Faced with the agonizing truth, Lara stands at a crossroads. Will she keep fighting for a love that may never be hers, or will she finally find the strength to walk away? Will she finally allow herself to heal from the wounds of unrequited love or will she continue to confine herself within this loveless marriage, forever branded as Lucas Gabriel Dela Merced's Unwanted Wife? ••• DISCLAIMER: This story is written in English.

Is cheating always meant to be physical? What if he emotionally betrays you? But what do you call it when your husband shares his dreams, emotions, victories, and time with another woman... slowly forgets that you even exist? (Short story)

Ophelia thought she knew her husband. Two years later she realises she has been sleeping beside a stranger, a man she never really knew at all. Unravelling the truth breaks her heart and costs her marriage, but sometimes letting go is the only way to save yourself.

Two men. One filthy promise. No safe word strong enough. Lauryn Wolfe is stuck. Jobless. Heartbroken. Still picking up the pieces after her ex shattered her self-worth and ghosted like she never mattered. When Dallas Maddox, her childhood best friend, turned rock god, invites her to join him on Saints of Ruin on tour, it feels like a lifeline. A way out. A chance to start again. She never expected the heat. Not from Dallas, whose flirtation has always walked a razor's edge. And definitely not from Kye Ashford-Dallas's brooding, pierced, and possessive boyfriend. They don't just want her friendship. They want everything. Her submission. Her surrender. Her body kneeling between them and her heart spread wide open. But not everyone wants Lauryn on this tour. Not the obsessive ex-sub who once belonged to Kye. Not the fan whose fixation blurs the line between devotion and delusion. And definitely not the voice in Lauryn's head whispering that she'll never be enough. Caught in a storm of lust, jealousy, and the kind of love that burns too hot to survive-Lauryn must decide what she's willing to risk to belong to two men who don't play fair... They don't beg. They claim. And once you're theirs... You never leave the stage the same.
