The silence stretched between them, thick and suffocating. Kourtney paced in front of him, her heels clicking against the dusty floor of the abandoned villa. The contract lay untouched on the table, just inches from Travis’s restrained hands. Her plan had been reckless, but it was all she had left. “I didn’t want to do this,” she murmured, voice shaking. “But you gave me no choice.” Travis tilted his head. “You think tying me to a chair will change how I feel?” “No. But it changes what you’re allowed to do,” she said, forcing a smirk that didn’t reach her eyes. He didn’t flinch. “What happens after the wedding, Kourtney? When your father finds out? When Kim finds out?” She looked away. “Then it’ll be too late. I’ll have what’s mine.” “Money?” he asked. “Or revenge?” That struck something in her. Kourtney turned to him, face darkening. “You chose her. You loved her. But what about me, Travis? You never even gave me a chance.” “You think forcing me into marriage will give you love?” “No,” she whispered. “But it’ll give me power.” Travis met her eyes. No fear. Just sadness. “This isn’t you,” he said softly. “You don’t know me anymore,” she replied, backing away. “Sign the contract, Travis. Or I swear, I’ll make sure you never walk free again.” Travis looked down at the paper, then back at her. “You’ll lose yourself in this, Kourtney.” She swallowed hard. “Then maybe losing myself is the only way I survive.”

Vivian Kim spent twenty years on the runway, managed by her mother, a former model who pushed her to the top. Together, they were unstoppable. But when her mother suddenly dies, Vivian’s career crumbles. At twenty-nine, the fashion world calls her too old and too faded to matter. Determined to start over, Vivian moves to Avron, a city of glass towers and endless ambition. She dreams of creating her own fashion brand and living life on her own terms. What she doesn’t expect is to clash with Vincent Evans on her very first day. Vincent is Avron’s cold and powerful billionaire, a man who trusts no one but the girl he adopted. To him, Vivian is nothing but trouble. To her, he is arrogant, impossible, and infuriatingly magnetic. One harmless lie soon spirals into scandal. To protect his empire and her reputation, they agree to a fake dating contract. But as every glance grows hotter and every rule starts to blur, both must face a dangerous question: What happens when pretending is no longer enough?

Mia Klein war seit drei Jahren mit Philipp Huber verheiratet. Sie hatte geglaubt, dass sie sein kaltes Herz irgendwann erwärmen könnte. Doch das Schicksal zeigte ihr eine andere Seite, als sie eines Tages ein Foto von ihm und ihrer eigenen Zwillingsschwester im Bett in den Händen hielt! Mia war gebrochen. Endlich war sie bereit, ihn loszulassen, und sich selbst ebenfalls. Doch als sie Philipp die Scheidungspapiere reichte, zerriss er sie vor ihren Augen und drängte sie an die Wand. Seine Stimme war voller Zorn: „Mia Klein, wenn du dich scheiden lassen willst, dann nur über meine Leiche!“ Mia blickte ihm mit kaltem, gleichgültigem Ausdruck in die Augen. „Philipp, zwischen mir und Sophie Klein kannst du nur eine wählen.“ Am Ende wählte Philipp Sophie. Doch als Mia tatsächlich aus seinem Leben verschwand, erkannte er, dass sein Herz längst ihr gehört hatte...

Drei Jahre verheiratet – doch ihr Ehemann hatte sie niemals berührt. Stattdessen befriedigte er sich nachts vor dem Foto ihrer Schwester. Erst als Mia Engel zufällig auf sein Handy starrte, begriff sie: Er hatte sie nur geheiratet, um sich zu rächen. Weil sie die wahre Erbin war. Weil sie der falschen Tochter den Platz weggenommen hatte. Mit zerschmettertem Herzen kehrte Mia zu ihren Pflegeeltern zurück. Doch dann, völlig unerwartet, begann Julian Wagner wie besessen die ganze Welt nach ihr abzusuchen.

No primeiro ano do nosso casamento, Augusto Moretti, meu marido perfeito aos olhos de todos, começou a mudar. Ele se afastou de mim, tornando-se frio e distante. De repente, ele parecia ter feito um voto de castidade: mandou construir uma pequena capela na mansão e não largava mais o rosário. Eu tentei de tudo para reacender a nossa relação. Mas, por mais que eu o provocasse, ele permanecia indiferente, como se eu fosse invisível. Até que, em uma noite, o flagrei através de uma fresta na porta do banheiro. Ele estava se entregando à paixão… Mas não por mim. Ele olhava fixamente para a foto de outra mulher. Foi nesse momento que percebi: ele não era frio, ele apenas não tinha sentimentos por mim. Decidi virar o jogo. Enganei Augusto para que assinasse o acordo do divórcio e desapareci completamente da vida dele. Mas, ironicamente, depois que sumi, ele enlouqueceu tentando me encontrar. Quando nos reencontramos, foi no casamento do tio dele. Eu vestia um vestido de noiva branco, e ele, com os olhos vermelhos de raiva, não conseguia de jeito nenhum me chamar de "tia"!
