Keeping the Promise After Rebirth

Xia Weiwei was cheerful, trusting, and always willing to see the best in everyone. Unfortunately, she placed her trust in the wrong people. Blinded by the lies of her beloved stepsister and her closest male friend, Weiwei turned against Mo Shian, the husband who loved her beyond reason. She demanded a divorce, rejected his protection, and unknowingly helped those scheming against her destroy him. Only after Mo Shian died protecting her did Weiwei discover the devastating truth. Her kind and caring sister was a two-faced snake who wanted everything that belonged to her. Her identity. Her inheritance. Even her husband. A week after Mo Shian’s death, Weiwei was chased to the edge of a cliff by the two people she once trusted most. With nowhere left to run, she made one final vow before jumping. If she were given another chance, she would make every person who betrayed them pay. More importantly, she would love Mo Shian with everything she had and give him the blissful marriage he had always deserved. Her prayer was answered. Weiwei opened her eyes five years in the past, only six months into her troubled marriage. Mo Shian was alive, her enemies were still hiding behind their masks, and none of the tragedies had happened yet. This time, she would not ask for a divorce. She would hold on to her husband, expose every lie, and rewrite their ending. But after rejecting him so cruelly, how could she convince Mo Shian that her sudden love was real? And when the cry of an ancient phoenix follows her back from death, Weiwei begins to realize that her rebirth may not have been a miracle at all.

The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth: beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead, she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.
