IMPORTANT NOTE: Please be known that this book wouldn't have made it this far without the support my dear writing buddy Rachel E. Canton who is a great writer of SINS OF THE SERAPHIM - https://www.webnovel.com/book/sins-of-the-seraphim_26438336605116805 and Derek J. Perna To Rachel & Derek, Thank you for everything! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When the last heir of Ardel lost everything, fate would bring her to her rightful protector. Anna Adhemar, the forgotten princess, found herself betrayed by the Regent. Hunted by the Bargesians and the ruthless slave traders, she desperately fled for her life. Rescued by a mysterious man, her newfound safety was short-lived as she succumbed to a potent aphrodisiac. Then, she awoke in the arms of the fearsome Knight Commander of Gerhard, stripped bare, in a foreign kingdom. Fear, confusion, and a sense of profound devastation enveloped her. But the man before her declared, "I am your husband. I married you last night." Then, with unwavering determination, he vowed, " You're my woman now. No one can hurt my woman." --- Kyren Raychard, the Crown Prince who had chosen to forsake the throne and became celibate, led the Knights of Gerhard to safeguard his kingdom’s border from slave trading activities. Outside his camp, he found Anna poisoned and delirious. The healer informed him of the only cure, of which he must race against time to give and honour her. For the first time, he felt an overwhelming instinct to protect and claim her as his own. Unaware of his deepening affection, he belatedly realised his feelings as he stood on the brink of losing her. Bound by a soul-binding spell, their fates intertwined…

Simione needed to become a mistress. Not just another rich man's mistress, but M Conglomerate's President, Hawk Monsanto's. Truth was, the young billionaire does not interest Simione of any sort nor was his very attractive gorgeous looks concerned her. She just needed him for one thing, his fiancée Feather Han, owed her big time and that ballerina bitch had to pay with the most precious thing Simione desired, her broken heart. Hawk Monsanto rose to the top for one reason; he wanted to be the perfect match for the Han Scintillait's heiress. When he thought it was the right time to get what his heart desired, he willingly bleeds millions just to arrange a wedding engagement. However, whether it was work of fate or work of an evil seductress, he stumbled upon a rare beauty that he cannot set his eyes off. And before his money and rationality could ever warn him, Hawk had fallen into something his billions cannot buy. *** "Who are you?" Hawk managed to ask between his ragged breath. "That depends on who you want me to be," The girl uttered and for the first time, Hawk saw her upturned honey-colored eyes. Looking into it was like drowning yourself into something magical, something hypnotizing and very much irresistible that when the girl tiptoed to meet his lips, he willingly lowered his head to welcome her. And he was right there, opening his mouth for her—warm and wet—giving everything he must give and was kissing her back with equal ardor. The girl wrapped her arms around his neck, and he responded by pressing the girl's body closer, the fiancee forgotten. However, when Hawk was at the point of wanting more, the girl pulled away and Hawk opened his eyes bewildered onto her sudden retreat. He was gasping for air and would very much like to pull her back to finish the bliss she had started. But she only smiled at him, feeling very empowered by the fact that the M Conglomerate's President had already fallen into her trap. "What's the matter?" He asked, confused as to what made her stop. "Nothing," Her smile widened a little more, making her face bright and goddess-like and Hawk became more defenseless with that. "It's just that I only want you to have a free taste. The next of course comes with a big price"

In this dark revenge thriller, 19‐year-old Hallelujah Hamilton appears as a naive, beautiful high school senior but hides a dangerous, manipulative nature. Traumatized by witnessing her real parents’ murder at a young age by a trusted family friend, she faked memory loss and assumed a new identity, biding her time to exact revenge on her parents’ killer’s son. Milo Cooper, a 27‐year-old disciplined soldier towering at 6’6”, returns after nine years to marry the girl his late father had betrothed to him. Unbeknownst to most, Milo is aware of Hallelujah’s vengeful plans yet pretends ignorance because of his genuine, growing love for her. Their union becomes the stage for a perilous power struggle as Hallelujah carefully balances her secret agenda with the need to win Milo’s trust. Complicating matters further is Chloe Morgan, a 25‐year-old striking military partner to Milo. Infatuated with him and determined to have him for herself, Chloe becomes increasingly jealous of Hallelujah. In a bid to sabotage Hallelujah’s plans, Chloe spikes her drink. However, Hallelujah turns the tables, causing Chloe to unwittingly ingest the spiked beverage and engage in a scandalous encounter with Rhett Salvatore—a classmate who, after a reckless night with Chloe, becomes dangerously obsessed with her and is manipulated into performing harmful acts. As the tension escalates, Chloe’s jealousy drives her to plot more sinister schemes, including kidnapping and framing Hallelujah for stealing exam papers. In one dramatic turn, after being tied up and thrown into the water by her kidnappers, Hallelujah is rescued by an old man. Seizing the opportunity, she pretends to have lost her memory once more, masking her true identity while Chloe’s plots continue to unravel. The climax erupts in a bloody confrontation between Hallelujah and Chloe. During the fight, Hallelujah is shot, and when Milo arrives, he mistakenly believes her to be dead. Overcome with rage, he shoots Chloe. In a shocking reversal, as Milo rushes to her side, Hallelujah reveals her lethal resolve by shooting him. Rushed to the hospital, Milo survives long enough to confess his love for her, a revelation that forces Hallelujah to confront the tragic truth: her long-held vendetta was built on a lie. Her real father was, in fact, a criminal psychopath whom Milo’s father had killed to protect his family—a truth that shatters everything she believed. In the aftermath, Milo is sent abroad for further treatment while Hallelujah is committed to rehabilitation, grappling with overwhelming guilt and remorse for having killed a man who loved her. Years later, at her best friend’s wedding, Milo reappears and asks her to be his wife once again, hinting at a possible redemption and a second chance at love despite the irreversible tragedies of their past.

Marcella Valemont is the alluring but resentful, selfish and ambitious daughter of The Head Priest. Forced into a cold marriage with the blackbellied Duke Berith, she longed for power and would stop at nothing to claim the crown—even if it meant seducing the incorruptible Crown Prince Lucian and tearing down the empire’s most virtuous house. She ruthlessly parleys her charm and cunning into becoming the Queen. But, power came with a price. Her ruthless schemes led to betrayal, rebellion, and ruin- an empire on its knees, a virtuous king destroyed, and a rebellion led by the man she discarded. Desperate and full of regret, she barters her life with the Duke to save Lucian. In an interesting turn of events, she gets to go back in time to fix her wrongs, save the man who was ruined because of her and hopefully stop the bloodthirsty rebel Duke Berith. She finds herself reborn as her 18-year-old self with a chance for a do-over. She vows to do better this time, to steer clear of the bastions of power and the malevolent Berith. Secrets long buried begin to surface, and Marcella discovers that her former husband is far more than he seems—a man cloaked in darkness, harboring a purpose that threatens everything she holds dear. They say second chances come with thorns and to fix the past, Marcela must trust the devil who destroyed it.
