Bones Chapter 26

After two years of marriage, I believed I was living the dream—until the day I gave birth to our long-awaited heir. The house was filled with joy as my husband's family arrived, bearing gifts and ready to bestow a name upon our child, as tradition dictated. But the happiness of the day shattered in an instant when my husband walked in, hand in hand with his childhood sweetheart. In front of everyone, he announced not only our divorce but also his engagement to her, as if I had never mattered. *** "I’m divorcing Stacy," Jason announces, his voice unwavering, "to marry Nicole Cruz, my childhood sweetheart." He points to the woman standing before him who smiles and waves at everyone in the room. My world tilts on its axis. The words echo in my mind, louder and louder until they drown out everything else. What is going on?? "But why?" I whisper, my voice barely audible, even to myself. I'm unable to believe his betrayal. Jason doesn’t even glance at the child in my arms. "Because this has been a long time coming, Stacy. I’ve only stayed this long out of obligation and not love." Important Author’s Note: This is a rewritten version of my book The Alpha’s Betrayal: Reclaiming His Rejected Luna. From Chapter 12 onward, the story takes a new turn with fresh twists and drama. Thank you for reading—I hope you enjoy this new version!

I've been overlooked by the Lawson family a hundred times over. On birthdays, they only ever get a cake for my sister, Jocelyn Lawson. When I'm sick, I lie alone in a hospital bed while they fuss around her. I tell myself to tough it out and be a good daughter, but no amount of my endurance ever earns me a drop of their favor. On my wedding day, I think I'll finally get my moment to shine, at least for once. But I'm wrong. My parents, my brother, and even my fiance—Felix Wright, the head of a mafia empire—abandon me to attend Jocelyn's graduation ceremony. They leave me standing alone at the altar, enduring the guests' whispers and pitying glances. But Felix just throws me a cold line. "It's just a wedding. We'll make it up another day." It's not the first time. At our engagement party, Jocelyn whimpers about a stomachache, and he rushes her to the hospital without a flicker of hesitation. I'm left to smile through gritted teeth, making excuses to a room full of guests. That's the moment it hits me. To them, I'll always be the spare. So, I walk away. I pack my bags and carry a secret with me—the child growing inside me. This time, I'm done waiting for their scraps of affection. I'm starting a new chapter in my life, for me and my baby.

Intertwined by fate, also torn apart by fate. One seems so familiar deep down within her heart..., while the other claims to be her fiancé. The worst part is that she doesn't even remember who they are.......... Chen Lan- "No matter what happens, I'll fall for you again and again." "Take it as my revenge for what you did to me."............. Brett Zhou- "The person I had a crush on, was just an illusion created by you! So, from the beginning, it was no one else but you! and only you! How do you explain this?"............... Laia Parker- Simple, adorable, and loyal - by nature. Complex, prodigal and tactful - by profession. Calm, both playful and elegant - by temperament. A rare talent.....when it comes to her substantial field - Psychology. All she was seeking for is a 'pure and innocent love' of her lifetime. Yet she became entangled with someone whom she 'couldn't' be with and also with someone whom she 'shouldn't' be with. Laia believes that she can at least try to manipulate fate for good - which leads her to face a love trial. Obviously, fate has its own plans....and there's no escape. Especially when 'he' combats all the obstacles just to love her once again even when his memories are no longer with him......... Note: In the beginning, it's all about the female protagonist adapting to the confusion around her. From chapter 4 and onwards, the story will pick up pace.

"Sudah jelas aku masih gadis." Adaline berucap dengan nada bangga. Walau, berujar pelan. "Kau tidak bisa membedakan mana perempuan yang masih gadis? Kau payah sekali." "Haha. Kau masih gadis rupanya." Titans pun menjawab dengan santai. Tak lupa menyeringai. "Jadi, kau belum pernah tidur dengan pria mana pun, Miss Adaline? Kau tidak ada kelainan bukan?" "Tidak! Aku normal, Mr. Titans!" Adaline berseru dalam intonasi yang tinggi, tak ada keraguan. "Aku tidak mungkin bisa menyukai sesama jenis. Aku hanya suka pria. Apalagi, macam dirimu." Adaline meneruskan. Bicara blak-blakan. "Dan, aku yang akan pertama untukmu, benar bukan? Bagaimana cara aku memuaskanmu? Kau ingin yang seperti apa, Miss Adaline?" "Berikan aku percintaan yang paling panas.

The 26 year old billionaire CEO, Viaan Adams, had never been so revengeful until an hour ago when he was forced to marry a complete stranger, Kia, the girl who helped him last night. He was at her doorstep in the middle of the night, trying to protect himself from the outrageous storm, but what he didn't know was this stormy night was going to bring havoc in his life. A single help to the stranger in absence of her parents cost Kia enormously. She had never imagined that her own parents would force her into the marriage with a complete stranger just because she helped him during storms out of humanity. Now, these two are stuck with each other. One with a vengeful mind as he believes it was all Kia's plan, and another with a mourning heart because of her parents. Will Viaan accept her as his wife or will he punish her badly? Will Kia accept her fate or will she fight all the hurdles before it's too late? Will Viaan ever come to know the truth she is hiding or will he hold her guilty forever? His features screamed revenge. Revenge for the mishap he just went through in the form of an unwanted marriage. "But, let me tell you one thing, you have done the most wrong deed by marrying me. The fortune you wish to get by forcing me into this marriage will never be yours. I'll definitely take you away from here, but only to let you get lost in your life." He spat venomously. "Like you left no way out of this for me, I will leave no way out for you too. So, get your bags, Miss Kia, it's time to leave!" Viaan glared at her with utter disgust in his eyes.

**********This story contains subjects and topics that are not suitable for younger viewers. Scenes that are depicted are that of abuse, slavery, trafficing, vulgar language, ect.. This story has a lot of dark and twisted topics and should not be read if you know these dark themes will be triggering. I will do my best to Label the chapters of abuse but know in almost every chapter there is some sort of triggering material. Again, I do not wish to cause any harm to anys emotional and mental health. Their are also subjestive material that includes but is not limited to emotional, physical, sexaul abuse as well as pedophilia. I in no way support any of these tragedies but do create dark and twisted stories. All stories created by me are completely fictional and have no real merit to any person's life (at least intentionally, I am not psychic and can not be sure that someone has or hasn’t gone through these horrors. Just know that you have been fully warned. Felicity is the oldest daughter of the Alpha of the Howl Pack. They are well known for their underground buisness. Forced to marry another alphas son in order to take over for her father Felicity is at a crossroads from wanting what she dreams and doing what she was brought up to do. Always the dutiful daughter. Felix was orphaned at an early age and sold into the seedy underground world of human sex slavery. Felix has only wanted one thing. Peace. His peace is that of a beautiful girl that sits by the lake every night to console him. In his dreams.

She thinks he’s a monster. He thinks she’s fate. And she ran. But what if the real danger was yet to be unleashed? Trigger Warning: This book contains morally gray werewolves, aggressive mate bonds, and a love interest who doesn’t understand the concept of personal space. Forced intimacy? Physical, magical, boy on girl, girl on girl... Dubious consent? Why stop at the MMC? If you like your romance with a side of "this is probably a red flag," proceed with caution (and maybe a glass of wine). A fantasy adventure steeped in dark romance, where a haunted warrior may be the submissive heroine’s greatest protector—or her ruin. She ran from him once, but fate, magic, and desire dragged her back. He destroyed her life, and now, with the future of the world at stake, he can’t trust himself not to destroy her again. CHAPTER PREVIEW: Lyra swallowed hard, her throat dry, but the words escaped her lips before she could stop them. “I’m a reject,” she whispered, her voice cracking. “The man who was supposed to be my mate chose my sister instead.” His palms slammed the wall beside her head as his roar blew the hair out of her face. Lyra flinched, recoiling. His growl deepened, reverberating through the small space. “Whoever rejected you is irrelevant,” he snarled, his voice dripping with finality. “You. Belong. To me.”
