Vanessa Kirby Plastic Surgery

*Smut After her mate's brutal rejection, healing prodigy Sandra surrenders to a dangerously seductive stranger in a dark alley, only to discover he's her uncle Marcus. Trapped by blackmail in his isolated house, forbidden desire ignites between lessons. But Marcus harbors a deadly secret about her father's death. ----------------- “Fuck, Sandra,” he growled, thumb brushing over my nipple through the fabric until it stiffened, aching. “Vanessa’s right upstairs. If she hears us—” “I don’t care,” I panted, rocking up against him, chasing that thick pressure. “Make me forget today. Just tonight. Please.” I’m going straight to hell,” he muttered, then closed the gap. His mouth took mine slow this time, deliberate, like he was memorizing the taste of me. I sighed into it, hands sliding up his chest to grip his shoulders. He tasted like black coffee and smoke and sin, and I wanted more. He tugged me closer, one hand fisting in my hair, the other splayed low on my back, pressing me against him. Heat flared low in my belly, spreading fast. I shifted, trying to ease the ache between my thighs, and he groaned against my lips, grip tightening. His tongue traced the seam of my mouth; I opened for him instantly, meeting him stroke for stroke until we were both breathing hard. He tilted my head back, lips moving down my throat, teeth grazing the frantic beat of my pulse. I gasped, nails digging into the muscle of his shoulders. “We should stop,” he rasped against my skin, but his hand was already pushing under my thin tank top, calloused palm gliding up my ribs. “We should,” I agreed breathlessly, then dragged his mouth back to mine, kissing him deeper, hungrier.

Years after graduation, someone suddenly tags me in the class group chat. "Mr. Warren is gravely ill, Mira. Aren't you going to do anything? You really are heartless!" I only realize what's going on when I click on the fundraising link in the chat. Our high school homeroom teacher, Joseph Warren, has late-stage cancer. Thus, Lyra Fairfield, the class belle, is leading a fundraiser and patient-donor matching process. "I'll donate ten thousand dollars. My husband is the director of Waverly General Hospital, and I've already asked him to arrange a VIP ward for Mr. Warren." Right after I send that message, the group pounces on me. "Mira, you contracted an STD back then and tried to pin it on Lyra. She didn't even hold it against you, and now you're trying to steal her thunder? You're unbelievable!" "I can't believe you're still lying through your teeth during such a serious situation. You never change, do you?" Lyra immediately defuses the tension. "Mira, I don't blame you for what happened in the past, but you really shouldn't impersonate the director's wife. I've already arranged the ward and surgery, and I'm donating another 100 thousand dollars to Mr. Warren!" I'm this close to laughing out of sheer anger. She's the one who scratched her name off the diagnosis report and framed me for having an STD all those years ago. I never even confronted her about it, and now she's playing the victim? Lyra soon posts a photo in the group chat, showing off her husband's car. Yet, when I see the man in the passenger seat, I guffaw. Isn't that my husband's driver? When did he start running a hospital?

Si Elena Madrigal, isang sikat at hinahangaang fashion designer, ay kilala sa kanyang Majesty Designs, mga obra na simbolo ng karangyaan at kapangyarihan. Ngunit sa isang iglap, ang mundong itinayo niya ay gumuho sa kamay ng mga taong minsan niyang minahal at pinagkatiwalaan, ang dating kasintahan niyang si Adrian De Leon, na ninakaw at ipinagbili ang kanyang mga disenyo, ang matalik niyang kaibigan na si Vanessa Alcaraz, na nilamon ng inggit, at ang boss niyang ginamit ang kanyang talento para sa sariling ambisyon. Habang unti-unting nabubura ang kanyang pangalan sa industriyang minsan niyang pinasiklab, isang lalaking matagal nang nakamasid sa kanya mula sa dilim ang lumapit. Si Nathan Arguelles, isang makapangyarihan at misteryosong billionaire. Tahimik ngunit mapanganib. May tinig na kayang bumura ng alinlangan. At sa isang boses na malamig at mabigat sa pangako, bumulong ito: “Be mine and marry me, Elena. I’ll give you back the world they stole from you.” Ang kasunduang ito ay hindi tungkol sa pag-ibig, kundi sa paghihiganti. Para kay Elena, ito ang tanging paraan para muling mabawi ang lahat. Ngunit sa ilalim ng mga halik na nilalabanan niya, sa bawat titig na tila binabalatan ang kanyang kaluluwa, unti-unting nagbabago ang laro. Sa pagitan ng pag-ibig at paghihiganti, kailangang  piliin ni Elena kung mananatili ba siya sa apoy ng paghihiganti o hahayaan niyang ang lalaking dapat sana’y biktima lang… ang maging dahilan ng pagbabagong hindi niya inaasahan. Paghihiganti ang dahilan niya…ngunit ang nakaharap niya, ang lalaking kayang baliktarin ang lahat.

The night my father collapsed, I learned some men negotiate with money… but Noah Thorne negotiates with lives. I never planned to marry a billionaire CEO, especially not the man my father owed $50,000 to. But when the hospital demanded an $80,000 deposit before surgery, life made the choice for me. While my mother sobbed in a cold hallway, Noah’s bodyguard arrived with an offer, an arranged marriage, a contract marriage that would clear the debt and cover every medical bill. When I confronted Noah, he presented the terms without cruelty: one year, no intimacy, public appearances only, and freedom after. He believed he was offering mercy but I felt like beautifully packaged captivity. Desperation crushed pride, and I signed. Our “marriage” was a seven-minute formality, no vows, no meaning. Moving into his penthouse was like stepping into a museum built to contain silence. Publicly, we were the perfect romance. Privately, we were strangers navigating a fragile arrangement thick with unspoken tension. Complications followed us: Noah’s elegant, smug ex who treated me like a placeholder, and my own ex-boyfriend, whose sudden reappearance triggered jealousy in Noah he couldn’t hide. Arguments, silences, and late-night moments softened something between us. Slowly, painfully, the man behind the empire emerged, the lonely boy shaped by loss, abandonment, and guarded walls. We began to care. We tried to deny it. Feelings weren’t in the contract but feelings don’t read contracts. Near the end of the year, Noah pulled away. I thought he wanted freedom. He signed the release papers with steady hands and a breaking heart. I was almost gone when he whispered the truth: “Please don’t go.” We tore up the contract. A year later, we married again, this time for love, not survival. This time, I chose him

My son, Tim, was kidnapped by a group of rogues. My husband, Alpha Kieran, spared no effort, using every resource at his disposal to find him. Finally, he tracked him down to an pub training center nearby. But when Tim regained consciousness, he discovered that he was disabled. As the only son of Kieran, destined to inherit his father’s title, he couldn’t bear the reality of his condition. Despair consumed him, and in his grief, he attempted to take his own life by drowning himself in the lake within our territory. I arrived too late. By the time I pulled him from the water, my strength was nearly gone. Kieran rushed me to the pack hospital, holding me close as he whispered into my ear, "Please, Selene, stay with me. I cannot lose you too." But after my surgery, as I lay in bed, I overheard Kieran speaking to his Beta, Damon, in the hallway. "Alpha, sacrificing the rescue mission that could have saved Tim seemed… excessive. Finding another heart donor wouldn’t have been impossible. Using Tim’s—he was your only son with Luna Selene." "I allowed him to be born because I knew he could save my daughter. I’ve already raised him long enough. It’s only right that he gives me what I need now." "And the doctor said siblings have a better chance of surviving heart transplants. Ana is my most precious child—I won’t risk her suffering another heart attack." Kieran’s words shattered me. He was my fated mate, the love of my life. Yet he had sacrificed our son—our son—to save the bastard child he had with his mistress. The marriage I once cherished, the fated mate I once believed in, had now become my own personal hell.

The hospital's latest intern, Lindsey Clark, is very pretty, but she's a total idiot as well. When my mom came to the hospital for a prescription, she swapped the vitamin C for potassium supplements, which were known to be very poisonous if misused. Mom, who was fresh out of surgery, suffered from heavy bleeding right after taking the medication. She died on the same night. Before I could hold Lindsey responsible for Mom's death, the latter quickly piped up with teary eyes, "I'm so sorry, Dr. Monroe! I just thought that potassium supplements can help your mother heal faster…" Even Michael Jones, my husband, who was the hospital director, took her side. "Your mom only had her idiocy to blame! She died because she took the wrong medication! How dare you drag Lindsey into this!" I was so furious that my cardiac arrest was triggered on the spot. Soon, I was sent into the operating room. Lindsey said she wanted to redeem herself by taking on the post as Michael's assistant in the surgery. But her hands kept trembling even when she tried to thread the suture needle. In the end, she took off her mask and picked up the suture with her teeth. Just like that, she used her saliva to wet the suture end. One day later, I died in the ICU due to a case of severe infection. When my spirit was about to fade away, I heard Lindsey crying sadly. "If it wasn't for my idiocy, Dr. Monroe wouldn't have died!" Michael just patted her dotingly on the head in return. "Having medical risks in a surgical operation is completely normal. You're still young, so stop blaming yourself already." Mom and I were cremated instantly, seeing as Michael intended to cover up our deaths. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Lindsey has just gotten recruited by the hospital.

— Chefe, sobre o projeto de construção do pátio da fazenda na base do Cazaquistão, eu gostaria de participar. Do outro lado da linha, o chefe demonstrou certa surpresa: — Antes, por mais que eu insistisse, você não queria ir, dizia que queria ficar ao lado do seu namorado. Por que mudou de ideia de repente? Laura Vieira baixou as pálpebras avermelhadas e sorriu, tentando soar despreocupada: — Eu tentei, mas não adiantou. Já sabia que era hora de voltar atrás antes que fosse tarde demais. Ao ouvir isso, o chefe suspirou e falou com seriedade: — Esta é uma operação secreta. Você vai entrar no projeto com uma identidade completamente nova e, até o término, não poderá entrar em contato com o mundo exterior. Laura, você tem certeza de que pensou bem? — Sim, só quero sair daqui o quanto antes. Houve um breve silêncio do outro lado da linha, mas a resposta veio em seguida: — Certo. Mais tarde vou te enviar o acordo de confidencialidade. Os trâmites devem sair em cerca de um mês. Aproveite esse tempo para se despedir da sua família. Assim que a ligação foi encerrada, um arquivo apareceu em sua caixa de entrada. Laura leu todas as cláusulas e, determinada, assinou o acordo eletrônico de confidencialidade, confirmando o envio. Ao mesmo tempo, a televisão reprisava o lançamento do novo produto do Grupo Próspero. Ricardo Barros, vestindo um terno branco de corte impecável, conduzia Vanessa Souza lentamente pela passarela.

The entire ward could hear the thoughts of the beautiful intern nurse, Sonya Row. When a patient kept vomiting nonstop, and I suggested increasing the pain medication, she stood nearby, sighing. [What should I do? Should I tell the family this painkiller can be addictive and really bad for the body? If they just wait a few more minutes, he'll recover on his own. There's no need to spend money at all.] The room fell silent in an instant. Everyone's gaze shifted toward me, and the family quietly refused my treatment plan. After that, I became the joke of the entire department. Every patient specifically asked not to be assigned to me. Later, while comforting a terminal stomach cancer patient, I followed her family's wishes and lied, saying it was just gastritis. Sonya complained about it in her thoughts. [The patient's practically dying already, but she's still saying she can be cured. It's obviously just to trick this old woman into draining her life savings on treatment.] That night, the old lady jumped off the building so she wouldn't burden her family. Her family thought I had revealed the truth and driven her to her death. They reported me directly to the hospital director, and I was stripped of my position as department head. Then, on a holiday weekend, the hospital admitted a pregnant woman with a suspected amniotic fluid embolism. To save her life, I had no choice but to remove her uterus. At that moment, Sonya's thoughts rang out again. [She doesn't have an amniotic fluid embolism at all. She was on her phone during surgery, which caused this. Now look what happened. This baby's a girl. This family wanted a son, and now they'll never get one.] The family attacked me on the spot, recorded it, and posted the video online to harass me. The desperate husband, obsessed with having a son, stabbed me to death to vent his rage. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Sonya first revealed her thoughts. This time, I could hear her thoughts, too.

“Limang taon mo akong iniwan… akala mo ba papayagan kitang umalis ulit?” Si Isabella Reyes ay isang simpleng sekretarya na nagkaroon ng isang gabing puno ng bawal na pagnanasa kasama ang billionaire mafia boss na si Marcus Villanueva. Isang “mistake” lang daw iyon para sa kanya—pero para kay Isabella, nagbunga ito ng kambal. Nang malaman ni Marcus, pinilit niyang pakasalan siya sa contract marriage. Cold, possessive, at walang pag-ibig—puro galit at hate-sex lang ang namamagitan sa kanila. Natuklasan niya ang betrayal ni Vanessa, ang ex-fiancée na lihim na spy, at nagising ang galit niya. Habang buntis pa, tumakas siya patungong Italy. Doon niya pinalaki ang kambal na sina Mia at Milo bilang single mom, habang lihim na binubuo ang sariling imperyo—bilang ang hidden heiress ng Monteverde clan, karibal na mafia family ng Villanueva. Limang taon ang lumipas. Bumalik siya sa Pilipinas—hindi na mahina, kundi makapangyarihan na CEO na may hawak na sa shares ng Villanueva Empire. Paghihiganti ang nasa isip niya. Pero nang muli silang magtagpo, hindi na makapagpigil si Marcus. Chasing, begging, at intense na passion ang sumunod—habang natutuklasan ang mas malaking lihim: ang kambal ay may mafia bloodline powers, at ang bagong pagbubuntis ni Isabella ay nagbunga ng quadroplets—kasama ang “Stormbringer” na baby girl na may kapangyarihan sa elements. Sa gitna ng digmaan ng tatlong clans—Villanueva, Monteverde, at ang misteryosong Salvatore—lalaban sila para sa pamilya nila. Mula sa isang sinful mistake, magiging eternal obsession ba ang pag-ibig nila? O masisira lahat sa kapangyarihan ng Stormbringer?

After three years of relentless pursuit, I finally won over Logan—a guy who had never shown the slightest interest in women—and he cherished me like I was his entire world. On the eve of our wedding, I accidentally overheard one of his friends teasing him, "Logan, are you really ready to step into the grave of marriage for Bella? And what about Joann? She's chased you for so many years. Don't you feel anything for her?" Logan's voice was cold. "If we hadn't grown up together, I wouldn't even want to see Joann's face. She could never compare to Bella, ever." So, I held onto dreams for our future, and I married him. Two years later, at our daughter's hundred-day celebration, Joann came to me in tears, claiming her baby had leukemia—and that only my daughter could save her baby. Logan's eyes reddened instantly, and without hesitation, he sent our daughter into the operating room to have her blood drawn. I struggled in the bodyguards' grip desperately, crying and pleading, "Logan, Lily is still so little. She can't take this. She'll die! Please, use the cord blood I stored for her. I'm begging you, let her go." He kicked me aside. "It's just a bit of blood. Joann's baby is dying, and you're still this selfish? Get out!" When the surgery was over, he tossed a divorce agreement at me. "Joann's child is mine. I have to give them both a name, and I'm taking her abroad for treatment." I stared at my silent, motionless daughter in the operating room, my heart turning to ash. "Fine." Six years later, Logan saw me in a baby store, holding the hand of my five-year-old son. Logan reached out with a pained look, trying to pick him up. "Why did you cut Lily's hair so short? She looks like a boy. What were you thinking?"
