Benjamin Cheever

I've been married to billionaire CEO Christopher Hayes for two years, and only now does my ex, Benjamin Clarke, decide to propose. The rumble of engines echoes as a fleet of black trucks lines up neatly outside my private estate. The drivers unload box after box of gifts—luxury watches, fine jewelry, couture gowns, and even a grand piano. Standing proudly among the shower of rose petals, he announces, "Sienna, I told you—the only reason I had a child with my sister-in-law was because my older brother died in an accident, and she wanted to keep our family's bloodline alive. "The baby just turned a month old. I've fulfilled my promise to her, and now I've come to marry you!" I lounge in the heated pool, having just finished my postpartum recovery exercises, and I can't even be bothered to look at him. He knits his brows, and his tone turns patronizing. "I know you're upset, but you're the heiress of the Grant family; you have everything you could ever want! Why can't you show a little compassion for a widow who just lost her husband? "I know it was selfish of me to make you wait for two years, but I'm back now! Our wedding will be held in three days. I can tell you still care about me. If not, why would you greet me in such a revealing bikini?" His overconfidence makes me chuckle. "Guards, get him out of here! I'm trying to swim here." What a joke. I've just welcomed the heir of Hayes Group into the world, and Christopher has been insisting that I take our baby home to visit my parents. Yet, somehow, I end up running into this idiot.

BOOK 1: TIMELESS ONES Ipinangako ni Fritz sa sarili niyang walang ibang babae siyang iaakyat sa dream house niya maliban kay Julia. Ang nag-iisang babaeng minahal at minamahal niya mula pagkabata. Pero nasira ang pangakong iyon nang hingin ng isang malapit na kaibigan na patuluyin niya doon ang isang nangangailangan na sa kalaunan ay napag-alaman niyang si Julia pala. Time is forever for those who love truly. Pero paano mangyayari iyon kung nariyan ang asawa ni Julia na siyang mas may higit na karapatan sa babaeng pinakamamahal niya? BOOK 2: JOURNEY TO FOREVER Nang tanggihan ni Claire ang inialok na kasal ni Lawrence at piliin ang Amerika, nasaktan noon ang binata. Pero nagbago ang ihip nang hangin makalipas ang walong araw ay maganap ang isang malagim na aksidenteng nagbigay daan sa muling pagsasanga ng buhay nina Lawrence at Anya. Ang unang babaeng minahal ng binata, ang unang babaeng pinangarap nito at ang nag-iisang babaeng hindi nawala sa puso nito sa loob ng mahabang panahon. At higit sa lahat ang pinakamamahal ni Lawrence pero minabuti nitong talikuran para sa kapanan ng iba. Pero hindi lang si Anya ang nagbalik sa buhay niya, kundi maging si Claire. Si Claire na mas nanaisin pang mawala nalang ang binata bago ito mapunta sa iba. BOOK 3: UNBROKEN VOW Bata pa si Sara nang una itong masilayan ni Benjamin. Pero nagkaroon na ito ng espesyal na parte sa kanyang puso. At masasabi niyang puso niya mismo ang nag-alaga ng bahaging iyon kaya hindi niya iyon nagawang ibigay sa iba. Ang isang tunay at wagas na pagmamahal ay walang pinipiling panahon o edad, minsan kailangan lang maghintay. Pero anong katiyakan ni Benjamin na hindi mahuhulog sa iba at babalik sa kanya ang dalaga kung ang tanging pinanghahawakan niya ay isang pangakong kung tutuusi'y posible ring masira?

« Qu'est-ce que… tu fais ? » demanda Celeste d'une voix tremblante mais douce, comme si elle était au bord des larmes. « Qu'en penses-tu, ma petite ange ? » Malakai inclina la tête, ses yeux sombres se plissant, tandis que sa grande main caressait chaque tache de rousseur de son visage. « Voilà comment je montre à tout le monde à qui tu appartiens. En d'autres termes, je te revendique, ma chère épouse, et ici, point de salut, seulement la damnation. » ***************** Celeste Ronan devait épouser le benjamin des frères Valtor. L'amour de sa vie, mais quelques jours avant le mariage, elle le surprit en train de murmurer des mots doux à l'oreille de sa sœur aînée, tandis qu'elle le chevauchait. Fragilité et fille de la famille Ronan, elle fut rejetée, impuissante, tandis que son ex-fiancé épousait sa sœur aînée. Un verre d'alcool était censé l'aider à noyer son chagrin et à se complaire dans son désespoir, mais il n'en fut rien. Sa résistance à l'alcool ne fit pas le poids, et elle finit dans les bras de l'aîné des frères Valtor, Malakai Valtor. Celui qui portait une cicatrice, le milliardaire impitoyable et froid qui piétinait rois et ministres. Il n'était pas un sauveur, mais un démon dans un costume Alexander Amosu sur mesure. Céleste cherchait désespérément à fuir la réalité. Elle signa donc un contrat de mariage et devint officiellement sienne. À lui. À lui de la briser. À lui de la damner. Malakai Valtor est d'une avidité sans bornes. Il n'est pas question de partager sa jeune épouse innocente, qui cherche refuge dans son enfer, ni sa multinationale valant des milliards. Ni avec son frère, ni avec personne d'autre.
