Return Of The Ex Wife
On their tenth wedding anniversary, Aysha Dalsin spends the entire day preparing a surprise for the man she has loved for years. Candles, flowers, his favorite meal, and a promise to herself that this night will save their broken marriage.
Instead, she watches her husband, Adrian Damascus, bring another woman into their home.
Hidden in the shadows, Aysha hears the words that destroy everything she believed in.
“I never loved her. You are the only one that’s real.”
Humiliated and heartbroken, she walks away from her marriage, only to be forced off the road hours later in what everyone believes is a fatal accident.
The world buries Aysha Dalsin.
But five years later, a mysterious billionaire known as Seraphine Vale rises to the top of the business world. Beautiful, untouchable, and feared by everyone, she has built an empire from the ashes of the life they tried to destroy.
When Seraphine finally steps into the same room as Adrian and his new wife, Mira, the couple freeze in shock.
The woman they buried is standing right in front of them.
This time, she isn’t back to beg for love.
She’s back to take everything they have.
Because revenge is sweeter when your enemies never see you coming.

Chapter: Emergency restraining order against Vale EmpireSERAPHINE POVThe voice on the phone gave me an address on the edge of the industrial district, a bar that looked like it hadn’t been renovated since before I was born, and told me to come alone.It had taken me most of the afternoon to decide whether the call was genuine.Diego ran the number through every tracing program his contacts could access, three times, and every search came back the same way. It was a burner phone purchased with cash two days earlier. There was no way to trace it beyond the store where it had been bought.That alone told me something.A man setting up a trap didn’t usually go to that much trouble to hide his identity unless he had a good reason to be afraid of being found himself.“It could still be a trap,” Diego had said, standing over my desk with his arms crossed while I read through the call transcript for the third time.“Careful doesn’t mean honest.”“No,” I agreed. “But careful usually means scared, and scared men don’t set traps nearly as well as th

Chapter: Boyd is goneMIRA POVI had only a few seconds to decide how much of the truth I was prepared to give Adrian.Five years was a long time to live with a secret. Long enough to learn how to lie without making it sound like a lie. Long enough to know exactly what to say, what to leave out, and when to stop talking before a simple explanation turned into something suspicious.I’d learned that skill long before Adrian came into my life.Growing up, I watched my mother change her version of the truth whenever she needed to. One day something had happened one way, and the next day it had happened completely differently. She always had a reason for it. There was always something she needed to protect, something she needed to hide.I learned from her.By the time I met Adrian Hayes at that fundraiser, eighteen months after he had just married his wife, I already knew how to recognize an opportunity disguised as a man.And Adrian had been exactly what I needed.He was lonely for a married man and He needed

Chapter: With a bird charmADRIAN POVI hadn’t meant to go looking for anything when I sat down at my study desk after the gala. I’d planned to pour myself a drink, stare at the wall for an hour, and try to convince myself that I’d imagined the entire encounter with Seraphine Vale. Maybe grief, stress, and five years of sleepless nights had finally caught up with me in the worst possible way.Instead, I found myself pulling open the bottom drawer of my desk, the one I kept locked and the one Mira thought contained nothing more interesting than old tax documents.It held a small wooden box instead, one I hadn’t opened in almost five years.Inside were the last few things I had never allowed myself to throw away after the funeral. There was a photograph of Aysha at our wedding, laughing at something the photographer had said. A pressed flower from the bouquet she carried that day, dried and fragile now, crumbling slightly around the edges. And a bracelet, thin silver with a small charm shaped like a bird.She had

Chapter: Five years togetherMIRA POVReeves called at two in the morning, which should have told me everything I needed to know before he even said a word.I’d barely slept since the gala anyway. My mind kept going over the same handful of images, the color draining from Adrian’s face, the elevator doors sliding shut on Seraphine Vale’s unreadable expression, and Diego Steel’s voice in that stairwell, telling me exactly how much he already knew.I’d told myself a dozen times throughout the night that I was overreacting. Resemblance wasn’t proof, and plenty of people shared similar features without actually being related or connected in any way. I’d almost managed to convince myself of that until my phone lit up the nightstand with Reeves’s name at an hour when no honest piece of news ever arrived.“This better be worth waking me up for,” I said as I sat up in bed, careful not to disturb Adrian beside me. Though after last night, I doubted he was sleeping at all.He’d come home from the gala pale and distant, bar

Chapter: We control what he finds nextSeraphine POV By nine the next morning, my desk was already buried under three separate reports, each one confirming what Diego had told me the night before in slightly more detail than I actually wanted. Reeves, the investigator out of Geneva, had filed two more inquiries overnight, both routed through a shell firm that took my legal team less than an hour to trace back to Mira personally. Sloppy work for someone who'd spent five years building a life on top of a lie, though I supposed panic had a way of making even careful people careless. "She's scared," Marcus said, dropping into the chair across from my desk with his own copy of the same report. "Good. Scared people make mistakes." "Scared people also do desperate things," I said, scanning the last page again. "I'd rather she made mistakes than desperate moves I can't predict." "You think she'd actually try something." I set the report down and looked out the window at the city stretching below, thinking about t

Chapter: Sleep well tonight, AdrianAdrian POV Mira had disappeared somewhere into the crowd twenty minutes earlier, muttering something about finding the restroom that hadn't quite matched the tightness in her voice, and I hadn't chased after her. I'd spent the better part of an hour watching the doors near the stage, waiting for Seraphine Vale to reappear from wherever she'd vanished to after her introduction, my glass replaced twice by an attentive server who clearly assumed I was simply enjoying the champagne rather than using it as an excuse to keep standing in the same spot. When she finally emerged, moving with that same unhurried, deliberate stride, a small cluster of executives immediately converged on her, all vying for a handshake, a word, a fraction of her attention. I watched her navigate them with practiced ease, gracious but firm, never lingering too long with any single person, until she extracted herself and began moving toward the private elevator bank on the far side of the ballroom, clearly hea

My Boss My Babydaddy
Roses are red, tequila hits hard, and I danced like I owned the damn night.
Now? Everything’s a hot mess.
Emily Hart just landed the dream job, personal secretary to the sinfully rich, dangerously fine CEO of Steele Empire. So naturally, she did what any girl with a fat offer letter and a killer dress would do: hit the club, danced like a vixen, and threw back shots until reality blurred and pleasure took the wheel.
That’s when he happened.
Dominic Steele.
Billionaire boss. Ruthless in the boardroom. Untamed in the bedroom.
He saw her, hips swaying, lips smirking, black dress clinging like a second skin, and he didn’t ask for a name. He just took. One night. One filthy, breathless, back-arching night. No promises. No names. Just raw heat and moans that echoed past midnight.
Until Monday morning happened.
Now, the man who made her beg without words is standing behind a glass desk in a tailored suit,
And she’s the new secretary who can’t look him in the eye without remembering how he made her scream.
She thinks he’s cocky as hell.
He thinks she’s the sweetest kind of chaos.
But when a missed period makes an unexpected appearance, it’s no longer just business.
It’s Daddy, please……. with a whole lot of tension, temptation, and trouble in between.

Chapter: EPILOGUEEmily POV :Two years later.Sophie pressed her hand flat against the door and turned to look at me."You ready?"I looked down at my wedding dress, then back up, then laughed, the nervous kind that comes out before you can stop it. "Ask me again in five seconds.""Emily.""Okay yes, I'm ready, let's go before I start crying and ruin my face."She laughed, grabbed my hand, squeezed once."You look insane by the way, like genuinely stupidly beautiful, Dominic is going to lose his mind.""Good," I said, "that's entirely the plan."The doors opened.The room was full, warm and everyone stood at the same time, I felt Sophie's arm link through mine and we started moving down the aisle, slow and steady.
