Laid Plans

Chains Lifted: Her Second Act

DO ADD "Llaellen's Updates" BOOK IN YOUR LIBRARY TO GET THE LATEST UPDATES ABOUT MY PLANS FROM HERE ON OUT She was a well-made daughter - molding herself into whatever they needed her to be. A perfect doll. A flawless façade. She mastered every expression, every action, and played her role without fault, because this part of her life belonged to them. But not for long. There will come a time when she will break free. No longer will anyone dictate her path or define who she must become. She will be the sole director of her life. Yet, just as her carefully laid plans were slowly reaching their climax, her world began to turn upside down. One disruption after another—incidents she could never have foreseen—and new acquaintances who refused to stay away no matter how often she cut ties with them. Her life had always been difficult, but these unexpected twists thrust her into a roller-coaster ride she never asked for, even bringing a hesitation she had never imagined she’d feel with her plans. Like a caterpillar struggling to form its cocoon, she is fighting for her own transformation. But she knows that once she emerges, she will be a butterfly—free to soar higher than ever before. … “Your kindness? I don’t need it. What you offer? I don’t want it. And a piece of advice—be careful with your kindness. It might bring pain to those you wish to protect, rather than support.” She turned her back, leaving him standing there, watching her retreat into the distance. … "Because I was like her once—filled with guilt. Those were the words I needed to hear, the ones I gave up hoping for long ago." He looked at her, his gaze softening with sympathy. “And you don’t seem like someone who’s ready to free herself from that guilt.” “Someday, maybe. But not yet. Not just yet.” “When that time comes,” he asked gently. “Will you tell me first?” She paused, meeting his eyes before a faint smile touched her lips. “I suppose I can do that much.” … “Whatever I’ve been through, no matter how difficult, I’m proud of it. I’ll never feel ashamed of the things I’ve done to reach this point.” She cupped his cheek, her touch gentle but firm. “So don’t feel bad for me. Be proud of me. While you weren’t there, you were always on my mind. You gave me the strength to keep going. Remember that.” He leaned into her hand, his voice quiet. “Then tell me… tell me everything you’ve experienced.” 14 chapters a week... Published 1 minute apart...

The Wolf and His Prey

In a city where power is currency and betrayal is inevitable, Han Yeijin’s life was never meant to be her own. The daughter of a prominent minister, she was raised in a world of privilege—one that shattered the moment she fell into the hands of Kang Minjae. A man with too many secrets and no mercy, Minjae is the name whispered in backrooms and feared in boardrooms. Ruthless, untouchable, and always in control. Until her. Bound by circumstances neither of them chose, Yeijin becomes a pawn in a dangerous game, caught between the man who holds her chains and the echoes of a life she can no longer claim as her own. But in a world built on deception, even the most carefully laid plans can unravel. Because the most dangerous lies? Are the ones we tell ourselves. __________________________ She shouldn’t want this. She shouldn’t want him. His hands are rough, demanding, as they drag her forward. His mouth grazes the shell of her ear, breath warm, voice dark and full of pure possession. “Say it.” Minjae murmurs, his fingers threading into her hair, tilting her chin up to look at him. She refuses. Her lips part—only for a sharp gasp to escape when he presses her against the desk, trapping her between his body and the cold wood. “You were mine before you even knew it.” he breathes, dragging his lips down the curve of her throat. His teeth scrape her skin, a warning, a promise. She shivers. She hates him. She wants him. “Say it.” he demands again, voice rough, almost desperate now. Yeijin clenches her fists. But her body betrays her. “…I’m yours.” The groan that leaves him is pure sin. And then? Then he ruins her all over again.

But in one cruel stroke, the life she had meticulously built crumbled around her. Betrayed by the people she trusted most—her fiancé, her step-sister Lilian, and even her own family—Angela was cast aside like a forgotten memory. Desperate to mend her broken heart, Angela sets out on a path of rediscovery and vengeance. With the Christmas season looming as a backdrop to her turmoil, she finds herself planning the ultimate payback against those who sought to destroy her. But Angela’s journey takes a sharp twist when she crosses paths with Enzo Lorenzo—the enigmatic and feared mafia heir. Known for his cold, calculating mind and dangerous aura, Enzo is a man used to controlling every situation. But Angela’s fiery rebellion sparks an interest he can’t ignore, even as she unwittingly threatens to upend his carefully laid plans. In a world filled with lies, ambition, and hidden agendas, every character has their role to play: Lilian, the conniving step-sister who basks in Angela’s downfall; Brad, the traitorous fiancé now caught in his own web of deceit; Jonas, an FBI agent, a sharp eyed girl, who struggles to understand his sibling’s growing interest in Angela; and the Vaughn family, whose hypocritical attempts to restore their reputation add layers of tension. Amidst the glittering holiday season, Angela’s path crosses with old friends, bitter enemies, and unlikely allies as she claws her way back to the top. But in a game where everyone has something to lose, will her vengeance lead to redemption—or destruction? "Betrayed love" is a tale of betrayal, passion, and empowerment, weaving together love, danger, and the unyielding resolve of a woman who refuses to be broken.
