A Fortune-telling Princess Chapter 1

Claire Blake, 23, works double shifts at a café to cover her mother's medical bills and her brilliant sister Clara's college tuition. Her life is a careful sacrifice - no room for dreams, only survival. Then she accidentally spills coffee on Damian Cole, billionaire CEO and the city's most eligible bachelor. Instead of anger, he's kind. Days later, his assistant calls with an impossible offer: pretend to be his girlfriend for six months. His family won't stop pressuring him to marry, and his manipulative ex-fiancée Caroline refuses to accept they're over. In exchange: $10,000 monthly, her mother's medical expenses covered, and a completion bonus that would transform her family's life. Claire knows it's crazy - she doesn't belong in his world of charity galas and high society. But the money would solve every problem. So she signs the contract and steps into a glittering world where everything feels like pretend. Except it doesn't stay pretend. Damian isn't the cold CEO she expected. He remembers her coffee order, values her opinions, treats her family with genuine warmth. His careful respect comes from protecting his sister from abuse - he's not controlling, he's considerate. As Claire navigates his world, the performance becomes real. When he kisses her, he confesses: "This stopped being fake for me weeks ago." But Caroline launches a media campaign suggesting their relationship is paid - uncomfortably close to the truth. With headlines dissecting Claire's background and questioning whether she "belongs," they must choose transparency over hiding. Can a love that started as a contract become real enough to survive the spotlight?

That sounds like the perfect foundation for a high-stakes, exclusive-worthy novel. Here’s a working concept: --- Title: Fated by Fire and Fortune Synopsis She was destined to be his queen—until betrayal burned their bond to ashes. Now, she returns, not as the woman who once loved him, but as the key to his greatest downfall… or his salvation. Alpha Kieran Blackwood is the ruthless ruler of the Bloodmoon Pack, a billionaire with power stretching beyond the supernatural world. Feared and respected, he’s never forgiven the woman who shattered his trust. Years ago, his fated mate Selene Vale disappeared the night before their coronation, leaving only blood and destruction in her wake. When he hunted for her, all he found was evidence of her betrayal. But Selene had her own secrets. Forced into exile by an unknown enemy, she survived in the shadows, training, waiting—until the moment she could reclaim what was stolen. Now, she’s back, not as the mate who once swore eternal love, but as the woman with the power to destroy everything Kieran has built. What neither of them expects is the fire still burning between them. Their past is a battlefield, but their future is a war. As a deadly enemy rises, Kieran and Selene must decide—will they fight together, or will their revenge consume them both?

My father found me too rebellious, so he gave me to Marco, tasking him with making a lady out of me. To the outside world, Macro was the ruthless boss to a Mafia empire, but to me, he was just a man with a perpetually stern face. I tried everything to defy him. I smashed his car. Then I swapped his PPT for the lowbrow stand-up he hated most. And he opened it during a company meeting. Yet, every rebellion ended the same. He cornered me, his massive frame dominating mine on the silk sheets of his king-sized bed, the polished oak of his desk, or the leather confines of the car's backseat. His hot skin against mine, his fingers tracing fire along my curves. He moved with a primal hunger that left me breathless. My body arched in unwilling ecstasy, in a dance of punishing pleasure, until my fight dissolved into moans, my will shattered under his relentless claim. I fell for him hard, convinced this was love, and he was the beacon of my dark world. But the truth shattered me: it was all a calculated game to tame me, to stop my war with my sister Karen. My guiding light went out, or maybe it never existed at all. So I became a good girl. I stopped fighting back. He thought he had me tamed, chained to his will. But in the end, I slipped free, leaving him alone with his shattered heart.
