My husband, Austin Rogers, had been missing for five years, only to return with a royal illegitimate child. The first thing he did was burst into my daughter Joanna's room, wrap her in a blanket, and throw her into the sauna. His sister, Rosita, sneered as she poured a whole box of leeches inside and locked the door. I rushed over, begging them to let my daughter out. They glared at me with malice. "How dare you plead? The little princess bruised her leg yesterday. If her mother finds out, we'll all be in deep trouble. You're just envious! You want us to stay trapped in this miserable place with you forever." At that moment, I finally understood that they intended to use my daughter's life to appease that Slaka Queen. But their plan was doomed to fail. The person being bitten by leeches inside wasn't my daughter. They were about to face the consequences of their actions.

His Daughter, His Mistake Chapter 1

My husband, Austin Rogers, had been missing for five years, only to return with a royal illegitimate child.

The first thing he did was burst into my daughter Joanna's room, wrap her in a blanket, and throw her into the sauna.

His sister, Rosita, sneered as she poured a whole box of leeches inside and locked the door.

I rushed over, begging them to let my daughter out.

They glared at me with malice. "How dare you plead? The little princess bruised her leg yesterday. If her mother finds out, we'll all be in deep trouble. You're just envious! You want us to stay trapped in this miserable place with you forever."

At that moment, I finally understood that they intended to use my daughter's life to appease that Slaka Queen.

But their plan was doomed to fail.

The person being bitten by leeches inside wasn't my daughter.

They were about to face the consequences of their actions.

"Paper and pen have been thrown in. Tell Joanna to write 'I'm sorry' ten thousand times for the little princess, Anna. Have her write "I'm sorry" and then read it out loud. If she misses it once, she will never be able to leave the sauna in her life."

These were the first words Austin spoke to me after being missing for five years.

Austin and I had been married for five years when he mysteriously disappeared on the day of our child's birth.

Everyone said he was killed by enemies, but I didn't believe it. I single-handedly took care of his family and our daughter for four years.

Four years later, he finally returned, holding the hand of a little girl.

He said he was swept away by the waves back then and rescued by the Slaka Queen, Katy Spencer.

He also said that they were both single, so it was natural for them to fall in love and give birth to Anna.

Recently, Katy lost her ability to bear children, making Anna the sole heir.

She allowed Austin to return home to fetch his family and enjoy a life of luxury in Slaka.

I have imagined many times what his reaction would be when he came home after five years and saw that I had kept the house in order.

Would he be touched, surprised, or feel sorry for me?

I never expected it to be this disgraceful.

Rosita even took out her phone to start recording, "Did you hear that, you little troublemaker? Hurry up and write. Admit your mistake. I'll play this for Her Majesty when she arrives, so she'll forgive us and only punish your wretched mother. We're finally about to go to Slaka with Austin for a good life, and you two just keep causing trouble."

But what came from inside was not Joanna's crying voice, but Anna's scream.

Joanna had already gone on a picnic with her school. If Austin hadn't been busy coaxing Anna and bragging to his friends since he came back, this blunder wouldn't have happened.

The leeches, poured into the hot, humid environment, writhed wildly, quickly covering the walls and floor, and started gathering towards Anna.

The little princess, raised in a sheltered and privileged upbringing, had never seen such a terrifying scene.

She was scared out of her wits, left only with cries and shouts.

Her voice was so hoarse from tension that even her biological father, Austin, didn't recognize it.

"Still playing tricks on us, huh?" Rosita sneered, unable and unwilling to understand, "Austin, listen! She's deliberately speaking a foreign language to provoke us! Without a sincere apology, she's still playing tricks."

Austin frowned slightly, seemingly trying to discern something.

But he didn't understand Slaka's language. During his time in Slaka, a single glance would tell the servants what he wanted, and he had a dedicated translator when going out, eliminating the need to learn the local language.

I quickly shouted, "Austin! Listen clearly. Inside is Anna. It's the little princess Anna! She can't write in our language and doesn't understand what we're saying. Let her out quickly!"

Rosita was defiant, "Gwyneth! Shut up! This is the result of your indulgence, making Joanna lawless. Thinking she can escape by pretending to be innocent after doing something wrong? No way! If we don't teach her a lesson today, she'll dare to commit crimes tomorrow."

Her words instantly made Austin's hesitation disappear, and he became even angrier.

"Unrepentant!" he barked, then ordered the servant beside him, "Raise the temperature by another 50 degrees Fahrenheit."

I couldn't believe my ears, "Austin, have you lost your mind? It's already 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Raising it more will drive the leeches insane. They'll burrow into human skin. A child's skin is so tender, how can it handle that?"

Rosita scoffed, "Well, so your daughter is precious? We country kids have all seen leeches. Who are you trying to scare? A higher temperature is better. It'll knock some sense into her, so she won't be as foolish as you, unable to distinguish between major and minor issues."

The cries from the sauna reverberated like a heavy hammer on my heart.

Even though it wasn't Joanna inside, it was a helpless child. As a mother, I felt sorry for her.

I picked up the paper and pen left on the floor, "I'll write. I'll write for her. Ten thousand times, is that enough? Just open the door, it's really Anna in there."

My plea seemed to have some effect. Austin looked at the continuously shaking door, and his expression finally softened a bit.

Seeing this, Rosita immediately grabbed his arm, "Austin, don't soften. She's just pretending to trick us. Thinking about Katy and our future. If you soften now, we'll all suffer with her. Our parents worked hard to raise us, toiled their whole lives, and finally have a chance to follow you to a good life. Are you going to let it all be ruined by this woman? We must make her remember this lesson."

This statement completely ignited Austin's fear and greed.

His remaining hesitation was burned away, and he glared at me, his face full of murderous intent.

"Yes! If it weren't for you making Anna fall, would I need to worry about Katy getting upset? Everyone knows Katy dotes on Anna! Turn up the heat! No one is allowed to open the door without my order."

My five-year-old daughter was turning blue in my arms, her body rigid with a 104-degree fever. I called my billionaire husband, Clifton, dozens of times as I rushed to the hospital, but he declined every single call. While I was screaming at doctors and fighting to save our child’s life, a news alert flashed on my phone. Clifton was at the Met Gala, looking devastatingly handsome as he intimately draped his tuxedo jacket over the shoulders of his mistress, Eleanora. The nightmare didn't end at the hospital. Clifton used a secret clause in our prenup to snatch Lily from her bed and move her to a private facility without my consent. When I finally found her, my own daughter shrank away from me in terror. "Go away, bad Mommy!" she sobbed, while the mistress fed her oatmeal and whispered that I was the one who made the doctors hurt her. Clifton stood by and watched, telling me I was too "hysterical" to be a mother. But then I discovered the real reason they were hiding her. My husband was illegally using my late mother’s rare bone marrow samples to treat Eleanora’s secret blood disorder. Now that those samples are failing, he is taking Lily to a secluded castle in Germany to harvest our daughter’s marrow for his mistress. I sat in the dark, watching them play happy family with the child they plan to sacrifice. I realized then that my marriage wasn't just a lie—it was a biological harvest. They think I’m just a broken trophy wife who doesn't understand the science they are using to destroy me. They have no idea that I am "Ghost," the anonymous medical genius behind the very research they are trying to steal. As we board the private jet to Germany, I’ve stopped crying and started calculating. If they want to play with life and death, I’ll show them exactly what happens when a mother stops being a victim and starts being a predator.

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.

Inferno Heiress: Freed From Hell To Reclaim My Empire

Clara Voss

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.
