The bond was tied, witnessed, and ordained. For a young woman whose hand was placed in another’s, not out of longing, but for protection and responsibility. Though their marriage was abrupt, each passing day carved a path toward emotions they had never known before. Not desire, but faith.

Sydney was nineteen when she fell for the man who saved her life. She worked up every ounce of courage she had: "Can I have your number? I'd like to thank you properly." He looked her dead in the eye and smiled. "Do you like me?" She ran. When they met again, her elders introduced him, saying, “You can call him ‘Uncle’.” She tried to bury her feelings. She really did. Then he showed up in a black suit, loosening his tie, gold-rimmed glasses catching the light, and asked in that low, hoarse voice: "Would you like to come to my place?" Later on, Sydney became famous because her reputation was tarnished by accusations of robbing another’s fortune, bullying, and lawlessness. Yet, she had a clean and innocent face, making her look harmless, when she was actually a typical evil financial magnate capable of winning arguments and clobbering phonies. Her family clarified, “Our child is most obedient and sensible.” The public apologized, “… Forgive us for being blind!” When her team suggests dropping a bombshell to kill the bad press, a single trending headline rewrites everything: #Sydney and Sebastian Are Already Married#

Love like death it control itself but what happens when it controls everything?

Layna simply chose not to care. Whether about her sexuality, love life or anything that needed some kind of emotional affection from her. Comfortable in the status quo and the life she carried, Layna never imagined that one day in the splurge of the moment a fake identity would be born only to relieve her wallet from spending on alcohol. She, now dressed as a man would land in the nightlife of a man whose preferences are as well hidden as his true identity. When Layna’s alter ego meets Xavier’s tastes, a blurred relationship begins unaware of the secrets both keep. What began as a great idea between friends would slowly bring troubles to her “normal” life. What wasn’t meant to be turns into a wild ride full of intoxicating surprises. Now, trapped in the lies and doubts of who they truly are, Layna and Xavier must confront what they used to dismiss. An identity, a gender, a desire, a vulnerability… love in its full course. Will they drink the full glass or will they shatter it as they collide? They surely will embrace the prism of their lives. #CEO #Romance #Comedy #R18 #Smut #Slowburn #LGBT+ ————————————- Read my other books! - You Think I Won’t Talk? - Barbaric Spouse, Descry the Night’s Lure This is an original book.

“Darling, you are the moon that gave light in my darkest times.” She gave up finding a man who could make her heart skip a beat and fall in love; Hailey Hillson accepted her best friend’s marriage proposal but then changed her mind after hearing another woman say she couldn’t please a man in bed. When it was just a week away from their wedding day, Bryan got back together with his ex-girlfriend Eva Lan. Hailey broke up with Bryan and called off their wedding. But then, she discovered an interesting fact about Eva Lan—she is married. ‘Did her husband know she was cheating on him?’ * After the heartbreak, Hailey focused on completing her LIFE PROJECT. To achieve it, she went overseas, where she came across Vincent Lopez Shen, the CEO of Shen Group Construction Firm, who later offered her a contract to pretend as his mistress to get his wife's attention. As she also had an ulterior motive, she signed the contract without thinking twice. However... What will happen after she lives with Vincent Shen under one roof when he is Eva’s husband—the woman who destroyed her relationship with Bryan? Will Vincent find out her secret regarding her true identity? Would she find out the secret Vincent keeps that is related to her? EXCERPT: “Miss Eva Lan, why won’t you sign the divorce papers if you are happy with someone’s fiancé’s bed?” Glancing at her with disbelief, Bryan turned his head to the woman inside his arm; he asked, “What the hell is this, Eva?” Hailey cut in. “Oh, you didn’t know Miss Lan is a married woman, my dear ex-fiance?” Her words are a bomb to Bryan. “You shut up! Don’t believe her, Bryan! She is just jealous of me because you love me over her!” Hailey scoffed, a playful smile playing on her lips; before she could spout another word, the woman in front of her paled like a ghost. “Vincent, what are you doing here?” Horror, panic, and shock linger on her face to see her husband appear out of nowhere and his arms wrapped around the girl’s waist. Vince shoots a cold glare at his wife, and he feels no familiarity between them. He withdrew his gaze from the two people before them. He turned his head to the woman standing next to him, he looked at her with tenderness in his eyes, and with a loving tone, he asked her, “Darling, who upsets you? Tell me, and I will remove them from your sight in an instant.” Hailey lifted her chin. As her eyes flickered, her cheeks were flushing scarlet red. Coquettishly, she whispered in Vincent's ear, “Darling, Miss Lan bullied me. She said I couldn’t satisfy a man in bed. She told me I didn’t know how to… do that….” Vincent contorted the corners of his mouth and beamed. “That’s interesting.” “What do you mean by that?” she pouted. “What I am trying to say is… You are a fast learner, and all you need is the right partner.” * * * ~Be ready for many twists ~Novel was ENDING at Chapter 400.

Tired of toxic ones and seeking a dotting male lead? Want to read about a budding romance between two mortal enemies? Looking for a strong female instead of a whiny one? Well, you are in right place, let's get started. ~Excerpt~ I watched as they kissed passionately, as he undressed her body, fondling her, and making her moan. I still watched as their bodies collided, melting together, moulding into each other, moving in rhythms. But why was he watching me? Not for a second, his eyes flickered or left mine. Not even when he bit into her neck and sucked her blood. He still watched me and I did him, unwavering and unmoving as if we had been frozen in time. Treia left as he asked her to, giving me another unpleasant look as she walked past me. But, I was too engrossed in watching him as he had instructed me, I wouldn't look away because that's what he had asked me to do. When did I become so benign? Well, it was all for my mission, that's what I kept telling myself. Was that true though? Did I not feel even a single bit of pull toward this gorgeous entity in front of me? "Did you enjoy the show?" He finally asked sitting up in his bed. ~Synopsis~ Aselia was an elf whose world was ridden with many problems and strewn with species of all kinds but none was more colossal than vermins called 'Vampires' who sought blood not only for survival but also for pleasure especially from "The Elven Race."

Aselia hated Vampires with a passion. Then she met a vampire whose existence was unknown to most people. Xiran smiled at her as no vampire had ever done before. She didn't scream rainbows and he was no angel either. She was not a damsel in distress and yet he wanted to be her saviour. The man's appearance was not of a vampire and yet he drank blood. What secrets did he hold? And who exactly was he? How will he react when he will discover Aselia's deepest darkest secrets? Because she had many too.

Everyone is a poet when the first drop of rain hits the pavement. Instagram stories go up instantly — slow-motion raindrops racing down a windowpane, a steaming cup of masala chai, captions like “Pluviophile" But here’s the truth — people only love the rain until it touches them. Once the aesthetic is captured, the romance fades. No one talks about the clogged drains, the ruined shoes, or the chaos left behind. They love the idea of rain… not its reality. And maybe, people are the same. Mira has lived her whole life being admired from a distance — “You look Chinese,” “So exotic,” “North-Eastern beauty.” But the moment she steps outside, admiration turns into stares, whispers, and words that make her feel like a stranger in her own country. Just like the rain, society loves her as an idea — but not her existence. Tired of never belonging, Mira only wants one thing — freedom. To live like the rain… wild, fearless, and uncontained. Ironically, fate takes her to the one place she never wanted to go — China. A place where she meets Chen Yuze — a quiet, distant boy who feels like the calm before a storm… and the kind of rain she never understood. Between late nights, soft music, and a small bakery that slowly becomes their world, something begins to change. But not all storms end in rainbows. Sometimes, they leave people broken… And sometimes— they bring them back.
