!WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! "What's that noise?" She hears Melanie say. She hears the sound of a motorcycle making its way down the street. Rose stands up and looks outside, smiling inwardly to see that Jared has come to take her away from this place. "Rose, come sit down," she hears her father call. Rose ignores him and goes outside while the others follow behind her. "Where are you going?" Her mother asks, watching in disbelief as she walks towards the motorcycle with the tattooed rider, waiting patiently for Rose to come with him. "As far as this motorcycle will take me," she calls to everyone as she gets on. ~ Rose felt like life has lost its sizzle. That excitement she felt years ago has dwindled slowly until she eventually didn't feel much. Despite having a boyfriend who loves her very much, she couldn't help but feel so... Bored. When she meets Jared, he finds her annoyingly sassy. He practically hates her after one time of speaking to her. He's disgusted by her whole demeanor. But still, somehow, he was drawn to her in an animalistic way. She seems like such a goody two shoes to him and it makes him sick to his stomach. He had a strong distaste for her but he couldn't deny how much he wanted her. He wants to take everything she has to offer. He wants to completely destroy everything in her life. And his vow is to ruin her.

He was her safe place. Until he became her reason to run. Mateo and Lucia grew up as neighbors, best friends, and everything in between-inseparable since childhood. Everyone thought they were unbreakable. Everyone was wrong. One misunderstanding. One lie Mateo never questioned. And Lucia goes from being loved... to being ignored, humiliated, and emotionally crushed by the boy who once protected her. So she leaves. No explanations. No goodbyes. Just scars and a new identity. Years later, Lucia returns-harder, colder, and nothing like the girl Mateo broke. She doesn't need him. She doesn't miss him. And she definitely doesn't forgive him. But Mateo finally wants the truth. The problem? Lucia no longer wants him. Because some people don't get closure. They get consequences.

In the empire of Liang, everyone knew one thing: The Crown Prince loved another woman. So when General Shen's eldest daughter, Shen Li Hua, was chosen to become Crown Princess, the entire capital pitied her. A loveless marriage. A cold husband. A palace already occupied by the prince's beloved first love. Everyone waited for Shen Li Hua to cry, to compete, to desperately fight for a man who had never wanted her. But Shen Li Hua did none of those things. Elegant, intelligent, and impossibly difficult to read, the new Crown Princess treated the Crown Prince with perfect courtesy- and absolute indifference. While other women fought for affection, Shen Li Hua guarded only one thing: her dignity. And slowly, dangerously... the Crown Prince began noticing the wife he had once ignored. "You may have the title of Crown Princess," Xiao Jun said coldly on their wedding night, "but you will never have my love." The palace fell silent. Beneath the glow of crimson candles, Shen Li Hua calmly removed the heavy phoenix crown from her head and placed it aside. Then she finally looked at him. Her eyes were beautiful. Cold too. "That changes nothing," she said lightly. "I married Your Highness for the crown, not your affection." Xiao Jun's expression darkened. Before he could speak again, she continued calmly, "So you may keep your love for whoever wishes to beg for it." A pause. Then- "Fortunately, I do not." For the first time in years, the Crown Prince was left completely speechless.
