Alex hesitated, torn between the desire to approach her and the responsibilities of the evening. Yet, he couldn't deny the pull that urged him forward.
Finally, he excused himself from a conversation and made his way toward her, his heart pounding in anticipation. As he approached, she looked up, and their eyes locked-an electric current passing between them.
"Emma, right?" he said, a half-smile tugging at his lips.
She returned his smile, her eyes playful. "Mr. Knight? The man with the mysterious painting craving."
He chuckled, his gaze still fixed on her. "Guilty as charged. I couldn't get that painting out of my mind."
She arched an eyebrow, her voice teasing. "What a shame. You must really have wanted it."
His gaze dipped, tracing the lines of her body in that elegant dress. "Believe me, it wasn't just the painting."
In the fancy world of rich people, Emma Thompson feels stuck with her bossy family. She tries to get out and do her own thing. Then she meets Alexander Knight, a super rich guy who's always in charge. They meet and start a journey to find themselves, fall in love, and change.

False Bride [18+]
Formerly known as Not Royale enough .. Sarah Wayne has one rule: never mix business with feelings. At twenty-five, drowning in debt that isn't even hers, she's willing to do almost anything to keep herself afloat. Luckily, her job is simple. Be the perfect girlfriend. Smile for the cameras. Attend events. Play the role. No touching. No kissing. No complications. Then she receives an offer unlike any she's ever had before. Become the fake bride of a prince. The pay is enough to erase every debt hanging over her head, so saying no isn't really an option. What starts as a simple contract quickly turns into a nightmare of royal expectations, public scrutiny, and a dangerously handsome prince who seems determined to test every rule she's ever made. Christopher Knight, the infamous second prince of Gelin, has spent years avoiding responsibility. With a reputation as a playboy and no desire to settle down, marriage is the last thing he wants. But when his older brother abandons his duty to the crown, Christopher suddenly finds himself next in line for the throne-and under immense pressure to find the perfect future queen. His solution? A fake bride. He expects a business arrangement. What he doesn't expect is Sarah. She's stubborn, sharp-tongued, completely unimpressed by his title... and quickly becoming the one woman he can't stop thinking about. Now, Christopher must decide whether their marriage is just another performance- or the beginning of something real. After all, the most dangerous part of pretending to be in love is forgetting where the act ends.

Fire on Fire
"This is so wrong ..." Emma breathed out against his lips when he pinned her up against the wall. "Is it?" Alexander echoed, slipping his hands underneath her large sweater, grazing her lips. "She's my friend ..." Emma argued weakly, albeit unwilling to push him off. "Don't think about it." He merely replied, starting to nibble on her neck. As his lips nipped down on her sensitive skin, Emma let out a breathless moan and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, so that he could hook her legs around his torso, effectively seizing her in his arms. The walk to his bedroom was short, and before she could say anything, she found herself on his bed, him hovering over her. His every touch was inebriating, the way his lips knew exactly where to go in order for her to lose sight of her moral duties, the way his hands skillfully caressed every inch of her skin, as if savoring it in advance, was driving her insane. And when she met his fiery gaze, Emma knew she was doomed. She had no chance but to surrender to this devil that was tempting her, pushing her towards something that - she was well aware - would be difficult to give up on once set in motion.Complete

"Damn you Sarah! Answer me...did you ran away from me to be with your damn lover?" Sarah slapped him hard across the cheek, he gritted his teeth, his hold on her tightened further. He pulled her towards him and held her waist hard which caused sarah to wince. He whispered close to her face, his lips almost touching hers "If you ever try that again, I promise you...you wouldn't like the outcome of what I'll do" Sarah stopped... Did that have a trace of sexiness and seduction in that or was it just her imagination.

Why Me ✓ (FINAL EDITS)
I pushed back my glasses and enquired, "Hi, did you call me?" I saw him smirk a little and then averted my gaze to anywhere but him. "Yes, Ms. Findlay. I did call you. I wanted to ask; are you the one who is making these new designs? Giving them finishing touches?", he asked pointing to the paperwork on his table. I didn't know why, but my throat had gone dry. So, I just nodded. He got closer to me and instinctively, I took steps away from him. Soon, he had closed the slightly ajar door and I was trapped between him and the door. We were so close that I could feel his breath near my neck. Slowly, he whispered into my ear, "What did you think, I would have forgotten you, Emerson? Do you think this is all a game?" I gulped. That was enough to confirm that he had definitely recognized me. I fake frowned and stuttered while trying to find the doorknob, "I...uh...I...I don't understand what you are talking about.....I...I...I think I should go." I finally found the doorknob, opened the door and practically ran out but, not before hearing him say, "If this is a game, so be it.

A Challenge To An Arranged Marriage
"Ian? Please. Why are you not answering me?" Lisa shouted raising her voice to probably gain his attention. "You want to know the truth?" Ian replied shifting his head away from the painting to look directly at her, staring into her eyes. While he started taking small steps in her direction. "You really want to know why we are here." He asked again still moving forward. His voice was deep and hoarse and the way he was looking at her, made her take some steps back that was until her back hit the wall. Without saying anything he leaned forward placing both of his arms around her so that she was now trapped between him and the wall. He moved his face forward directly in front of her. Lisa could feel his hot breathe on her neck as he bent forward to place his mouth on her neck, placing a tender kiss there. Lisa took a large gulp of air trying to control the tingles, she was feeling down there. "I was jealous, Lisa," He breathed out in her ears placing yet another kiss just below her earlobe. "I was jealous when you took hold of Cole's hand. I was jealous when you let that piece of shit place his hands on you. I was jealous when you danced with him. I was jealous, Lisa, very jealous." He continued as he removed his mouth from her neck, leaning forward to stare directly into her eyes. "So let me tell you the truth. I am a very possessive man, Lisa and I don't share what's mine. And when it comes to you I certainly can't control myself." He concluded as he closed the gap and placed his lips on her.Complete
Married To My Bully
I felt as if someone had dropped a boulder on my fragile heart. He peppered kisses on her neck and she giggled in response. Right in front of my eyes. I clenched my fist. Their proximity suffocated me. I couldn't breathe. Jealousy and agony gave way to pure rage and without thinking, I jerked the woman out of his hold and pushed her away. "What the hell," she glared at me and I glared back at her before turning my gaze on Alex. "Who is she? And why is she here?" I asked him and could hear my voice shaking because of the enormous rage I was feeling in that moment. I wanted to kill him along with her. He scanned my expression for a moment and then flicked his gaze away as if I don't even exist. "Let's get you to my room," he was about to grab her hand when I grabbed his. I turned to face the woman and gave her a death glare, "Leave." "What," She flicked her gaze on Alex who looked as taken aback as her. I was overly tempted to pluck her eyes out for looking at him. "Eyes here. I am his wife and the lady of this house. And I want you gone. Leave," I gritted out. Completely forgotten that I was going to leave this house tonight. "Only in the paper. And I am the owner of this house," he hissed in my face in a warning tone and then looked at the woman. "Go to my room, Selena," he told her in a stern tone. He was annoyed not by her but by me. I could feel his temper rising, but it was nowhere near mine. My heart shattered in million pieces when he said that. A drop of tear rolled down my cheek as I saw the woman taking the stairs from my peripheral view. My eyes were fixed on Alex who had his jaw set and eyes glaring fire.Complete
