CHASING YESTERDAY'S WIFE

For five years, Emma Chen has been the perfect wife to a man who looks through her like glass. She married Adrian Hartwell after one reckless night resulted in a pregnancy scare that turned out to be a false alarm. But by then, the vows were said, the papers signed, and Emma was trapped in a beautiful prison called marriage—loving a man whose heart belonged to someone else. Her sister. The golden child. The woman Adrian couldn't have because she left for Paris to chase her dreams, leaving him broken and Emma to pick up the pieces. Emma learned to live with the crumbs: the separate bedrooms, the mechanical "good mornings," the way Adrian's eyes would glaze over when she spoke, as if waiting for the conversation to end. She tells herself it's enough. That maybe, someday, he'll see her. Then Vivian Chen returns from Paris, radiant and newly divorced, and Adrian's cold facade cracks for the first time in five years—with warmth that was never meant for Emma. That night, Emma makes the hardest decision of her life. She packs five years of memories into three suitcases, calls the best divorce attorney in the city, and leaves the divorce papers on Adrian's office desk with one sentence: "I'm setting you free." She expects relief. Maybe anger. What she doesn't expect is Adrian Hartwell—the man who barely acknowledged her existence—to show up at her new apartment at midnight, papers torn in half, eyes wild with something that looks terrifyingly like panic. "You don't get to leave," he says, and Emma realizes with dawning horror that the game has changed. Because Adrian Hartwell has finally woken up. And he's not letting her go without a fight—even if he has to tear down every wall she's built to protect her shattered heart.

Married to the Cold CEO After My Ex Betrayed Me

Amelia Hart thought her life was perfect—until the night before her wedding, when she caught her fiancé kissing her sister. Heartbroken, humiliated, and ready to run, she crosses paths with the last man she ever expected to notice her: Leon Hale — the cold, ruthless, untouchable CEO of Hale Group… and her powerful, unreadable boss. Instead of offering pity, he offers a contract. A marriage contract. One year. No emotions. No real strings. A mutually beneficial arrangement that gives Amelia protection and gives Leon what he needs for a massive family-trust inheritance battle. But the moment Amelia becomes Mrs. Hale, the entire world changes. Her ex becomes obsessed. Her sister becomes furious. The elite families whisper about the secretary who somehow landed the city’s most desired bachelor. And Leon? The man with ice in his veins begins to show cracks—dangerous cracks. Possessive touches. Jealous stares. Unexpected tenderness. Promises he should never make. Just when Amelia starts to believe their marriage might be more than a contract, a woman from Leon’s past walks into their home and declares one thing that shatters everything: “I’m Leon’s real fiancée.” Now Amelia must decide: Run from the man whose world could destroy her… or fight for a marriage she never intended to want—but can no longer imagine losing. A story of betrayal, revenge, accidental love, and a cold CEO who learns there is only one person he will ever break his rules for: his wife.

Triplet Alpha's Omega Mate

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.”
