Emma Carter has spent her life chasing her dream of revolutionizing sustainable fashion. Daniel Reynolds, heir to a business empire, has everything money can buy, except the freedom to follow his heart. When their worlds collide, sparks fly, but so do complications. As ambition, family expectations, and betrayal threaten to tear them apart, Emma and Daniel must face a pivotal question: How much are they willing to sacrifice for love?
Emma Carter stood in the middle of the bustling Manhattan startup pitch fair, nervously adjusting the display of her booth. Around her, eager entrepreneurs showcased innovative tech gadgets, flashy apps, and solutions promising to revolutionize industries. Amid the chaos, her sustainable fashion brand, Haven, seemed painfully out of place.
Her pitch had gone well-or so she thought. The investors nodded politely, but their questions revealed skepticism: "How scalable is this? What's your five-year ROI projection?" They didn't understand her passion or the importance of ethical practices in the fashion industry.
As the fair wound down, Emma fought back the sting of rejection. She began packing her samples when a voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Leaving so soon?"
She turned to see a man leaning against a nearby booth. He was tall, impeccably dressed in a tailored navy suit that looked effortless but screamed wealth. His sharp blue eyes sparkled with curiosity, and the smirk playing on his lips was equal parts charm and arrogance.
"Excuse me?" Emma asked, tightening her grip on a garment bag.
"I saw your pitch," he said. "Impressive. But passion alone doesn't build empires."
Emma stiffened. "And what do you know about empires?"
"Quite a bit," he replied, extending a hand. "Daniel Reynolds. Venture capitalist."
Her breath hitched. She'd heard of the Reynolds dynasty-one of the wealthiest families in the country.
"I'm not looking for a bailout," she said sharply, refusing his handshake.
Daniel laughed, unfazed. "It's not a bailout. It's an opportunity." He handed her a sleek business card. "Meet me tomorrow. I think we can make something extraordinary together."
Emma hesitated, watching him walk away with an air of confidence that annoyed her as much as it intrigued her. Later that night, as she lay in bed scrolling through his email, her fingers hovered over the keyboard.
Against her instincts, she typed: Let's meet. I'm interested in hearing what you have to say.
For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
"There will be no falling in love, we will only act as a loving couple when we are in public, we will share a room to make it believable, but no intimacy, touching is off-limits. We'll only have sex once a month, and that's solely to produce an heir. You won't interfere in my business, and I won't interfere in yours. You will be my wife in every sense and you will not be involved with any other man," he said, arrogance seeping from every word. I watch his mouth move, I'm not ready to fall in love with any man, especially not one as arrogant and egoistic as him. I can handle acting as a loving couple, and as for intimacy once a month. I can agree to that just to satisfy my sexual cravings with no strings attached. "Where can I sign?" I asked since I had nothing to lose. *** Nadine's wedding dreams turned to nightmares when she caught her sister and fiancé cheating! With a secret recording, she's ready for revenge.

Allison fell in love with Ethan Iversen, the soon-to-be Alpha of the Moonlight Crown pack. She always wanted him to notice her. Meanwhile, Ethan was an arrogant Alpha who thought a weak Omega could not be his companion. Ethan's cousin, Ryan Iversen, who came back from abroad and was the actual heir of the pack, never tried to get the position nor did he show any interest in it.

"If you’re eager to see me, you’d better join the queue, darling."
