Shackled To The Enemy King

In her past life, he ruined her. In this one, he won’t let her go. In her past life, Princess Katerina was promised to Prince Maximilian, the man she loved… until he betrayed her and destroyed her name beyond repair. When duty demanded it, she married King Dorian to save her people. It was a marriage born of sacrifice, not desire. But Maximilian never let her go. Even after ascending the throne of a rival kingdom, he pursued her relentlessly... not as a lover, but as a hunter. An enemy king. A shadow that followed her across borders and battlefields. A war she could never escape. Because of him, she lost everything. Her name. Her achievements. And the most unforgivable loss of all... her children. She died without ever understanding why he destroyed her… or why he never stopped. Reincarnated into the modern world as Catherine Preston, she wants only one thing: a quiet life. She has wealth, a powerful family that adores her, and a brilliant mind meant for research, not war. This time, she believes merit will protect her. This time, she believes the world is fairer. She is wrong. Traitors circle her once more—stealing her work, erasing her name, cornering her with smiles and contracts. And just as she stands on the edge of ruin… he appears again. Not as her enemy. Not as a king. But as her savior. “Marry me,” Maximilian Whitmore says calmly. “I’ll give you everything you dream of.” Catherine refuses. She will not trust the man who destroyed her once already. But fate has other plans. A curse. A bond. A shackle she cannot break. The only way to ease the curse… is intimacy with the man she despised. Bound once more to the enemy king of her past life, Catherine must face a terrifying question: Does Maximilian truly not remember what he did… or is he hiding the truth behind those unreadable eyes? And when King Dorian returns in this life, offering her peace and safety… Two men. Two pasts. One woman who remembers everything. In a world where names mean power and love is a battlefield, was Maximilian her greatest enemy… or the truth she was never meant to uncover? A reincarnation romance of obsession, betrayal, fate-bound love, and painful second chances. #A heart-throbbing reincarnation romance filled with obsession, power, betrayal, and fate-bound love. #Enemies to lovers. Soul shackles. Overbearing kings. Painful second chances. #Slowburn romance. Update will be once a day and there will be bonus chapters if we reach milestones. Hope you'll join me in this journey.

Rescuing Hearts

"You show up for thirty days, do your time, and disappear. Just like everyone else." When her fiancé left her at the altar for her more "successful" best friend—publicly humiliating her in front of 200 guests and later draining their joint business account—Dr Grace Ashford lost more than love. She lost her thriving veterinary practice in Boston, her savings, her reputation, and her ability to trust anyone who wasn't covered in fur. Eighteen months later, she's barely keeping Haven's Gate Animal Sanctuary afloat in rural Vermont, caring for the town's unwanted animals with duct-tape solutions and ramen-noodle budgets. She's sworn off relationships, Wall Street types, and anyone who looks too polished to be genuine. Her new life motto: animals don't lie, people always do. Then Ethan Kane shows up for court-ordered community service. Dressed in designer clothes he clearly hasn't washed himself, sporting a black eye and an attitude that screams "rich kid slumming it," Ethan is everything Grace despises. A former Wall Street golden boy sentenced to 200 hours of service after punching his boss, in front of the entire trading floor, no less. He's arrogant, entitled, and clearly counting down the minutes until he can return to his privileged life. Except Ethan doesn't disappear after his first miserable day of mucking out kennels. He keeps showing up. Early. He bonds with Thor, the three-legged German Shepherd so traumatized he attacks anyone who comes near, except Ethan. He fixes the broken barn door Grace couldn't afford to repair. He researches canine PTSD at midnight and presents Grace with a training plan that actually works. And when an anonymous donor pays off the sanctuary's $47,000 debt—the exact amount Grace mentioned once in passing, she starts to wonder if the brooding ex-finance guy sleeping in his car because he's "between apartments" isn't quite the villain she assumed. But Ethan is hiding something darker than financial ruin. The punch that earned his community service? It was aimed at the man who stole Ethan's proprietary trading algorithm, destroyed his reputation, and drove his younger sister to a breakdown. Ethan lost everything defending her—his career, his fortune, his spotless record. Now the same ruthless corporation that destroyed him wants to build luxury condos on the land adjacent to Haven's Gate. They're buying up the town, piece by piece, and Grace's sanctuary is the last holdout. When they offer her $2 million to sell, enough to save every animal and build her dream facility elsewhere, Ethan realizes the choice he makes next could save Grace's sanctuary or destroy the fragile trust they've built.

She kindly removed her clothes to give to him to wear, leaving herself shivering in the cold. Sheng Zexi: "Not as good-looking as me, and even without clothes, doesn’t look better than me." Gu Jia Ning: "This person has such a sharp tongue, he’ll definitely never get a wife." He was severely injured and unconscious, unable to drink the herbal medicine. She kindly wanted to pry his mouth open to forcibly feed him. Sheng Zexi: "Keep a bit of distance from me; I’m afraid your stupidity will rub off on me. Obviously, a small bamboo chip would do." Gu Jia Ning: "This person’s tongue could cut paper, surely destined to die alone." Who would have thought that more than a year later, upon learning she fell ill after jumping into the river, the already-gone Sheng Zexi sneaked in through the window with supplies? "Gu Jia Ning, are you tired of living or is there not enough water in your brain? You actually jumped into the river for a pretty boy!" While scolding her, he fed her painkillers and sweet wine boiled eggs that dispel cold and replenish blood. "If you still foolishly yearn for that pretty boy..." Gu Jia Ning: "Then I’ll marry you." Sheng Zexi was stunned on the spot, then went ahead laughingly and married Gu Jia Ning swiftly, even bringing her to join the army! The military camp wives all said: Sheng Zexi’s wife is a little rascal, delicate and vain, unwilling to do heavy work, often complaining about fatigue. One day, Sheng Zexi would surely abandon her.

And Sheng Zexi, always rebellious and a thorn in the side, turned into a good father and husband washing sheets by day and diapers by night.
