Mermaid Zodiac Signs

My younger sister was crazy about novels and always envied the way ordinary heroines pick up penniless heroes and climb the social ladder. So, she started picking up men wherever she could. Until one day, a man with a face covered in sores collapsed at our doorstep. I instantly recognized the signs of syphilis and warned my sister repeatedly, and only then did she give up the idea. However, fate had other plans: my sister's best friend "picked him up" instead and married into a wealthy family. My sister held a grudge. On my birthday, she locked me in my room and set it on fire. No matter how desperately I begged, she refused to open the door. Outside, she sneered: "I know you're just scared I'll live better than you, so you want to drag me down into misery with you. People like you don't even deserve to be a sister!" I burned alive, my body reduced to nothing but ashes. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day my sister insisted on "picking up that man." This time, I quietly stepped back, letting her have her way—of course, I chose to let her succeed.

On the night her marriage ends, Elena Valez signs the divorce papers without defending herself. Lucian Moretti—billionaire CEO and heir to a powerful empire—believes she betrayed him. Missing company funds. Secret meetings. A hotel record under her name. The evidence is undeniable. And Elena refuses to explain. What Lucian doesn’t know is that the money was never stolen… it was moved to uncover a truth that could destroy his family. What he doesn’t know is that she walked into his office that night to tell him something that would change everything. She’s pregnant. Seven weeks. Carrying the child doctors once told Lucian he could never have. Before she can decide whether to tell him, his father steps in with a chilling ultimatum: disappear and raise the baby in silence—or Lucian will be made to believe the child isn’t his. Now divorced, pregnant, and targeted by the powerful Moretti family, Elena must choose between protecting her unborn child and exposing a secret that could bring an empire to its knees. But when Lucian begins to suspect that the truth is far more complicated than betrayal, old love ignites into something far more dangerous. Because some divorces don’t end love. They start a war. And this time, the secret she carries isn’t just a child. It’s the key to everything.

On her fifth wedding anniversary, Mireille Rousseau dies in a staged car accident orchestrated by her billionaire husband Damon Kessler and his mistress Vivienne Marchetti. She opens her eyes the morning before her wedding — twenty-two years old, every memory intact, and one single objective: burn it all down before it begins. She rejects Damon publicly at the altar. She signs a contract marriage with Nikolai Voss — the cold, ruthless CEO her ex-husband destroyed in her previous life. She gives Nikolai the one thing money cannot buy: she already knows every move Damon is going to make. What begins as a pure transaction slowly becomes something neither of them planned for. Nikolai watches Mireille dismantle a man who once buried her and he cannot look away. Mireille watches Nikolai step into every battle beside her without being asked and she cannot explain what that does to her. Meanwhile Damon Kessler is unraveling. She is not grieving. She is not chasing him. She is not the woman he built his entire plan around. And the more he reaches for her the more he loses — his company, his reputation, his carefully constructed empire — and he begins to understand too late that he never actually knew what he had.

“The agreement won’t be valid unless your husband signs it, ma’am.” The lawyer shot me a dismissive glance as I signed my name. “I know you’d like to use this as a way to flirt with your husband.
