The Trial Of Asmodeus

The world wanted perfection. Liam Blackwell had it what it took to be called perfect. A woman he was about to marry, a thriving company, and money that could make a problem go away in a blink. Until one day, it all fell apart. A son he never asked for. A fiancée lost at the altar. A life shattered in an instant. Stella Kingsley, a doctor and a finance graduate, who worked for six years to become a doctor she didn’t want to be and went back to school to study finance. Her reward for studying finance? Unemployment. When she accidentally applies to Blackwell Enterprises, she lands a one-week trial under the city’s most feared and scandal-ridden CEO. Seven days. Seven rules. Three strikes. One chance to survive. Drawn into Liam’s world of rumors, power, and blurred lines, Stella becomes more than an employee. She becomes someone Liam can’t ignore. But the past refuses to stay buried. It comes back with teeth. Lola, Liam’s almost-wife, returns, pregnant and determined to claim what she believes is hers. In a world where choices needed to be made, mistakes are bound to happen and consequences are there to bear. Liam must choose. A flawless empire or the home he never expected to need.

The life trial system "If You Think You Can Do Better, Prove It" burst onto the scene like a traveling circus promising wonders. The idea was plain enough: "If you reckon someone's life is a mess, and you think you can do better, go ahead and prove it. There's a reward waiting if you do." Before I knew it, my whole family had me pegged for the fool in the middle of the show. There was my mother, dreaming of turning me into some grand goose; my husband, who'd spent years dodging his rightful share of the family load; and my son, mortified by the very sight of me. They shoved me onto the "judgment seat" like I was the villain of the tale. Every last one of them swore up and down that, given my place, they'd manage my life better than I ever could. The stakes? Well, if they pulled it off, my consciousness would be erased—gone, wiped out like a mistake on a chalkboard—and turned into their personal servant. On top of that, they'd waltz off with a cool million dollars. But if they couldn't? Then I'd be the one raking in three million dollars. Now that's a gamble for the ages, isn't it?

Bella was born an omega in a world that only respects strength. That meant being ignored. Pushed aside. Hurt in ways no one cared to see. While others trained under the sun, Bella learned how to survive quietly. Hide the bruises. Bite back the fear. Keep breathing. Then her name is called for the Alpha Trials. The same trials meant for the strongest wolves. The same trials ruled by Jake the Alpha heir who has never lost… and the man fate binds her to. “You don’t belong here,” Jake says, cold and sure. Bella lifts her head. “Watch me.” As the trials turn deadly, a secret about Bella’s blood comes out one that makes the pack turn on her. Whispers grow louder. Eyes follow her everywhere. The bond between her and Jake burns hot and dangerous, something the laws forbid. If Jake claims her, he loses everything. If he rejects her, she might not survive. Now hunted by her own pack and standing in the middle of a truth meant to stay buried, Bella faces a choice that could shatter their world. Submit… or destroy the system that broke her. Because this time, Bella isn’t asking to belong. And when the final trial begins, she realizes one terrifying thing She was never meant to survive it.

He didn’t respond with words: he responded with his body. Drawing back slightly, he lined up the head of his cock and gave a small, careful thrust. She stiffened and he paused. “Babe?” He moved his hand under her curvy ass, supporting her. “You OK?” She nodded, already breathless. “You feel so damn good.” “Oh, fuck,” he groaned as she rotated her hips, taking him deeper. “Ditto, angel.” That was the end of coherent conversation between them. **** This is the final book in the 'Fighting For Love' series, and happily-ever-afters don’t come easy.

By the time Nolan is five, I finally see the truth clearly. My husband, Justin Ford, does not love our son or me. Determined to end this disastrous marriage, I decide to leave with Nolan. But fate has other plans. A car accident leaves me with a lost kidney and Nolan missing an eye. In our darkest hour, the cold, indifferent Justin kneels in public, begging for forgiveness, promising to be a lifelong support for both our son and me. Nolan and I decide to give him a trial period of 100 days. If he passes, we will stay. On the 99th day, we stumble upon him speaking with the attending doctor. "Mr. Ford, you caused the accident on purpose to save Ms. Lloyd's child while taking organs from Mrs. Ford and Nolan. Was it really worth all that?" "It's worth it. I'll do whatever makes Suzanne happy." "What if Mrs. Ford and Mr. Nolan find out?" Justin falls silent for a moment, then instinctively touches his wedding ring. "They must never find out. All they want is a family, and I'll do everything I can to make it right," he says coldly. It turns out his entire act of repentance was nothing more than a carefully orchestrated lie. The happiness Nolan and I believed in was merely an illusion, designed to protect the one he truly cared for. Every gift came with a secret cost, and now, we are paying the price.

“I don’t want to hurt you, Aurora…” he said in a low whisper, his breaths hot on me. I replied softly, the tears in my eyes threatening to fall, “then don’t hurt me.” But I knew he couldn't do that.

When a young girl named **Emilia** moves to an isolated, fog-drenched city in search of a fresh start, she quickly discovers that something is terribly wrong. The streets echo with silence, residents vanish without a trace, and time itself begins to twist and collapse. As doors appear in places they shouldn’t, and her own reflection begins acting on its own, Emilia realizes she’s trapped in a place that is not just haunted — it’s alive. Each chapter peels back a new layer of horror: shadowy watchers, eerie apparitions, underground tunnels, and ghostly echoes of past inhabitants. But the real terror lies within — the city seems to feed on fear, loneliness, and the feeling of failure. It reflects Emilia’s own anxieties back at her, warping her reality into a trial of the soul. As she searches for meaning, and later for escape, Emilia uncovers the city’s sinister purpose: it traps those most vulnerable and forces them to confront their darkest selves. With the help of other survivors — some real, some echoes — she must navigate psychological mazes and make impossible choices to survive. But survival isn't enough. Emilia must transform — not by escaping her fear, but by embracing it. In doing so, she becomes something more than a victim of the city. She becomes a guide, a witness, and eventually, a keeper of the door. *Trapped in the Hollow City* is a suspenseful, haunting exploration of inner demons, resilience, and the eerie beauty of choosing to become — even when the world seems built to break you.
