Charles Kosonen walked into a hidden bar one night expecting nothing but a good drink. He had only visited on one of his random whims, something to spice up his endlessly boring days as a man born with everything, yet utterly dissatisfied with everything. He quickly found a seat at the bar. Then he noticed a beautiful girl lingering by the stage, chatting with the band like she was their singer. Beautiful, she was, with those brilliant blue eyes, deep as sapphire, and her long black hair flowing carelessly down her back. But in the world he lived in, beauty was always in abundance, and for a pair of eyes so used to gems, even a shining jewel could start to lose its luster. The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint smirk. He'd come for the drinks, as one of his business partners had praised when recommending this place. The singing was merely an extra. Or so he thought. The moment the liquid in his crystal-clear glass touched his lips was when the girl took the stage. The moment the cold sip slid down his throat was when her lips parted. And then she sang. The glass froze in his hand. If an angel could sing, why would she choose to descend into this hidden bar, of all places? The song wasn't a particularly popular one. The band behind her was just C-class amateur. And yet, with her voice alone, she took the song, polished it into a gemstone, and made it hers. He looked around the room. It wasn't just him, but every single man present there that night had their eyes glued to her, their face a mesmerized expression. A decision was made. He would have her under his wing, no matter what it cost.

For six years, twenty-four-year-old Maya Chen pours her heart and soul into loving Derek Walsh, her fiancé and the man she thinks will be her forever. She works three jobs to support his struggling law practice, gives up her dreams of becoming a fashion designer, and sacrifices everything to make him happy. But the day before their wedding, Derek destroys her world with seven crushing words: "I'm marrying your stepsister instead of you." His reason? Her stepsister Vanessa is dying from a heart condition, and her "last wish" is to marry Derek. He promises Maya he'll come back to her after Vanessa passes away, offering her a secondhand marriage like she's a backup plan. Maya laughs bitterly and walks away from the man who broke her heart. But the betrayal cuts even deeper. Her own family—her stepmother and father—steal everything Maya owns, empty her bank accounts, and throw her out of the house she helped pay for. Everyone thinks she's trapped with nowhere to run and no one to help her. Then, in her darkest moment, a mysterious and devastatingly handsome billionaire named Ethan Stone appears in her life with an offer she can't refuse: "I'll help you get revenge, but you have to do something for me first—pretend to be my fiancée for six months." Maya agrees, not knowing that Ethan has his own reasons for wanting to destroy Derek and her family. As she transforms from a broken woman into a powerful force, she discovers she's carrying Derek's baby—a secret that could ruin everything. When Maya returns to face her enemies, victorious and unbroken, Derek falls to his knees, begging for forgiveness.

Mature (R-18+) Three years of marriage. Three years of silence, loneliness, no recognition, and now... betrayal. Elara Frost thought love meant patience, that one day her husband would finally see her emotions, her love, and her care, and choose her, cherish her as she did. But the only thing he gave her was loneliness and indifference. And thus, when his affection for his secretary shadowed her entirely, shattered her illusions, and made her realize that she was never anything to him, never more than a pawn, she walked away. Everyone who knew them thought she would fade away without him, that she wouldn't survive a day without the luxurious life her husband provided, but did they really know her, the real her? She didn't leave to disappear; she went to return as someone untouchable, someone her ex couldn't dare to provoke, and someone every man desired and every family wanted as their daughter-in-law. When her real identity was revealed, it left everyone shocked. She returned as the real heiress, with connections to the underworld. She returned as the woman everyone needed to bow to and fear, wrapped in diamonds and draped in the drapes of vengeance. After being betrayed once, Elara vowed she would never fall in love again, but the queens aren't safe from love either. She isn't left with much choice when her childhood fiancé returns from abroad, promising her the world she never had. Snippet: "I would be a fool to fall for a man again after everything that life has made me go through," Elara confessed, her expression edgy, a solemn hint crossing her eyes. "In that case, don't fall for me, Miss Elara. Instead, let me fall for you. Because I know for sure, you are worth fighting for," Daniel Macros said, his eyes holding nothing but pure obsession, something she had never experienced before. Elara thought dealing with one persistent pursuer was hard enough, but what would she do when her ex-husband knelt before the entire world, begging for her to return? Will she let the old flame of her love burn again, or will she let Daniel's calm presence sweep her off her feet? Disclaimer: The story is participating in the Viral Book Call 2025. Please support.

[WELCOME, GAMBLER!] That was the first message Judas Crown saw when the slot machine blew apart in a burst of purple light. One moment he was wasting his last dollar in Las Vegas Casino and the next-- [HAREM ROULETTE UNLOCKED!] [SPIN OR DIE.] Judas quickly learned the rules: 1. Every spin rewrites his fate. 2.

Break the wheel. And make sure the house never wins.
