The EX-Wife Returns
She was his wife. But she was never meant to be.
On the day Calla married Damien Calloway, his first love, Selene, stood beside her, as her maid of honor. The world believed Calla had won. That she had claimed one of the powerful men in the city. They were wrong.
For three years, she played the perfect wife, managing his business, protecting what she had to . But behind closed doors, Selene never left. She worked beside Damien, whispered in his ear, waited for Calla to fall.
One accusation. One setup. And Calla was dragged away in chains for a crime she didn’t commit. Damien never defended her. Never called. Never visited. Instead, he gave Selene everything, his home, his name, his life.
For five years, Calla rotted in prison. Forgotten. But now? She’s free.
She won’t beg. She won’t cry. She will make them pay.
To destroy Damien, she needs his greatest enemy, Killian Black. Cold. Drop dead handsome but yet Dangerous. A man who could crush Damien’s empire with a single move. But Killian doesn’t trust her.
So she made him an offer.
“Hire me… and I’ll make you king.”
Killian smirked. “I’m already a king,” he said, leaning back in his chair. “But… you can do something else for me.”
Now, Calla must decide: will she bring down the man who betrayed her, or lose herself to someone even more dangerous?

Chapter: Chapter 115: Not one but twoVincenzo stepped out of the company. He slid into the cool leather seat of his car, a thin, cruel smile on his lips. The spy he had planted in Killian’s house, the quiet maid who no one noticed, had been right. Calla was alone and vulnerable except that Neva was usually everywhere with her but that was still perfect. He had said his piece. He had laid out his simple, terrible choice for her. She could listen, do as she was told, and live. Or she could be difficult, and end up in a grave next to that of the one he had dug for Killian. He started the engine, the low purr a satisfying sound. Later that day after the whole paperwork and Vincenzo's visit. Calla and Neva went to the hospital, the sterile smell of the hospital filled Calla’s nose. She clutched Neva’s arm, her fingers tight. A black mask and a large cap hid most of her face, but nothing could hide the fear in her eyes. The ultrasound room was cold. The doctor, a friendly older man with glasses, smiled at her as she lay

Chapter: Chapter 114: Don't trust himCalla was quiet for a long moment. The anger was not in her eyes, but a deep sadness. She let out a soft sigh, the fight seeming to leave her shoulders for a second, replaced by a heavy understanding. “I am sorry,” she said, her voice low and clear. It wasn’t an apology to him, but for him. For the situation. “I am truly sorry for what happened to you. To both of you. To Helen. That is a… a terrible pain to carry. A weight no one should have to hold.” Vincenzo watched her, his expression unreadable, but he didn’t interrupt. She took a slow breath, choosing her words with care. “But you know… you both lost her. You both lost someone important to you. I hear it when you say her name. You lost her too. That pain… it belongs to both of you. It’s a shared hurt. Not a weapon for one to use against the other.” “You don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said, but his voice lacked its earlier sharpness. It was defensive. “Maybe I don’t,” she admitted. “But I know what it is to lo

Chapter: Chapter 113: The StoryVincenzo Settled in on the chair comfortably .the smile he worn before was gone. He looked at his hands for a moment. He seemed to be gathering his thoughts. The flirty man had disappeared. In his place was someone older. Someone carrying a heavy weight. “Helen was...." He looked lost in the memory for a second. “She was sweet. She was kind...”” he began. His voice was much quieter now. “We found her, or maybe she found us, on the streets. Me and Killian. We were just boys trying to be men. Our gang was our only family. And she became a part of it.” He looked up at Calla. “You know our father was a bad man. He beat us. The night he beat our mother to death… and he decided to hit me next… that was the night everything changed. Killian, he was always the brave one. He took our father’s gun. He shot him in the head. He saved me. We ran. The street was our home after that.” Calla said nothing. She just listened. This was a part of the story she did not know. "And Helen was like a

Chapter: chapter 112: I'm all ears The walk to the visitor’s area felt longer than usual. Calla’s heels made soft sounds on the clean floor. Her mind was busy, full of other thoughts. She was not thinking about the past. She had locked that door long ago. So when she turned the corner and saw the man standing there, her whole world stopped for a single, silent second. It was Vincenzo. He was leaning on the wall, but when he saw her, he stood straight. A slow smile spread across his face. It was the same smile that once made her heart light. Now, it only made her feel tired. “Nice seeing you again, Calla,” he said. His voice was, smooth and deep. Calla stared at him. She said nothing. Her face was calm, but inside, a storm had started. Neva, who was walking close behind, stepped forward fast. Her hand touched the gun at her side. “What is this Carbon doing here?” she asked coldly, her voice like ice. She looked ready to throw him out. Calla lifted her hand to stop Neva. She didn’t look away from Vincenzo. “It’s

Chapter: Chapter 111: The visitor Neva walked into La Fiamma from the back, she wasn't interested in passing the front which intially looks like a restaurant. When she entered the big, heavy doors closed behind her with a soft sound, cutting her off from the world outside. Inside was quiet and rich, filled with the smell of smoke and leather. It felt like a place full of power and secrets. She went straight to Killian’s study. Her boots made no sound on the thick carpet. The study was dark, lit only by one lamp on the desk. Shadows moved on the walls full of books. She bowed a little, showing respect. “ Good day Boss.” Killian sat behind his desk. A cigar burned slowly in his hand, the red tip glowing. His sharp eyes left the papers on the desk and looked at her. “How is Calla?” His voice was flat, but heavy with meaning. “She’s strong. She’s doing well,” Neva answered. She took a deep breath. “Boss, I think you should tell her the truth.” Killian leaned back in his chair. The leather creaked. Smoke came from his

Chapter: Chapter 110: La mujer del jefe.“Boss…” Mateo began, his voice quiet but firm. “I know! I know, okay?” Killian snapped, running his uninjured hand through his hair. “Just… I need Calla to be safe. That is all that matters now. This… this farce is the only shield I have left to give her.” Mateo took a step closer. “I think you keep underestimating Calla. She is stronger than you think. She has a fire in her. She is not a fragile thing to be locked away. she has survived.” Killian’s shoulders sagged, the anger draining out to be replaced by a profound exhaustion. “That was what we said when Helen was alive,” he whispered, the name of his dead ex hanging between them like a ghost. “We said she was strong. We said she could handle it. And look what happened to her. I dragged Calla into this life, and I will get her out before it is too late.” He finally looked at Mateo, his eyes filled with a grim, unshakeable determination. “I have to let her go.

Is that what this is about? Should we really talk about betrayal uh, you’ve always been so dramatic.”“Stop twisting everything!” Callan shouted. “You took something from me.”Hazel looked between the two of them. “What exactly happened between you two?”Lucien smirked. “Want to tell her, brother? Or should I?”Callan clenched his fists. “Don’t.”Hazel stepped between them. “Enough! Both of you. I can’t take this anymore.”She turned to Lucien. “You said the bond between me and Callan was weak.

But I do think it’s time I paid my dear brother a visit.”“You’re going to harm him,” Hazel accused, her voice rising with alarm.“What? No,” he said, raising a brow. “Is that what he told you? That I’m dangerous?” He gave a soft laugh. “I’m not. If I truly were, I would’ve ripped him apart a long time ago.”“But you tampered with his memories,” Hazel shot back. “You weakened our bond!”“Yes,” Lucien said simply. “I did. I tampered with his memories because I needed time with you. I needed you to remember who you are—beyond the mate bond, beyond him.

I didn't know you were going through that too."Callan's expression softened, and he reached out to take her hand. "Hazel, I understand why you're angry. I understand why you don't trust me right now. But please, don't go back to Lucien. He's dangerous. He's not who you think he is. He's been lying to you, manipulating you. He wants to use you for his own purposes. He can't be trusted."Hazel felt a pang of uncertainty. Could callan be right? Was Lucien really manipulating her? She thought back to everything he had told her, everything he had shown her. It had all seemed so real, so true. But then again, lucien was a master of illusions. He had admitted that himself."What if he's right, callan?" Hazel asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

She could even try and understand what is going on in her bond with callan, the bond was strong but something was pulling her back, the kiss with lucien just made things clear that it was broken, even the moon goddess said so. She took a shaky breath. What if she had more than one mate bond, the thought of having another mate scared her, the kiss felt like a bond, like a mate bond, She shook her head, trying to clear the thoughts. But it was no use. The questions kept swirling in her mind. What was she going to do now? The answer was clear. She needed to confront Callan. But she was afraid. Afraid of what he would say. Afraid of how he would react. And most of all, afraid of the truth. But she couldn’t keep running. She couldn’t keep hiding. It was time to face the truth, no

Reborn as a dragon Queen
She was the lowest among them, an omega meant to serve, to obey, to be forgotten.
Until the Alpha touched her.
Until he marked her with words that felt like a promise... and shoved her off a cliff like she was nothing.
Ayla thought betrayal had a name, a face, a heartbeat she once trusted.
She thought the crashing water would be her grave.
But death didn’t claim her.
The dragon did.
She awakens not in darkness, but in silk sheets soaked with sweat, her body wracked with fire, strangers calling her Queen Liliana.
The child they beg her to bring into the world is no wolf pup, it’s something older, deeper… and hers.
Now fire sings in her veins. Scales burn beneath her skin.
She remembers being Ayla. But they swear she is a queen, reborn through flame and fury, the last of the dragon-blooded line.
Torn between two lives, two names, two fates…
Was she reborn by fate’s hand, or was she always meant to rise?
Because if this isn’t death, then it must be the beginning…
of the Dragon Queen.

Chapter: Chapter 11: New VoicesAyla sat on the bed. Her heart beat fast. She heard two voices in her head. They were not her thoughts. Eren was on her knees. She looked scared. “My Queen What are you saying? Please talk to me! What is happening?” Ayla held up a hand. “Wait,” she whispered. She closed her eyes. She tried to talk back with her mind. Are you real she thought. The first voice answered. It was calm and clear. I told you. I am Seris. I am your wolf. I have been asleep for a long time. The second voice was deeper. It felt old. And I am Veylara. I was the dragon of the queen before you. Liliana. I slept too. Your anger woke me up. Ayla’s eyes flew open. She looked at Eren. A cold fear shot through her. She could not tell Eren about the wolf. No one could know she was not the real Queen Liliana. Her secret was more important than ever. “wow they are real,” she said, careful with her words. “Who is real?” Eren asked. She was still confused. “The beast,” Ayla said.

Chapter: Chapter 10: The Beasts awoken Ayla’s eyes fluttered open. The world was heavy, her body like stone. Every breath felt slow, and her head ached as if fire had burned through her veins and left her hollow. She tried to move but her limbs refused. Her gaze drifted to the floor. The blackened mark was still there, a burn, sharp and ugly, proof of what she had done. The memory struck her all at once: her anger, the flames rushing from her hands, the terror in Thorne’s eyes… then her conversation with Eren before falling asleep. She whispered to herself, her voice thin and broken. “The fire… it takes everything. It leaves me empty.” The door creaked open. Eren slipped inside, carrying a tray. When her eyes fell on Ayla, her face lit with relief. “My Queen! You are awake,” she said, hurrying forward. Ayla tried to smile but her lips barely moved. “I feel drained. Like… like life was poured out of me.” “I noticed it,” Eren murmured, setting the tray on the table. “All your strength went into that fire. Then you col

Chapter: Chapter 9: The First SparkThe sky was red like fire as the suns went down. Ayla stood by the window. The air was quiet, but inside her chest, the anger still burned. It was not sharp anymore. It was slow, steady. A warm coal deep inside. The door opened. She did not need to turn. She felt him. His anger filled the room before he even spoke. King Thorne walked in. The door slammed shut behind him. Eren, who was folding clothes near the bed, jumped. Her hands shook. She bowed fast. “Your Majesty.” The King’s eyes cut toward her. Just one look. Eren lowered her head and hurried out. She did not dare stay. The room was silent now. Just Ayla and the King. Thorne stood in the center. His jaw was tight. His fists were closed. He did not speak yet. Ayla turned slowly from the window. She faced him. Her back was straight. She was not afraid. At last, he spoke. His voice was low, too calm. “You shamed me today.” “You shamed me first,” Ayla said. Her voice was even. His eyes darkened. “I am the King. I cannot b

She did not carry food. She carried a dress. It was black, long, and heavy. “My Queen,” Eren said softly. “It is time. We must get you ready.” Ayla sat up slowly. Her body was tired, but her heart was not weak anymore. Yesterday’s tears had burned away. What stayed inside her now was fire. “The funeral,” Ayla whispered. “Yes,” Eren said. She lowered her eyes. Ayla stood. Eren helped her into the black dress. The cloth was smooth, cold on her skin. Eren brushed Ayla’s hair with slow, careful hands. She leaned close and whispered, “You must be strong today. The King, he will—” “I do not care what the King wants,” Ayla cut in. Her voice was low, but it was not soft. It was like stone. Eren froze. Her hands stopped.

Again and again, the cliff. The wind. Caius’s cold eyes staring at her while she fell into the dark. She woke with a sharp gasp. Her heart pounded. The room was bright.

He is coming now.” Ayla’s heart jumped. “Now? No, I am not ready—” The big wooden door flew open. It slammed against the wall with a loud crack. A man stood there. Tall. Wide shoulders. His black armor shone like stone. His eyes were red, as if he had not slept. But there was no sorrow in them. Only fire. This was the King. This was Thorne. He walked in slowly. Each step was heavy, loud. His boots struck the floor like drums. He smelled of cold iron and old blood. Eren bent low, bowing her head. “Your Majesty, w
