Anyone Can Be Anything

“She signed up to carry his child and not steal his heart.” Diana Wood agrees to become a surrogate for reclusive, powerful, emotionally distant Billionaire Theodore Smith. It's meant to be strictly business: Twelve months—a discreet legal process. No attachment. Confidential. Life-changing compensation, enough to save her sister’s life. But twelve months is a long time to live in someone else's world, especially when walls come down, unexpected laughter, shared vulnerabilities, and the heart gets involved. Love was never part of the deal, and they both question everything. Was it ever just an agreement or the beginning of something real? What happens when a contract ends but love is just beginning? Will they be able to face what neither of them planned for?

It was no secret that Ryker Frost would burn the world for one person…his little sister, Summer. So when their rapacious father sold her off to Zarek Lachlan…a sadistic billionaire rumored to have buried his brides before dawn…Ryker did what no sane man would dare. He took her place. Now bound in a marriage meant to be a death sentence, Ryker finds himself face to face with a monster… one who watches him like prey instead of a sacrifice. Two S-class Alphas. Two predators forced into one cage. Ryker—twenty-four, F1 champion, tech prodigy, and a schemer to the bone. Zarek—twenty-eight, a man wrapped in blood and secrets. This was never meant to work. Because when two dragons meet, one doesn’t survive. On their wedding night, Ryker smirked victoriously. “Bet you didn’t see this coming.” Zarek only smiled. And suddenly… it didn’t feel like Ryker was the one in control. [Alternate title: married to my sister's fiancé]

Pagkagising ni Desiree, wala ni isang saplot sa katawan niya. Ngunit higit pa sa pagkabigla niya ay ang taong natutulog sa tabi niya—ang lalaking pinakaayaw niya sa lahat. Mas lalo pa siyang nabahala dahil ramdam pa rin niya ang init ng gabing iyon na ayaw man niyang aminin, ay tumatak sa isip niya. "Ano, gusto mong ituloy ito o gusto mong ibaon na lang sa limot at magpanggap na walang nangyari?" "Ang ibig mong sabihin, gusto mong akuin kitang responsibilidad ko dahil nagtalik tayo?" malamig na tanong ng lalaki, sabay taas ng kilay. Ang gwapo nitong mukha ay may halong pang-aasar na lalong nagpa-init ng ulo ni Desiree. Halos gusto na niyang sugurin at kalmutin ito. Halos sumabog sa inis si Desiree. Hindi man lang niya napag-isipan nang gano’n kalalim ang nangyari kagabi. "Hindi!" Sigaw niya, sabay irap at iwas ng tingin. "Isang beses lang iyon, wala nang dapat pag-usapan pa. Wala akong pakialam." Nagkibit-balikat siya at malamig na nagsabi, "Mas mabuti pang kalimutan na lang natin pareho ang lahat. Walang nasaktan, walang talo." Hindi naman siya magpapatali sa isang lalaki kahit pa... napakahusay nito sa kama. "Kung gano’n, ayos," sagot ni Terrence habang nag-uunat at naglakad palabas ng kwarto na parang walang nangyari. Ngunit bago siya tuluyang lumabas, lumingon pa ito at mayabang na nagsabi, "Sana lang hindi mo ipagmalaki kahit kanino na nakuha mo ako."

Raina: Ever since I came of age and got my wolf, I became the Whitecrest Pack’s outcast– the fat girl who was constantly bullied and despised by her own pack. I was mocked, humiliated and used by the very Alpha who was supposed to protect me. With all hope lost, I resigned myself to my fate, but the moon goddess had other plans. During a hunting game gone wrong, I was found by Alpha Rowan Vesper, the feared and most powerful Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack. And he turned out to be my fated mate. I didn’t have any expectations. After all, I’m the fat girl no one wants. So I lowered my gaze and braced myself for the rejection I knew was coming. Instead, his words shattered everything I believed about myself… “You taste so delicious… I want to eat you whole,” Alpha Rowan growled, sending a shiver down my spine. No one had ever spoken to me like that before… his voice was laced with raw hunger that sent tingles rushing through me. It was new and it terrified me. Goddess, is this a dream? **** Rowan: I had given up on finding my mate. After all, my pack was still thriving without a Luna, so I didn’t think I needed one, until my father pushed me to attend hunting games being hosted by another pack hoping I would find my mate. I never planned to hunt. But fate placed the most irresistible prey in my path. She was timid, and something told me she was ready to run away from me at any chance she got, but goddess knows I had no intention of letting her go.

He does not believe in love. She does not believe in giving up. Debt. Empty stomach. A mattress on the floor. This was Elena Hart’s reality. A girl who had nothing but her education and an unshakeable belief in love. Then she met Dr. Adrian Cole. Brilliant. Cold. Untouchable. A man who stood in front of an entire class and declared that love did not exist. A man with locked doors and no photographs and eyes that saw everything but gave nothing back.

He married a woman who feels everything. And somewhere between the silence and the rules and the things neither of them will say out loud… Something is beginning to shift. What broke him? And can she survive finding out?

“Why did you accept the marriage?” Audrey asked, her fingers drumming impatiently on the table.  Lucas leaned back, his gaze drifting over Audrey as a lazy chuckle escaped his throat. “It's a contract.”  A bitter smile twisted Audrey's lips. “How many months do I have to pay off the debt?” Lucas’ eyes snapped up, his brows furrowing into a shock. He hadn't expected her to be this....bold and unapologetic. He thought she would cry and plead for mercy.  “Twenty million dollars,” he muttered. “A debt even your father can't pay?”    …………….
