CROSS - EXAMINATION

Zara Bennett has spent her entire adult life outrunning a surname that was once synonymous with disgrace. After her father’s law firm collapsed in a corruption scandal that left their family in ruins, she clawed her way back to the top alone brilliant, disciplined, untouchable. At twenty-nine, she becomes the youngest woman appointed Queen’s Counsel, feared in London’s courts for her surgical precision and fearlessness before billionaires who think their money is a shield. One of those billionaires is Damon Huxley, media king, tabloid emperor, and a man who has built an empire on influence, secrets, and charm sharp enough to cut bone. He’s used to shaping narratives until Zara dismantles one of his. When she takes on a whistleblower’s case and sues Huxley Media for defamation, she becomes the first person to publicly challenge him and win. He retaliates the only way he knows how by leaking personal secrets about her client, pushing Zara into a fury unlike anything she’s ever felt. She corners him in a live TV debate, exposing his tactics before millions. He watches her walk off that stage like a flame he suddenly can’t control. That night, fate traps them together again at an elite political dinner hosted by the Prime Minister. The room freezes when they lock eyes. The air becomes hazardous. Their conversation crackles with venom, attraction, and unspoken obsession. From that moment forward, hatred becomes foreplay. Forced together through a government-mandated media ethics inquiry, Zara and Damon engage in months of intellectual warfare, strategic seduction, and dangerous vulnerability. What begins as manipulation shifts into an affair that’s equal parts toxic, tender, and terrifying. They meet in hotels under aliases. They send coded messages through news headlines. They argue until they kiss. They destroy each other’s logic while protecting each other’s hearts in the shadows. But secrets like theirs never stay buried. A leaked photo of them ignites a global scandal one that risks her career, his empire, and the fragile trust they’ve built in stolen nights and whispered confessions. As enemies close in, Zara must confront her deepest fear: that she’s repeating her father’s downfall. Damon must face a truth he never imagined possible he has finally found one person he cannot buy, silence, or replace. Together, they must choose between reputation and love, between power and truth, between public ruin and private desire. And the final verdict? Only they can write it.

Bound To A Billionaire Villain

Clara Lovesteen has always had a dark side. Known to many as a snob and highbrow, being new money means one thing: sparkle high and never look down because if you blink —you could drop at any moment. The one thing keeping Clara from total corruption is her father’s ever fleeting approval —and generous allowance. Her whole life she’d barely skated the line of a high scale life; borrowed designer heels, maxed credit cards, and just enough charisma and daddy’s money to get by in a prestigious college without ever getting her hands dirty. And so far, no one had ever doubted her authenticity. With only one semester left until graduation, she crosses paths with Cyra Blackthorne, the secret billionaire heir of an old-world aristocratic dynasty that no one dares to ask questions about. No interviews. No history. No leaks. Just whispered and inherited power. Their collision changes everything when they are bound by something neither of them understands — something ancient, electric, cosmic and impossible to outrun. Clara must risk her pampered life to fight a darkness that has already chosen her. A strange, supernatural power that she never asked for but cannot escape. The glittering world she grew up in begins to show its veiled sharper edges—where high society is less champagne and smiles and more illicit wars, old-money secrets, and power masked as civility. Cyra may be the only one who can teach her to survive it… But he might also be the one to make her darkness blossom. Is she the spark that softens a villain, or the catalyst that completes one? Together they might save the world. Or burn straight through it.

Ascendant Of The Lost Era

A thousand years ago, a catastrophe swallowed the world— and the man responsible for saving it was erased from history. His name sealed. His existence forgotten. His legend lost forever. Now, he awakens in the heart of a future city of steel and light— one that has evolved without him. This era calls its superpowered humans Ascendants. Ninety percent of the population manifests unique abilities: control over elements, space, soul, technology… The powerful rise to the top. The weak are cast aside. And those without abilities — Mundanes — live like they don’t deserve air. In this society built on discrimination and hierarchy, Shinra is an anomaly. Even with his true might sealed away by unknown forces, only 8% of his power remains and that alone marks him as a Tier 1 — the highest classification known to this age. Yet no records of him exist. No origin. No registration. No evidence he ever lived. “A Tier 1 with no past? Does he think the world is stupid?” “Is he a fraud? Or something worse?” The truth? Even Tier 1 cannot contain him. At full power, he once stood beyond all tiers — a sovereign whose existence shook the balance of the world. But now… He knows nothing of his downfall. Not the reason he was sealed. Not the enemy who struck him down. Not even his true name — because the world itself refuses to let him remember it. Only one voice remains: Arios — the System bound to his soul. A loyal servant who tracks his abilities, guides his path, and avoids the one forbidden secret: [Forgive me, Master… I am unable to speak your true name.] As rumors spread of a nameless Tier 1, interest becomes suspicion… Suspicion becomes fear… Fear becomes the spark of war. Because when the seal finally breaks— the era that replaced him will kneel to the one it tried to forget. The lost era’s sovereign has returned. And this time, the world will not be allowed to forget him again.

Alpha’s Daughter: Bound To The Enemy And Marked For Sacrifice

“You want me back now, Ethan?” I laughed softly, though it sounded nothing like joy. “After your pack chained me, called me a spy, and nearly executed me? After you marked me by deceit, caged me, treated me like a slave, made me believe I was nothing—and after you almost killed me for your sacrifice?” My voice broke for a heartbeat before hardening again. “I gave you everything, Ethan—my loyalty, my trust, my heart—and what did I get in return? A dagger through it.” His eyes glistened, his voice cracking. “Soraya, please… let me make it right.” The wind shifted. The Moon’s light brushed my face like a cold touch, painting silver over the tears I refused to let fall—its glow crowning me in quiet defiance. “You can’t fix what you destroyed,” I said, my voice steady now, sharp as the edge of a blade. “You wanted to own me, Ethan. But the tide has turned.” I stepped closer, and the earth seemed to tremble beneath my bare feet. The air thickened, my power humming through it like a storm waiting to break. “I belong to no one,” I whispered— and the night bowed to my voice. Silver flames erupted, curling and dancing across my skin like living fire. It wasn’t pain—it was power, pure and ancient, claiming me as its vessel. My eyes burned with silver light, bright enough to cut through the darkness. Ethan stumbled back, his breath hitching as the weight of my power pressed against him. Slowly, his head lowered—not out of command, but from something deeper. Reverence. Guilt. Surrender. The Alpha bowed to the force he could no longer control—to the woman he could never again break. --- Once, Soraya believed in love. Once, she thought Ethan Vander—billionaire CEO and cursed heir of the Silverfang Pack—was her destiny. But love became a cage, and destiny became a curse. Ethan was born with a curse: any wolf who bonded with him was doomed to die. Yet his father, desperate to end the curse, demanded a sacrifice—his mate’s life in exchange for the curse. The blade was already chosen. Soraya had already been marked. On the night of their bonding, fate revealed its cruel truth. The Moon priestess exposed Soraya’s hidden blood—she was wolf-born, the Alpha’s daughter of Blackwood, the pack that once hunted her from birth for carrying the mark of the moon which they called a curse,and also a rival pack to Silverfang. Branded a spy, she was claimed as Ethan’s prisoner… and there, she discovered the final cruelty: She was carrying his child. But when the Moon finally answered her call, Soraya awakened. Her power rose like silver flame, divine, ancient and unstoppable. The gift once called a curse became her crown. Now, both Blackwood and Silverfang want her—one to tame her, the other to claim her. But Soraya belongs to no one. And neither Silverfang nor Blackwood was ready for what Soraya became. --- Soraya’s journey is not just one of survival, but of awakening—of a woman who refuses to be broken, of a wolf who will not be caged. This is a story of betrayal and curses, but also of love, sacrifice, and the fire of a mother who will protect her child at any cost. --- Reader’s Note: This book contains mature themes, including intense romance and occasional erotic scenes. Reader discretion is advised. If you’re ready to step into a world of forbidden love, blood oaths, and a heroine who will rise from exile to shake the foundations of two rival packs—then welcome to Alpha’s Daughter.
