Drama のウェブ小説 & Protective Secret Love ストーリー

For seven years, Tessa Marlowe lived as Roman Ashbourne’s secret wife, hidden from the powerful family that would never accept her. On the night he finally promised to introduce her to the world, he looked into her eyes and said the words that destroyed everything. “I have never met this woman.” Overnight, her marriage certificate belongs to her sister, her business is taken from her, her bank accounts are frozen, and every official record insists that Tessa Marlowe no longer legally exists. Yet the same man who erased her in public secretly pays her rent, protects her from unseen enemies, and still carries proof of a marriage he swears never happened. As Tessa fights to reclaim her name, she uncovers a conspiracy buried inside the Ashbourne family, one powerful enough to rewrite identities, erase lives, and silence anyone who learns the truth. If Roman truly betrayed her, why is he risking everything to keep her alive? And if he didn’t, who stole her life?

And when enemies threaten to take her away, Lorenzo is willing to burn down empires, betray allies, and kneel before the woman he once considered nothing more than a contract bride.

One kiss seen by the wrong eyes. Now Kim is torn between the man she comes home to and the future she’s only just daring to imagine, while Erik must decide whether love means fighting for her… or letting her go.
