All works

1 Ever since my long-lost sister, Summer, was found and brought home, I became the black sheep of the family. It all started when she claimed the diet plan I gave her made her gain a pound, costing her the chance to be the lead dancer. Mom and Dad tore up my invitation to the Black Swan Dance Company, just like that. My brother, Jake, started putting hormones in my milk every day. After ballooning up, like, a hundred pounds, a video of me struggling to even use the bathroom went viral. Mort

I had a movie date with my girlfriend. When I got to the theater, I saw her giggling and flirting with two foreign guys. “Hey, beautiful. We’re street photographers. Would you like to participate in our kiss challenge?” one of them asked. Hearing those words made my blood boil. I was about to rush over and stop this ridiculous game. But then I saw my girlfriend blush and nod. She actually leaned in, her lips reaching for theirs. “I’d love to!” she whispered. 1. “Get your filthy hands off h

In my past life, my sister-in-law gave birth to twins. She kept the boy but wanted to throw the girl away. My heart broke for the child, so I stepped in to help raise my niece. I gave her everything. But when she grew up, she became greedy for my wealth. She staged a car accident and murdered me. Now that I've been reborn, I'm only living for myself. Those kids belong to them, and they can raise them themselves. 1 I opened my eyes and realized I was back on the day my sister-in-law was in l

Chapter 1 My mother died in a sudden accident. The day before her funeral, my husband was busy rushing back to a small town to marry his young assistant. When I confronted him, his face was full of nothing but impatience. "Her mother is dying, and her only wish is to see her daughter settled with a good man. I'm just doing her a favor. It's not like I'm actually sleeping with her. Why are you getting so worked up?" But that night, when I called him, it was his assistant who answered. "Mr.

My ex-boyfriend turned my voice into an AI persona and used it to bag a ten-million-dollar investment. When I confronted him, he just smirked and told me that AI-generated voices aren't protected by copyright. He even dared me to produce evidence. I didn't have any. At least, not until an anonymous listener known as “Mr. Coordinate” tracked me down. He managed to recover every single server log that my ex, Vance, had used to steal my voice. Forty-seven raw audio files, each with a timestamp a

1 My wife, Sarah, was eight months pregnant and walking our dog when some idiot ran a red light and totaled her. Her water broke right there on the sidewalk. First thing I did was call an ambulance. The paramedics showed up, ready to load Sarah onto a stretcher, and I stopped them cold. "Whoa, hold up. You guys got the wrong idea. I called for the dog. Gotta get him to the vet, like, now. Every second counts." The paramedics just stood there, mouths open. So did everyone else gawking at the

Ever since I got pregnant, Caleb St. Claire worked from dawn until dusk, claiming he was doing it for me and our unborn child. I felt so bad for his exhaustion that I started a secret side hustle as a psychic in the underground back-alley markets. I never expected to see Caleb standing right in front of my stall. He wrote down my exact birth details and asked me to calculate the destiny of the baby I was carrying. Thinking he was just a worried father, I told him the child was destined for a

After the divorce, the company I built with my own two hands was snatched away by my ex-husband. Everyone in our circle whispered that I got exactly what I deserved. After all, I was the one who cuckolded him with his biggest rival. The world waited with bated breath, eager to see how Gage Sterling would exact his revenge on me. But on the day of my funeral, a series of vlogs I recorded while I was alive was leaked. Gage completely lost his mind. In front of the camera, he sobbed until he co

It was Celine's birthday gala. Just because she frowned slightly while stepping down from the carriage, Alaric forced me to kneel. He wanted me to be her human footstool. He didn't care that I was six months pregnant with his child. As the blood began to pool beneath me, Alaric didn't even look back. He simply sneered, "She is just a plaything I kept on a whim. Don't be so dramatic. You're getting Celine's shoes dirty." While they celebrated all night, I was left to find my own way back to t

Just because I posted a wedding photo on social media without blocking Gideon Sterling's obsession, Misty Price, he decided to auction off our wedding night the very next day. The wedding ceremony had just ended, and I found Gideon in a private hotel suite, clutching my phone. He was busy haggling with his group of lowlife friends. "One million dollars for the night," he announced. "Not a penny less." "Come on, Gideon," one of his buddies teased. "Even if Elara is still a virgin, that price

1 Everyone in the pack knew Andrew, the alpha, and I were destined mates. Hell, I thought so too. Then, the night before the ceremony, rogues attacked. Andrew shoved me aside to protect Elsa. My heart shattered. I chose Gabriel, who'd been quietly by my side for years. But after I let Andrew go, he suddenly had regrets. He begged me to even look at him. I leaned against Gabriel, gave Andrew a blank stare, and said, "Sorry, do I know you?" ... “Andrew, I don’t want to be your mate anymore.” I

I found Evangeline York when she was a nameless girl wandering the streets with no memory. I worked day and night, sacrificing everything to give her a life of luxury. When she finally regained her memory and returned to the wealthy York family, she forbade anyone from mentioning her past. Her mother, Mrs. York, looked down at me from her high horse and offered to grant me one wish. I spoke from my heart. "I want to marry Evangeline." Mrs. York let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "Stop drea

I spent five years in a long-distance relationship with my boyfriend. I stayed by his side through his darkest times and helped him beat his depression. He always told me he loved me more than anything. He said I was his entire world. But he was also the one who kicked a tooth out of my mouth. He was the one who led the gang that bullied me. Later, I turned that broken tooth into a necklace. I gave it to him as a gift for our first face-to-face meeting. His face went pale, and his whole body

My daughter's new homeroom teacher is a beautiful Gen Z girl. With her trendy looks and unique teaching style, she quickly became a viral influencer by filming her interactions with students. In her videos, she plays around with the boys like they are best friends. But in the next frame, she posts videos of the girls in the dorms, looking messy and wearing nothing but their pajamas.

In my past life, I treated my stepsister, Vanessa, like my own blood. I worked to pay for her tuition, covered her debts, and shielded her from every storm. What did I get in return? My inheritance stolen, the love of my life snatched away, and a lonely death in a damp, rented room. With my final breath, I heard her on the phone outside my door, ‘She’s dead? Good. At least I don’t have to deal with her anymore.’ When I opened my eyes again, I was eighteen. Vanessa was there, putting on her ‘poor

I had just arrived at the office when the security guard blocked my path. He tossed my personal belongings onto the pavement at my feet. I looked at my CEO boyfriend, Harry Pierce, who was standing right behind the guard. I frowned, staying silent as I processed the scene. The next second, his sister, Sadie, rushed up to me and gave me a violent shove. "Get lost already! My brother is done with you!" "You're just a pathetic office rat. Did you really think you could compete with the daughter

On my girlfriend Claire's birthday, I proposed to her in front of all our friends and family. But just as I was down on one knee, holding out the diamond ring, Claire's phone rang. It was her neighbor and childhood friend, Liam. "Claire, I baked a cake for you myself. Do you want to come over and try some?" After Claire hung up the phone, she didn't hesitate to leave me there to go eat cake. This was the thousandth time Claire had chosen Liam over me. By the time I finished cleaning up the

On Valentine’s Day, famous magician Damian performed an intimate, private trick for his cute assistant. He snapped his fingers, and a sparkling diamond ring appeared right in the palm of his hand. He looked at her and asked, “Will you marry me?” When I saw the video on the assistant’s TikTok, I let out a dry laugh that quickly turned into uncontrollable tears. Because Damian was my boyfriend. We had been together for seven long years. Suddenly, a bone-deep exhaustion washed over me, so at

1 This was the nineteenth time Caleb Harrison had walked out on me for his childhood friend. I found two movie tickets tucked away in his dresser drawer. He gave me a cold, dismissive look as he explained. "It was supposed to be a surprise, but since you found them, meet me at the theater tonight." That night, I sat through the entire movie alone, from the opening credits until the lights came up. Caleb never showed. On my way home, I happened to scroll past Melody Banks's latest post on s

My wife, Tatiana Shaw, claimed to suffer from severe trauma-induced male avoidance. For five years of marriage, we slept in separate rooms. But at the Golden Palette Awards, she unveiled five hundred and twenty paintings of her and her first love in intimate poses. In the paintings, they were nearly naked, their hands the only things covering their most private parts. The first painting was dated three years ago, on Valentine's Day. Watching them stand before the press with their fingers int
