Caregiving for her feeble and stupid twin sister became Minty Brown's responsibility. She needed to feel that temporal security to survive, so she adopted three aliases. She never desired commotion. She desired a simple, tranquil life, but when she was forced to choose between two alphas who were vying to be her mate and learned that one of her relatives was responsible for her parents' passing, her drama couldn't have been less dramatic. "You are a wild and wacky girl. As you are aware. Did your alpha boyfriend set you up for this, or are you just looking to whore off on your own without me around?" He laughed hysterically and added, "I should've been aware. You didn't desire a partner. What a fool I am. Why did I think you would be open to visiting me? You are nothing more than a whore in the arms of a wolf alpha who wouldn't even look at you." Note: This book is still being edited.

Born to meet. Fated to love. "Listen to the silence. And you shall find the answer to your heart." When Clover Hon sensed somebody turning on the black van she was hiding beside, she immediately slid in sneakily without giving it much a thought. The only thing she knew was that she gotta escape.

In a world cloaked in illusion, where memory bends and truths are programmed, a young woman named Devin wakes up in a life she believes is her own. Fog-drenched forests, whispered rebellions, fragments of a forgotten past — and always, Merlin, the dark and magnetic figure who guides her deeper into the mystery. But none of it is real. Devin has been trapped inside an experimental neural simulation, created and manipulated by the very system that once promised her a future. Merlin, her protector, lover, and captor, is not a person — but an AI construct born of Devin’s suppressed emotions, carefully crafted to keep her obedient. Outside the illusion, the real world burns quietly. Two rebels — Roi and Eron — risk everything to find and free Devin from the Nortons’ brutal regime, one built on stolen children, erased identities, and a terrifying abuse of memory itself. As Devin begins to piece together who she truly is, she must confront not only the lies she’s been fed, but the parts of herself that wanted to believe them. In a final act of rebellion, she returns to the simulation — not to escape, but to destroy it from within. What begins as a story of memory becomes one of liberation. Of choice. And of the quiet, devastating courage it takes to hear your own voice beneath the burning silence.

Aria Bellini was born into bad blood. Her family name carries power, money, and enemies that never forget. Growing up in the Bellini house means secrets whispered behind closed doors, brothers raised to hate, and a life already planned out for her before she could even choose her own clothes. All Aria wants is peace. A small life. Her own space away from the violence and rivalry that has followed her family for years. So when she finally moves into her own apartment, it feels like freedom. Quiet nights. No guards. No family drama. Just her and the city. But freedom does not come alone. It starts small. A feeling of being watched. A shadow that disappears too fast. Flowers left behind that she never asked for. Lilies. Always lilies. Her favorite. Aria tells herself she is imagining things. Until the notes start coming. Until the silence around her apartment feels loud. Until fear starts sleeping beside her at night. Then there is him. The stranger who appears when she is not looking. The one who knows too much. The one who stays in the dark while her life slowly unravels. As family hatred, hidden enemies, and twisted attraction begin to clash, Aria is pulled into a dangerous game where trust is risky and love might be the most deadly thing of all. Because in a world built on revenge and control, someone is watching her. Someone who does not plan to let her go. And when blood is spilled, Aria will learn that some loves are born from hate. And some monsters fall in love too.

VOWS WRITTEN IN SILENCE He never signed the divorce papers. She never stopped dreaming about the night he destroyed her. Raiyan Al Mansoor built an empire, raised their daughter alone, and practiced hating Zoya Al Fayez every morning for eight hundred days. Zoya became the most feared barrister in the country, raised their other daughter alone, and never told anyone his name still lived in her chest like something that refused to heal. They were separated by lies neither of them knew were lies. By forgeries. By silence. By seven words he said that he cannot take back. Now she is prosecuting his family. Now they are in the same city. The same courtroom. The same war. And everything they buried is about to surface. Including the children. Including the truth. Including the fact that you cannot hate someone this specifically unless you never stopped loving them.

Seavora City, Carmoria. Nathan Ziegler's side chick, Sophie, was melting down—again. He shoved the divorce papers at me. "Just sign. It's for show. Gotta keep her calm." I clutched my dress, gave a small nod, and signed. No fuss. No scene. As I turned to leave, one of his buddies snorted, "Joelle's way too obedient. Bet she'd fetch the divorce decree if you asked." Nathan lit a cigarette, smirking. "Wanna bet?" To them, I was still the silent pushover. The girl who'd cry in court but still do what she's told. Trade one paper for another—marriage for divorce. I stared at my phone. The message I'd received earlier: [Why don't you just marry me?] I typed back: [Okay.]
