We'd

He’s forbidden to me So why can’t I resist him? Grayson Barlowe has always been my enemy. We were taught by our warring families to compete on the business battlefield. But everything changes when we’re forced to work together! I have never been immune to his devilish good looks. But as I learn about the pain that Grayson keeps hidden from the world, it becomes obvious he’s not just a playboy. Yet a truce seems impossible, until I find myself in the place I vowed I’d never be: between my enemy’s sheets!

I hated my husband most in the moment he died for me, swallowed by the flames. Right before he took his last breath, he tore our marriage certificate in half, his eyes burning red. "If there's another life," he said, "I'd rather we never met." My whole body went rigid. Only then did I understand—he blamed me. Ten years ago, his childhood sweetheart and her family had been exiled. She had begged him for help. But that day, he'd gone with me on a trip and missed the chance to save her. And for ten long years, he held that grudge against me. After my husband's death, the world turned on me. Even my in-laws, who had always cared for me, looked at me with pure disgust. "If not for you, Russ wouldn't be dead. We wish you'd never been born!" I couldn't bear it anymore. I ended my life. I never expected that when I opened my eyes again, I would be back on the day Russ Williams came to propose. This time, I would do exactly as he wished. I would give everyone what they wanted.

I was a slum kid who fell for Damon Vitale, New York’s most feared Godfather. For five years, I was his. I took nine bullets for him. He’d kiss my scars as I bled out for him. Hold me close. Clasp the queen’s necklace around my throat. Then, once I healed, he’d fuck me senseless, with a passion that felt like forever. I thought we’d spend our lives together. I thought he would marry me. But on our 999th night together, he told me he was engaged. To Bianca, a mafia princess from a rival family. I swallowed my tears. He just grabbed my chin, blew smoke in my face, and laughed. "You didn't really think you could marry me, did you, Nora? Let's be clear. We fuck. That's it. You're not a partner. You're a piece of art I collect. A pet I own." A pet. That’s all he ever wanted for me. Instead, I picked up a burner phone. [I'm taking your offer. Three days. Get me the hell out of New York.]

My mom and dad died heroically in a fire rescue, trying to protect an orphan. Afterward, my brother brought the orphan, Audrey, home. To make her smile, he'd throw away photos of me and our parents. He even kicked me out in front of everyone. For Audrey's coming-of-age celebration, he took her to Cranburn—the place I'd always dreamed of going. In his eyes, I had nowhere else to go. He believed that once I realized I was wrong, I'd come back on my own. But what he didn't know was—I had joined an overseas rescue team. This might be the last time we ever see each other.

Chaque nuit, elle rêve de lui. Un homme qu’elle ne connaît pas, et pourtant… qu’elle ressent jusqu’au plus profond de sa peau. Ses mains, sa voix, sa présence. Chaque rêve est un souffle de plaisir, un vertige de désir, un secret murmuré entre deux silences. Mais chaque matin, il disparaît. Jusqu’au jour où elle le croise. Dans la vraie vie. Même regard sombre et doux. Même sourire qui trouble. Il ne la reconnaît pas. Pourtant, il la regarde… comme on regarde quelqu’un qu’on aurait déjà aimé. Et si ces rêves étaient plus que des fantasmes ? Et s’ils cachaient une mémoire ancienne, une mission oubliée… ou un piège ? Parce que ce lien brûlant les pousse l’un vers l’autre. Mais le destin, lui, ne fait jamais de cadeaux. Entre amour cosmique, sensualité et secrets enfouis, une histoire où le désir flirte avec la fatalité.

La vie de Mu Li a subi un changement radical le jour où elle a été reconnue par la famille Mu. Bien qu'elle ait eu du mal à s'adapter au début, elle a découvert qu'elle avait un autre fiancé ! De plus, c'était son ennemi juré qu'elle avait arnaqué d'un milliard ! Non, elle doit rompre ce mariage ! Cependant, quelqu'un l'a plaquée contre la porte et a déclaré : " Tu m'as arnaqué d'argent, et tu veux fuir ?" Mu Li a répondu d'un ton ferme: "Non, je n'ai pas d'argent non plus." "Si tu n'as pas d'argent, alors utilise-toi pour rembourser ta dette." En disant cela, il l'a emmenée de force avec lui...

“Jayden! For heaven’s sake, we can’t make love. I’m way above your age!!” “We both know we want this,” he whispered against my earlobes, his fingers crawling under my skin. He doesn't want to take no for an answer. “You’ve been my secret crush right from when I met you, up until now.” ——— I was supposed to marry the man I’d loved since I was a child. But one brutal truth destroyed everything and I walked away from the altar — humiliated, broken, and alone. That night, my world fell apart again. But when I opened my eyes in the hospital, the first thing I saw was Jayden Sterlings. A twenty-five-year-old. Intelligent. Insufferably arrogant and far too young for me. Yet— somehow, he’s dangerously charming for my mental health. He offered me protection when I needed it most. “A secret marriage with no emotions and no strings attached. Just my own safety.” But living under the same roof with Jayden is dangerous in a different way. The kind that tempts you to forget every rule you’d sworn you’d follow. His touch burns through every wall I’ve built around myself. His voice makes my heart race too fast. And the way he looks at me makes me completely forget my own name. But when a terrifying secret about Jayden comes to the surface, I'm left with a difficult choice. Walking away from everything again… Or falling for the man I was never supposed to want.

Caitlin, jeune diplômée en quête d’indépendance, quitte le cocon protecteur de son oncle pour commencer une nouvelle vie. Mais dès son arrivée dans une ville inconnue, son chemin croise celui de Ronnie, un milliardaire arrogant et mystérieux. Leur rencontre explosive, faite de confrontations et de rancunes, tourne bientôt au piège : une montre brisée, une dette colossale et un contrat forcé font de Caitlin bien plus qu’une simple employée. Ronnie lui impose une condition insensée : devenir à la fois sa secrétaire… et son esclave personnelle. Prisonnière d’un jeu de pouvoir où chaque regard est une provocation et chaque geste un défi, Caitlin doit choisir entre sa liberté et le seul souvenir qui lui reste de ses parents disparus. Mais derrière l’arrogance glaciale de Ronnie se cache un secret, et derrière la rébellion de Caitlin, une force qu’elle ignore encore. Leur haine brûlante pourrait-elle se transformer en quelque chose d’encore plus dangereux ? Ou bien ce jeu cruel les mènera-t-il à leur perte ?

”Mr. President, your wife sent over the divorce papers.” ”How much alimony is she asking for?” ”Actually, she’s offering to pay ‘you’ alimony.” Two years ago, he’d thought her the perfect wife: sweet, submissive, the kind of woman who’d make a lovely accessory to his life. She’d thought him the ideal husband: a handsome, workaholic billionaire who’d leave her alone. She married him, but after divorce, it came out to be a marriage of convenience. No strings attached. Just a secret deal. But now, after the divorce…. “Mr. President, the mastermind behind our competition is… your ex-wife.” “Mr. President, the person who saved you earlier—pretty sure it was her.” “Mr. President…” “I want to know everything about my wife’s secret life, NOW!” “Sir… we found nothing. She’s completely off the radar,”

« Dis-moi d’arrêter. » Sa voix était basse, du genre à s’enrouler autour de sa colonne vertébrale et à rendre chaque souffle péché. « Tu ne le feras pas », murmura-t-elle. Il sourit — lent, cruel, dévastateur. « Tu as raison. » Il n’était jamais censé la toucher. Elle n’était jamais censée le désirer. Il y a trois ans, Maddox Steinfeld était devenu le tuteur d’Adeline Monroe — son salut, son filet de sécurité, sa cage. Il était la puissance incarnée : silencieux, discipliné, inébranlable. Le genre d’homme capable de tuer de ses mains et de l’envelopper dans ses bras pour l’endormir avec ces mêmes mains. Mais le désir ne demande pas la permission. Il s’insinue, lent et venimeux, jusqu’à ce qu’un moment volé transforme la protection en possession. À présent, chaque règle qu’ils avaient construite est brisée. Chaque regard, une promesse. Chaque toucher, une menace. Il est l’homme qui avait juré de la protéger. Mais dans le monde de Maddox, la sécurité est un mensonge — et l’amour, le piège le plus dangereux. Parce que lorsqu’il la prendra enfin, ce ne sera pas avec douceur. Ce sera total. Et une fois qu’il l’aura… il n’y aura plus d’échappatoire.
