Savvy Boutique

The Contract Bride's Dilemma

Elena Vasquez never imagined that saving her late mother’s boutique would come at the cost of her own freedom. But when Jason Sinclair—the ruthless billionaire responsible for her father’s downfall—offers her a contract marriage in exchange for financial security, she has no choice but to accept. To the world, they are the perfect power couple—graceful, untouchable, enviable. Behind closed doors, their marriage is a battlefield of icy glares, sharp words, and a tension neither of them can fully control. Jason needs her to seal a high-stakes merger, and Elena needs him to keep her mother’s legacy alive. But as much as she resents him, she can’t ignore the way his presence consumes the air around her. Jason Sinclair has always played to win. Business, power, control—he’s mastered them all. Marriage, however, was never part of the equation. Until now. Elena was supposed to be a means to an end, a pawn in his carefully orchestrated plan. But the fire in her eyes, the way she challenges him at every turn, makes him crave something far more dangerous than victory. As their worlds collide, desire turns into a slow-burning inferno neither of them saw coming. But secrets from the past threaten to shatter their fragile truce—Jason isn’t the only one with a hidden agenda, and Elena is about to uncover truths that could destroy them both. When business and emotions intertwine, the line between hate and something deeper blurs. Will Elena and Jason continue their war of wills, or will the contract that binds them become the very thing that sets them free?

The key of underworld

Sukhdeep "Sukhi" Singh, the undisputed king of Asia's underworld, is dead. His seemingly routine public execution, orchestrated by rival Sanjay Shukla, ignites a firestorm that threatens to consume the continent. But Sukhi's death is not the end; it's the beginning of a brutal war of succession, a scramble for power that will leave cities burning and loyalties shattered. Before his demise, Sukhi, a man of cunning and foresight, anticipated the inevitable power vacuum. He secreted ten keys, each a piece of a puzzle that unlocks his vast empire – hidden fortunes, strategic alliances, and deadly secrets capable of reshaping the criminal landscape. These keys are not mere physical objects; they are fragments of Sukhi's legacy, each leading to a different facet of his meticulously constructed network. As news of Sukhi's death spreads, his former lieutenants, trusted confidantes, and ambitious rivals emerge from the shadows. They are a diverse and ruthless cast: hardened killers, tech-savvy hackers, cunning diplomats, and vengeful heirs, all driven by ambition, greed, or a desperate need for survival. The hunt for the ten keys becomes a deadly game, a high-stakes race where alliances are forged and broken with brutal efficiency. Each key unlocks a new layer of Sukhi's intricate plan, revealing hidden agendas and long-buried betrayals. The players navigate a treacherous web of double-crosses, assassinations, and clandestine operations, their paths crossing and clashing in a whirlwind of violence. From the opulent penthouses of Mumbai to the gritty back alleys of Bangkok, the search for the keys leads them across continents, pitting them against rival gangs, corrupt officials, and even shadowy government agencies. Each key discovered brings them closer to Sukhi's ultimate prize, but also deeper into a labyrinth of danger and deceit. As the body count rises and the stakes escalate, the true nature of Sukhi's legacy is revealed. Was he a benevolent king, a ruthless tyrant, or something far more complex? The answer lies hidden within the ten keys, and only the one who unlocks them all will inherit the throne of the underworld, forever changing the balance of power. But the question remains, will anyone survive the brutal war to claim it?

Universal DOOM : Reborn Of The genius CE0

Universal DOOM: Reborn Of The Genius CEO The World After the Cataclysm The world as humanity knew it was irrevocably changed by the Cataclysm, a phenomenon that merged Earth with the fantastical realms of the MMORPG Legends of the Five Realms. Boundaries between reality and the game dissolved, unleashing mythical landscapes, races, and creatures onto the planet. Humans found themselves struggling to survive amidst the chaos, faced with dangers that had once been confined to digital screens. The New Order The gods of the dark races, known as Hegemons, seized control, establishing their dominion over vast territories. However, they offered humanity a lifeline—a "Carnal" of survival. This boon was granted only to those who played the game before the Cataclysm, allowing them to fuse with their in-game accounts, carrying over their levels, skills, equipment, and even reputations. For non-players, survival depended on luck and innate potential. Some awakened as one of the human race classes from the game, unlocking hidden bloodlines, talents, and the ability to grow stronger through trials. Others, however, remained powerless, relying on wit and alliances to endure. Key Characters The Main Character (MC) Name: Bakr Kael (formerly a hardcore gamer with the handle ShadowProphet) Traits: Calculating and resourceful. Struggles with guilt over his initial excitement for the chaos, knowing many innocent lives were lost. A natural leader but hesitant to trust others fully. Abilities: Cosmic blueprints for constructing powerful artifacts, fortresses, and armies; reality-warping designs; unparalleled kingdom-building capabilities. Supporting Characters 1. Mira Solen Role: An awakened human with the Paladin class. Background: Formerly a paramedic, Mira’s compassion and resolve make her a natural protector. Her faith in humanity contrasts with Bakr’s cynicism. Abilities: Healing light, divine shields, and powerful smites against dark forces. 2. Kael Dorian Role: A fused player with the Engineer class. Background: A tech-savvy gamer who specialized in crafting intricate mechanical constructs in the game. Now, he builds defensive structures and innovative weapons to aid survivors. Personality: Sarcastic but fiercely loyal, Kael serves as the team’s strategist. 3. Liana Nyx Role: An NPC from the game who gained sentience after the Cataclysm. Background: Once a quest-giver in Evria, Liana adapts quickly to her new existence, offering invaluable knowledge about the game’s mechanics and lore. Abilities: Arcane mastery and prophetic visions tied to the game’s storyline. 4. Rogar Thorne Role: A dark player aligned with the Hegemons. Background: A ruthless PvP player who uses the chaos for his gain. Rogar sees Bakr as both a rival and a threat to his ambitions. Abilities: Necromancy, summoning, and life-draining attacks. The Fused and the Awakened The Fused Players who played Legends of the Five Realms before the Cataclysm and fused with their in-game accounts. Advantages: Retain all stats, abilities, and gear. Challenges: Must reconcile their digital personas with their real-world selves. Some succumb to megalomania. The Awakened Ordinary humans who gained classes and abilities randomly upon the Cataclysm.
