Men Are Prada Shoes
Alina Voss learned her lesson the hard way. Her ex-boyfriend stole her money, ruined her name, and left her with nothing but an empty account. She decided she would never be anyone’s victim again. So she flipped the script. Now she dates powerful, well-connected men, not for love, but for what they can do for her career and social life. She takes what she needs and walks away before feelings ever enter the picture. It’s clean. It’s smart. And it always works.Until Vincent Sterling.Billionaire. Self-made. And entirely too perceptive for his own good. Vincent isn’t the kind of man who gets chosen, he does the choosing. So when Alina turns her carefully rehearsed charm on him, he doesn’t fall. He watches. And then he plays along. What Alina believes is her most effortless con is, in fact, her most dangerous one, because Vincent isn’t a stepping stone. He’s a mirror. For the first time, someone is reflecting her own tactics back at her, and worse, she’s starting to feel things she buried a long time ago.

Chapter: CHAPTER 76VINCENTMy eyes followed the medical staff in panic as she rushed past us with the pint of blood. “What’s going on?” I blurted out, turning to Jonah. “Why is she rushing in there with blood like that? What is happening?”“Calm down, Vincent.”David wiped his face with both hands before slowly rising to his feet. He turned towards us, his expression dark and grim as his gaze shifted from Jonah to me. The anger in his eyes was unmistakable, and the way he clenched his jaw made it clear that whatever he had to say was not going to be pleasant.“Are you even sorry that she got stabbed?” he growled, taking a step towards me.Jonah immediately moved in front of me, blocking his path before he could get any closer.“If you don’t get out of my way, I’m going to slam my fist into your jaw so hard that you’ll need a replacement,” David warned, glaring at Jonah.“I need both of you to calm the fuck down,” Jonah snapped. “Alina doesn’t need either of you fighting right now, not when she’s in ther

Chapter: CHAPTER 75VINCENTUnable to sleep and with work piling up, I reached for the document on the left side of the table and opened it. I might as well review the project since sleep seemed determined to elude me tonight.Halfway through the document, I felt an inexplicable urge to call Alina. I ignored it at first, forcing my attention back to the pages in my hand. However, less than ten seconds after picking up the document again, my gaze drifted towards my cellphone.Fuck.With a sigh, I reached for my phone, ready to call her. But the moment I glanced at the screen and saw that it was past three in the morning, I changed my mind. As much as I wanted to hear her voice, waking her up at this hour isn’t right.I could always stop by her place in the morning. Her pop-up event was tomorrow, and she needed all the rest she could get before the busy day ahead.Setting the phone facedown on the desk, I turned my attention back to the file and my MacBook, determined to get some work done.An hour later,

Chapter: CHAPTER 74ALINAI couldn’t, for the life of me, fall asleep.Thousands of thoughts raced through my head, and the sudden nervousness over tomorrow’s pop-up wasn’t helping. Despite being a hundred percent ready, I couldn’t seem to shake off the anxiety creeping up on me.The worst part? The one man I would normally run to whenever I needed to talk through my fears was currently one of the reasons I was so anxious. So much for finding comfort in him.With a frustrated sigh, I pushed the covers aside and got out of bed. I walked out onto the balcony, hoping a little fresh air would help calm the storm of thoughts raging inside my head.It didn’t.Thirty minutes later, I was still standing outside, and if anything, my mind felt even more crowded than before. I rested my hands on the railing and stared into the quiet night, wondering why I was suddenly acting like I had never done this before. So why was I panicking?Apparently, my brain had decided that sleep was overrated and worrying was a much

Chapter: CHAPTER 73VINCENTRubbing my jaw in frustration, I climbed back into the car and slammed the door shut behind me.“What the hell happened between her and Elena?”Jonah glanced at me briefly through the rear-view mirror before pulling out of the driveway. “I’m not entirely sure what they discussed, but I didn’t intervene because Ms. Voss seemed to have everything under control.”“I don’t give a damn whether she has it under control or not,” I snapped, my fingers tightening against my thigh. “In the future, if she looks uncomfortable around anyone, I want you to fucking intervene. Don’t stand there watching and wait until she gets so frustrated that she breaks a goddamn glass with her bare hands before you decide to do something.”“Yes, boss.”“Take me to Elena’s house.”Jonah nodded, and silence settled over the car as we drove through the streets. I turned towards the window, watching the passing buildings without paying much attention to them.After a few minutes, Jonah spoke again.“I think w

Chapter: CHAPTER 72VINCENTHer breath caught, but she didn’t look away.Slowly, I leaned closer, brushing my lips over hers without quite kissing her. My gaze slipped past her shoulder, settling on David.The bastard stood frozen, his face flushed and his jaw so tightly clenched that I could practically see the muscles twitching beneath his skin.The sight brought a slow, satisfied smirk to my face.That’s right. Keep watching.Then I finally captured Alina’s lower lip between mine, sucking gently before teasing it with my teeth.For someone who had been threatening to tear me apart seconds ago, Alina seemed to have forgotten what she wanted to say.Her hands, which had been resting against my chest, slowly travelled upwards until they circled my neck. She tugged me closer, pulling my head down as she rose slightly on her toes to meet my mouth.My fingers tightened around her waist, drawing her closer as I explored the familiar curves of her body. Her tiny waist fit beneath my hands, a striking contrast

Chapter: CHAPTER 71VINCENTWatching her pull away from my hold, only to walk straight into another man’s arms, made me see fucking red.It was the kind of rage that made my blood boil and my fingers itch to do something reckless.Hell, the anger I felt right now didn’t even compare to what I had felt when that bastard shoved Vera in high school. Back then, I had nearly beaten the guy to a pulp for daring to lay a hand on her. But this?This was different.This was Alina willingly walking into another man’s arms, allowing him to hold her as though he had every right to touch her.And the worst part?She looked comfortable there.My jaw tightened so hard I felt a dull ache shoot through it, and I curled my fingers into fists at my sides.“I think he likes her,” Jonah muttered from the driver’s seat, glancing at me through the rear-view mirror.I slowly turned my head towards him. “Do you want to shut the fuck up before I shut it for you?”He raised his brows, looking entirely too amused for a man who valu

Married To My Sister’s Man: Becoming Strangers Again
Eudora Dawson has always lived in the shadow of her sister, Camellia, unseen, misunderstood, and never truly accepted in her own home.
When Camellia is left paralyzed after a sudden car accident, Eudora becomes the one everyone blames. No one listened to her. Not her family. Not even Desmond Nelson, the man her sister is engaged to and the boy she once saved as a child.
After Camellia’s sudden disappearance, Desmond forces Eudora into a marriage that is not built on love, but punishment. To him, she is the reason everything fell apart. To her family, she is a burden they are willing to sacrifice. And in a house where she has never truly belonged, Eudora learned to survive by enduring in silence.
But silence cannot protect her forever.
On the anniversary of Camellia’s disappearance, one night changes everything between Eudora and Desmond but when Camellia suddenly returns alive, Eudora is pushed out of Desmond’s life without hesitation, handed divorce papers, and forced to leave the only place she has ever known.
Pregnant, alone, and with nowhere to turn, she disappears without a trace.
Five years later, Eudora returns as someone unrecognisable. No longer the girl they once blamed, she is now a high profile painter with a life built far away from the ruins of her past.
But the past is not finished with her.
Because Desmond is searching for her.
And the truth about that accident is beginning to surface.

Chapter: CHAPTER 102DESMONDThe look on her face screams… what am I supposed to do with that information?I guess me divorcing Camellia is really not any of her business. Clearing my throat, I moved away from her. “You think I can have dinner with Ariel?”She stopped stroking the brush on the canvas and arched a brow to look at me.“I mean with you of course.” I blurted out. “I wouldn’t dream of doing it without you.”“You should leave.” She breathed out, her attention going back to the artwork. “I need to get back to this painting and I don’t want anyone seeing a glimpse of the fall collection.”I bet my ass Orion is going to see it, but I don’t think that is something she would want to hear me say. I will only come off as a jealous jerk. “Alright then. I’ll let you get back to your painting. Let me know when you are ready to sue my parents for the shares.”All I got in response was the slow nodding of her head. Taking that as my cue to leave, I turned and walked away.********************************I

Chapter: CHAPTER 101EUDORAWhen I walked into the rental space for my New York studio this morning, the last person I expected to see was Desmond.The studio sat at the end of a quiet street, tucked away from the city’s endless noise. It wasn’t much, just a large open space with tall windows, paint-stained floors, and the faint scent of acrylic and turpentine lingering in the air.Desmond was seated on the bench outside the entrance, scrolling absentmindedly through his phone. The moment my shadow fell over him, he looked up.Surprise flashed across his face before his lips slowly curved into a smile.“There you are.”I stared at him for a moment, unable to hide my confusion.“What are you doing here?”He slipped his phone into his pocket and stood up.Reaching into my bag, I pulled out my keys and unlocked the door before stepping inside the studio.“I’ve been waiting almost an hour,” he said as he followed after me.He barely made it two steps before one of my security guards stepped into his path, blo

Chapter: CHAPTER 100DESMONDPulling over in front of my parents’ residence, I cut off the engine and sat in the car for a moment, mulling over my decisions.I stepped out of the car and stretched my shoulders after the long drive. One of the security guards immediately hurried over. Without saying much, I tossed him the keys.“Park it properly,” I said.“Yes, sir.”I adjusted the cuffs of my shirt before making my way toward the entrance.The house was unusually quiet except for the faint sound of cutlery coming from the dining room. Following the noise, I walked in to find my parents seated across from each other, having dinner.Walking over to my mother, I leaned down and pressed a kiss to her cheek before pulling out the chair beside her.“There is my favorite son,” she said immediately, reaching for my hand.I raised a brow. “I’m your only son.”“Which is why you should visit more often.”There it is.A servant moved toward the table to prepare another place setting, but I raised my hand to stop him.

Chapter: CHAPTER 99ORION Standing beside the floor-to-ceiling glass partition, I silently watched the man lying in the hospital bed.His body was almost completely swallowed by crisp white sheets.Clear tubes snaked across his chest while wires connected him to a collection of machines that filled the room. The ventilator hissed softly with every assisted breath, a reminder that, despite everything, he was still alive.Barely.Mrs. Robertson stood beside me, both hands pressed against the glass as tears welled in her eyes.“Thank you so much, Mr. Blackmoor,” she said quietly. “I don’t know how we’ll ever repay you.”I kept my eyes on the man inside the room.“Your husband was a good man,” I replied. “He and my father shared a great deal of mutual respect. They worked together for years, and my father trusted him.”My gaze lingered on the unconscious figure.“When I heard he’d suddenly sold all his shares before ending up in a suspicious accident, I knew something wasn’t right.”Nothing about this makes

Chapter: CHAPTER 98DESMOND“Do you have anything on the person I asked you to investigate, Victor?” I asked, rolling the cue stick between my fingers.He’s taking much longer than usual. That alone tells me this isn’t an easy search.“I managed to track down the police officer who was originally assigned to the case,” Victor replied. “But instead of investigating it, he advised Mrs. Grey to let the matter go and stop pursuing it.”My hand froze halfway through the shot.The cue ball remained untouched as I slowly straightened, narrowing my eyes.“He just… walked away from the case?” I asked, making sure I heard him correctly.“Pretty much.”I finally leaned forward again and struck the cue ball. It rolled across the green felt, knocking another ball into the corner pocket with a satisfying clack.“What about the accident scene?” I asked, watching the remaining balls settle into place. “Any photographs? Reports? Physical evidence? Anything that could still point us in the right direction?”Victor release

Chapter: CHAPTER 97ORIONWhat are you doing about the press?” Mum demanded the moment she stormed into the discussion I was having with Angel and Cartier.Sasha stepped in a second later, closing the door quietly before taking her place beside Mum.Cartier slowly pushed back his chair and rose to his feet. Without saying a word, he began gathering the files spread across the conference table, clearly preparing to excuse himself and give us privacy.“Sit.”This meeting isn’t ending because my mother decided to barge into my office and throw one of her tantrums.Cartier hesitated for only a second before quietly lowering himself back into his chair, placing the files where they had been.“You haven’t answered my question, Orion,” Mum snapped impatiently. “What exactly are you planning to do about this? Every newspaper is tearing this company apart.”I leaned back in my chair, studying her.“And I’m supposed to discuss that in front of someone who isn’t part of this meeting? A stranger?”My gaze shifted br

Chapter: EPILOGUE ARIA“I never knew what it meant, what it truly meant to feel for someone. I didn’t know peace, or safety, or joy. My brother took those things from me. I spent years thinking cruelty was loyalty. But… he took you from me before I even had the chance to know you.”Lilia’s eyes shimmered.Ash looked at her. “I’ll help you kill him. Darius. I’m in.”Everyone looked at him in shock.Ash nodded slowly. “I’ve hated him for years. He’s made my life a living hell. He turned me into someone I don’t recognize. And the truth is… there’s only one person who can kill him.”Lucian narrowed his eyes. “Who?”“Killian,” Ash said. “He’s the only one Darius doesn’t suspect. The only one he won’t see coming.”Kael looked doubtful. “Even if Killian kills him, the Bloodfang elders will come for him. They work with Darius.”Not surprising. It was no wonder Lucian caged them.“After we use them to capture Killian, we can lock him up,” Ash said. “By then, the deed would be done. Let them imprison him for kil

Chapter: CHAPTER 152ARIAHe didn’t stop there.“…glowing like fresh pastries out of the oven.”Lucian cleared his throat, but I swore his lip twitched like he was trying not to smile.Seriously. I sat down, pretending I hadn’t almost been knotted to death two hours ago. “We’re not late.”“You’re not on time either,” Clara added, raising her brows with a far too innocent tone. “Although I do support omega satisfaction, Luna... I can smell yours all the way from here.”My mouth dropped open. Goddess help me. What’s worse? Clara calling me Luna, or her attaching my name to those words?Lucian grunted low beside me, ears tinged pink.Aaron groaned. “Goddess, can we not talk about smells right now? I just had breakfast.”“Oh, come on,” Tobias waved a hand, overly dramatic. “The sounds, Aaron. Did anyone else hear the wall-thumping opera from the East Wing last night? I thought the Moon Goddess herself had descended.”Lilia burst into laughter. “I thought someone was being murdered.”“I did hear something,” Ka

Chapter: CHAPTER 151ARIAThat place he kissed… I knew he wanted to place his mark there.“Do it,” I whispered, breathless. “Mark me, Lucian.”A deep growl rumbled from his chest, vibrating against my skin. His canines lengthened, grazing my neck, and then… he sank them in. The pain was sharp but brief, swallowed by the overwhelming wave of heat that followed. My body arched into his as I rolled off the cliff in a free fall. Pleasure burst through me, raw and all-consuming. I could feel it… his scent, his power, his claim, binding itself to my soul. My mouth was slack open and I couldn't register what he was doing.I shook uncontrollably, biting my lips hard as warm juices gushed out of me, drenching Lucian's cock.Lucian groaned low, almost brokenly. He was still moving inside me, slowly. “You’re mine now.”And I wanted him just as much.Before the moment could fade, I turned his face to me and kissed him hard, my teeth grazing his lower lip. His neck, slick with sweat, was exposed to me… and instinct to

Chapter: CHAPTER 150LUCIAN Aria didn’t say anything.I opened my eyes to look at her… her eyes were red, filled with tears… and helpless lust. I had never seen her this way, and it sparked desire in me.“All right, love, I’ll give you what you want.”Her cries and moans of pleasure were music to my ears.“We’ve missed this,” Wulf said with a wolfish grin, his voice thick with heat.I groaned, my cock jerking for the umpteenth time before we spilled our seed against her warm clit. I heaved, pulling away before we could knot. Then I gently placed her legs down.“Lucian!” Aria growled. I knew it was her wolf speaking through her. Right now, her eyes were white with uncontrollable heat. “I need your babies!”I chuckled, amused by her words. “I know, baby. But the moment we knot, all of this will be over. I need to pleasure you, my love. I need to properly mate you, and place my mark on you.”My little omega—except, not an omega anymore—sighed. Her eyes softened. “Sorry, Whitee is a bit impatient.”“As is Wu

Chapter: CHAPTER 149ARIA“It was a unanimous agreement. You do know the Phantom Order, right? Because whoever told you that story should have told you how it works.”“No. No one did.” My mind raced through many scenarios. “What went wrong?”“Helene's death was one of the reasons I left the Phantom Order. It was the last straw. I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to be brutal for the sake of keeping the pack—both my father's and mine. You know, after he annihilated your pack, he introduced me to a pack he had been secretly grooming… I don't know much about it.”“Then where did he get the army to…”Lucian raised a hand to my lips. “Shh… Let's fuck and talk later. Kael and Lilia will be there. Once I’m done with you.” He grinned.And suddenly, I saw him… really saw him smile. This was the first time I'd seen Lucian smile happily. His lips widened to his eyes, causing them to crinkle at the sides.He was… beautiful. Not as the cold-blooded alpha I imagined or the heartless enemy I cursed in the dark, but

Chapter: CHAPTER 148ARIA My eyes fluttered open. “What a journey,” Denera murmured, steadying me as I sat up. I offered her a shaky smile, but it faded almost immediately as my gaze shifted to Kael. He was standing quietly, his expression unreadable. “I’m sorry, Kael,” I said softly. “Don’t be,” he replied, voice calm but distant. “It wasn’t your fault. It wasn’t Lucian’s either.” “I saw them... I saw my parents slaughtered.” My voice broke despite my best efforts to stay composed. The image wouldn't leave my head. “Lucian tried to shield me... before everything went downhill.” “He was afraid, Al,” Kael said gently. “Terrified. He thought you didn’t hear him. But you needed to hear the pain in his voice.” I looked down, my hands trembling. “Then why didn’t he warn us? Why didn’t he say anything?” “Because I didn’t have time to,” a familiar voice cut in. I turned. Lucian stood in the doorway, his posture rigid, but his face was softer than before. There were shadows in his eyes, but something h
