To make matters worse, he is broke and jobless, making her feel trapped in a surreal nightmare. Desperate for escape, Delilah demands a divorce, but the stranger—insisting he wants to stay married—thwarts every attempt. Frustration and confusion mount until Delilah hatches a new plan: she proposes they team up to con her next target, the elusive billionaire, Hunter Quinn. What Delilah doesn't realize is that her "broke husband" is actually Hunter Quinn himself. Billionaire CEO, Hunter Quinn, having discovered Delilah’s intentions to con him, had decided to outplay her at her own game. Hunter agrees to the partnership, and together they plunge into a high-stakes game of deceit. As they plot and scheme, the lines between pretense and reality blur. Their forced proximity ignites an unexpected chemistry, leading to moments of vulnerability and genuine connection neither anticipated. Caught in a whirlwind of deception, passion, and power plays, Delilah grapples with their growing feelings. As their con deepens, she must confront the ultimate question: Can she open her heart to love and trust again? ****Exerpt**** Delilah’s eyes darted to the marriage certificate again, the official seal glaring back at her. Her fingers itched to tear it apart, to make this nightmare disappear. But deep down, she knew that wouldn’t change anything. “I don’t remember,” she whispered, more to herself than to him. “I don’t remember any of it.” Blake nodded as if he had expected this reaction. “That is expected. You had a lot to drink last night.” he fished out a phone from the back pocket of his trousers, opened it. “Here, this is us celebrating, after we got married last night,” he said, showing her a picture. Delilah’s breath caught in her throat as she stared at the photo. It was indeed her. “How?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I don’t remember any of this.” “It was a wild night,” he said softly. Perhaps she had married Blake because he was wealthy. That would be the only logical reason for her to make such a blunder. There was hope, she thought, as she clung to the possibility of salvaging something from this disaster. Turning to him, she forced a smile, “Is this your house? Are we in your house?” She asked, looking around the bedroom. Blake shook his head, “No. This is a hotel,” he said, and she nodded. “I see. It looks like quite an expensive hotel,” she observed, “What do you do for a living?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady as she searched his eyes for any hint of affluence. Blake hesitated, his confident demeanor faltering for the first time. He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m... in between jobs,” he stuttered, avoiding her gaze. Delilah’s heart sank, disappointment crashing over her like a wave. “In between jobs?” she echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. Blake seemed to sense her dismay. “I know it doesn’t sound great,” he said quickly, trying to reassure her. “But I’m working on a few things. I just need a little more time.” “You’re jobless,” she muttered to herself as reality sunk in. “How did you pay for this room? For the wedding bands?” She asked, and he winced. “I didn’t. You did,” he said, and she collapsed on the bed. (PS: Cover photo isn’t mine. Credit to the real owner)

Kidnapped By The Lycan Prince - (Moved to a new link)

Delilah Rivers is an outcast in the Moonhaven Pack due to her mixed human-wolf heritage. Her inability to shift into a wolf and the shame of her mother’s forbidden union make her a constant target of ridicule. Alpha Rowan, her uncle, allows her to stay but treats her with disdain, while her cousin Theo oscillates between pity and resentment. Meanwhile, the werewolf packs are fractured after the royal Goldencrest Pack withdrew from governance decades ago. The Goldencrest Pack, made up of powerful Lycans, is the ruling class of werewolf society. Their absence allowed power-hungry alphas like Rowan to dominate, causing political strife and rogue attacks, and Prince Caspian, heir to Goldencrest, aims to restore unity. When Delilah gets humiliated and rejected by her mate, she decides that she's had enough with her pack and flees. Coincidentally, rogue activity threatens Moonhaven and Caspian gets word of it. He goes to intervene and finds Delilah being threatened by the rouges. At first, he mistakes her for one of them and takes her into his custody, believing that he can get information out of her. But he later realises that not only is she the neice of the Alpha of moonhaven, but she's also his mate, although she can't really sense the mate bond due to her being majorly human. At Goldencrest, Delilah is thrust into a world of power and intrigue. Her fiery spirit clashes with Caspian’s arrogance, masking a growing attraction between them. Caspian is unable to ignore the strings of the mate bond pulling him closer to Delilah, and she has this unexplained attraction towards him. She discovers that it's a new mating bond and she's scared to explore it, after getting rejected once by her mate. While Caspian tries to untangle the rogue issues, she decides to help in her own little way, tired of being seen as weak. This leads her to discover her uncle’s dark secrets: he orchestrated her parents’ deaths to prevent her dormant powers from threatening his rule. Theo is complicit, suppressing Delilah’s abilities to secure his own position in Moonhaven. Caspian and Delilah uncover a conspiracy behind the rogue attacks, led by Lucian, Caspian’s estranged brother. Exiled after a failed rebellion, Lucian seeks revenge and has allied with Rowan to overthrow Goldencrest. As Delilah’s dormant powers awaken, she becomes pivotal in the fight against the rogues. Her dual heritage grants her unique abilities, but it also fulfills a misunderstood prophecy about a half-human werewolf who will either unite or destroy the packs. Theo betrays Delilah, revealing her growing powers to Lucian. Feeling abandoned and doubting herself, Delilah questions her place in the werewolf world. Caspian, torn between love and duty, struggles to trust her. Eventually, they both give into their love and desires and they are fully mated under the moonlight. Things appear peaceful for a while but everything begins to tilt again. A massive rogue attack on Goldencrest forces the divided packs to unite. Delilah’s powers fully manifest, allowing her to shift into a wolf for the first time, but severing her connection to her human side. Her transformation astounds the packs, but it also alienates her from Caspian. During the battle, Delilah confronts Rowan, who reveals his plan to betray Lucian and seize control of the packs. Theo redeems himself by sacrificing his life to protect Delilah, confessing his envy of her strength. In a final confrontation, Delilah sacrifices her human side that she had come to embrace and love to defeat Lucian, fully embracing her wolf side and ensuring the survival of the packs. With Lucian defeated, Delilah and Caspian emerge as leaders of a united werewolf society. Delilah, the once weak and mistreated human is now a celebrated wolf for her bravery and her mating with Prince Caspian. She is able to recover her human side, and her life as the new werewolf queen with the now King Caspian by her side is brighter than her life has ever been.

Synopsis #R-18 (Mature Content - No Rape) "If the beast inside you could be healed, I will heal it with my love," ~~~~ "What secrets are you holding, Delilah?" The Elder prince stepped forward. "S-secrets? W-what secrets? I am not hiding anything," Delilah whispered, her heart drumming against her chest as she tried her best to hide what was going on. The man in front of her smirked before he gripped her throat and pulled her close, loving the sound of her fast-beating heart. "Is that so? Do I make you nervous?" "A little," Delilah admitted. The smirk on the prince's face widened. "Good. Only I am allowed to make you nervous, just like only you are allowed to touch and have this kind of effect on me," The prince rubbed her lips with his thumb before leaning closer, their breaths coming sharp as he gazed into her eyes. "The moment you allow another man to make you feel anything, he will end up dead, and you, you my sweetheart will end up naked under me while I punish you for even looking at others," Zephyr whispered before he crashed his lips on hers, undressing her gently. ~~~~~~ On the mission to find the hidden secrets of the most powerful ancient wolves, Katherine Moon, the leader of the special task force, found herself in a fatal situation. Betrayed by her own organization, she closed her eyes with just one wish, the wish to find out why they betrayed her as she took her last breath. Bestowed by mercy from the heavens, Katherine finds herself reincarnated in the body of a petite girl, Delilah Rosewood. Delilah Rosewood, who had entered the royal palace as the cousin of the Alpha's daughter, committed suicide after being rejected by the commander of the royal army. Katherine had never thought she would get the chance to get her answers in this lifetime, but now that life has given her this opportunity, she must secure it. However, there were some problems with her plans. "Well, I am the problem that will lead you to a better life!" Her system shouted. First, she got a system to monitor her life. Task#12- Prepare a sweet dish for the prince. Reward#- 10 points in strength. Second, the system wanted her to seduce the future alpha king if she wanted to make this body stronger. If being reincarnated in a weak body wasn't enough, the body didn't even have a wolf. "Aaaaaa! Fuck my life!" Katherine groaned. "This isn't your life. You must help Delilah reach her destiny," the system's voice came again, making her groan. "If you want to become stronger, you must seduce the future alpha king," The system said again. What Katherine didn't know was that the man in the hidden palace already had his eyes on her. "Sir, is that lady the only one you can touch?" His subordinate asked. Zephyr's eyes shone brightly. "Yes, and I want that girl to be mine," Zephyr said. "But sir, it looks like after being rejected by the commander, she has made your brother her next target," Jacob whispered. "It's a statement, Jacob. That girl is mine. Full stop." Zephyr licked his lower lip as he looked at the girl dancing on the ground after eating a freshly picked cherry Katherine, unaware of the elder prince's intentions, gets ready to bear it all and live her new life with new tasks, but what happens when she finds out the system she was living with was fake? A fake system? It's bearable… Right? But what about the powers who have started to go haywire inside her? And why do Gypsies keep visiting her in both her lives? Just who was this Delilah Rosewood?
