In the beautiful city of Eldrida, Angelina "Lina" Johnson finds her passion as a gifted perfumery scout and marketer for the prestigious Aurum Scents. Under the mentorship of its powerful yet principled CEO, Carter Hayes, she believes she has found her perfect place. But Lina's life turns upside down when she draws the gaze of a far more dangerous titan. Daniel Viggo, the ruthless CEO of Vega Corporation and shadow chairman of the monolithic Blackwood Enterprises, is a man forged in trauma. Three years after his mother was murdered by a woman with an angelic face, he has hardened into a predator who despises all who remind him of her. In Lina, he sees the living, breathing replica of his ghost. Consumed by obsession, he is determined to make her suffer through professional sabotage, psychological warfare, and personal violation—punishing her simply for existing. Carter Hayes, Lina's boss and protector, quickly realizes his brightest talent has been targeted by a man whose power dwarfs his own. Though CEO of Aurum, Carter is outmatched by Viggo's vast empire. He vows to shield Lina, but his ability to help has limits, and every move to protect her risks his own company. Caught in this high-stakes crossfire, Lina's turmoil deepens with the return of Lucas, a steadfast love from her high school past. He offers a sanctuary of genuine affection and a chance at a normal life—a stark contrast to the gilded cage of fear she now inhabits. Now, Lina is trapped in the middle: tormented by an untouchable tyrant who wants to break her, protected by a guardian who might not be strong enough to save her, and tempted by a love that promises an escape she may never reach. To survive, she must uncover the truth behind Daniel's vendetta and find a strength as potent as the rarest perfume—before her career, spirit, and heart are shattered by the man who sees her not as a person, but as a ghost to be destroyed. Heart Secret is a tale of obsession, resilience, and corporate intrigue, where the most precious secrets are those buried within the human heart.

He thinks his scholarship and education are his only way to a future better than his present.

On campus and to everyone, Adrian is the perfect, well-behaved, brilliant heir to a top conglomerate family. While in private, he is a possessive, manipulative jerk who does a lot of unimaginable things. When Ryan proposes tutoring to him, Adrian offers that he pay with his body instead.

But even when Adrian rejects his confession and treats him like a toy way worse than before, Ryan doesn't leave. He wants the tutoring, the intimacy, the sex, his persistent feelings for Adrian, and the tiny hope that Adrian's heart may steer towards him. It gets even messier when Adrian’s friend Liam enters the picture. Liam is calm, kind, and actually cares about Ryan, but he holds back his feelings to keep the peace. Then there is also Chase, a rich troublemaker who openly flirts with Ryan. Trapped in a dirty cycle of sex, love, and heartbreak, everything Ryan had and held dear to him came tumbling gradually.

Somewhere between death and memory, she was remade. Pulled from the ashes of a failed expedition, a nameless girl wakes in a place called Solmere Bastion — an alchemical refuge built for the broken and forgotten. With no past but the relic she clutches, she is reborn as Ravine — a name given, not remembered. But the Dead Zone does not let go so easily. Whispers linger. Dreams unravel. The relic she carries is no ordinary pendant — it's a Matron’s Bloom; a sacred object passed only to those meant to carry on a bloodline... or a burden. As Ravine walks the rain-soaked halls of the Bastion, haunted by names that might have once been hers, she must uncover not just who she was — but who she is becoming. Because in this world, alchemy gives nothing for free. To live again is to owe something. And the Gate always comes to collect. Aporia is a slow-burn fantasy of identity, grief, and quiet magic — perfect for fans of lyrical prose, introspective journeys, and stories that linger long after the last page.
