A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother
Amber built an empire she was never allowed to claim.
Brilliant, strategic, and fiercely loyal, Amber was the mind behind a billion-dollar real estate empire—the woman who identified undervalued properties, structured acquisitions, and designed expansion projects that reshaped skylines. But when betrayal strikes, she’s fired, humiliated, and discarded by the man she helped rise to the top.
She walks away with nothing but her intelligence, her dignity… and the projects that were always hers.
What her ex-fiancé never expects is his powerful half-brother.
A billionaire real estate magnate in his own right, controlled, private, and raising two adopted children on his own, he offers Amber something unexpected: a contractual marriage. No romance. No lies. Just mutual benefit. A public wife to stabilize his corporate image—and a strategic partner who understands the business better than anyone.
Amber accepts.
She takes her real estate projects with her—developments she sourced, designed, and negotiated from the ground up—and brings them into her new husband’s company. Entire portfolios shift overnight. Investments follow her. For the first time, her name is on the contracts, her voice dominates boardrooms, and her success is undeniable.
As Amber rises, the real estate empire she once built in silence begins to crumble. Deals collapse without her leadership. Bad investments surface. And the company her ex-fiancé claimed as his own crashes spectacularly—while Amber thrives, wealthier and more powerful than ever.
But what begins as a business arrangement slowly becomes something far more dangerous.
Because power is intoxicating. Trust is fragile. And love was never part of the contract.

Chapter: TonightAmber POVIt took less than twenty-four hours for the accused families to fight back.I wasn't surprised.People with that much money didn't quietly accept being called murderers.They hired lawyers.Public-relations firms.Digital-forensics experts.And, apparently, anyone willing to stand in front of a camera and say the words artificial intelligence often enough to create doubt.The first statement came from one of the families whose private aircraft appeared repeatedly in the island owner's records.They claimed the footage showed safari expeditions.Not human hunts.According to them, the videos had been deliberately edited to remove context.The weapons?For animals.The armed groups?Safari parties.The payments to the island owner?Private hunting fees.The people running through the forest?That footage, they claimed, wasn't real.AI-generated.Within hours, the others followed.Different lawyers.Different families.Almost identical explanations.Some admitted visiting the i

Chapter: Wrong monsterAmber POVI didn't want the island.That had been my first thought when I saw my name on the transfer documents.Several hours later, after a shower, two meals, a medical examination, and enough sleep to make me feel marginally human again, my opinion hadn't changed.Unfortunately, the island was mine whether I wanted it or not.I sat in one of the conference rooms at the River City military base, staring at a copy of the owner's will.Jason sat beside me.Emory and Mr. Stait were across from us.Three lawyers had already explained the same thing in increasingly complicated ways.I still didn't like the answer."So I can't sell it.""No," the lawyer answered."Rent it?""No.""Donate it?""No."I stared at him."What exactly can I do with it?""You can use it."I dropped my forehead against the table.Jason patted my back."There, there."I lifted my head just enough to glare at him."Don't."He was enjoying this far too much."I own an island where people were hunted for entertainmen

Chapter: CongratulationsAmber POVWe were far enough from the island that I had finally stopped watching it.That was when the explosion came.Even through the roar of the helicopter blades, we heard it.A deep, violent sound that seemed to travel across the ocean itself.Everyone turned toward the windows."What was that?" I asked.Mr. Stait was already speaking into his headset."All aircraft, report."One by one, the pilots responded.Nobody had been hit.Then Jason pointed through the window."Amber."I looked.A massive cloud of smoke was rising from the island.From the direction of the beach.My stomach twisted."That was bigger than the others."Secretary Peterson stared at the smoke."Much bigger."Mr. Stait said something quietly into his radio before looking at us."The beach."Nobody needed him to explain further.The place where the bodies had been.The evidence.Possibly the people responsible.Gone.Jason tightened his hand around mine."At least we're not there anymore."I rested my head agai

Chapter: Open oceanAmber POVWe waited.That was possibly the hardest part.After three days trapped underground listening to a category-five hurricane tear the island apart, knowing that helicopters were finally coming for us made every minute feel like an hour.Still, Mr. Stait had been very clear.Do not move until thirty minutes before extraction.So we didn't.Everyone packed quietly.Nothing unnecessary came with us.Water.Medical supplies.Weapons.The evidence we had collected.Alexander's recordings from the beach.Anything that could prove what had actually happened on the island.When my timer finally reached thirty minutes, I stood."Time."Nobody needed to be told twice.Jasmine went first.She opened the emergency exit Jason had discovered and disappeared into the narrow passage.Héctor followed.Then Noah.One by one, we moved.I kept Mr. Stait on the phone until we reached the exit.The sunlight almost hurt my eyes after three days underground.The island looked completely different.Tr

Chapter: Buried the truthAmber POVThe hurricane reached the island fifteen minutes later.At first, it sounded like distant thunder.Then the entire mountain began to shake.The wind howled through the tunnels like some ancient creature trapped beneath the earth, slamming against the cave entrance with enough force to make the walls tremble.Oliver jumped awake at the first deafening gust.Several of the women instinctively covered their ears.Nobody said a word.Nobody complained.The safe house was cold, damp, and uncomfortably crowded. Blankets covered the floor, soldiers slept sitting against the walls, and the air smelled of wet clothes and exhaustion.Still, nobody dared complain.Because outside, nature itself was tearing the island apart.The first night was the worst.The second was simply endless.And by the third day, we had all stopped asking when it would end.Communication with Mr. Stait became sporadic.Sometimes we managed to talk for ten minutes.Sometimes only for thirty seconds.The signal

Chapter: No mercyAmber POVNobody stepped into the hidden rooms.Not yet.Considering everything we had discovered on the island—the tunnels, the hidden women, the command centers, and the fact that people had apparently been hunted there for years—blindly entering an underground bunker seemed like a terrible idea.Jason was the first one to voice it."Before anyone goes in, we need to make sure there aren't any cameras."Franklin immediately nodded."Or microphones."Maurice, one of Cloud Country's guides, stood up from the corner where he had been studying the cave map."I'll help."Jasmine stretched on one of the chairs."You three have fun with your spy movie."Jason ignored her and grabbed a flashlight."Nobody enters until we're done."For the next twenty minutes, the three of them inspected every wall, every vent, and every light fixture.At first, they found nothing.Then Franklin suddenly cursed."Found one."Everyone crowded around him.Hidden behind a ventilation grate was a small black cam

Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King
“I built his empire with my blood and my money. He rewarded me by taking my cousin to our bed.”
For years, I was the invisible Alpha of the Sandwell Pack. While Maxwell claimed his "duties" kept him from me, I was the one balancing the ledgers, securing the borders, and investing my private millions to turn his dying territory into a gold mine.
On my 18th birthday, I finally found out what those "duties" were.
I found my fated mate, Maxwell, in the arms of my cousin, Amelie. they mocked me for being a "useful fool," an unpaid servant who funded their luxury while they shared a bed.
When I exposed their lies to the Pack, they didn’t offer me justice. They chose Amelie’s fake tears and exiled me on the spot.
I didn't steal a cent of their wealth—I left the accounts exactly as I found them: pathetic and empty.
Five years later, the girl they threw away is the woman who owns the world.
A royal decree from the Dragon King forces all Alphas into the elite Alpha Academy. I return not as a victim, but as a billionaire mogul. Maxwell is there, too—not to beg for my forgiveness, but to hunt me down. He’s humiliated, bankrupt, and determined to make me pay for exposing his "perfect" reputation to the world.
But I’m not the defenseless girl he remembers, and I’m not alone. I’ve caught the eye of Sol, the Dragon Prince, a man who finds my power intoxicating.
Maxwell wants my blood for the lies I uncovered. The pack wants my fortune to save their skins. But the Dragon Prince? He’s ready to burn anyone who dares to touch his Queen.

Chapter: Chaos RebornAella POVI don't know how long Althea remained connected to the stone.Seconds.Minutes.Hours.Time had stopped meaning anything inside that cavern.I remained beside her the entire time, one arm around her little body while colors continued flowing across the cave walls.Then, finally...Her hands separated from the stone.I exhaled so sharply my chest hurt."Althea."I immediately reached for her.But the stone pulsed.Once.Twice.Then brighter than ever.The entire cavern filled with silver light.A portal ripped open directly above the lake."What—"Althea floated upward."Absolutely not!"I jumped after her.She disappeared through the portal.I caught her ankle at the last possible second, pulled her against my chest—And the portal swallowed me too.The world spun.Then my feet hit solid ground.I stumbled forward, clutching Althea tightly."Do not do that again."She giggled.Of course she did.Then I looked up.Everyone was there.Sol.Hunter.Marcus.Pamela.Queen Samanth

Chapter: The Forgotten KingAella POVThe door opened without a sound.Beyond it, another staircase disappeared into darkness.I adjusted Althea against my chest, half expecting Sol to suddenly appear behind me and demand an explanation for why our daughter had apparently decided to explore ancient ruins in the middle of the night.Unfortunately for him, he was probably still chasing Riot away from chandeliers."Ready, little Queen?"Althea answered by pointing downward.Of course she did.So down we went.At first, I counted the steps.A hundred.Five hundred.A thousand.Then I lost track.The air became colder the deeper we descended, but strangely, I never felt afraid. The castle's magic surrounded us like a silent guardian, lighting the walls with silver flames whenever the darkness became too thick.Hours seemed to pass.The staircase twisted and turned, spiraling beneath the Void itself.Until, finally, the tunnel opened.I stopped breathing.An enormous cavern stretched before us.The ceiling was so high

Chapter: What the Little Queen KnowsAella POVAccording to the Bloodlines Book, my daughter possessed one of the rarest gifts ever recorded.Immediate Knowledge.The words themselves sounded harmless, almost beautiful.They weren't.The ancient records described it as the ability to know whatever the bearer wished to know.Lost histories.Forgotten languages.Hidden paths.Secrets buried beneath entire civilizations.The bearer could find books no one remembered existed and knowledge thought lost for eons.They simply... knew.The first time I had read those pages, I had felt pride.The second time, terror.Because knowledge was power, and power always painted a target on someone's back.Especially in times like these.Especially with Elias watching us.I looked down at Althea, comfortably settled in my arms as we descended the endless stone staircase beneath the Void castle.She wasn't scared.She wasn't confused.In fact, she looked mildly annoyed by how slowly I was walking.It was impossible to believe that this tin

Chapter: The Little Queen's PathAella POVChaos had not opened his eyes in almost twelve hours.For someone who never stopped talking, joking, or making ridiculous comments at the worst possible moments, the silence felt wrong.Terribly wrong.He lay in one of the castle's ancient chambers, silver energy flowing around his body like a weak heartbeat.Pamela had examined him three times.The healers had exhausted every spell they knew.Nothing worked."He isn't injured," Pamela had explained, frustration clear in her voice. "At least, not physically."Hunter stood by the window, his arms crossed."Then why won't he wake up?"Pamela shook her head."I don't know."That answer terrified me more than any diagnosis could have.Because if the greatest healers in the Sanctuary didn't understand what had happened to Chaos, then we were dealing with something far older than medicine.Something tied to the Void itself.So I searched.The royal library contained thousands of books, some so ancient that even their titles had fa

Chapter: The Weight of a CrownAella POVThe news of Elias's offer spread through the kingdoms before dawn.By the time the sun rose, every pack, every village, and every refugee camp knew the details.Three days.Meet Elias alone.The children return.I spent the entire morning preparing myself for what I thought would come next.I expected desperate parents to demand that I go.I expected accusations.I expected people to remind me that hundreds of children were trapped because of my refusal.After all, they were their sons and daughters.If our positions had been reversed, I didn't know how I would have reacted.So, with a heavy heart, Sol and I entered the Academy's central square, where hundreds of communication crystals projected messages from every corner of the world.And then...To my complete surprise...No one asked me to go.The first message came from an old Luna whose granddaughter had been taken."My Queen, please stay safe."I froze.The woman wiped tears from her face."My granddaughter would never

Chapter: Three DaysAella POVIn the end, Sol's words had changed more minds than anyone expected.Several Alphas who had challenged him in the arena remained at the Academy.Some stayed out of pride, refusing to abandon the people who had chosen sanctuary.Others stayed because, for the first time in their lives, they understood that leadership did not mean standing above their pack.It meant standing beside them.Most of their members had already chosen to remain inside the Sanctuary and the Silver lands.Their children were there.Their mates were there.Their future was there.The Alphas had little choice but to accept reality.For the first time in centuries, pack members were not following titles.They were following safety.I was standing on one of the Sanctuary's balconies, watching the students settle into their new island home, when Marcus approached."The last dormitory is ready."I smiled."Already?"He shrugged."Half the students spent the afternoon helping.
