On the same day I was admitted into the hospital for my pregnancy, my husband, Charles Page, received 108 missed calls on his phone. It was from Sue, his mentee, a girl who had cancer. I asked if he was going to pick up, and he replied impatiently, "All she does is call me all day! Doesn't she have any other family? She's so annoying." Later, that very girl posted a photo of herself on the hospital rooftop, wearing a white dress. The caption said: [If I jump down from here, will I become a butterfly in my next life? Maybe then, everyone won't hate me.] Charles only glanced at the post before chuckling mockingly. "What does she mean, turn into a butterfly? Is she delusional?" But after that, he grew visibly restless, before rushing out and not returning all night. That night, I hemorrhaged and was taken into emergency care. When the nurse asked if I wanted to keep the baby, I looked at the empty space beside me and answered calmly. "No, I don't."

I was six months pregnant when my husband, Michael Greene, shoved me off the edge of a yacht during a birthday party. Why? Because Lily Clement, his childhood sweetheart, had fallen into the water, and apparently, the yacht was too small for all three of us. After being pulled from the ocean, suffering from hypothermia and shock, I was taken to the hospital. Doctors determined that emergency surgery was necessary and required a family member's consent. However, no matter how many times they called, Michael never picked up. At the same time, lying in a hospital bed, I scrolled through Lily’s Instagram and saw the post she shared just hours earlier. It was a photo of the two of them, soaked but clinging to each other like lovers out of a movie. "Sometimes love comes from the most unexpected places. Thank you for always being there for me—quietly, selflessly, unshakably." That was all I needed. The day I was discharged, I left Michael a signed divorce agreement. If he wanted to be her knight in shining armor, I’d let him.

Rey Jhon Zialcita, a gay young man, once worked as the babysitter of Gabriella Chan—a spoiled girl who don't know how to cut onions because she always got everything she wanted. The only person who knew his secret was Gabriella because she once caught him kissing a photo of a man and even asked him straight out if he was a gay. Everything went fine with his job as her babysitter not until Gabriella’s debut party. That night, Rey Jhon gave in to temptation. He thought things were turning out the way he had always imagined. But reality was far from perfect. After that, he went away, searching for answers to the questions that troubled him. When he finally found them and came back to Gabriella but it only led to more pain. He should have known there was a problem waiting to be uncovered. But when he finally discovered the truth, it was far bigger and more heartbreaking than he ever expected. Now the question is—will he be able to win in the end?

Le soir de Noël, j'avais préparé un somptueux dîner, mais minuit a sonné sans que mon mari, Sylvain Naudé, ne rentre à la maison. Ma fille m'a tendu son téléphone : « Maman, regarde… Papa est chez cette femme ! » Sur les réseaux sociaux, Sylvain avait publié une photo où il échangeait un sourire complice avec Céline, son amie d'enfance. Entre eux se tenait un enfant d'une dizaine d'années, et devant eux trônait un gâteau en forme de cygne blanc. La légende disait : « En ce jour si spécial, avec vous, les plus précieux. » Mon cœur a sombré. Six ans d'amour n'avaient pas suffi à rivaliser avec des liens tissés depuis l'enfance. D'accord, j'acceptais ma défaite.

"Find that woman and kill her immediately! Don't let the FBI get her first!" Arash Dilaver became a target of the Turkish FBI after information about his organisation's crimes was leaked. One of these crimes was the murder of the mayoral candidate of Izmir, Turkey—Ekram Aldof. On the other hand, Arash is also aggressively searching for the nephew of the mayor he is going to kill, because rumours say that the nephew, named Shahnas, holds documents about his organisation. Worried that they will fall into the hands of the FBI, Arash does not sit idly by and continues to search for the woman based on the last photo taken when she came to the parliament building and demanded her inheritance rights from her uncle. In the midst of his search, Arash accidentally meets a veiled woman he knows as Mazaya. The woman, who is skilled in martial arts, helped him and seemed very mysterious, and one of them was reluctant to meet strangers. This made Arash curious, and he tried to approach Mazaya while searching for Shahnas. *** Can Arash find Shahnaz? And also get close to Mazaya, the mysterious woman?

Four years ago, Ellie Harper walked away from Damien Calder because loving him felt like disappearing inside his life. She had slowly reshaped herself around him, rejecting opportunities, prioritizing his schedule, and losing the creative ambition that once defined her. Terrified she would become “Damien Calder’s girlfriend” instead of herself, she left the only man who ever made her feel truly seen. Now, a leaked paparazzi photo has turned them into public obsession and triggered a scandal threatening both Ellie’s career and Damien’s empire. With limited options, Ellie agrees to Damien’s solution: a temporary contract marriage designed to control the damage before it destroys them both. But moving back into his orbit reopens every buried wound: old rituals, dangerous chemistry, and the terrifying realization that the safest emotional home she has ever known may still consume her. Because the real question is no longer whether the marriage is fake. It is whether they can love each other without one of them disappearing.

In my tenth year of marriage, my old childhood friend, Joshua Sears, posts a photo on social media. Both Joshua and my wife, Sabrina Lawson, are hugging his son, Andy Sears, and my daughter, Tiana Jenkins, in it. The four of them look very close to each other. The caption accompanying the post says, "Blessed to have the perfect son and daughter." I leave a comment below the post, saying, "Looking good together." A few seconds later, the post is deleted. The next morning, Sabrina rushes home and yells at me. "Ashton Jenkins! Joshua was finally feeling better for once. Why did you have to trigger him again?" Tiana shoves me hard and snaps in an accusatory tone, "It's all your fault that Andy's crying now!" I take out a copy of the divorce agreement and slam it down before them. "Yes, it's all my fault. That's why I'm stepping out of the picture now. Then, the four of you can form the wholesome family you've always wanted."

BLURB: “The World owns his Image. His heart is another story”. Superstar actor Luca Moretti is Brooklyn’s Idol, flawless image, Oscar winner, and master of character creation. But when a leaked photo threatens to destroy him, his team hires struggling Journalist Daniel Reyes to write a flub piece rehabbing his image. There's Just One Problem: Daniel hates everything Luca stands for. Daniel knows celebrity profiles are bullshit PR, and Luca's Polished charm makes him want to burn the interview to the ground. But when a late-night argument turns into a kiss that shocks them both, they strike a deal: Daniel gets the raw, unfiltered Luca_ no lies, no filters for one week. What starts as a professional exchange becomes reckless: Secret trysts, Stolen moments, A Love neither can afford. Then the blackmail texts arrive: Someone knows. Someone’s watching. And if Luca doesn't end it now, both their careers will burn. But how do you walk away when the wrong person feels like home?

Before heading out on her undercover mission, my daughter Anna Stone left me a farewell letter. My husband, Wayne Stone, who adores her, reads it and immediately posts her photo on Instagram. His caption reads, "I heard Anna's on a mission. Let's see how many drug dens she'll take down this time." Anna's devoted husband, Gabriel Morrison, barely glances at the letter before dropping her exact location online. Anna's twin brother, Casper Stone, has always been inseparable from her. However, after reading the letter, he goes straight to the drug dealers and brings them to her. Anna's cover is blown, the mission fails, and all 37 officers are wiped out without a trace. I collapse in despair, lashing out at them with desperate questions, only to be bound and sent to Mirewick, a notorious criminal den. When I open my eyes again, I find myself back on the day Anna sets out on her mission.

My husband doesn't love me or our daughter. It's been six years since she was born, but he's never held her. The doctors say he has an emotional disorder, and that he doesn't know how to express the way he feels. But when his true love returns, he smiles at us for the first time. He even brings our daughter a gift. I think it's because he's finally seen sense… until she and I see the photo he uses as his phone's wallpaper. In it, his eyes are crinkled as he smiles. He has one arm around a little girl whose front tooth is missing, and he holds his true love's hand with the other. My daughter tugs on my hand, and her eyes redden. "Mommy, do you think we should leave? Should we give Daddy three final chances? Let's leave him if he still doesn't want us after that."
