The Unbreakable Walking Stick

She's my best friend's sister, which meant she was off-limits. But I could never keep my distance, because I had always wanted Mia. I tried hard to resist my feelings for her, yet, I couldn't. So, I walked away, thinking it was the right thing to do. Now, ten years later, I've made a name for myself. I’m a billionaire with everything I ever dreamed of—except for one thing: Mia. When I see her again, she’s not the shy girl I once knew. No, she’s confident, strong, and still the one person who has the power to make me lose control. However, she’s also cold and distant, treating me like just another client, a stranger. She has every reason to hate me. But this time, I’m not walking away.

Vanessa Carmichael never dreamed she would marry a man like Alexander Cole, the ruthless, untouchable CEO who commands respect and fear in equal measure. But when her mother’s life hangs in the balance, desperation forces her into an unthinkable deal: a three-year marriage contract with the coldest man she has ever met. Alexander makes one thing clear, this is business, not love. Yet from the moment Vanessa steps into his glittering mansion, their worlds collide in ways neither expected. At high-society galas, he shields her with icy authority. Behind closed doors, he lays down rules she refuses to follow. She pushes back; he pulls her closer. Theirs is a dangerous dance of control, passion, and secrets. But as cracks form in Alexander’s perfect mask, Vanessa begins to wonder, what is he hiding behind those dark, guarded eyes? And will she survive the fire she’s walking into…or burn for him completely?

"Who are you?" I ask, gawking at this ugly man who looks like the devil himself. "Your savior." savior? I may not remember anything from my past, but one thing is for sure, according to my judgment: this monster-lookalike can't be a savior. And from whom did he supposedly save me? "And if you are done ogling me, now, on your knees. Time to serve the purpose for which I saved you." I am snapped out of my thoughts by him tearing his shirt and walking closer in a pretty unnerving way. "Whi...ch is?" I whimper, trying to stand up from the bed and perhaps run for my dear life. Unfortunately, he grabs me viciously before I can take a step. A loud growl slips from my lips as he slams me back on the bed and hovers atop me. "To please me, little dove." He hoarses, embarking on his evil, dirty mission.

After my older sister, Cecilia, and I hit adulthood, our parents dropped a bomb: one of us had to run the family business, the other had to marry into the Spencer family in Norwick City. Cecilia, blinded by greed, called dibs on the company without blinking. Problem was, she was all talk. Spent her days jet-setting and partying while the business tanked. Within a year, she'd burned it all to the ground. Me? I got the Spencer name and popped out two boys, locking in my spot as the rich wife. Cecilia couldn't handle it. Jealousy made her snap—she straight-up stabbed me at a family party. Next thing I knew, I was back on the day we had to choose. Cecilia didn't even pause. "I'll marry into the Spencer family. The business can go to Demi." I laughed. My poor, clueless sister—she had no idea she was walking straight into hell.

“What did you say, little omega? I didn’t quite hear you.” Grayson rushed after me and growled; he yanked me roughly by the hair and pulled me back to face him. Then grabbing me by the scruff of the neck. I didn’t whimper or make a sound. I looked down at the ground, careful not to meet his glare. I knew that would make him more furious and I had learnt not to do that a long time ago. I could feel the eyes of the cafeteria on me, waiting for my response. My heart raced in my chest as Grayson's grip tightened on my neck. But I refused to show any weakness. That is what he wanted—weakness to show how powerful he was. But he would never be as powerful as his brothers or the Alpha and he knew it. "I said you don't have the right to treat others like dirt, Grayson," I repeated, my voice loud and clear for everyone around us to hear. Eliza is nothing more than an omega at the Creek Pack. All her life she has been treated badly by everyone especially the Alpha quadruplets and the Beta’s daughter. Determined to leave as soon as she turns eighteen, she soon realises that the moon goddess has other plans for her. How will Eliza react when she finds out that she is mated to the alpha quadruplets who made it their mission to destroy her life from day one. Will they regret their actions and claim Eliza as theirs? Or will Eliza stick to her plans and leave her mates and Creek pack for good?

It was all started in the hospital. I have a rare heart condition. I met him there, walking around the wards in his doctor's coat. Checking all the patients that been there. I thought my personality doesn't accepts other feelings. I'm a certified man hater! I didn't know why I fell in love with that grumpy doctor of mine! He's so mean and such a pain in the ass! I can't believe in myself that I totally fall for him. Not even a single day, it means everyday! What if fate crossed our paths? What should I do now? I'd accept him after all or not? Letting him to destroy the barriers that I've build through the years? Or maybe we're not in the same lane to be good and fit in each other? What should I do? Accept it or leave it?
