Renata never imagined her entire academic future would collapse overnight. Her scholarship had been revoked, expulsion was looming over her, and her little sister, Alea, needed a fortune to survive a rare illness. Just when Renata thought she had nowhere left to turn, Dominic Sinclair appeared—a young professor known for being the coldest and most powerful figure on campus—offering a proposal she could not escape. “Become my secret girl. You don’t need to be smart. Just be beautiful, obedient, and available whenever I want you. Your grades and living expenses will be taken care of.” Renata knew it was madness. Immoral. Dangerous. But for Alea—for her sister’s life, for her own future—she walked into Dominic’s office at exactly three in the afternoon. Wearing a mini skirt. And the moment that door closed behind her, Renata’s life changed forever.

Warning. 21+ Emely married Alexander Winchester—the billionaire who chose her not out of love, but because a family arrangement demanded it. For an entire year, she tried to build a warm home and a future for them, yet all she ever received was his icy indifference and a gaze that reminded her she would never be enough. When Emely failed to get pregnant, Alexander made a devastating choice: he hired another woman to carry his male heir. Emely agreed, clinging to the hope that saving their marriage was still possible… even if their marriage had never been built on love to begin with. But fate had plans neither of them could control. The surrogate became pregnant and so did Emely. When the surrogate delivered a son while Emely gave birth to a daughter, her status in the Winchester family collapsed instantly. Overnight, she became the unwanted wife, the mother who didn’t matter, the woman who had failed to produce the heir they valued above all else. Everyone expected her to break. Instead… Emely rose. She returned to work, rebuilt herself piece by piece, and shone brighter than ever—catching the eye of the one man no one saw coming: Steven Hale, Alexander’s most ruthless business rival. A man who saw Emely’s worth from the very beginning. A man who was willing to fight for her. And just when Alexander finally realized that the woman he’d neglected was the only one he could never live without—Emely was no longer standing alone. Now only one question remains: Will Emely return to the man who shattered her into pieces… or choose the one who was ready to protect her from the very start?
