Higuma One Piece

My daughter, Elise Dolton, got sick, so I rushed over to take care of her. The moment I stepped inside, a rotten stench hit me right in the face, so I offered to help clean the place up. Her roommates' faces dropped right away. "What smell, Mrs. Dolton? The place is fine." "If you think it's such a dump, then have Elise move out. Don't come in here acting like you're better than all of us. We're not putting up with that!" Even Elise shoved me impatiently. "If you’re here to visit, then just act like it. Stop making a scene and embarrassing me, okay?” They were all college roommates, splitting rent on a run-down unit in an old complex. When I went in, I noticed them gathered around a pot of spicy stew. The room was thick with steam and smoke, but it still couldn't cover that awful stench. Strangely, none of them seemed to notice it. Had something gone wrong with my sense of smell? That night, the smell was so overwhelming that I couldn't fall asleep. In the end, I realized the odor was coming from Elise herself. I hurried her into the bathroom and scrubbed her down over and over, but the smell didn't fade at all. It stayed just as strong. With no other option, I called a cleaner, planning to disinfect the entire place inside and out. But Elise's roommates felt offended and started arguing with me. In the chaos, someone shoved me. My temple slammed into the sharp corner of the coffee table, and I died on the spot. When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the moment I first walked through the door. The stench rushed at me all over again...

Blurb I wasn’t supposed to see him again. That night was a transaction. No names. No promises. Just money I needed and a man who liked control. The next morning, I got the internship that was supposed to change my life. And walked straight into his office. Nathan Hayes is my boss now. Cold. Demanding. Engaged to a woman who secures his empire. In public, he acts like we’ve never met. Behind closed doors, he reminds me exactly who I am to him. If our secret gets out, I lose everything. But walking away from him might ruin me first

I'm kidnapped at the same time as my husband's true love. I call him on the verge of death and beg him to save me. However, he thinks I'm putting on an act and only pays the ransom for his true love. He leaves me and his brother to die. Before hanging up, he snaps, "Drop the act, Marlena! Can't you see how terrified Sue is? I'll get even with you for hiring someone to kidnap her!" It's too bad Howard Jenne will never get even with me for this. The moment he turns his back on me and his autistic brother, the kidnappers kill us.

Amber Moon gave up her title as Princess and heir to the Realm and spent three years as an Omega to prove love was real, only to watch the man she sacrificed everything for choose her best friend instead. Betrayed and heartbroken, she ran. In the forest where Rogues attacked, a stranger saved her life. Under the full moon, they realized they were fated mates and gave in to a steamy one-night stand, never seeing each other’s face. At dawn, she woke alone, told she meant nothing by a man posing as her mate’s subordinate. Shattered, Amber returned to the Palace and agreed to the contract marriage her father had been demanding—to Axel Edgewood, the Alpha she’d never met. But when Axel walked into the room, Amber’s world tilted. He was the wolf from the forest. Her mate. The man who’d thrown her away. And he didn’t recognize her because of her hidden identity. But she did him. Axel had spent his life fulfilling duty. Now, bound by a curse, he stood across from a Princess he didn’t want and proposed a one-year contract marriage. Fulfill their duty, then walk away. For Amber, one year was freedom from the man she hated. For Axel, one year to find the mate he’d lost. Neither expected the curse to demand more than a contract. Or for the secrets between them to tear the Realm apart—hers is a ticking clock she doesn’t know exists, his is a darkness that kills without mercy. One year. One contract. One impossible truth. What happens when the mate you’re searching for is the wife you’re trying to escape? And when the man you’re running from is the only one who can keep you alive?
