My Mate Is The Ruthless Alpha President

" you can never be my mate" Vivian William thought she was finally about to feel safe. She walked into the Pack Affairs Office believing she was securing a future only to be destroyed by a single phone call. The man she trusted didn’t hesitate. He laughed as he told her the truth. She was never meant to be his mate. Never chosen. Just a convenient name on paper until the woman he truly wanted arrived. Abandoned. Humiliated. Watched by a pack that thrived on her shame. And with her mother’s life depending on medical coverage she no longer had, Vivian was left with no room to fall apart. That was when a stranger appeared. Finnick Norton was calm in a way that felt dangerous. Sharp-eyed. Controlled. Sitting in a wheelchair, yet carrying a presence that made the room bend around him. He didn’t offer comfort. He didn’t offer lies. He offered marriage. A bond without promises. Without romance. A clean agreement between two people who needed something badly enough to risk everything. Vivian said yes, believing she had nothing left to lose. She didn’t know she had just married the most powerful man in Sunshine City. Finnick Norton isn’t just a stranger. He’s the unseen Alpha behind Finnor Group the empire that rose in silence and now stands above the city’s strongest families. A man who controls without raising his voice. A man who never moves without purpose. At work, Vivian is forced to interview the city’s most mysterious and desired bachelor only to come face to face with her husband hours after marrying him… a man who looks at her like she’s a stranger. But Finnick is always watching. What begins as survival turns into tension. Into restraint. Into something neither of them planned for. Because Vivian was never meant to be temporary. And Finnick Norton never makes a bond he doesn’t intend to keep.

Scripted Hearts: Behind the Lens

"Don’t get it twisted, Frank. When the camera’s rolling, I can look at you like I love you. I can touch you like I need you. But it’s just acting. Don’t fall for something that doesn’t exist.” Frank should have listened. Landing the lead role in the highly anticipated BL blockbuster Echoes of Silence was supposed to be his breakthrough moment. Acting opposite Dean Shome—the untouchable “King of Queer Cinema”—was a dream come true. Until day one. Cold. Critical. Unforgiving. Dean makes it clear: Frank is nothing more than a rookie with a pretty face and zero depth. To him, Frank is a liability. But when the director demands more realism—longer kisses, lingering touches, breathless confessions—the line between performance and truth begins to blur. Off-camera, Dean is distant, professional, and emotionally sealed shut. On-camera, he looks at Frank like he’s starving. Late-night rehearsals turn into heated confrontations. Accidental touches last too long. Improvised lines feel too honest. And Frank realizes something terrifying: He’s no longer acting. There’s just one problem. At home, a girlfriend waits for him—a life he thought he wanted. Meanwhile, rumors swirl around Dean Shome: secretly gay, famously celibate, emotionally unavailable. The world sees perfect chemistry. The tabloids smell scandal. And Dean keeps saying it’s all fake. But if it’s fake… why does he hold Frank like he’s afraid to let go when no one is watching? Is Frank just a method actor who got lost in a role? Or is he falling for a man who refuses to admit he feels the same? In an industry where image is everything and love can ruin a career, how far will they go to protect their secrets? And when the red light turns off… who are they really?

Back to the 80s: Transmigrated Into a Novel, Got Picked Up by a Child

She only wanted her college acceptance letter. Instead, she got sent back to 1985… and picked up a child who calls her Mom. The moment Lily Parker opened her long-awaited university admission letter, her world flipped upside down. One blink later, she was standing at the gates of a high school in 1985. Her identity? A third-year student with only two months left before the make-or-break college entrance exam. Worse—she didn’t just time-travel. She transmigrated into a novel. Not as the heroine. Not even as the villainess. But as a forgettable side character destined to be cannon fodder in a rebirth-and-transmigration story. Fine. If she couldn’t be the main character, she’d happily sit back, eat popcorn, and watch the drama unfold. Until a tiny child suddenly blocked her path. With teary eyes and a sweet, soft voice, the little human tugged her sleeve. “Mommy, are you running away from home again? Can you at least go two more blocks this time?” Lily's eyes widened in shock …Excuse me?! Before she could process being promoted to “mother” overnight, things spiraled even further. Christopher Hale—cold, disciplined, and feared as the most ruthless officer in his unit—had just returned from a mission when he was told to sign for a “package” at the gate. The package? A soft, clingy little dumpling with pigtails who threw herself into his arms and called him “Daddy.” A transmigrated side character. A cold military officer. A mysterious child who insists they’re her parents. And a future that seems to have arrived ten years too early.

Love Across the Light Years -The Devil CEO Indulges My Lies.

Family is a luxury not everyone can afford. Adelyn learned that the day Clara returned to the Scott family —and she quietly stopped belonging. No one abused her. No one hurt her openly. But the love that was once hers alone became divided. The attention that once chose her … became something she had to borrow. And whenever something precious stood between her and Clara —Adelyn was the one asked to let go. Not once. Not twice. But every single time. Her dreams. Her choices. Her place in the family. Her heart didn’t break in a single moment —it wore down slowly … until nothing remained worth fighting for. So, she erased herself from their world. Not in anger. Not in revenge. But to save what little of herself was left. ————— Seven years later, Adelyn returned. Not for the Scott family. Not for their love. She came back for the dreams she was once forced to abandon —and this time, nothing would be taken from her. No compromises. No sacrifices. Only her life. Her rules. She breathed in freedom. “No family…no shackles.” But just then— Two small arms wrapped around her legs. She stiffened. Looking down, she met a pair of familiar doe eyes staring up at her with unwavering trust. “Mama … Eira waited long for you. Don’t leave again.” …Mama? Before she could understand or react, a tall shadow fell over them. A man stood there —gaze sharp, cold, claiming —looking at her like she had belonged to him. “You dared to show up again?” Adelyn felt clueless. She would have asked him what he meant, however — Before she could speak — the ground vanished beneath her feet. A powerful arm lifted her effortlessly. “Since you dared …” his voice dropped —low, restrained, dangerous. “Don’t think of escaping again.
