In the evening, I went to the bar once again to pick up a drunken Archie. A row of attractive women sat beside him, each vying for his attention. Archie owned a chain of bars in Calchester. His father was a prominent figure in the city, and Archie, being the only son, was spoiled from a young age, which shaped his carefree and indulgent nature.

When Archie saw me, he wrapped his arm around my waist and blew a puff of smoke in my face. "I thought you weren't coming after making me wait so long. Come on, take me home!"

Feeling a bit embarrassed, I had a hard time hauling the drunken Archie. An attractive woman beside him, clearly jealous, reluctantly shifted him onto me. "Stop acting all high and mighty. Weren't you also working here before?" she sneered behind me.

I ignored her, but she wasn't wrong. I first crossed paths with Archie in this very bar. Back then, I was a top student at Horizon University, working part-time to pay off my family's debts. Because of my looks, I was harassed by some troublemakers at the bar, and it was Archie who saved me.

After that, Archie chased after me relentlessly. He had many women around him, but I was the only one he publicly acknowledged as his girlfriend. Despite his frequent cheating, he never mistreated me in other ways. Archie wasn't well-educated, but he had a knack for business and connections in both legal and illegal circles. Handsome, tall, and generous, he had no shortage of admirers.

As we left the bar, Archie whispered in my ear, "Your best trait is how tolerant you are." It wasn't that I didn't care; it was just that if I truly cared about Archie's philandering ways, I would have lost my mind long ago.

It was already late at night when I brought Archie to my place. My ten-year-old Tricia, upon seeing me, immediately came to greet me. Tricia was incredibly intuitive, with large, blinking eyes. She rubbed against me and gave me a kiss, a daily ritual for us.

I had a special bond with Tricia. I found her in an exotic pet shop in Azliwood during a trip. The shop owner claimed she was a magical cat from Rimgue Mountain, said to bring longevity if eaten. Some big guys had specifically ordered her, and the owner was about to kill her when she looked at me with her big, blinking eyes. My heart softened, and I spent a hefty sum to buy her, even getting into a big argument with the men, nearly resulting in a fight.

Since then, Tricia became my beloved pet. I pampered her with the best food, drinks, and health supplements. I even remodeled my home to create a cat-friendly environment. Friends who visited often joked that they couldn't tell if the house was for me or the cat. Tricia's only flaw was her dislike for baths, but I indulged her in this too, often sending her to luxury pet spas for pampering.

In short, apart from paying off family debts, most of my money was spent on Tricia. I found joy in it because she provided me with emotional comfort that no one else could. However, Archie didn't like her. He always felt that Tricia had an intimidating and sinister look. He often tried to persuade me to get rid of her, but I always refused, leading to frequent arguments.

Back in the bedroom, Archie tossed me onto the bed, ready to undress and kiss me. Suddenly, we heard the familiar "thump, thump, thump" of Tricia entering the room. Every time Archie tried to be intimate with me, Tricia would run over, squeeze between us, and scratch his face.

"Such a buzzkill. Every time we try to be intimate, she has to come over," Archie grumbled, lighting a cigarette and sitting up. Just then, his phone rang. It was one of the attractive women calling, her voice flirtatious on the other end. "Alright, I'll be right over, you little minx," he said, hanging up without offering me any explanation and hurriedly leaving.

I knew he had grown tired of our relationship. To him, I had become a dull and uninteresting person. As he slammed the door, I had a feeling that our relationship was nearing its end. Sure enough, while I was out, Archie took all his stuff from my place. Along with him, Tricia also disappeared.

I went to the bar to find Archie and ask about Tricia's whereabouts, but he wasn't there. The attractive women took the opportunity to taunt me. Angered, I grabbed a bottle and swung it in their direction, but in the chaos, I ended up hitting my own head and passed out.

When I woke up, I found myself lying on a luxurious hotel suite's sofa. A stranger with a sculpted body and strikingly handsome face, wearing pajamas, was walking towards me. I felt a jolt of fear, touching the wound on my head to confirm I wasn't dreaming.

To the Dark Moon Pack, I wasn't just invisible; I was a stain. Dean Lee, the Alpha designed for my soul, treated me like a shameful secret while he paraded his mistress, Karina, in red silk. The night of the Charity Auction, Dean bought my late mother's moonstone pendant—the only thing I had left of her—for a hundred thousand dollars. I begged him for it. Instead, he clasped it around Karina's ankle. With a cruel laugh, Karina stomped her stiletto heel, crushing the moonstone into dust. Dean just watched, his eyes cold and unfeeling. "It was just a cheap rock," he said. "I'll buy you diamonds." But the cruelty didn't stop at emotional torture. When rogues attacked, Dean used me as live bait to distract them from Karina. He threw me into the Blood Pit, a gladiator arena, to fight a massive Feral wolf while he sat in the VIP box with Karina on his lap. "She won't last three minutes," I heard him say through our dying bond. He watched with bored detachment as I was ripped apart, refusing to save me even as I screamed his name. He saved the mistress and drowned the mate. I died on that arena floor. Or so he thought. Years later, the mysterious and world-renowned artist "H.Y." returned to New York for a gallery opening. When Dean saw me on stage, he rushed forward, tears streaming down his face, trying to claim the wife he had mourned. "Hayley," he choked out, reaching for me. "You're alive. You're mine." I didn't cry. I didn't run. I unleashed a shockwave of ancient White Wolf energy that blasted him across the room, shattering the glass displays. "I don't take orders from dogs anymore," I said, looking down at him. "I, Hayley York, hereby reject you."

I stood in the darkest corner of the Pierre Hotel’s ballroom, my cheap polyester dress itching against my skin while my wristband buzzed with a DARPA Priority Red alert. In front of the city’s elite, my fiancé Bryce Calloway took the stage, not to toast our future, but to publicly end our engagement and announce he was with my sister, Chloe. The room turned on me instantly, a hundred pairs of eyes pinning me down with pity and disgust as they physically backed away like I was contagious. When I returned home, my mother shattered a crystal vase at my feet, screaming that I was a humiliation and a "dropout" who didn't deserve a cent of the family fortune. Chloe and Bryce mocked me, laughing when I told them I had a mission with the National Security Agency, convinced I was either a pathological liar or a low-level criminal. They watched in horror as a black, unmarked military helicopter descended on our backyard to extract me, yet they still chose to believe I was being arrested for drug trafficking. They saw a pathetic girl who couldn't even parallel park, never realizing I was Dr. Nova Vance, the lead physicist behind the world's first successful fusion reactor. To secure funding for my research and gain a "fortress" of a name, I signed a thirty-day marriage contract with the arrogant billionaire Roman Knight. He treats me like a fraud, convinced I’m a gold-digger who failed out of college, while I quietly run global energy simulations from his guest bedroom. He has no idea that the "loser" he’s forced to live with is the same anonymous grandmaster who has been ruthlessly crushing him in online strategy games for months. "The contract is active," I told him, looking past his expensive suit. "But don't expect me to be your maid."

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.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
