March 15, 1972. Antique restorer Samuel Blackwood was found dead at his workbench. The night before his death, he sealed a shard no larger than a fingernail into the chamber of a spectrometer. On a yellowed note beside it, he left a single line—addressed to a grandson who had not yet been born: “For Eli. He can see.” November 15, 2023. 2:17 a.m. Twenty-seven-year-old Elias Blackwood opened his grandfather’s old cigar box. The shard sliced into his palm. Blood welled up, soaked into the fragment— and in exchange, his eyes awakened. There was no blackout. No pain. No price to pay. No rules. He only blinked once. And suddenly, the pocket watch in his coworker Bob’s hand changed. A thin veil of pale blue mist drifted across its surface, flowing like smoke in slow motion. Eli knew what it meant. A Patek Philippe. 1923 edition. Bob had bought it for eighty dollars. Eli saw its true value: One hundred and twenty thousand. From that moment on, the world revealed all its hidden cards to him. From scavenging at Los Angeles flea markets… to walking away with $470 million from the Antwerp diamond auctions. From challenging the century-old monopoly of the Nine Crowns Consortium… to forcing Middle Eastern princes to kneel and offer him private islands. From restoring a Madonna statue burned fifty-one years ago… to rewriting the global diamond pricing system under one name: Blackwood. He spent twenty-seven years entering this world. And only twenty-seven months making the world remember him.

Evelyn Walters was the perfect heiress, until one reckless night with her father’s greatest enemy ruined everything. Pregnant, disgraced, and cast out of the Walters family, she left with nothing but her unborn child. Years later, she's survived. But as a single mother, the life she built was fragile until the man from her past discovered the truth. Now he wants her and his son. But how can Evelyn trust the father of her child... when he's also the enemy of the man who raised her? **** Excerpt: "B-Boss... the woman you slept with that night... she wasn't the supermodel the company just signed," Dylan stammered, his voice trembling. Axel's brow furrowed even further. He tried digging through the hazy, alcohol-soaked memories of that night.  Of course, he remembered the party. He remembered the whiskey. But the woman? Nope. His brain served up a blank slate. "Who was she?" Dylan swallowed. "The first daughter of William Walters." "Cough! Cough!" Axel coughed violently, his face turning red and eyes wide with shock. He never thought that woman would end up in his bed.  --- Curiosity won, as always. Evelyn grabbed the remote and hit the power button. The screen lit up, and her jaw dropped. Her eyes went wide, as if the Grim Reaper himself had just stepped out of the TV to ask for her phone number. “What the…? Why does my personal source of misery pop up the second I turn this thing on?” Because there he was, Axel Knight, gliding out of his luxury car like some corporate deity on his way to a business banquet. Evelyn scrambled for the remote to turn it off, but of course, fate had other plans. Axel turned to the camera and gave a casual wave, acknowledging the paparazzi vultures lined up outside. She hated to admit it, but the man looked sinfully good in his signature black suit and high turtleneck, his sleek black hair framing a face that could stop traffic and quite possibly her breathing. Then, suddenly, her stomach clenched. Her hand instinctively rubbed her flat belly. “Little tenant, did you just say you recognize him?”

Clara Vance had it all. Millions of followers, a beauty empire built on glamour, and a life curated for the camera. But a lost bet with her mother sends her away from a marvelous weekend trip to Mykonos and into the dusty attic of her family’s decaying ancestral manor. The catch was her inheritance. Her task? A dreary clear-out. Her discovery? A centuries-old diary belonging to her great-grandmother, Eleanor Thorne. The ink tells a story of a forgotten history. Eleanor’s forbidden obsession with her guardian and step-uncle, Casimir Guggenheim, a ruthless railroad tycoon with a heart of stone. But when Clara touches the tear-stained pages, the scent of crushed gardenias doesn’t just fill the room, it drags her back to 1879. Trapped in Eleanor’s corseted body, Clara finds herself under the roof of the very man who haunted the diary. To the world, Casimir is a cold, untouchable magnate. To Clara, he’s a puzzle she’s determined to break. The problem? Clara isn’t the timid, fragile girl Casimir remembers. She’s a 21st-century It Girl with no filter, a strategic mind for business, a total lack of respect for Gilded Age propriety and a defiance waiting for trouble to happen. While the original Eleanor was a victim of her station, Clara is ready to burn the cage down. As Clara navigates a world where a single misstep means ruin, scheming relatives see her as a pawn, and a powerful suitor sees her as nothing but a business merger. She realizes the history books were wrong. Rewriting Eleanor’s tragic end is dangerous, especially when she starts falling for the man she was never supposed to have. History says they’re a tragedy. Clara says history is about to get a makeover.

His gaze pinned me against the wall, his breath hot against my skin. “Tell me, Little Dove… you feel something for me, don’t you? No more dodging. I want a clear answer.” “Why? B-but I'm your brother's wife.” I managed, my voice steady despite the thundering in my chest. “Fuck that. I want a straightforward answer, so my stance can be clear,” he murmured, leaning in, lips hovering over mine. “Either to steal you from my brother, or…” “Or get over me?” I whispered. He pulled back sharply, his dark eyes narrowing dangerously. “No. Either to steal you from my brother… or take him out of the picture. I will kill if I have to, just to have you all to myself." I stared at him in shock and disbelief. ********************* “I’m going to tell you what I have in mind,” he murmured. “First you’re going to strip down until you’re completely naked,” he whispered against my ear. “Then I’m going to tie you up so you’re completely powerless and subject to my every whim.” “Mmm, sounds good so far,” I murmured. “Then I’m going to insert a plug to prepare you for me. After that, I’m going to spank that sweet ass of yours until it’s rosy with my marks.” I shivered uncontrollably, my mind exploding with the images he evoked. I let out a small whimper as he sucked the lobe of my ear into his mouth. God, I could cum with just his words. I was already aching with need. My nipples tingled and hardened to painful points. My clit pulsed and twitched between my legs until I clamped my thighs together to alleviate the burn. “And then I’m going to f**k your mouth. But I won’t cum. Not yet. When I’m close, I’ll flog you again until your ass is burning and you’re on fire with the need for relief. And then I’m going to f**k that ass. I’m going to take you hard and rough, to the very limits of what you can withstand. I won’t be gentle. Not tonight. I’m going to take you as roughly as you can stand. And then I’m going to cum all over your ass. Are you ready to be completely and utterly dominated?"

In the heart of a fast-paced luxury fragrance company, Ariella Moon, a brilliant but underestimated junior marketer, lives two lives: by day, she’s invisible at work; by night, she secretly runs a small online scent brand inspired by heritage and femininity. Her quiet world flips upside down when she’s pressured into attending a blind business dinner on behalf of her best friend. The dinner turns out to be a high-stakes proposal meeting with Jin-woo Kang, the cold, perfection-driven CEO of a powerful conglomerate looking to acquire a creative fragrance house to soften his company’s rigid image. A misunderstanding leads Jin-woo to believe Ariella is a confident business heiress—and instead of correcting him, she plays along, hoping it will be a one-time encounter. It isn’t. Impressed by her bold ideas and instinctive understanding of scent branding, Jin-woo offers her a temporary contract: act as his consultant and public partner while he finalizes a controversial merger. What begins as a strategic business arrangement soon becomes complicated as long workdays, boardroom battles, and shared ambitions blur the lines between professionalism and genuine emotion. As Ariella rises in the corporate world, she must confront office rivals, hidden family secrets, and the risk of her true identity being exposed. Jin-woo, meanwhile, is forced to question his belief that business must come before love. When the truth finally surfaces, both must decide: protect the empire they’re building—or fight for the future they never planned but desperately want. A story of ambition, identity, and unexpected love, Heritage of Scents blends corporate intrigue with slow-burn romance, proving that sometimes the most powerful deals are the ones written by the heart.
