Thomas Brodie-sangster 15

Aurora Sinclair has always wanted to live life on her own terms. She works hard, keeps her head high, and refuses to depend on anyone—even when times are tough. But her peaceful life is thrown into chaos when her father forces her into an unexpected marriage with Damien Sterling, a powerful billionaire hiding a dangerous secret. Damien never planned on getting married, especially not through blackmail. But with Thomas Sinclair threatening to expose him, Damien has no choice but to agree. What he doesn’t expect is to fall for Aurora’s fiery spirit and kind heart. When Aurora discovers the truth about their marriage, she feels betrayed by both her father and Damien. Hurt and angry, she pushes Damien away, but he’s determined to prove that his love for her is real. Caught between lies, secrets, and their growing feelings for each other, Aurora and Damien must decide if their love is worth fighting for—or if their differences will tear them apart forever.

Emma Scott has always had it all—wealth, beauty, and power. As the privileged daughter of a business tycoon, she ruled her university years with confidence, arrogance, and an undeniable presence. But beneath her sharp tongue and ruthless attitude was an obsession she never dared to name—Killian Thomas, the one man who never bowed to her. Killian, a hardworking scholarship student from a middle-class background, despised Emma for the torment she put him through. She was cruel, entitled, and always seemed to have a target on his back. But when one heated argument after class turns into something far more physical, their hatred transforms into an addiction neither of them can resist. What starts as secret, no-strings-attached encounters after lectures spirals into something far more dangerous. They become study partners, but their breaks are filled with untamed passion. One night, they get locked inside the library and spend the entire night indulging in their darkest desires. Their obsession only grows stronger. Upon graduation, Killian is offered a job at Emma’s father’s company, the very place where Emma works. Their sinful rendezvous continue in secret—stolen moments in offices, forbidden trysts during business trips. They think they’re careful, but when Emma’s father catches them in a compromising position overseas, their affair is exposed. Faced with an ultimatum, Emma refuses to back down. She confesses that her bullying was always a twisted way of masking her love for Killian. She threatens to leave everything behind if her father dares to fire him. Forced to confront their true feelings, Emma and Killian finally make their relationship official. But even after marriage, their hunger for each other remains insatiable—whether at home, at work, or in places they should never be. Their passion is reckless. Their love is ruthless. And their temptation?

Le jour de mon mariage, mon fiancé a eu une liaison avec ma sœur Isabelle Bernard dans le salon de repos, et ils ont été surpris sur le fait. Je suis devenue la risée de tous, mais mon ami d'enfance Alex Thomas m'a demandé en mariage publiquement et m'a défendue. Après le mariage, il m'a obéi en tout. Malheureusement, notre vie sexuelle n'a jamais bien fonctionné. Ce n'était qu'après avoir fait une FIV cette année que je suis tombée enceinte. Après cela, il m'a choyée de toutes les manières possibles. J'ai cru qu'il était enfin mon véritable refuge. Jusqu'au jour où j'ai entendu sa conversation avec un ami. « Alex, tu es trop cruel. Léa Bernard est si gentille avec toi. Comment as-tu pu échanger les ovules pour que Léa porte l'enfant à la place d'Isabelle, simplement parce qu'Isabelle a peur d'accoucher ? » « Et l'enfant va naître dans deux mois. Qu'est-ce que tu comptes faire ? » Il s'est tu un instant et a poussé un soupir. « Une fois l'enfant né, je le remettrai à Isabelle pour réaliser son rêve de devenir mère. » « Quant à Léa, je lui dirai que l'enfant est mort. » « Je resterai avec elle pour le reste de sa vie. » Alors c'était donc ça. Toute la tendresse que je croyais sincère n'était destinée qu'à elle. Je suis allée prendre rendez-vous pour un avortement. Je n'ai plus voulu de cet enfant impur. Je n'ai plus voulu de ce mariage mensonger non plus.
