Introduction

"And now, he's certain your life is over because he kicked you out. They're probably already placing bets on how long it will take for you to bow and beg at their feet to take you back. But..." He said coldly.

"But..." I breathed.

"Imagine suddenly returning with a husband so wealthy he makes them look like paupers. Not only is he filthy rich, but he's hopelessly in love with you, spoiling you rotten. Imagine their shock, their anger, and your satisfaction that you have exceeded their expectations. Won't that be fulfilling?"

"And... who would that husband be?" I whispered.

"Me." He grinned as he caressed my cheek. "Let's get married, my dear Iris."

••~•

After being humiliated and disowned on her wedding day, Iris is suddenly approached by Gordon Graff, the enigmatic and highly controversial billionaire and also her ex's uncle, who asks for her hand in marriage.

His goal: make her family and ex pay for everything they've done to her.

But what happens when the line between pretence and true love begins to blur, and dangerous secrets begin to unfold?

Will the man who has promised to protect her be her doom? And will she be a casualty in his dangerous game of revenge?

Chapter 1

"I object to this wedding!" Blair, my younger sister, yelled as she ran into the church.

"What are you doing? I thought you said you were sick?" I frowned, but she ignored me as she walked to Thomas, my groom, and gave him a passionate kiss.

"What are you doing? Today is the wedding." Thomas whispered.

"You don't have to marry her anymore. I just came back from the hospital, and I've got good news. We're having a baby." She grinned as she pulled out a paper from her purse and gave it to him.

"You're pregnant!" He gasped.

"Yes! You're going to be a father!" She squealed, and this time, he kissed her.

"Thomas? What's going on? Why is she telling you you're the father of her baby?" I asked nervously.

"Because he is." Blair rolled her eyes.

"You've been cheating on me? For how long?" I whispered as tears gathered in my eyes.

"Since it's all out now, there's no need to hide the truth anymore. Blair and I have been dating for two years." He shrugged.

"That's how long we've been engaged! How could you do that to me? I thought you loved me?"

"Love? Who could ever love you?" He sneered. "Blair was always my one true love. You were just the annoying sister I unfortunately had to get married to because the doctor said Blair would have a hard time conceiving, and I need an heir to my family business."

"But lucky for me, you're no longer needed since I'm pregnant." Blair kissed his cheek and smirked. "Honestly, you should be grateful that things turned out like this, because he was going to divorce you once you had two children, take them away and marry me."

"Mother, Father? Is this true? Did you guys really plan that?" I turned to my parents.

"Yes, and? I don't get why you're being so dramatic when you know your marriage was purely business from the beginning." My mother, Monica, scoffed.

"I know, but I love him." I wept as I grabbed Thomas' hand. "I love you, Thomas. I—"

I almost fell as he roughly pushed me away.

"Get it into your dumb skull, I don't love you. I never did. Blair is my soulmate."

"But today is our wedding. We—"

"Wrong. Today is no longer your wedding; it's now Thomas's and mine." Blair grinned.

"What are you talking about? It's still my wedding." I insisted.

"Blair is right. Since she's pregnant for Thomas, there's no need for him to marry Iris. They could get married instead." Ashley, Thomas’ mother, said.

"You can't do—"

"That's a brilliant idea, my dear. There's no need to cancel this and start preparing another one. We already have everything set. We just need to change the brides." Paul, Thomas’ father, replied.

"I agree. Iris, take your sister to the back and give her your wedding dress so she can get married." Mother urged.

"Father, please say something. You can't let them do this to me." I whispered, hoping for the first time he would support me.

"Stop your whining and go give Blair the dress." He said coldly, and my heart shattered.

"Of course, you'll take the side of your precious golden child." I sniffled as I wiped my tears.

"Let's go already. I want to be Mrs Graff." Blair smiled and grabbed my arm.

"No!" I yelled and shoved her away.

"What are you doing?" She scowled.

"I'm not giving you this dress, and I'm not watching you get married."

"Why are you acting like such a brat?"

"I'm the brat?! I'm not the one that is pregnant for my sister's fiancé and demanding to marry him like a slut!" I shouted, and she gasped.

"Shut the fuck up!" Father barked and slapped me.

"You hit me?" I whispered as I held my aching cheek.

"You will not insult my daughter ever again. You either do as you're told or get out and cease being part of this family." He growled, and my eyes widened.

"You don't mean that?" I trembled.

"You were always such a shame to me. I would be so glad to finally get rid of you." He sneered.

So, after years of trying to be the perfect child and living up to your impossible expectation while Blair was pampered and spoilt, I still don't mean anything.

"Fine. I'm no longer your daughter!" I cried and ran out of the church into the rain.

Blinded by grief, I ran across a road and gasped as I tripped on my dress and fell to the ground.

A horn blared as a truck sped towards me, and I tried to stand up, but I tripped on the dress again.

I squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the inevitable impact, but someone yanked me out of the road.

"I know things must be terrible, but trust me, dying isn't the best way out." A rich baritone voice chuckled.

My amber eyes opened, and my breath hitched as my heart raced at the handsome man holding me against his chest and an umbrella over us. His slicked-back hair and eyes were darker than midnight, and his features put Greek gods to shame.

And he looked familiar.

"Are you lost, little bride? Do you need help returning to your groom?" His lips curled to a mocking smile, and my blood boiled.

"Thank you for saving me, but I don't need your help!" I scowled as I shrugged him off and began walking away.

"Really? That's too bad; I thought you would want revenge on your family and Thomas after what they did to you." He said, and I froze.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I lied, though worried about how this stranger knew about the wedding when it was strictly a private affair with only my family and Thomas' as guests.

"Did your heartbreak suddenly make you forget your family and Thomas? Don't tell me you're so easy to break." He chuckled.

"So easy to break!" I scowled and turned around to glare at him. "Its ex-fiancé and I no longer have a family! I don't know who you are and how you were privy to such a private event, but I will not let myself be humiliated twice today! You should be ashamed of yourself for picking on a woman who's in distress!"

"I like that fire. You're going to need it. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Gordon Graff; it's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Ms Iris Adams." He said as he took my hand and kissed it.

My eyes widened, and I stumbled away from him.

It was meant to destroy me.

So I ran. Not to fulfill some destiny, but to survive it.

Now I'm traveling with a hunter who lost his companions to the same curse I carry, chasing fragments of a prophecy the Fae sing differently. An elf took a baby from the palace the night I was born.

“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”

"You want my forgiveness?" he asked, my voice dropping to a dangerous timbre.

Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.

"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.

My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.

My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...

The future Beta and Gamma made her life unbearable. When she finally breaks and seeks freedom at the Moon Goddess temple, she does not find release.

She finds truth.

Aphrodite is not human at all. She is a rare white wolf, descended from an ancient Direwolf bloodline long believed extinct. The ritual meant to sever her ties awakens her wolf instead and with it comes the scent of five mates bound to her by fate.

The Alpha twins who once scorned her now cannot stay away. A human hunter walks beside her and proves that strength is not born of fangs or dominance. A cursed Wolf King holds the key to her past and her father’s imprisonment. And watching from the shadows is one who was never meant to interfere at all.

As gods fall, packs fracture, and war reshapes the world, Aphrodite must decide what destiny truly means. Is it submission to fate or the courage to choose her own path.

Love does not come in one form. Neither does power.

In a world ruled by gods and wolves, Aphrodite will become something neither ever expected.

Not a queen.

"Ten years of atonement, and you flee?"

His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.

"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.

"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."

I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.

"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."

On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.

Augustus Ashenwing, Supreme Sovereign of Skyhold Citadel, is ruthless and feared by all races. His obsession stems from ancient grudges and dragonkind's most dangerous instinct: possessive desire. He demands her submission, binding her to his throne as his consort.

From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.

Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.

Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.
