I walked into Dante Marchetti’s world begging for mercy.
He offered it, beautifully packaged, brutally priced.

Two million dollars erased with a single signature.
My freedom erased with the next line

The contract is simple: my silence, my time, my body.
Now I’m bound to a man who doesn’t believe in love,
only ownership…
and I’m the possession he chose.

Dante is cold, controlled, and feared by men who fear nothing.
Yet with me, his control fractures.
His gaze turns hungry.
His voice turns sinful.
And the darkness he hides pulls me closer than his hands ever dare.

I should run.
But he’s already decided I’m his.
Not for a night.
Not for a debt.
For as long as he wants.

And Dante Marchetti never stops wanting.

"It's a command and not a request, look me in the eyes," he let out.
"I said look me in the eyes," he yelled louder that I couldn't help but shiver.
"She's blind," someone let out in the crowd. I could feel my legs go weak.
"Are you blind?" he asked but I kept mute. "Don't let me repeat myself, are you blind?" he yelled in frustration.
"Yes," I said with a teary and shaky voice.
"A blind Mate," he yelled out for everyone to hear.
"The moon Goddess must be great to have given me a blind-mate, a useless and weak one! What can a blind person do? They are of no use," he let out as those words hit me hard.
"You would never be good enough for me and therefore it would be a waste to have you as my mate," he said as my legs went weak, I couldn't help it as I fell to the floor. I wished that he could stop because all his words were assassinating to the heart.
"I, Alpha Ace-King reject you for a mate."

Enough of hearing their bullshit, I decided to visit India for further investigation. Just a visit not going to change anything, rather, it gives the answer I'm dying to find.

Deep down I have a feeling that this visit will change my life but how? Let's figure out later.

I have finished my degree in Texas a famous college around the city. I'm a biological student who wishes to become a biological scientist like my father.

Yes, my dad is my hero and I will go beyond the ocean to fulfil my dad's dream as well as mine. He taught me how to find my identity and stand by myself and here I have become a person like how he wished.

Independent and self-motivated...

When my mate dumps me in front of two entire packs, it can’t get worse—until I realized I was pregnant.
Seadon
Our engagement was meant to unite two werewolf packs.
Then one accusation turned me into public enemy number one.
I thought my mate would stand by me—instead, he ended our bond in front of everyone and left me to bear the blame alone.

With no other choice, I fled to the human world, raising the little one whose fuzzy ears pop out at the worst times. I thought I’d finally outrun the wolf-pack drama—until danger found me again.

And guess who shows up like a hero? The same alpha who walked away.
He swears he’ll clear my name and protect me, but there’s something he doesn’t know.
There’s a tiny pair of eyes watching him from behind the door—our son.

"I rather get dragged in the mud with chains by moving horses or be beaten with a club with nails on it than lose my virginity to you," she spat, looking at him with hate in her eyes, hoping her eyes conveyed the degree of contempt she felt when she spat out the words.

Anger and disbelief flashed in his eyes. She was going to be the first woman that would ever reject him and in such a preposterous manner. He stood up and went over to her while she gummed her back to the wall, having no other room to step back. He gripped her chin with his strong palm, forcing her to look at him, his wicked grey eyes bore into her hazel ones.

"What if it's your only ticket to freedom?"

"As I said, I rather die."

He quickly shoved her onto the bed and she scooted away as he moved toward her. "I am Eros Castillo, leader of the El dragon gang, you dare not reject me, nobody rejects me," he said in a low husky voice, his eyes five shades darker, his countenance grim and dangerous.

He said nothing, and only picked up a document and stretched it to her.

Boldly written on it is ‘Divorce Agreement’.

She raised her eyes to him, studying him through blurry vision, "Why are you doing this to me?"

"Clarissa is back," he said with a straight face.

He shoved me into the darkness. Hatred and fear were all I could feel. “Let me out, Damon!” I screamed, my voice echoing in the cold, empty room.

He stepped forward, tilting my chin up to meet his steely brown gaze. “No, Athena,” he murmured, his voice dark and final. In a swift movement, I felt the heavy chains snap around my ankle. I kicked, tried to twist free, but he held me firm.

“Please… don’t—” My words choked off as his grip tightened on my jaw, his eyes cold and unyielding.

"She lied once. He showed up twice. Now she cannot make him leave."

Zoe Lark has one rule. Stay invisible. Do not attract attention. Do not give Sienna Holt a reason to make her life worse than it already is.
She breaks that rule in one sentence.
Cornered at a party she never wanted to attend, Zoe blurts out that she has a boyfriend. Not just any boyfriend. A vampire boyfriend. Tall. Dark-haired. The kind of face that stops traffic. Eyes like winter. Always dressed like he owns every room he has not walked into yet.
She makes him up on the spot.
By midnight, he is standing at her door.
Caden Voss is not a story. He is not a rumor. He is exactly what she described and a hundred times more dangerous. And for reasons he will not fully explain, he agrees to play the role she invented.
What starts as a deal becomes something neither of them planned for. Caden does not do anything halfway. When boys get too close, he steps in. When the whole campus thinks Zoe Lark finally has someone in her corner, he makes them believe every single word.
The problem is, so does he.
Because Caden is not just acting like a boyfriend. He is marking her as his in a way that goes much deeper than pretending. And when the real dangers of his world come looking for Zoe, the line between performance and truth disappears completely.
She lied to survive one night. He showed up to end three centuries of waiting. Now they are both in serious trouble.

Sophia has always felt like the world was against her. Raised by a mother who worked tirelessly to make ends meet, she never knew the warmth of parental affection. Her father, the love of her mother's life, disappeared before she was born, leaving Sophia to silently resent him for the heartbreak he caused. Despite the odds, Sophia pushed through, working long hours at a bar while studying psychology at college. After her mother’s illness and passing, she learned early on how to survive on her own.

Sophia never showed interest in the opposite sex, avoiding relationships out of fear she'd fall into the same trap as her mother. That is, until one night, a handsome man enters the bar. His behavior is strange—he seems drawn to her, almost predatory, smelling her and claiming he wants more. For the first time, Sophia finds herself intrigued. She wonders why this man is so intensely focused on her and what he's hiding. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a shocking truth: he is an alpha, and she is his destined mate

“I'm pregnant.”

Those three words should have been the happiest moment of Elena Whitfield Voss's life. Instead, a single photo of her husband in a hotel room and a message from another woman shatter the future she has dreamed of for her marriage.

For three years, Elena has loved billionaire CEO, Damien Voss with her whole heart. She sacrificed her dream and devoted herself to their home. She never questioned his late nights, his distant nature, or the walls he kept around his emotions. She believed their marriage was unshakable.

Until doubt finds its way in.

The more Elena searches for the truth, the more impossible it becomes to tell what's real and what's a lie. Every answer only leads to another secret, and every secret pushes her further away from the man she thought she knew.

Heartbroken, Elena walks away without revealing the secret growing inside her, a child Damien has always wanted.

Only after losing his wife does Damien realize the woman he took for granted has always been the one who owns his heart. But by then, the lies have already torn them apart.

But when love is buried beneath suspicion, silence, and shattered trust, can the truth still bring two hearts back together?

Or has someone already made sure there is no way back?

“Be my woman and warm my bed,” he said, with a smirk. "And you must follow the terms."
The terms: no pregnancy, always remind him to use protection, constant permission for even the simplest things—even visits to her sick mom—and never denying him intimacy.

Sophie Thompson should have walked away. She should have told him where to shove his suffocating terms. But when her mother’s life hangs in the balance, Sophie signs away her freedom to the masked billionaire whose kiss feels like sin and whose touch makes her tremble.

She thought it would be just a deal. She thought she could survive his world of wealth and power. She was wrong.

Because Julian has secrets buried in darkness, an ex-fiancée who wants him back, and a past that could destroy them both. And when Sophie breaks the one rule she never meant to—falling for him—she’ll learn the deadly truth that hides behind the billionaire’s mask.

"I'm giving you one month," he said. "To get used to this. To me. After that, I won't be asking."

I'm Eleanor Fitzgerald — or I was. The daughter they raised by accident, switched at birth, and erased the day the real one came home. For six years I've made myself small in my own house, and my violin is the only thing that was ever truly mine.
Then my father sold me. To Victor Sterling — the most feared man in Arcadia. A king of the underworld who put his own uncle in federal prison and built an empire on everyone who crossed him. The contract gives him my name for two years and ten million dollars. In return, I owe him everything a wife owes her husband — he made that clear before I signed. I was too shy, too reluctant, too proud to argue.
I braced myself for him to take what the contract says is his.
But he hasn't. He shows up when the room turns against me, and the room falls silent. He knows I can't eat tree nuts. He leaves his white shirt on my bed and tells me I'm Sterling now. And one night, with his mouth at my ear, he stops asking: I have one month to get used to him. After that, he won't ask again.
I told myself this was a transaction. Two years, a wire transfer, a clean exit. But nothing prepared me for the way he looks at me — or for the way my heart stops when he does.
One month. When it's over, will I still be his contract wife... or his?

The Devil Lord who killed my father wanted me to be his bride!

"You are the reason for my existence," Apollyon said huskily. "I belong to you. You possess me, Lilith," he added, his hand moved from her thigh which had a slit to her inner thigh.
"Stop, Apollyon," Lilith said.
"What if I don't?" Apollyon asked, peering deep into her eyes. "Say that I affect you," he proclaimed. His hand dangerously moved close to her forbidden region.
"Mmm..." And she moaned the next second, her strength of holding back crumbling into pieces.
Before Apollyon could pull away, Lilith pulled him down and kissed the Devil Lord.

In the Kingdom of Azuria, lived a young girl named Lilith. Her father was a renowned medical doctor for the Royal Family. Little did she know that her insatiable curiosity would unleash a series of unfortunate events, she inadvertently awakened Apollyon, the powerful Devil Lord who had been in a deep slumber for thousands of years which led to the tragic demise of her beloved father.
Seizing the opportunity presented by his awakening, the Devil Lord, Apollyon, swiftly secured control of Azuria by eliminating the entire royal lineage. The once-sealed devils were unleashed, and they began ruling over the humans.
As the years passed, Lilith matured into a resilient young woman. Apollyon, driven by a unique bond formed at the moment of his awakening, finally set his sights upon her, declaring her as his bride.
To Apollyon, Lilith symbolized his existence. However, for Lilith, Apollyon was the embodiment of her darkest nightmares.
Caught in the crosshairs of fate, Lilith must navigate a path where she does not only find her father's death mystery but at the same time, finds herself falling for Apollyon even in the darkness surrounding her.

After returning to her hometown, Lila plunges into despair: her grandmother is critically ill, and her father has gambled away the entire family fortune. To save her grandmother, she is forced to strike a cold deal with Killian, a tycoon feared by the powerful elite — trading her compliance for life-saving funds.
A night of accident leads her to become pregnant with Killian’s child, which completely shatters the balance of their deal. Killian originally intended to use her as a pawn to deal with his family, yet he is gradually drawn to her resilience and resistance. What’s more, Lila hides a past as a top-tier agent.

When the formidable matriarch of the city's most powerful mafia family dies, she leaves behind one final command. Every member of the family must return to the ancestral estate and remain there for seven days. Each evening, they must gather for dinner. Only if they fulfill her wishes will her fortune be divided.

None of them expect the true inheritance to be buried beneath silver.

As the first dinner begins, an ornate silver dome is lifted to reveal a secret the family has spent decades hiding. The following night uncovers another. With every revelation, old alliances fracture, accusations fly, and the walls of the estate close in around them. Lies become weapons, blood ties become liabilities, and everyone at the table has something to lose.

For the Don, the week becomes a nightmare. The family he trusted is not the family he thought he knew, and the memory of his dead wife—killed in a tragic accident three years ago—haunts every secret brought to light. Meanwhile, an overlooked cousin from an illegitimate branch and a mysterious distant relative unexpectedly find themselves caught in the center of a deadly game neither of them asked to play. Can they ride out the storm by clinging to each other?

Someone has spent years preparing this reckoning. Every dinner is another move in a carefully orchestrated plan. Every secret brings the family one step closer to ruin.

By the seventh night, the final silver dome will reveal a truth so devastating that nothing—not the family, the empire, or the inheritance—will ever be the same.

I only meant to kiss a stranger to make my ex-fiancé jealous.
One daring moment in the heart of the pit; the roar of the crowd echoing off the steel, adrenaline pumping, and my heart pounding, I kissed the most dangerously gorgeous man I’d ever seen.
I didn’t know he was the Don to the most feared mafia group in the city.
I didn’t know he was being hunted.
And I definitely didn’t know I was his perfect alibi.
Now I’m tangled in a cruel world filled with secrets with the man who claims I belong to him. But there’s something Nikolai Moretti doesn’t know; I’m not just some pit-side whore fling. I’m his salvation…. and his damnation.

Lydia McKenzie used to be just like any other normal, seventeen-year-old high school girl, fretting over what to wear for school, struggling to get good grades and dealing with boy trouble, until one day, a dangerous incident at school and a severe brain injury, made her turn off her emotions completely.

Who is she and what’s in her past? He’s just as fascinated with her as he is annoyed. Can romance bloom between such a mismatched pair? And will Lydia ever let herself feel again, after what she’d endured?

It was then that she felt a little wetness on her face; she didn't realize that tears were streaming down her cheeks the whole time. That's when she broke down into more tears. Takumi pulled her into a hug.
