Grand Galloping Gala Dresses

Raine Monston a passé trois ans en tant que fille indésirable et femme au foyer silencieuse, invisible et obéissante. Jusqu’à la nuit où tout s’est brisé. À la fête de bienvenue de sa demi-sœur, elle découvre que son mari, Marco, la trompait avec sa propre sœur, qui porte désormais son enfant. Humiliée et rejetée, Raine quitte la soirée avec le peu de dignité qu’il lui reste, pour être kidnappée la même nuit. Marco reçoit une vidéo de Raine, mais il ne se montre jamais. Même lorsqu’elle gît brisée dans un lit d’hôpital pendant des jours, personne ne la recherche. Ni son mari, ni sa famille. C’est à cet instant que Raine a compris que son mariage était terminé. Alors elle revient avec les papiers de divorce. Et Marco signe sans hésiter. Et quand elle s’éloigne, un autre homme l’attend. Quinton Beckham. Le frère de son ex-mari. Le plus grand rival de Marco. Le dernier homme avec qui elle devrait être impliquée. Le frère contre lequel il se bat depuis toujours. Désormais, elle est l’arme la plus puissante de son rival. Parce que la femme qu’il a rejetée n’a jamais été ordinaire. Derrière les sourires discrets se cachait une identité secrète. Elle est la designer de génie que le monde entier du luxe cherche désespérément. La femme qui détient désormais le pouvoir de décider de l’avenir de l’empire familial est la même épouse qu’il a jetée. Et son plus grand regret.

"Stay away from the room at the extreme end of the east wing... Be quiet as much as possible.... Leave at once when the second hand struck 5pm, not a second late!" Those were the three grand rules that she received. Allicia will never have expected her life to face a total turn around after she accepted to work as a caregiver in the house of a man that she never even met before. She had no idea what this unknown person she worked for was called, she had never seen him, not once had he shown his face. He was always hidden in a room in the mansion. Allicia had never been a disobedient girl all her life and she followed the rules while working diligently in the mansion. The only thing she did in the lonely mansion was sit by the window and sing with the birds. Her life went on smoothly and peacefully until an unfortunate stormy evening... It was a painful experience for her, one that she never wished to recall ever again. Not until she met him...

Damian was the fearsome don of a mafia family, but I was his sole weakness. In order to marry me, a poor girl from the slums, he was punished by his family sixteen times, and the scars on his back remained terrifying, even to this date. To make me happy, he killed one of the best arms dealers in the world just to get the blue crystal I had mentioned offhandedly once. He built a manor named “One and Only” for me and swore that I was his one and only true love. I had thought that our happiness would last forever, until the day I saw him cradling a pair of twins in another manor. The twins’ mother was my mortal enemy. She had once had someone break my ribs and stuff dirt into my mouth. Hence, on the day of our wedding anniversary, I prepared a grand gift for him: a private jet that exploded and plummeted into the ocean, along with a charred wedding ring. In my world, betrayal never led to forgiveness, only abandonment.

S’il existait un moyen d’oublier toutes les horreurs que la vie t’a infligées… Un moyen de t’éloigner des personnes qui t’ont brisé, jour après jour… Un moyen de tout effacer pour recommencer à zéro… L’accepterais-tu ? Alec, lui, l’a fait. Le jour où il a découvert que son plus grand tyran était aussi son âme sœur, il n’a plus souhaité qu’une seule chose : disparaître. Oublier. Effacer chaque souvenir, chaque blessure, chaque humiliation gravée dans sa mémoire. Recommencer. Et, contre toute attente, la magie lui a offert cette chance. Avec l’aide d’un étrange sorcier un vieil homme à l’allure ridicule, vêtu d’un short couvert de pois violets, Alec a franchi une frontière que peu de gens osent approcher : celle qui sépare le passé de l’oubli. Mais le destin est parfois cruel. Parce que ce n’est pas parce qu’une chose est censée être ainsi… que l’on doit l’accepter. Alec ne l’aurait jamais imaginé. Après des années de souffrance et d’humiliation, il était convaincu que la rédemption ne serait jamais à sa portée. Chaque jour, le poids de son passé écrasait ses épaules, lui volant peu à peu toute force et tout espoir. Jusqu’au jour où il a découvert la vérité. Son pire ennemi. Son plus grand bourreau. N’était autre que son âme sœur. Son mate. Alors il a choisi de fuir. Repartir de zéro. Effacer son existence comme si elle n’avait jamais été écrite. Mais le destin… n’abandonne jamais aussi facilement. Car parfois, même lorsque l’on tente de s’échapper, le passé finit toujours par retrouver son chemin jusqu’à nous.

Half an hour ago, my destined mate finally proposed to me, and we will hold a grand mating ceremony in half a month. The moment I’d been waiting for ten years had finally come. But right at this monment. My Alpha was holding another woman, his fingers tracing her skin. His voice was soft, almost worshipful. “I regret everything. If you want me back, I will break the mate bond with her.” He had no idea I was watching from outside the window—he was so wrapped up in that woman, he didn’t even catch my scent. Right then, it hit me: our mate bond, our ten years together, flash throug in my head. I sent a mindlink to my mother and told her I was going to cut down the mate-bond with Mike. Then I would go back to the Deep Blue pack to run my own. Mike would never know that our mating ceremony would be the day I leave.

On the night of my fifth wedding anniversary with Sebastian Gray, he lit up the entire city with fireworks for me. All our friends kept saying what a wonderful man he was—so loving, so romantic. The kind of husband every woman dreams of. At the grand finale, the fireworks burst into words that lit up the night sky: Happy Birthday, Jen. Jennifer Kingsley was Sebastian's first love, his ideal woman, the one who had always lingered in his heart. Sebastian looked at me, his expression almost sheepish. "Ah, it's Jen's birthday too. They must have mixed up the fireworks." That night, Jennifer posted on her social media: "Men are boys till the day they die, always fumbling their way through romance." She added a picture of the fireworks, along with a photo of her and Sebastian standing close under the dazzling display. I liked her post and left a comment: "From school to altar—what a touching love story. When's the wedding?"

My car was passing by the entrance of the office when I saw both my sisters 'wrestling' vigorously with a bum. I wasn't surprised, however, even recording a video of it and sending it to the biggest news outlet of the country, saying, "I want it seen across the world before 7pm." After all, in my last life, those two sisters were so keen to please Harold Langford that they allowed him to steal my birthright all he wanted. I bore with it because they were family, and ended up resting in pieces. But now that I had a second chance, I would return the favor. At the company gala, Harold once again took my seat as he snorted at me haughtily. "Hmph! If Ellie and Jennie didn't insist on showing you how the world works, a poor college student like you wouldn't even make it through the front door!" "Know your place and don't cause me trouble, or they will have you beaten to a pulp!" Seeing that he was still running his mouth, I kicked him three feet away as I chuckled. "Who do you think you are? How dare you strut when you're just a gigolo who only knows how to please hags!"

A sacrificial mate. An exiled predator. A bond forged in silver and secrets. Brooke Lawson is the "useless" daughter of the Lawson Pack—a silent survivor in a den of monsters. When her father strikes a desperate deal to save their borders, Brooke is the currency. She is forced into a sacred, irreversible mating bond with the man the world calls a failure: Logan Pierce. Stripped of his title and branded a rogue, Logan is a man of shadows and scars. He is the beast whispered about in ghost stories—cold, volatile, and dangerously powerful. To the Lawson family, he’s a disgrace. To Brooke, he’s a mystery she was never meant to solve. But the "loser" she was forced to marry is a lie. Behind the closed doors of their neutral-ground apartment, the submissive scout vanishes. In his place stands a man with the gaze of a king and the hunger of a wolf who has finally found his prize. Logan isn't just a rogue; he is the secret Sovereign of the lawless territories, and Brooke is the only weakness he’s ever allowed himself to have. As the Lawson Pack prepares to humiliate them at the Great Lunar Gala, they have no idea that the man they mocked owns the very ground they walk on. Brooke was sold to a monster, but she’s about to realize that the most dangerous thing about Logan Pierce isn't his claws—it’s the way he looks at her like she’s his entire world.

“I won’t be erased. Not this time.” Anya Petrova never asked to inherit a fortune—let alone a war. For years, the down-to-earth preschool teacher built a quiet life for her daughter, Zoe, far from the icy world of billionaire empires and old European bloodlines. But on her 25th birthday, everything changes. Her late father—powerful shipping magnate Nikolai Volkov—names her in his will. The catch? She must live for one year in the penthouse of her cold, infuriating half-brother, Dimitri Volkov, ruthless CEO of the Volkov empire… a man she secretly knows far too well. Because five years ago, at a masked gala, Dimitri was the stranger who left her breathless—and unknowingly made him the father of her child. Now, forced into a dangerous game of legacy and lies, Anya must navigate the treacherous world of old-money elites who will stop at nothing to erase Zoe’s claim to the Volkov name. But Dimitri is no longer the cold enemy she feared—and together, they uncover secrets darker than either imagined: an ancient blood feud tied to Anya’s mother, and a rival family prepared to strike in the shadows. The stakes? Everything. Zoe’s future. Anya’s heart. A fortune worth more than gold—one built on love, truth, and a family worth fighting for.
