EPISODE 1 : First, Meet Kyle and Audrey
KYLE'S POV (A poor guy)
I sang whole-heartedly..
It is what i love the most,
what i almost cannot do without,
the only thing that gives me Joy..
Music.
MUSIC:
🎶The moment I met you for the very first time🎵
🎶I remember that I'm out of breath
🎵Maybe you've heard it and still remember the day I was upset 🎶
🎶I really like it when I hear your voice
🎵But I like it better when we walk together
🎶Yeah, there was a time, 🎵 there was a day when I loved you with all my heart.
🎵You are my first love everytime
🎶I'll wait for you untill the spring snow comes
🎵I thought I was drunk that night 'cos my heart was really strange and the wind blew.
🎵That night I was so sad and stumbled.
🎶You are my first love everytime
🎶Sometimes I feel like love is lonely and my life is always hard.
🎶I knew it from the day we spent together, that; 🎵 there was a day I loved you with all my heart...
"Careless woman! " I heard my Dad yelled at my Mom.
Oh! Not again.
Despite the fact that I was so engrossed with my music, they succeeded in interrupting me and making me miss a line.
I sang as if I were in love with someone but I wasn't, yet the title of song - my first song is 'First love'
"Bring it on! I'm prepared for you! " My Mom yelled back at him.
Arrrgh! I stood up, walked to my door and slammed it. It's gonna reduce their noise at least.

(Poor girl)
AUDREY's POV
"Surprise!!" My Mom exclaimed as she untied the piece of cloth which she used to cover my face - my eyes precisely.
"Where are we mommy? " I asked, surprised..
Staring at the beautiful environment...The sitting room.
"Mo..mom" I muttered.
"Yes baby" She replied smiling.
"This is our new home"
"Mom, don't tell me you used the loan you received to buy this expensive house? " I asked in a grouse.
"C'mon Audrey, it's the smallest building in Wearous Estate" My mom stated.
"Wearous Estate? " I exclaimed almost in a scream then I rushed to a window nearby to check through it.
Afar, I saw a bill board ' WEAROUS' was scrawled on it.
I don't want to believe that my mom bought a house here in Wearous Estate of all Estates?
"Mom, how are we gonna cope? We don't belong to this environment" I whined.
"How do you mean? What do you mean by we don't belong to this environment?"
"Everyone here is rich, I mean extremely wealthy" I continued to complain.
"Audrey, I trained you really well, have you stopped believing that there is nothing impossible?" Mom said obviously fed up of my complaints already.
"I know Mom, I'm simply saying you should have just bought a small house in a less standard estate. OK this is the smallest house here right but I'm pretty sure it is fvcking expensive. Later or even sooner, the bank managers would start running to you for their money. Think about it mom, how do you intend to pay them? how are we gonna pay them? " I grumbled; folding my hands.
I don't know what's wrong with mom..
We've been living a small but comfortable life with her friend, Bridget but she got married a week away. Now we have no choice rather than to find our own house and live our own life.
She pleaded for a loan which was reluctantly given to her. I expected her to get one mini-home on a low-key but she bought this small house which I could still classify to as 'Expensive' because of it location. It's an estate for the Rich.
Wearous - WEAlthy and prospeROUS.
Ugh!
"It would take centuries before I'll find someone who is wealthless like me that's even if there is one here" I said.
"How many times do I have to tell you never to look down on your self, never to see you yourself as a poor girl..? Your father is very rich. Why are you making it seems like it's wrong for us to live among the rich?"
My Mom is single and I cherish her more than anything else in this world.
How could Dad be so heartless to abandon my mom after putting her in a motherly state? Huh, did I just call him Dad? Never ! I have no father..Such an heartless man is not worthy to be called a father.
Mom told me it was her fault anyway.
She did what teenage girls do.
Because he was swimming in money, she clinged around him then later fell in love with him but she fell in love with his money first.
She did everything to make him believe that she loves him to the moon.
When she found out that she was pregnant for him, she called his numbers and told him she had a baby in her womb for him.. He hung up the call, she tried to call him again but his phone was turned off.
When she tried visiting him, she was told that he and his families already travelled to Italy and they aren't gonna return anytime soon but they never returned.
That was how I came into existence, a rich girl with no father.
"It's wrong mom, it is"
"I just broke the first news to you and you are grumbling. What if I say the other one? " Mom said.
What?
"And what is it? "
"I registered you at Wearous High School" My mom proclaimed.
I was shocked..
Why Mom?
"You'll be resuming tomorrow, I've got you the uniforms and everything you would need to look like a student of Wearous school"
"WHS is meant for wealthy students from wealthy homes" I told her
"You are rich girl remember?" My Mom said.
I scoffed, Yeah a poor rich girl.
She calls me a rich girl because I have a wealthy father who is absolutely anonymous to me.
"Aren't you the one always telling me to be myself and never to emulate what other people do? " I asked adamantly.
"Listen Audrey, I know the school is well-popular for being prosperous and filled with wealthy students. Don't make it uneasy for us, if it is about the money...you don't need to worry about it b'cos I've gotten you an after school Job, it's not too far from Wearous High School"
"Oh Mom, you are doing so many things without my consent" I sniveled then intentionally fell flat on a couch.- It was... comfortable.
"I know you don't want it, that's why I did all these things without informing you first" My Mom said.
"And what if..?" I paused "What if I reject it all, I mean I refuse to go to WHS, I refuse to take a part-time job or even refuse to stay in this house and it Environment" I said and saw a rising unhappy-and-angry look on her face.
"You won't want to make me sad right? " Mom said already looking despondent.
"I love you mom, sincerely I do. I don't want you to spend or go through too much" I briefly explained.
"But I'm not complaining "
"Ok fine! I'll do what you want, I'll act like I'm one of the rich girls from a rich home when I get to thw school" I said sarcastically and mom heaved a sigh of relief 'cos the long argument as finally come to an end.
"Where is the kitchen, I'll go make dinner" I said then stood up.
Making Mom happy is what I want the most and nothing more.

Falling for My Boyfriend's Uncle
My boyfriend skipped our anniversary for her—the girl who called me a whore.
He left me walking home in the dark. When my apartment caught fire, he ignored my calls.
But his uncle showed up.
The one with the scarred knuckles and the cop badge. The one who looked at me like he wanted to burn the world down for me—or maybe burn me down instead.
Now, we live under the same roof. Three people. One bed too close.
Every time my boyfriend touches me, I flinch. Every time his uncle looks at me, I burn.
He's dangerous. He's forbidden. He's everything I shouldn't want.
Is he saving me... or does he just want to own me?
Some fires don't just burn. They consume.
Iron And Glamour Just Don't Mix
Well… Sometimes you just might turn out to be right.
It turns out, the fae stole my little brother. In his place? A pixie with boundary issues and a talent for home repairs.
I’ve spent my life taking care of everyone else. So when my baby brother is taken, I don’t hesitate. I walk straight into a faerie mansion and make a bargain with its infuriatingly charming master.
Kie is everything you’d expect from a dangerous fae, beautiful, political, and entirely too amused by me. Power wrapped in a smirk. Sensual, mischievous, and far too aware of the effect he has on people. He agrees to help me find my brother.
For a price.
Now I’m bound by a faerie bargain and navigating a world of glamour, manipulation, and ancient rules I definitely should have learned sooner, enchanted forests, political games, magical contracts, and a fae lord who treats seduction like a perfectly reasonable negotiation tactic.
Iron is how I keep people out.
Glamour is how he draws them in.
And apparently, they just don’t mix.
The mafia princess return
Tango with the Alpha's Heart
“He met her at the Alpha training camp,” he said. “She is a perfect suitor for him. It snowed last night, indicating that his wolf is happy with his choice.”
My heart sank, and tears made their way down my cheeks.
Alexander took my innocence last night, and now he is taking that thing in his office as his Luna.
Emily became the laughingstock of the pack on her 18th birthday and never expected the Alpha's son to be her mate.
After a night of passionate love, Emily finds out that her mate has taken a chosen mate. Heartbroken and humiliated, she disappears from the pack.
Now, five years later, Emily is a respected high-ranking warrior in King Alpha’s army.
When her best friend invites her to a night of music and laughter, she never expects to run into her mate.
Will her mate figure out it is her?
Will he chase after her, and most of all, will Emily be able to keep her secrets safe?
BROKEN TRUST
Neither of them knew she was carrying his child.
Emily’s affair didn’t just end her marriage—it erased the life she thought was guaranteed. Ryan left without looking back, carrying his anger like armor and leaving Emily alone with regret she would never outrun. Three years later, fate drags them back into each other’s world, along with a little girl who has Ryan’s eyes and a truth that shatters everything he thought he knew.
Old wounds reopen, grief masquerades as rage, and love refuses to stay buried. As parenthood binds them together and the past demands accountability, Emily and Ryan must face the question neither of them is ready to answer: is broken trust the end of their story… or the beginning of a love forged through loss, forgiveness, and brutal honesty?

Cassian believes she may be connected to a mystery that has claimed the lives of powerful Alphas for years.
His wolf believes something else.
That she is his mate.

Because someone is watching.
Someone is waiting.
And someone will kill to keep the truth buried.

Thorne said nothing.
He merely raised his hand, gently pressing his bride’s forehead.
In an instant, the chaos in her eyes faded. Holy light surged from beneath the church, shooting into the sky.
The world’s only candidate for the Saintess, blessed with holy power, slowly opened her clear eyes before him.

On the engagement day, my fiancé slipped a ring on her finger. My parents handed me a train ticket to oblivion.
They celebrated their victory while I disappeared.
