b:Betrayed and cast out by her own family years ago, Emma Vanderbilt clawed her way back as an anonymous jewelry design prodigy. But just when her talents win her a chance to reclaim her legacy, she finds herself inescapably entangled again with the Emerald Springs elite who destroyed her life - including Daniel Wright, the billionaire father of her secret triplets and the man she was horrifically set up with by her own stepsister Olivia.With the sins of the past threatening to upend their futures, Emma and her children's lives become a high-stakes tangle of cutthroat ambition, deception, and dangerous secrets. In this dazzling saga of privilege and revenge, will the opportunity to rise from the ashes of betrayal allow Emma and Daniel to rewrite their destinies forever?

Chapter 1 A DISTURBING AWAKENING

Emma's body was aching like she had been struck by a car, and her splitting headache was the only sensation she was experiencing as she slowly came to. She furrowed her brows at the discomfort, but she was unable to dismiss it.The man's shape was all that she could see in the darkness, but she could still smell the distinctive Gucci cologne softly permeating the air.As he squeezed his body against her, nipping and kissing her thin neck, the man did not say anything.The morning sun came out as dawn slowly approached.Abruptly, Emma opened her eyes.

She was shocked to see a stranger sleeping next to her when she was completely nude in bed. With his back to her, he was facing away.Flashbacks from the previous night came racing back to Emma, turning her cheeks pale. In the end, it wasn't a dream!How was she able to get here?Is it possible that someone spiked her drink?With a gnashing of teeth, Emma got out of bed. She attempted to stay as cool as possible, using all the poise she had. She dressed quickly in her clothing from the previous evening, got ready, and ran away. She had to get home right now to speak with Olivia and find out what had transpired!*****Upon arriving home, Emma noticed her father was waiting for her, seated on the sofa. Clark asked, his face composed, "Where were you the night before?"After pondering over what had happened the previous evening, Emma pursed her lips and eventually said, "I fell asleep in a friend's house.""Wham!"He said angrily, slamming a picture onto the table, "I know you spent the night in a hotel room with another man! You lie to me, how dare you?Emma's face was devoid of blood when she saw the picture. It was an image of an unfamiliar man escorting her inside a hotel room.After you've been engaged and getting prepared for your wedding, you have the guts to go in with another man! Do you really know the consequences of your actions Emma? He thundered.Olivia sprinted in her high heels down the stairs. "Calm down, dad." She moved over to Emma and pretended to niggle at her while she talked. How could you humiliate the family in such a way, Emma? Before getting married, you should know not to cross the line, even if you are in love with the man.Emma was stunned beyond belief. By that, what did she mean?It was obvious she had been unconscious at the time!Olivia would never be so sweet as to celebrate her birthday on her behalf, just as she had suspected. Everything had been staged! "Dad, listen, I was out celebrating my birthday with Olivia," Emma attempted to clarify. Something was in the beverage Olivia offered me."Enough already!" "Olivia is your big sister," snarled Clark as he stood up and jabbed a finger at her. You dare not hold her accountable for your own deeds!"Sister?"As Emma heard her father's accusations, she balled both of her fists until they began to shake. Her father was an adulterous guy, and her mother ought to have realized this. From the beginning, he had been seeing a woman on the side.Who would have thought that he would remarry Camila Adams soon, only a year after her mother passed away? Emma was more shocked to learn that they had given birth to a girl of their own some time ago!For years now, Emma had known that Olivia was attempting to win their father over. When their father was there, she would act one way, then behind him, she would change. Emma never imagined that Olivia would attempt to undermine her on her own birthday!"Y-you, I was going to give you Everly Jewelry when you eventually reached adulthood but y-you.It's unbelievable that you would pull off such a prank to damage the family name! I would rather never see your face again! Without a blatant scumbag like you as a daughter, Roberts could do better!".Emma became furious, "Are you kicking me out, Dad?"Just at her feet, Clark broke the cup he was holding. "Leave this place like the hell!""How dare you do this! have you forgotten who founded this jewelry company? It was my mother, and without my mother this company wouldn't exist. And how dare you want to give it out to the daughter of a bitch who destroyed the family and made my mother miserable? How could she possibly design an excellent jewelry with such bad taste of hers....Emma's questioning went unanswered and was replaced by a slap on the face. She inclined her head for a long time, she immediately turned and looked at his father, unbelievable that her father would hit her. She seemed to see a flash of guilt in her father's eyes, but maybe she was wrong after all, at this time, her eyes had long been full of tears that she cannot really see.Suddenly she felt so tired like a deflated ball, and did not want to argue anymore, her lips opened and finally said nothing, just a bitter smile, looked up at Olivia and her father,and said: "I'll leave as you wish"While trembling violently, Emma then looked up to see Olivia sneering back at her, her father's frown untrusting. She was overcome with a cold feeling in her heart.Olivia approached Emma as she was hauling her bags through the front yard. She held out her arm, seeming to be kind, offering to assist with the luggage. But Emma smacked her hand instead of reaching out. "Go away."When Olivia finally saw Emma's animosity for her, she revealed her true nature. "I'll tell you the truth. Yes, last night I did put a little bit to that drink. It must be awful to be tarnished by a man, I suppose.Emma chewed on her lips in dismay. "By worming your way into our house, you and Camila achieved your goals. What more are you looking for?"I want your status," I said. Olivia approached her directly and gave her a furious look. "Why do I get to be the illegitimate child while you get to be the Roberts family's jewel? Did you not have a noble and proud birth? You are now nothing more than a corrupted lady, then. You ought to be aware of your situation by now. Why don't you just go on then?With great pleasure, Olivia waved her phone in front of Emma's face."Go now and don't return if you don't want this video to be released to the public and you run the risk of having your life destroyed forever."Emma returned a blank stare. She released her tightly balled hands. With a hard expression on her face, she picked up her bags off the ground and entered her car without taking another look.Olivia observed the vehicle as it drew further and further away. A proud smile appeared on her face. She not only had ownership of the Everly Jewelry now, but she also had free reign to take anything under the Vanderbilt!Just then a Rolls-Royce pulled up directly in front of their house just as she was going to turn around. Four black-clad bodyguards exited the vehicle and formed a line beside it. A man emerged, putting his lengthy leg out. His frame was athletic and he was tall. His black suit was basic and stylish, yet it also exuded a certain something.Olivia said, motionless, "Isn't that...? Daniel Godman who's the heir apparent to the Godman dynasty from Bassburgh, the capital city of royalty?The CEO of Horizon Group, referred to as Emerald Springs's patriarch's youngest monarch of business and commerce. He was handsome, tall and has a pointed nose with a well built body shape, he has a hundred million dollar net worth, Daniel Godman was wealthy. In addition, he held a great deal of influence in the royal capital!Why was he at the Roberts manor doing this?The emotionless eyes of Damion skimmed across her. "Are you," he said icily, "Olivia Vanderbilt?"A beat skipped in her heart. He knew who she was!"Yes, that's me," she added, nodding merrily."Were you the woman who stayed in Room 6228 of the Grand View Hotel with me that night?"Olivia's face took a turn.Grand View Hotel: 6228, Room!The room that she'd specifically set aside for that blatant b*tch? Is it possible that Emma's partner from the previous night was not the aging guy she had thought him to be? It was indeed Daniel Goldmann!That b*tch, damn it! It's unbelievable how fortunate she was!Even if Emma were to have unending luck, would it really matter? She was only going to be a stepping stone in the end. I see, Daniel. Who in their right mind would ever turn down the opportunity to be your partner?Olivia grinned as she nodded. Why, in fact. The woman you were with is me.

He has all the traits that you wished for your dream man to have. Power, money, perfection, handsomeness and a body like a Greek God. But he's inlove. He's inlove with her. For him, she was the completion of his dream, a perfect wife and a mother to be with his children. He would give her everything including his own life. He would sacrifice his world for her. But she left him. She betrayed him. She broke his heart into pieces. And he turned into a cold, heartless, rude and an arrogant billionaire, who would do everything to show her that she's no longer important into his life. Even though the truth is the opposite of what he is doing. His heart still aching for her. And that's when he met me. I applied as his Personal Assistant to fulfill my bucket list of dreams. To explore my life and experience everything. He offered me a deal. He asked me to marry him just to show his ex that he already moved on. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * "She's pregnant." He blurted out and i almost stumbled on where i am standing. I just gripped the backrest of the couch to support my weight. The pain creeping in my heart is unbearable but i managed to stay calm. "Wow! Congratulations!" I said faking my excitement as i remembered him saying... -cheating would not be the reason to break our marriage- of course i couldn't accuse him of this as 'cheating' because she was the real reason why we are pretending as a couple. He still love her. He's still inlove with her. And that's when i made the biggest decision in my life. Taking all my strength and a piece of my heart that still hanging on a thin rope... I left him. Taking also my biggest secret in me... that i've already fallen inlove with him. And somehow i learned a lesson; 'Loving someone who doesn't love you back isn't as hard as loving someone who still inlove with his ex and who only uses you to get her back again into his life..'

"I will work for you till I pay back the amount in full.. I want to be a maid.. Please… I don't want to be a breeder" I started to plead once everyone left the ward.. He saw her begging but his stone cold heart didn't melt. "I never tasted a weak duckling Alpha.." He smirked and walked toward me.. I walked back with fear till I hit the wall. "I am not weak." I said in a low tone and tried to push him away.. But his solid body didn't move an inch.. I could not breathe properly because of his aura.. "I will make you beg me for pleasure…" His words disgusted me. I didn't talk back as his Alpha tone was overbearing.. I felt weak wherever he was touching me.. "You will be my toy till you get pregnant.." I turned my head away with disgust but he touched my cheek roughly and caught my chin. He made me look into his eyes.. His hand covered my neck and gripped it hard.. "I will come to you every night to f**k you.." His eyes became devilish as if he was looking at his prey.. Suddenly I felt scared of him more.. and my breathing became suffocating.. He is pressing my windpipe to make me suffer… My eyes become red while I shake my head slowly... "No… no.." I murmured and I forgot to breathe in his presence.. He was scaring hell out of me.. "Girl.. You will be lucky if you get pregnancy soon otherwise I will have my ways to f**k you.." I dropped my eyes not able to hear such f***y words.. Tears rolled down my cheeks when he loosened his grip.. I don't want to believe that my father sold me as a breeder.. I can't accept it.. "If you agree or not.. it doesn't matter.. spread your legs when I come to you.." He pushed me back again and the tip of his nose touched my cheek while I looked at him scarily.. He nibbled on the crook of my neck and kissed my sensitive places… "Remember I am your Alpha from now on and don't you dare to say no…" he said huskily and pushed me back fiercely.. His cruel and harsh words made me fall back on the ground..

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
