Chapter 1
Chapter one
Jayde
I take my bag and look at myself in the mirror for the last time.
I don't look good, sincerely but I'm not bad either.
All I have to wear are my mom's clothes. That's how life is for me. I've been struggling to keep up with the good things of life after my father's death.
My father's death came as a huge blow to us. We were not rich but we never starved when he was alive.
I used to think I would be a beautician. I've always dreamt of becoming one. My father at that time showered me with everything I wanted.
I was an only child and so, I always got everything I wanted.
Who knows how he died. They only brought him one day and told us he collapsed while working and died instantly. After crying for days, we went to them to give me my father's salary but they said my father had lots of debts to pay off. And they had used his money for it.
Mom didn't really work those days. He was a petty trader but now she has to double her hustle.
Life is hard for me. Earning money isn't easy. I have to work the night shift to be able to afford a three-square meal.
Now, I'm going to the bar for the night duties.
I feel so tired already but I can't rest yet.
I am using my money for school. I need to go to school and create an office of mine. So, I can officially be a beautician.
Mom isn't at home. She will be back later in the night. But I need to go now.
I pick my phone from the table and walk out of the house.
Is there hope for me in the future? Will things ever be normal for me?
Well, I don't think so. I don't even think life can get any better.
I wave for a taxi to stop.
The car pulls to a stop beside me, " Number 24, Magic street," I tell the chauffeur.
"Get in," he replies.
I hop in and he drove straight to the bar.
I pay him and walk with fast strides to the bar.
I see Jayden and wave at him. He's the DJ of this popular bar. The reason why I like him is that he bears a name similar to mine.
People call us twins here as well. And well, he's the only one I'm close with.
I enter the restroom and put on a red gown I brought a month ago. Since Mrs. Maggie Lincorn never allows baggy clothes. I had to get two nice gowns for my job.
It looks good on me and somehow brings out my shape but it's something I can't even afford to get.
I walk out and resume my post.
Just immediately, Weston and Declan walk in.
Oh My, the ladies in the bar whoops with delight. The guys jubilate and I can't help but gawk at them.
These guys are the Billionaires of Aylesbury. These two are friends and sons of a billionaire. They are not only rich, but they are also handsome. They call themselves Ayles billionaires. Actually, they used to be three as I've heard. I heard the third is out of the country currently. The third guy's name is Henry.
One of the reasons why I love coming here is because I always have things to feast my eyes on. I don't even have a TV at home.
Just immediately, three-woman moves nearer. These women are also Ayles best. They are the sexiest and beautiful and the best of all Aylesbury ladies. They call themselves Ayles beaut but they are April, Jamie, and Bonnie
And damn, I mustn't lie. These ladies makes me wonder how my life came to be this way. Maybe if my dad hadn't died, I might be on my way to looking that beautiful. Or maybe not. I'm not destined for something like this.
My life is so twisted.
Gwen has gone to take the Ayles billionaire order. Well, I trust Gwen to do it. She has a huge crush on Declan. So, she's always threatening me never to move close to their table whenever they are in. I'm not even allowed to look at them.
I move to the next table and clear the table. I move to Samson.
There's currently nothing to do. So, I stand and watch what Gwen was doing.
She moves closer to Declan that was busy chatting with Bonnie. His hands were doing the work behind her, touching her ass slightly.
Maybe Gwen loves it but it's irritating to me. How can he be squeezing someone's ass? I see it all as nonsense.
"Gwen is really not still considering her feelings for Declan? Declan is a bastard," Samson says beside me and shakes his head. He seems to be looking at the view I'm watching as well.
Well, let's get this iron out. Declan is a skirt chaser while Weston is a playboy. According to the rumors, only Henry is manageable. I heard he doesn't have a girlfriend presently but he's stubborn and choosy. I just wonder what Henry kind of man is doing with Weston and Declan.
They are like day and night.
I look at Samson again, "I will be back in a jiffy," I tell him and maneuver through the chair into the restroom.
I wash my hand and look at myself in the mirror fastened to the wall.
Declan still notices Gwen. In fact, on most occasions, he would dash her money. But no one notices me. I'm always invisible everywhere I go.
It's all for the better anyway, I don't care about it.
I walk out of the restroom only to bump into a hard wall. Actually, it's a hard chest and the person is a guy.
I bend slowly, "I'm so sorry," I made to walk away but I was forced back.
I gasp and lookup. Declan?
My heartbeat increases drastically. His cologne mounted to my nose. How can he smell so good?
He let go of me with disgust.
"Ouch," he says and brings out a hand sanitizer. He pours some amount of it on the hand he held me with. He rubs it slowly. And I must say, I feel pained in my heart by the action.
He's right anyways. To him, I'm just a dirty girl but he doesn't have to run it in my face.
He looks up at me now, "You bumped into me.".
"I'm sorry," I bow my head and make to walk away but his hands pull me to another sudden stop.
I'm forced to look at him in the eyes. What does he want from me now?
"He wipes his hand with the sanitizer again, "Why do you keep making me waste this thing," he says drunkenly. Maybe he's really drunk. He looks at me now, " You bumped into me. You are supposed to apologize normally."
I raise a brow at him, surprised, " I've apologized. How am I supposed to do it normally?"
He licks his lips drastically, so sexy but so stupid!
" Kiss my feet!" He says and made a smirk.
What? I feel like I've just heard it wrong.
"What did you just say?"
"You heard me right. I don't like repeating myself. I want you to kiss my feet to apologize for hitting into me, you wench!" His voice went higher than normal.
My heartbeat accelerates.

Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.

When his monstrous Primal breaks free, slaughtering everything in its path, even his fiercest warriors cower.

I walk straight to the blood-soaked beast, press my body against his, and tame him with a single, desperate embrace.
There’s just one problem: his clan betrothed him to a Shaman’s daughter.
I tell myself it's purely political. I tell myself his heart is mine.
Until tonight.
He sneaks into the woods for me. We share a deep, hungry kiss under the moonlight.
But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...

Tango 2 the Alpha's Heart
My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody.
I found myself molded to Lex's will, my feet irresistibly following the dance steps.
The crowd gasped as Lex pulled me into a more intimate position, his hands roaming over my body in a seductive manner.
The experience was both terrifying and magical, allowing me to feel every longing emotion through the dance.
I soon found myself lost in his arms.
When the music finally stopped, my arms were wrapped around his neck, his hands resting on my back, our noses almost touching. He gazed deeply into my eyes.

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.
The Lycan Kings and the White Wolf.
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
