Jonathan Bennett Bulge Novels & Stories

Amara Bennett’s life is falling apart. Buried in debt and struggling to care for her sick younger brother, the last thing she expects is to cross paths with Damien Blackwood, the cold and dangerously powerful billionaire everyone fears. But after accidentally witnessing a violent confrontation in a private hallway of the luxury hotel where she works, Amara becomes trapped in Damien’s world of secrets, wealth, and hidden danger. To keep her close and silent, Damien offers her a contract: Pretend to be his fiancée for six months in exchange for enough money to save her brother’s life. Simple. Temporary. Strictly business. At least, that was the plan. Because beneath Damien’s ruthless reputation lies something far darker than Amara imagined. Strange threats begin surrounding her, powerful enemies seem desperate to destroy Damien, and the deeper she falls into his luxurious nightmare, the more she realizes the billionaire is hiding dangerous truths connected to disappearances, corruption… and blood. Living inside Blackwood Manor exposes Amara to a world she never belonged to. Lavish galas, whispered secrets, locked rooms, and enemies hiding behind designer smiles become part of her new reality. Yet the closer she gets to Damien, the more she sees cracks beneath his icy exterior. He is possessive, dangerously protective, and haunted by a past he refuses to explain. Now Amara must decide if the man protecting her is also the man capable of destroying her. But in a world where love and obsession look dangerously alike, walking away from Damien Blackwood may be the most impossible thing she’s ever tried to do.

Aria Bennett never believed in the supernatural. To her, the world was simple… college classes, late-night study sessions, and quiet walks through the woods near her campus whenever life became overwhelming. One night, that walk changes everything. After wandering too far into a forest she has never seen before, Aria unknowingly crosses into territory that does not belong to humans. Within minutes she is surrounded by wolves… massive, terrifying creatures that should not exist. But the real shock comes when the wolves shift into men. Kael Nightfang, Rowan Vale, and Dante Moreau are the three Alpha heirs who rule the territory together. Feared across every pack in the region, the men share power and loyalty. Yet nothing could prepare them for the moment they catch Aria’s scent. Mate. The word slams into their instincts all at once. But the Moon Goddess has made a mistake… because the fragile girl standing in front of them is human. Now the three powerful Alphas find themselves drawn to the same woman, their wolves demanding they claim her while their minds battle the impossible bond between them. Kael, the dominant leader, refuses to share what should belong to him alone. Rowan, the calm strategist, suspects Aria’s presence may mean something far greater. And Dante, reckless and dangerously charming, is more than willing to fight both men for her heart. Caught in a world she never knew existed, Aria must survive pack politics, jealous she-wolves, and the growing tension between the three powerful men who want her. Because loving one Alpha is dangerous. But being the mate of three? That could start a war.

Elena Bennett, the illegitimate daughter of the Bennetts, was never supposed to matter. The unwanted daughter of a powerful family, hidden away like a dirty secret. But one night—one reckless, alcohol-soaked night—changed everything. Elias Vanguard, billionaire bad boy, notorious womanizer, and a man with enough family drama to sink an empire. Their drunken encounter becomes front-page news, and suddenly, they’re both drowning in a scandal neither of them wants. His solution? A fake marriage to clean up his reputation. Her motivation? The chance to finally claw her way out of the shadows and show everyone who they messed with. But playing house with a man who treats her like dirt wasn't part of the fantasy. Elias brings home his mistresses like it’s nothing, and with every insult, Elena’s heart cracks a little more. Until one day, he shoves divorce papers at her—because his precious mistress is supposedly pregnant. Elena signs the papers, disappears, and rebuilds herself from the ashes. Five years later, she’s a tech powerhouse, running the biggest company in the States, raising her son alone. Meanwhile, Elias is down on his luck, crippled from an accident, and abandoned by everyone he thought he could trust. When fate brings their worlds crashing together again, Elias isn’t the man he used to be. And Elena? Well, she’s the woman he should’ve never let go. But with betrayal, heartbreak, and an empire of her own to protect, forgiveness isn’t on her list of priorities. He wants her back. But this time, Elena's playing by her own rules.

After the car accident, one of the Laurent heiresses has died, while the other lives. The moment my religious wife, Amelia Laurent, opens her eyes in the hospital, she addresses me as her brother-in-law. Then, she claims that her older sister, Penelope Laurent's soul has possessed her body. I quickly get all the doctors and priests I can find, hoping to swap Penelope's soul out for Amelia's. That is, until I overhear Amelia's conversation with our daughter, Charlotte Robinson, at night. "Mom, you've had a crush on Uncle Samuel for so many years, and you've even gone into abstinence by staying in the monastery for years. Now, you can finally be with him in the open." Amelia pats Charlotte on the head. "If it wasn't for the need to prevent your father from ruining Samuel's relationship back then, I wouldn't have married your father in the first place." As I struggle to register the truth from the shadows, I witness what happens next after Charlotte leaves the ward. Amelia, who has always prided herself on her composure and restraint; who has practiced abstinence for seven long years for the sake of her religion, proceeds to be physically intimate with Samuel Bennett—a fresh widower—on the cramped hospital bed. The next day, I apply for Amelia's death certificate immediately before burning our marriage certificate. On the day Amelia throws a grand proposal banquet for Samuel, I board the helicopter that has flown over to pick me up. But strangely enough, Amelia tears through the streets while chasing after the helicopter.

Claire Shaw, my wife of 27 years and I had already fallen out of love with each other. Having picked up on that fact, our children, Jason and Monica Bennett, started giving me advice. "Dad, you and Mom are still relatively young. You two deserve to continue pursuing the lives you want." "That's right, Dad. You can't just force a marriage to go on. We support you in getting a divorce." With Jason and Monica's support, Claire and I soon got divorced. Monica took it upon herself to introduce another woman to me. Soon, I began a new relationship. But when I was about to get married, Claire took me to court and accused me of cheating on her while we were still married. Jason and Monica showed up at the court trial as witnesses as well. They proved that I had indeed cheated on Claire in our marriage. I couldn't defend myself at all. In the end, I was forced to give up everything I owned. My new girlfriend, Linda Calcraft, and I were heavily targeted by the entire Internet. "Hey, old geezer! Just how shameless are you to look for a mistress when you're already dying?" "You're already old enough to become a grandfather, and yet you're still filing for a divorce? You and that mistress are better off together!" Some extremists strapped me and Linda to the bed. They dumped gasoline all over us before setting us on fire, leading to our deaths. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Jason and Monica try to convince me to get a divorce.

One night was all it was ever meant to be, a reckless moment between Aria Bennett and a man far beyond her world, yet what he treated as something forgettable became the turning point of her life, because while he walked away without hesitation and chose a woman of his own status and power, Aria was left behind with heartbreak and a truth he never stayed long enough to discover, forcing her to rebuild her life alone while carrying the weight of a secret tied to the man who never looked back. Years later, Aria is no longer the same woman he left behind, as she has grown into someone stronger, guarded, and completely in control of her life, someone who no longer waits to be chosen and who has learned to hide everything that once made her vulnerable, but when fate brings her back into his world, the past refuses to stay buried and the balance of power begins to shift, because the man who once dismissed her now sees her in a way he cannot ignore, and what he once overlooked slowly turns into something he cannot escape. Regret begins to take hold as he is drawn to her with an intensity he cannot control, yet the closer he gets, the more he senses that Aria is hiding something far deeper than the pain he caused, something that threatens to change everything he thought he knew about that night, while Aria refuses to become his second choice again, holding onto the life she built without him even as the truth edges closer to being revealed, a truth that could force him to face the full consequences of walking away from the one woman he should have never lost.

On the day of my twenty-first birthday, I posted online: [I want a lollipop.] My childhood rival, who was overseas, dropped everything there and flew back. He showered and showed up at my doorstep. I vowed to savor lollipops more carefully from then on—they were simply too sweet. From that moment, even after I was exposed as a fake heiress, everyone in high society knew: Jonathan Chase wanted to marry me. When the Sterling family carried out their harsh punishment, the hundred lashes meant for me were almost entirely taken by him—ninety-nine of them, borne by his own body. When they locked me in the basement, with darkness closing in from all sides, his shouts each day became my only light. "Chloe, don't be afraid. I'll get you out," he promised. And he did. He really saved me. He also made me witness, with my own eyes, his magnificent wedding to the true heiress. The man who once couldn't bear to make me wait had, "for my sake", told me to wait three times. The first time was on his wedding day. Pain was etched into every line of his face. "Chloe, if I don't marry Eleanor, they'll never let you go. Wait for me for three years. Three years from now, I'll marry you." The second time was three years later. He looked at Eleanor's rounded belly, hesitation written all over his face. "Chloe… she's carrying my child. You'll have to wait a little longer." The third time was just yesterday. I was just a step away from his kid. He pushed me violently to the floor, his face tight with warning. "Chloe, can't you just wait? Why do you have to take it out on a kid?" Sunlight fell across the face that once loved me, now stripped of all its former warmth. "If that's how it is… then maybe it's time for me to leave too." I said inwardly.

Falling for the school's star goalie was never the plan... especially when my father is the principal who just banned him from the ice. But getting caught in a scandal with the boy I'm supposed to 'fix'? That's more than a catastrophe; it's a death sentence. Aria Bennett is a top student with perfect grades but no social life. She is assigned to tutor the school's newest transfer student, Jason Monroe. However, Jason is consistently late to their sessions, cocky, and resistant to being told what to do. Aria just wants to get the tutoring over with. Things take a turn when she discovers that Jason is on academic probation and risks losing his spot as the goalie on the hockey team. This revelation softens Aria's perspective on him. As their late-night tutoring sessions become a regular occurrence, Aria starts to see the vulnerabilities behind Jason's tough exterior. Meanwhile, Jason never intended to develop feelings for the girl who dresses in oversized hoodies and carries notebooks. Yet, somehow, Aria is getting under his skin and possibly into his heart. "Does Daddy know you're at a party full of hot hockey players and drinking beer?" "Leave me alone," I spat. Jason grinned slyly and leaned in closer. "You know I heard you dressed up thinking you were going on a date, and the guy turned out to be gay." In a drunken stumble, Jason stepped too close and fell on top of me. Jason's eyes fluttered open slightly as he cupped my face. I froze. His hands were warm against my skin, but rational thought fled me. He gave me a look that screamed trouble. And just as I suspected, he leaned in and kissed my lips. My brain had completely shut down. It was my first kiss.
