After chasing Zander Hawthorne for 5 years, I finally realized it was pointless. I gave up on him and got together with Lucian Everhart, who adored me. Lucian lit up the entire city with fireworks and bought an island to propose to me. But just before our wedding, he disappeared. When I found him, I overheard him sneering to someone, "I only pursued Claire Whitmore to spite Zander Hawthorne. Once I got her, it felt meaningless." "But I couldn't let it go, so I decided to ditch the wedding to humiliate her. Isn't that fun?" So, I called off the wedding before he could, making him the laughingstock of the entire city. Word on the street was that the ever-proud Lucian Everhart scoured every corner of the city, but his runaway bride was nowhere to be found.

After a car accident, Vera wakes up believing she's the villainess from a tragic romance novel-and that her loving husband is secretly in love with another woman. To escape her "doomed ending," she plans a quiet divorce... until the truth about her memories changes everything.

Ethiriel was in love with her husband of three years but she never will get the same in return when their marriage was only base on business and contract. Even though she loved him secretly even before they got married. Will he ever return the love she deserve or will it bury forever in her grave.

SUMMARY: Viota Univers, Empress of Hartwood, stands at the edge of Silverbloom Hill, her once passionate love for Emperor Lucian Hartwood shattered beyond repair. For years, she devoted herself to him, enduring his cold indifference, his cruel words, and his unwavering faith in Irene Whitlock. Her love was obsessive, all-consuming, but it was never enough. The final blow came when Lucian accused her family of treason and sentenced them to death. He didn't listen to her pleas, didn't care for her tears-he had already given his heart to another. Alone, broken, and betrayed, Viota whispers her final words: "If there is another life, I will never love you again." And with that, she steps off the cliff, embracing the darkness. But the gods have been watching. A celestial force takes pity on her, granting her a second chance. She awakens five years in the past-before her engagement, before her downfall. This time, she vows that she will never love Lucian Hartwood again. ( If my story matches any other than I don't know because I felt like writing this story. This story may have a similar concept but I have taken the idea to write this story after reading many stories. So I have not copied my favourite novel is "The abandoned empress" and this story is similar to that)

Now on Amazon/KU and paperback. He was silent.
My life was full of whispers, insidious and ugly, convincing me that I wasn't enough. When Dillon came into my life, he earned my trust and convinced me those whispers were all lies. He gave me a glimpse into a world where I could be happy and build a family based on unconditional love and zero expectations. Except maybe one. When the moment comes for Dillon to speak up and defend me, he doesn't say a word...and reality comes crashing down. He's not the man I thought he was, but I'm not the same girl he fell in love with either. 

I'm stronger now. I know I deserve better, and when I walk away...

He'll be the one picking up the pieces.

** "Maximilian?" I blink at her silently. She just called my name. By my name. Instead of feeling repulsed and detested by that sound I instead can't feel anything anymore. All I can see is her. My breath stops for a moment again. Just like back in the tent. "Yes it's me." I say, quickly looking away from her side. "Why are you here?" She asks me coldly taking my hand away from her cheek. She then sits up straight in the sofa, far from me. I silently drop my hand back to my lap. I kind of felt disappointed. "Why can't I be here? Can't a husband visit his wife whenever he wants?" She shakes her head. "You're not like other husbands. And I'm not like other wives. You're a husband that's still hung up on their first love. And I'm a wife that wants nothing to do with you." She says with her tired eyes, after having slept only for 2 hours. _____________________________ Maximillian, the Emperor of the Kaisenarch Empire, who still love his first love. Elizabeth, the Empress that only wanted her husbands love She had taken years to realize, that maybe her marriage was always doomed, from the beginning. And her feelings will never be reciprocated. She falls first, he falls harder trope. ______________________________ This is a story I wanted to make from "A stepmother's marchen" or "The fantasy of a stepmother". With the characters Maximillian and Elizabeth. I so badly wanted to see their relationship Develop. None of this is my own
