Emilia Clark, a young woman struggling with mounting family debts, responds to a mysterious job posting that arrived unexpectedly in her email. When she arrives at the upscale office for what she assumes is a standard interview, she discovers she's the sole candidate for an unusual position that wasn't clearly described in the original correspondence. The role, as revealed by the formidable Mrs. Grey—matriarch of a wealthy and traditional family—is that of a surrogate mother. The Greys are offering an extraordinarily large sum of money for Emilia to carry a child for their family, with the biological father being Mrs. Grey's son. The older woman presents this as a business transaction, delivered with cold efficiency and an underlying air of entitlement that comes with generations of wealth and influence. Mrs. Grey makes it clear that this is a one-time offer with no room for negotiation or delay—Emilia must accept immediately or leave and never return. There will be no second chances, no time to consider, and no opportunity to ask questions or seek advice. Caught completely off guard, Emilia finds herself in an impossible position. The money would solve her family's financial crisis and lift a burden that has been consuming her life. Yet the weight of the decision—to carry a child for strangers under such pressured circumstances—leaves her reeling. As Mrs. Grey waits for an answer, Emilia must quickly weigh her desperate need for financial security against her autonomy, dignity, and the ethical implications of entering into such an arrangement under duress.

She was the lowest among them, an omega meant to serve, to obey, to be forgotten. Until the Alpha touched her. Until he marked her with words that felt like a promise... and shoved her off a cliff like she was nothing. Ayla thought betrayal had a name, a face, a heartbeat she once trusted. She thought the crashing water would be her grave. But death didn’t claim her. The dragon did. She awakens not in darkness, but in silk sheets soaked with sweat, her body wracked with fire, strangers calling her Queen Liliana. The child they beg her to bring into the world is no wolf pup, it’s something older, deeper… and hers. Now fire sings in her veins. Scales burn beneath her skin. She remembers being Ayla. But they swear she is a queen, reborn through flame and fury, the last of the dragon-blooded line. Torn between two lives, two names, two fates… Was she reborn by fate’s hand, or was she always meant to rise? Because if this isn’t death, then it must be the beginning… of the Dragon Queen.

Now they’re strangers with history stitched between them, trying to make sense of the pieces. But something doesn’t add up. The crash, the silence, the secrets. Elias starts to remember bits flashes of headlights, a chase, a crash that wasn’t in the sky at all. And the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous everything becomes. Someone didn’t just want Elias gone. They wanted him forgotten. But Lucas never forgot. He stayed. He waited. And now, standing face to face with the man who used to be his husband, he’ll risk everything to find out what really happened.

"Hello Bestie.. Kumusta?" sagot ni Roldan sa kabilang linya. "Bestie, help!!!! Hindi ko na kaya" habol ang hininga na sagot ni Carissa. "Bestie, what happened.... Saan ka ngayon pupuntahan kita" natataranta na sagot ni Roldan. Humihikbi na sumagot si Carissa " Dito sa park Bestie.. Please puntuhan mo ako.. Hindi ko na kaya... Nakipaghiwalay na siya sa akin...... Ang sakit...... Sakit.." sumisigok na sagot ni Carissa. Halatang pinipilit na lang nitong magsalita. "Saang Park Bestie??? Please hold on.. Wag mong masyadong isipin ang problema.. Pupuntahan kita diyan promise.. Send mo sa akin ang location mo ok????... Tarantang sagot ni Roldan. Hindi sumagot si Carissa.. Patuloy lang ito sa pagluha. " Hello Bestie naririnig mo ba ako?? Send mo sa akin ang location mo Para napuntahan kita." halos nagmamakaawa na wika ni Roldan. Alam niya kasi na wala sa huwesyo ang kanyang kaibigan baka mapahamak ito. "Bestie please magsalita ka naman. Sige na send mo na sa akin kung saan ka. Paalis na ako.... Nandito na ako sa kotse." wika ulit ni Roldan. Nag-umpisa na din ito magdrive. Maya-maya pa ay nareceived na din niya ang location kong saan naroon si Carissa. Agad niya itong pinuntahan at natagpuan sa isang upuan. Nakayuko ito at halatang hirap sa paghinga. Nang mahawakan ni Roldan ay agad niyang itinaas ang mukha ni Carissa. Nagulat siya sa hitsura nito. Maputla ito at nakapikit na. Bakas sa mukha nito ang mga luha at paghihirap. Agad na niyakap ni Roldan ang kanyang kaibigan. Maya-maya pa ay naramdaman niya itong lumungay-ngay sa kanyang balikat. Bumagsak din ang mga kamay nito. Nataranta si Roldan ng marealized niya na nawalan ng malay si Carissa . Agad niya itong binuhat at isinakay sa kotse. Pinaharurot agad niya papuntang hospital.

⚠️ Trigger Warnings: Contains explicit sexual content, consensual power dynamics, manipulation, dominance/submission themes, obsession, emotional degradation, and morally gray characters. 18+ only. Reader discretion is advised. My Reluctant Plaything is a raw, intoxicating collection of gay erotica where lust blurs the lines between love and control. Every story is a clash of dominance and resistance of men who crave power and those who refuse to kneel... until they do. From ruthless mafia heirs and calculating professors to damaged billionaires and possessive strangers, these stories dive deep into forbidden desires, reluctant submission, and the thrilling high of surrendering to the one man you shouldn't want. It’s not about romance. It’s about obsession. They said no. But their bodies said everything else.

Two strangers meet under the guise of chance, unaware they’re each hiding a dangerous truth. Cassandra “Cass” Blake, a secret heiress and the cunning owner of Phoenix Analytics, prefers to work in the shadows, uncovering corporate fraud, laundering schemes, and hidden enemies. Leo Knight, a wealthy, enigmatic operative with ties to covert international intelligence, thrives on staying off the radar, even if it means letting the world think he’s just another self-made billionaire with a playboy smile. Their worlds collide when they’re forced into a series of seemingly coincidental meetings—coffee shops, charity galas, business negotiations—each encounter sharpening the magnetism between them. But neither knows the other’s real name… or the real reason they keep showing up in each other’s lives.
