【Hook】
Her arrogant ex-husband forced her to sign divorce papers for the scheming woman he called his Beatrice, unaware that the capital she was about to control would soon acquire his entire empire.
【Blurb】
For three years, she played the role of the docile stand-in wife.
When he slid the divorce papers across the table for the sake of the woman he idolized as his Beatrice-a manipulator in saint's clothing-she signed with elegance.
But he never knew that the woman he shared a bed with each night was, in truth, the shadow mastermind behind an international luxury cosmetics empire, the designated heir to a hedge fund fortune, and a phoenix risen from ashes seeking vengeance for twelve lost family lives.
Her true identity shattered London's elite.
As she turned to leave, the Executive Director of Aurelian Capital burst into the room, bowing deeply to her retreating figure.
"Madam Aurora, the private jet is ready. The Geneva Summit awaits your chairwomanship."
Her ex-husband's wine glass shattered in his hand, the ice-blue calm of his eyes cracking for the first time.
The real game had just begun.
Even his legitimate elder brother, who had always looked down on her, now gazed at her with something far more dangerous than contempt: desire.
When all masks finally fall, the man who once chose a mirage kneels before her, pleading: "Teach me... how to melt for you."

Rejected: Pregnant with the Alpha's Fated Son
I was chosen by the Moon Goddess, only to be rejected by my Alpha in front of our entire pack. Cast out. Broken. Alone. I was forced into the unforgiving wilderness with nothing but the tattered remains of my life. But I wasn't entirely alone. I carried a secret-his secret. The son of the Alpha who marked me as unworthy, the heir he would never know. To survive, I had to become someone else. The weak, invisible Omega died that night, and from her ashes, a warrior was born. I found a new power flowing through my veins, a gift from the Goddess I never understood. I was no longer the pack's weakest link. I was a survivor. A fighter. A mother. But when a deadly plague sweeps through the pack that threw me away-a sickness only I can cure-my past comes hunting for me. The Alpha who broke my soul now needs my help. He doesn't know that I'm his only hope. And he certainly doesn't know that I carry his son. Can I save the people who betrayed me without losing myself? And can I protect my heart from the possessive Alpha who is not just my fated mate, but also the father of my child and the greatest danger I've ever known? Author's Note: I post a new chapter almost every single day!
