Mistakenly Yours: Contract Marriage With The Billionaire

Sara Falcone, the eldest daughter of the prestigious Falcone family, has always been bright, ambitious, and determined. Groomed to take over her father’s empire, she quickly rose to prominence as the company’s CEO, earning respect in the business world. But when Falcone Industries teeters on the brink of bankruptcy, her world begins to crumble. Desperate to save her family’s legacy, Sara turns to the last person she ever thought she would, her greatest rival, and once, her secret crush: Luca De Augustino. Cold, calculating, and infuriatingly powerful, Luca offers her a way out, but at a cost. In exchange for rescuing her company, she must agree to a contract marriage with him. Luca De Augustino, heir and CEO of the mighty Augustino Group, was raised to lead without compromise and to never bow to anyone. Yet there was one person who always challenged him, Sara. Years ago, when she confessed her feelings, he shattered her heart with cruel rejection. Seven long years have passed since that day, but fate brings them back together. Now, bound by a one-year contract marriage, Sara must navigate a dangerous game of pride, power, and unresolved emotions while Luca sees this as his chance to finally claim the one woman who once loved him. ~~~~~ “You think I'll help you just because you pathetically kneel in front of me!” Luca chuckled. “What happened to the woman who always held her head high in pride?” “If you don't want to help me, then just say so!” Sara raised her voice. Standing up, she turned to leave when Luca grasped her hand, thus making her turn to him. “Fine, I'll help you. But there's a condition,” Luca pronounced. “And what's this condition?” asked Sara. “Become Mrs. De Augustino. In short, marry me, Sara Falcone.” ~~~~~ *All the names and places used in the story have nothing to do with the reality. It's a fiction.*

One Piece: Comparison of Two Lufees, This Luffy is Too Competitive!

Comparison of Two Lufees, This Luffy is Too Competitive! At the Great War at Marineford, a comparison live stream suddenly appeared! The person being compared was none other than Monkey D. Luffy, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates! One white, one red – dual Luffys on screen! In the original world, Luffy is carefree and reckless, charging into situations without much thought. Though he lives freely, during the Marineford War, he could only watch helplessly as his brother died right before his eyes. In the parallel world, however, Luffy understood the law of the jungle at just three years old, pushing himself to extreme levels from a young age! He mastered Armament Haki at 7, Observation Haki at 9, and Conqueror’s Haki at 14! He set sail at 15 and awakened his Nika form in the same year! Not only does he push himself relentlessly, but he also drives his crewmates to do the same! Zoro: "I can't afford to slack off for even a moment, because if I do, Luffy's swordsmanship will surpass mine!" Nami: "The captain knocks on my door every night without fail, and within three months, he'd already mastered all of my navigation skills!" Buggy: "What did I do to deserve the honor of serving two generations of Pirate Kings...?" At Marineford, Luffy steps on Akainu’s head: "You had your chance, but you blew it!"

Why couldn’t it save the people I love? Why?” She questioned. But no one answered, only the sound of the wind, and the heavy scent of blood and iron.Her eyes red, heart filled with rage,but no tears fell. SYNOPSIS..~~~~~~~~ Every century, the Dark Moon (Nemeris )chooses its heir—where darkness and chaos collide. A power sent to humanity, either a curse or a blessing. It’s a miracle—the night when the moon turned black, the storm in rage. People said the moon bled that day; the gods were angry. But little did they know, it was the birth of power, chaos, and destruction. A being whose power has been feared and told as stories for century upon century— a power that could be compared to the gods, a power that grows day by day as easy as breathing. A baby wrapped in black silk was found under an oak tree, beneath the raging storm. They named her Lila. Like happiness came tragedy. The village she once knew crumbled to ashes before her eyes. Everything was gone—burnt— except for fate that remains unchanged and cruel. She could hear it, she could feel it— the power—her blood remembers. She was never meant to be human. She never was. A man too powerful to be in this world, capable of conquering kingdoms upon kingdoms. A person with no pinch of kindness or warmth— only chaos, cruelty, and hatred could describe him. The enemy of the world, destined to be killed by the heir of Nemeris— a being that was never meant to exist, but yet to be known to the kingdom. The king’s bastard son, who’s known to be a useless man cursed by the gods— Kieren Theron Varyn. Will they cross paths and change the fate the gods have set for them? Or will they become sworn enemies and battle till the world is destroyed to fulfill their purpose? Lila, a child who received the blessings of the shadow and the last bloodline of her people, with the fate of the world in her hands. Now haunted by the living and the dead, she must choose between the girl she was and the one whose fate is covered in darkness and already written. Can she change it? For the dark ones are rising. Can she embrace her identity and the power she hates the most? And can she save humanity—or destroy it? All answers lie in her hands. For it is said that a single drop of blood from the child of Nemeris can change the holds the power to reshape the world itself.
