Kruz has always been strong, disciplined, controlled, and unbreakable. Nothing prepares him for losing his mother… or what comes after.

She was supposed to walk down the aisle in white.

Instead, Sophia Hart was left standing alone in front of three hundred guests while her groom, billionaire Alexander Blackwood, announced he was leaving her for her best friend.

Humiliated, heartbroken, and burning with rage, Sophia vanished that night with five million dollars mysteriously wired into her account and a single note: This is your freedom. Use it.

For three years, she disappeared into Paris, remade into the cool, untouchable Elise Moreau under the ruthless guidance of a mentor who knew Alexander’s cruelty all too well. She learned power, seduction, and how to ruin a man without ever raising her voice.

Now she’s back in New York, a stranger to the world that once watched her fall. No one recognizes the poised Frenchwoman who walks into the room and turns every head.

Especially not Alexander.

Old sparks still burn between them, hotter and darker than before. Stolen glances across crowded ballrooms.

A brush of fingers that lingers too long. Late-night encounters in empty offices where walls echo with heavy breaths and whispered names.

He wants her.

She lets him think he can have her.

But every touch, every kiss, every fevered moment against cool glass or silk sheets is on her terms and every second brings him closer to losing everything he thought was his.

But revenge isn’t cold. It’s hot, slow, and very, very personal.

This time, she’s not the bride he left.
She’s the woman who’ll bring him to his knees.

"Go ahead and play the victim. That's all you ever do," he spat and rage flashed in her eyes.
Before he could process what she was doing, she'd grabbed him by his tie and yanked hard. They both stumbled forward and she crashed into him, her face colliding with his chest.

The King of Angels, the Lord of Judgment, Jiang You, was on the throne of heaven. Endless beings sang in unison: 'Holy! Holy! Sinners can't look upon the majesty and glory of God. Each one is crowned with a crown of jade and honored with a golden throne."

A certain Viscount, ‘Bastard!...

I was trained to seduce, to deceive, and to kill if I had to. Love was never part of the mission.

My body became my weapon, the one thing no man could ever truly own. I couldn’t give life so I learned to use sex as a tool to take whatever I wanted.

He’s infuriatingly charming, dangerously beautiful, and the reason my pulse forgets its rhythm. But when his past comes for him in the form of Dominik D’Angelo, the ruthless Mafia Don who wants him dead—my world fractures in ways no training could prepare me for.

In the city where shadows trade secrets and blood seals deals, Noah Bellion is a name whispered like a warning. They call him the Devil from Nowhere—a man of charm as sharp as the knife he hides beneath his tailored suit, a strategist who bleeds without flinching and smiles like sin itself.

Elodie, a quiet florist girl with secrets of her own, steps into his world searching for her missing brother. But Noah sees more than her desperation—he sees what she’s hiding. Something dangerous. Something he wants.

Their attraction is undeniable, but so is the quiet war between them—desire twisted with mistrust, fear tangled with fascination. Because Noah isn’t just the man who could save her. He’s also the man who could ruin her—and make her love him for it.

“You're afraid of me, Elodie… but not enough to stay away.”

"No, I still want to run. I'm afraid of you."

"Good. Fear means you know exactly what I can do to you."

At sixteen, Clara lost the last place she could call home.

After her stepmother became pregnant, her family couldn't wait to send her away. Carrying only the worn-out violin her mother left behind, Clara fled to a small town she had never even visited before.

She thought the only person waiting for her there would be a distant, cold grandmother.

She never expected that one act of kindness would lead her to Adrian Cole.

Once the school’s basketball captain and the brightest star in town, Adrian was now a quiet, withdrawn mechanic running a small repair shop. After his father disappeared, leaving behind gambling debts, Adrian had no choice but to give up his dreams and shoulder the responsibility of taking care of his family.

One of them no longer believed she deserved to be loved.

The other no longer believed he had a future worth chasing.

In a forgotten small-town high school, they went from strangers, to friends, to becoming the one person each of them could never replace.

Until a storm came, and Adrian vanished from Clara’s world, taking everything they had built with him. From that moment on, Clara learned how to live in a world without him.

Until years later, a blizzard brought them together again. And this time, Adrian had to face the girl he once loved and the pain he had left behind.

They put the calm ones on graveyard. I'm calmer than calm - I can't read a face to save my life, but give me a voice and I'll tell you what you ate for dinner and what you're lying about.

3:07 a.m. A woman calls. A struggle. The line dies.

By sunrise there's no body, no report, and the call I logged has wiped itself clean - like it never rang. The whole city is asleep on it.

But I've never trusted the system. I keep my own copy of every call.

He erased her. I kept the tape. Now he just has to find out the night guy nobody looks at has been listening the whole time.

I woke up to the truth that I had somehow ended up inside a mafia novel, cast as Richard’s “burdensome little sister.”
The day I was disfigured saving him, Richard held my hand and swore I was his only weakness.
He said even if the fire had turned me into a monster, I would still be his.
But I knew the truth. I wasn’t his weakness but the curse he could never escape.

Ten years ago, on the night of the fire, I stepped into an ocean of flames for him. In return, I got burns across sixty-three percent of my body and ten years locked inside his guilt.
Stella, the mafia heiress who loved Richard so desperately it bordered on madness, once stood beside my hospital bed, crying as she begged me to let him go.
“You’re his only weakness,” she said, her voice shaking. “The Miller Family already has their eyes on him… Please. Just set him free.”

So I put on a veil and married the man Richard hated most, Frank of the Miller Family.
At the wedding, Richard’s eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed my arm.
“Tell me the truth,” he demanded hoarsely. “Are you doing this willingly?”
Through the cheap veil covering my ruined face, I smiled at him. “Yes. I’m tired. I don’t want to be your burden anymore.”

But on our wedding night, Frank tore the veil from my head. He stared at my twisted, scarred face and sneered. “Jesus… you’re fucking ugly.”
When Frank pinned me down, my fingers brushed against the gun Richard had secretly slipped into my wedding dress.
Along with it was a bloodstained note. His handwriting was frantic, almost insane.
Just one word—Live.

And right now, my adoptive father was waiting at the North Dock with men from the Miller Family, ready to silence me for good.
Because the fire ten years ago, the one that burned my adoptive mother to death, was started by him.
Now everyone wants me dead.
But Richard…This time, for you, I’m going to stay alive, even if I have to crawl all the way to the gates of hell.

The legendary general Victor was sentenced to death, and everyone thought he had already been buried in the grave.
Until a phone call came through ,
"Dad, help!... They took Mom away."

It had only been seventeen minutes since my wife passed away. My daughter was sobbing on the phone.

"Dad, they're trying to drive me out."

I stared at the medical report in the doctor's hand.

The first natural antibody carrier.Toxin levels in the blood: zero.

The same poison that killed my wife, that killed my six-year-old son…had left me completely unharmed.

The doctor lowered his voice."Mr. Miller, you have to stay. They're sending people to pick you up."

I let out a cold laugh.

"My daughter is trapped in the basement storage room right now. Is anyone here going to help her?"

Silence fell over everyone.

I grabbed the glass water cup from the bedside table.

"Five years ago, they handed me a disciplinary penalty and fired me from the rescue team. Everyone said I was good for nothing."

The cup smashed against the floor.

I picked up the longest shard of broken glass.

"Today, I'll show you all how a useless man saves lives."

She had always wished to be a successful person with a good heart, but that never happened. After living a life as a maid after her father died, her step mom decided to sell her off into a brothel were she was bought by a ruthless Mafia who loves to inflict pain.

"Please... I'll do anything you say. I'll even be your slave."

"I'm sorry." Freida began to sob. Once the tears started, it was impossible to turn off the floodgates. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

"No. Shush," he said, pulling her in for a tight hug. He stroked her hair gently, and she almost felt comforted. "You aren't sorry. Not sorry enough."

"Not Yet."

Freida knew she would regret making such promises to a guy like Damon—a sadistic bully who would show her no mercy—but she had no other choice.

She would have to suffer to save the people she loves, and living in the hope that Damon would stick to his promise to keep her secret.

But, as cruel and twisted as Damon can be, Freida finds herself wondering if there is another side to him.

Does she have what it takes to melt a heart of stone, or will she be completely destroyed by him?

I died betrayed, drowning in regret—and saw my feared, ruthless fiancé leap to his death trying to save me.

Fate has hurled me back: I'm reborn in his arms on our drugged wedding night. This is my second chance.

The man I once ran from is my destiny. His obsessive love, my greatest weapon. I will embrace the monster the world fears and become his queen. Together, we will burn the traitors who ruined us to the ground.

But my sudden devotion makes him suspicious. How do I prove my love to the man whose heart I shattered, when his darkest desire is to bind me to him… forever?

OMG! I'm in the arms of the lead singer of my favorite band! His tongue moved swiftly and precisely, leaving the delight surging within me.

And he’s my… stepbrother?!


Between vibrant chords and passionate autographs, Lily experiences a fleeting encounter with Samuel, the lead singer of her favorite band. However, the promising night turns into a maze of surprises when she returns to reality. Answering her father's call, Lily is dragged into a new chapter of her life, where destiny weaves the threads of an unusual plot.

Upon returning home, Lily encounters the mysterious Victoria, soon to become her stepmother. Between forced cohabitation and waiting for a child who never arrives, secrets begin to emerge. In the whirlwind of emotions, Lily decides to confide in her best friend, who warns her about Samuel's past as an irresistible charmer.

An intense connection reignites, but when the truth is revealed on the wedding day, Lily discovers that her stepbrother is the man behind those fiery nights. Between passionate melodies and family secrets, they must face the consequences of a forbidden relationship, where love intertwines with blood ties.

"On your knees," Lucius said, his voice a quiet command.

Samuel's cock was in front of me now, flushed and leaking at the tip. I wrapped my hand around it, feeling its heat, the way it twitched under my touch. I stroked him once, twice, then leaned forward and took him into my mouth. He groaned, his hips jerking as I swirled my tongue around the head, tasting the bitter-salt of him.

Behind me, Edward knelt, his hands spreading my thighs wider. I felt the blunt pressure of his cock against my entrance, slick with my own wetness, and then he pushed in—slowly at first, letting me feel every inch as he filled me.

I'm Katherine, a unique being with werewolf, vampire, witch, and elf bloodlines. It's a burden and a blessing, one that sets me apart from the rest of the world.​

The Alpha triplets — Samuel, Edward, and Lucius — strong, captivating, and undeniably linked to me — are my fated mates. From the moment our paths crossed, I felt a connection that defied explanation. I'm their protector. There are forces out there, dark and menacing, that would stop at nothing to harm them, and it's my solemn duty to keep them safe.​

However, their feelings seem to go beyond the simple bond of mates.

Will I be brave enough to face the unknown and follow my heart, or will I let fear and doubt consume me?

I woke up in Hell—with a devil’s contract carved into my skin and my blood sealing the terms.
Six months ago, I was a mortal princess celebrating my nineteenth birthday. Now I’m trapped in a palace of twisted iron and burning skies, told the truth I was never meant to know: I’m not human at all. I’m the last Seraph—an extinct divine weapon reborn to stop a war that will tear reality apart.
The price? Marriage.
Six months. Seven heirs of Hell to choose from. Bind myself to one of them… or watch millions of worlds burn.
Azrael, Prince of Pride, says I belong to him. His golden eyes promise devotion and ruin in equal measure, his touch a dangerous mix of fire and ice. He swears destiny forged me for him long before I was born—but his past is stained with the ghost of a Seraph he destroyed.
Cain, the Princess of Wrath, never looks at me like a crown to be claimed. Scarred, brutal, and painfully honest, she teaches me how to fight, how to survive, how to wield the power in my veins. With her, destiny goes quiet—and something real takes its place.
Then there’s Lucian, Prince of Envy, who tells me the truth no one else will: every Seraph before me died. Broken. Devoured. Crushed by the demons they were bound to.
They want my power. My blood. My obedience.
None of them see the girl who just wants to go home—to the parents who loved her, to the life she lost.
But I’m not the fragile Seraph they expect.
I can crack marble, burn demons, and make Hell bleed. I have a friend who’d defy the Devil for me—and a will that refuses to kneel.
I don’t care about prophecies. I don’t care about crowns.
I’ll choose my own fate… even if it means defying the Devil himself.
Because in Hell, survival means becoming something they fear.
And I’m done being afraid.

“People might see us, Professor.” I tried to use some common sense, while his finger moved in and out of me, making me drenched with the gigantic horniness of the situation.

I felt his arousal against my thigh, and I rocked my hips, seeking more friction.
His mouth found my breasts, his tongue teasing my nipples to hardened peaks.
My head fell back, my breath coming in sharp gasps as pleasure coursed through me. I wanted him—needed him—with an intensity that surprised me.
Our movements became wilder, more urgent. My hands roamed over his shoulders, back, and hips, my nails digging into his skin. He thrust into me with a sharp cry, filling me completely.

I never planned to fall for my professor—let alone three of them.

First, there’s Dave, my stepmom’s ex and my first forbidden mistake.
Then Evan, the mysterious literature professor I can’t figure out.
And Cole, the older man with a kind smile and a touch that melts me.

What started as one night of passion turned into three dangerous secrets. Now, I’m pregnant—with twins.

The problem? I don’t know which one is the father.

Wait… Wife?

The priest stepped forward, and coughed to capture everyone's attention.

"It is with utmost delight that we have gathered here to witness and celebrate the union of…."

Everything faded into silence, leaving Ava sucked up in her thoughts. She imagined how her boyfriend, Trent must feel. They were both young but undeniably in love. Two days ago, she was at his place to break the news to him. Both helpless, they cried in each other's arms until Sheila came and forcefully took her.

Lost in her thought, suddenly a tap from Gale Edinburgh jolted her out of her reverie.

"Will you answer the man?!"

"Huh!"

"Do you, Ava Faine, take Gale Edinburgh as your lovely wedded husband? To cherish…"

"NO!" Ava's yell echoed throughout the building and there was ohhhs from the people expressing shocks.


Ava faine was forced to marry a man he never loved and she rebelled.

Betrayed also by her boyfriend whom she though she could confide in, she was saved by a handsome billionaire who fell in love with her.

I lay in my cage sleeping soundly when I was awoken by the Pet Master kicking my cage.
"Wake up you little bitch." the Pet Master growled and moved on to the next cage. He was followed by a tall man with a blonde hair.
"What is your name?" The man asked as he stopped in front of me. His voice was low and it sent shivers up my back.
"Mia." My voice shook as I stared at the floor.
"From now on you are to call me Master." He said to me and then turned to the Pet Master. "I'll buy her."

It has been 15 years since I was born and trained to be a pet and now I am awaiting my fate to see who will buy me.
I've never known a life outside of the pet shop and I've seen many people come and go with my friends. Maybe one day I'll be brought and I too will have a master.
But I didn't expect the day would come so early...

The Percy Family Heir's Scandal Leaks Again!

Cecilia Davis sat curled up in the master bedroom, scrolling through photos of Edward Percy and Jessica Brown.

The photos were taken secretly, but from a sharp angle.

Through a car window — the two of them, going at it hard.

Cecilia let out a cold laugh, tossed the photos into the trash, and felt a wave of deep exhaustion wash over her eyes.

"Do I really have to cut it?"

"Ma'am, this is Mr. Percy's request. Only if you cut your hair as short as Ms. Brown's can we clear up last night's rumors. Of course, you don't have to go — that is, if you never want to see your brother again."

Edward's assistant Leo spoke with a dismissive air, not a trace of respect in his eyes.

As if she, the so-called Mrs. Percy, was nothing more than a joke that nobody needed.

And honestly, that's exactly what she was.

woke up with the worst hangover of my life and a half-naked man tied to my bed.

Not just any man. Kai Donovan, my best friend's older brother, semi-pro hockey captain, and heir to the city's most dangerous crime family.

I had zero memory of how he got there. Before I could figure it out, armed men burst into my dorm room and Kai did the only thing that would keep me alive.

He claimed I was his fiancée.

Now I'm trapped in a fake engagement with the most dangerous man I've ever met. I have to move into his penthouse, attend family dinners with actual criminals, and pretend to be madly in love with him while my heart still belongs to his younger brother Asher, the sweet, golden boy I've been hopelessly in love with for three years.

The boy who just found out I'm marrying his brother and looks at me like I betrayed him.

Kai tells me this is temporary. Play the role until the threat passes, then I can have my life back.

But living with him changes everything. He's not what I expected, protective and possessive, dangerous and gentle, making me feel things I've never felt before. Every fake kiss starts feeling real. Every touch blurs the lines. And somewhere between the lies and the danger, I stop pretending.

I'm falling for Kai Donovan.

Rival families want me dead for some reasons . Asher is transferring schools because watching us together is destroying him. And people keep asking questions I can't answer.

Kai says he'll keep me safe. That he's falling for me too.

But in his world, love might not be enough to keep us both alive.

He claimed me to save my life. Now I'm his for real, and there's no going back.
