Love After Midnight When the Night Shift Nurse Discovered Her Secret A

"Dr. Bennett, do you really think I have no idea who you are? I've been aware from the first letter. In a single night, Nora Chen's life fell apart. She lost everything, including her trust fund, her apartment, her job at her family's pharmaceutical firm, and her sense of dignity, after being publicly humiliated at her own engagement party when her fiancé and stepsister revealed their affair and her father rejected her for "embarrassing the family." She now works the harsh night shift as a nurse at St. Catherine's Hospital, trying to subsist on shame and instant ramen while hiding from her past life. The letters then begin to show up on her desk. In the silent hours between two and four AM, when the hospital is asleep and only the desperate are awake, lovely handwritten notes were left. They are neither demanding nor eerie. They are poems. They are benevolent. They pick up on details about her that no one else notices, such as the fact that she gives coffee to the security guard, hums while monitoring IVs, and is stronger than she realizes. These letters, the only thing pure in her ruined existence, are her hidden joy for three months. Until the night she learns that Dr. Elias Bennett, the brilliant but aloof cardiac surgeon whom every nurse talks about, is her anonymous admirer. The untouchable man with the scarred hands. The man whose family business is the main adversary of her family. Before everything collapsed, her father sent her undercover to spy on and sabotage the man. However, Elias had always known who she was. He is aware of her fall from grace, her hidden suffering, and her family's business espionage. He has been testing the damaged socialite by writing those letters to see if she would reveal her actual nature or develop into a real person. He is now making her an offer: if she poses as his fiancée to prevent his domineering mother from pressuring her into an arranged marriage, he will provide her with the means to get revenge on everyone who has deceived her. It's a straightforward commercial deal. No genuine emotions, only public appearances for six months. However, there is nothing straightforward about Elias Bennett. A man who lost everything in a tragedy that left him mentally and physically damaged lies beneath his cold appearance. A man who is unable to sleep and does the night shift. Because she is the first person in years to treat him like a human being rather than a monster or a meal ticket, a man writes love letters to a lady who is supposed to be his enemy. Nora must decide whether to use Elias to restore her former life of wealth and prestige or to select the man who sees her true self and run the risk of losing everything again as business conflict between their families intensifies and past betrayals resurface with fatal implications. She learned how to survive in the dark working the night shift. However, Elias will show her that some forms of love only blossom after midnight, when the masks fall off and the truth is all that's left.

Contract Marriage; Escaping My Ex.

(A spin-off of “Submitting to My Ex-Uncle”. However, can be read alone) ……… He ruined her once. Now, she belongs to another man. Three years after Elias shattered her heart and disappeared, Amara has rebuilt her life. Or at least, pretended to. Her books are bestsellers now, her name was highly adored, and her smile well practiced. However, when the ghosts of her past resurface, she does the unthinkable. She immediately marries Travis Alden. Cold. Brilliant. Dangerous. A man who doesn’t believe in love but needs a wife for reasons of his own. It was supposed to be a business arrangement. No touch. No feelings. And no complications. Until Elias returns. Her first love, and her greatest sin. A fire she thought she buried comes roaring back to life. Travis tempts her with safety and devotion. Slowly, he even began to show her what love really felt like. Meanwhile, Elias drags her back into the darkness she once called home. He still looks at her like she’s the only prayer he ever learned to say. And when he whispers mine against her skin, the line between past and present blurs dangerously. In a world where desire is a weapon and love is the deadliest addiction, Amara must decide which man she’s willing to burn for. The husband who would kill to keep her, or the ex who already destroyed her once? ………. “I love my marriage, Elias.” She said it too quickly. The words escaped her lips like a reflex, and not a truth. Elias’s eyes darkened. He stepped closer, slow and deliberate, until the air between them felt charged enough to burn them. “Do you?” he asked, voice low. Too low. It trembled with everything between pain and hunger. “Then why do your pupils dilate when I walk in, Amara?” She swallowed hard, her spine pressing lightly against the wall behind her. He was close enough for her to feel the whisper of his breath near her temple “You don’t get to do this anymore.” She gasped at him. He smiled. “Do what? Remind you what it felt like to actually want someone?” Her pulse raced; she hated that he could still read it, and still hear it. “Stop it.” Elias reached up, brushing a loose strand of her hair back behind her ear. His fingertips grazed her skin, light as a ghost, and yet she felt it everywhere. “You can tell him you love him all you want,” he murmured, his lips just an inch from her ear, “but just don’t look at him like this when you do.” She exhaled sharply, trying to turn away, but he caught her wrist gently, not to restrain her, just to remind her. “Because that look…” he whispered, his voice breaking slightly, “this look used to be mine.”

When Gardens Speak, Hearts Awaken : The Girl Who Could Hear Flowers

"For the past three years, you have been showering me with tears. Did you really think I wouldn't notice? Elara Moss led the most unremarkable existence for eighteen years: she was invisible at school, ignored by her affluent adoptive family, and found comfort only in the plants she grows on the ledge of her little apartment and the stray cat she feeds. She didn't think she was unique. She thought she was by herself. Then, in one cruel night, her entire world collapses. At their engagement party, her fiancé—the golden boy she has adored since childhood—publicly humiliates her by disclosing that he has been having an affair with her adopted sister for the past two years. Her adoptive parents, who "saved" her from the orphanage, declare that she was merely retained as a backup organ donor for their biological daughter. The sister she had faith in? She planned everything, even giving Elara drugs so she could take compromising pictures that would ruin her reputation. Elara collapses outside her locked apartment in the rain after losing everything, including her house, savings, and dignity. Something unthinkable occurs when she eventually drags herself inside. The unkempt alley cat she has been feeding for years changes into a stunningly attractive man with silver eyes and an air of ancient might. The potted plants on her windowsill start to speak like wind chimes, whispering secrets. She is treated like queen by the cherry blossom tree outside her window, which bows its branches to her. "Finally," the cat-man replies, grinning fiercely and tenderly. "You're awake." His name is Kieran, and he is a Guardian, an eternal guardian tasked with keeping an eye on the final descendant of the Garden-Speakers—humans born with the capacity to converse with all living things. He had been waiting for eighteen years, living as a cat to be near her, watching her mature, and falling madly in love with the girl who was kind to a "stray" despite her lack of anything. However, something risky has been set off by Elara's awakening. Her power will be harvested at all costs by the same people that destroyed the Garden-Speakers centuries ago. Her adoption was a trap, not an accident. Her treachery was a ritual intended to crush her spirit and facilitate her arrest; it was not personal. Elara learns that she is neither weak, unworthy, or ordinary as Kieran shows her how to use her talents. Being able to control nature itself, she is the first Garden-Speaker to be born in three hundred years. The plants she believed she was caring for? In reality, they were shielding her from those who pursue her kind by concealing her power signature. Elara now has to decide whether to accept her power, stand with Kieran and the secret supernatural community, and retaliate against those who deceived her, or go away and hide and become invisible again. The timid girl who expressed regret for being alive has vanished. Something strong and lovely emerges in her place—a lady who will make her adversaries regret ever bringing her to tears. You should never undervalue a female who has the ability to turn roses into thorns, after all.

And what happens when a secret from that fateful night emerges—one that changes everything they thought they knew?

Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by His Wolf

"You're not my partner. The Moon Goddess made the error of not paying attention to you. You are rejected by me, Daemon Silvercrest, the Silvercrest Pack's next Alpha. For eighteen years, Kira Ashwood has been invisible. She is the daughter her parents wish had never been born, the girl without a wolf, and the sister who only lives to help the golden child shine brighter. Being wolfless reduces you to nothing in a world where your wolf decides your value. Her strategy was straightforward: she would live until she turned eighteen, at which point she would vanish into the human world and no one would be aware that she was meant to be something more. However, fate has a nasty sense of humor. Her wolf eventually awakens on the night of her birthday; it's late, but it's incredibly strong. And her partner? He is her older sister Stella's fiancée, Daemon Silvercrest, the pack's future Alpha, and the boy who turned her early years into a living hell. The same man who told her she would be better off dead, laughed when people branded her a "defect," and pushed her into mud puddles. Kira does the only sensible thing as the mate bond tightens like a cord around their souls: she flees. Daemon, though, is unable to let her go. He can sense her suffering, dread, and loathing of him, and this relationship is driving him crazy. The one person he never considered important brings the harsh, haughty Alpha heir to his knees for the first time in his life. She has no desire to interact with him. To keep her, he would set the entire pack on fire. She is committed to rejecting the relationship and disappearing. He is committed to proving that he is deserving of a second shot. Kira must choose between letting the mate bond bind her to her darkest nightmare and developing the strength to defy fate itself as pack politics erupt, her latent power becomes apparent, and adversaries close in from all directions. The "worthless" girl they all made fun of is going to demonstrate to them what happens when you push the Moon Goddess's chosen too far.

The Silver Wolf :Shards Of The Moon

Ember Thorne grew up knowing the bitter truth: weakness is a death sentence. ​On her sixteenth birthday, when the primal surge of the Shift should have remade her, she was left agonizingly human. Her failure transformed her from the beloved Beta-elect’s daughter into a pariah—a fragile, scentless Omega in the unforgiving Shadow Creek pack. For two years, she has endured the endless grind of servitude and the crushing cruelty of her Alpha, surviving only by the protective shadows cast by her twin, Elias. ​She has accepted her fate: no wolf, no mate, no escape. ​But when Alpha Kael Blackwood, the ruthless leader of the legendary Silver Moon pack, arrives for a surprise alliance meeting, he doesn't see the broken servant the pack sees. He sees her. ​He hauled me against his armored chest, the sheer force of his presence sucking the air from the room. His eyes, the color of storm clouds, bored into mine. ​“You think you can reject me?” His voice was a lethal rumble, closer than a whisper, yet loud enough to shake the walls. “You are a scentless, wolf-less weakling. Yet, you carry my soul.” ​I tried to swallow, but my throat was dust. “I am nothing. You are the Silver Moon Alpha. Reject me and spare us both the ridicule.” ​A dark smile, devoid of kindness, stretched across his face. He leaned down, his lips brushing my ear, sending a jolt of fire and fear straight through me. ​“I won't reject you. You will be claimed, protected, and possessed. You are no longer Shadow Creek's shame. You are mine, Ember Thorne. And you will be the envy, the obsession, and the absolute focus of every enemy I have.”
