Shadows of the White Moonlight

Synopsis of Shadows of the White Moonlight : In the dazzling city of Shanghai, where wealth and power collide, Lu Yan, the cold and aloof heir to the Lu Corporation, is forced into a contract marriage with Qin Lan, a woman from a modest background burdened by her family's financial struggles. For Lu Yan, the marriage is purely a business arrangement to secure his position as CEO, but for Qin Lan, it is a desperate act to save her ailing father. However, Qin Lan is walking into a marriage built on shadows. Lu Yan’s heart still belongs to his first love, Ji Yi, the glamorous and seemingly perfect woman who left him years ago to chase her own ambitions. To Lu Yan, no woman could ever replace Ji Yi—Qin Lan is merely a “substitute” bride to meet his family’s expectations. The emotional distance between them is palpable, with Lu Yan treating Qin Lan as nothing more than a tool for convenience. Yet as fate would have it, Ji Yi reappears in Lu Yan’s life, seeking to reclaim her place in his heart and his world. Her return stirs up old emotions in Lu Yan, throwing him into inner turmoil. Blinded by his lingering feelings for Ji Yi, Lu Yan continues to overlook the woman standing right beside him—Qin Lan, whose quiet resilience and unspoken love for him are beginning to grow stronger by the day. But Qin Lan isn’t a woman who easily succumbs to the pain of unrequited love. Determined to protect her dignity and keep her heart intact, she distances herself from Lu Yan, though her feelings for him grow deeper with each passing day. She knows she’s nothing but a substitute in his eyes, but she cannot stop her heart from yearning for him. As the story unfolds , readers are immersed in vivid and emotionally charged scenes that paint a picture of Shanghai’s elite society, filled with grand events, lavish business deals, and the tangled webs of love and betrayal. The novel explores Qin Lan’s quiet strength, as she navigates the coldness of her husband’s heart while slowly becoming indispensable to him in ways neither of them expected. When the truth about Ji Yi’s departure years ago comes to light—revealing her calculating motives and hidden betrayals—Lu Yan is faced with the painful realization that the perfect image of his "white moonlight" was nothing more than an illusion. It is only then that he begins to see Qin Lan for who she truly is: a woman of incredible strength, compassion, and quiet beauty who has stood by him without asking for anything in return. Torn between the shadow of his past and the warmth of his present, Lu Yan’s emotional journey is one of discovery, loss, and redemption. But will it be too late for him to win Qin Lan’s heart after treating her as a mere substitute for so long? As their marriage teeters on the edge of collapse, dramatic twists and heart-wrenching confrontations lead to a final, emotional showdown. In the end, it will take more than grand gestures to heal the wounds between them—Lu Yan must face his own insecurities, while Qin Lan must decide if she can trust her heart to a man who once made her feel invisible. Through elaborate flashbacks, richly detailed settings, and complex character development, Shadows of the White Moonlight tells the story of two people bound by a contract but separated by secrets, misunderstandings, and the ghost of first love. Will they find the courage to build a love that’s real, or will they be forever haunted by the shadows of the past? This novel will take readers on an emotional rollercoaster, packed with suspense, passion, betrayal, and, ultimately, a hard-earned love that transcends the shadows of “white moonlight.”

A deep husky voice echoed from her back and she almost had a heart attack. Where did he come from? As a simple reflex, Gwendolyn turned around and her eyes almost popped out. Here was Duane shirtless and only on jeans. Her eyes caught the trail of sweat that traveled into the prominent V of his abdomen and she gulped. This was sex walking in daylight. "Like what you see?" He snapped her from her thoughts. Gwen glared at him yet went ahead to ask, "H-how did you hear that question? I need to know because I'm sure as hell that you were distracted as I was. Hence, there was no way on earth you could have heard that," Duane chuckled, the kind that sent tremors down her body, "That's your mistake honey, I was listening in class," was his reply as he leaned against the wall, coming too close for her liking. He was invading her senses, his presence was making it too hard to concentrate, "It seems you need to be spanked, you weren't listening in class," He said suggestively. Gwendolyn went red in the face but she would not be fooled by his flirting, which was why she said to him boldly, "I know what you are?" "What I am?" he was clearly amused, "Then tell me then, what do you think I am?" "A vampire,"

NIGHTS OF HALLOW

~•No Escape•~ "Are you running away from me, my sweet girl" spoke a voice in the hallway that made her stop in her tracks. The hallway had turned dark with only the wall lamps that burned brightly casting the shadow of the man on the floor as he slowly emerged from the other end. "What are you doing here, your majesty," She said and bowed immediately as she saw him approach her with slow but steady steps. "You haven't answered me, sweet" The man said with a sweet smile that made her wary and he heard the way her heart skipped a beat. He stood before her and used his index finger to raise her chin. He tilted his head as he gazed into her green eyes that looked back at him with fear. He took a step forward closing the distance between them and his eyes narrowed when she took a step back, but that didn't stop him from cornering her. "Did you think you can escape from me?" He continued to question and she didn't miss the mockery behind his words. "I…I" she felt her words tied to her tongue because of the man's daunting aura. She felt him trace her forehead with his finger down to her jaw. He continued moving his hand down to her neck and to the top of her swell and her thudding heart hitched when his hand continued to stay there. "Did you think you can escape from me?" He bent towards her as he spoke. His breath fell on her neck which sent a jolt that traveled down her body. "I told you, you're tied to me and me to you" _______________________ Perdita Kartar was a winsome yet strange young lady.
