The Billionaire's Dilemma: where love and rivalry entwined

Freya Davis is the type of woman who bites back. A sharp-tongued journalist with a caffeine addiction, and a hunger for the truth. She isn’t the kind of woman who gets tangled up with billionaires—especially not ones who wake her up in silk sheets, smirking like they own the city. Arnold Connor is the definition of dangerous: Insanely rich, perfectly hot, and annoyingly used to getting what he wants—except her. Their first meeting? A disaster. She was half-dressed and hungover in his suite. He called her “slut” playfully. And she nearly threw a lamp at his face. Romance wasn’t on the menu. But when their paths keep colliding in boardrooms, headlines, and late nights filled with secrets, what starts as antagonism turns into something else. Something real. Something raw. As their connection deepens, so does the web around them. Unknown to Freya, she’s being manipulated by Gregory Hills—a powerful figure with secrets of his own, including a blood tie to Arnold. Gregory uses Freya to spy on Arnold under the guise of a corruption exposé. But the deeper she gets, the more she realizes she’s been played. Meanwhile, Ariel Sawyer, a rich socialite obsessed with marrying Arnold, fakes a pregnancy to trap him. Gregory also kidnaps Freya, nearly killing her. In a desperate move to shield Freya, Arnold fakes a marriage to Ariel, sacrificing his own happiness. Freya becomes both a pawn and a threat in a game she never agreed to play. Now, the man she’s falling for is forced to marry someone else to protect her, and Freya is forced to choose: run, expose everything, or become the fire that burns the whole kingdom down. Because Gregory isn’t finished. And the next move in this deadly game? Is hers.

Return of The Conqueror [ System ]

Lizandra was transported to a Realm, having to survive on her own in a forest full of monsters, going through challenges that had made her who she is now, a Universe filled with God-like Beings. She had done everything she could to fight back, made a place for herself and even had a family once. But one decision changed her life…..her own decision to return to Earth, to go back to the people she had once called family all those eons ago…. Fate had different plans though, the world she knew has changed a lot. Monsters roamed around with Dungeons breaks swallowing whole cities. Humans had obtained the power from [System] to fight them back but, for how long will it go on.  This is the story of Lizandra, a woman who came back to her world after eons. Only to find it turned upside down. She, a Conqueror of the Realms, was back and there were forces around her that were creating chaos. There are beings that she will have to face, situations that will need her to be ruthless, things that will test her mind. Once again….facing the God-like Beings but this time, it would be different. ------------------------------------------------------ MC - Overpowered, Cunning, Villainous, Ruthless, Caring. There is romance, but only behind the scenes, for now. There is a system, but not for the MC. At least in the early chapters. It will be there once certain conditions are met. There is Multiverse, Invasion, a bit of Gore and lots of Destruction.  There will be a Multiversal ranking and a bunch of other stuff later on in the story (Keep Reading To Find Out). The story picks pace after first 10 chapters ------------------------------------------------------ Excerpt* Looking at the beams and spells raining on us. I wanted to end all of this with one single spell. Every person on the battleship and on the battlefield had a soul, there was nothing in this universe that could survive without having a soul. The soul was the most important thing connecting a being to reality. So I decided to use one of my most lethal but non destructive spells, The Soul Disintegration spell "Starfire Flux". This spell disintegrates the soul from within and doesn't leave anything behind except for dead bodies, burning every part of the soul with the heat of a supernova. Making the target of this spell wish for instant death rather than the horrifying pain. "Decrusto, Una scar" I let out a short whisper as a magic circle formed above us, covering the entire battleship and the field. A magic circle filled with bright runes, blinding everyone except the three of us.  A few seconds passed as the light died down, bodies fell to the ground where they were standing. All the Invaders had died, I didn't doubt that my spell would not work on them because I had used this same spell to kill a dragon before. A dragon's soul was a lot stronger than the soul of a human, so there was no chance for them to survive this. The only thing that remained was the eerie humming of the battleship as it stayed in the sky. ------------------------------------------------------ Author's Note - Don't just read the synopsis and leave thinking that it might be boring. Just try reading the first few chapters. There may be some things unexplained but later on everything will get cleared out (I’m keeping things mysterious). Chapter Schedule - One or Two chapters a Day.  Timing - Not fixed, but the chapters will be uploaded as soon as they are done writing. Word Count - 2000 to 3000 words per chapter.

MATED TO THE SECRET ALPHA

Devastated by the death of her destined mate and her family, Reana refused to choose another mate for three years. But with the council breathing down her neck, she had no other choice but to consider her options: Beta Ryan, the one who was chosen by the pack to become her second chance mate. But to everyone's surprise, she chose a servant, Ryder. The pack members and the council were livid. How could they bow to a servant turned Alpha? It was already enough that their Black Moon Pack was magnanimous to strays – in the past, giving them a home and work to help their living conditions, but now, one of such people would become their Alpha? Impossible! No way! What if Ryder was a spy? An enemy in disguise? Meanwhile, Ryder, the servant, was more than that. He was the feared and revered Alpha Snow of the Southern Islands - the dared-devil who was at war with the moon goddess for three lifetimes, just for Reana. And this lifetime, he was going all out, laying all his cards down. Who cares what he has to become just to claim his woman? Since Reana would not marry an Alpha from other packs, yet, was destined to become a Luna, then joining her pack as a 'pitiful' servant was his best bet. *** Reana's heart skipped a beat. There was something about the way Ryder said 'My Luna' that sent a shiver down her spine. The possessive undertone was unmistakable, and for a moment, Reana felt a flutter in her chest. She looked away, trying to compose herself. Perhaps, he didn't mean it that way, after all, he was the first to call her that. It was either 'Luna Reana' or plainly 'Luna.' With this conclusion, she turned back to him, her face cold and indifferent as usual, intending to respond. "You're my cho—" She stopped herself, her gaze drifting to the smudge of blood on his cheek. She didn't like the stain; it marred his handsome face like a drop of red ink on a white ceremonial dress. Without thinking, Reana reached out to clean the blood. As her hand made contact with his warm skin, a jolt of electricity coursed through her. Startled and about to withdraw her hand, Ryder suddenly leaned into her touch. Reana's heart skipped another beat. Ryder's eyes locked onto hers, his gaze burning with intensity. "Does My Luna find me worthy to become her chosen mate?" he asked, his voice low and husky. "I think I have good qualities. I don't have a mate, nor have I ever touched any woman. I'm still a virgin…" *** Please, check the review and character profile first, then prologue chapter before you dive into the story. It's very, very important. More tags~ #Rebirth #Obsession

Things He Never Says

A single sentence shattered her world: “Not worthy of pride.” Those words echoed in her mind, leaving her feeling like a ghost, drifting through life without purpose. She retreated into the shadows, her small room becoming a sanctuary of silence, where the outside world felt like a distant dream. Days blurred together, each one a reminder of her isolation. But then came the soft knock at her door, a gentle interruption to her solitude. A delivery boy named Kaito, with his quirky sticky notes and warm smile, brought a spark of light into her darkness. “If you like sweets, I’ll bring melon bread tomorrow,” he wrote, his words wrapping around her heart like a comforting embrace. His kindness was a lifeline, a reminder that she was seen, even when she felt invisible. Each note was a small treasure, igniting a flicker of hope within her. Why did he care? His presence stirred something deep inside her, a longing for connection she thought she had lost forever. When her money ran out and she felt the weight of despair, Kaito didn’t turn away. Instead, he offered her a chance—a job at his grandmother’s bakery. The thought of stepping outside filled her with both fear and excitement. The world that once felt so daunting began to shimmer with possibility. As she took that first step into the sunlight, her heart raced. Kaito’s gaze met hers, and in that moment, she felt a spark of recognition, as if they were two souls intertwined by fate. Memories of laughter and warmth flooded back, whispering of a past she had buried deep. Who are you? she wondered, her heart swelling with a mix of fear and hope. With each passing day, the walls around her heart began to crumble, and the secrets of their shared history beckoned her to explore. Would she find the courage to embrace this connection, to uncover the love that had been waiting for her all along?

Rejected and Pregnant: Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince

"A Rejected Omega, A Dark Alpha Prince and their twisted dangerous fate." Amelie Conley, the eldest daughter of a revered Alpha family, was once expected to carry on her family’s proud legacy. However, when she turned sixteen, she failed to awaken her wolf, which made her earn the scornful title—the Curse of the Conley Family. At eighteen, she found her destined mate and carried his child, believing she had finally been given a chance at happiness. But when she rushed to share the news, she found him in a compromising position with her younger sister, Flora. Betrayal cut deeper than any wound, but the final blow came when he rejected her without hesitation, declaring Flora as his true mate. Shunned and heartbroken, Amelie made the painful decision to leave her pack for the sake of her unborn child. But just as she tried to escape, she was ambushed—hunted down like prey. Desperate to protect herself and the life growing inside her, Amelie fled to save herself and her unborn child, only to collapse into the arms of an enigmatic stranger—Gabriel Sinclair. Gabriel was no ordinary man. He was the Alpha Prince, a name feared across the nation. For twelve long years, he had scoured the lands for his mate, only to find nothing. He had convinced himself that the Moon Goddess despised him, just as his own mother had. But the moment he laid eyes on Amelie, everything changed. "You were marked, weren't you?" His voice dropped, edged with something dangerously close to possession as his gaze met hers, demanding the truth.  The question left Amelie in a dilemma. She didn't wish to tell him the truth. "I am not an ordinary wolf, Amelie. Who the fuck marked you before me?" Gabriel voiced in a possessive yet intimidating tone.  Amelie didn’t know that the man, who saved her was none other than the infamous Dark Tyrant—the Alpha Prince, Gabriel Sinclair, whose intentions were still unknown to her. ~~~~ **The Story is a pure fiction.
