My Billionaire Ex's Biggest Regret

My Billionaire Ex's Biggest Regret

Lilian's life shattered on their third wedding anniversary when she walked in to see her husband, Chris, embracing his ex-girlfriend, whom he had promised to move on from, passionately. The injury worsened upon discovering that she was carrying his child. Chris had secretly ensured that Lilian remained on birth control because he didn't want to have a child with her, despite being ready for parenthood, a decision that devastated Lilian, who longed for a family. She was not treated as a partner but rather as a mere convenience and placeholder in his life. During an intense disagreement, Chris slapped her causing her to tumble down the stairs. The fall completely shattered her emotional and physical well-being, challenging her views on marriage, love, and trust. However, determined and steadfast, Lilian vowed to protect herself from his lies and control, ending her connection with the man who had brought her great pain. Chris returned with a strong determination to regain her love just as she was beginning to rebuild her life. He refused to let her go, expressing his realization of his deep love for her. His newfound passion for her was both confusing and infuriating. At the same time, a mysterious stranger entered her life—a man whose quiet admiration for her had endured from the shadows. He offered a love untainted by deceit, a fresh start filled with genuine respect and devotion. Now, Lilian faces an impossible choice: Does she risk her heart again on the man who shattered it, believing his promises of change and redemption?

Chapter: Chapter 64
Bill Darcy has been the secret political boss of the present administration for the past five years.The City, pulsating and living, did not realize the man manipulating it like a puppeteer behind the scenes was one it did not know. He liked the fact that while Damian Rashford was under the limelight, Darcy's subtle manipulations were the ones that ruled supreme. He liked it that way: an unknown man whose untraceable hands were deep into power and secrets.His silence was interrupted by the ring of his telephone. Darcy frowned as he leaned back, answering curtly as always, "Yes?"The man on the line was tense. "Darcy, there's a problem.""Problem?" Darcy's eye rose, tone low and ominous. "I employed you to give me results, not issues."The other man hesitated, then cleared his throat. "It is regarding Rashford. He is asking questions.""What sort of questions?" Darcy's fingers drummed on the desk as he tensed, the jaw locking in preparation.“He’s beginning to suspect. Wants to know w

Chapter: Chapter 63
As Commissioner Jim Cruz sat at his mahogany desk, the half-smoked cigar's cigarette smoke drifted up toward the ceiling.He had invested so much in politics, building this empire stone by stone, and cognizant of the price to be paid of staying atop. With blind-buying and repaying favors, he had built a fortune in riches and power and could even gain a Senate seat.' He seethed with anger at his so-called friends.With a blank look, the man gazed back at Captain Joe Whitely, who sat by the window, his belly bulging against his uniform."So, tell me again, Whitely," Cruz began, his voice low and deadly, "why did news just blindside me that Evelyn Chase was murdered in a damn call house? In our town. You swore there wasn’t a single one left standing."Whitely raised his cigar to his lips, taking a long, languid drag. A smirk crept onto his tobacco-stained teeth. “Oh, there are always call houses, Commissioner. We close ‘em down, and they pop right back up.” He gestured dismissively. “Thi

“Boss?”The voice was shaking and low, unusually uncertain. Rex was never uncertain. But tonight, there was something different.Chris blinked at the screen before him, not quite seeing the soft light of the rom-com spilling out. Rita lay sprawled across his chest, her head under his chin, her hands drawing a soft, automatic path on his shirt. It had taken some time—God, it had taken longer than he'd known he had—to get her to forgive him.He’d messed things up, and tonight was supposed to be an opportunity to make things right. Quiet. Intimate. Just the two of them.Instead, unease began to stir like smoke rising from wet earth.He hadn’t moved, hadn’t even answered Rex. His mind was still heavy, fractured. Caught between the warmth of Rita’s body and the cold, bitter aftertaste of a kiss he had no business remembering. A kiss with Lilian. Unplanned, reckless. The memory haunted him like an open wound on his lips, days old but far from healed.He had decided that he was never going t

"Do you actually believe that it would be that simple to escape?" he mocked.With all her strength, Lilian kicked him hard in the groin, and he screamed out in agony. She ran once more, and she had no idea where she was running to.She simply didn't care where she was running, only that she was out of his company, although she did not succeed in getting far.Not even three steps.A brutal yank caught her ankle. She crashed down again, her chin slamming into the floor. Dazed. Dizzy.He was on her before she could lift her head.“You bitch!” he growled and slapped her hard across the cheek. Pain exploded across her face. Her vision flickered.“For making it difficult, I’ll take my time,” he hissed.No interpreter was needed for what came next.His hands gripped her hips, fingers digging into her waistband. Her breath ceased. No. No, God, no.“I can give you money,” she pleaded. “Please… you don’t have to do this.”But he laughed, lips close enough she could smell the stench of wine and

Chapter: Chapter 60
Lilian first noticed the pain at the back of her head like a war drum. Her eyes flickered open. The living room ceiling loomed above her, near yet distant, warped by the fear welling in her chest.She was tied to a chair—her chair. Thick ropes cut into the skin of her wrists. The scent of sweet wine and sweat filled the air.Then came the voice.“Ahh, you’re awake.”Low. Gruff. Disturbingly casual.“I was wondering how long it’d take before you wake up. I prefer my victims to be awake when I kill them.Lilian was filled with fear. Her gaze followed the voice.As he crept and walked deliberately down the corridor, it seemed that his task was to stage a murder.Half his face was hidden behind a mask. His shoulders were broad and he had broad shoulders, tree trunk-thick arms that were so strong that with the mere flick of the wrist, they could snap bones into two. But it wasn't his size that appeared threatening, although that did seem to loom. It was how he habitually carried himself.H

Chapter: Chapter 59
The incessant ringing of the doorbell attested to the inactivity of Mike Freeway's apartment. He mopped his sweating brow with the edge of his robe as he looked in the direction of the door, nervously. The police cars had arrived only a couple of minutes beforehand, and he knew that the officers would be ringing any moment.Damn it," he cursed through his teeth. What had happened up there? He'd felt the rushing of feet, the muffling, and then the cold silence after that. All the fibers were screaming murder, but he refused to let himself say it. Not now, not when he'd nearly made it vanish, to become transparent and ignored.His gaze roamed over the grimy, dusty room. He had hidden evidence of last night by spilling it into the floor, but the pungent odor of covered-up secrets lingered. None of it had attempted to get out at all.He looked at the dusty cupboard whose battered surface concealed far darker secrets than anyone could ever have imagined. Good that he was aware of the law a

His Broken Vow

His Broken Vow

Bella Manuel, the overlooked Omega of the Greywolf Pack, has spent her life enduring the whispers, the ridicule, and the weight of knowing she will never be more than a background figure in her own pack.

Chapter: Tangled Fate
“Well, hello, Dave. Hello, Bella. It’s nice to finally meet you… like this,” a male voice rang out with unmissable amusement. His voice oozed mischief, and one didn’t need a name tag to guess — it had to be Morgan.“Hi, Bella,” said a girl with a gentle, open smile. Her warmth was genuine — that was Sandra.A warmer, softer voice greeted her with a gentler "Hello." Ben.Bella said a subdued "Hi" into Dave's chest, pressing deeper into the fabric of his shirt as her own heart thudded like a war drum. She could not make herself lift her eyes to any of them. Dave's chest rose beneath her cheek, his laughter gentle but reassuring“Sugar,” he whispered, his voice deep and amused, “are you ever going to come out and meet everyone properly?”Bella shook her head quickly, eyes still shut. There was too much to process — too many strangers, too many eyes. But in a sudden gesture, Dave's soft, commanding hand went to her head, his palm cupping her crown with a gentle pressure. He drew her in, pr

Chapter: Tangled Hearts
Bella's lips opened, and her eyelids closed as Dave kissed her. The kiss began soft and gentle but intensified as he deepened it, burning them with a burst of energy. His hand around her waist held her pressed against him, and her fingers pushed against his smooth hair. Her heart raged, begging to burst forth from her chest.They pulled away at the same time, gasping for air, their gazes fixed, and breathing hard. Bella tiptoed for more, and Dave eagerly leaned down to capture her lips again.​Their lips moved together, urgency building. Dave's tongue found entrance into her mouth, their tongues tangling and teasing. His kiss intoxicated her."Sugar," he moaned. His mouth traveled down her jaw and neck. She rolled her hips, and he growled.He pulled his face out of hers, gasping for breath. She sensed his thumping heart next to hers. Her hair was mussed, her lips puffy, red-looking. Longings scrambled his brain when he saw her."Good heavens," he gasped, running his hands through rump

Chapter: His to Claim
"You are mine," Marcus said, his breath warm against her skin.A wave of panic swept over her. No. Not now. Not in this way.“Stop!” she exclaimed, fighting desperately.Her defiance only appeared to arouse him even more. His lips clung to her neck, his hold intensifying.Then—boom!The force of the blow threw Marcus backward. He collided with the other wall and collapsed to the floor.A murmur spread among the assembled students.Dave loomed above him, his face giving nothing away. His eyes were jet black, unsettlingly void of spirit, and his posture exuded primal, perilous strength. The air in the corridor grew heavy, electrified by his rage.Bella’s heart raced.Dave bent down, his hand grasping around Marcus’s neck. With ease, he raised him from the ground. Marcus gasped for breath, his arm dangling loosely.Three hybrids navigated through the crowd. Morgan and Ben grabbed Marcus, holding onto his shoulders and arms. Sandra came to Bella's side, stabilizing her with a soft hand."

Chapter: Stolen Glances
Sunlight streamed in the window in the morning when Bella was standing in front of the mirror and evaluating her appearance. Something was wrong. Her skin was softer, glowing as if it had been kissed with moonlight. Her brown eyes were no longer dull. They were mesmerizing, hypnotic, and more radiant. Her eyelashes were longer, outlining them with deep, rich curves, and her eyebrows developed a stunning arch, dramatic yet subtle. Even her fuller, redder lips were glossy as if she had just wet them.She stroked her hair, enjoying the way the curls fell in a way never before, darker than ever, flashing light in hypnotic waves. Her body also altered, subtly, noticeably different. Her waist was more defined, hips more curvy, bust promising cleavage she never did before. Her jeans did not fit in the same manner before, the waistband a closer band than she was ever accustomed to.What's wrong with her?A frown tugged at the edge of her lip. Female werewolves would murder for feeling this ba

Chapter: Marked against Will
Bella's stomach twisted as she entered the house and half-packed boxes scattered everywhere in the living room caught her eye. Some were tidily stacked and arranged for the move, but most of their belongings were still in their original positions. Her chest sank with a feeling of falling. Her mom had taken extra effort—packed and planned—but something was amiss. Too hurried. Too excited.She walked in the direction of the kitchen, hoping her mother would be rapidly filling up more, but instead discovered her sitting at the old wooden table, blankly staring out of the window. A steaming mug of tea rested in her hands, undrunk. The atmosphere surrounding her was thick and nearly oppressive."Mom?" Bella called softly.Her mother's eyes closed hard for a moment before she swung around to Bella, wearing a fake smile that did not touch her eyes. "Wow, you have returned."The forced cheerfulness in her tone sent danger signals racing through Bella's mind. Something was amiss."Mom, is somet

Chapter: Soul Ties
Andy bolted out of the room, his exit swift and desperate. No one could blame him. If she had the choice, Bella would have done the same. But that option wasn’t hers anymore.Morgan slapped Dave reassuringly on the back, his face unreadable, and Sandra smiled uncertainly, knowingly at Bella as she departed. Ben stood longer, a twinkle of amusement in his eyes. His slow, widening smile was close to being lazy and untroubled. Winking roguishly, he clouted Dave on the back and departed, leaving Bella and Dave in solitude.The silence hung heavy and oppressive."Hi," Bella growled cautiously, smoothing the hem of her blouse into position.Dave didn't say anything. He just stood there, his intense eyes burning her.He was beautiful today. Dark wash jeans. A black T that hugged his body like a second skin. A cool leather jacket, scuffed just enough to give the impression he didn't care. His dark, rich hair, perpetually slightly undone in an intentional but careless way, accentuated his shar
