Dylan O'brien And Thomas Brodie Sangster

Isabella only wanted revenge. Her family had been devastated by the strong billionaire Xander Blackwood's father, and he was going to pay. Her strategy, however, takes an unexpected turn when she is caught up in a tornado of secrets, deceit, and a marriage contract she did not expect. Xander is cold, calculating, and motivated by ambition. He regards Isabella as nothing more than a pawn in a bargain that will strengthen his kingdom. He doesn't expect the fire in her eyes or the spark that sparks whenever they're together. Their marriage was supposed to be a facade, but behind closed doors, a new game is being played. As they engage in a battle of wills, their ice shell begins to melt. Anger becomes to attraction, and neither can deny the tremendous chemistry that binds them together. But, just as they start to doubt the line between love and vengeance, a web of terrible secrets begins to emerge. The past returns to haunt them, threatening to destroy everything they've built—both professionally and in their fragile relationship. In a world of power and deception, Isabella and Xander must decide whether their marriage is a game or if something more serious has taken root. Will revenge pull them apart, or will genuine love be enough to keep them together?

Phoebe has always been the quiet good girl who followed the rules. Until one night she poured every filthy fantasy she had about the school’s golden boy, Conrad, into a handwritten letter. That letter was never meant to be read by anyone. But it fell into the hands of the one person who should never have seen it—Seth Astor. Her new stepbrother. Now Seth holds her most dangerous secret, and he’s not giving it back. Not unless Phoebe agrees to become his personal assistant for two months. Total obedience. No questions. No escape. What starts as blackmail slowly turns into something far more dangerous—forbidden desire, burning tension, and a game neither of them can stop playing.

Destroyed her first life, and her family was executed for being accused of using black magic. And she had to endure painful torments for the rest of her life to give her blood as penance to rid the kingdom of black magic. In the end, Rania died. An assassin killed her. Worse, she became a curious spirit who followed wherever the cruel king Alaric slaughtered monsters that entered the capital. Before then, she fell asleep in her spirit form and woke up in a place she had not seen for a long time. "I...went back to the past?!"

Three years after our divorce, I ran into Cole Allen again on the streets of Atlantica. I was there as a volunteer, handing out boxes of cold medicine, and he had become a homeless man, struggling to survive. It was ironic because our divorce had all started because of a box of cold medicine. “Two times a day. Two pills each time.” I handed the medicine to him, my tone calm, like I was speaking to a stranger. However, Cole’s eyes slowly turned red. “Sadie, you still hate me.” I didn’t look up. I kept passing out boxes of medicine to the people in line. “This box of medicine only costs one dollar. It’s very cheap, yet you forced me to sell my blood for money. Cole, how could I not hate you for that?”

Na nossa noite de núpcias, deixei uma regra clara para o meu marido, o CEO: — Não me importo se você se apaixonar por outra, mas se ela aparecer na minha frente, você nunca mais me verá. Por isso, mesmo quando ele se encantou por uma professora, ele a manteve escondida. Deu a ela tudo o que queria, exceto a permissão para cruzar o meu caminho. Mas aquele "canário", confiante no amor dele e exibindo sua barriga de grávida, decidiu me desafiar: — O Fábio disse que nunca te amou. Ele só se casou com você por causa da família Castilho. Se tiver juízo, tire esse bebê e peça o divórcio logo. Senão, quando o Fábio te chutar, você não vai levar nem um centavo! Eu sorri, peguei o telefone e liguei para o meu pai: — Pode cancelar o investimento na família Moretti. Eu vou me divorciar.

Meu marido CEO, Clayton Lockwood, estava convencido de que eu era uma interesseira. Sempre que ele ia consolar o seu primeiro amor durante as suas crises depressivas, acabava comprando uma bolsa de edição limitada para mim. Depois de seis meses de casamento, o meu closet já estava abarrotado delas. Após me dar noventa e nove bolsas, ele percebeu que eu tinha mudado. Eu já não chorava até perder o fôlego nem discutia até ficar rouca quando ele ia visitar o primeiro amor. Também deixei de enfrentar tempestades e atravessar a cidade só porque ele dizia que queria me ver. Passei a pedir apenas um terço para o nosso filho que ainda não tinha nascido. Quando mencionei a criança, o olhar de Clayton se suavizou. — Assim que a Ruby melhorar, a gente vai primeiro ao hospital para fazer um check-up e depois compra o terço. Eu concordei obedientemente. Mal sabia ele que eu tinha sofrido um aborto espontâneo dez dias antes. Também já tinha preparado um acordo de divórcio, pronto para receber a assinatura dele.

— Doutor, já terminou o exame? Eu não aguento mais — digo enquanto estou deitada na maca da clínica da faculdade. Uma tela bloqueia completamente minha visão. O instrumento de exame entra alguns centímetros mais fundo em mim. Eu tento ao máximo me controlar, mas um gemido me escapa. — Não! O médico permaneceu em silêncio e apenas ajustou a máquina para que minhas pernas ficassem ainda mais erguidas.

"She's fierce, violent, and smart. That's why no one should ever underestimate her capabilities." Angela has been running away from the ghost in her past. But who would have expected that they will meet at different time with different goals in mind? Will she be able to finish her goal? Or she will be a failure just like what her parents said?

Asher didn't plan to see Kai Voss again after that night. He planned to pay his mother's medical bills, keep his head down, and survive. Then Kai — commanding, possessive, the kind of CEO who fills a room without trying — offers him a job that pays more than Asher has ever seen. It's just business. It has to be. What follows is slow and inevitable. Close quarters, charged silences, and a dominant man who looks at Asher like he's the only thing worth looking at, then retreats behind cold authority by morning. The line between professional and something far more consuming dissolves faster than either of them planned. Asher knows better. He falls anyway. Then he finds out what Kai's empire is built on. What — who — it cost. His father. Everything reframes in an instant. Every kindness, every stolen look, every moment Asher mistook for something real. The man he's been falling for is connected to the death that hollowed out his family — and now he has to decide what to do with a truth that arrived too late, wrapped in something that feels dangerously like love. Vengeance or surrender. Hatred or the thing quietly replacing it. Some men are impossible to trust. Some are impossible to leave. Kai Voss is both.
