last thing she could wish for was a child, but God had other plans for her.
“T-thank you, doctor. Thank you so much.” She cried as she placed her hand on her chest, unable to contain her happiness.
She could not wait to tell her husband, Damien, this great news.
As Harriet hurried to leave the hospital, all she could think about was how this child in her womb would be a turning point for her and Damien’s failing marriage.
As much as she hated to admit it, it was true.
In their three years of marriage, Harriet has never felt the joy of marriage.
What did she expect?
She had always been in love with Damien since childhood, but it was never the case for him. He never looked at her with love and was only with her because of his parents.
As much as she hated to admit, she knew that their marriage was bound to fail, but things might be different now with the child in her womb.
It had to be a miracle.
Harriet entered her car and sat for a while, fiddling with her phone as she dialed Damien’s number. Butterflies swarmed in her tummy, and her face glowed as a bright smile stuck to them.
She waited for a while, but still no response from him. She dropped the phone. It was a weekday, so he must have been loaded with much office work. She was used to making excuses for him, but when she was about to drive off, Damien called her back.
Feeling jittery about telling him, Harriet picked up the call.
“D-damien. H-how are you doing? Are you at the house? I need to tell you something.” She bit her lips nervously and played with her fingers, hoping for a small talk before she told him about her pregnancy, but she should have known not to expect too much from him.
“Where are you? I also have something to tell you: Come home…now.” His tone was low and cold like always, and before she could ask him what the problem was, the line beeped, signifying that he had ended the call.
Harriet felt a tight knot in her chest at his cold behavior.
Why was she even surprised? He had always been this way. Why did she expect him to change suddenly?
She felt tears brimming in her eyes, but she quickly blinked it away. The last thing she wanted was her mood to get ruined after hearing such fantastic news. So, she promptly ignited the car engine and drove off.
Throughout the ride, she wondered what Damien wanted to talk about, as he never paid her much attention.
As she drove in, she noticed that Damien’s car was already parked, meaning he was home.
She took one look at the pregnancy test documents and assured herself that everything would be fine before going into the house.
When she arrived, Damien was seated in the living room with a frown. She had never seen him smile unless he was with his parents or…Evelyn.
All she ever got from him was a frown, scowl, or a look of disgust.
“Damien. When did you get home?” She asked, putting a smile on her face. But she was heartbroken once again, and a harsh glare from Damien greeted her.
Damien stood up from where he sat and approached her. For some reason that she couldn’t understand, his eyes were red with anger.
“I want a divorce!” Her husband, Damien Daniels, towered over her as he yelled, his body shaking in anger.
“W-what are you talking about? A divorce? Why?” Harriet’s voice broke, and her chest tightened, pain enveloping her.
She couldn’t believe her ears. Why was Damien suddenly bringing up a divorce? What had she done?
“Just sign the paper. It is good for both of us.” Damian said coldly.
Harriet didn’t know what could be wrong and she would not end their marriage like that but Damian refused to talk further.
“How could you tell me that without a proper reason? I won’t sign it unless you tell me why.” Harriet was in a breakdown. She was just about to share great news with her husband but things took a dramatic turn suddenly.
“I really want to end this marriage peacefully for the sake of our families’ relationship, but you just won’t let me, right?” said Damien with a sneer.
Damien drew his eyes at her and chuckled darkly, showing his anger. His eyes held nothing but hatred for her.
“You think I wouldn’t find out that you have been sleeping with my brother?” He said.

Taste of Fate: The Vampire King's Human Mate
He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.
He moaned against my throat as he drank, and the sound was devastating.
Pawn of the Starless God
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..............

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."

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.

Four years ago, the Bailey family faced a devastating financial crisis.

Rumors swirled about this enigmatic man—whispers claimed he was hideously ugly and too ashamed to show his face, possibly harboring dark, twisted obsessions.
Without hesitation, the Baileys sacrificed me to protect their precious biological daughter, forcing me to take her place as a pawn in this cold, calculated arrangement.
Luckily, in those four years, the mysterious husband never asked to meet in person.
Now, in the final year of our arrangement, the husband I've never met is demanding we meet face to face.
But disaster struck the night before my return—drunk and disoriented, I stumbled into the wrong hotel room and ended up sleeping with the legendary financial mogul, Caspar Thornton.

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.

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.

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?
