“You loved me at my worst so you deserve me at my best.” Unrequited love hurts but what hurts even more is when the person you love with all your being is in love with your best friend. And what hurts even worse is when your Best friend slaps the truth right in your face that your man has been in love with her all along and you are nothing but just a second choice. As important as a rock on the street. No one should ever go through this. But Serena wasn't that lucky. To get revenge on Shanice Cooper- the queen bee of High Central- Asher Carter begins dating Serena Adams- Shanice's best friend. Serena, who is deeply in love with Asher, fails to notice his ulterior motive and keeps falling for him even more. It takes her 7 long years to know she was just a pawn in his game. But 7 years is long enough to change the game. It was all supposed to be just a game, but Asher couldn’t help himself falling for this innocent girl. He didn't realise when she became the center of his world. When did she become so important? So much that he bent the sky and moved the world only to see her smile. He became the richest man on earth only so that his woman lived like a Queen. He thought he was in love, but what he felt for Serena Adams was far more intense than he had felt for anyone ever. It was straight madness. But what happens when his first choice returns? The question is would Asher go back to her or would he, this time, protect his marriage? And what will happen when Serena finds out the truth- will she stay or leave him?

Ang kasal ay dapat na simbolo ng wagas na pag-ibig, ngunit para kina Ethan Blackwood at Ava Morales, ito ay isang selyadong kontrata ng mga nakatagong intensyon. Sa isang lihim na seremonya, nagpalitan sila ng sumpa na walang ibang saksi kundi ang kanilang mga pansariling agenda. Si Ethan, ang makapangyarihang tagapagmana, ay nagpakasal lamang upang takasan ang arranged marriage na pinipilit ng kanyang mga magulang kay Sophia. Sa kabilang banda, si Ava ay pumasok sa buhay ni Ethan dala ang isang madilim na misyon: na tuklasin ang katotohanan sa likod ng misteryosong pagkamatay ng kanyang ama, na pinaniniwalaan nilang may madugong kaugnayan sa pamilyang Blackwood. Sa simula, ang lahat ay purong negosyo at kontrata. Ang dating pagpapanggap ay nauwi sa totoong nararamdaman; nahulog ang loob ni Ethan sa katapangan ni Ava, habang si Ava naman ay nagsimulang malunod sa pagmamahal ng lalaking dapat sana ay kanyang kaaway. Subalit ang kanilang marupok na kaligayahan ay agad niyanig ng mga lihim ng nakaraan. Habang pilit na ipinaglalaban ni Ava ang katarungan, pinili naman ni Ethan na tumayo sa panig ng katotohanan upang iligtas ang kanilang relasyon, kahit pa ang kapalit nito ay ang pagbagsak ng sarili niyang pamilya. Hindi pa doon nagtatapos ang paghihirap. Ang ina ni Ethan na si Victoria ay naglunsad ng isang maruming plano upang sirain ang dangal ni Ava. Ginamit niya ang pinsan ni Ethan na si Lucas upang palabasin na may lihim na relasyon ang dalawa. Kasabwat ang selosang si Sophia, kumukuha sila ng mga huwad na ebidensya upang pilitin ang isang masakit na diborsyo sa pagitan ng mag-asawa. Ngayong nakabaon na sila sa rurok ng traydor at kasinungalingan, paano haharapin ni Ethan at Ava ang katotohanang bawat isa sa kanila ay biktima ng sarili nilang mga lihim? Magpapatuloy pa kaya ang pinaglalaban na relasyon?

My alpha mate Damien had no idea that I'd been secretly in love with him for seven years. The day his first love Sofia ran away from their mating ceremony, I put on the wedding dress and took Luna's place without hesitation. Despite everyone's dissuasion, I insisted on mating to the devastated man. After mating, he was incredibly caring and thoughtful, remembering every anniversary. I thought he'd finally fallen in love with me. Until the day his first love returned, all my illusions were shattered. When the rogue wolves attacked, he left me behind without hesitation to save Sofia: "She's not as strong as you. She needs me." This time, I didn't stop him. I simply severed our mate bond and leave our Pack. But why was this Alpha, who deeply loved Sofia, frantically searching the world for me?

After his fated mate died, Alpha Killian Thorne spent ten years resenting me. I was the Omega healer he never chose—bound to him by duty, not love. A substitute. A scar on a bond neither of us asked for. No matter how deeply I healed his wounds, no matter how quietly I stayed by his side, all he ever said was: “If you really want to please me, Clara… then disappear.” But when death came charging, it wasn’t I who fell. He did. Bleeding out in my arms, Killian looked at me one last time and whispered: “If only I’d never met you…” At the funeral, his mother wept. “He should’ve been with Selena. I never should’ve let him mate with you.” His father’s glare cut through me. “Killian saved you three times. Why wasn’t it you in that grave?” Everyone regretted that he had bonded with me. Even I did, too. I was cast out of the pack with nothing— No title. No Luna severance. No den to call my own. And then… perhaps the Moon Goddess took pity on me. She gave me one final chance to rewrite fate. This time, I won’t beg for his love. This time, I won’t tether him to pain. This time, I’ll sever the bond before it begins. I could already hear the gears of fate turning, and this time, I would move first.

My wedding would be perfect if Sean Ackles had never be around. Sean is the meanest man I've ever meet. Until one day, he ruined my life with Harvey Ackles, his own brother.

Billionaire heiress Julia Wilson had come to loathe Christmas. Five years ago, it had shattered her life when she walked in on her husband, Ryan Thompson, in what appeared to be a compromising position with his secretary. The heartbreak had forced her into premature labor. By the time her twins, Lucien and Olivia, were born, she’d signed the divorce papers, severing ties with the man she once loved. Ever since, Julia buried her pain behind an iron-clad business persona, working herself and her employees to the bone every holiday season to escape the memories of her ruined Christmas. For Ryan Thompson, Christmas was no easier. A top-tier lawyer and businessman infamous for his undefeated courtroom record, Ryan’s victories felt hollow compared to the loss of his family. A misunderstanding had cost him his wife and the chance to watch his twins grow. For five years, he’d kept his distance, silently watching over Julia and their children, waiting for the right time to make amends and reclaim what he had lost. A chance encounter with a stranger leads him to his family’s doorstep, dressed as Santa Claus. Will Julia slam the door in his face, or will she accept him for the sake of their children? Can they rekindle their love and fulfill the twins’ Christmas wish, or will their relationship burn in the wake of his betrayal? What Julia doesn’t know is that fate—or perhaps the twins’ clever planning—has something else in store.
