Dive into this exciting story, and you will discover this and other secrets.

MY CRUSH BANDIT Chapter 1 THE BRIDE ALONE

A dream wedding, a white and illuminated church, full seats, and television news cameras; I was the bride; I wore a white dress with rhinestones; it seemed strange that my groom did not arrive; perhaps it was a Sicilian custom; perhaps it was my freckles? I don't think so because my many suitors have praised them along with my honey-colored eyes, my brown hair, and my toned body. Although I am not very tall, I am not small either. I have come to the conclusion that I am a Colombian beauty, a bombshell, which means that I would not because I am ugly.

The orchestra of the moment kept playing their repertoire; they already felt forced. I calmed down, thinking that they wanted to avoid their most successful song, which talks about heartbreak. I felt that the bouquet was getting heavier, and the heels, those heels that I chose to try to surpass, wanting to eclipse him somehow, now charged rent to my feet.

Furthermore, I look at the door, wanting a whirlwind to come in and take me to Oz or somewhere; possibly this cretin had the same idea as me: run out Before the wedding, and if I execute it,

The priest looks at me in silence, like everyone else. Although I hear murmurs, I only see long faces and closed mouths. It already looks like a funeral. I don't know what to do. Perhaps if I drink the wine to consecrate it and start dancing in the holy water fountain, I will draw some smiles from the guests. That would be better than stopping my crying.

I can't believe I'm looking at the door; it looks like a painting by some surrealist painters. An elegant car arrives, comes fast, and suddenly breaks. I hope it's him; by God, it's him. I can't focus well; the tears in my eyes distort me. It's a man dressed in black. I feel like fainting.

As I regain consciousness, I see everyone around me, I look for the one who came in asking,

"Who came in? Is it Angelo?"

"It was me, Mrs. Ximena; I am Mr. Angelo's lawyer. I brought you some documents." He takes some documents out of a briefcase and says to me,

"These are the prenuptial agreements; I'm sorry I didn't square this before; also, a marriage certificate duly filled out; besides, he sends you a thousand apologies for not showing up for the marriage."

"No, this is unfair; what a lack of seriousness! Why are you doing this to me?" I exploded furiously, throwing the documents.

My parents hug me, trying to minimize my crying, while the lawyer angrily shouts,

"I'm not to blame; who knows what you would do? You must be bad for..."

"Shut your mouth, you piece of garbage; the poor girl is right; Angelo will listen to me." Don Joseph, the grandfather of the groom that everyone respected to a point of veneration, seemed to have magical powers because the face of the shoddy lawyer went from being red with exaltation to whitish with fear and he answered,

"A thousand pardons, I got carried away; the truth is, I am also very stressed with this matter; I don't understand Angelo's reasons for acting this way; I ask you to please excuse me; I am just another servant; I came prepared for this; and I brought more copies just in case."

I calmed down, and I read the papers that I took out with his trembling hands. The first paragraph says that if he were to die of unnatural causes, I would be detained while the guilty parties were determined, and if they did not appear, I would be the main suspect. In addition to having no right to any of the assets or compensation from Angelo or anyone related to him or his family,

"How rude!" I exclaimed, "I am not an opportunist, and even less a murderer!"

"Sorry, my lady; I repeat, I am only a humble servant," says the braggart, trembling.

The grandfather, Don Joseph, asks me to let him read them and exclaims,

"What's the meaning of this, that Angelo will hear me? Cancel everything!"

I feel some satisfaction; everyone will judge him; he was the one who stood me up, that little man, I put my face up; this is one more adversity, and since I was a little girl, I have defeated them. This is not going to be my Waterloo. I look at everyone; the contracted faces and diffuse looks darken the atmosphere. When I look at my parents, they don't deserve this. I have to give them the pride of marrying me on this day, as they expected. Besides all the other things at stake, in the end, what interests me the least about that gentleman is his filthy money; he can swallow it all if he wants, but I have better goals. That's why, in that instant before an outburst of madness or haughtiness, sponsored by revenge and hatred, I agree to sign, saying,

"Don Joseph, don't get upset; I will sign all those expletives. If there is a wedding, I have word and honor. I apologize to everyone present, and I will do my best to be your best hostess. Please turn the page. Let the joy come. It's a party. Besides, the people in charge of the party also eat, and surely they have already committed what they will earn serving the tables. Gentlemen of the orchestra, please play your song that sounds on all the radio stations."

I signed each paper without reading it much, since each sentence that I managed to grasp felt like a blow. That bear treated me worse than Cain. Each thing I will keep in a chest with which I will break his mother when I can, well, I will be careful not to eliminate him. I do not want to have to spend a few years of my life locked up in a prison for someone who is not worth it.

When I finish signing the agreements, Don Joseph comes up to me, grabs my elbows, and very affectionately comments:

"If you want, you know you have my blessing. I wish I were a few years younger. I would not hesitate for a second to take your hand. Please, let's go to the celebration. I would like you to let me accompany you in the car of the newlyweds. I do not want you to look strange alone, although I do not want people to whisper that I am an old cradle robber with a young grave robber. Sorry if I offend you."

"Not at all, Don Joseph; your presence honors me; it's a pity that Angelo didn't get anything similar to you."

"It is possible that he fell out of the cradle or was given a bad tooth when he was a baby."

We left laughing non-stop, snatching the space from the sadness; that wonderful man was an oasis in my desert of bitterness. When we arrived at the grand hacienda where the party would take place, the welcoming committee was perplexed, not because of my beauty but because, as Don Joseph predicted, they thought I was my sugar daddy. The party ran in relative calm; I happened to be the clown, and I had to paint a fake smile throughout the evening. Fortunately, I found a delicious Chilean drink, twice my age, which gave me comfort, and in my imagination, I prepared different reactions for when Angelo arrived.

In the end, it turned out that the wine ran out or finished with me, and the next thing I knew, I was being carried like a baby into a beautiful hotel suite, which seemed to have gold railings.

THE COLOMBIAN ALPHA

THE COLOMBIAN ALPHA

Werewolf

5.0

It centers on the relationship between the heir of the pack and the mafia, and his mate, a poor human woman, who is not accepted by the Alpha leader. The wolf father only wants his son to fall in love with one of their own or, at least, with an important human like a queen or someone from a wealthy family. Mariana and Alberto must find a way for the Alpha father to accept their relationship and seek a cure for the bite from a jaguar man, as well as transform her into a she-wolf. They also need to take down enemy cartels, and the business, and escape the police. When they first met, he didn't accept that his mate was a human, and she couldn't believe werewolves existed. But love forced them to accept each other, and they considered transforming her to please his father, although he didn't want to turn her into a wolf until they were married. She gets infected by a jaguar man, and they must seek a priestess with the power to heal such curses so they can be together. Mariana is kidnapped by the jaguar men, who kill Alberto in the attack, but fortunately, an old wolf knows a ritual to revive him. Upon returning to life, he is reborn with more powers. While in captivity, Mariana discovers that Alberto's mother and brother, whom he believed dead, are actually prisoners of the shamans. She manages to escape with the help of a prince of the jaguar men, who falls in love with her. An enemy kills the Alpha father, leaving Alberto in charge, but business and the pursuit of avenging his father consume him completely. He neglects his relationship with Mariana, who meets an enemy wolf that forces an encounter with her, as he has a mission to win her over. The situation becomes complicated when he falls in love with her, and she is kidnapped again by the evil shaman to force Alberto to hand over all his wealth and business. Fortunately, Mariana frees herself, wandering through the jungle until she is found by the protagonist's men. Mariana becomes pregnant with six babies, but the birth is very complicated, leaving her in a coma. She wakes up six weeks later to discover that the police have surrounded her husband and captured him. Her children have been taken to a lab to study their strange wolf-like characteristics. She finds a way to free her children while Alberto escapes, but he dies while fleeing, leaving Mariana alone and desperate with her children. She has to hide because she is pursued even by her husband's former subordinates, who want to take over his business. Alberto miraculously survives and reappears. During this time, he was captured by an obsessive former girlfriend. He frees himself, swears his love to Mariana, and eliminates the ex. He then dedicates himself to dismantling the organization, digs up all his fortune, and donates part of it to charity. Likewise, he rescues Luisa from being devoured by her enemies, wins her back, and they marry in a beautiful full moon wedding, where he finally transforms her into one of them. She becomes the Luna of the pack and gets pregnant again.

Secret Triplets: The Billionaire's Second Chance

Roderic Penn

I stood at my mother's open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest's voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone-he brought Charla with him. He claimed she'd had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

Landslide

My bank account showed exactly $42.18, and my student loan notifications were flashing red. I lived in a sweltering Queens apartment with my Aunt Lydia, where the air was thick with the smell of stale frying oil and the constant threat of being homeless. Lydia handed me a grainy photo of a man twice my age and told me she had already "sold" me to him. He was a dry cleaner looking for a wife, and in exchange for my hand, he would pay off her credit cards and my debt. If I didn't show up for the date that night, my boxes would be on the curb by midnight. I arrived at the cafe in a state of panic, my selective mutism making it impossible to even breathe. In the crowded room, I accidentally sat at the wrong table. Instead of the man from the photo, I found myself facing Gerhard Holcomb—the cold, terrifyingly handsome billionaire whose family owned the very museum where I worked. He didn't send me away; instead, he studied my trembling hands and offered me a different deal: a two-year contract marriage, a two-million-dollar payout, and a strict clause forbidding any children. I signed the papers and moved into his Park Avenue penthouse, thinking I was finally safe. But when I went back to the old apartment to retrieve the only memento of my dead parents, Lydia lashed out, leaving me bleeding from a head wound. Gerhard’s retaliation was absolute—he had her arrested and her building foreclosed on within hours, claiming he was simply "protecting his assets." As I recovered in his silent, glass-walled home, I saw a call from a famous socialite flash on his phone, and a cold truth settled in my gut. I wasn't just a wife; I was a placeholder, a silent shield used to fend off the women from his past. I looked at the massive pink diamond on my finger and realized the silence I had lived in my whole life was about to become my most expensive prison. I had traded a life of poverty for a high-stakes game of shadows, and now I had to survive the man who claimed to own me.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

Madel Cerda

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch-a titan of industry and my best friend's father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

Burned by Poison, Saved by the Devil

Burned by Poison, Saved by the Devil

Gale Kaaya

My cousin Hailey paid a dock worker to assault me just to ruin my engagement. To survive the military-grade aphrodisiac she poisoned me with, I stumbled into a walk-in freezer and threw myself onto the only source of cold I could find-a man paralyzed by unnatural hypothermia. It was a desperate, primal exchange of my heat for his ice just to keep my heart from stopping. But when Hailey threw open the heavy iron door, leading my fiancé and the entire Bolton family to witness my "shame," her triumphant grin instantly vanished. She hadn't caught me with a low-life thug. She had caught me straddling Demetrius Maddox, the ruthless Iron King of Chicago. The air in the room dropped to absolute zero. My grandmother screamed in horror, and my father turned the color of ash. Hailey, blinded by jealousy, tried to double down. She pointed a manicured finger at the deadliest man in the city and called him a "nameless muscle" I picked up to defile the family name. She didn't realize she had just signed her own death warrant. I didn't cower. I realized this was the only chance to survive the family that wanted me dead. I walked up to the Devil himself, my body still humming with the poison, and looked him in the eye. "Kill me, and the cold inside you wins," I whispered, knowing he was dying from the inverse of my own poison. "I am the only doctor who knows how to cure you." Demetrius tightened his hand around my throat, his dark eyes assessing my worth. "Prove it," he growled. I turned back to my trembling cousin and signaled the enforcer to hand me the whip.
