Introduction
I was furious. I would ensure that he and his mistress had difficulty convincing me of the divorce. But why was he acting differently?
Chapter 1
Jefferson's POV
"Marry her, and you will have all my shares in the company," Dad told me. I was furious. He knew I had a girlfriend, yet he wanted me to marry someone else. Ever since he has never bothered himself with me; he always said he trusted my decisions and would never meddle in my personal affairs. Now, here he is, singing different tunes.
"If I did not agree?" I asked. I knew that he had no choice but to hand me the company. It's not because I'm his only son but because he knew that I was capable.
"Then I am going to offer it to Noris." The shock was an understatement. How could he? Is he willing to give his shares to that bastard to marry that woman, whoever she is?
"You've got to be kidding me. You knew he'd grabbed the opportunity at once." I told him. Noris is my half-brother. He's older than me, but my father married my mother.
"Yes, that's why I am offering it to you first; I already knew the answer I would be getting from him." He replied. "I didn't want you to tell me that; I didn't let you know about it or blame me for not telling you, so here I am, informing you before him." He added. So he only informed me and didn't ask me to do it? Do I have to thank him for that? I sighed in exasperation and looked at him. He was sitting comfortably on his couch. I would not have come here if I had known that he would tell me this now.
"Dad, you know that I worked hard for the company. I gave everything and devoted myself to it, " I told him.
"I know; that's why I am offering you this first. But you don't have to worry. If Noris agrees to marry Celina, I will tell him to let you stay at the company as the vice president," he said.
Did I hear him correctly? Vice President? Noris would be the Chairman, and I would be a fucking Vice President! "Not even a president, dad? A vice president? Is that how little you think of me?" I asked, controlling my anger. He is my father, and I didn't want us to have a dispute regarding money or the company.
"Of course, I think highly of you! Don't think otherwise. Vice President is the only position I can give you because Celina will be the president. I know how much Noris could handle so that I will put Celina in charge of the operation," he replied. I started thinking that Noris was his legitimate son and not me. I mean, how could he do this to me? He is his son, too, but the company was built for him by my mother, and she was there when Dad struggled.
"You can leave." He said.
"What?" I asked him. Is that how he is going to dismiss me?
"Your brother is coming. I am going to talk to him. " He said as he closed his eyes and massaged his temples. I was losing it. The thought of having to follow that bastard infuriates me. I would never follow him in this lifetime.
"Fine. I agree with you. " I told him, and he looked shocked. "What? You never expected me to agree? After you told me that you'd handed the company to your bastard, you expect me to let it happen?" I asked him continuously and angrily. I never thought that he was capable of doing this to me. Mom will come out of her grave if I let that son of his manage the company they both work hard for and then me.
"Think before you agree. It is a marriage that we are talking about," he said.
"You're telling me that now? Isn't this what you wanted? What, are you worried about me now? " I asked him angrily.
"Don't call him my bastard; he has a name and is your older brother. He does nothing to hurt you, so be respectful to him. You don't need to be smart to learn this thing." He said, "I am not worried about you or Noris in this marriage. I was worried about Celina. I'm afraid she'd get hurt no matter who between you and Noris accepted this offer. If only I could give her everything, but I knew that you and your brother wouldn't let her slide and would accuse her of everything," he said. "Just go home first and think about it. If you promised me that you'd never hurt her in any way, I mean anyway, and to protect her at all cost, we have a deal. " He added, "You know where to find me if you make up your mind." Those were his last words before he got up from his couch.
I was left behind and thought about what Dad said. He was worried about the woman more than me or Noris. Who is that woman? It was a little after lunch, so I returned to the office. When my dad called me earlier, I was in a meeting, and I decided to end it, thinking he had important things to say. My assistant Daria welcomed me with documents that required my attention. I'm glad she gave me something I could work on so I will have my mind occupied. I had been spending my entire time with the files that Daria had handed me when my girlfriend Wendy called me. I thought about whether I would talk to her and decided I had to.
"Hi, babe..." she said as soon as I answered her call. I wanted to go to the mall to buy a gown for the charity event I would attend. Can you come with me?" She asked in a sweet voice.
"I'm sorry, but I have important things to do right now, and I need to finish this," I told her. She always takes me with her, and I like that about her.
"Okay, babe. I will cancel it. " She said I felt guilty, so I told her.
"You don't have to cancel it; you can go without me."
"But I don't have money to buy the gown," she replied. I was stunned for a moment and realized that whenever we went out, I was the one who paid for everything she'd bought. When she wanted something, she would call me out and have me pay for everything. I am not stingy, and she's my girlfriend, so spending money on her was not an issue for me.
"Okay, I will have Daria attend to your needs. Just tell me how much, and Daria will settle it. " I told her.
"Okay, babe, tell her to be at Allaine's at five instead. Goodbye." She said and ended the call. My eyes stayed on the phone that I was holding. I realized that I had never been to any of the occasions that Wendy had attended. Still, I was always with her whenever she bought something she needed for those events. I tried to think about if I was available during those times, but I knew there were times that I was free. No matter what, I can't do anything about it since I will break up with her. Then I told Daria to go to Allaine's to assist Wendy and saw her sad face. I understand it wasn't her job, but did she have to do that?
"Don't you want to do it?" I asked. I was facing a dilemma and didn't want her complaint to add to that.
"It's nothing like that, Sir. I just... I just don't like her, " she said.
"Just do as I say," I told her, and she nodded before leaving my office, and I looked at her retreating figure. I never once heard her complain about her work or anything. She was good at her job. As for Wendy, I decided to break up with her and marry the woman my dad wanted. Office hours were almost over, and I decided to go and see Wendy as well. I have to break up with her soon, so I won't be able to have problems with her in the future.
I drove to Allaine's and found Daria's car parked far away. I parked beside hers and went inside and saw how Wendy treated my secretary, threatening to fire her after we got married. Now I know why she didn't like her. I stayed where I was and listened to her bragging. I didn't know she had been that kind of woman all these years. Daria acted as if nothing happened and did not bother or even mind Wendy. I admire her for that. I went back to my car and waited until I saw Daria walk back to her car. I think she was shocked to find me there.
She greeted me, and I told her she could go home, and she left. I took my phone and called Wendy. "Hi, babe." She said sweetly. It was as though she was a different person from the one I saw earlier.
"I'm in the parking lot. Can you come here? "
"OK, babe, I'm done here as well. " She said, and I ended the call. I saw her car beside the store and thought about who she was with. As far as I know, she didn't drive by herself. After a few minutes, I saw her approaching my car, smiling. I unlocked the car door and let her in.
"Let's break up," I said as soon as she got into the car.

Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.
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.
The ballroom fell silent.
Was he about to kiss me?

At night, in her dreams, he would patiently wait for her—the man who brought sunshine into her darkest moments.
They would dance the night away, but as dawn approached, he would vanish into the morning sun.
Lilly had given up hope of finding a mate, having a family, and leading a normal life.
But things are about to drastically change for her...
Secrets, lies, betrayal... and a baby on the way.
What if Lilly wasn't wolf-less? What if it was all a lie?
What if she had a living family? Would she stay and bond with them or make a run for freedom?
