**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth, beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

Hermione Granger always thought she was incredibly hardworking in her studies, even to the point of being obsessed, until she met Amanda… A study fanatic, a meticulous machine, a tireless monster—that's how students describe Amanda.

Until they peeled away Amanda's outer layer and saw her scarred core. “You can’t survive on just high scores anymore, so stop and take a break, okay?” — Hermione Granger "Life isn't just about moving forward; pause for a moment and appreciate its beauty." — Albus Dumbledore

Ruaan Calder is many things. Wealthy. Charming. Completely guilty. He made one bad decision — okay, several — and now he's trading his designer suits for prison grey. Fine. He can handle that. He's handled worse. What he didn't account for was 'Officer Harolin Crowe.' Cold. Ruthless. Unfairly attractive for someone whose entire personality is making Ruaan's life a living hell. The man has it out for him specifically — blocking every move he makes, sabotaging every attempt to climb the prison hierarchy, and showing up exactly when Ruaan is 'thisclose' to winning. It's personal. Ruaan just doesn't know why yet. Every Thursday, the prison runs its games. Win and you move up. Lose and you wish you hadn't. Ruaan is determined to reach the top — and Crowe is determined to keep him at the bottom, under his boot, where he belongs. The problem? Being under Harolin Crowe isn't nearly as unpleasant as it should be. And the man who swore to make him suffer keeps finding very creative ways to do exactly that. Ruaan Calder deserves everything coming to him. 'He just didn't expect to enjoy some of it.' --- WARNING: Dark themes, prison violence, explicit content, morally grey characters, and a villain who may or may not deserve what he gets. Enjoy!

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.
