Simon Gudrair, son of a self- made billionaire, seems to make diamonds out of dust.  He is an up and coming tycoon that day lights as a lawyer and uses his night time hobbies to pad his pockets.  All is well that ends well...until it doesn't.  Simon finally bit off more than he can chew and put a target on his back.  
Unbeknownst of his fate being written out in form of a paycheck, he begins his negotiations for the largest contract of his life. Everything seems to be coming together: the money, the properties, and even the mysterious woman sent in to oversee his contracts.   But even at it's sweetest, life has a way of coming back for what it's owed, and when the house wants to even the score, few have survived to tell the tale.

The billionaires pawn by precious002798
20 parts Ongoing Mature
Lexi world has come crashing down. Her family's prestigious business empire, built over generations, is in shambles-wrecked by her father's reckless gambling and alcohol-fueled mistakes. On the verge of financial ruin, with creditors banging at their door, she is presented with an unimaginable offer from the enigmatic billionaire Julian Blackwood. Julian isn't just any man. He's one of the most powerful, ruthless figures in the business world, known for getting what he wants at any cost. His wealth and influence are limitless, and now, he's set his sights on Lexi. His proposal is as simple as it is shocking: spend one year as his lover, subm it to his every desire, bear his child, and he will save her family from financial devastation. Desperation forces Lexi to consider the unthinkable. If she agrees, it means plunging herself into Julian's world of luxury and excess, but also into a dangerous game of submission and control. What she doesn't expect is how intensely Julian will dominate not only her body, but her mind and heart as well. In his glittering penthouses and private jets, Lexi is drawn deeper into his twisted world, where pleasure and pain intertwine, and where she finds herself craving the very things she once feared. But Julian's wealth comes with more than just power. It brings danger. His empire is built on secrets, and as Lexi becomes more entangled in his life, she realizes that his obsession with her goes beyond lust. He wants to own her in every way. And though Lexi begins to surrender to his intoxicating touch, she starts to unravel the dark forces lurking behind his fortune. His enemies are watching, waiting for any sign of weakness, and Lexi may be the perfect target. As the lines between contract and real emotion blur, Lexi finds herself torn. He isn't just a billionaire offering her salvation, he is a man who will stop at nothing to possess her completely.

30 parts Complete Mature
Y/N, a young and talented artist, lives a life of vivid colors and quiet solitude, her days spent lost in canvases and her nights dreaming of a world beyond her own. When she's approached by a wealthy businessman, Simon Riley, who offers to commission her work, she thinks it's a chance to push her art to new heights. Simon is charming yet mysterious, and while his generous patronage seems like a dream, his enigmatic aura feels like a storm looming on the horizon. But Simon "Ghost" Riley is no mere businessman. Behind his tailored suits and polite demeanor lies one of the most powerful mafia bosses in the city, ruling an empire built on secrecy, fear, and shadows. For years, he's kept his personal life and his underworld reign separate, trusting no one and needing no one. But meeting Y/N stirs something he thought long buried-feelings that could make him vulnerable in a world where weakness is fatal. As Y/N delves deeper into her work for Simon, she begins to notice the cracks in his facade-the lingering looks, the hushed conversations, the shadows that follow him. Curiosity leads her to uncover the truth, placing her directly in the crossfire of his deadly world. Soon, she finds herself faced with an impossible choice: leave behind the life and love she's found with him or stay, risking everything for a man whose empire may crumble if his enemies discover the one person he truly cares for. *In a world where trust is scarce and love is a dangerous game, will Y/N and Simon's connection be their salvation or their undoing?*
