HIS UNCLE’S WIFE: BILLIONAIRE’S REGRET
“Nephew…can you explain why my wife knows you?” The question came from Damien, my new husband.
Brian stared at the ring on my finger, then slowly, his eyes lifted to the man standing next to me. The man whose arms were tightened around my waist.
Everyone in the room was staring at me, and the man standing across from me had just turned white.
My ex-husband, The husband who abandoned me three years ago. The husband who was apparently… Damien’s nephew.
~~~
I thought I had buried that part of my life. The grief. The betrayal.
The little pink coffin that took my daughter away forever and Brian, the man who left me alone in the hospital while our child was dying.
Three years later, I finally learned how to breathe again. In other to repay the kindness of the Stark family, I decided to marry a stranger.
Damien is cold, controlled and impossible to read. A billionaire heir trapped in a one year marriage contract by his families.
I married him and for the first time in years, I felt free… Until one family dinner changed everything. Now my dead marriage isn’t so dead. My ex-husband wants a second chance.
My new husband wants answers.
And Damien has just discovered that the woman he calls wife once belonged to his own blood.
The problem? Damien doesn’t share. And he certainly doesn’t let go…Not of what’s his.

Chapter: Chapter 41[Later That Morning]Damien stepped out of the mansion when he noticed Vivian standing near the driveway, apparently waiting for him.He slowed slightly, his expression becoming guarded. “Vivian?”She smiled and immediately stepped into his path, holding a neatly packed box with both hands. “I wanted to give you something before you leave.”Damien glanced at the box, then at her. “What is it?”“Lunch.”His eyebrows lifted slightly. “Lunch?”“Yes.” Vivian held the box out toward him. “I prepared it myself.”Damien’s expression remained unreadable. “You didn’t have to do that.”“I know.” She smiled. “But I wanted to.”Damien took a step toward his car, clearly intending to end the conversation, but Vivian followed. “Damien, please.”He stopped and looked at her.Vivian carefully opened the lid, revealing several neatly packed dishes inside. “I know you’re busy, and you probably won’t have time to go out for lunch, so I thought this would be useful.”Damien looked at the food for a mome

Chapter: Chapter 40[The Next Morning]Morning sunlight slipped through the curtains, spreading softly across the bedroom.Katie woke slowly, her mind taking a few seconds to register where she was. She had fallen asleep beside Damien, and for a moment, the quietness of the room made everything that had happened the previous night feel distant.She turned her head and found Damien still asleep.His usually controlled expression had disappeared completely, replaced by a rare peacefulness that Katie had hardly ever seen. His dark hair was slightly disheveled, and the faint crease between his brows had disappeared.Katie stared at him for several seconds before quickly looking away. Why was she admiring him?She pulled the blanket higher and quietly sat up, determined not to wake him. Before she could reach the bathroom, a soft knock sounded against the door.Katie froze. She quickly adjusted her robe before walking toward the entrance.“Come in.”The housekeeper opened the door slightly and bowed. “Mrs. St

Chapter: Chapter 39Damien stood at the doorway, his eyes fixed on Katie and what she wore.Katie could feel her heartbeat becoming increasingly difficult to control. She had rehearsed this moment in her head several times, yet now that Damien was standing in front of her, every thought of how she would act seemed to disappear.Damien finally moved. He closed the door behind him before walking toward her, his expression impossible to read. “Katie.”She lowered her eyes. “Yes?”His gaze briefly settled on her before returning to her face. “Why are you dressed like this?”Katie’s fingers tightened together. “I thought…” She hesitated, suddenly embarrassed by the decision she had made only minutes earlier. “I thought it was time we talked about the contract.”Damien stopped in front of her, Katie’s eyes raised to meet Damien’s dark gaze. His eyes searched hers.In a split second, Katie felt a warm sensation around her lips. Damien kissed her…Damien was kissing her?!She was too shocked to react at first bu

Chapter: Chapter 38When they finally arrived home, the evening sky had darkened, leaving the mansion surrounded by the soft glow of lights.Damien parked the SUV at the covered entrance before stepping out and walking around to Katie’s side.He opened the door for her, and Katie carefully stepped down, her new Dior heels clicking softly against the floor.She glanced at them again and smiled.“You really like those shoes,” Damien remarked.Katie looked at him. “Maybe.”“That sounds like a yes.” She laughed softly before walking toward the entrance with him. The moment they entered the mansion, one of the maids approached to take Katie’s handbag, but Damien handed it over himself.“I’ll take it upstairs.”Katie looked at him in surprise but said nothing. They eventually reached the staircase, and after exchanging a brief goodnight, Katie continued toward her bedroom while Damien headed toward his study.Once inside her room, Katie closed the door behind her and leaned against it for a moment.She releas

Damien had one hand in his trouser pocket, his expression calm as usual, but the moment Katie saw him, something inside her softened.Without thinking, she stepped forward and wrapped both arms tightly around his waist.Damien froze. The few nearby employees immediately became very interested in anything other than the two of them.Katie pressed her cheek against his chest, holding him as though she had been waiting all day to see him.Damien slowly lowered his gaze toward her. “Katie?”She didn’t answer immediately. He could feel the tension leaving her body, and after a brief hesitation, he placed one hand gently against her back.“Long day?”Katie nodded

I came here because I wanted to explain—”“I’m not interested.”Brian stared at her, clearly caught off guard by the bluntness of her response.Katie stood slowly from her chair and walked around the desk, stopping a few feet away from him. “You keep coming here as though you have some unfinished business with me, but I don’t understand what you expect me to do about it.”Brian’s expression tightened. “I want you to listen to me.”“And then what?” Katie asked. “Am I supposed to forgive you? Cry because you finally decided to explain yourself? Or perhaps I should welcome you back into my life because you suddenly realized that you made a mistake?”“That’s not what I’m saying.”

Chapter: Chapter 0132The private hospital room had grown quiet over the last three days, mostly because Dominic was recovering much faster than every doctor expected.The gunshot wound in his leg still hurt whenever he moved too suddenly, but the swelling had reduced greatly and he no longer looked as pale as he did the first night Rachel almost lost him.Morning light slipped softly through the large windows while Dominic sat halfway upright against the hospital bed, one arm resting behind his head as Rachel sat beside him carefully peeling an orange.“You’re staring at me,” Rachel muttered without looking up.Dominic smirked slightly. “You’ve been peeling that orange for ten minutes.”Rachel finally looked at him. “Because you keep distracting me.”“I’m lying here injured and somehow I’m still the problem.”Rachel rolled her eyes before separating one piece of the orange and handing it to him. “You’re always the problem.”Dominic took it from her slowly. “That’s rude.”“You survived getting shot.

For one sharp second, nobody inside the room spoke.Bryce looked worse than before. Bruises still covered parts of his face from the fight at the cliffside, and one side of his lip remained slightly swollen, but despite all of that, he still stood there calmly beside Evangeline like nothing had happened.Rachel sat upright immediately beside Dominic’s hospital bed. “What is he doing here?”Dominic’s jaw tightened visibly. “Why aren’t you in prison?”Bryce opened his mouth slightly, but Evangeline answered before he could speak. “Because I got him out,” she said clearly.Rachel stared at her in disbelief.Evangeline walked further into the room

The smell of medicine filled the quiet hospital room while faint morning light slipped through the curtains near the window.He inhaled carefully and immediately regretted it when pain tightened sharply through his chest.A low curse nearly left his mouth before he finally noticed the figure sleeping beside his bed.Rachel.She sat curled awkwardly against the side chair with her head resting near his arm, one hand still loosely holding onto his hospital blanket like she had fallen asleep trying not to let go of him.Dominic stared at her silently.Dark circles rested beneath her eyes, and strands of hair had fallen messily across part of her face. She looked exhausted in a way that made guilt tighten painfully inside him.The memories from the previous night slowly returned all

Her expression remained cold and completely steady, like someone who had waited years for this exact moment.Rachel stared at her in disbelief. Dominic remained half on the ground several feet away, breathing heavily while blood continued running down his injured leg.Bryce slowly released Dominic’s collar and turned fully toward Marissa.“Marissa…” he muttered.Smithfield coughed violently again.

HER SCENT, HIS UNDOING
“She came to serve him, never knowing she would ruin him.”
“We are not mates,” I say clearly. “I am a maid, and you are the Alpha, which means, whatever confusion happened earlier needs to end immediately because I will not entertain that kind of intimacy next time.”
Draven remains still.
“And just in case you mistake me for a harlot because of this ridiculous mate nonsense,” I add sharply, “let me make myself very clear Alpha. I am here to clean your room, not to throw myself at you!”
***
Seren lost everything in a single night. Her marriage, her family and the life she once called hers. Cast out, stripped out of her name and status, she runs to the last place anyone would look for her: a rival pack ruled by an Alpha betrothed to marry another.
Invisible, powerless, and safe, she stayed in the pack until the Alpha notices her. Not because of her face nor her past, but because of her scent.
Torn between duty and bond he refuses to acknowledge, Draven is determined to keep his distance, even as his control begins to fracture.

No… No…. My fingers tighten unconsciously around the fabric of my oversized uniform. I know her! I remember her standing beside my mother years ago, laughing. I remember her drinking tea in our garden while speaking with my mother in a voice too quiet to hear. Tabitha. Draven’s mother. She was my mother's former best friend before everything changed. After Draven’s father died, they accused our pack of murder and the both packs finally became enemies. My heartbeat accelerates. Shit!… she can’t recognize me now, right? My hair is black now and my wolf is sealed. My scent… my thoughts stop. My scent… I swallowed hard, Seraphina didn’t hide my scent, no wonder Draven noticed me so quickly and found out I was his mate. I need to go back to Seraphina… Her eyes move to Draven, then to Marcel, then slowly

Neither of them look like they are joking and my disbelief quickly turns into outrage.“I’m sorry,” I say slowly, my voice cutting through the silence with dangerous calm, “did you just say I’m moving into his quarters?”Marcel opens his mouth to speak but I immediately raise my hand.“No,” I snapped before he could speak. “Actually, don’t answer that because I heard you perfectly fine.” The tension inside the hall increases instantly.Several maids lower their heads further like they are trying to avoid being assoc

The overly long maid uniform hangs around like an enemy sworn to destroy whatever dignity I have left. I swear, if I survive long enough in this pack, I’ll burn every piece of fabric Gwen forces me to wear.I take one step and the sharp sting in my ankle immediately betrays me, my limp is obvious.“Careful,” Beta says, moving slightly forward like he intends to help me. I instantly glared at him, “Forget it.”His brows raise in amusement. “I was only trying to–““I know, and I’m trying to leave,” I cut in sharply.

The moment she walked into my room, my wolf was not calm anymore. He kept screaming. Mate. Mate.

Chapter: Chapter 004: Mate? Impossible.~Seren~ I didn’t understand what was happening to my body. That was the first honest thought that cut through the storm inside my head as Alpha Draven’s hand stayed wrapped around my wrist. He was holding me in place against the wall of his private chamber. His eyes did not leave mine…not even for a second. “Mate,” he said again, lower this time and I felt the pull. Not physical pain, not even attraction in the way I understood it. I felt the urge to kiss him right there, I want to claim him. My breath caught as warmth spread through my skin in waves I couldn’t explain and I hated the fact that my body reacted before my mind could catch up. I hated that my thoughts were fractured in two opposing directions. One screaming at me to stay because something in me recognized him, while the other clawed violently at my awareness reminding me of who I was in this pack and what men like him represented in my bloodline history.

Even before exile, before everything collapsed, I knew that name so well.My father’s voice echoed in my head, “That man is not to be trusted. He is our nemesis! An enemy to our pack.”And now…I was being sent to his room, dressed in a servant outfit. Seriously, life has
