Amara Castillo never thought her first big break as a wedding coordinator would turn into a nightmare. Her best friend promised the job was for her cousin’s wedding, a glamorous event that could launch Amara into the top tier of her career. But it was a lie. The groom was not her cousin. He was her brother, Trey Alvarez. Amara grew up inside the Alvarez mansion as the maid’s daughter, living in the servants’ wing while luxury surrounded her. Trey was the heir, ten years older, raised to inherit power and wealth. Amara learned early how to stay quiet and unseen. For years, she loved him in secret. He was handsome, controlled, and carried the confidence of someone born for greatness. By the age of twenty-five, Trey had become the CEO of his father’s empire, shaped by pressure and expectations. On Amara’s fifteenth birthday, she finally confessed her feelings in the rose garden. For a brief moment, she thought she saw something forbidden in his eyes. Then his face hardened. “You’re just a child. The maid’s daughter. Stop believing in fairy tales.” He walked away and left her alone with her heartbreak. That night, the hopeful girl she once was disappeared. Ten years later, Amara is no longer invisible. She is now one of the city’s most in-demand wedding coordinators. This job should have changed her life for the better. Instead, it brings her face to face with the man who broke her heart. When they meet again, Trey is cold and dismissive. “So they trusted you with my wedding?” he says. “You’re not who I expected. I don’t want someone young and inexperienced handling it.” Years ago, those words would have crushed her. Now, she stands her ground. “You’re judging my age, not my ability,” she says. “That’s not confidence. That’s prejudice.” Trey is stunned. The quiet girl he once dismissed is gone. In her place is a confident woman who commands attention and does not back down. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot stop watching her. She was always supposed to be off-limits. Before, it was easy to tell himself she was too young and from a different world. Now, those excuses no longer work. Amara must plan every detail of Trey Alvarez’s wedding to another woman, surrounded by wealth, memories, and emotions she cannot escape. The longer she stays, the heavier the tension becomes. Glances linger. Silence speaks louder than words. Until one unexpected moment changes everything. Now, Amara’s career, her pride, and her heart are all at risk. Because planning someone else’s wedding is impossible when your own feelings refuse to stay buried.

This novel is a heartfelt exploration of teenage love, friendship, and betrayal, rooted in memories of childhood innocence and the painful beauty of growing up. The story begins with simple days—carefree laughter, shared secrets, friendships formed without conditions, and emotions felt for the first time. Childhood is painted in warm memories, where promises are made easily and trust feels unbreakable. But as the characters step into their teenage years, innocence slowly fades, replaced by confusion, desire, and emotional complexity. At its core, the novel follows a group of teenagers whose lives are tightly bound by friendship and unspoken love. As time moves forward, misunderstandings, ego, jealousy, and silence begin to creep in. Bonds that once felt permanent start to weaken. Love becomes complicated. Friendships are tested. Truths are hidden, and betrayal leaves scars deeper than expected. The story captures the reality of teenage life—first love that feels eternal, friendships that feel like home, and the quiet heartbreak of realizing that not everyone grows in the same direction. With each passing year, emotional distances grow, and the closeness they once shared slowly slips through their fingers. Inspired by the author’s real-life experiences, this novel reflects the bittersweet truth that growing up often means losing a part of our innocence. Yet within the pain lies growth, understanding, and memories that never truly fade. This is not just a story of love lost or friendship broken—it is a mirror to the lives we once lived and the people we once were.

#WSA2025 Word went around that no one that had ever knocked on the esteemed Eleazar family’s doors seeking shelter were turned away.

A land where noble blood like hers was a highly coveted delicacy. As such, she wasn’t turned away, but since the Eleazars ran no charity, Arabella was compelled to become the sole blood provider to the heir of the family in exchange for safety. Though never, in a million years, did she imagine that what had started as a simple trade off, could morph into a swirl of tangled passion when the cold and stoic vampire she served showed interest in the young woman beyond the crimson nectar coursing her veins. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note that the most brutal of abuse (Which includes explicit sexual abuse) takes place near the climax of the story. All I will say is that it won't be enacted by the ML.

It's my story how I met her and how I became her very first boyfriend (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)(⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

Five years ago, she was betrayed in a single night. Drugged, drunk, and set up by the very people she trusted—her stepsister and her best friend—she woke up in the arms of a powerful Alpha she didn’t even know. By morning, the lie had already been told. Branded a disgrace and accused of selling herself for money, she was cast out by her own father without a chance to defend herself… carrying a secret no one knew. His child. Now, five years later, she returns to the kingdom she was exiled from—no longer broken, no longer powerless. She has built a name for herself, a life for her son, and walls around her heart. The past is buried… or so she believes. Because the Alpha King remembers the night. He doesn’t remember her face. But he remembers her scent. Haunting. Familiar. Impossible to forget. As his grandmother pressures him into marriage, he becomes obsessed with finding the mysterious woman from that night—unaware that the woman chosen to stand beside him is the very one he has been searching for… and that the child she hides is his heir. But someone else is lying. Her stepsister has stepped forward, claiming to be the woman from that night—and she has no intention of letting the truth come out. In a kingdom where power decides truth, where scent never lies, and where an heir can change everything, what happens when the Alpha King finally discovers who the woman before him truly is? And what will he do when he learns that his greatest mistake… became his greatest legacy?

Lennox cornered her in the hallway, his amber eyes troubled. “You didn’t deserve that.” “Didn’t I?” Olivia challenged. “Wasn’t it you who told the entire pack that the daughter of a traitor should be treated as less than human?” “I was wrong,” he admitted. “We all were.” “Three years, Lennox. Three years of serving as your Omega, of being spat on, of watching you three worship the ground Anita walks on while I’m nothing but a shameful secret.” From the shadows, Levi’s voice emerged. “The Moon Goddess bound us for a reason.” Olivia’s bitter laugh echoed through the corridor. “And you’ve fought that reason every step of the way.” “We didn’t know,” Louis appeared beside his brothers, forming the triangle that had always made Olivia feel trapped. “About your father, about the conspiracy—” “So that’s what it takes?” she asked, voice trembling. “My father’s name being cleared for you to acknowledge me as your Luna? As your mate?” “No,” Lennox reached for her. “It’s seeing your strength, your resilience despite everything we put you through.” “We were cruel,” Levi admitted. “We were wrong,” Louis echoed. Olivia looked at each of them, these three powerful Alphas now regarding her with something approaching reverence. Olivia’s smile held no warmth. “Now I realize some wounds cut too deep to heal. You can’t break someone for years and expect them to be whole for you when it’s convenient.”

Chloe Hart has always lived a quiet life — working hard, staying out of trouble, and avoiding the chaos that seems to follow other people. She believes in simple things: honesty, stability, and safety. But when she moves to Paris for a new job, her life becomes anything but ordinary. One night, while attending a high-end event, Chloe meets Lucas Vale, a mysterious billionaire known for his power, influence, and dangerous reputation. He is handsome, charming, and cold — a man who keeps everyone at a distance. When Lucas approaches Chloe, she feels an instant connection… and an undeniable fear. He doesn’t look like a man who falls in love. He looks like a man who controls everything. Lucas offers Chloe a deal she can’t refuse: work for him, and he will protect her from the threats that have been stalking her. Chloe is unsure if she can trust him, but she has no choice — danger is already closing in. As Chloe enters Lucas’s world, she discovers a hidden side of Paris — a world of luxury, power, and dark secrets. Lucas’s mansion, his business empire, and his mysterious allies are all part of a life Chloe never imagined. But there is something else hiding beneath Lucas’s cold exterior — a past filled with betrayal, violence, and a promise he made years ago that still haunts him. And the closer Chloe gets to Lucas, the more she realizes that the danger she’s running from is not just outside. It’s inside the man she’s falling for. Someone is watching Chloe. Someone wants her silenced. And Lucas will stop at nothing to protect her — even if it means losing everything he has built. As Chloe’s heart becomes entangled with Lucas’s dark world, she must choose between safety and love. Because in a world where secrets are weapons and promises are deadly, the only thing more dangerous than falling in love… is trusting the person who holds your life in their hands.

"Choi Minjae!" Mr. Choi's furious voice thundered through the living room as he glared at his youngest daughter. Minjae stood opposite him, arms folded tightly against her chest, her own glare unwavering. "What?" she scoffed mockingly. "Did I say something wrong? Do you hate me even more now that I know the secret you all swore your lives to keep?" She dropped the thin file she was holding onto the table. "I honestly thought it was a lie at first," she continued, her eyes darting from face to face. "I thought... even if my family hated me, they wouldn't go that far. But it seems I underestimated just how deep that hatred runs." "Minjae-ah…" her mother called tiredly, her voice trembling. "Please… just stop." Tears filled Mrs. Kim's eyes. She was exhausted, worn down by the endless arguments. But Minjae had no intention of stopping. "Grandfather willed the organization to me!," Minjae snapped. "Out of everyone around him, he chose me. Not even his own son." A small, disbelieving smirk curved her lips. "And what did Father do?" she continued coldly. "He hid it from me… then handed it over to my sister. So now I'm the bad guy for asking back what already belongs to me?" "Enough!" Min-Sol finally stepped in. "You know now! We admit it, the organization was willed to you. But was it really then necessary to shut down the construction project that had been going on for over a month now? Do you have any idea how long it took me to secure that deal?!" Her voice cracked, not from rage, but disappointment. She knew her sister would go to extreme lengths to prove a point, but this… this was too much. "I don't care how long it took," Minjae replied coolly. "I guess i just needed to flex my authority a little. Watching everyone follow my orders, even when you're the official chair woman, made me realize something." She laughed bitterly. "That i was the only fool in the dark. Everyone else knew. Everyone, except me. Cast aside by my own family." She turned fully toward Min-Sol. "Maybe I wouldn't have been so surprised if this was Father's doing alone," Minjae said quietly. "But you?" She tilted her head slightly. "Don't you think you're being a little too greedy?" "What…?" Min-Sol breathed. "Of course Father would hand all his assets to you, his one and only favorite daughter," Minjae continued calmly. "But even the single company Grandpa left me… you wanted that too?" Min sol eyes hardened. "Do you realize that company was never meant for our family alone? That in the wrong hands, everything we have could be stripped away." "So I'm the 'wrong hand,' and you're the 'right' one?" Minjae let out a soft, humorless laugh. "I'm supposed to be grateful that you've been warming my seat and running my company on my behalf?" She clapped slowly, mock applause filling the room. "Fine. I'll admit it, you've done a great job, Truly. Now step down. I'll take over from here." "Never!" Mr. Choi roared. "That will never happen! The day you take that company is the day I die!" Minjae took a step forward, her smile widening. "Good," she said calmly. "Then I suggest you hurry. I'm already running out of patience." She added and next thing a slap landed across her cheek. The sound echoed through the mansion, Mrs. Kim's trembling hand hung in the air as silence swallowed the room. A faint gasp could be heard. Min-Sol, who hadn't been slapped, looked more shocked than Minjae herself. She had expected retaliation… but not from her mother. The calmest person in the family. "How dare you say such cruel thing!" Mrs. Kim shouted, pointing angrily at her daughter. Minjae slowly turned her head, touching her cheek. "I'm sorry, Mom," she said with a twisted smile. "Did I say it wrong?" She asked as silence failed the air, Suddenly, she grabbed a flower vase from the table and hurled violently it to the floor as it Crash loudly, the porcelain shattered violently as everyone jolted backward. "Let me rephrase then" Minjae gritted. "I hope
