COMING ALIVE
“I want nothing to do wi…” she swallowed hard as he turned to her. The heated look in his eyes was enough to make her resolve fly out of the window.

Never Coming Back
On my wedding day, my fiancé and my younger sister Rachel were caught doing the dirty in the private lounge.
I immediately became a laughing stock, until my childhood friend Jason Law publicly proposed to me, defending my honor.
After we got married, he was the perfect husband… except for his performance in the bedroom. It was like his heart was never in it.
I only managed to get pregnant after going for IVF this year. After that, he became even more protective of me.
I once believed he was my sanctuary… until I overheard his conversation with his friend.
“You’re ruthless, Jason. Nina’s so good to you. How could you swap out her egg with Rachel’s just because Rachel is too afraid of the pain to give birth?
“The baby’s due in two months. What do you plan to do then?”
Jason was silent for a bit, then he sighed. “I’ll give Rachel the baby once it’s born. It’s one of her greatest wishes, after all.
“As for Nina, I’ll tell her the baby died.
“I’ll make it up to her by staying with her for the rest of her life.”
So that was how it was. He only protected me so gently for her sake.
I turned around and immediately made a surgery appointment.
I was throwing away this filthy baby… and this false marriage.
Coming Out of the Deep
He straddled me, his hips swirling in slow, maddening circles. His body was right there, pressing into mine, and I couldn’t escape it; I didn’t want to. His hands found mine and guided them to his chest, and when my palms touched his warm skin, I was gone.
My pulse was a blur of frantic beats pounding in my ears, drowning out the crowd's cheers and whistles. With his face inches from mine, Alec leaned in. His breath ghosted over my lips, his smile, cocky, knowing, playful, and somehow tender all at once.
“You okay there?” he asked with an amused tone, and I opened my mouth, desperate to say something—anything—but nothing came out. My throat was dry, my skin was on fire and my mind was completely blank.
All I could do was stare at him, completely mesmerized by how his body moved against mine and that wicked smirk on his lips. Before I knew it, heat pooled low in my belly, spreading downward, and I instinctively clenched my thighs together to stop the throbbing that ignited between my legs, but it was too late as I dampened the soft leather.

[Thank you for letting me have my own baby.]

Jake immediately called me to yell at me.
“She’s a widow and is living alone. All she wants is to have a baby to keep her company and give her life a little more cheer. How could you not show her even this bit of pity?
“You know that Henry is my friend. It’s only right for me to take care of his wife after he died! This is called friendship, don’t you understand?!”

"If I knew I would lose all of it, I would have let you go from the beginning."
Those were the last words Nadine said before collapsing from falling down the stairs.
"If you had never been in my life, you wouldn't have lost it all."
And the last thing she remembered was the cold face of her husband, who was disgusted to see her. Nadine thought it was the end of her life. And when she opened her eyes hell would await her.
"Wait.. Why is it so comfortable in hell? And why is it similar to my room?"
When Nadine opened her eyes she didn't feel any pain in her head and she was still wearing her nightdress. The sound of her mobile phone alarm made her startled. And what surprised her most, she found out the date on her phone. She returned three years ago. More precisely, one day before her wedding day with her husband. In disbelief, he circled her house, asking the servant what date it was. But they have the same answer.
"God... Must be joking! Ha ha ha... For all day...."
She laughed frantically.
"If You want me to pay for my sin, choose before I've forced him to marry me."
She bit her nail nervously and began to think.
"I separated him from his lover once to marry me. Make an innocent man become a cheater and a despicable husband. Kill our unborn baby to get his attention. And end my life in misery. Now I have a second chance. I have to fix everything. Everything.... Maybe he and my unborn baby will forgive me and I won't die young."
How can Nadine fix this mess? Can she get her husband's forgiveness? Or will she end up losing everything like before?
Stepped On Alpha's Age
Sure. G
"They're coming, Benedicta. Grab all your stuff right now!"
One second, I snapped my head around at the panicked Paul who clutched a towel around his waist. But when I looked back, the creature was gone. Shocked by the sudden disappearance, my eyes darted around in search of nothing.
"Did you hear what I fucking said? Gather your stuff and let's go!"
"Did you-did you see that?" I pointed at the empty window oozing in chilling air.
As the breeze got stronger, so did my confusion.
"Wake the hell up, Beni," Paul yelled, startling me off my trance. "What is wrong with you?"
Without saying a word to Paul, I followed him like a doll as he led me out of the room through a secret passage.
"Find them. They haven't gone far." That deep scratchy voice penetrated the walls. "Search the bushes. As ordered, bring her alive."
