Two powerful mafia dynasties. One forced marriage. Zero choices. Elowen Devereaux was raised to believe that love is sacred - something chosen, not negotiated. Caelan Blackwood never believed in love at all. When their families decide to unite their empires through an arranged marriage, both of them become prisoners of a contract written in power, loyalty... and blood. They hate each other. They resist each other. They clash in every possible way. But danger has a way of blurring lines. As enemies close in and secrets surface, hatred slowly turns into obsession, tension into desire, and forced proximity into something far more dangerous - feelings. And when she is taken, he realizes too late: She is no longer just his wife by contract. She is his weakness. His addiction. His reason to burn the world. A dark mafia romance filled with passion, power struggles, intense dialogue, forbidden desire, and love born from chaos.

When Ana confronts her new neighbour after being kept up all night by his sex noises, she's mortified to discover he's none other than Freddie-the police officer who arrested her abusive ex-boyfriend last month. The pair interact only when necessary and do so with light-hearted insults and harmless pranks. But when a baby shows up on his doorstep with a note claiming to be his, Freddie suddenly needs his neighbour for more than just a casual flirt. They think their relationship is platonic, but when their attraction is no longer avoidable, they come up with one rule. Don't kiss. Everything else is up for grabs and if Ana can stick to that one rule, her heart will remain unbroken. She has no desire to fall in love and Freddie simply doesn't have time. They think it's the perfect agreement but when feelings intensify, it becomes clear their plan is failing. Secrets are unveiled. Hearts get broken. Love gets complicated.

"Treat my wound" he said, laying down on the cold floor of the maid's room in his mansion. "B...but it's too deep. I can't... you need to go to the hospital, sir" the maid replied, her lips trembling, tears pooling in her eyes. "Do it" he said calmly, no trace of pain on his face as he turned his back toward her, his skin carved with wounds. With shaking hands, she stepped closer, the first-aid kit clutched tightly. Tears slid down her cheeks as she began treating him. He lay there on the floor, careless of dignity, of blood, of the world, his eyes fixed on her.

To the world, he is a ruthless Alpha heir. In reality, he is an abused Omega hiding his nature with illegal suppressants that are slowly poisoning his blood.

The ending we kind of all wanted -- and knew we kind of needed, too. So I don't know about you, but I almost broke down sobbing after that final chapter in Sunrise on the Reaping. (You know, the ones with the accursed red gumdrops...) So to bring myself (and most likely other hunger games fans) some peace, I wrote this alternate ending for Haymitch and Lenore Dove. ‼️IF YOU FIND MY STORIES ON ANY OTHER SITE BESIDES WATTPAD, IT IS NOT ME. SITES LIKE TEENFIC.NET HAVE STOLEN MY STORIES AS THEY HAVE MANY MANY WATTPAD WRITERS AND MAY PUT MALWARE ON YOUR DEVICES. DO NOT SUPPORT IT. ANY WORK OF MINE YOU FIND ON A SITE BESIDES WATTPAD IS FAKE AND STOLEN.‼️ I do use parts of the actual book, but just to tie it up. ALL CHARACTER AND BOOK PARTS USED IN THIS FANFICTION ALL GO TO SUZANNE COLLINS (of course!). It's pretty short, and I think y'all may like it. The epilogue did bring some peace, admittedly, but this will probably bring more happiness, as well. I *cough* also wrote a song and will include the lyrics. I think it's called 'Haymitch, my love' right now, and is supposed to be sung by Lenore Dove (of course). One of the lyrics is pure as a dove, which references to her, but I realize also references to 'Pure as the Driven Snow'... that's cool. okay, enjoy :) ‼️contains pure joy, relief, love (no inappropriate love, just a relationship), and some kissing (but I'm not that detailed with it)‼️ THIS IS AN ALTERNATE ENDING! MEANING WE SHOULDN'T CARE WHAT EFFECT IT COULD/COULDN'T HAVE ON THE OTHER BOOKS. LET'S JUST SAY THIS IS AND ENDING FOR THIS BOOK. JUST SOMETHING HAPPY THAT COULD'VE HAPPENED. KEEP IT TO THIS BOOK. :)

In his former life, Sun Bohai was an omega who couldn't reproduce. Since society believed that an omega's only function was to reproduce, it was genuinely ironic. It was found that his hormones were the source of the issues. He suffered from PCOS, a condition that disrupts hormone balance. He was a highly rare case and couldn't be healed since PCOS was common among betas but rare among omegas. Because hormones were like a live source for omega, his health soon declined, and he passed away on a rainy day alone. He thought he had died, but instead, he woke up in the body of Luo Xiu, a ger in ancient china. Luo Xiu had just married over as a second wife and a stepmother. But before he even had the time to panic a system suddenly introduced himself. With no choice, he could only accept and move forward for both his and the children's survival. With the father absent, the paternal family ignorant, and Sun Bohai who was like an alien in ancient china how will they survive? Cover done by: @Veleon
