Five years ago, Lilian West's world shattered when she discovered that her marriage had been nothing but a carefully crafted lie. Her best friend, Emily, had introduced Wilson as her cousin, but in reality, he was her lover, and together, they had planned a scheme to strip Lilian of her family's wealth. Blinded by love, Lilian used her father’s resources to propel Wilson’s career as a fashion designer and then she signed over her father’s assets to him. The betrayal came crashing down when she uncovered their deceit—just as she learned she was pregnant. With his mission accomplished, Wilson coldly discarded her, leaving her homeless and broken. Powerless but fueled by vengeance, she made a bold move—marrying his stepbrother and relocating into a new city, where she gave birth to twins with extraordinary talents. Over the next five years, their unique abilities led her to unimaginable success, transforming her into the most powerful and influential woman in the world. At last, the moment to crush Wilson had arrived, and everything was falling into place—until, once again, her world came crumbling down.

J'avais grandi à l'étranger, et ma mère, craignant que je me marie avec un étranger, avait directement choisi à Paris un fiancé à la fois beau et brillant pour moi, me demandant de revenir pour les fiançailles. Je suis allée dans une boutique de luxe pour choisir ma robe de fiançailles, et j'avais choisi une longue robe bustier couleur crème que j'étais sur le point d'essayer. La femme à côté de moi a jeté un coup d'œil à la robe que je tenais et a dit à la vendeuse : « Cette robe a un style assez original, fais-la venir pour que je l'essaie. » La vendeuse a immédiatement pris la robe de mes mains avec brutalité. J'ai protesté avec indignation : « Tout se fait selon l'ordre d'arrivée, j'ai choisi cette robe en premier, comment vous pouvez faire comme ça ? » Mais elle m'a regardée avec mépris et a dit : « Cette robe vaut cent mille euros, une pauvre comme toi peut se la permettre ? » « Je suis la sœur de cœur d'Alex Thomas, PDG du Groupe Thomas. À Paris, la famille des Thomas fait la loi ! » Quelle coïncidence, Alex n'était-il pas justement mon fiancé ? Je l'ai immédiatement appelé : « Ta sœur de cœur m'a volé ma robe de fiançailles, que proposes-tu de faire ? »

Violet eyes with piercing sight. Mane of gold in pale moonlight. Skin so hard and lily white. Voice so soft, yet filled with might. He comes to me in the dark of night. Flash of teeth, smile so slight. There is no fear, no need to fight. In his embrace, I crave his bite. -S.R. Michele, or Shelly to those closest to her, is a typical 21 yr old, trying to find her way in life. She has good family, a close circle of friends. She's outgoing and friendly, and a bit reckless and impulsive sometimes. And she has certain gifts...when she touches things, she can see into the past, she can feel what was felt by others, and she can sense things before they happen. Ok, so maybe she's not so typical. An impromptu trip to New Orleans, a party on Bourbon Street, and an attempted assault in a dark alley lead her into a world she didn't know existed...but one she's not afraid of. She doesn't know if the violet-eyed stranger that comes to her rescue, and follows her home, is a friend or a foe - and honestly, she doesn't care. Once you've had a taste of the darkness, it's hard to pull away... **** This book was written in the late 1990's - early 2000's, and originally published in 2004, under the title: Diary of a Vampire by S.M. Royston. It was my first book, and it wasn't long until I came to hate it! (Please, don't look it up - I promise you, it's terrible) So here we are, years later, and I've decided to throw out my original work, and re-write it. Because I'm the author, and I can do that. The story, characters, and settings are the same - but the writing style is different, and in my opinion, much, much better. I hope you enjoy it. ****

In my previous life, I married the Underboss of the Marino family to forge an alliance between our mafia families. However, he treated me with nothing but cold indifference. In the end, he conspired with his mistress and left me to burn alive. When I opened my eyes again, I was 22 years old once more. I was back at that party where he had locked me out for her sake. This time, I did not cry. I simply turned and walked away. I tore up our marriage contract myself, built my own fashion empire, and met a man who actually respected and loved me. The irony of it all? The same man who once threw me away like garbage now chased after me like a mad dog, desperate to fix what he had broken. "Rosalie, just come back with me now and I'll pretend none of this ever happened!" His eyes were bloodshot as he begged. I looked at him and laughed. What happened could not be erased just because he wanted it to be. In this lifetime, I would bask in the sunlight and live just for myself.
