Ichigo Flash Step

She gave up her dream of shining on the ballerina stage —for him. She sacrificed her self-respect —for him. She forgot her true identity —for him. But even after all that, she couldn’t compare to the woman who held Ryan’s heart. Arwen Quinn, heiress of prestigious Quinn family, realized too late that no matter what she did, she would never win Ryan’s love. The future that awaited her was a life trapped in endless misery of a loveless marriage. So, decisively, she ends their relationship and walks away. What she didn’t expect was that in breaking free from Ryan, she had opened the door for Aiden to enter her life — a chance that he had been waiting for. Aiden Winslow, an enigmatic CEO isn’t just mysterious —he is determined, and won’t allow to take Arwen away from him again. ____ Excerpt: Aiden narrowed his eyes, “Are you sure about this?” “If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t have asked,” Arwen replied coolly. “Stop dawdling. If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept? If yes, we’ll get the certificates now.” “On one condition,” he said. “I don’t do contract marriages. The woman I marry will be the woman I share my bed with. If you agree, then we’ll—” “Not a problem. Let’s go,” Arwen said without letting him finish, pulling him into the Civil Marriage Bureau.

She makes me feel hate, anger, desire, lust and something even more dangerous – love. ***** Amelia (Amy) Shawls, the legitimate and perfect princess of real estate mogul, and serving senator, Gregory Shawls, had it all –wealth, beauty, brain and a fiance who doted on her. But amidst her plenty admirers and few haters, were her vile stepmother and her envious stepsister, who sought to destroy her and take away her inheritance. Amelia's seemingly perfect life took a dark and scary turn on the eve before her celebrity marriage, when she gets a text message from her fiance, Jerry, asking her to meet him up at their favourite restaurant. On her way, Amelia is kidnapped and taken to an unknown location where she narrowly escapes her abductors only to end up crashing into a river. When Amelia finally regained consciousness a week later, she discovered that her life and everything she ever loved and worked for had been stolen from her by those who claimed to love her. Vengeful, she strikes a deal with the handsome but vicious devil, who rescued her from the jaws of death. ----- Meet Blaze Anderson, the charming but ruthless CEO of the Andex group. His heart is as cold as ice and his mere name caves terror in the heart of people. Blaze harboured a deep resentment against Amelia's entire family and would stop at nothing to see all of them, including Amelia destroyed. What would happen when the line between deep hatred and passion slowly thins out? Would Amelia ever consent to love after learning the bitter truth behind Blaze's assistance?

Their marriage is a deal without foundation of love. "Hey! Don't forget the agreement we made, it's just a fake marriage!" She stopped him and said nastily. "Of course I know, but our marriage certificate is real, isn't it?" He chuckled mischievously. He is not only the CEO of the consortium but also has a relationship with the mafia. He looks mysterious, aloof, and unapproachable, but actually, he is devious, tsundere, and narcissistic! She thought he was a gentleman, but after getting married, she realized that he was definitely a complete beast!

[loveaftermarriage, powercouple, sweetlove] On her wedding day, she broke up with a scumbag and impulsively married a stranger on the spot. She had planned to divorce him the next day, but unexpectedly, they began cohabiting. Despite his aloof appearance, he was actually considerate and clingy. He always cared for her and protected her from harm and bullies. Later, as she stared thoughtfully at the financial magazine, a revelation struck her: Why did the tycoon on the cover look so much like her husband? Moreover, he claimed they were childhood sweethearts, but why did she have no memory of it?

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man. Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind? Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake. Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era. And the madness.

At her wedding banquet, a man claiming to be Selina's lover stormed in, brandishing so-called intimate photos and causing chaos. Selina immediately saw through this as a scheme orchestrated by her half-sister, Natalia. However, Selina's fiancé, Ryan, not only refused to believe her but also went out of his way to defend Natalia. It turned out that Ryan and Natalia had already developed feelings for each other in secret. Everyone—Selina's father, stepmother, and Ryan's parents—knew about their affair, except for Selina, who was left in the dark. Taking advantage of the situation, Selina's father suggested swapping brides, proposing that Natalia replace Selina and complete the wedding. Ryan's family not only didn’t object but wholeheartedly supported the idea. That was the moment Selina finally realized the cruel truth: her family and Ryan's family were nothing but wolves in sheep’s clothing! "Cancel the engagement? Fine. But let it be clear—I’m the one rejecting you, you two-timing, spineless excuse for a man!" Selina declared with unshakable confidence. Her gaze then swept across the room, landing on an elegant and distinguished man. She vaguely remembered him as Ryan’s younger uncle. Walking over, she boldly asked, "Sir, how about getting married?" The man raised an eyebrow, finding her audacity intriguing. "It would be my honor, madam," he replied. ...

"They say every family has its secrets, but mine just married into the mafia." I didn’t ask for this life—didn’t ask for the luxurious cage, the whispered threats, or the blood-soaked power plays that come with the Stathoulis name. All I wanted was to finish my film degree and live on my own terms. But when my mother got engaged to Peter Stathoulis, a retired don of the Greek mafia, my world completely turned upside down. Now, I’m stuck in their large mansion, caught between family loyalty and a world I could barely understand. And then there’s him—Andrea Stathoulis. Peter Stahoulis son and the ruthless heir, commanding, intimidating. He’s everything I’ve been warned to stay away from, yet I can’t just seem to escape his shadow… or his piercing gaze. But the deeper I dig into the secrets of this family, the more dangerous it becomes. A betrayal I never saw coming, a kidnapping that leaves me powerless. And Andrea —possessive, infuriating, and un​for​tu​nate​ly the only one who can save me. I’m not even sure what scares me more—the enemies circling closer, or the man I might be falling for.

Forced to partner up on a school project, Maya and Eddie clash, connect, and challenge each other in ways they never imagined. Behind Eddie’s sharp wit and guarded exterior lies a secret life that threatens to upend everything Maya thought she knew about him—and herself. As jealousy, secrets, and old flames ignite a battle of hearts, Maya must decide: is taming the nerd really worth it, or is Eddie the one taming her? 10 Steps to Tame the Nerd is a heartfelt enemies-to-lovers story about self-worth, redemption, and the unexpected power of love to change everything.

With this, your safety is practically guaranteed. Step 4: Relax and let the Awakener handle the world’s chaos. You’re now free to enjoy your easy, drama-free life. (Well, mostly.) --- P.S. 1.
