Penthouse Carpets

Anastasia Isabela Araneta Gutierrez was born with everything—wealth, pedigree, and a name that opens every door. Her family owns hospitals, restaurants, and an empire built on elegance. But despite the power in her bloodline, she moves through life quietly, graceful, untouchable, and always just out of reach. While her brother dominates global headlines as a K-pop icon, Anastasia keeps her world small. She rides horses, not red carpets. Wins medals, not applause. And in every victory, she remains unreadable, a girl who never flinches, never folds, and never asks for more. Because the truth is, she’s used to being second. Second in attention. Second in love. Second in everything. But cold doesn’t mean careless. And quiet doesn’t mean weak. They think they know her. They don’t. She’s not here to prove anything. She just wants to be seen for who she is, not who she isn’t.

Cherry Lips Isabella Voss, a fiery aspiring artist with cherry-red lips and a past she’d rather forget, never expected to catch the eye of Julian Blackwood, a reclusive billionaire whose cold exterior hides a hunger for connection. When a chance encounter at a high-society art gala sparks an undeniable attraction, their worlds collide in a whirlwind of desire, power, and secrets. Julian, used to controlling everything, finds himself unraveling under Isabella’s bold charm, while she grapples with the vulnerability of surrendering to a man who could break her heart—or her carefully rebuilt life. As their passionate affair deepens, hidden enemies and past betrayals threaten to tear them apart. From opulent penthouses to sultry late-night rendezvous, Cherry Lips is a tale of lust, love, and the high stakes of trusting someone with your soul.

"You should’ve walked away, Ariella. But now that I’ve touched you, I won’t ever let you go." "You're dangerous, Dominic. And I’m terrified that I want you anyway." "He was supposed to be a one-night fantasy. But now I live in his penthouse... under his rules." When 22-year-old Ariella Lane agrees to deliver a cake to a luxury penthouse, she expects a simple drop-off. What she didn't expect was Dominic Moretti, the dangerously handsome billionaire with a commanding presence and eyes that burns with sin. When she sees something she shouldn’t, she became his liability. And in Dominic’s world, liabilities don’t walk away. Now she’s trapped in his gilded cage, a prisoner of pleasure. He says it’s for her safety. She thinks it’s obsession. But as dark secrets unravel and bodies start to drop, Ariella realizes one terrifying truth. She’s no longer just his captive. She’s his weakness. And in the mafia world, weaknesses are destroyed.

When Aria Lane’s family is drowning in debts they can’t repay, she makes the one choice she swore she never would: she sells herself. Not on the streets but in a discreet, binding contract with Luca Cross, the cold billionaire who has everything… except an heir. The deal is simple. Her body, her obedience, his child. Fifty thousand dollars for her freedom and her silence. But Luca never plays by the rules. What starts as a transaction quickly twists into something neither of them can control. In his glass-and-steel penthouse high above the city, Aria is both captive and temptation, fighting to hold onto the last scraps of her pride while Luca tests every boundary she tries to set. He is possessive, ruthless, and unreasonably patient. She is defiant, furious, and terrified of how much she wants him to want her for more than what she can give. And when the lines blur between power and passion, between hatred and desire, Aria discovers there are things even more dangerous than loving a man like Luca Cross like falling for the parts of him he swears he doesn’t have. Because some chains can’t be broken. Some secrets can’t stay hidden. And some claims are forever.

Durin stroked the black cat on the armrest of his chair, sitting on the black leather sofa. Through the glasses perched on his nose, his gaze passed over the long table in front of him and settled on the man kneeling on the carpet: "I understand, you've made money in Naples, your business has been very successful, and you've led a happy life. You've had those secret police, friends in both the law and the underground, and even the Royal Family speaking on your behalf." "You don't need a friend like me, I know that. You're afraid of owing me a favor, and you don't want to get involved in troubles." "But now you come to me and say, 'I beg you, Mr. Durin of the Corleon family, please help me seek justice, so that my life and my family will not suffer and sink into despair.' Yet, in your eyes, I was nothing more than a second-rate artist involved in movies and music. Even at the brink of death, you still show me such disrespect, not even willing to call me by my title... Keeper of Secrets."

Genre: Billionaire Romance / Obsession / Corporate War / Emotional Drama *** A sharp-tongued small-town girl falls into the dangerous love of the most powerful oil mogul in Mexico. But when she becomes the target of his enemies—and his obsession—she must decide if love is worth losing herself… or if he’s worth betraying. *** Joseph León was the most feared name in oil — Mexico’s oil tycoon with empires that stretched across oceans. His name opened doors in Dubai, whispered in Geneva, and commanded boardrooms in Texas. But in the private sanctum of his glass-walled penthouse above Mexico City, the only thing that brought him to his knees… was Green. Green Ariza. The sharp-tongued, warm-eyed girl from the southeast — who didn’t care for oil, power, or the billions in his offshore accounts. And that terrified Joseph more than any corporate war. She stormed into his office, her heels clicking furiously against the Italian marble. Her designer leather bag slammed onto the chair with finality. “I want to talk to you, Joseph!” she snapped. Behind his desk, Joseph was mid-call with a venture capitalist from Qatar, trying to lock in a deal worth $1.3 billion. He held up one finger without looking up — only for a second — then paused. His eyes met hers. Sharp. Furious. Tired of something. He ended the call. “I’ll speak to you later,” he said calmly, before the voice on the other line could protest. “Yes, I know it’s urgent.” He hung up, removed his glasses, and leaned back in his chair. His gaze softened. “What does my love want that has her so upset?” he asked, like the storm in her eyes didn’t scare him. “A Maserati? Givenchy? My black card is right there—just whisper what you want, and it’s yours.” Green exhaled, shaking her head. “I’m not here for gifts, Joseph.” “I know.” “No, you don’t. You always think money can fix things.” “I absolutely don’t think that.” “You bought the company I worked for because I said I was scared of getting fired—how is that not thinking money fixes things?” “I bought it,” he said quietly, “because it was the only way I could keep seeing you. You were avoiding me. Saying you couldn’t risk your job. So I made it yours. You’re head of creative strategy now. With triple your old salary. And you only work when you want.” She turned away, rubbing her forehead. “Green,” he said, his voice a low murmur now. “Can I touch you?” She blinked at him. “Are you asking permission to touch me?” “You usually get angry when I touch you during a fight,” he said honestly, standing slowly. “You say I use it to make you forget why you’re mad.” “…Because you do.” “And you let me.” She turned to face him, and for a moment, neither said a word. He reached out, gently, his hand grazing her elbow. “So tell me, why are you really angry?” She looked away. “Is it because of the girl at the gala?” he asked. Her head snapped back toward him. “She’s like a sister. My father’s goddaughter.” “She was holding your hand.” “She’s grieving. Her brother was assassinated in Bogotá.” Green stepped back, arms folded. “You don’t even see how many women throw themselves at you. My mother tells me I’m stupid for staying. That I should leave you and marry someone safer. Someone like Don Frederick.” Joseph’s jaw tightened. “Don Frederick is a snake with a fake smile and a poisoned chalice. He’s not safe, he’s subtle. That’s worse.” “My mother doesn’t care,” Green said bitterly. “She only sees headlines. And dollar signs.” “What do you see?” he asked, stepping closer. “When you look at me. What do you see?” She didn’t answer. He touched her cheek, gently. “Do you think I’d let myself love anyone but you? I’d burn down every oil well I own before I lose you.” She blinked. “Don’t say things like that.” “Why? Because you believe me?” “No,” she whispered. “Because I do.”

And in a single, breathless moment, I surrendered everything I thought I knew about desire. Now I’m tangled in a world of luxury and temptation I can’t escape. He says he doesn’t do commitment. He says he can’t offer more than tonight.

But when Lily Anderson stood before him, her chin lifted in quiet defiance, and something in him snapped. "Sign the contract," he said, his voice like ice. "30 days. You’ll obey every command. After that, you’re free." She hesitated, her fingers trembling as she gripped the pen. "And if I refuse?" His smirk was cold, but his eyes burned. "Then you’ll spend the rest of your life paying off your father’s debts. Your choice." Trapped, Lily signed. But she vowed one thing: she wouldn’t let him break her.

[Author's note: This novel will contain EXPLICIT CONTENT] Three weeks since I died. Three weeks since I woke up in this body. Three weeks of pretending to be Julian Marino—the family disappointment. I stretched in my king-sized bed, staring at the ceiling of my penthouse. The old Julian lived in the family basement. But the old Julian didn't have a system that rewarded sin. [Good Morning, Host] [Daily Sin Quest Available] [Current Sin Points: 127] Not bad for three weeks of work. The morning sun hit different when you weren't worried about assassination attempts. Though in this family, that could change by lunch. My phone buzzed. Seventeen missed calls from Dad. The Don can wait. I've got coffee to drink. I rolled out of bed, catching my reflection in the floor-length mirror. The system's physical enhancement was subtle but effective—jawline sharper, muscles more defined, eyes that held danger instead of fear. "Looking good, Julian," I told myself. "Or should I say, looking better." The old Julian was soft. Weak. Spent his days reading manga and avoiding family business. Me? I spent ten years in black ops learning how to kill with a paperclip. Different worlds, same bullshit. [Morning Routine Complete] [Confidence +1]

Julian Croft, the rich jerk who loved stomping on Leo back in the day, was back at it – flexing hard: "Oh, just closed a seven-figure deal? Chump change, really. Picked up this penthouse overlooking Central Park on a whim. Views are kinda okay, I guess." "Oh yeah, and downstairs? My custom McLaren Speedtail. Only 106 made worldwide, you know? Mine's got... special touches. Having it brought over later." Ding! Your "Face-Slapping Delivery Service" has arrived! Leo's phone buzzes: Penthouse Deed - Acquired! His pocket suddenly weighs a ton: McLaren Key Fob - Acquired! Leo stared, dumbfounded: Since when did phishing scams... get so hardcore?!

One contract. One year. Zero feelings. Emily Torres signed her name to save her brother. Liam Westwood signed to bury a secret. But neither expected sparks—let alone passion that burns hotter than the lies they’re both hiding. In a penthouse full of rules and a heart full of scars, Emily finds herself tangled in a web of mafia ties, wolf-blooded truths, and a husband who plays the game too well. In this dangerous dance of deception, love was never supposed to be on the table. But fate doesn't care about rules.

WPC JULY 2025 Once, Auren Voss was a ruthless CEO — a man whose handshake felt like a contract with the devil. Betrayed by his own board and shot down at his 102-story penthouse, he opens his eyes again… not in a hospital, but in the rotting shell of an abandoned prince. Prince Caelus Babylon was the kingdom’s greatest shame — born with a cursed soul too powerful for his frail body. Cast out to a forgotten castle, left to rot under leaking ceilings and moldy tapestries, everyone waited for the day the “Soulcursed” heir would die quietly. They got their wish. Except Caelus didn’t stay dead. Now, with the memories of a dying prince and the mind of a cold-blooded corporate predator, Auren inherits more than a body — he inherits a single chance to claw back life from a kingdom that threw him away. His soul still burns too bright for his fragile body. His kingdom is rotting on borrowed time. His name is spoken like a curse by those who cast him out. Swearing he will find a solution for his illness, a Redline suddenly appears and leads him to an answer no sane people would dare touch: a demon’s bargain. Abandoned and forgotten? That’s good. I’ll secretly build my power with demons.

"You got it wrong. What you needed wasn’t money. They do it to you. Yeah, that was basically it. What you really needed was... support. Care. Love. You need to grow up. And understand that money means everything — and nothing. Because the things you chase? They can vanish in the blink of an eye. You should know that by now." ---- Nova was only fourteen when the world first called her special. A song, a screen, and a million views later — she was the girl with the voice, the face, the future. But nobody warned her about the price of becoming someone. As fame wrapped its glittering hands around her life, Nova let go of the people who mattered most — her family, her friends… and Caleb, the only one who ever saw the real her. With each red carpet and fake smile, her soul faded, and the dream she once chased turned into a prison she built with her own hands. By twenty-two, she had it all. By twenty-three, she lost everything. Now at twenty-six, Nova is done pretending. This is not a story about a pop star. It’s a story about growing up too fast, losing yourself too easily, and finding your way back — when no one’s watching. A raw, emotional, and unfiltered tale of identity, healing, and the slow, painful beauty of rediscovery. ---
