Lucien was killed by Victor, his ex boss from Casino who wanted to snatch the wife he loved, his body covered in blood buried underground. He died carrying a huge grudge. Just before the angel took him to heaven, Lucien met Lucifer and exchanged his soul so that he could come back to life, not a human, but a werewolf.

Thinking that his wife betrayed him by living with Victor, Lucien meets Sephie, a fox demon who offers him to join "The Hunters", a mysterious cult created by the demi-demon that Lucifer resurrected with the same goal of revenge.

Have you ever had a crush on your best friend and you didn't dare confess...
That's my fate, my name is Amy and I had a secret crush on my best friend, the Alpha Prince of Westwood Pack.
I'd rather remain Jade's friend forever than lose him. That was my plan until my 18th birthday.
"Why am I mated to two?"
One is my best friend. The other is his enemy.
Jade shrugged. "Since the night I turned 18." Years of hiding while he broke hearts. When I begged for loyalty, he smirked: "I can't give up my free lifestyle."
So I let Nile in, gentle, devoted, everything Jade wasn't. Until I found his "parents' house" empty for five years. "No one has lived here," the neighbor said.
Now I'm caught between the mate who won't change and the mate who might not be real. And someone is hunting us, someone who wants the Alpha Prince dead.
Keeping my crush secret was simple. Choosing between two lies? That's tearing me apart.

Suddenly June's social life takes a turn, blossoming as she gets to know JJ's best friends, and eventually even the bad boy himself.
Can these two deny their attractions for one another or will they fall into the temptation of the forbidden fruit?

Allison was a good girl and straight-A student. To avoid being harassed, she put on a pair of thick glasses to hide her gorgeous face.
On her first day of school, she got lost and went to the wrong classroom. Instead of being greeted by a teacher, she ran into a guy and a girl engaging in intimate behavior.
The guy turned around from the girl he had pressed against the wall. Oh, he was Chase, the most attractive guy at Ashtonville High.
Allison apologized and fled away, which left a deep impression on Chase. After school, Chase trapped Allison in between Allison's locker and his chest.
"You know, you look a lot like my next girlfriend," Chase smirked, waiting for Allison's submission.
Unexpectedly, Allison replied, "And you look exactly like the guy I'll reject in 2 seconds."
"Trust me, the good girl always falls for the bad boy," Chase swore he would win Allison over...

“What did I promise would happen if you threw another punch, Artemis?” Professor Lucian's silky tone hardened into a dark fascinating baritone.

“Let me see…” Artemis licked his lips with a menacing smile, his cold dark eyes piercing through the professor's oceanic ones. “You said you'll bring me to my knees but something tells me I'll do more than just begging.”

The air in the room shifted as the older man took a step closer.

“Hit me, Artemis,” Lucian took another step closer. “Every second you hesitate, your punishment doubles.”

Artemis lips curled in a smirk as he stepped closer. He raised his hand slowly to the professor's lips but the older man caught it before it could make contact.

An amused chuckle rumbled in his chest.

“Twenty seconds gone, Professor. You better punish me hard,” he smirked.


Artemis McAlester was feared for two reasons. His ability to break anything and his power to own everything. Kingston College was his playground until a red-haired professor with oceanic blue eyes and a dangerous intolerance for spoiled bullies.

Not only did Lucian defy every rule he set, but he was also the one thing Artemis couldn’t own. And that defiance? It was the sexiest thing of all.

Except Lucian wasn't someone he could break. To own the blue-eyed professor, Artemis would have to do the unthinkable. Submit. Break. Let himself be owned.

As long as the only thing between them was desire and pure unadulterated hate.

"I don't want to ever see your fucking face again, you morone." "You will have to come over here and keep me busy before I can stay far away from you."

I froze in horror, he was so fucking gorgeous, he made my clit twitch every single time he opened his mouth to say a word and I am aware that he is a bad boy, but why can't I stay far away from him? Why can't I follow my instincts? Why does being with him and having him in me feel so perfect?

"Hey everyone, I know you all saw the picture of Victoria and me on the school's page
but that's just a picture, my real girl is right over there," he said and pointed at me
as everyone including the guy videoed Jones.
Jones walked to me, "And to prove she's my real girlfriend
I would kiss her right in front of everyone," he said before I could do anything
Jones grabbed me and kissed me as everyone except Victoria and her girls cheered us.
After the kiss, Jones walked to the guy videoing us and collected his phone,
then he posted the video on the school's social page.

"Why did you invite me into your home, Lydia? Aren't you afraid of me? Didn't you say that you were going to file a restraining order against me?"

She only blinked a few times in utter bewilderment, clearly taken aback by his words as she slowly turned around to face him.

"I-I was just...H-he was drunk and I know he can become a very difficult person to deal with when drunk," She rushed to explain as she dared look up into his oddly captivating eyes.

"Didn't seem like it to me," He tilted his head, his gaze becoming more and more intense with each passing second as it roamed all over her slowly heating up face, lowering to take a look at the state of her dressing.

"I-I...My mom would've killed me if she ever would've found out that he was here," She stammered, struggling to keep herself in check.

"Yeah, but you're alone with me now. You're alone and defenceless, and you invited me into your home. There are a thousand things I could do to you right now and no one would be able to save you from me," He so calmly said as he took a step even closer, their bodies being so close to touching with each ragged breath, her limbs already starting to shake at the sound of that.

The sane can turn you insane.❞ Anger. That's all he feels but when a certain kind of light sheds on his life, resistance is the solution.

My name is Thomas Rodriguez, and I found myself stranded on an unnamed deserted island following a plane crash. As the saying goes, "Great misfortune promises great fortune." At the outset, with a beauty in one hand and supplies in the other, watch how I create a diverse community on this nameless island. However, in the face of treacherous human nature and an emerging mysterious civilization, where will destiny lead me?

“You are my mate,” he growled, his voice blending with his wolf’s. “You’re not leaving me again.”

Ella’s fury ignited. “Alpha Derek,” she spat, her voice trembling with barely contained anger. “I am not your mate anymore. Control your damn wolf.” She shoved him aside with surprising strength, her power flaring, leaving Derek momentarily stunned. She didn’t look back as she walked away, leaving him standing there, lost in disbelief.

€€¥¥€€

I was meant to be Alpha Kevin's Luna.
Until I found him with my stepsister.
That night, I ran…
Right into the arms of my true mate.

Alpha Derek.
One night. One bond.
Then he rejected me too.

They both betrayed me.
And when I found out I was pregnant — I vanished.

Years later, I’m no longer the broken girl they discarded.
Now I’m a healer. A legend. A power unseen and untouchable.
But the past never stays dead. Does it?
Because Derek’s back.
And he’s not the only one.

The powerful men come crawling.
Kevin wants me back as his Luna
Derek wants redemption.
The Vampire Lord wants my soul.
And his brother? He wants my power to destroy the two worlds.

They all want a piece of me.
Let them fight over me. I don't care
Because I’m done being their prize.

This time, I choose who I become.

For seven years, I told myself James wasn't cold; he simply loved quietly. Then my car died after midnight, and he told me to call a cab. When I earned the promotion I had chased for two years, he forgot my message. But when his ex said she felt sick, he left work with medicine in one hand and her exact coffee order in the other. That was when I understood: my husband knew how to care. He had simply never chosen to care for me. By our anniversary, I would stop waiting, leave his gift on the table, and move out. Only then would James begin to love me—and by then, it would be too late.

“Dad… please… help me…” I pleaded, my shattered ribs piercing my lungs, blood soaking the stretcher.
But Richard, the hospital's top surgeon and my biological father, didn't even glance at me. Instead, he rushed to the next bed.
“Don't be afraid, Chloe. I'm here,” he cooed to his stepdaughter, who merely had a tiny scratch on her arm. “Get the best equipment over here now!” he roared.
As the heart monitor flatlined and my soul left my broken body, I realized the chilling truth: in the choice between life and death, my father gladly let me die.

The remote vacation villa was saturated with suffocating male testosterone.
Deep in the night, my life-saving suppressants inexplicably vanished. The moment the drugs wore off, my unspeakable secret—my sex addiction—unleashed its most violent, lethal backlash in history.
What was even more fatal was that, through a twisted twist of fate, the man I was forced to share a room with tonight was my stepbrother, renowned for his absolute abstinence and cold, iron-fisted ruthlessness.
I thought that once my embarrassingly out-of-control, in-heat state was exposed, he would treat me like a monster and kick me away in disgust.
But I never expected—
This aloof man, who usually wouldn't even spare me a glance, now carried an irresistible, scorching aggression, ruthlessly sliding his large, rough hand straight up my thoroughly soaked panties...

My husband's childhood sweetheart lost her entry for the competition,
so he gave mine to her.
It was I who saved him all those years ago,
and that's why he married me.
But he turned his back on me right after our wedding.
I've been childhood sweetheart all these years.
But this time,
I suddenly feel like this marriage has lost all its meaning.
After handing in the transfer request I had prepared long ago to the factory director,
I rejected his offer to stay.
I can't bear to stay in this place for another day.
I want to go to New York,
start a new chapter in my life,
and let everything that happened before just drift away. all its meaning.

The President’s daughter. Two professional athletes. One colossal scandal. They'll prove that two bad boys are better than one.

I despise arrogant bad boys, especially when they move in next door, loud and obnoxious. Even if they are muscular, tattooed, and dangerously attractive.

I’m the epitome of a good girl – successful, responsible, and intelligent. I have to be; the entire nation is watching.

I am the daughter of the President of the United States.

Dating one filthy, cocky, possessive football player would be a scandal of epic proportions.

Falling for TWO arrogant athletes during my father's re-election campaign?

That's a whole different level of trouble.

I’m in double the trouble.

Some bad decisions come back to bite you. Literally.

After finding out her boyfriend cheated, the last thing she expected was to stumble across a wounded man in an alley. And definitely not one with fangs. But thanks to a mix of cocktails, shame, and her questionable life choices, she takes him home. Turns out, he’s not just any vampire—he’s a king. And according to him, she’s his fated mate.

Now, she’s stuck with an overprotective, brooding bloodsucker who keeps rescuing her, a growing list of enemies who want her dead, and an undeniable attraction that’s making it very hard to remember why falling for a vampire is a terrible idea.

Because if she’s not careful, she won’t just lose her heart—she’ll lose her humanity.

Lev" I breathed out pulling my lips away but still leaving his arms around my body.

His eyes fell but he quickly masked it up with a sudden determination, "Reject him" he suddenly said, shocking me to my very core.

My heart stilled, "What?" I whispered, unable to hide my shock.

"Reject him, Ri. Come be with me" he said again, his voice even stronger this time.

I couldn't hold in my shock as I removed his hands from my body and stepped away.

"Lev..." he can’t be serious.

"Come on, Ri. Don’t look at me that way, he doesn’t want to but I do. I want you so damn much, Ri" he said with pain in his voice.

"But that doesn't make it right. What if you find your mate, what then happens to her?" I asked, still struggling to believe the words he just said.

Aria was born to love the wrong people,first a mother who despised her, then a best friend she could never keep, and now, a mate who rejects her to protect his pride.
Kael Darius Draven is the Alpha heir every she-wolf dreams of being with except the one fate has bound him to.
To the world, he denies their bond. In the shadows, he can’t stay away.
But when Aria’s forced to tutor him to keep her scholarship, secrets ignite, loyalty shatters, and the truth becomes impossible to hide

A new town. A new start. A new school. That is too much new for me. I hated that my parents took me away from my home, my friends and my school, but sometimes that just how life is. I knew this school wouldn't be any different anyway. I would still be invisible. I would still probably be picked on, and no one would want to date me, but that is the story of my life, no matter where I am.

Well, that is what I thought. I was proven wrong on my first day when I caught the attention of someone. Asher! The schools bad boy. I chose not to trust him, because let's face it, you should never trust a bad boy because they have all the wrong intentions.

But, I was soon proven wrong because he became something I never knew that I needed. He shows me how to live life in a way I never imagined. He becomes the one person I experience many first with.

Even when it felt like the rest of the world was trying to pull me down, Asher is the one pulling me right back up. No one said life was easy, and that is true, especially when the people around us do everything they can to keep us apart.

Nothing worth it, is ever easy, though.

He was a young and intelligent 22yr old man who had recently gotten his masters, a few years after he'd graduated from college. Oh, he sure had attended the best schools. He'd attended highschool in a prestigious school in Istanbul, and had gotten his first degree in Dubai. As well as his masters. He was quite educationally accomplished at such a young age. One thing that made his parents very proud.

The only thing, that made his parents proud.

"Here's the deal: for the next few weeks, you are going to play the role of my girlfriend. Publicly. You will be seen with me on campus, at events, and anywhere else I require. Do that, and maybe I'll consider not reporting you and your sister for falsifying college documents."
"No," I stammered, shaking my head immediately. "Absolutely not. That's insane."
"You have twenty-four hours to think about it, freshman," he said, ignoring my refusal.
When freshman Briselle accidentally crosses paths with Kai Thornefield, the untouchable senior with a violent reputation and a past no one dares mention, her quiet college life spirals out of control. One lie turns into a deal. One deal turns into a fake relationship. But nothing about Kai feels fake.
He's dangerous, possessive, and unpredictably gentle. In public, he's the perfect boyfriend. In private, he's chaos wrapped in control. What started as blackmail turns into something dangerously real, blurring the line between pretense and desire.
But Kai's secrets run deeper than family money. His past is a battlefield of betrayal, loss, and a father who would trade love for obedience. When jealousy and revenge twist the game, Briselle becomes the weapon everyone wants—and the only person who might bring Kai to his knees.

“You want answers?” he said. “Then step closer.”
Against every instinct I trusted, I stepped.

Kai’s hand snapped around my wrist, pinning it against his chest. Not to restrain me, but to warn me.

“You don’t get to make that choice,” he said softly. “Not with me.”

“Then why tell me to step closer?”

“To see if you’d obey,” he said. “And you did.”

That’s how trouble starts…when the wrong man decides your choices belong to him.

When the earthquake struck, my fated mate—Alpha Cassian—instinctively shielded me with his body, taking the full impact and breaking nearly every bone.
In the hospital room, the girl next door sighed enviously. "Luna Yolanda,Alpha Cassian risked his life to save you. He really loves you."
I forced a smile. "Yes."
But just last night, after I had fallen asleep, he slipped into the bathroom and spoke in a gentle voice, comforting his eighteen-year-old mistress—Rosalind Graves.
"I'm fine, don’t cry, be good."
"As long as I think of you, I'm not afraid of anything."
Cassian and I grew up together. From first love to now, it has been ten years.
We are the Blue Moon Pack’s model mates—admired by all.
No one knows he has a secret lover.
A girl who looks just like me when I was eighteen.

"Are you afraid of me?" He said, dropping his hand from my arm and wrapping it around my waist.

"I-I d-don't, I-I c-can't." I struggled to speak but I couldn't get any words out.

He let go of me and raked his hand through his hair.

"What is it about you?" He asked and grazed my cheeks with his fingers lightly. "Sorry birdie but I can't stop myself anymore. I'm going to kiss you now.”

Cody Baker, the bane of my existence.
The school bad boy, and my ex-best friend.

We grew up together, and we used to be close. He was the one I told my secrets to, and he told me his until he changed. He turned into someone I did not know. He turned into the kind of guy he used to hate.

The moment he changed, we fell apart. A part of me hated him, and he knew it. He spends his day annoying me, trying to add me to just another notch on his bedpost. I would not lower myself to that. I was no angel, but I was not stupid enough to go there.

It is bad enough that I still have to see him every day at school. My only sanctuary away from him is my house, somewhere he rarely came to, but now even that has been taken away from me. He is coming to stay with us for two weeks while his mother is out of town. I need to try my best not to kill him while he is here.

I dread it from the second my mother told me, but it is amazing how things can change in such a short space of time.

After a terrible breakup, I did what any heartbroken girl would do—I downloaded a dating app. That’s where I met Lucien. Dark, mysterious, and effortlessly charming, he was everything I wanted in a man. Our connection was instant, electric, and for the first time in a long time, I felt alive.

But Lucien had secrets.

It started with the white wolf—a terrifying creature that stalked me and my best friend, dragging us into a hidden world of wereshifters, beings we never imagined were real. A world where Lucien wasn’t just some guy I met online—he was part of something ancient, powerful, and dangerous. And he was the Alpha. Then came the biggest betrayal of all. Lucien was supposed to be engaged—to her. The white wolf wasn’t just any predator; she was his ex-fiancée, a creature scorned, and she wasn’t just furious—she was vengeful. Worse, her brother was even more ruthless, and together, they were out for blood. My blood.

Can Lucien save me? Or will he become one of my predators?

"What if I decide to give you all the money? Be my fuck mate for one month. I'll pay for your mother's surgery and sponsor your education."
When life pushed Isabella Parker to the edge, she had only one choice, to sell the only thing she had left: herself. Her mother was dying, the bills were piling up, and the world had turned its back on her. That was when Kade Gilbert, the arrogant, cold-hearted bad boy, made her an offer she couldn't refuse.
But Isabella didn't know that Kade wasn't a guy who honored boundaries. He didn't just want her for a month, he wanted to own her. To mark her. To make her forget who she was before he came into the picture.
"You're mine to touch, no one else's," he growled, his voice dark and commanding, igniting a fire she'd never felt before.
What began as a desperate deal soon turned into a dangerous obsession. Will Isabella lose her heart to a monster who only takes, or will she find the strength to refuse the one man who refuses to let her go?

Brooklyn Payne and Jacob Rodriguez couldn't be more opposites even if they tried. They both come from different backgrounds. While Brooklyn, who is the daughter of music legend Damon Payne and Diamond Records and President Heather Payne. Jacob, on the other hand, is the oldest of two and is the son of LA's leading lawyers Addison Richards and a deadbeat father who left his family for his lover. Jacob-on his own way-was popular but he tended to hang with the trouble makers leading to him being labeled as the school's bad boy which he took in stride. He's hooked up with pretty much every girl in school aside from the Payne sisters who were considered royalty because of who their family was.

Brooklyn and Jacob's lives were about to take an unexpected turn when Brooklyn -who wakes up in bed next to him the night after a party their classmate had thrown-gets the news that she wasn't expecting, that they're having a baby. How will the school's resident bad boy react? Will he leave Brooklyn to raise another child on her own, or will he step up? Only time will tell.

"I'd like to make a deal with you." I swallowed hard.
“A deal? What kind of deal?”
With all the desperation in me, I summoned the courage and spoke up, "Take me as your mate."
Thrown out by her father, betrayed by her mate and best friend, Lena had nothing left but a dying mother and the determination to save her.
Lena was alone, cornered and desperate.
That’s when he appeared, an enigmatic Alpha with storm-grey eyes and a secret of his own. He needed a mate. She needed a miracle.
So she offered a deal:
A fake bond. A contract marriage. No feelings. No strings.
He saved my mother. She helped him silence his bloodthirsty Council who demanded for his mate
But as the full moon nears and their fake bond begins to grow into something real.
Something… not part of the deal.
Her heart began to ache at the thought of leaving. Would she be able to walk away easily?

My ears were ringing in the sudden blast. Both me and James were utterly shocked. We looked at each other with widened eyes. In the meantime a few more guys entered the cafe. Each one of them had guns in their hands. If this isn't a crime movie scene that I'm probably dreaming of right now, please save me God!

'EVERYONE OUT!! one of the gun holding men shouted from behind. The remaining customers ran outside. A proper moment of chaos.

Just when i was trying to get out that boy from earlier grabbed my wrist. Didn't they mean everyone?. A sudden rush of terror flashes over me.

"Where are you going dollface?" I can see his lips twitching up in a smirk. A devilish smirk. I feel my heart just dropped to the ground.

"Meet Isabella Grace, a college student who just wants a peaceful life. But her fate changes drastically in a single night when she meets Toby, the Mafia boss. Will she give in to him, or resist his flames?"

When the Manhattan morgue finally managed to reach my husband, Victor Hawthorne, he was in the penthouse suite, fucking another woman.
"Mr. Hawthorne, this is the city morgue. We need you to come down and identify your wife's remains."
"Identify what?" he snapped, his thrusts not missing a beat.
"Burn her," he ordered. "Don't bother me with her pathetic ploys."
He tossed the phone onto the nightstand, his focus entirely on the woman beneath him.
Then my body was pushed into the incinerator.
When I was nothing but ashes, the funeral home called him again.
Selena pouted, trailing a nail down his chest.
"Is Cecilia acting up again?"
"I'll go end this farce," Victor sneered, getting out of bed.

In front of me, Daniel kissed his childhood sweetheart.

He said he married me only for the benefits, without any feelings for me.

He even threatened me to give his sweetheart a heart transplant.

I agreed.

But after the transplant, he regretted it. I, however, smiled.

Women are born liars. They will suck the life out of you until you don’t believe in yourself. That is how the universe revolves. So my rules are simple. One night. No real names. No repeats. Every week, it should be a different woman. She should be blonde, sexy, and preferably not expecting more... Until one liar changes everything.

Once upon a time, I had a crush on the intense, sexy beast Lucas Alejandro. I first saw him at my mom and my stepfather’s wedding, but I didn’t think he would ever notice me. Because for Luke, I was off-limits. But after six long years, a twist of fate could be a little playful.

Imagine being sent to kill the most ‘unkillable’ man in the underworld—The Big Bad Alpha.
If you fail, he kills you without mercy. And everyone else who ever tried failed. How then can you, a lone female assassin, kill this monster?

You decide to do it against all odds but when you get there, BOOM! The deadliest Alpha alive is your mate.

✧✧✧

Wayne Knight stepped into the room and Olive's heart thudded loudly. He was the most powerful Alpha in the country, and she was sent to assassinate him. But she failed and was caught, which meant he would not have any mercy on her. He was going to kill her mercilessly and ruthlessly.

But why was she loving the scent of him since he stepped into the room?

Why did she love his gaze on her despite being scared?

And why was he not breaking his eye contact with her ever since he entered the room?

Well, her wolf growled her the answer to all her questions...“MATE.”

"Cry, Mermaid!" a sharp lash sliced into my back, forcing a yelp from my lips. Screams and sobs surrounded me on all sides, but no one would save me. Strong hands caught me beneath my arms and yanked me from the water. It was time for Tail Cut.

The operation lasted hours. I felt every last slice of their blades, every new tendon sewn into my muscles and nail hammered into my bones. I screamed. I begged. I begged for them to stop, for them to kill me, just ended the pain.

I have a secret, I am a mermaid.

I should live in the ocean, but my tail was cut and I only owned legs. After escaping to Asterion, I hid my identity. I thought I could finally live a peaceful life, until that day I met the famous bad boy, the future Alpha, Caspian.

I felt a strange prickling on the back of my neck. I spun around just in time to see Caspian prowling towards me through the darkened wings, his blue eyes positively glowing. Sharp white teeth flashed as Caspian's lips unfurled into a lethal grin, "Hello Mate."

Elena stifled a smile, but he already saw her mouth start to curve upwards and he grinned at her. She ignored him. "I'm serious, Chandler."

His smile was instantaneous. "Noted."

She licked her lips. Her eyes were wide and nervous, and she tucked a stray hair behind her ear. "And you can't kiss me."

Chandler tilted his head to the side and studied her. Pushing away from the car, he took a step closer to her. She held her ground, lifting her chin at his approach.

"What if you ask me to kiss you?" he said quietly. "Then can I?"

Elena exhaled shakily. "I won't do that."

"No?" Carefully, he touched his thumb to the curve of her chin. She shook her head, and his hand fell away. "Maybe you won't," he told her. "But hear me right now, love, I'd love it if you asked me for a kiss."

They called him a "flickering candle" in a world of eternal ice.

Asher was born an anomaly among the vampire aristocracy, a high-born noble with a beating human heart. In a society that worships the cold and the dead, his warmth was a mark of shame. Betrayed by his kin and stripped of his rank, he was cast into the "Blood Pits" to be drained and forgotten.

But the aristocrats made a fatal mistake. They didn't realize that while their ancient blood is stagnant and cold, Asher’s heart is a Living Forge. Every beat of his heart refines his blood into a concentrated, golden energy that hasn't been seen since the age of the First Progenitors.

Asher isn’t just fighting for survival, though. He is driven by the memory of Charlotte, the daughter of the High Sovereign and the most beautiful woman in the Night Realm. To the world, she is a Frozen Goddess, untouchable and cold. To Asher, she is the only person who ever looked at him with something other than disgust.

Now, as Charlotte is used as a pawn in a political marriage to the man who ruined him, Asher’s blood begins to boil. He will tear his way out of the pits, evolve through the ranks of the undead, and burn down the old world to claim his place at her side.

The Failure is coming back for his throne. He will prove that the strongest steel isn't found in the grave, it’s forged in the pulse of the Iron Blood.

My adopted sister, Cordelia, conspired with her biological mother to harvest my organs alive, yet she had the audacity to claim I paid thugs to rape her.
My biological parents didn't bother to ask for the truth. They cursed me, calling me a vicious bastard, and threatened to break my legs.
My fiancé, Caspian, coldly announced the cancellation of our engagement, declaring he would marry the very murderer who killed me.
I had been dead for exactly three days. No one cared. My body was rotting back in a moldy storage room.
Through it all, my soul was trapped in the manor, forced to witness this absurd farce.
But what they didn't expect was that when they finally learned of my death—
Everyone went completely insane.

On our third wedding anniversary, I excitedly told my husband the news of my pregnancy, but he demanded I abort the child and divorce him!

To protect the baby in my womb, I fled!

Five years later, I returned with two children and had become an unreachable miracle doctor in the medical field, with countless suitors!

My bastard husband regretted everything. He apologized through a live broadcast and begged me to remarry him on bended knee.

I dismissed him with disdain. You were the one who wanted the divorce, you were the one who wanted me to abort the child. Regretting it now? Too late!

My two children also threw punches and kicks at him:

"Bad Daddy, you actually wanted to abort us!"
