Ethan Lu

"Do you know what it feels like to know that all the decisions that you've ever taken in your life are masterminded by someone?" Eleanor Welsh is an intelligent, independent girl who always wanted her life to be in her control since the tragic fatal accident that claimed her parents' lives at twelve. Being an orphan at a such tender age, her father's best friend, Antonio Welsh, took her into his custody but sold her off to a contracted marriage later on to a heartless billionaire, Ethan Grayson, in dire need to save his business from bankruptcy. What happens when the mysteries of her parent's death unfold with her protective husband backing her up? Ethan walked into the dark room unhurriedly with both hands in the pockets of his pants. He was furious, yet he had his usually calm expression. He walked to the fireplace in the room which was the only source of light in the room and pulled out a hot metal. From the way the metal glowed in a dark-red crimson color, even a fool can tell that the metal had been in the fire for hours. Walking to where a man who was chained to the wall with blood all over his body was with the metal still in his hands, Ethan stood before the man, his eyes black from the lack of light in the room. "Mr. Grayson, please..." the man pleaded in almost a whisper "I didn't know she was your wife." Before anybody in the room could blink, the hot metal was placed on the man's face. The man screamed in pain as hot tears fell from his eyes, before fainting. "Take him to his boss as my gift. Anyone that touches my property, I will burn him in hell." Max nodded.

One night. One stranger. One mark that changed everything. Averylle Jasmine Yñigo has it all beauty, wealth, and power. Pero sa likod ng tagumpay niya ay isang mundong kontrolado ng mga lalaking ginagamit siya bilang tulay sa negosyo, lalo na ang ama niyang mapag-kalkula at ang boyfriend niyang sinungaling at manloloko, si Sam Reyes. Pagod na si Ave sa kasinungalingan at pananakit, kaya isang gabi, pinili niyang tumakas at doon siya napunta sa mga bisig ng isang estrangherong nag-iwan ng marka sa kanyang balat… at sa kanyang buhay. Pagkalipas ng ilang linggo, muli silang nagtagpo sa isang corporate event, sa pinakahuling taong inaasahan niyang makita. Aiden Ethan Blackthorne, the cold, powerful billionaire owner of her company… at ang lalaking tumatak sa kanya noong gabing iyon. Ngunit hindi tadhana ang naglapit sa kanila, kundi paghihiganti. Ethan believed Ave’s family was responsible for his late fiancée’s death a lie carefully crafted by Sam and Ethan’s current fiancée, Celeste Navarro. At sa gitna ng pagnanasa at galit, ginamit niya si Ave para sa kanyang kagustuhang makagpaghiganti hanggang siya mismo ang mahulog sa bitag ng damdamin. Pero habang lumalalim ang koneksiyon nila, lumalim din ang dilim sa paligid. Sam’s obsession turns deadly, leading to an ambush that leaves Ave’s mother comatose a tragedy that breaks everything apart. Deceived by lies, trapped by love, and haunted by the mark of her past. Is love still worth of saving even if it's started as revenge?

Ich erwachte in meinem 27-jährigen Körper. Ich hatte Zwillingswelpen, und mein Gefährte war Ethan, der mächtigste Alpha des Nordwestens. Er stand immer an der Spitze der Ranglisten des Wolfsrates. Das „Alpha-Journal“ ernannte ihn sogar zum „Begehrtesten Gefährten des Kontinents“. Sogar das Königliche Rudel wollte ihm seine Prinzessin zur Gemahlin geben. Jeder im Rudel sagte, ich hätte Glück. Doch was tat ich als Erstes? Ich nahm den heiligen Vertrag zur Auflösung unserer Gefährtenbindung und brachte ihn persönlich zu seiner Ex-Geliebten. Ich schob Isabella Swan den Vertrag hin und sagte gelassen: „Ich werde die Mondgöttin bitten, unsere Bindung zu lösen. Ethan gehört dir. Die Welpen auch.“ Isabella starrte mich schockiert an. Sie konnte nicht glauben, dass die Person, die sechs Jahre lang Luna gewesen war, einfach alles aufgeben würde. Ich fügte nur leise hinzu: „Da sie alle deinen Geruch ohnehin lieber mögen, mache ich euch den Weg frei. Sorg einfach dafür, dass Ethan den Vertrag mit seinem Alpha-Zeichen versieht. Sobald das Trennungsritual vorüber ist, vorbei ist, verlasse ich dieses Territorium.“ Dieses Mal würde ich nicht die gleichen Fehler machen. Ich würde nicht länger die Luna sein, die alle ignorierten.

My childhood sweetheart, Samuel Burton, once promises that he will marry me the moment we graduate from college. But on our wedding day, he shows up late. When we finally find him, he's tangled in bed with my stepsister, Vivian Holcomb, in a hotel room. In front of everyone, Ethan Fuller, the heir to the wealthiest family, steps forward and boldly declares that I am the one he has secretly loved for years. Five years into our marriage, he remembers every little thing I say, and I truly believe I am the person he cares about most. Until one day, when I'm doing housework and accidentally find a confidential folder hidden deep in his desk drawer. The very first page is Vivian's resume. On it is his own handwriting. He has written, "Priority. Above everything else." Behind it is a hospital operations report I have never seen before. The date matches the night of my car accident. I was rushed to a hospital owned by Fuller Group, yet no surgeon ever came. By the time I woke up, the baby I'm carrying was gone because I had lost too much blood. I cried in Ethan's arms until my voice broke, but I never told him the full truth. I didn't want him to worry even more. But now I finally know. Vivian was also injured that night, and the order Ethan sent to the hospital was— "Pull every specialist available. Treat Vivian first." My tears soak into the page, blurring the ink. "If I'm not your top priority, I'll disappear from your life then."
