Introduction
.....
My name is Ixora Rhodes, I'm 19.
Three years ago, my best friend's father was gruesomely murdered.
Evelyn-my best friend, was very sure of who the murderer was, and as the richest girl in the country, the cops were ready to arrest anyone she pointed at.
As Evelyn's best friend, I thoughtlessly supported her too, so when she pointed fingers at Warren as the murderer, i believed it and even testified against Warren in court.
Warren Creed was a brilliant medical student, and as an hated son in his family, no one stepped up for him.
Nailing him was easy, his alibi and evidence of innocence were rendered useless.
Warren was sent to jail, but three years later, I found out that Evelyn lied.
Evelyn actually asked Warren out, but he had turned her down bluntly, prompting her to angrily frame him for her father's murder.
Warren already spent three years in jail before the truth surfaced, but he was released immediately.
But then... he's not the same innocent Warren who got arrested anymore.
Jail changed him to a self-acclaimed god of his own purgatory, a hedonist who draws pleasure from playing wicked mind games.
Unluckily for me, Evelyn died in an accident same day he was released, leaving him with me as his only prey.
Just me-the girl who testified falsely against him.
Nothing would stop him from ruining my life, crushing my existence, and trampling on my soul under his feet.
He's out for blood...for revenge, but the lurking devil inside him suddenly wanted something more than that.
Something crueller, primal, and darker.
Something that'd make me cry blood, crawl, and beg shamelessly at his mercy.
What is it?

Chapter 1
[BEVERLY HILLSRODEO DRIVECALIFORNIA]
He's back.
Ixora's palms were sweaty and clammy on her chocolate-coloured phone pouch as she scrolled through Cali news with shakiness, stalking every available blog for tidbits.
Since she heard the news during lunch at school, her world has been spinning without a plan to stop.
She's currently sitting on her well-laid bed in her large, rich room, inside her mom's mansion.
Her mom's mansion is one of the largest and tightly-protected house in Beverly Hills, but tonight, she couldn't feel the protection.
Breathing is even a problem as everything she's seeing online gagged her and stole her air.
Warren Creed is back from jail.
Same guy she testified against three years ago for the sake of her best friend Evelyn.
Just yesterday, it was found out that Evelyn had lied, and he was released without any punishment for Evelyn since she's a rich bîtch anyways, but Ixora knew something was coming.
Warren wouldn't just sit still after getting exonerated.
It's a rainy night, and the incessant thrum of the rain strokes against the glass of her open window synced with the uneven slams of her heart beneath her sternum.
She spotted another news on a different blog, and as she read the writeup, she gulped.
→"Warren Creed who was condemned to jail three years ago has been released today after it was revealed that Evelyn lied, and the law didn't punish her? What the fûck is wrong with Cali government!"
Ixora dragged her comforter closer to herself, leaving the blog as a WhatsApp message popped up from Evelyn.
Evelyn sent pictures of herself and Nadine - their third friend. They're having fun at a drive-in cinema.
Rage burned like sulphuric blaze in Ixora's skull, and she spranged up from the bed, her foot landing hard on the cold floor.
Evelyn has the nerves to have fun after ruining a guy's life and even dragging her into it?
Evelyn Ortega is a well-known brat, and how she became besties with her is still beyond her own knowledge, but what she didn't expect is this level of wickedness.
She pulled off her PJs and pants. She even forgot to wear another panty before putting on bum shorts and a big tee.
She's gonna go to that cinema and hurt Evelyn. Pin that.
She wore a face cap on her blonde hair and didn't even take a look at her pet fish in the glass aquarium as she went for the door.
Immediately she opened it and saw the butlers and maids lining up in front of her room, she gasped in remembrance, shifting back and quickly shutting the door.
Her mom grounded her yesterday after she got drunk at a school party, so she's forbidden from going out at night till tomorrow, reason for the stupid butlers and maids.
If she tries to leave, they'd drag her back inside, and even if she manages to escape them, there are securities surrounding the house.
She went to her window, looking out to see the huge securities standing on every perimeter in the compound.
But one thing is for sure, she has to leave this house tonight, so she must do something.
An idea came to her mind, and she didn't think it twice before sliding out through her window.
Thankfully, there are pillars to skid through, and there are designed bricks to place her legs on as she skimmed the wall.
Her eyes widened when her cap dropped from her head, falling down the securities angle.
She stopped breathing as she peered down, thinking she got caught, but they didn't even see the cap, so she bit slightly at her upper lip before continuing.
Steady, steady, till she slipped into the shootout next to her room and breathed out in relief.
She dusted her shirt and was about to go down the open stairs when the scornful voice spoke.
"Ohhh, look who's snooping around. I regret that my room is beside yours, otherwise you wouldn't be using my shootout as your escape route"
Ixora smirked, her lids lifting as she turned around to see exactly who she expected.
Serena, her cousin who stays in this mansion with them.
Serena is an annoying pest, and it's even more annoying that they attend the same college.
She's leaning on the rails, her wild eyes logged in on Ixora, and she's wearing exactly what Ixora is wearing.
Bum shorts, big tee, including the face cap. Only the colors are different.
Ixora took quick steps to her and took the face cap from her head, wearing it instead.
"I lost mine to the ground, figured out I could take yours" she smiled - an unfriendly one.
Serena stepped closer too, so they're right in front of each other. She's taller, but Ixora is fleshier.
"You might wanna see this" Serena suddenly shoved her phone screen at Ixora's face, and what Ixora saw made her snatch the phone from her.
It's a picture of Kelsey-Serena's bestie, going into her dad's mansion.
"What the fûck is Kelsey going to do with my dad!" Ixora demanded impatiently.
"What do you think?" Serena winked with sass, taking the phone from her.
"You dumbo!" Ixora spat, rushing down the stairs while the echo of Serena's laughter followed her like a shadow.
Ixora totally forgot about the pouring rain till she got to the base of the stairs and the rain began beating her, but she didn't care.
She needs to go to her dad's mansion first to stop Kelsey.
If Kelsey fûcks her dad, she'd legit be pained, so she quickened her steps, the rainwater gumming the strands of her hair on her shoulder.
Thankfully, there are no securities in this side of the compound cos Serena once poured hot water on one of them, so she freely walked to the fence.
She struggled to lift herself over the top, and she had no idea how tall the fence was till she got to the top and felt like she's on a skyscraper.
It was her alone against the rain as she began struggling to jump down too, but surprisingly, someone held her from the other side, carrying her down gently.
It's Romeo, her driver and bodyguard who happens to be attending the same college with her too.
"Romeo? You already went home after dropping me earlier" she said surprisingly.
The fox-eyed guy bowed a little, then he unfolded his black umbrella and covered her with it, leaving himself to keep getting soaked in the rain.
"The repair shop called that your Cadillac repair was done, so I brought it" he said, pointing at the red car in front of the gate.
"And you came in the rain? You could have waited till tomorrow morning" she said, wanting to touch his wet sleeves, but he slightly shifted back from her hand, making her drop it.
"Are you going somewhere?" He asked immediately.
"Good thing you came, take me to my dad's" she replied, walking to the Cadillac already. He followed, opening the door for her.
She got in the backseat, and he carefully shut the door, getting in to start the drive.
Fog clouded the streets, making it hard to see clearly, but Romeo still drove through it.

Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."

There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—

Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
I Found the Babies
"When..." He growled in my ear, "When we will be getting married, I will be your only king, do you get my point? Only one queen, no misters or mistresses. Just me, just you, and yeah, our babies."
I shivered.
Alyssa Reynolds found herself in a situation, while returning home from work, and she had three choices:
Simply walk away and forget that you ever heard the sound of wailing infants.

Follow the sounds of the wails and take the matter in your hands, deciding what to do later.
Being a kindhearted soul and a sucker for babies, she found herself choosing the third option, finding the two little lives.

Just when she thought that now it's just her and the babies, her whole world flipped over and she found herself living under the same roof as the egotistical, obnoxious and hot-as-hell Terence Powers, the business tycoon who was not going to let the woman fend off for herself and the babies alone.

The Alpha's Stripper Mate
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."

It sounded like fate. Like rescue. Like the moment the universe finally chose her.
Even with the suspicion clinging to the proposal, Meadow let herself believe it. She stepped into the marriage blindly, hoping love would fill the quiet spaces of her mute, colourless life.
But the truth comes fast, and cruel.

Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.

I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.

And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
COLD (Ruthless Player)
“Please… Nick, wait.” He pulled out, thrusted back in. “How much? Twenty thousand? Fifty? Hundred?” With every question, he thrust harder and harder. My neurons are frying with the confusing feeling in my brain. Torn between pleasure, fear, and panic. I couldn't utter a single sentence to save my life.
His cold eyes pinned me in place while he plundered my body with deep thrusts, which only added to my confusion. My dumb body mistook the mixed signals, my pussy becoming even wetter than before.
“I hope she'd paid you well, because I'm going to fuck you all night long, hard,” he growled. “Sleep, then do it all over again. I want to feel you come for me, Andrea, want to feel you squeeze my cock, milking me.
Begging for me to give you the high only I can, I'm going to fucked you until I fuck all my wife's money's worth, I want you to remember how hard I took you while you're meeting her.” I sobbed, moaned, and tried to scramble out under him.
