The Blind Alpha's Rejected Savior
Werewolf Five years. That's how long my Mate, Alpha Courtland, locked me in the Silver Mines for killing his "true love," Kinsley.
But Kinsley wasn't dead. She was hiding in the pack house, living in luxury while I rotted.
When I was finally released, broken and dying, Kinsley framed me again. To protect his "pregnant" mistress, Courtland stood by and watched as she threw my ten-year-old brother off a bridge.
That was the moment my love died. I climbed to the hospital roof, accepted Courtland's rejection, and jumped to my death right before his eyes.
It took my suicide for him to find the truth—that I was the White Wolf who had healed his blindness, not her. That he had tortured his innocent Mate.
He spent three years drowning in regret, his brain rotting from Bond Decay, praying for death.
Until he saw me at a gala.
I wasn't Ana anymore. I was Amelia, the fiancée of a rival Alpha.
He knelt, begging for six months of my time to soothe his dying bond, offering me his entire pack as inheritance.
I agreed. Not to save him, but to watch him die.
And to secure the legacy for the secret son I was carrying—his son. Not Just A Nanny: My Comeback
Modern I spent six years raising his twins, believing I was his wife.
Then the bank manager slid a document across the desk.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Dunlap. You aren't listed as the mother. Eliana Dudley is."
I drove to Gavin's office, desperate for answers.
Instead, I found him with his high school sweetheart, Eliana, sitting on his lap.
I froze as I heard him laugh.
"Alex was just a comfortable alternative," he told her. "A glorified nanny to keep the seat warm until you came back."
My world shattered.
But it got worse.
At the twins' birthday party, the children I had loved like my own screamed that they hated me.
His seven-year-old son shoved me down the stone steps.
I hit the ground hard. Pain exploded in my stomach.
I looked up, begging Gavin for help.
He didn't move. He just wrapped his arm around Eliana and turned away.
"Come on, kids," he said coldly. "Let's go cut the cake. Alex is just making a scene."
I lay on the cold patio, bleeding out the baby he didn't even know I was carrying, listening to them sing "Happy Birthday" inside.
He thought I would fade away. He thought a check would fix it.
But when I woke up in the hospital, the woman who loved him was dead.
I signed the divorce papers, walked out, and built an empire he could never touch.
Now, three years later, he's begging at my feet.
"I made a mistake," he sobs.
I look at my new husband and smile.
"I know. And now you have to live with it." The Canary Who Learned To Fly
Mafia I died on a Tuesday.
It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father.
I was twenty years old.
He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him—my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit—watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant.
He chose her. He always chose her.
And then, I woke up.
Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for.
This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London—an exile disguised as a severance package—I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice.
He didn't know he was talking to a ghost.
He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal.
He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder.
That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry.
She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts.
So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie.
I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane.
But I will not be a victim.
This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter.
This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain. My Marriage License, His Public Fall
Modern For five years, I was the secret wife of billionaire Chace Bentley, hiding in the shadows because he swore it was the only way to protect me from his ruthless family.
But when his security guards dragged me out of his gala by my hair, breaking my ribs while the crowd jeered at the "delusional stalker," Chace didn't save me.
He stood on the balcony, smoking a cigarette, and watched me bleed with cold, dead eyes.
I thought I had hit rock bottom in that jail cell, until I found the documents in his safe.
A prenuptial agreement with a socialite named Celina.
And a trust fund for their future children.
When I confronted him, he didn't beg for forgiveness.
He laughed.
"Everything you own, the clothes on your back, the roof over your head, it's all because of me. My charity."
He thought he had broken me.
He thought I was just a disposable pawn in his rise to power.
But he forgot that I still held the one thing that could destroy him: our original marriage license.
On the day of his grand engagement announcement, I didn't hide.
I walked onto the stage, took the microphone, and introduced myself to the world.
"I'm Gracelyn Weeks, and I'm Chace Bentley's wife." Peace After Pain: My Unwritten Blueprint
Modern The algorithm knew my fiancé was cheating on me before I did. It led me, five days before my wedding, to a secret Instagram account. My maid of honor was wearing my wedding dress.
The account was a shrine to her three-year affair with my fiancé, Arden.
They had crafted a perfect narrative for their followers: they were tragic soulmates, and I was the cold, calculating villain keeping them apart.
The comments were full of hate for me.
But the final twist of the knife was seeing that my best friend, Dallas, had "liked" a comment wishing I'd have an "accident" and break my leg again.
I had saved his life. My family had saved hers from ruin. Why this elaborate, public cruelty?
On my wedding day, I was a no-show.
Instead, as the elite of New York society watched, the ballroom screens lit up with a presentation I' d prepared, exposing every photo, every text, and every single lie. The Architect of My Ruin
Romance For ten years, my life was a straight line towards one goal: winning the National Design Excellence Award, my ticket to study under the world' s greatest architects in Italy. But on the night I reached for my dream, it was snatched away by the last people I expected.
My fiancé, Mark Johnson, the lead judge, awarded the prestigious prize to Olivia Chen, a woman with no design experience, who had submitted an amateur sketch of a "dream closet." The polite applause sounded distant as I watched her embrace the trophy, while Mark beamed beside her, never once looking at me.
As I confronted him, his bodyguards dragged me away, my career and my decade of dedication dismissed with a wave of his hand. Later, I overheard him tell Olivia that our engagement was merely a "debt" he had to pay, crushing every "I love you" and shared dream into dust. He laughed, calling my decade of effort a "hobby" he was willing to fund.
The public backlash was immediate, but Mark, feigning sincerity, tried to minimize the scandal. He then threatened to cut off funding for my mother' s critical medical care, holding her life hostage to control me. Blacklisted from the design industry, I sold everything and took a humiliating job as a barmaid.
Then, Mark and Olivia walked into my new workplace, and he deliberately humiliated me, throwing money at me and demanding I "entertain" them. When I refused, Olivia faked a theft, and Mark, seizing the opportunity, blamed me. In the chaos, I was shoved, hitting my head and collapsing. In the hospital, Mark brought a gaudy diamond necklace, expecting me to be bought. But I wasn't broken. I was done. A Ring Crushed, A Heart Broken
Sci-fi My shoulder felt like it was tearing apart, dangling precariously from a skyscraper' s edge, the city lights smeared far below. Wind howled, drowning out everything but the terror that coursed through me. My feet scraped against cold, smooth glass-nothing to stand on but the abyss.
Then, a sharp yank on my collar pulled my head back, forcing my chin up. It was Olivia, the woman I' d spent three simulated years trying to save, her face pale and hard, eyes devoid of warmth. "Look at me, Noah," she commanded, her voice cutting through the roar.
She wore the black dress we picked out together, now looking like funeral attire. "You didn' t save me," she hissed, her grip tightening on my shredded shoulder. "You played God. You pulled my strings, moved me around like a pawn in your own pathetic little hero fantasy." My attempts to speak her name were pathetic croaks, lost to the wind.
"He was getting married tonight, you know," she whispered, her voice cracking. "Liam. He' s marrying someone else. He was mine! My beautiful disaster. My pain. He was mine to lose. Not yours to take away." With a guttural scream, she dragged me closer, and my ring, meant as a promise, fell from my pocket.
She watched it fall, then let go of my collar, stepping on the velvet box, crushing metal and stone. "None of this was real," she said, her voice flat and dead. "You' re not real. Your help, your kindness... it was all a lie. A cage." Then, she shoved the mangled ring into my mouth, forcing me to swallow it, my own failure.
"Get out," she growled, pushing me with all her rage. My feet were already in the air, my body past the point of no return. As the city rushed up to meet me, everything went white, and I gasped to find myself in a sterile white pod, still feeling every bit of her betrayal. His Secret Fiancée, My Secret Fiancé
Romance For five years, I poured my life into Apex Holdings, into Mr. Harrison, my mentor, my confidant, the man everyone assumed I' d marry.
I walked into the company meeting expecting a promotion, maybe even a proposal, only to watch my world shatter as he beamed, announcing his engagement to a doe-eyed intern half my age.
The room applauded, their polite smiles hiding victorious smirks, and the intern, Bethany, held up her massive diamond, looking at me with triumphant pity.
Humiliated, I announced my own whirlwind marriage, but my supposed husband was a stranger, hired on the spot.
He refused my resignation, sabotaged my projects, and when I finally forced him to sign, his new fiancée, Bethany, deliberately opened my parrot' s cage, and Mr. Harrison, in a fit of rage, kicked my beloved Sky, the last gift from him.
He accused me of faking my pain, while everyone whispered about my jealousy, leaving me isolated, just like after my parents died, leaving me to question if my five years of loyalty meant nothing.
Desperate for a clean break, I accepted a marriage proposal from Mr. Davies' s son, a man I hadn' t seen since childhood, hoping this drastic step would finally erase Mr. Harrison from my life. The Dog Stays: And So Does My Revenge
Romance For seven years, I was the perfect political wife, seamlessly orchestrating every gala, every public appearance.
I stood behind my Congressman husband, Ethan Scott, a silent, smiling prop in our opulent D.C. townhouse.
Then, at our annual fundraising event, he tapped a glass for silence, his arm draped possessively around his pregnant mistress, Sabrina.
"Jocelyn and I have agreed to a divorce," he announced, his eyes cold, dismissive, while the room gasped.
He expected me to nod, to accept the humiliating settlement, to stay on as a "household consultant" for her.
But I refused, declaring I was leaving that night.
He laughed, assuming I was dependent on him, that I' d be crawling back.
Then Sabrina' s cruel sneer cut through the air: "The dog stays."
Buddy, my golden retriever, my last connection to the child I lost, was yanked from my side.
Sabrina feigned a bite, screamed, and Ethan, without hesitation, ordered Buddy to be put down.
My world shattered. This wasn' t just about Buddy; it ripped open an old wound.
Sabrina had given my premature son, Leo, a deadly teddy bear in his NICU crib. Ethan had blamed me for his death, choosing her over our grief.
Now, he was literally sentencing my last piece of family to death for her.
My tears were gone, replaced by a cold, hard resolve. I was trapped, sick, and nearly burned alive in my room, thanks to Sabrina' s arson, but a hidden message from Andrew, my childhood sweetheart, illuminated a path forward.

Fantasy I was Elara, a woman from the Appalachian mountains, dubbed 'the hillbilly cure.' I was brought to save Julian Thorne, a paralyzed heir. I poured my life force into him, healing his broken body, and against all odds, I fell deeply in love. We even had three unique children-precious, living eggs, humming with a power few understood.
But once healed, Julian scorned me, seeing only a primitive necessity, not a wife. Fueled by his jealous stepsister, Cassidy, he orchestrated a cruel spectacle at a gala celebrating his 'miracle.' He forced me into a sadistic egg hunt: identify my children among a hundred fakes, knowing for every wrong guess, one would be brutally smashed.
Under the blinding lights, my heart shattered. The first wrong guess ended with a sickening crunch. The second egg, sickeningly, was whisked away to be an 'exotic omelet'-its psychic death tore through me, leaving me writhing in agony. When Cassidy moved to burn my last child, I chose a different path.

Horror My life was perfect, filled with the laughter of my five-year-old twins, Noah and Mia.
We were building a couch fort, our own little world.
Then, her Tesla pulled into the driveway.
Chloe, my estranged wife, brought not just herself, but Leo, her old high school flame, into our home.
When my innocent children stood up to the stranger, Chloe' s temper flared.
"You two need a timeout," she snapped, dragging them, whimpering, into the soundproof wine cellar.
My gut screamed, but she slammed the heavy door, the lock clicking shut.
I begged, I pleaded, pounding on the door, while from the living room, I heard Chloe's laughter with Leo.
Then, seeing Leo's Instagram post – an ultrasound of their baby – shattered me.
A new life, while mine were trapped.
My desperate efforts to rescue Noah and Mia came too late.
The cellar was silent.
Too silent.
I found them, blue-faced, unbreathing, an open bag of nuts nearby.
Their severe peanut allergy.
My world ended.
And Chloe?
She shrieked, accusing me of drama.
At the hospital, after the doctor confirmed they were gone, she called, furious I' d ruined her evening.
Later, she laughed in my face when I told her, believing it was a pathetic manipulation.
My children, who loved her unconditionally, were dead because of her cruelty, and she didn't even care.
How could a mother be so utterly devoid of humanity?
The cremation was quiet, just me, their paternal uncle, and my father-in-law.
But a few hours later, I walked into the house to the sounds of my wife having sex with Leo.
She saw the urns in my hands and dismissed them as "junk."
That was it.
My love, my family, my life – all irrevocably destroyed by the woman I married.
With Mia's drawing of "our family" clutched in my hand, I signed the divorce papers and began to disappear. A Double Life Exposed
Modern The school admissions office. A new chapter for my son, Leo, a fresh start we hoped for.
Then the woman at the desk dropped a bombshell, her voice flat. "Staff Sergeant Mark Johnson already has a child enrolled here."
Mark Johnson was my husband, Leo' s father.
"His son, Ethan Johnson," she continued, "and his wife, Jessica Johnson, is the emergency contact."
Wife? Jessica? The names echoed, cold and sharp, triggering a horrifying flashback.
In another life, this exact scenario had already unfolded, leading to an abyss of deceit and despair.
I remembered Mark' s smooth lies, his flimsy tales of helping a "hero's widow," forcing Leo to be a whispered secret.
Then came the unspeakable: Leo, my sensitive son, vanished from a bus stop.
The frantic calls, the police reports, the agonizing silence.
Weeks later, a horrifying news item: a child found, badly hurt, "two fingers missing."
I never knew if it was Leo.
The torturous uncertainty, Mark' s chilling indifference, his brutal concern for his "reputation" over my grief.
And finally, the river-cold, dark, an attempted escape from the pain.
Now, here I was again, back at the exact start of that soul-crushing nightmare.
The same casual dismissal, the same insidious destruction of my life, my son' s future, unfolding again.
But then, a surge of icy fury consumed me, hardening my resolve into something unbreakable.
This wasn' t a rerun of despair; it was a second chance.
This time, there would be no crumbling, no quiet suffering, no drowning.
Mark Johnson was going to pay.
And I would make sure everyone heard the truth, loud and clear. A Mother's Vengeance: Reclaiming Her Daughter
Billionaires I was supposed to be recovering, sipping green juice at a luxury Arizona retreat, post-car accident.
One scroll on Instagram ripped my perfectly curated world apart.
The girl wearing my daughter Chloe’s bespoke gown at our estate wasn’t Chloe.
It was a stranger, Ashley, who then introduced her ‘mother’ as Brenda Hoskins, the *acting CEO* of *my* company, AuraNova.
In the blurred background, chillingly, was my sweet Chloe, serving drinks, her shoulders slumped, nearly falling as someone bumped her.
My housekeeper dismissed it as ‘a small get-together,’ but the school records told a different story: Chloe was registered as Mrs. Peterson’s granddaughter, and her tuition was shockingly overdue.
My own daughter, reduced to a charity case, while the woman I fired, Brenda Hoskins, ran my billion-dollar company with my husband, Rick, by her side.
When I finally found Chloe, she was thin, bruised, her spirit dim, and shrinking from my touch.
Ashley, the impostor, brazenly claimed my luxurious master suite as ‘her parents’ room.’
Medical tests confirmed the horrifying truth: Chloe was being systematically drugged with hormone blockers and sedatives.
Retrieved security footage revealed the chilling daily reality: Rick and Brenda watched, smiling, as Ashley and her clique humiliated and abused Chloe, turning her into an unwilling house servant.
They hadn't just stolen my company and my life; they were meticulously destroying my daughter’s spirit, erasing her very existence.
My blood ran cold, then boiled with a rage so profound it threatened to shatter me.
But the despair lasted only a second, replaced by pure, unadulterated fury.
They had taken everything, but they were about to learn that nothing burns hotter than a mother’s vengeance. The Bride Who Vanished: A Billionaire's Reckoning
Billionaires My Hamptons wedding to tech mogul Ethan Carter was supposed to be a fairytale, lauded by Page Six and celebrated by all who knew of his apparent devotion. But beneath the dazzling facade, a chilling secret had festered for three years: Ethan’s sordid affair with Instagram influencer Olivia Vance, a truth Olivia herself reveled in exposing through taunting texts, explicit photos, and videos sent directly to my phone.
The lies became unbearable. Then, just hours before I was set to walk down the aisle, Ethan appeared on national television with Olivia, publicly announcing their pregnancy. Mere moments later, I witnessed his entire family, his mother included, gathered at a private beach house, cooing over Olivia’s bump and warmly embracing her as the soon-to-be Mrs. Carter. My world tilted. I was a fool, utterly erased.
The humiliation felt like swallowing broken glass, a raw, open wound. How could an entire family be complicit in such a brazen betrayal, reducing my life to a grotesque charade? But amidst the agony, a cold, hard resolve solidified within me. This was no longer just about escaping my suffocating gilded cage. This was about making Ethan pay dearly. I confirmed the final details with Mr. Jones. A tragic accident. My death. His utter ruin. You might like

The Rise Of The Ugly Luna
Syra Tucker Lyric had spent her life being hated. Bullied for her scarred face and hated by everyone-including her own mate-she was always told she was ugly. Her mate only kept her around to gain territory, and the moment he got what he wanted, he rejected her, leaving her broken and alone.

That night, he left without a word. I saw on a gossip site that he'd gone to pick up his ex-lover, Isadora. Reaching for him through our bond, I wasn't met with his usual coldness, but with her emotions bleeding through him-triumph and smug possession.
The next morning, I went to his office, ready to tell him about our baby, believing our child could fix us. But I stopped when I heard him talking to our Pack Healer about me.
The healer said I looked fragile, that he should care for his mate. My husband laughed.
"You seem to care for her more than I do," Demetri said, his voice dripping with ice. "Do you want me to give her to you? Take her. She's of no use to me."
My world shattered. I wasn't just unloved; I was a thing to be discarded. I looked down at the pregnancy report, the proof of the life inside me, and made a vow. He would never know about our child, and I would sever our bond myself.
