Some inherit fortune. Sierra inherited a warning.
When Sierra arrives at the windswept mansion left to her by a mother she barely knew, the only thing more haunting than the house is the cryptic note she left behind: "Don't trust the man in the east wing."
But Sierra has never run from ghosts. Not the ones in her blood. Not the ones whispering through the walls.
And certainly not from Kristen-the enigmatic, cold-eyed stranger haunting the halls like he belongs to the ruin itself. He knows more than he should. Stays hidden like a secret. Watches like he's remembering something she's forgotten.
Drawn to him despite every instinct screaming no, Sierra begins unraveling the twisted legacy buried beneath her family name-a legacy inked in obsession, betrayal, and a past neither of them can escape.
Because some doors were never meant to be opened.
And some love stories are written in blood.

Love Pattranite is just your average, overworked events manager trying to help her best friend, View, escape another dreadful blind date. The plan? Show up in her place, ruin the date, and get View off the hook easily. However, Love unknowingly crashes the wrong blind date. And the person sitting across from her, staring in shock, is none other than Milk Pansa company's icy, no-nonsense CEO. Love is mortified. Milk is amused. Meanwhile, Milk's grandfather is completely exhausted from Milk rejecting all the blind dates and has finally had enough. "Fine. You don't want a man? I'll give you a woman!" Unfortunately, Love's spectacular date-ruining skills only make things worse. Grandfather mistakes Love for Milk's actual date and, in an unexpected twist, decides: She's the one! Before Love can process what's happening, she's roped into a business marriage proposal-all because Milk needs to fend off further matchmaking attempts, and Love just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time (or the right place, depending on who you ask). What starts as a convenient (and completely fake) engagement soon turns Milk's meticulously organized life into absolute chaos. Love-clumsy, unpredictable, and absolutely unfiltered turns every formal event into an experience, every board meeting into a spectacle, and every attempt at faking romance into something way too real. The worst part? Milk doesn't mind at all. Inspired by Business Proposal Cover Photo Credits: @turn_word (saturn_)Complete
The Scent Beneath the Mask
Teetee is an Alpha-but he hates what that means. In a society where Alphas dominate and Omegas are often seen as tools for pleasure or power, Teetee lives in disguise. With the help of his family, he hides his true identity and passes as a Beta. Only his older brother, Thomas, knows the truth. Teetee surrounds himself with Omegas-his best friends Wave, Save, and Kong-not because he sees them as lesser, but because he wants to protect them. They don't know he's an Alpha. They just know he's kind, safe, scent-neutral. Harmless. Por, on the other hand, is a rare Enigma: neither Alpha nor Omega, unpredictable and biologically untouchable-until fate triggers something dormant. Cold, sharp, and brutally honest, Por doesn't trust easily. Especially not Omegas. Especially not anyone. That is, until the day he crashes into a quiet Beta in the university hallway. One whiff of peach-scented pheromones, and everything changes. Por knows that scent. He knows what it means. They're fated. But how can you find your fated partner when they're hiding who they really are? And how do you love someone when your past tells you not to trust anyone at all?Complete

As the heir to a powerful security empire, Caleb vowed to protect her from everything. Even from himself. Years later, Sierra is no longer a fragile girl hiding behind locked doors. She's brilliant, brave, and heartbreakingly off-limits. And Caleb? He's still the man who would kill for her... but never touch her. When Sierra's estranged father resurfaces-deadlier than ever-Caleb's iron control begins to fracture. Because protecting her now means dragging her closer, not pushing her away. And Sierra is done pretending she doesn't want more than safety. She wants *him*. But loving her could destroy everything. And this time, Caleb may not be able to walk away. ---Complete
