Hermione Wants An Older Man

Angel Johnson was a waitress struggling to make ends meet when an unexpected contract with Tryson Bliss, one of City Y's most powerful and ruthless billionaires, changed everything. Tryson needed a fiancée to appease his demanding family, and Angel, desperate for money and a way out of her humdrum life, agreed to play the part. What began as a calculated arrangement soon evolved into something neither of them expected—an intense and forbidden connection. But when Tryson's family uncovers Angel's true motives, they cast her out with venomous disdain. Humiliated and heartbroken, Angel's last hope is confronting Tryson. But instead of an apology or a chance at redemption, she finds herself shattered when he declares that he has chosen his first love, Riley, the woman he was preparing to marry. Devastated and with only her pride left, Angel walks away, determined to rebuild her life alone. Two months later, Angel is lost in the pulse of the music at a dark, crowded bar, seeking refuge in anonymity. A hand seizes her from behind, and her breath catches as she turns to face the man she can't forget—Tryson. His eyes, once cold and calculating, are now stormy with raw emotion, and he pulls her into his orbit, holding out the contract she once signed.  "We haven't finished our work, Angel. The contract says you have a year left to be my fiancée. Don't tell me you're planning on breaching it now." With no choice but to comply, Angel moves back into the house that once rejected her. But to her surprise, the family she once loathed now welcomes her with unexpected warmth and kindness. As she navigates this unsettling shift, Angel is left to wonder—what has changed, and why? What secrets do they hide that could alter everything she thought she knew about Tryson and his family? And as Angel's heart begins to thaw, she's confronted with the hardest question of all: Can she keep the secrets she's hidden from Tryson? And will Tryson fight for her love a second time, despite everything that has come between them?

“What the fuck are you talking about? The one time I do something good, it bites me in the ass.” Clara chuckled. “You and I both know why you saved that girl, and it had nothing to do with being good.” “What are you talking about? I found her dropping from yee high. I wanted to drive past, but she was in the street. What did you want me to do, run her over?” I shouted. “I wouldn’t put it past you.” Clara continued moving around the house, gathering stuff she really didn’t need to put away. “For fucks sakes Clara, what will I do with her?” “Take her back to the city with you.” “What? Are you crazy?” The woman was going mad in her old age. “I have a better idea. You have done your best for her. I will just drop her back on the road I found her in. Someone else can continue from where I stopped.” “Again! You and I know you will not do that.” “What the fuck, Clara! Why the hell do you keep saying that?” I said in exasperation. “Because she looks dangerously like your dead wife. That’s why you saved her, isn’t it?”

Naruto Uzumaki’s life takes a dramatic turn when he wakes up in the Soul Society, a realm beyond the living, after an unexplained event seemingly ends his existence in Konoha. Confused and disoriented, he discovers that the world he knew is now out of reach, his parents are gone, and the dreams he spent his entire life chasing—like becoming Hokage—no longer matter. Instead, he is faced with a new reality: becoming a Shinigami, a guardian of souls tasked with protecting the living world from dangerous hollows. As Naruto struggles to adapt to the rules and culture of the Soul Society, his fiery personality and rebellious spirit make him both an asset and a liability to his newfound allies. Along the way, he meets an eclectic group of Shinigami, some who see potential in him and others who view him as an outsider. His abilities as a ninja—chakra manipulation, shadow clones, and raw determination—make him a force to be reckoned with, but they also draw the attention of dangerous adversaries in this new world. Naruto begins to uncover secrets about the Soul Society’s leadership, its hidden ties to the living world, and a conspiracy that may connect his arrival to a catastrophic event threatening both realms. Torn between his loyalty to his old life and his evolving role as a Shinigami, Naruto must make difficult choices that challenge his ideals and force him to redefine what it means to protect those he loves. In the climactic final chapters, Naruto faces a devastating truth about his own death and the sacrifice he must make to ensure peace in both worlds. As he steps into his role as a Shinigami fully, he learns that being a hero is not about titles or recognition—it’s about selflessness, even when it means letting go of everything you once held dear.

Who wants to become president? The story is about how people can try to overthrow a dictator in a rather unusual, unconventional way. After all, any idea manifests itself at a certain and designated time. Ideas - whose time has come - have enormous power. People have known and used magic since time immemorial. All magical rituals are based on supernatural, immaterial forces, incomprehensible and therefore not yet recognized by science. Magical and paranormal phenomena and abilities have much in common, since they use forces and factors that cannot be explained scientifically. All living beings and people are not just material bodies. There is something in them other than matter, and therefore they are able to perceive what is beyond the physical world. Almost always, in order for something fresh, new and better to appear, the rotten old must be destroyed and burned. Fire is a symbol of change, transformation and rebirth. The element of Fire functions at the center of all things - everything came from it and everything will return to it.
