The Pact Sharon Bolton

Sharon war eine gewöhnliche Person, während ihr Mann, Wallace Harris, ein vielversprechender und gut aussehender Mann war. Seine Familie gehörte zu den angesehensten und reichsten Familien in New York City. Dass sie Wallace heiraten konnte, war ein Zufall. In den drei Jahren ihrer Ehe hatte Wallace nie mit Sharon geschlafen. Auch seine Familie überredete ihn immer wieder, sich von Sharon scheiden zu lassen. Es war die Geburtstagsfeier der alten Matriarchin der Familie Harris, und alle jungen Leute der Familie Harris hatten die teuersten Geschenke gemacht, um die alte Dame glücklich zu machen - alle außer Sharon. Sie bat Madam Harris um Geld für den alten Haushälter, Onkel Smith, da er kein Geld für seine medizinische Behandlung hatte. Aber wie zu erwarten war, wurde sie von der Familie Harris gedemütigt, als sie darum bat. "Die Familie Harris hatte noch nie eine arme Verwandte wie dich. Lass dich nie wieder in meiner Gegenwart blicken! Wallace hätte Crystal heiraten sollen. Sie ist sicherlich eine junge Dame, die es wert ist, in unsere Familie einzuheiraten", sagte Madam Harris. "Bitte weiß, wo du hingehörst und verschwinde von hier. Bleiben Sie nicht mehr in unserem Haus. Wie kann Wallaces Großvater so töricht sein, eine arme, nutzlose Frau wie dich mit meinem Sohn zu verheiraten?", sagte June, Wallaces Mutter. "Es sind nur ein paar Millionen Dollar, aber du bist so arm, dass du dir von unserer Familie etwas leihen musst. Wie kann eine Frau wie du es verdienen, mit Wallace zusammen zu sein? Wenn es Crystal wäre, hätte sie uns bestimmt nicht so blamiert!" An diesem Abend überreichte Wallace Sharon eine Bankkarte, auf der Millionen von Dollar standen. "Die Firma ist in der Entwicklung, deshalb habe ich nicht viel Bargeld. Du kannst das benutzen, um Onkel Smith zu helfen." Angesichts der Feindseligkeit der Familie Harris erklärte Wallace: "Da ich sie geheiratet habe, bin ich für sie verantwortlich. Egal, ob sie reich oder arm ist, Sharon ist meine Frau." Erst als eines Tages ein Fremder Sharon ansprach, wusste sie, dass sie eine Frau war. Erst da wusste Sharon, dass sie die Tochter einer angesehenen Familie war, die Anspruch auf ein Vermögen von mindestens zehn Milliarden hatte. Plötzlich besaß sie das größte Unternehmen in New York und eine Bankkarte, die Hunderte von Millionen an "Taschengeld" enthielt. Im Handumdrehen hatte sich ihre Identität verändert. Sie war nicht mehr die arme Schwiegertochter, die von der Familie Harris nicht bevorzugt wurde. Stattdessen war sie die angesehenste Person in New York geworden!

In her previous life, she had wronged and divorced the man who truly loved her, and by the time she realized her mistake, it was too late. Now, granted a second chance to make things right, she carries the knowledge of the future. Will she seize this opportunity to redeem herself?

Follow Vanessa as she sets out to seduce her ex-husband in this dramatic, heart-pounding tale.

Nora Calder swore she’d never return to Cutler Cove, the coastal town where she left her heart—and Elias Hart—ten years ago. But when the lighthouse that holds their teenage pact faces demolition, she’s back, armed with grit and a secret that drove her away: her father’s ruinous debts. At 34, she’s got one shot to save the tower—and maybe herself—before the council tears it down. Elias, now a rugged contractor engaged to sweet, steady Leah, didn’t expect Nora’s return to crack his world open. Their pact—if single at 35, they’d marry atop the lighthouse—haunts him as she fights for the crumbling landmark he’s hired to destroy. Old initials carved in the railing and stolen glances reignite a fire he thought was ash, but loyalty and love pull him in two. As storms batter the coast and the town splits over the lighthouse’s fate, Nora and Elias clash, then cling—unearthing her past, shattering his future, and rebuilding more than stone. From desperate kisses in the lantern room to a festival that could save it all, they face a deadline that’s more than a vote: six months to prove the tower’s worth, and theirs. In a tangle of sweat, salt, and second chances, The Lighthouse Pact is a raw, steamy romance about love that won’t stay buried—and a promise that might just hold.

Sharon adalah orang biasa, sementara suaminya, Wallace Harris, adalah seorang pria yang menjanjikan dan tampan. Keluarganya adalah salah satu keluarga paling bergengsi dan terkaya di Kota New York. Dapat menikahi Wallace adalah sebuah kecelakaan. Sepanjang tiga tahun pernikahan mereka, Wallace tidak pernah tidur dengan Sharon. Keluarganya juga terus membujuknya untuk menceraikan Sharon. Itu adalah pesta ulang tahun matriark tua keluarga Harris, dan semua orang muda dari keluarga Harris telah memberikan hadiah paling mahal yang mungkin untuk membuat nenek bahagia—kecuali Sharon. Dia meminta untuk meminjam uang dari Nyonya Harris untuk penjaga rumah tua, Paman Smith, karena dia tidak punya uang untuk membayar pengobatan medisnya. Tapi seperti yang diduga, keluarga Harris menghinanya saat dia meminta. "Keluarga Harris belum pernah memiliki kerabat miskin seperti kamu. Jangan pernah muncul di hadapanku lagi! Wallace seharusnya menikahi Crystal. Dia tentunya seorang gadis muda yang layak menikah dengan keluarga kita!" kata Nyonya Harris. "Ketahuilah tempatmu dan pergilah dari sini. Jangan tinggal di rumah kami lagi. Bagaimana kakek Wallace bisa begitu bodoh menikahi wanita miskin dan tak berguna seperti kamu untuk anakku?!" kata Juni, ibu Wallace. "Hanya beberapa juta dolar, tetapi kamu begitu miskin sehingga perlu meminjam dari keluarga kami. Bagaimana seorang wanita sepertimu pantas bersama Wallace? Jika itu Crystal, dia tentunya tidak akan mempermalukan kami sebanyak ini!" Malam itu, Wallace memberikan Sharon sebuah kartu bank, yang berisi jutaan dolar. "Perusahaan sedang berkembang, jadi saya tidak banyak memiliki uang tunai. Kamu bisa menggunakan ini untuk membantu Paman Smith." Menghadapi permusuhan keluarga Harris, Wallace menyatakan, "Karena saya telah menikahinya, dia adalah tanggung jawabku. Terlepas dari dia kaya atau miskin, Sharon adalah istriku." Hanya sampai suatu hari seorang asing mendekati Sharon. Baru saat itu Sharon tahu bahwa dia adalah putri dari keluarga terkemuka yang berhak menerima aset setidaknya sepuluh miliar.

Dia tidak lagi menjadi menantu perempuan miskin yang tidak disukai oleh keluarga Harris. Sebaliknya, dia telah menjadi orang paling bergengsi di New York!

Liang Weining rose to become a 'favorite' of Mr. Chen, the capital magnate of the Hong Kong Region, in just six months. The outside world said she climbed up by her beauty. No matter how good a vase might look, it can't escape being discarded once the owner grows tired of it. As such, everyone watched and waited. After three long years, they finally received news of Liang Weining's dismissal. While the entire upper circle thought Liang Weining had become history, nobody knew that on the eve of New Year's Eve, an entertainment reporter captured a romantic moment. In a black business car parked underneath the Zhonggang headquarters building, the backseat window was half-lowered, and Mr. Chen, who was always dignified and composed, unexpectedly lost control. In the mottled shadows, he grabbed the chin of a young girl and kissed her fiercely. The photos were exposed that same night, and a heavy snow fell over the Eastern Suburbs of Beijing. Inside the Mid-hill Villa, the fireplace blazed warmly. The man took the girl's soft, boneless hand from behind and guided her to write on the Xuan paper: Chen Jingyuan. "When will we go public?" he asked in a low voice. As soon as he'd finished speaking, the mobile phone screen lit up. The exclusive breaking news headline from the Hong Kong media flashed before their eyes again, and Liang Weining fretted over the news title, "Let's wait a bit longer." Chen Jingyuan's voice was slightly deep, "What are you worried about?" "My dad's blood pressure has been unstable lately." Years later, Mr. Chen gave an interview to the media, addressing personal issues. Reporter: "For you, what was the biggest obstacle in pursuing Mrs. Chen back then?" Mr. Chen paused for a few seconds, then smiled lightly, "My father-in-law's blood pressure." - High-ranking man X female secretary | 90% sweet | 8 years older.

This hilarious fantasy story mixes mythological figures, cosmic entities, and a wolf babysitter with just too much contracts on his hands. It revolves around a Monstrous—though, gullible—wolf, reduced to a babysitter and a magnet for bad contracts. Ruben—formerly Ravenswood—is a classic “grumpy but good-hearted” reluctant hero. He is powerful and fearsome, but his terrible decision-making and misfortune always puts him in some kind of inconvenient pact. He got captured by a Human, who later tricked him into a lifelong contract of protecting his daughter, Alicia—whose identity is shrouded in mystery—who also turned out to be a psychotic Yandere! In an attempt to flee the suddenly-catastrophic Gihon—which is earth—with the Human’s daughter, Ruben was obstructed by Pluto, who also tricked him into an absurd pact to slay THE Cthulhu, as the ticket to let him through the other world. Ruben urgently sought to escape Gihon, so he unwisely agreed, only to recall who the all-powerful Cthulhu was. It was too late, though. Successfully crossing worlds to Pison—another type of earth—our Fenrir was met with the “Queen of the coast,” also known as Leviathan—a severe pervert. She attacked and defeated him, but when he woke up, she had apparently made a Master-servant pact with him, in his sleep. As they traveled seeking human cities in Pison, our misfortunate wolfie encountered a godman; Jobina, the daughter of Job, the second of the seven mortal powers. Jobina—a masochist with a vendetta against Leviathan, and a tendency to turn everything into a competition—attacked him for being associated with the evil Leviathan, only to be soundly defeated. Shocked by reality, Jobina protested that she also wanted a pact with Ruben, so he’ll coach her to be powerful. And when the time is right, she’ll slay Leviathan! Our easy-to-fool protagonist, and his terrible life choices, agreed, recruiting yet another troublemaker he’d have to babysit. He only wants an easy going life without problems and crisis! The story has a larger plot, where Ruben—and his babies—constantly, “accidentally,” ruin Sarvest—the antagonist—plans. Sarvest is used to dealing with gods and cosmic entities, not an unworthy—yet effective—opponent in a bubbling wolf-turned-human. Ruben later meets what we would call God—a dumb teenager who only cares about entertainment—who also duped Ruben, using his kind-heartedness, into some kind of horrible pact. “The Silent Pact of a Wolf Babysitter” is a story filled with laughs, chaos, and unexpected twists. It follows Ruben’s misadventures as he navigates a world of cosmic powers, absurd pacts, and the challenges of babysitting a group of eccentric and overpowered individuals. With a larger plot involving Satanas’s grand schemes and Ruben’s accidental heroism, this tale promises both humor and a compelling narrative.

In the vampire-ruled kingdom of Mildelar, the Blood Games stand as the ultimate form of entertainment—savage battles between familiars, humans bound to their vampire masters through blood pacts. Far more than mere spectacles, these brutal fights determine the prestige of noble families, shaping their power and influence across the realm. Lyon, a young human saved from death by a blood pact with the alluring Arya Valakys—one of the king’s daughters—is unwillingly thrust into this cruel world. Bound to his mistress, he is forced into relentless battles to elevate her standing.

For the past three years, I’ve immersed myself in the world of Forex trading—learning new strategies, refining my skills, and seeking every opportunity to grow. One such opportunity was an online Forex trading contest that initially seemed like a golden ticket to success. The contest was promoted by a company that appeared reputable; the website was professionally designed, and the contest rules were clear, which made it all seem legitimate. Intrigued by the promise of a large cash reward, I decided to participate. The registration fee was set at $1,000—a price that seemed acceptable considering the potential return. I eagerly paid the fee and received an email confirming that I had advanced to the next stage of the contest. However, the excitement quickly turned to apprehension when I was informed that I needed to pay an additional $2,000 for shipping costs related to the prize package. At that moment, I had already invested $3,000 in what I believed was my path to a substantial prize. Trusting the process, I paid the shipping fee, assuming it was a necessary step toward securing my reward. But after that payment, the promised prize never arrived, and the communication from the organizers went silent. WhatsApp info:+12 (72332)—8343 Realizing something was wrong, I began to research the contest and the company behind it. To my dismay, I found numerous reports from other participants who had fallen victim to the same scheme, each losing significant sums of money. In total, I discovered I had lost $10,000—$1,000 for registration and an additional $9,000 over time in shipping fees. It was clear that I had been scammed.

Sharon era una persona común, mientras que su esposo, Wallace Harris, era un hombre prometedor y apuesto. Su familia era una de las familias más prestigiosas y adineradas de la ciudad de Nueva York. Casarse con Wallace fue un accidente. A lo largo de sus tres años de matrimonio, Wallace nunca había dormido con Sharon. Su familia también insistía en convencerlo de divorciarse de Sharon. Era la fiesta de cumpleaños de la anciana matriarca de la familia Harris, y todos los jóvenes de la familia Harris habían dado los regalos más caros posibles para hacer feliz a la anciana, todos menos Sharon. Ella pidió pedir dinero prestado a la señora Harris para el ama de llaves de la casa antigua, el tío Smith, ya que él no tenía dinero para pagar su tratamiento médico. Pero como se esperaba, la familia Harris la humilló cuando hizo la solicitud. —La familia Harris nunca ha tenido un pariente pobre como tú. ¡Nunca te aparezcas frente a mí de nuevo! Wallace debería haberse casado con Crystal. ¡Ella es sin duda una joven dama que merece casarse con nuestra familia! —dijo la señora Harris. —Por favor, conoce tu lugar y sal de aquí. No te quedes más en nuestra casa. ¿Cómo puede ser mi padre tan tonto de casar a una mujer pobre e inútil como tú con mi hijo? —dijo June, la madre de Wallace. —Son solo unos cuantos millones de dólares, pero eres tan pobre que necesitas pedir prestado de nuestra familia. ¿Cómo puede una mujer como tú merecer estar con Wallace? Si fuera Crystal, definitivamente no nos habría avergonzado tanto. Esa noche, Wallace le entregó a Sharon una tarjeta bancaria que contenía millones de dólares. —La empresa está en desarrollo, así que no tengo mucho efectivo. Puedes usar esto para ayudar al tío Smith. Enfrentándose a la hostilidad de la familia Harris, Wallace declaró: —Desde que me he casado con ella, es mi responsabilidad. Independientemente de que sea rica o pobre, Sharon es mi esposa. No fue hasta que un desconocido se acercó a Sharon un día. Solo entonces supo Sharon que ella era la hija de una de las familias más prestigiosas, y que tenía derecho a recibir activos por valor de al menos diez mil millones. De repente, ella era dueña de la empresa más grande de Nueva York y una tarjeta bancaria que contenía cientos de millones de «dinero de bolsillo». En un abrir y cerrar de ojos, su identidad había cambiado. Ya no era la nuera pobre que no era favorecida por la familia Harris. En cambio, se había convertido en la persona más prestigiosa de Nueva York.

Lucian Graves was born powerless in a world where beast taming determines status. Mocked by noble tamers and discarded by society, he should have lived and died as a nobody—until fate intervened. During an expedition gone wrong, Lucian stumbles upon an ancient Forbidden Pact, allowing him to tame not just beasts but beings considered untamable—succubi, eldritch horrors, divine phoenixes, and even fallen goddesses. Unlike others, his bond isn’t a simple contract; it’s intimate, symbiotic, and ever-evolving. Every tamed entity grants him knowledge, abilities, and, occasionally, a dangerously alluring companion. As he ascends the ranks, Lucian finds himself entangled in the power struggles of celestial factions, demonic queens, and secretive organizations that seek to control the Forbidden Pact. But Lucian isn’t a fool—he plays the game with ruthless intelligence, exploiting every advantage his unique power grants.
