Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Anna's heart raced with excitement as she hailed a cab on the bustling city street. She was dressed to impress, wearing a stunning red dress and her hair styled perfectly. She had planned the perfect surprise for her boyfriend's birthday, and she couldn't wait to see the look on his face.

As the cab pulled up, Anna gave the driver the address and settled in for the short ride. She had decided not to call ahead, wanting the surprise to be a complete shock. She imagined the look of delight on his face when she walked in, and her heart skipped a beat at the thought.

The cab pulled up to the building, and Anna paid the driver before stepping out onto the sidewalk. She took a deep breath, smoothed her dress, and walked into the building. Her heels clicked on the marble floor as she made her way to the elevator.

As she rode up to his floor, Anna's excitement grew. She couldn't wait to see her boyfriend and celebrate his special day. Little did she know, her world was about to be turned upside down.

As Anna stepped into the apartment, she was enveloped by an eerie silence, punctuated only by the faint whispers of a suspicious melody. Her curiosity piqued, she wandered towards the living room, her stilettos clicking against the polished floor like a ticking time bomb. The air was heavy with an unsettling energy, and Anna's heart raced with a sense of foreboding.

"What's going on?" she wondered aloud, her voice barely audible over the pounding of her heart.

As she approached the bedroom door, the strange sounds grew louder, taking on a life of their own. Anna's mind raced with worst-case scenarios, her imagination running wild with visions of her boyfriend entwined in a passionate embrace with another woman.

"No, no, no," she whispered, her eyes fixed on the door as if willing it to disappear.

With a deep breath, Anna pushed open the door, and her world came crashing down around her.

"Ah, ah, Laila!" her boyfriend's voice was husky with pleasure, his words dripping with deceit.

Anna's eyes widened in horror as she took in the scene before her - her boyfriend and her best friend, Laila, entwined in a passionate embrace, their bodies moving in perfect synchrony.

"Anna!" Laila's voice was laced with guilt, her eyes wide with shock.

"Get out!" Anna's voice was a barely contained scream, her eyes blazing with fury.

The room seemed to spin around her, the sounds of their betrayal echoing in her mind like a cruel mantra. Anna's heart shattered into a million pieces, her world reduced to rubble in an instant.

Laila and Jason burst out laughing, their eyes mocking Anna's naivety.

"Oh, Anna, you're so cute!" Laila sneered. "You thought you were saving yourself for marriage? How quaint!"

"Which era do you think you're from, Anna?" Jason chimed in, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "The Dark Ages?"

Anna's face burned with shame and humiliation. She felt like she was being stripped naked, her vulnerability exposed for all to see.

"You're a joke, Anna," Jason continued, his words cutting deep. "A relic of the past. No wonder you're still a virgin - no one wants you!"

Laila giggled, her eyes gleaming with malice. "Yeah, Anna, you're like a fossil from the Stone Age. Who waits till marriage anymore?"

Anna's eyes welled up with tears as she felt the weight of their ridicule. She was a laughingstock, a pitiful creature to be mocked and scorned.

"Get out, Anna," Jason sneered, his face twisted in disgust. "No one wants you here. You're a pathetic little virgin who can't even get laid."

Laila's laughter echoed through the room, a cruel and heartless sound that pierced Anna's soul.

Anna's tears spilled over, her body shaking with sobs. She felt like she was drowning in a sea of humiliation, unable to escape the cruel words that pierced her heart.

Laila's laughter echoed through the room, her eyes gleaming with malice. "Oh, Anna, you're so pathetic! You've been working your ass off, thinking you're so righteous, while I've been satisfying your boyfriend for you! And now, I'm the new girlfriend, and you're just a joke!"

Anna's face burned with shame and humiliation. "Laila, how could you?" she whispered, her voice trembling.

Laila sneered. "How could I? You mean how could I steal your boyfriend, your virginity, and your dignity all in one go? Easy, Anna, because you're a weak little girl who doesn't know how to keep a man satisfied!"

Jason chuckled, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "Yeah, Anna, you're just a relic of the past. No one wants a virgin like you. I upgraded to a real woman, Laila!"

Laila's laughter grew louder, her words cutting deeper. "You're just a joke, Anna! A pitiful little virgin who can't even keep her boyfriend satisfied! I'm the one who's got it all, and you're just a footnote in our story!"

Anna's tears fell like rain, her heart shattered into a million pieces. She felt like she was drowning in a sea of humiliation, unable to escape the cruel words that pierced her soul.

"Get out!" Jason yelled again, his voice echoing off the walls.

Anna turned and ran, her heels clicking on the floor as she fled the apartment. She didn't stop until she was out on the street, gasping for air as she hailed a cab.

As she rode away from the nightmare, Anna's mind reeled with shock and pain. She felt like she'd been living in a dream, a dream that had just been shattered into a million pieces.

The cab driver's voice broke through her haze. "Hey, miss, you okay? You look like you've lost your last friend."

Anna nodded, unable to speak. She was lost, alone, and adrift in a world that seemed to have no mercy.

The driver's words echoed in her mind as she stumbled through the next few hours. She felt like she'd lost her last friend, her last shred of dignity.

As the sun set over the city, Anna found herself at a small park, sitting on a bench, and staring blankly into space. She was a virgin, a relic of the past, a joke.

And in that moment, Anna realized that she had a choice to make. She could let the cruel words of others define her, or she could rise up and define herself.

But as she sat there, surrounded by the darkness of night, Anna wondered if she had the strength to rise again.

My BFF sent the hot stranger a voice note...
Of me saying I want to climb him like a tree.
And he just. Texted. Back.

It's the dog's fault, really.
If this untrained Great Dane I'm walking had any manners at all, I never would've ended up here:
With my leash wrapped around the most gorgeous man I've ever seen.

Lucky for me, the guy is a good sport about it.
(Although his joke that “Dogs take after their owners” hits a little too close to home when Rufus starts humping his leg.)
He leaves me with his business card and a smile that makes my knees weak.

I'm still pinching myself as me and the bestie resume our walk.
“Methinks you had a little crush on him,” she accuses.
Not thinking and a little flustered by the whole experience, I reply, “I’d wrap my legs around his waist tighter than that leash.”

THAT'S when she reveals that she'd been recording my response.
THAT'S when she gives me the most devilish grin I've ever seen and says, “You're welcome.”
And THAT'S when she hands me my phone and reveals...

She sent the recording to him.

My heart is in my throat as those three little dots appear…
Then a text.
“PROVE IT.”

Love's Deadly Equation

⬥ Keegan ⬥
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.

I should've taken the damn bus.

But no, I had to walk through the park at midnight like an idiot. Now I've seen something I can't unsee—a massive black wolf tearing apart three men, then shifting into the hottest guy I've ever laid eyes on.

Kieran Vaughn. Wealthy lawyer, werewolf, and apparently, he thinks I'm his mate.

Here's the problem: I don't do relationships. I definitely don't do supernatural things. I absolutely don't do rich guys who think they can control my life just because their inner wolf has decided I smell like home.

When hunters start targeting me to get to him, Kieran drags me into his pristine penthouse for "protection." Now I'm living with a man who looks at me like I'm his last meal, whose touch sets my skin on fire, and who's barely holding onto his control.

He says everyone he loves dies. I say that's not my problem except it is because I'm falling for this broken, dangerous man and his beast.

And in his world? Love will get you killed.
