Or is it already too late? Because the Lord Scarpa doesn’t let go. He devours.

I realized my period was two weeks late after going on a trip to the swimming pool with my best friend, Gianna Lowe. Gianna insisted that I take a pregnancy test. I was stunned when I saw the two red lines on the pregnancy stick test. I had a boyfriend, Mitchell Gray, but I was a conservative person, so I still hadn't slept with Mitchell. I couldn't help but wonder whose baby this was. I planned to just terminate the mystery pregnancy, but Mitchell pretended to be worried about my health, offering to marry me and raise the child. It was finally my delivery date. I was lying weakly in the delivery room when Mitchell shoved a pillow over my face and smothered me, roaring, "You slut! Did you think I'd raise another man's child? I'll make you and this illegitimate child pay for everything!" I was too weak to resist since I had just given birth, so Mitchell successfully killed me. I suddenly open my eyes and realize that I have returned to the day I found out about my pregnancy. I am completely determined this time—I have to find out who the father really is!

"I said leave me alone," I yelled through my lungs as I was struggling to breathe. "Sssshhhhh....."  When he leaned closer to my ear, he was serene. "It's fine with me even if you don't love me; I'm not going to ask you to love me; I just want you around me because you're my bride and only I have a right to you," he explained. "So I chose death over being with you," I spat a bitter truth while daring to look him in the eyes, which triggered him even more. "Then die," he said shamelessly. -------------- Sansa Elsher was taken on her wedding day by an Alpha Xavier, who claimed her as his bride by the law of pronouncement of wonder, the law from which she was bound by him even before she was born.

Blurb: Love was supposed to be unconditional but for me, it came with conditions. After three years of marriage to Dominic Rugh, I thought respect was the least I deserved. Instead, I was mocked, belittled and punished for being infertile. I wasn't barren, and I never stopped trying. And on the very day I discovered I was finally pregnant, I returned home to find Dominic in bed with my stepsister. My heart shattered, and my marriage collapsed. They still wouldn't let me go, even though I had nowhere to run to. They punished me cruelly for every small mistake and their mistreatments led to my death and the death of my unborn baby. At least, that's what they thought. Because when I opened my eyes again, I was no longer the woman they tortured–I was reborn. And in this new life, three powerful billionaire men want me and loved me more than Dominic ever could. But my heart has only room for one thing–revenge. Dominic won't see me coming, and I won't stop until he understands what it's like to be destroyed. However, with the devotion of these men around me, I wonder if I can stay loyal to my revenge or let myself be loved.

I had poured my heart into planning the perfect wedding—for my female client. Then I turned a corner and saw her kissing my boyfriend at the stairwell. He chuckled softly. "No wonder you're my wife. You're stunning." She let out a soft laugh. "Your little secret girlfriend still does not know you're marrying me. She actually wished me happiness—can you believe it? So… when are you planning to tell her?" He tilted her chin and said, "Didn't we agree? Once we're married, we each live our own lives. Teresa is the love of my life. I hope you'll keep your mouth shut." She gave a snort of laughter and yanked playfully on his tie. "Relax, babe. As long as you keep treating me right, I won't stir up trouble." I felt like I had plunged into an ice bath. Face pale, hands trembling, I picked up my phone and texted my mentor: [I'm ready to take the transfer to Luminous City.] The reply came not long after: [Three days from now. We'll go together.]
