Ava Skye

In my previous life, my brother Elliot Quinn's close female friend, Ava Sutton, told him she wanted to camp on the mountaintop and watch the stars. Wanting privacy, he took all the bodyguards from home with him. Unexpectedly, the rival whom Elliot had once humiliated took the opportunity to break into the house seeking revenge. My pregnant sister-in-law fought to protect me with everything she had, while my three-year-old nephew got hurt badly trying to save me. I called Elliot over and over, begging him to come home. Knowing that the situation at home was urgent, he had no choice but to leave Ava Sutton behind and rush back. Elliot's rival was captured, but from the mountaintop came terrible news. Ava had vanished after sending her last message. "I know your sister and wife have been waiting for me to die. Well, they got what they wanted." Elliot coldly deleted the message and told me not to overthink it. Afterward, Dad punished him, and he lost control of the family business. But after the corporate gala, while I was in the backyard, Elliot killed me mercilessly. His face was cold and cruel as he said, "You're the one who made me come back. That's why Ava died. Go and make amends to her!" When I open my eyes again, the front gate of the villa echoes with the voice of Elliot's rival.

“One life saved. One soul claimed.” “You belong to me now, little bird. You saved my life, and now I will spend mine claiming yours.” Cardiovascular nurse Ava Moreles thought saving a dying stranger was just another day at the hospital. She had no idea that pulling Dario Santos back from death’s door would seal her own fate. Dario Santos doesn’t just rule the underworld—he owns it. And now, he’s decided he owns her too. When he crashes her wedding with blood on his hands and possession in his eyes, Ava realizes the man she saved isn’t just dangerous—he’s obsessed. With her. Torn between the safe love she’s always known and the consuming fire of a man who would burn the world down for her, Ava must navigate a treacherous path where every choice could be her last. In Dario’s dark empire, love isn’t just dangerous—it’s deadly. But as the line between captive and willing participant begins to blur, Ava discovers the most terrifying truth of all: the monster she’s supposed to fear might be the only one who truly sees her soul. Will she surrender to the darkness that calls to her? Or will fighting for her freedom cost more than she’s willing to pay? Some obsessions are worth dying for. Others are worth killing for.

“What are you doing?” Chad hissed, his tone low and sharp “Playing the part,” Jasmine whispered back, patting his chest as if calming a restless dog. “Relax, Mr. Blackstone. You hired me for this, remember?” Jasmine turned her attention to Ava, her smile turning just a shade sharper. “Hi, I’m Jasmine. Chad’s fiancée.” *** Chad Blackstone is a self-made billionaire with a cold demeanor, his heart frozen after a devastating betrayal by the one woman he trusted—Ava Reeds. When Ava unexpectedly reappears, determined to rekindle their relationship, Chad devises a bold plan to show her he’s moved on and that's where she comes in—Jasmine Withers. A fiery, no-nonsense woman who’s nothing like the superficial socialites Chad is used to. What begins as a calculated business arrangement quickly spirals into a whirlwind of scandal, rivalry, and unexpected passion. In a game of love, revenge, and redemption, who will come out on top—and who will end up heartbroken?

Ava has always lived in the shadows quiet, unnoticed, and untouched. Her life as an omega in the powerful Mystic Shadow Pack is ruled by fear, survival, and a haunting past that refuses to let her go. She’s sworn to stay out of trouble, blend in, and never attract attention especially not from dominant, dangerous Alphas. But all that changes the night she meets Ian Dawson. Ian is the future Alpha ruthless, feared, and heartbreakingly gorgeous. He doesn’t do love. He doesn’t do second chances. And he never plays by the rules. Yet the moment his lips meet Ava’s, something shifts. In him. In her. In the matebond they never expected. What starts as a stolen kiss in the dark spirals into something uncontrollable. He thinks she’s just another girl for the night. She fears he’s the storm that will shatter her world. But fate has its own plans. Now, Ava must choose between protecting her heart… or surrendering it completely to a mate who may never be capable of love.

Some lessons aren't meant to be learned. They're meant to be survived. Ava Sterling thought her final year at Crestmore University would be simple: ace her classes, protect her scholarship, and stay out of trouble. But everything spirals when she walks into class and sees the man she slapped at a club the weekend before—now standing at the front of the room as her new professor. Dr. William Reid. Brilliant. Intense. Completely off-limits. Twice her age. And married. Worse? He hasn’t forgotten their first encounter… and he refuses her apology. Instead, he promises to make her fail. Desperate and reckless, Ava makes a bold offer—herself. And shockingly, he doesn’t refuse. What should have been a one-time mistake on his desk becomes a dark, consuming arrangement. Now, they’re entangled in a web of lust, lies, and obsession. Careers are on the line. Reputations. Lives. Because in the end, it’s not just Ava’s grades at risk— it’s her heart.

I suffer from extreme mental illness. My sister, Ava Monroe, became a facial model to earn money for my expensive medical treatment. She was 5’3” tall but was noticed because of her beauty by a wealthy young man by the name of Dominic Pierce with a leg obsession. He imprisoned her. “This is the most beautiful face I’ve ever seen. If only your legs were a bit longer, I’d die with a smile.” Ava was forced to have leg-lengthening surgery. After the operation, her legs began to rot. Dominic found her disgusting and locked her in the basement. He tortured her until she died. I got kicked out of the mental health institute because I could not pay the medical fees. I found Dominic surrounded by beautiful women with long legs. “Those are the prettiest legs I’ve ever seen. If only your face were a little cuter, I’d die with a smile!” I pointed to the painting of Ava and scoffed, “What if I become her?”

Ang kasal ay dapat na simbolo ng wagas na pag-ibig, ngunit para kina Ethan Blackwood at Ava Morales, ito ay isang selyadong kontrata ng mga nakatagong intensyon. Sa isang lihim na seremonya, nagpalitan sila ng sumpa na walang ibang saksi kundi ang kanilang mga pansariling agenda. Si Ethan, ang makapangyarihang tagapagmana, ay nagpakasal lamang upang takasan ang arranged marriage na pinipilit ng kanyang mga magulang kay Sophia. Sa kabilang banda, si Ava ay pumasok sa buhay ni Ethan dala ang isang madilim na misyon: na tuklasin ang katotohanan sa likod ng misteryosong pagkamatay ng kanyang ama, na pinaniniwalaan nilang may madugong kaugnayan sa pamilyang Blackwood. Sa simula, ang lahat ay purong negosyo at kontrata.

Habang pilit na ipinaglalaban ni Ava ang katarungan, pinili naman ni Ethan na tumayo sa panig ng katotohanan upang iligtas ang kanilang relasyon, kahit pa ang kapalit nito ay ang pagbagsak ng sarili niyang pamilya. Hindi pa doon nagtatapos ang paghihirap. Ang ina ni Ethan na si Victoria ay naglunsad ng isang maruming plano upang sirain ang dangal ni Ava. Ginamit niya ang pinsan ni Ethan na si Lucas upang palabasin na may lihim na relasyon ang dalawa. Kasabwat ang selosang si Sophia, kumukuha sila ng mga huwad na ebidensya upang pilitin ang isang masakit na diborsyo sa pagitan ng mag-asawa. Ngayong nakabaon na sila sa rurok ng traydor at kasinungalingan, paano haharapin ni Ethan at Ava ang katotohanang bawat isa sa kanila ay biktima ng sarili nilang mga lihim? Magpapatuloy pa kaya ang pinaglalaban na relasyon?
