The day Eva Zapanta married Enzo Bautista, it wasn't love that bound them-it was a contract. The gown, the vows, the kiss... all pieces of a picture-perfect lie she never asked for.

To the world, he is her husband. To Eva, he is the stranger she wakes up beside, the man whose silence is heavier than any promise. And yet, somewhere in the stillness of their home, his quiet gestures start to feel like threads-binding her in ways she doesn't know how to name.

But when love is born from something forced, can it ever be pure? Or will it always taste faintly of surrender?

"How are you going to stay true to the vows you said at the wedding... when you weren't even the one who wrote them?"

Because some cages are built from gold... and some prisons are mistaken for love.All Rights Reserved

Traffic Me by Paxtynferd

Nailah If you had told me a year ago the hell I would go through because of Greed and Anger, I would have laughed in your face. Not because of the absurdity of it or the amount of time I would spend in said hell. But because he loved me. Or at least, I thought he did. I'm bent now. Used and bloody and fighting for my life. But it's not just me anymore. I'm fighting for her too. God help you all. Enzo I was born into a world of chaos and murder. I've always been at the top of the food chain and that is where I will stay. I'm cold and show no mercy to those who go against me. I never thought I had more than one side to myself. Until I saw her. Running through the forest, barefoot and bloody. Blonde hair trailing behind her like a dream. But she was running from a nightmare. And in that moment I decided that I would save her from it. And I would kill every person responsible for her pain and suffering. God help them all.

The Deal I Never Made by _valiencia_

"She never said yes. She never signed the deal. Yet, she woke up wearing his ring. Las Vegas was supposed to be her escape-a chance to chase dreams, not a trap. But one wrong sip, one blurred night, and she belongs to him-Emry Sebastian Binchi, the most powerful, untouchable man in the world. He calls it fate. She calls it a cage. But when power meets innocence, obsession meets resistance, and secrets begin to unravel... the truth is deadlier than any vow. Because in his world, nothing is accidental. Not even the marriage she never made."

Blood over roses by merehunter343

She was fire, but she didn't know it yet. He was darkness, and he never wanted the light. You don't belong here, Elara." He whispered, his voice low and dangerous, fingers gripping her chin. "Then let me go." She trembled, her eyes shining with unshed tears. His lips curved into a cruel smile. "Cara mia... you still don't understand. The moment I saw you, you became mine. And no one-no God, no man-can take you from m

"You looked at me like I was no one. That was your first mistake." Eva Mirova lives in pages-quiet, romantic, untouched by the world she writes about. But fate doesn't ask for permission. It delivers her straight into the line of sight of Ivan Volkov, a man who doesn't believe in chance... only ownership. He wasn't supposed to notice her. He was there for a deal. But one glance-one moment-and she became his next decision. Not for a night. Not for a taste. Forever. She doesn't know his name. He knows everything about her. She runs. He doesn't chase-he commands the world to close in around her. This isn't a love story. It's a dark vow wrapped in silk and sealed in blood. Because when Ivan wants something, he doesn't court it. He claims it. Marries it. Breaks it, if it resists. And Eva? She just became his bride... whether she says "I do" or not.

Bound By Love And Vows by theferntales

A marriage is a promise-a promise that, when spoken in the midst of love, feels unbreakable. The vows, the commitments, the future-they all seem inevitable when you're standing at the altar, looking into the eyes of the person you hope to spend the rest of your life with. But time, routine, and unresolved wounds can unravel even the most seemingly perfect bond. What happens when love turns into a trap? What happens when the commitment that was once a sanctuary now feels like a cage? Bound By Love and Vows is a story of two souls at war with themselves. Claire and Adam have lived in the same home, shared the same bed, but somewhere along the way, they lost the connection they once shared. Their marriages, once filled with promise, now feel like performances, like a series of roles they've been forced to play out without ever having the chance to ask if they're still the people they once were. When love becomes something you do, rather than something you feel, how do you keep going? What happens when you start wondering if the answer to your unhappiness lies in a completely different partner, in a completely different life? In a world where self-respect often gets lost in the sea of obligations and expectations, Claire and Adam are about to find out that sometimes, the change you're looking for isn't in another person, but in yourself.

The Barren Wife by bdot567

She was never meant to be his. When Adrian Eryx Vescari's first bride fled, he married Araxie Asteria instead-the woman no one expected, the one whispered about in hushed tones. Their union was a scandal, a bargain, a vow written in smoke and shadows. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, Adrian made it clear she would never have his heart. Araxie, sharp-tongued and fearless, refused to bow to his indifference. Their marriage was meant to be nothing more than appearances. Yet in a house built on blood and silence, Araxie begins to build her own mark. Her defiance, her fire, and her quiet kindness draw the Vescari household closer-even as Adrian fights the pull of the very woman he swore he would never want. But in the mafia world, love is not a gift. It is a weapon. And some vows are more dangerous to keep than to break.

Enzo slammed the door shut, keeping his palm firmly against it, resting it beside my head. I looked at him with wide eyes, feeling my heart race as footsteps were racing up the stairs, getting closer and closer. He simply smirked. "Enzo! You come out here right now, you're making us look shame!" His mom yelled, frantically knocking against the door. "Enzo, your mom-" "My mother is not in control of my love life. I am... and I want you," he quickly interrupted, cupping my cheeks and taking a step closer. "I will always choose you, Vera. Today and every single day after that." Frantic knocking on the bathroom door made my head whip around, but Enzo instantly turned my gaze back to him with a hand cupping the right side of my neck. He was so determined, and I could tell all that just from the look in his eyes. I don't know what was different this time go round, but this kiss took my breath away. If it weren't for him holding on to me, I would've already fallen to the floor. "You'll get in so much trouble," I whispered, watching the corner of his lips curl upward. "For you... I'd do it all over again to see that beautiful smile of yours."
