Passionate_Lebeko
Beneath the glimmering surface of wealth and power, the lives of the elite are steeped in forbidden desire, dangerous secrets, and a thirst for revenge. Adrian Kane, a commanding CEO with a magnetic charm, has it all—success, influence, and a picture-perfect marriage. But his affair with the seductive and fiercely independent Selena Cruz threatens to unravel everything. When Selena discovers she’s pregnant, the line between passion and peril blurs. Adrian demands silence. She refuses. Vivienne Kane, the elegant and ruthless wife, isn’t the type to be replaced or fooled. Behind her icy smile lies a dark agenda, and she’ll stop at nothing to reclaim what’s hers. Even if it means orchestrating a scandal that shatters lives. Enter Detective Jace Monroe, brooding, relentless, and unknowingly drawn into a twisted web of lies. As he investigates a case tied to Adrian’s empire, he’s entangled in the secrets of the Kane household…and the heat of Selena’s world. When vows are broken, lies become weapons, and vengeance is served cold, love becomes the deadliest game of all.

Prey Amongst Predators

On the brink of death, Sol had expected nothing more than eternal peace from his lifelong suffering. But instead, fate dealt him an unexpected hand. The Melvires, a renowned family, rescued him that night, and his fate was rewritten. A man who called himself his father, along with the four sons who bore no resemblance to him, offered a life so far removed from his own, it felt like fiction. Ever since then, he had done everything in his power to make himself worthy of the life they gave him. Yet even as the years passed, some truths remained hard to ignore. The Melvires carried themselves with an elegance that seemed inborn, an air of distinction no effort could replicate. No matter how hard he tried, Sol always felt like an outsider trailing behind them–grateful, but never equal. Nevertheless, he dedicated himself to their service, believing loyalty was the least he could offer in return. But everything shattered the night he turned twenty when the veil was lifted. The Melvires finally revealed the sharp claws hidden behind their velvet gloves. Sol was nothing more than a sacrifice. The crown of their design. He fought hard to escape their reign of terror, but the more he resisted, the steeper the slope became. Every path forward was walled in inevitability. His spirit waned beneath the weight of isolation and betrayal, until all that remained was resignation. Perhaps this was simply the closing of a circle. If his life was the price for everything he had been given, then so be it. He opened his arms, ready to embrace death again, just as he had all those years ago. But what was with their sudden change in attitude? Why, after all the pain they had inflicted, did they now seem… wounded?
