To make matters worse, he is broke and jobless, making her feel trapped in a surreal nightmare. Desperate for escape, Delilah demands a divorce, but the stranger—insisting he wants to stay married—thwarts every attempt. Frustration and confusion mount until Delilah hatches a new plan: she proposes they team up to con her next target, the elusive billionaire, Hunter Quinn.

Their forced proximity ignites an unexpected chemistry, leading to moments of vulnerability and genuine connection neither anticipated. Caught in a whirlwind of deception, passion, and power plays, Delilah grapples with their growing feelings. As their con deepens, she must confront the ultimate question: Can she open her heart to love and trust again? ****Exerpt**** Delilah’s eyes darted to the marriage certificate again, the official seal glaring back at her. Her fingers itched to tear it apart, to make this nightmare disappear. But deep down, she knew that wouldn’t change anything. “I don’t remember,” she whispered, more to herself than to him. “I don’t remember any of it.” Blake nodded as if he had expected this reaction. “That is expected. You had a lot to drink last night.” he fished out a phone from the back pocket of his trousers, opened it. “Here, this is us celebrating, after we got married last night,” he said, showing her a picture. Delilah’s breath caught in her throat as she stared at the photo. It was indeed her. “How?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I don’t remember any of this.” “It was a wild night,” he said softly. Perhaps she had married Blake because he was wealthy. That would be the only logical reason for her to make such a blunder. There was hope, she thought, as she clung to the possibility of salvaging something from this disaster. Turning to him, she forced a smile, “Is this your house? Are we in your house?” She asked, looking around the bedroom. Blake shook his head, “No. This is a hotel,” he said, and she nodded. “I see. It looks like quite an expensive hotel,” she observed, “What do you do for a living?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady as she searched his eyes for any hint of affluence. Blake hesitated, his confident demeanor faltering for the first time. He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m... in between jobs,” he stuttered, avoiding her gaze. Delilah’s heart sank, disappointment crashing over her like a wave. “In between jobs?” she echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. Blake seemed to sense her dismay. “I know it doesn’t sound great,” he said quickly, trying to reassure her. “But I’m working on a few things. I just need a little more time.” “You’re jobless,” she muttered to herself as reality sunk in. “How did you pay for this room? For the wedding bands?” She asked, and he winced. “I didn’t. You did,” he said, and she collapsed on the bed. (PS: Cover photo isn’t mine. Credit to the real owner)

Pleasure system: I alone own all the money and women

In my former life, I was a female healer, unaware of the true extent of my powers. My abilities caught the attention of an S-rank guild, and I was recruited with promises of prestige and respect. But instead of the honour I was promised, I was met with betrayal and cruelty. They saw me not as a person, but as a tool to be used and discarded. I endured unspeakable suffering—raped,abused, exploited, and left to die when they no longer had use for me. My life ended in despair, my potential snuffed out by those who saw only their own gain. But fate granted me a second chance. [Ding!] for enduring so much suffering until death, you have awakened the Pleasure system. You will be reincarnated into a new body, would you desire any changes? I stared at the system confused, with lack of time left I simply said "I want to have the memories of this life, so I can get my revenge for what they did to me" [System] Host will be reincarnated with the memories of their current life. I was reincarnated as a boy, this time gifted with the power to manipulate time and a Pleasure system. As my abilities awakened, so too did the memories of my past life. The pain, the humiliation, the injustice—it all came flooding back. This time, I vowed, things would be different. I would not be a victim again. I would rise above the cruelty of my past and claim the power and respect I was denied. Revenge burns within me, but I am patient. Before I confront those who wronged me, I will dismantle the system that allowed such atrocities to occur. The S-rank females who once saw me as nothing more than a plaything will learn the cost of their actions for now i am here to get my revenge. They will come to understand the weight of the suffering they inflicted on me, and they will pay for their sins. Yet, revenge is not my sole purpose. I will become the strongest, the richest, and the most influential figure in this world. I will amass power not just for vengeance, but to ensure that no one can ever take advantage of me. And as I ascend to the pinnacle of strength and wealth, I will claim what was once denied to me: control, respect, money and the loyalty of those who once sought to destroy me. This is my story of redemption, power, and retribution. The boy with time powers will rewrite the narrative of his life, turning tragedy into triumph.
