"No, you ain't perfect but you worth it."

They say money change you. It don't. It just show you who you already was. I built an empire. Black Pyramid went global. Billionaire status, international deals, respect in rooms I used to only see on TV. I got power, influence, control... and still lost the one thing that ever really mattered to me. My family. Summer not my wife anymore. She my assistant now. My business partner. The woman I still love. The woman I hurt the most. Seeing her every day is a blessing and a punishment. I get to breathe the same air as her, hear her voice, watch her walk past my office like she never once belonged to me. I gotta sit with the fact that I broke us. I don't get to rush healing. I don't get to demand forgiveness. I gotta earn it. Our kids watching everything. They feel the tension. They feel the love that still there. They feel the distance too. And they deserve better than a father who chose ego over peace. This time, I ain't choosing money over family. I already seen how that end. Black Pyramid getting bigger, and with that come more danger, more snakes, more threats to everything I built. Business ain't just business no more. It's war. And one wrong move could take me away from my kids forever. So now I gotta decide who I really am. A man who hides behind success... or a father who stands in his truth. A husband who made mistakes... or a man strong enough to change. Family Over ain't about perfection. It's about redemption. It's about showing up when it's hard. It's about loving without control. Protecting without ego. Choosing home even when your pride telling you to run. I chose money before. I paid for it. This time... It's Family Over everything.

Kaylani has the perfect life everyone else wants-fiancée, career, parents approval. Azariah has the freedom Kaylani secretly craves. When a night at Club Mirage forces their worlds to collide, desire sparks, lies unravel, and Kaylani must choose: the life she was given... or the life she actually wants.

Matteo Russo does not marry for love. He marries for legacy, stability, and obligation-to his name, his family, and the old-world rules he was raised to obey. Camille Rhodes does not marry for security. She marries for access, capital, and time-to build something of her own without interference. Their agreement is simple, deliberate, and written in ink. Nothing more is promised. Their marriage is pristine on paper and distant behind closed doors. Separate lives. Separate ambitions. Public perfection. Private restraint. As Camille builds her company and Matteo fortifies his empire, they learn each other in silences, in proximity, in the spaces where rules blur but aren't yet broken. What was meant to be temporary begins to feel... complicated. When the contract nears its end, everything they've avoided must be confronted. Because once the ink dries and the terms expire, they are no longer bound by obligation-only by choice. And some decisions are far more dangerous when they're freely made.

Riani, feeling eyes on her Iooked over seeing Kiari staring at her. "Why are you staring." Riani chuckled playing in Kiaris hair. "You're just beautiful." He shrugs still not looking away. "Oh for real." She asked breaking out into a smile and he hummed in response. Riani stares back into Kiari's low redish eyes before smiling and pecking his lips. He grabbed her neck kissing her back, then backing away and running his tongue across his bottom lip as he stared at her some more. "I love you, Riani." He finally got it off his chest. Something that he has been waiting to tell her for the longest.
