Married for Money, Buried for Revenge

I married him to save my family. I lost myself instead. Georgia Steele was raised to believe that marriage was duty, sacrifice, and obedience. When her father’s empire begins to crumble, she is offered as a solution to a powerful older man who promises security in exchange for her future. At first, her new life is gilded and controlled, beautiful on the surface and suffocating beneath it. Then another man appears. Charming, attentive, and seemingly everything her husband is not, he offers her escape and love. She follows him willingly, believing she has chosen freedom. She is wrong. What begins as rescue becomes captivity. What feels like devotion turns into domination. Georgia is isolated inside a vast mansion where her memories are questioned, her movements monitored, and her sanity slowly dismantled. When she resists, she is medicated. When she speaks, she is silenced. When she tries to escape, the world is taught to believe she is unstable. Locked beneath the house in a hidden cellar, Georgia is erased from existence while her captor builds a new life above her. As months turn into years, Georgia survives through pain, hallucination, and rage. Another woman is brought into the house, then another, each one unknowingly stepping into the same trap. In the darkness below, Georgia’s mind fractures, hardens, and evolves. What is buried does not stay silent forever. This is a story of psychological imprisonment, gaslighting, female suffering, and the terrifying resilience of a woman pushed beyond her breaking point. It is not a love story. It is a descent, a haunting, and ultimately, a reckoning. When the truth finally surfaces, it will not come gently. Some houses are built to destroy women. Others are meant to burn.

The billionaire's contract wife, His true bride.

He grabbed my blonde hair and yanked my head back, almost ripping strands from my scalp. The pain was sharp and immediate “Clean it,” he hissed, his voice calm, almost bored. “Every drop. I don’t want to see a stain.” I bit my lip until I tasted blood. “Yes… sir,” I whispered, my voice barely holding together. I was born into an average, loving family in West Virginia, and I once dreamed of graduating from a prestigious culinary school and becoming an international professional chef. My life collapsed when loan sharks scammed and destroyed my father’s business. Our savings vanished overnight. Bankruptcy drove him into deep depression which led to a fatal illness, that took his life, draining the family's remaining resources. Not long after, my mother fell ill too, bedridden as if grief had drained her. With no one left to rely on, I became the sole provider for my family, my sick mother and my younger brother. I juggled countless menial jobs, enduring humiliation, insults, and unwanted advances to pay the bills, until I secured a position as the head chef at the Vanders mansion in Maryland. I thought it was my miracle. I was wrong. I stepped into a world ruled by jealousy, cruelty, and hidden schemes. Anders Vanders, handsome, charming, a model adored by women grew drawn to me while secretly sleeping with his stepbrother’s wife, Linda Martins. Linda, beautiful street slut had been chosen by Mrs. Clardy, the late Mr. Vanders’ second wife as a pawn to destroy Brian Vanders, the heir to the Vanders Enterprise. Brian was cold, expressionless and scarred by years of mistreatment. Yet from the moment I arrived, something in him shifted. And that change made me a target. Mrs. Clardy noticed. And from that moment on, my suffering truly began.

Chains Of Ascension

The world believes the gods fell long ago. What it doesn’t realize is that they were never destroyed — only bound. Vaeloria is a land ruled by hierarchy. Power defines worth, birth decides fate, and ancient systems of ascension keep the strong above the weak. At the center of it all lie the Origin Chains, relics from a forgotten age that are said to govern power itself. Kael Dravenhart is born without status, without talent, and without a future anyone cares about. In a world obsessed with strength, that makes him invisible. Until the chains respond. Marked by the forbidden Mythic Trait known as Chain Sovereign, Kael gains an ability that should not exist — the power to see and influence the bindings that control growth, power, and ascension. What begins as a chance to survive quickly turns into something far more dangerous. Because in Vaeloria, power is political. As Kael rises, he draws the attention of noble houses, imperial authorities, ancient cults, and entities that remember what the world once was. Every step forward tightens the noose around him. Every breakthrough reveals another truth buried by history. The chains were not created to help mortals ascend. They were created to keep gods from returning. Caught between empires that want to control him and forces that want him erased, Kael is forced to confront a choice no one before him has faced — submit to the system that governs the world, or tear it apart link by link. Because if the Origin Chains begin to break, ascension will no longer be limited… and the heavens will no longer remain silent. Chains of Ascension is a dark progression-fantasy series focused on steady power growth, political conflict, ancient myths, and a protagonist who refuses to accept the limits imposed on him — no matter the cost.
