MARRIAGE WITH MY HUSBAND'S BROTHER
Reader discretion advised. Adults 18+ only.
Alisa Verene was the stain on her family's name—the illegitimate daughter of House Verene, forever living in the shadow of her perfect half-sister. No matter how hard she tried, no matter how much of herself she gave, she was never enough.
Love, praise, and pride were reserved for Naomi.
Until him. Victor Ravencroft, the second son of a powerful house, saw her—cherished her—and for the first time in her life, Alisa believed she could be wanted. Loved.
But love, too, was a lie.
Naomi destroyed her marriage with a single revelation: she was carrying Victor’s child. The affair hadn’t started after the wedding—it had never ended. Alisa had been nothing more than a pawn, a convenient gateway to the woman Victor truly desired. He married her not out of love, but proximity.
A sister’s castoff. A wife in name only.
Shattered, humiliated, and burned by betrayal, Alisa refused to fall quietly. She demanded a divorce—and with vengeance in her veins, she did the unthinkable. She turned to Leo Ravencroft, Victor’s older brother, the cold and untouchable heir. And with steady eyes and a broken heart, she asked him for a favor that would set the entire Ravencroft name ablaze:
A fake marriage. A lie to rival the one that ruined her.

Chapter: CHAPTER 41.2 rough with me tonight, okay?”“So, what do you want?” The man asked with bored amusement, a cigarette pinched between two fingers as pale smoke curled toward the ceiling. He smirked like someone who’d never been surprised, eyes half on Naomi and half on the woman between his legs that’s openly servicing him as if the room’s shame were a curtain to be ignored.The sight made Naomi flinch but whatever tremor passed through her only hardened her resolve. She fumbled at her bag with hands that didn’t quite stop shaking, then slammed a thick wad of bills down on the scarred table as if force could steady her breath.“I want you to kill this man. Nothing more.” Her voice was flat and measured. She then swallowed with her throat tight and pulse rapidly beating because she knew exactly who she’d come to see. This was a dangerous man, the sort who traded in lives like currency. On-call hits, trafficking, money laundering and kidnapping people with a single phone call. He’s basically a person that has power and cruelty wrap

Chapter: CHAPTER 41.1 “I fucked it all up,”Amidst the chaos, Alisa and Leo stood firm, their hands tightly clasped together. This time, no matter what the world threw at them, they would face it together and never back down. Naomi, too, had chosen her own path, strengthening her resolve to fight for the things she believed she deserved.As for Dominico, not a single day passed without him keeping an eye on Celeste’s situation in jail. Still, he believed she couldn’t do anything anymore not after the gravity of her sins which went beyond the company. She had betrayed Leandro, his son and Leo’s father, and, as Dominico believed, also Victor’s father.Dominico still thought Victor was his grandson by blood, unaware of the truth. Leo, however, knew everything but chose not to reveal it yet not until he was certain that Victor wouldn’t use that information for his own gain.Over time, Leo assisted his grandfather in uncovering the traitor within the company, who turned out to be none other than his own secretary. She had not only c

Chapter: CHAPTER 40.1 Spread wider... Naomi knew it deep down that she could never reach with Celeste anymore. And maybe that was what pushed her over the edge. Her father, Adam, had already turned his back on her and Victor, the man she once thought she had wrapped around her finger, refused to even acknowledge her anymore. With nowhere left to turn, all that was left inside her was anger.It started small then the shouting and snapping at the maids.But soon, Naomi’s rage had no direction and no target. She just wanted to hurt someone, anyone. And when her mother, Clarisse, tried to calm her down that day, Naomi lashed out and shoved her hard enough to make her stumble.Despite that, Clarisse didn’t fight back.She just stayed there, enduring the pain while looking at her daughter like she didn’t recognize her anymore.Naomi had always been graceful, always so careful with how she carried herself like the perfect picture of composure and elegance. But now… she looked wild. Her hair was messy, her eyes glassy with madnes

Chapter: CHAPTER 40 “Please… I’ll do a-anything!” When everything had finally settled between Alisa and Adam who both agreeing to meet once in a while for her sake, Leo found himself driving to a place he’d long avoided: the women’s detention facility where Celeste was held.Dominico had made sure she wouldn’t be able to slip through the cracks this time. No bail, no privilege and no quiet deals behind the scenes.The once untouchable Celeste Ravencroft now spent her days behind metal bars with her name splashed across every tabloid headline. The media circus outside the prison was relentless and reporters from every major network camped by the gate, desperate for even a glimpse of her that the police had to set up barricades just to keep the crowd under control.Inside, though, it was quieter like the silence of disgrace.There, Celeste sat in her cell in a crisp beige uniform that didn’t belong on someone who used to walk on red carpets. Her hair was perfectly brushed, of course it was and even in confinement, she somehow carried h

Chapter: CHAPTER 39 Don’t hold it in...“How are you feeling?” Leo asked, lowering himself onto the edge of the bed. His hand then brushed a strand of hair from her face before he pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead.Alisa let out a small sigh, rubbing at the corners of her eyes. “Well… after all that crying yesterday, my eyes still ache a little but I think I’m okay now. I just have to finish this IV drip…” She gestured weakly toward the clear tube hanging from the corner of the bed.Leo’s gaze followed her hand, lingering first on the IV drip then drifting back to the bandage wrapped around her head as she had a little concussion. His expression softened, a mixture of concern and frustration. “If it hurts even just a little, you need to tell me immediately, okay?”“Okay… fine,” Alisa replied with a faint smile. “You worry too much these days.”“How could I not?” Leo murmured, his eyes darkening with concern. “You’re so fragile… I take my eyes off you for just a few hours yesterday and look at what happens.” He shook his

Chapter: CHAPTER 38 "Oh no! Go deeper, please!” After several days behind bars, Dominico finally made up his mind to visit his daughter-in-law.His slow, deliberate footsteps echoed through the dim corridor, the air heavy with metal and disinfectant and when the guard’s keys jingled and the door creaked open, Dominico’s cold eyes immediately found Celeste.She sat behind the glass and saw her once-composed figure was now fragile and diminished by disgrace; her hair was disheveled, her skin pale yet her sharp, calculating eyes still held a flicker of defiance.“Father,” she greeted while forcing a brittle smile, pretending for a fleeting second that this was one of their usual meetings and not an interrogation between a grieving father and a woman accused of murder.“Cut the act,” Dominico said, his tone clipped and sharp as he sat across from her. His voice also trembled with contained rage. “You know why I’m here. I want you to tell me the truth. Every damn detail about my son’s death.”Celeste blinked, her expression flickering b

Her Billionaire Brothers’ Protection
She thought marrying the city’s most dazzling billionaire CEO would give her happiness. Instead, she was met with cold indifference, mockery from his relatives, and nights spent alone in an empty marriage.
When he shamelessly brought his first love into their home, her patience shattered. With trembling hands but unwavering resolve, she threw the divorce papers on his desk.
“You’ll regret this,” he warned with a cruel sneer.
But she didn’t look back.
Just when the world thought she had lost everything, a shocking truth unraveled—she wasn’t ordinary at all. She was the long-lost daughter of a powerful dynasty.
Her eldest brother, a business tycoon, showered her with billions in shares.
Her second brother, a ruthless lawyer, stripped her ex-husband of everything.
Her third brother, a superstar adored worldwide, declared to the media, “This is my one and only sister.”
From ashes, she rose into a queen no one dared touch. Her glow lit up the world, and every man who once scorned her could only watch in regret.
When her ex-husband finally came crawling back, begging for one more chance, her brothers only sneered—
“Dream on. A man like you isn’t even worthy to stand in her shadow.”

Chapter: CHAPTER 5SO many days had passed but Cindy hadn’t confronted her husband about that day—the day she had walked in and caught Alexander with another woman, right there in their own bedroom. It should have shattered her completely but after three years of marriage, this betrayal had, tragically, become just another thread in the fabric of her life.She had caught him before.She remembered the secretary in his office, the artist he flirted with under the pretense of business, the businesswoman whose presence in a meeting was more than professional, the entertainer in the bar whose laughter had once grated against her heart.Each time, she had witnessed the indiscretions firsthand, her chest tightening, her stomach knotting with hurt, yet somehow, because she loved him,she let it slide.Naïve, she told herself, foolish in love—she still let him touch her, still made herself vulnerable to him, hoping that the intimacy might tether him somehow. She had given him herself, fully and freely, even aft

Chapter: CHAPTER 4“YOU'RE still not pregnant, Miss Choi,” the doctor said, his eyes fixed on the monitor in front of him. His voice was calm, professional but the words hit Cindy like a cold wave.She looked down at her hands resting on her lap, fidgeting nervously. Her fingers twisted the hem of her dress as a lump formed in her throat. She was on the verge of crying again, the helplessness of the moment pressing down on her chest.“It could be because of your emotional state, Miss,” the doctor continued gently. “I advise you not to overthink everything. Try to let go of your worries. If you need a change of perspective, perhaps a trip to somewhere peaceful, surrounded by nature… maybe even with your husband, if possible.”Cindy said nothing.‘How can a trip like that happen when my husband won’t even take a look at me?’Her lips parted slightly, but no words came.Then she felt the weight of three years pressing down on her—the quiet tension in her marriage, the constant pressure and the unspoken exp

Chapter: CHAPTER 3“ARE you sure it’s her this time, brother?”Jace’s voice was calm, measured but there was a hint of concern beneath the surface.“Well, there’s no harm in trying again, right?” the second brother replied while leaning back slightly in his chair, fingers tapping against the polished mahogany desk.“Yeah, you’re right,” Maxwell admitted with a small nod, though the crease in his brow betrayed the tension he felt.“But what if she’s a fake again? Like before?” the youngest brother asked with a trace of unease in his usually confident tone.Lucas Han’s eyes narrowed slightly with a sharp glint of determination in his gaze. “I’ll make sure that would never happen,” he said, his voice firm, leaving no room for doubt.The vast office of Titan Core Corporation seemed to echo with their words.The room was sleek, modern and imposing, glass walls overlooking the city skyline from floor to ceiling, a silent testament to the power the eldest Han brother wielded. Here, three figures gathered in wh

Chapter: CHAPTER 2THREE years had quietly slipped by since Cindy married Alexander Choi—the formidable billionaire CEO of Choi Global Holdings, an empire with deep roots in finance and investment. To the outside world, their marriage had been nothing short of a fairytale: the orphan girl who married into unimaginable wealth and power.It was also the very company that had poured money into her adoptive family’s real estate and infrastructure business, giving it the fuel to rise higher, stronger and more prominent than ever before.In society’s eyes, Cindy had become the bridge, the jewel that tied her family to an empire.But behind the glittering façade, Cindy herself remained a stranger to it all.She never understood the intricate workings of Choi Global Holdings, nor did she have the chance to. Words like investment portfolios, subsidiaries, equity shares—they were foreign sounds to her, nothing more than murmurs in conversations she was never invited to join.And the reason was painfully simple.H

Each day was nothing more than an endless cycle of misery, pain and a loneliness so heavy it gnawed at her small heart.At ten years old, everything seemed to change.A man in a crisp black suit appeared before her in the orphanage where she had lived since she was five. He spoke gently, extended his hand and told her she would finally have a home. For the first time, Cindy allowed herself to believe that perhaps—just perhaps—her life could be filled with warmth, happiness and meaning.She had imagined many possibilities but never this: to step out of the cold, crumbling walls of the orphanage and into the glittering grandeur of a mansion. Her little hands had trembled as she touched the polished marble floors, her wide eyes reflecting crystal chandeliers that seemed to sparkle like stars.But that dream of belonging shattered almost as quickly as it came.She was introduced to her new stepmother, a woman with a smile that never
