It Is With Deep Regret

For a man whom she has spent 7 years with, married for 3, infertility was enough for him to cast her aside, replacing her with his mistress whom was already pregnant. But maybe getting cast aside was a blessing in disguise, Elisa returns home to regain her rightful place as the heiress of the Gilbert's house, and what follows after is the continuous regret of her Ex-husband. After all, the saying goes this way: You don't know the value of what you have until you lose it.

Noel has always been too much—too loud, too bold and too unapologetically gay. When his life is shattered by those meant to protect him, he does what any queen would: survives, slays, and keeps his mouth sharper than his eyeliner. Enter Beaufort Sterling, everything Noel despises—rich, perfect and straighter than boiled spaghetti. Fortunately for them, the hate is mutual; unfortunately for them, the dorm master doesn’t care. Beaufort Sterling is everything Noel can’t be: ‘perfect’. He is the ideal golden boy to boost his father’s image in the upcoming campaign, and what better way than to spend a semester in the sponsored dorm rooms with the school's version of a token black kid to show how wonderful the university’s facilities are? Can the perfect golden boy keep his name glitter-free when hateful sparks turn into fireworks?

“Rule #1: Don’t fall for the roommate. Rule #2: Seriously, don’t fall for the roommate.” *** After an incident that shattered her confidence, Phoenix wants nothing more than to disappear. So, when her twin brother makes her a crazy, bizarre but deliciously sinful offer, she slips on a uniform and takes her place as his twin ‘brother’ at Harrison Park Academy — a chance to restart and feel in control, just until she feels okay again. But HPA has its own rules—and none of them account for bathroom phobias, shared dorms, or accidentally locking eyes with your ridiculously attractive new roommate. Justice is intense, loyal, and way too perceptive for her comfort. Worst of all? He’s the one person she can’t seem to avoid… or stop thinking about. He’s just irritating enough to make her blood boil. But he’s also kind in the quietest ways, and she’s falling, fast. Now Phoenix is navigating locker room close calls, midnight showers, secret crushes, late-night parties with their sister all-girls’ school across the lake and an escalating rivalry between the athletes and the academic elite. Her lies are stacking higher than her jump shots, and with each game, the stakes get heavier. Everyone thinks she’s just another boy chasing a spot on the team. But she’s playing for more than victory. She’s playing to feel like herself again. She’s playing to forget what happened last year. And if anyone finds out who she really is, it won’t just be her cover that’s blown— it’ll be her entire world. Phoenix is one step away from getting exposed. And when you’re living a lie? One wrong move is all it takes to lose the game. How long can she keep playing it straight?

When the criminal tortured me to death, I was three-month pregnant. But my husband Mark - the city's most prominent detective - was at the hospital with his first love Emma, accompanying her for her medical checkup. Three days ago, he demanded me to donate my kidney to Emma. When I refused, telling him I was two months pregnant with our child, his eyes had turned cold. "Stop lying," he had snarled. "You're just being selfish, trying to let Emma die." He pulled over on the dark highway. "Get out," he ordered. "Walk home since you're so heartless. " I stood there in the darkness and was kidnapped by the vengeful criminal, whom Mark had once imprisoned. He cut out my tongue. With cruel satisfaction, he used my phone to call my husband. Mark's response was brief and cold: "Whatever it is, Emma's medical checkup is more important! She needs me right now." The criminal let out a dark chuckle. "Well, well... Seems like the great detective values his ex's life more than his current wife's." When Mark arrived at the crime scene hours later, he was horrified by the brutality inflicted on the corpse. He angrily condemned the murderer for treating a pregnant woman so cruelly But he didn't recognize that the mutilated body before him was his own wife - me.

All my life I've been waiting for my mate. I never thought he would turn out to be my boss. I’m his secretary by day, but his secret lover by night. That’s been our status quo for four years now. He says an Alpha in his position must maintain his reputation. “My family’s honor is my greatest privilege,” he once said to me. Honor might keep Emeric Garvalle from claiming me properly as his. But it sure doesn’t stop him from devouring me during our weekly hookups. Nor does it stop him from locking his office door behind us and bending me over his big mahogany desk whenever he feels so inclined. Most of the time, Emeric is nothing but cold to me. But he’s like a different person in bed, where he can’t get enough of me. A secretary with benefits. That’s all he wants me to be.

Lila Anderson n’était qu’une jeune femme pleine de rêves et d’amour lorsqu’elle fut accusée d’un crime qu’elle n’avait pas commis. Trahie, brisée, et injustement condamnée, elle passe trois longues années derrière les barreaux. Son seul tort ? Avoir aimé Dante Whitemore, l’héritier d’un empire impitoyable, sans jamais chercher autre chose que son cœur. À sa sortie de prison, Lila est méconnaissable. Brisée mais toujours digne malgré les humiliations qu’elle endure. Ce qu’elle ignore, c’est que le destin s’apprête à la replonger dans les ténèbres qu’elle croyait avoir laissées derrière elle. Car Dante est de retour. Lorsqu’il la revoit, il ne reconnaît pas celle qu’il avait jadis tant méprisée. Sa présence l’obsède, l’énerve, le trouble. Il croit encore qu’elle l’a trahi… Mais peu à peu, chaque regard, chaque mot, chaque silence fissure ses certitudes. Ce qu’il ne sait pas encore, c’est qu’il est lui-même la proie d’un mensonge bien plus vaste, ourdi par Elena Moreau — la rivale cachée, manipulatrice élégante aux allures d’ange, qui depuis l’enfance rêve de devenir la femme de Dante. Une rivalité invisible, mais cruelle, qui aura détruit des vies pour mieux dissimuler la vérité. Entre haine, passion, vengeance et rédemption, Dante devra affronter ses fautes et faire tomber les masques. Mais Lila, elle, peut-elle encore lui faire confiance ? Peut-on reconstruire l’amour sur les cendres du mépris ? Et que fera Jason Stuart, l’ami fidèle devenu rival silencieux, lorsqu’il comprendra qu’il aime celle qu’il ne pourra jamais vraiment avoir ? Un amour détruit par la trahison. Un pardon plus dur que la prison. Une reconquête à haut prix. Et une femme qui, cette fois, ne se laissera plus briser.

"What are you doing? You’re not supposed to remember." My voice trembled as he smirked, fingers sliding into my hair, tugging just enough to make me gasp. "You’re my wife, Eve."

a heavy burden that I carried for nine long years. It was hard to admit to myself that Carlos Sky never really loved me, despite all the efforts I made to win him over. I even tried to use the divorce and the company he owned, Sky Corporation, as a way to bargain for him to give me attention and love. But he remained indifferent, insensitive to my feelings and my desperate attempts to win him over. It was a moment of great sadness and disappointment when I realized that he never cared about me in the same way that I cared about him. After the divorce, I had time to reflect on what happened and finally realized that the so-called "love" I felt for Carlos Sky was one-sided. I had deluded myself for years, believing that he loved me, when in reality he never showed this feeling for me. The hardest thing was to admit to myself that I loved someone who never loved me back. It was painful to face the reality that all the time, effort, and energy I put into this relationship was for nothing. Learning to let go of this unrequited love and move on with my life was a difficult journey, but necessary for my own emotional health and well-being. Today, I look back with a mixture of sadness and relief. It was a difficult experience, but I also learned a lot about myself and the true meaning of love. I learned that true love is mutual, it involves reciprocity and respect. It is not something that can be forced or won through negotiations.
