Tout le monde savait que Thibault Dubois, autrefois le jeune libertin le plus célèbre d'Étoilebourg, avait toujours été épris de la brillante jeune fille, Océane Lefevre, avec qui il avait grandi. Peu de temps après leur mariage, un accident de voiture les avait séparés : Océane était devenue une personne végétative et Thibault avait perdu la mémoire. Lorsque Océane s'est réveillée finalement, deux années s'étaient déjà écoulées. À ce moment-là, Thibault était déjà avec une autre femme. Pire encore, pour cette autre femme, Thibault avait diffusé des photos nues d'Océane à l'Université Lumière d'Émeraude, la forçant ainsi à divorcer. Déçue, Océane est partie. Cinq ans plus tard. Au moment où Océane se remariait, Thibault est apparu en pleurant devant chez elle. « Océane, je me suis souvenu de tout, tu ne peux pas épouser quelqu'un d'autre ! » « Maman, tu ne peux pas parler à d'autres oncles, papa sera jaloux ! », a dit un enfant adorable, tendant la main à Gaspard Leroux qui descendait de la voiture. « Papa, câlin ! »

I spent five years helping my boyfriend Marco rise to the position of Don. I nearly died countless times, but I didn't care; I loved him. He used to look at me tenderly and promised to propose to me publicly at his Don succession ceremony. But on that very day, he held the hand of another Mafia Principessa Sophia Romano and announced their engagement. To completely get rid of me, Sophia pulled a stack of photos from her bag and slammed them into my face. "See for yourself! She's been sleeping around to get intel!" In the picture, I was leaning into a man's arms. I tried to explain, but Marco interrupted me. "I always knew you were lowborn, but I didn't realize you were this cheap." "Get out!" Marco pointed at the door. "Elena, you are exiled from the family. Never let me see you again." I finally saw this man for who he truly was. He was completely subservient to me when he needed my help to seize territory, but after becoming the Godfather, he needed a more distinguished Donna, and therefore no longer needed me. I sneered; they had no idea that the man in the picture was my brother, the Don of the most powerful Corleone family. Sophia’s family was nothing compared to the Corleone family. I stopped arguing and simply turned and left. But when my true identity was finally exposed, he crawled back to me, weeping and begging for my forgiveness.

Joel Gleason, my childhood sweetheart and fiancé, promised he'd marry no one but me. But then, to help Jenny Swisher, my adoptive sister, get through her depression, he secretly married her. I didn't hesitate for a second before agreeing to marry Conrad Lennon, Jasselton's most untouchable heir, who'd been in love with me for years. After seven years of marriage, he still spoiled me rotten. He clung to me every night like he couldn't get enough. And there was nothing he wouldn't do for me. I really thought I'd found happiness at last. But one day, after we'd slept together, I heard him talking to his best friend. "Jenny's an international best actress now. When are you dumping Jean?" "It doesn't matter. I wouldn't end up with the person I love either way. Besides, I have to keep an eye on Jean. I can't let her ruin all the happiness Jenny worked so hard for." I booted up the computer in Conrad's study and stumbled upon a hidden folder. Inside were over 100,000 photos of Jenny, plus 100 unsent love letters. I'd been fooling myself long enough. It was time to wake up. I got myself a fake body and got ready to start a fire. That was it. Conrad and I were done for good.

“Andreas… you’re young. I don’t want to hurt you,” Mia breathed. He chuckled darkly. “Hurt me? I think I’m the one with power here,” he murmured, smirking. “You flew across the world just because I asked.” Her pulse raced as he pinned her to the desk, his fingers sliding beneath her skirt, brushing her damp panties, and his lips grazing her ear. “So…for two weeks, you do exactly what I say. No arguments.” “Yes…” she whispered. “Yes, what?” “Yes… Sir.” “Good girl,” he whispered. “On your knees. Now.” ..........

After the college entrance exam, the school's reigning beauty dragged me into a wager over our scores. "Only the girl with the higher marks is worthy of being Eric's girlfriend." Eric Lowell scoffed. "That's enough, Jocelyn. My relationships aren't yours to dictate." Then, in front of everyone, he confessed to me. I mistook it for the answer to a long-held crush. With the crowd egging us on, I flushed and said yes. That night, he took me back to his place. From then on, we hardly spent a night apart. Before application season, I went to his house, hoping we would apply to the same university. Instead, I overheard part of a phone call. "Jocelyn, everything's ready: the photos, the videos. Just like you asked." Jocelyn's laughter drifted through the receiver, light and pleased. "You must've gone to so much trouble~ Then let's wait until the school assembly the day after tomorrow and stream it to the whole school. I'm curious to see how Tessa plans on applying to those top-tier universities after that." "Eric," she added casually, "you're not having second thoughts, are you?" He hesitated, then answered, "Why would I? If anyone's at fault, it's her for not knowing her place. What right does she have to keep scoring higher than you?" I set the custom ring down, opened my email, and accepted the Oxford offer that had been waiting for me for a week.

In the past, my sister, Harper Summit, and I married the Rex twins, Murray and Craig, who were capos in the Luciano family, a mafia crime syndicate. On our third wedding anniversary, Harper and I accidentally stumbled upon the brothers’ secret base. Every wall inside was covered with photos of their adopted sister, Lucy Rex. Only then did we realize that it was Lucy they truly loved. The next day, their enemies came for revenge. Lucy and I were both kidnapped while Harper managed to escape. The kidnappers called my husband, Murray, and demanded to know who mattered most to him. To save Lucy, Murray lied without hesitation and told them it was me. As expected, Lucy was released, and I was subjected to brutal torture. When I was on the verge of death, the only one who rushed to save me was Harper. She dragged my severely injured body into a basement and tearfully called her husband, Craig. When Craig finally answered, he said, “Don’t disturb me. Lulu’s in shock. I need to be with her.” Right after he hung up, the kidnappers broke in and brutally murdered us in that pitch-dark basement. When I opened my eyes again, both Harper and I had returned to the past. Our mother asked us who we wished to marry in the arranged alliances. We glanced at each other. Without even discussing it, we understood what we needed to do. This time, neither of us chose the Rex family. When Murray and Craig saw us two sisters in wedding dresses, marrying the twin brothers of the Luciano family, they completely lost their minds.

Elara Vane was the perfect Luna—devoted, obedient, and loyal to her mate and pack. On the night of her third wedding anniversary, that illusion shatters when anonymous photos expose her mate, Jax Vane, in bed with her own sister. Betrayed and broken, Elara’s world collapses in a single breath. When she hits rock bottom, it is not her cheating mate who comes to her rescue—but the one man she was raised to fear. Silas Vane. Former Alpha. Jax’s father. Her father-in-law. Cold, powerful, and dangerously controlled, Silas offers Elara something she has never had: protection without lies, desire without weakness. One night of forbidden passion binds them together, crossing a line that can never be erased. But Elara soon discovers the truth—Silas didn’t just save her from ruin. He engineered it. As Elara divorces Jax and the pack descends into scandal, Silas reclaims the Alpha throne, publicly claiming Elara as his chosen consort. Their union ignites outrage, jealousy, and bloodshed. When Elara’s sister is found murdered and Jax is framed for the crime, Elara is forced to confront the terrifying reach of the man she is falling for. The truth shatters everything: Silas will burn the world for her—but loving him means surrendering innocence forever. Caught between revenge and devotion, Elara must choose whether to run from the monster who destroyed her life…or rule beside him as Luna, crowned by fire, power, and an unforgivable love.
