Lady In-waiting

Aaron Hale has survived on grit, secrets, and nightlife shifts in an East L.A. club—never knowing the owner watching him from the shadows is Zayden Blackwell, a powerful man whose obsession runs deeper than lust. Months before Aaron ever notices him, Zayden secretly buys the club, manipulates shifts and tips, and even pays Bianca—Aaron’s first love—to break his heart, all to push him into accepting a mysterious job at his mansion. But Zayden isn’t the only shadow tied to Aaron. Slate, Zayden’s cold half-brother, once saved Aaron’s life during a kidnapping attempt Zayden himself orchestrated years ago. Slate was meant to “manage” Aaron in the mansion, not fall for him, but his forbidden desire grows uncontrollably. Inside the mansion, Aaron discovers a locked room filled with photos and belongings of himself—Zayden’s collection—and a drawer of secret notes from Slate, revealing his own obsession. A staff member reports Aaron’s every move to an unknown enemy, while a hidden safe shows Zayden prepared legal documents to control Aaron’s entire future. A mysterious texter warns: “He’s lying to you. Both of them are.” At the mansion’s deadly climax event, Aaron flips the psychological game—forcing Zayden to surrender the control he’s never given anyone.

Kabado akong sumiksik sa ilalim ng kama ko... Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayari sa baba, pero naririnig ko ang pag-iyak ng aking ina. "M-master... maawa po kayo... wala pa po talaga akong pambayad sa utang ko..." Aniya ng aking ama, nanginginig ang boses, habang umiiyak. Napatakip ako sa aking bibig nang biglang bumukas nang malakas ang pinto ng kwarto. Nakita ko ang makintab na black shoes na marahan humahakbang sa sahig... nakita kong hinawakan nito ang picture frame na nakapatong sa drawer ko. Maya-maya, binitawan niya iyon at umikot sa kabilang side ng kwarto. Pinigil ko ang paghinga ko, halos gusto kong mawala sa paligid. Mahigpit kong niyakap ang munting teddy bear na iniregalo pa sakin ng aking ama noong 12th birthday ko... pero agad akong napatili nang may marahas na humila ng paa ko palabas sa pinagtataguan ko.

WARNING MATURE CONTENT !!! "I thought I'd never get to kiss you again. Never in a million years did I think I'll get to taste you, or fuck you madly in this bed we've always shared. God, I want you so bad it hurts." My mouth moves hard against hers, her tongue down in my throat, and my fingers rubbing hard against her throbbing clit. "Then have me, Luke." It feels unreal, like a dream. But no, it's no dream... I'm about to fuck my best friend.

She married him to save her family. He married her to destroy it. When Aria Whitmore agrees to a contract marriage, she knows exactly what she’s giving up her freedom, her dreams, and any hope for love. Her father’s debts have grown into a shadow too large to escape, and this union is the only way to keep her family from ruin. She steps into the arrangement with quiet courage, prepared for a cold, distant life. Lucien Ashford, on the other hand, has been waiting for this moment. Feared, powerful, and untouchable, Lucien built his empire on control and calculated decisions. But beneath his success lies a past marked by betrayal. To him, Aria isn’t innocent she is the daughter of the man who destroyed everything he once loved. Marrying her is not a coincidence. It’s revenge, carefully planned and long overdue. From the very beginning, Aria can feel the hostility behind his composed exterior. Every interaction is laced with tension, every silence filled with unspoken intent. Yet, she refuses to be broken by him. Her quiet strength, her resilience, and the unexpected warmth she carries begin to disrupt the walls Lucien has spent years building. Because hatred was supposed to be easy. But it isn’t. As time passes, stolen glances turn into lingering moments, and resentment slowly gives way to something far more dangerous. Lucien begins to see Aria not as his enemy’s daughter, but as a woman who challenges him, understands him, and awakens something he thought was long gone. Now, he faces an impossible truth: The woman he intended to use… may be the only one who can heal him.

TRIGGER WARNING: This book contains violence, explicit words and sex. Some words and scenes might not be liked or can trigger some readers. Reader's discretion is advised. Caia Lilith Herald suffered tormenting abuse in her own father's hand, making her grow up weak and timid. She even had no wolf to begin with. Even her seven-year long fiancé never came to see her once that she started to believe how useless and unloved she was. However, one day, her fiance, Darkus Loiu Dark- the blood-lust alpha feared by everyone, just came to abduct her, saying it's about time he claim what should have been his. "I know you despise me so much that you kept refusing to marry a rogue man like me, Caia. But I won't let any other man have you. I own you. I patiently waited for seven years just to have you. And I think, it's about time I make you completely mine." What?! She refused him?! When did she refuse him? When all these years, she had been waiting for him like a fool, waiting until he came to save her from this misery. But now, it's even her fault?! What's happening?! This book is a sequel of my first book "The Unwanted Luna Goddess". It revolves around the story of Ruan and Kaliyah's son, Prince Darkus Loui Dark.

The entire ward could hear the thoughts of the beautiful intern nurse, Sonya Row. When a patient kept vomiting nonstop, and I suggested increasing the pain medication, she stood nearby, sighing. [What should I do? Should I tell the family this painkiller can be addictive and really bad for the body? If they just wait a few more minutes, he'll recover on his own. There's no need to spend money at all.] The room fell silent in an instant. Everyone's gaze shifted toward me, and the family quietly refused my treatment plan. After that, I became the joke of the entire department. Every patient specifically asked not to be assigned to me. Later, while comforting a terminal stomach cancer patient, I followed her family's wishes and lied, saying it was just gastritis. Sonya complained about it in her thoughts. [The patient's practically dying already, but she's still saying she can be cured. It's obviously just to trick this old woman into draining her life savings on treatment.] That night, the old lady jumped off the building so she wouldn't burden her family. Her family thought I had revealed the truth and driven her to her death. They reported me directly to the hospital director, and I was stripped of my position as department head. Then, on a holiday weekend, the hospital admitted a pregnant woman with a suspected amniotic fluid embolism. To save her life, I had no choice but to remove her uterus. At that moment, Sonya's thoughts rang out again. [She doesn't have an amniotic fluid embolism at all. She was on her phone during surgery, which caused this. Now look what happened. This baby's a girl. This family wanted a son, and now they'll never get one.] The family attacked me on the spot, recorded it, and posted the video online to harass me. The desperate husband, obsessed with having a son, stabbed me to death to vent his rage. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Sonya first revealed her thoughts. This time, I could hear her thoughts, too.
