Evelyn Napier

When Evelyn’s loser fiance steals her company's secrets and elopes with her prostitute mother, she finds herself facing impending bankruptcy. But unexpected help comes in the form of an unusual offer from her business rival and ex-boyfriend, Alexander Langford. “Bear my children, Eve, and I’ll save this precious company of yours.” To everyone else, Alexander is the heir to a billion dollar fortune, and the acting industry’s handsome darling.

How could Alexander miss the golden chance to hit two birds with one stone? He gets his inheritance, and a family with the love of his life. Now, if only dear Evelyn would stop thinking the worst of him… [Strong female lead x doting male lead.] [EXCERPT] “You’re out of your mind,” Eve snaps. “You could have any woman in this world, and you want ME to be the mother of your children?!” “Why not? You’re smart, savvy, and fucking hot,” Alex says as he takes a step forward, trapping her body between his muscular arms. His dark blue eyes gaze deep into hers with unbridled lust. “I want our children to have the best from both of us. Our children could take over the world.” “There is no ‘our’,” Eve says coldly, pushing him away. “I will be the surrogate for your children. This is nothing but a business deal. There is NO love in this contract. But in exchange, you need to do something else.” “And what is it?” “Help me take down my ex-fiance. That bastard deserves to die after fucking my mom and ruining my life.” Alex chuckles. “It’s a deal then, sweetheart.” * It was nothing but a business deal at first. But what if the line between business, love, and hatred were getting blurry as they got entangled too far and too long? * [Power couple, slow burn, getting back together.]

“I don't like judging people, but sometimes I can't help it. I don't like talking behind people's backs, but sometimes I do.

"D" for dark, "D" for depth, "D"... for death. It demanded no attachment, and Daemon sacrificed love for it. Years later, the death of his teammates made him feel that he had done enough for the country, so he came back to the city he grew in. But can what has been forsaken be gained back? Because now Evelyn, the one to have breathed vitality in his numb, orphaned heart, had her own life, and a little boy calling her mother. And while he left his life full of dead bodies behind, did that life really let him go? From the ashes, will it love or... ? _ _ _ First draft of characters image on my discord, a channel for fans to get together: https://discord.com/invite/C86EJvCJdd Comment and review, don't forget.

Evelyn was certain she had met her end. The last thing she saw was a towering mutant lunging at her, its grotesque form a result of the very catastrophe that had wiped out most of humanity. But instead of death, she opened her eyes to a time when Earth was still livable—three months before the NASA satellite crash that had killed half the population and the nuclear plant collapse that had turned those who live near them into mindless mutants. This time, she refuses to be a helpless survivor. She will fight, prepare, and save those she lost in her past life. But unlike the reborn protagonists of novels, she has no hidden wealth, no space filled with supplies—just her knowledge of the future and a determination to survive. As she scavenges for essentials, she stumbles upon an unexpected burden—a small child who clings to her, calling her Mommy. Alone and vulnerable, the little girl would never survive the horrors to come. Against her better judgment, Evelyn takes her in. But protecting herself was hard enough. Can she shield an innocent child from the apocalypse while rewriting the fate of the world?

When monsters sprouted from suddenly appearing towers all over the world, the world leaders created an organization of skilled warriors to tackle this problem. The warriors compromised of awakened humans; people who had gotten skills similar to those in a video game. Unfortunately, not everyone was willing to join this attack force, so the world leaders implemented a lottery-system to fill out the ranks. A few years later, Evelyn’s twin sister was chosen via lottery to become a discoverer, but their biased parents forced Evelyn to go in her sister's stead, putting her in the line of danger. The only salvation was that her finance was also sent on the same mission. The mission was to conquer a new Boss floor, and they were to fight against a monster of unpresented might. What she hadn’t expected was that her fiancé would betray her, because of a plot he concocted together with her sister. The monster annihilated their whole team before they were finally able to defeat it, but her fiancé had no thoughts of letting her leave the tower. Stabbing her in the back, he leered over her as he explained their plan while she slowly bled to death. With the last of her life force, dead set on getting her revenge on the man she had promised her life with, she heals the boss monster in hopes that it will kill him. As she slowly closes her eyes, the world going dark around her, a notification from the system pops up. “ New class: Black healer Congratulations! You have completed the hidden legendary quest, healing an S-ranked monster on its last breath by sacrificing yourself. Your immensely caring heart should be an inspiration to all healers, both human and monsters! Not caring for the wounded’s different race and even sacrificing the last of your own life, you have been given a new chance at life. ” Waking up, she is now back three years before the battle took place. Her new life starts now!

Con el rostro de Annabelle enrojecido de desdén, Evelyn le dio palmaditas en la espalda y se inclinó para darle otra bofetada. —Así que, buena suerte lamiendo mis sobras, querida hermanastra. Él es un partido perfecto para ti."

"Ich lasse dich von heute Abend an oben sein, bitte lass dich nicht scheiden, Liebling!" ----- Evelyns märchenhaftes Leben gerät ins Wanken, als ein Fremder hereinkommt und behauptet, die echte Tochter der Familie Wright zu sein. Ihre beneidenswerten Privilegien? Weggefegt. Ihr makelloser Ruf? Beschmutzt. Ihre vierjährige Verlobung? Abrupt annulliert. Aber der schlimmste Verrat kam von ihrem einst so geliebten Vater, der sie verheiraten wollte, um eine geschäftliche Rechnung zu begleichen - mit einem Mann, der doppelt so alt war wie sie! Alle im Kreis waren bei dieser skandalösen Hochzeit dabei und wollten den Untergang der vermeintlichen Scheinerbin miterleben. Doch der Höhepunkt war nicht das, was selbst Evelyn erwartet hatte! Zevian Reign, der reichste Tycoon der Nation, bekannt dafür, der Traum jeder Frau und der Albtraum aller seiner Rivalen zu sein, hatte einen dramatischen Auftritt. Seine Ankunft verblüffte die Gäste, aber sein unverschämter Wunsch war noch verblüffender! Er forderte lässig, den Bräutigam zu ersetzen und die schöne Braut zu heiraten. Niemand wagte es, ihn herauszufordern, und niemand hatte den Mut, ihm nicht zu gehorchen. Es blieb ihnen nichts anderes übrig, als die Hochzeit zu beobachten. Und es war Evelyns Zeit, zu lächeln, denn sie war jetzt die Frau des Teufels. Und alle, die sie ruiniert hatten, würden es ihr zehnfach heimzahlen! ++++ [Auszug] "Warum sollte ich meinen Mann für einen Versager sitzen lassen?" Evelyn gluckste und verschränkte trotzig die Arme. "Er ist in allen Belangen besser als er." Ihr Blick wanderte zu ihrem Ex-Verlobten in der Nähe, und sie fuhr schmunzelnd fort: "Im Bett sogar viel besser." Als Annabelles Gesicht vor Verachtung errötete, klopfte Evelyn ihr auf den Rücken und beugte sich vor, um ihr eine weitere Ohrfeige zu geben. "Also, viel Glück beim Lecken meiner Reste, liebe Stiefschwester. Er ist eine perfekte Partie für dich."

“I will let you be on top from tonight, please don’t divorce me, darling!” ----- Evelyn’s fairytale life shattered when a stranger stormed in, claiming to be the real daughter of the Wright family with proof. Her enviable privileges? Stripped away. Her spotless reputation? Tarnished. Her four-year engagement? Abruptly annulled. But the worst betrayal came from her once-loving father, all set to marry her off to settle a business score—with a man twice her age! Everyone in the circle attended this scandalous wedding, eager to witness the downfall of the supposed fake heiress. Yet, the climax was not what even Evelyn had anticipated! Zevian Reign, the nation’s richest tycoon, known for being every woman’s fantasy and the nightmare of all his rivals, made a dramatic entrance. His arrival stunned the guests, but his brazen wish was even more startling! He casually demanded to replace the groom and marry the beautiful bride. No one dared to challenge, nor did anyone have the guts to disobey him. They were left with no choice but to watch the wedding unfold. And it was Evelyn’s time to smirk, for she was now the devil’s wife. And all those who had ruined her, they would pay back in tenfold! ++++ [Excerpt] "Why would I ditch my husband for a loser?" Evelyn chuckled, crossing her arms defiantly. "He is better than him in all the aspects." Her gaze drifted to her ex-fiancé nearby, and she continued with a smirk, "Actually, a lot better in bed." As Annabelle’s face flushed with disdain, Evelyn patted her back and leaned in to deliver another slap. "So, good luck with licking my leftovers, dear step-sister. He's a perfect match for you."
