Baggage Claim Juliana Smith

Betrayed By My Ex-Husband, Claimed By His Half-Brother

“I beg you, Mia. Please tell me that this child is mine,” Henry begged as he looked at the woman holding the little boy in her arms. But, just as he reached forward to hug her— “Dear brother, just what do you think you are doing? Why are you trying to hug my wife and son?” Lucas stepped in between the two with a cheeky smile on his lips. He pointed to the boy and said, “Look carefully; he is my son.” Mia snorted upon hearing the two men fighting over her son. She hugged the little boy and smiled politely, “Last I remember, I was the one who gave birth to him. So carry on with your games, boys.” Mia Wills never knew how feeble life truly was until she lost everything in a matter of just a few hours. Seventy-two hours ago, she was a happily married woman who was about to head for her honeymoon. But seventy-two hours later, she met with her husband’s cold eyes, who asked her to divorce him. An accident ripped Mia’s world apart. Not only did it nearly take her life, it also took away Henry Holman’s memories. Her newly married husband. With more than three years of memories gone, Henry no longer remembered pursuing Mia and marrying her out of love. Instead, he believed the lies of his first love and girlfriend, Jamie Hudson, who spun a story where she was chased away by Mia, who took her place and married Henry by lying to him. And what did Henry do after listening to her lies? He demanded a divorce, chasing Mia away from his life. But how could Mia let go? She believed that as long as she persisted, Henry would remember her one day. But with the continuous torment and humiliation for months, including watching her husband bring his mistress to their wedding house, Mia could no longer hold on. She signed the divorce papers and left. She believed that with the divorce, she and Henry would never cross paths again. That was until Jamie’s callous scheme dragged her back not only in front of Henry but also in the bed of his half brother, Lucas Holman. Lucas Holman, the half brother of her ex-husband, was back in the city and he returned not only to take back what belonged to him but he was there to do it with a bang. And Mia, who was set to forget the night of their entanglement, found herself in another turmoil when Lucas offered a contract to marry her. In exchange, he promised to save her father. The temptation was too strong for Mia to ignore. But as she signed the contract, she swore to never fall for Lucas. But would she be able to keep her feelings at bay when Lucas starts showering her with his undivided attention? Was it truly an act of love or a part of his cruel scheme? Moreover, when a murder case binds Henry, Mia and Lucas together, what kind of secrets will be unravelled? Would they still be sane after the shards of truth pierce them? Or would they lose themselves forever?

Betrayed by Blood, Claimed by the Alpha

“P-please let me go..” I stammered and before I knew it, I was word vomiting while crying. “—I won’t return. You won’t ever see me again. I know you don’t want me as a mate. You hate me, so please let me go.” I cried out. Cain’s jaw tightened with each word that left my lips “What gave you the idea that you have the power to choose what you want?” His voice was low, “You don’t get to decide what, how, and when you leave. Only I get to do that. You don’t get to leave me, you don’t get to run! You only leave when I want you to.” "I didn’t ask for this,” I whispered, trembling. “I didn’t ask to be your mate.” Cain stepped back, “Neither did I,” he muttered under his breath. “But the bond doesn’t give us a choice, does it?” ~~~~ As the only child of her late Alpha father, Avery Jae was meant to inherit her family’s legacy.

Claimed by the Alien Lords: An Author’s Transmigration Tale

They Weren’t Just Hot Aliens—They Were Beast Men Too. And Now? The Universe Was Breaking Apart. ——————————————————— Hot Alien Lords. An Apocalypse. Strange Universes. A Glitching Storyline. Secrets, Betrayal, and a Fight for Survival. ——————————————————— She was just an overworked, underpaid author who fell asleep mid-chapter—only to wake up as a maid in her own novel. The bad news? She was trapped in the castle of three devastatingly attractive alien lords, brothers whose power could crush her in an instant. The worse news? In a world where females were plain at best, she’d somehow become the most jaw-droppingly gorgeous woman alive. Now, every jealous (and horrifyingly ugly) female wanted her dead, and the lords? They wouldn’t stop looking at her like she was their next meal. Her insider knowledge of the plot should’ve been her golden ticket, but the story? It was glitching. She’d written them as hot aliens who could transform into beasts—snakes, lions, and jaguars, to be exact. But seeing it firsthand? Terrifying. Their movements blurred the line between man and monster, predatory gazes locking onto her with an intensity she never typed into existence. Was this how they’d always been? Or was the world twisting into something else? Then came the real horror. An apocalyptic infection was spreading beyond the castle walls. People were mutating, becoming something... inhuman. The world itself was fracturing, opening doors to unknown universes that were never part of her original draft. One brother craved her like an obsession. Another wanted to break her. And the third? He carried a secret that could destroy everything. Thalina thought the lords would be the only males she’d have to mate with. Now? She wasn’t so sure. Between a castle full of murderous women, the dangerous desire of three alien beastmen, and a storyline spiraling out of her control, survival wasn’t just a goal anymore—it was the only thing keeping her from becoming another twisted piece of the story. Can she escape her own creation, or is she fated to die in a world she never meant to live in?

He didn’t want me, Axel. What does that make me to you?” “I don’t care about Álvaro’s foolishness. It's his loss for losing a woman like you.” “Okay, I must confess. I'm not worried about him either. It's Rosa… you're getting engaged to my sister in a month!” “Let me remind you, María José—I don’t give a fuck about that, either.” No matter how hard I jerked, he wasn’t letting me go.

Love, vengeance, and betrayal all brewed into a whirlwind of drama, desires, and deadly comebacks.

scarred by the Alpher, claimed by his touch.

Synopsis: In a world where Alphas rule with absolute power, Alpha Caidren Thorne stands above them all—a warlord feared for his cruelty, a ruler whose hands are stained with the blood of both enemies and kin. His lands are harsh, his rule even harsher, and his name alone is enough to strike terror into the hearts of those who hear it. But there is a darker truth hidden beneath his legend. Every Omega sent to him has perished. No one knows why. No one dares to ask. Some whisper that his presence alone is enough to snuff out their fragile lives, that no Omega can withstand his brutality. Others say that he is cursed, doomed to be alone forever. But Caidren does not care. He has never let anyone close—not a mate, not a lover, not even his own people. His heart is stone, and his hands are weapons. When the noble House Velmire is forced to offer him an Omega, they do not send their treasured daughter. Instead, they send Elias—an adopted outcast, a boy without a place in their world. Elias has spent his life alone, unwanted, and now, he is being sent to a fate worse than death. And when he arrives at the Bloodfang Stronghold, he is welcomed by a scene of horror. A man clothed in black can be seen writhing in agony. Blood soaking the ground. And standing above it all, delivering judgment with cold precision, is Alpha Caidren. Elias’ fear takes root instantly. This man is no savior. He is death itself. Caidren barely acknowledges him, dismissing him with a single glance. Another Omega. Another life that will soon disappear. But Elias does not die. Days pass. Then weeks. And for the first time, an Omega survives. Elias is not weak. He is not fragile. He is not like the others. And against every instinct, every warning, Caidren begins to take notice. What starts as indifference turns to fascination. What was once just another burden soon becomes something the Alpha refuses to let go of. For the first time in his life, Caidren is afraid—not of war, not of death, but of the one thing he never thought he could have. And when enemies rise and threaten to take Elias away, Caidren will burn the world to keep his Omega safe.
