heiress

They called Hàng Wàng Wùjī the perfect heir. To the broken yào Wèi Yīlíng, he was the warden who held his leash, the hand that fed him, and the only warmth in a frozen world. When Wùjī is murdered for getting too close to his clan’s darkest secret, Wèi is left with nothing but a piece of cold violet jade and a resolve forged in despair. He will not bring his keeper back to life. He will go into the past and rewrite the tragedy that made him. But the past is a labyrinth of silent horrors. Every step back—from the public humiliations to the private violations—shows Wèi that Wùjī’s suffering was not an accident, but a design. To save him, Wèi must unravel a legacy of cruelty so profound it stretches back to a sin against the heavens themselves. The closer he gets to the root, the more he risks: not just his own existence, but the memory of the love that became his reason to live.

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!! Bullied, unwanted and neglected all her life, Theodora thought only one thing could make her regain her honour - Win the blood Tournament and Gain her father's favour as his heir. But things don't go as planned. Instead, her father rewards her victory with a sentence far worse than death: Betrothal to Cain Pendragon, the ruthless Dark Alpha King whose names alone makes the whole realm tremble. Refusing to become a pawn in a monster's game, Theo disappears. Her refuge is Gravemont Academy - an elite all- male training academy where the weak is trampled upon, and heirs are forged into Kings. With the help of her best friend, Eric, whom she is hopelessly in love with, she disguises herself as her cousin and Joins the Academy. The intention was to lay low, but not when she was paired with a Dark-eyed roommate, Hezekiah Pendragon, the son of Cain and Eric's little brother. He reeks of sin and violence, with a lethal promise in his gaze. And of course, Sylas Veylor - her Homeroom professor with piercing blue eyes, with a deadly calm and shadows darker than anyone could decipher. Now, she's stuck between the both of them, trying to hide not just her secret identity but an even darker secret of hers that could shatter bloodlines, ignite war, and without a doubt, change the fate of the werewolf realm! And the Dark Alpha is closer than she thinks. Much closer. Excerpt from the book: Zeke's voice dropped to barely a whisper. "You think your heart belongs to Eric…" His thumb brushed the edge of her pillow, so close to her cheek his knuckles grazed her breath, "…but your heart hasn't met me properly yet," Theo's throat bobbed. "I'm not giving you up, Hellcat. Not tonight. Not tomorrow. Not until you look at me, really look at me, and your heart says my name," Her lips parted, and a shaky breath escaped. Zeke straightened slightly but he didn't step back, "I won't touch you without permission anymore, and I won't force anything," He swallowed hard, his eyes burning with a lethal promise, "But mark my words Hellcat, the day I catch you staring at me the same way you look at Eric, or i sniff a whisper of my name in your mind, I will let loose and god helps anyone who gets in my way," He exhaled softly. "And trust me, Hellcat…" His orange eyes glowed faintly, his wolf shimmering beneath the surface, "…you will," Another Excerpt from the book: Something fluttered in her chest and she slowly looked up at him with trembling eyes. Sylas looked back at her, "I've never wanted anything more. I know I'm older—far older," he said, his voice low and steady, like he was confessing a sin he had no intention of repenting for, "but that changes nothing for me." Theo's heartbeat stuttered again. Sylas took one step and faced her properly, "When I'm with you," he continued, "The chaos stops. The noise stops and the world stops trying to tear itself apart," His eyes stared into hers, open and unflinchingly honest, "You are the first thing in a very long time that doesn't feel like a war," Theo's breath hitched, and his voice deepened with a quiet tremor beneath the calm, "Do you know what that means for a man like me?" Her throat tightened and she shook her head.

Isn’t she a bully? Then why is she suddenly so sweet to me? ... All my life, I’ve remembered her as my nemesis, one of my greatest fears back in high school my wicked desk mate, my evil roommate. I would shiver at the mere mention of her name, ELENA MORGAN, even while trying to keep my composure. There was something about her presence the quiet danger in her gaze, the way she carried power like a crown that always made me tremble. Seven years later, fate played its cruel trick. I met her again, Elena Morgan not as my classmate this time, but as my boss. The heiress to one of New York’s biggest empires, the Solaria Group. I had no choice but to work under her as her secretary. At first, I tried to brace my mind, believing she would still be the tough, ruthless girl I remembered. But I should’ve guarded my heart instead… Because she isn’t just powerful she’s sweet in ways that burn slowly, tenderly, until resistance feels impossible. Slowly, I begin to see the truth the reason behind her coldness in school, and how I had mistaken her quiet protection for cruelty.

[Love After Marriage] Proud and Pretends to be Sweet Heiress VS Sexy and Arrogant Retired Racer Natalie Vaughn took a liking to the blind date arranged by her family at first sight. She doesn’t like the smell of smoke, but she likes the scent on Zane Thorne after he's smoked. She’s not obsessed with hands, but she likes the sexy protruding veins on Zane Thorne’s hand. She’s utterly captivated by Zane Thorne’s lazy, casual yet explosively sexy demeanor when he smokes and drinks. To her, Zane Thorne always has an inexplicable attraction. Natalie Vaughn said to her best friend: “He looks fucking handsome when he smokes.” “If given the chance, I must touch his hand properly.” The veins protruding on Zane Thorne’s hand flow with blood that’s enchanted for her. So she uses her captivating peach blossom eyes, sometimes pretending to be obedient in front of Zane Thorne, sometimes as proud as a thorned wild rose. She’s good at using those slightly watery eyes to look pitiful, staring straight at the man to express her interest, yet never stating it outright. Step by step, leading him into the trap. Zane Thorne thinks this little girl is of a proud nature, not weak, never making a sound even if in pain. He can always tell when she's pretending to be sweet, and he always acts like he doesn’t understand with his straightforward male nature. But Natalie Vaughn’s eyes are truly captivating, occasionally leading him willingly into her trap. In the end, he is truly ensnared by her, unable to break free. Later, Zane Thorne said, "As long as you look at me, I just want to embrace you tightly." Natalie Vaughn thinks, getting a man like Zane Thorne captivated isn’t wasted effort with her pretending and coaxing.

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!Ahmet's laughter was like a slap in the face. "You think you're in a position to negotiate with me?" he sneered. "I don't think so, Asli. You'll do what I say, or suffer the consequences. Do you want more time to outsmart me? No.” She could play his game. She certainly could do that before she finally killed him. A mischievous grin formed on her lips. "What would you gain from sleeping with me?" she asked, trying to keep her tone neutral. "You're not exactly known for your romantic conquests. And we're rivals, not to mention the fact that our families would kill us if they found out." She paused, her eyes narrowing. "So, what's the real motive here? What could you possibly gain from this?" There was a pause on the other end of the line, and for a moment, Asli wondered if she had caught him off guard. But then, Ahmet's smooth voice came back, dripping with confidence. "I’m glad to know you are well-informed about my romantic conquests. Let's just say, Asli, that I have my reasons. And as for what I'd gain… well, that's for me to know and you to find out." His tone sent a shiver down her spine, and she knew she had to tread carefully. She wasn’t going to win this against him. “Show me what proof you have and I will give in to your demands.” With that, she hung up the call, feeling a small sense of satisfaction at being the one to end the conversation this time. She was the only woman in the male-dominated Mafia world. Did he think he could subdue her so easily?

When the "Queen of Jewels" needed a marriage of convenience to save her empire, she chose the one man who ever dared to tell her: "Bread comes before pearls." Elisa Rossi, youngest ruler of a jewelry empire. She possessed diamond-sharp judgment, presiding over a multibillion-euro business dynasty. With eighteen months left until her thirtieth birthday, the cold clause of the family trust tightened around her neck: "Marry before thirty, or forfeit all shares." The arranged match was Alessandro, heir to a banking empire—polished, shrewd, and certain of victory. But Elisa offered a very different contract. "I need a husband who will vanish cleanly in three years." Her choice fell on the man in a worn sweater, tucked away in a small-town archive. Lorenzo Costa, archivist of San Gimignano. On his left ring finger rested a plain platinum band, passed down through generations, inscribed inside with his family’s creed: "Il pane prima delle perle." Bread comes before pearls. His father’s critical illness demanded a fortune in medical bills. When Elisa slid the contract toward him, he calmly added three conditions: "Schedule the surgery at once. Establish an independent trust. And—respect my boundaries." A marriage of mutual necessity began under the glass dome of Milan. She gave him a signet ring of gold, a symbol of power and transaction. He placed on her finger his platinum band, imprinted with legacy and truth. When corporate ambushes, family betrayal, and hidden clauses exploded at once— on a cliff’s edge, with a gun aimed at her heart— Lorenzo threw himself before the bullet. His final words: "Now do you believe it? Some contracts were never meant to be transactions." What began as calculation ended as a choice made with a life. When the queen of jewels learned to feel the warmth of bread, when the archivist redefined the worth of pearls, they finally understood: The strongest thrones are not built on roses, nor guarded by thorns— but rise from the ruins where two real people choose to rebuild, together. —A story of how lies can give birth to truth, how calculation loses to the heart, and why sometimes the one who saves you is the very person you first saw as a tool.

I’ve already lit the fire that will burn your empire to ash.” Roman fell to his knees, reaching for the hem of her gown. “Vivienne, please! I was blinded... I’ll make it right. I still love you!” Lucien Hamilton stepped forward, his hand on Vivienne’s waist as he stared down at Roman. “Touch her again, West, and I won’t just ruin you. I’ll make sure you lose your life along with everything you own.”
