Introduction

“My name is Isabela Darius, and for five years I’ve kept a secret that could change everything.”

I knew crossing paths with Gabriel Castellano again would be dangerous. He’s not just an arrogant and controlling billionaire; he’s also the man who broke my heart—and the father of the child he doesn’t know exists.

I had a plan: keep my head down, stay invisible, and move on with my life. But the moment our eyes met that night, I knew fate had other plans. Gabriel has always been ruthless, and now he’s determined to uncover what I’m hiding.

Between his anger, my guilt, and the undeniable love still lingering between us, one thing is certain: secrets don’t stay buried forever.

And mine is about to be exposed.

Chapter 1

Isabela

The sound of crystal glasses clinking filled the ballroom with an almost unbearable brilliance. High-fashion outfits paraded through the room as the guests competed for attention in every gesture, in every exaggeratedly rehearsed word. It was the kind of event I made a point to avoid. Yet here I was, holding a tray of champagne and pretending I had nothing to hide.

"Just a few more hours..." I whispered to myself. It was what I always told myself when I had to face situations that seemed unbearable. Every second here was a test of my patience and my ability to go unnoticed. And for five years, I had succeeded.

Until he walked in.

Gabriel Castellano.

The air seemed to leave the room when he appeared. Tall, with a black suit perfectly tailored to his athletic body, he carried a presence that made everyone around him seem irrelevant. His eyes, dark as the night, scanned the room with the confidence of someone who knew he owned the space, perhaps everyone there. Including, apparently, my air.

The glass on my tray trembled slightly when I saw him. I hadn't seen him since that fateful day, five years ago. Since the moment I decided to disappear and never tell him about Miguel. My son. Our son.

"Damn..." I murmured, adjusting the tray in my sweaty hands. I needed to get out of there before he saw me.

But of course, fate wasn’t going to let me escape that easily.

Our eyes met. For a second, time seemed to stop. The conversation in the ballroom turned into a distant hum, and I was trapped under his gaze. Gabriel narrowed his eyes, as if trying to believe what he was seeing. The smile he wore as he greeted the guests disappeared, replaced by a hard and inquisitive expression.

"Isabela..." he murmured, but I read his lips from across the room.

My survival instinct kicked in. I turned quickly and walked toward the doors leading to the kitchen. Maybe I could hide there until the event ended. Maybe he’d think he’d mistaken me for someone else.

But Gabriel Castellano was not the kind of man who left questions unanswered.

"You! Stop!"

His deep voice echoed above the noise of the ballroom, and my heart skipped a beat. I kept walking, pretending I hadn’t heard. But before I could take two more steps, I felt a firm hand grab my arm. The touch was familiar, but its weight now carried anger.

"Isabela," he repeated, and this time his voice was so close I had no choice but to face those eyes that always haunted me.

"Mr. Castellano," I replied, forcing my voice to sound steady. "I need to get back to work."

"Work? That’s a good one." He let out a dry laugh, releasing my arm just enough for me to turn fully toward him. "You disappeared for five years, and now you’re here, serving drinks at an event hosted by my family?"

"I didn’t know you’d be here." My response came too quickly, betraying the nervousness I was trying to hide. "It’s a coincidence."

Gabriel raised an eyebrow, skeptical. He had always been good at detecting lies.

"Coincidence? I doubt it." He took a step closer, and the heat of his presence was suffocating. "You owe me an explanation, Isabela."

"I owe you nothing," I retorted, trying to move away. But he blocked my path.

"You think you can just disappear, leave everything behind, and I won’t demand answers?" His anger was palpable, but what scared me more was the vulnerability hidden behind it. Gabriel never liked losing control, and I clearly threw him off balance.

"We both moved on," I lied, gripping the tray so tightly my fingers hurt. "There’s nothing left to say."

He tilted his head, analyzing every line of my face. For a moment, I thought he might back off. But then, a small smile appeared on his lips. It wasn’t a kind smile. It was the smile of a man who knew there was more to the story.

"We’ll see," he said, and his tone sent a chill down my spine.

Before I could respond, one of the guests approached, catching Gabriel’s attention. I took advantage of the distraction to slip away into the kitchen, where I finally set the tray down and leaned against the wall, trying to catch my breath.

He knew. Maybe not everything, but enough for me to know that my life was about to change.

Later that night, as I tried to organize my thoughts in the small apartment I shared with Miguel, I looked at my son’s face. He slept soundly, with the kind of peace only an innocent child could have. But I knew that wouldn’t last long. Gabriel Castellano wasn’t the kind of man to accept gaps in the story. And now that he knew I was back, he would do whatever it took to uncover the truth.

The truth I’d been hiding for five years.

From the dark imagination of Harley Steele, a chilling story unfolds—a frightful tale of twisted horrors.

Hey, my name's Alice, and my boyfriend's name is... Yeah, no, we're not doing that song and dance. Naw. Once upon a time, I was just another girl hoping for a simple life after high school. Now, I'm ensnared in the grotesque reality of Naughty Nectar Farms (NNF), not a farm but a prison where shadows don’t just whisper—they scream with the horrors of the night.

My stepfather, blinded by greed, sold my freedom and my innocence to this nightmare. Here, I am nothing more than livestock, subjected to the twisted whims of those who see women as commodities to be bred, milked, and broken. But while they may have trapped my body, they can't imprison my will.

Each day, I hear the hushed, sinister talks of breeding and milking disguised as agricultural innovation. I see the cruel fate of my fellow captives, poked, prodded, and dehumanized. Yet in this lab of horrors, where humanity is stripped away, I hold onto one truth—they think I am weak, demure, broken. They are mistaken.

I am guilty of many things, but submission is not one of them. Here in the depths of despair, my fury simmers. I am plotting, waiting. For though they have taken much, my resolve grows with each passing day. I will lead us out of this darkness, or die trying. This is no ordinary farm, and I am no ordinary woman.

I looked strong, and my wolf was absolutely gorgeous.
I looked to where my sister is sitting and her and the rest of her posse have jealous fury on their faces. I then look up to where my parents are and they're glaring at my picture, if looks alone could set shit on fire.
I smirk at them then I turn away to face my opponent, everything else falling away but what was here on this platform. I take my skirt and cardigan off. Standing in just my tank and capris, I move into a fighting position and wait for the signal to start -- To fight, to prove, and not hide myself anymore.
This was going to be fun. I thought, a grin on my face.
