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 152The morning was impossibly quiet.Sunlight crept across Lilian’s living room, tracing soft gold over the floor, her shoes, and the small suitcase by the door. The air itself seemed to pause—waiting.Lilian stood before the mirror, fastening a delicate necklace around her throat. She stared at her reflection for a long moment—not because she doubted, but because she finally knew.This woman—with scars, with memories, with breath still trembling—had come back to life.A soft knock.Jack stood in the doorway, dressed in a simple dark shirt, sleeves rolled up, badge clipped to his belt—but today, he was not just a detective.He was the man who once stood between her and death.The man who guarded without demanding.Who stayed without asking for repayment.He hesitated. “Are you ready?”Lilian smiled gently. “For the first time in a long time… yes.”They walked out together, leaving the door unlocked—she would never again live behind cages she didn’t build.*********The courthouse felt

Chapter: Chapter 151The city had begun to breathe again.Weeks had passed since the explosion. The news cycle, desperate for new meat, moved on to elections, celebrity scandals, and stock crashes. But for those who lived the story—not watched it—life hadn’t returned to “normal.”Normal was gone.What they had now was… something different.Something raw.Something real.*********Lilian walked through the park near her apartment, clutching a warm paper cup between her palms. Joggers passed. Children laughed. Dogs barked at pigeons—life’s orchestra continuing without apology.Her steps were slow—not because her body was weak, but because she was learning to listen again.To herself.To her heart.To silence.The wind pulled at her hair, sweeping curls across her cheek. She closed her eyes—one breath at a time.Some days, healing felt like a victory.Other days—like climbing a hill barefoot.Today… was somewhere in between.“Lilian.”Her eyes opened.Jack Macon stood a few feet away.The man wasn’t loud—not

Chapter: Chapter 150The city didn’t wake up gently the next morning. It rose to chaos—buzzing phones, screaming headlines, news presenters breathing into microphones like preachers of disaster.“Explosion in Industrial District—Three Suspects Dead, One Critical!”“Corporate Scandal: Rita Adibo Confirmed Deceased—Connection to Chris Newton Under Investigation.”“Massive Conspiracy Unraveled—Love Affair, Betrayal, Blood Trails.”Every media house feasted.But for the people at the center, it wasn’t news. It was heavy. It was personal.*********Chris Newton sat alone in a silent interrogation room.His once immaculate white shirt was crumpled, his sleeves rolled up, his expensive wristwatch replaced with cold metal cuffs. His hair—a signature slicked-back style—now fell messily across his forehead. He stared blankly at the two-way mirror, eyes swollen and red.It had taken less than twelve hours for everything to crumble.Detective Morrow entered, slow and emotionless. He dropped a file onto the steel tabl

Chapter: Chapter 149The air tasted like fear.The old underground warehouse—once Darcy’s secret hideout—smelled of rust, fuel, and damp concrete. Concrete pillars towered like silent witnesses, and broken crates lay everywhere, remnants of something darker that once lived there. A baby-blue light flickered from a half-dead fluorescent bulb overhead, casting long haunted shadows that danced across the floor.Rita stood at the center of it all.Her hair, once immaculate and styled to perfection, now clung to her forehead in sweat. Her makeup—smudged, streaked, defeated—betrayed that the confident woman who engineered lives from behind screens and whispers… was now cornered, exposed. Her hands trembled, yet her chin remained raised, defiant.Behind her, stacked unevenly like a careless grave, were metal containers stenciled with faded warnings:HIGH EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL – PROPERTY OF DARCY INDUSTRIES.Explosives. Enough to turn this entire building—and half the surrounding street—into smoke.Kelvin, Lilian, a

Chapter: Chapter 148A metallic clang echoed across the chamber as the vault fully locked into place. The scent of cold steel and seawater settled into the air—sharp, metallic, and cruel.Jack stepped forward.He had seen death before, chased monsters across alleyways and penthouses…But nothing in twenty years of police work prepared him for this.The cavern opened wider beneath them—a cathedral of syndicate power, its heart beating with flickering screens and vault-like chambers.This was Darcy’s endgame.Even dead, he ruled.Rita straightened despite her handcuffs—her lips curling.“You all thought Darcy ran a gang,” she said softly.“No. He built a marketplace. Information. Women. Power. And Lilian… is the most expensive asset yet.”Kelvin’s fists clenched.“You’re insane.”“No,” Rita whispered, “I’m inevitable.”*********Metal grates extended, forming a walkway above the black water, leading toward the glass cell where Lilian hung suspended in drugged stillness.Jack forced himself forward, bullet

Chapter: Chapter 147Silence.Not true silence—more like the ringing void that exists only after a world ends. When Lilian opened her eyes, all she saw was white at first, as if the universe had been erased and was still deciding whether to put her back.Then the white faded.Reality returned as smoke, debris, and blood.She was lying on the marble floor of the Newton Foundation lobby. But the lobby was no longer a lobby—it was a graveyard. Glass panels hung like torn wings, shattered furniture lay scattered, and a fire alarm shrieked through the haze like an animal in pain.Bodies moved. Some crawled. Some didn’t.Lilian tried to sit up but her head pounded like a war drum. She touched her temple and came away with red.Memory crashed back—the charity gala, Chris showing up unexpectedly, the confrontation, Rita’s cold smile,and her hand—pressing that small black detonator device.And everything went white.Lilian staggered to her knees.“Help…” she croaked—but her throat was raw, broken.A shape moved

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: Where She Chose to StandHer fists clenched around the container of juice as if it was the only thing that was holding her in place, Bella sat perfectly still after the ring of the bell signifying the start of lunch.“You should probably go out there and sit with them," Joy said quietly. It had always been Joy who had acted as the mediator between the three of them, tempering her words and delivering them gently. “People are starting to look," she said.Bella did not raise her head. “I won't leave you.”"Just that. She would never leave us to go and sit with the hybrids," Eve shrugged and scoffed."I didn't mean that," Joy stopped. "It's just that you're one of them now, Bella."Bella suddenly raised her head. "No, I'm not."Joy winced slightly. “You are. Maybe not in your heart, but everyone can feel it. Your presence—it’s different. Stronger. Intimidating.”Bella blinked. “I intimidate you?”“No—no,” Joy rushed to clarify. “Not like that. It’s just… the aura. All Hybrids have it. And now you do too. “Becaus

Chapter: Want and WoundBella had no idea the pain could be so loud, yet so silent inside the chest.The self-control she had managed to keep throughout the day finally crumbled when she threw herself onto her bed.Her body was racked with sobs, hard and fast, drenching the pillow. The same vicious thought kept racing through her brain, burning her chest and hurting her throat.Dave had chosen Serena.That was how it felt. Not logically—emotion was rarely logical—but viscerally. Instinctively. Like a wound that recognized itself.Serena had always been there. Before Bella. During his absences. In the Palace. In his past. And worse—she hadn’t just been a friend. She had been a lover once. A fact that now felt like salt pressed deliberately into an open cut.Only hours ago, Bella had woken wrapped in Dave’s arms, floating somewhere between dream and reality, heart full and foolishly certain. Now she felt hollowed out, scraped raw from the inside.She cried until her eyes burned.Her mother, Linda, knocked gent

Chapter: Fault LinesLunch was usually loud—voices overlapping, laughter spilling, trays clattering—but the moment Bella took her seat at the Hybrids’ table, an unnatural stillness crept in.Joy and Eve sat beside her, shoulders tense, eyes alert. This was the first time they’d joined the table while Serena was present.Bella felt it immediately.A longtime friend of Dave’s, Serena, sat across from them with impeccable posture and a chin that was ever so slightly uplifted. Her gaze evaluated Alice and Nova in a way that was in no way accidental. It was not quite hostile. This was an appraisal. Much like calculating the weight of prey.Bella looked away and forced herself to breathe steadily.“You're only imagining things,” she told herself. “Not everyone is out to hurt you.”Dave's caring hand slid into hers. Soft and loving, with every appearance of intimacy, he leaned in towards her, moved her hair aside, and nuzzled his lips into the side of her neck. Bella automatically relaxed and turned her head to

Chapter: Heightened DesireSeeing Agnes leaning over Marcus at the other end of the cafeteria made Bella roll her eyes.Others inhaled attention rather than just receiving it.With a thud, Bella sat down beside her friends and slid her tray forward as if the world could not possibly interrupt her."That was disturbing and impressive at the same time," Eve muttered as she picked at her food. "Mostly unsettling."“Just pretend they don't exist,” Joy leaned in and whispered. “They thrive on reactions.”Across the table, Morgan caught Bella’s gaze and gave her a rueful smile—an unspoken you survived. She returned it, grateful for the quiet support.School passed without incident, which felt like a small miracle. No public confrontations. No territorial growls from Marcus. No whispered rumors drifting too close.Bella arrived at the conclusion that she enjoyed quiet days.By the time nighttime approached, she was huddled up in her bed, staring fixedly at the ceiling with her phone relaxed in her grasp.Maybe tonight

Chapter: The Weight of Unfinished BondsBella noticed Dave Stark’s name before she even registered the vibration of her phone.Her heart leapt, light and reckless, the way it always did when his name appeared. She’d saved his contact with a simple white heart—nothing dramatic, nothing loud. Just quiet certainty.She fixed her gaze on the screen for a moment too long and then looked up at Morgan, who stood next to the large, charcoal-gray Aurex VX that was parked under the bright floodlights outside the estate hall.“Are you sure you want to leave already?” Bella asked, trying to sound casual. “You could stay longer. Everyone’s still… enjoying themselves.”Morgan smiled faintly, a smile that never quite reached his eyes. “Parties aren’t really my scene. I’ll be much happier once I’m out of this place," he said."Yes," she nodded, understanding more than she was saying. It had been a rough night, with too many people watching and too many things left unsaid. Bella quickly sent a message to Sandra and Nova, letting them know M

Chapter: Under MercyAll eyes in the room turned to Bella at the same time.The music pulsed harder, the bass thundering through the crowded room, but it was as if the world itself had shrunk down to a solitary, choking focus. Warmth slithered up her back. The aroma of alcohol, perspiration, and wolf musk filled the air.But then came the sound of footsteps from a few feet away, the approaching figure being none other thanAlpha Marcus.Her former mate.He lifted his glass in a mocking salute, eyes glinting silver beneath the hanging lights. "Why don't we make this interesting?" he drawled, his voice carrying effortlessly over the noise. "Why don't we make it just you and me?"Bella's heart slammed against her ribs.He leaned in closer.Instinct yelled at her to back off, but as she turned to do so, her back collided with solid bodies behind. Too many. Too close. It was as if the room itself had conspired to cage her in.Her pulse skyrocketed.Did he mind-link them?The space suddenly felt too tight. Too
