Zephyr is the last air dragon in existence. For a century and a half, she has searched for her mate. Finally, she decides to have a true dragon with Avani, the last earth dragon and only remaining male dragon. Her son, Ancalagon, is the last of the pure dragons. Ishir is a Bengal tiger shifter. He became friends with Avani before he was captured and placed into an Arena. There he met Tana, the fire dragon. He befriended her, her hybrid daughter and eventually her Lycan mate. He has been working to rescue shifters and sometimes even missing humans as his job for years. It was during a meeting to discuss taking down a new Arena that Ishir met Zephyr and realized that he was mated to a dragon. When Zephyr recognizes Ishir as her mate, she refuses to acknowledge him. After all this time, she finally finds her mate when she’s just had her son. But a dragon can’t stay away from their mate, and in a moment of weakness, she goes to Ishir, spending a night of passion more intense than anything she could have imagined. However, when she returns home, she finds that her son has been kidnapped, taken by hunters. She begins searching for him, half crazed to protect him from the people who so willingly kill shifters. When she finally finds her son, Oliver, the lead hunter makes an agreement with Zephyr. She will work for him in exchange for her son’s life. Now Zephyr will have to go against her very nature, becoming an assassin to kill those she is sworn to protect in order to save her son. Can Ishir find Ancalagon, protect the shifters and save Zephyr from herself, or will she lose herself to save her son?

It was our wedding anniversary when my husband's high school sweetheart posted a sonogram picture on her social media, with her captioning a public thank-you to my husband: [Thank you to the man who's been there for me for ten years, and for giving me a son.] The room spun, and anger surged through me as I quickly commented: [So, you're proud of being a homewrecker?] Almost immediately, my husband called, his voice full of rage. "How can you think such disgusting things? All I did was help her with IVF, fulfilling her dream of becoming a single mom. "And by the way, Ruby only needed one try to get pregnant, while you’ve been through three rounds with nothing. Your body is useless!" Just three days ago, he told me he was going abroad for business—ignoring my calls and messages the entire time. I thought he was just busy. However, it turned out he was with her, attending her prenatal checkup. Half an hour later, Ruby posted again, showing off a table full of delicious food. [I got tired of French food, so Ash made me all my favorite dishes. He’s the best!] I stared at the pregnancy test in my hand, the joy I had felt earlier now completely gone. After eight years of love and six years of swallowing my pride just to keep the marriage alive, I’m finally ready to let go.

Sa mundo ng mga diwata, kapag may taong nakasabay nila sa oras kung kailan sila isinilang ay itinuturi nila itong kakambal. Magkaiba man ng mundo, nakagisnang buhay ay hindi pareho pero sa paniniwala ng diwata kakambal niya ito. Siya ay si Alea, isang tao na laging dinadalaw ng kakambal niyang diwata. Ngunit pilit silang inilalayo sa isa't-isa kaya lumaki silang hindi nagkakasama. Lumipas ang maraming taon at hindi na rin nagpapakita ang kambal nitong diwata. Ngunit nang dumating ang nalalapit na panglabing-walong taong kaarawan nila ay muli itong nagparamdam at nagpakita. Siya ay si Avaleighra, ang kakambal niyang diwata.

Elena Matthews appeared to have it all with her wealthy tycoon husband, Richard McDowell. However, her seemingly perfect relationship crumbled when she caught him red-handed with his step-sister in a hotel. Just when she thought life couldn't be worse, her brother and his wife died in a tragic car accident. Now, suddenly, Elena is tasked with being the legal guardian of her late brother's six-year-old son, and also set to inherit his business until her nephew is old enough to take over the billion-dollar enterprise. A year and a half later, rich and successful, when Elena returns to New York, her ex-husband can't stop begging her to take him back. And that's not all.

But with a heart scarred by love's betrayal, will she risk it all for a man from the same family that shattered her world? Or will she fully embrace her boss lady status at Matthews Empire and shut love out for good? And what about those secrets she's been keeping—the ones that could blow everything up? And let's not forget about the revenge she's itching to dish out. Will she manage to have it all without getting burned? Or is this whole thing going to crash and burn before anything good even gets a chance to start? ——-S N I P P E T ——- “I tried to warn you, princess, but you always seemed to have your head in the clouds. But it's not too late, is it? Be my woman, and I promise to make you my queen," he whispered. To which Elena replied. "I have learned my lesson, Mister. Such lies can't move me anymore."

Sa edad na dalawampu, napilitang magpakasal si Lalaine sa kahilingan ng kanyang pinakamamahal na lola na malapit nang pumanaw. Hindi niya kilala ang napangasawa dahil inalok lang siya ni Lola Mathilde na pakasalan ang apo nito. Hanggang sa nakuha ni Lalaine ang marriage certificate tatlong buwan pagkatapos niyang ikasal, nalaman niyang ang lalaking pinakasalan niya ay walang iba kundi si Knives Dawson—ang may-ari ng Dawson's Group of Companies at ang pinakamayamang negosyante sa Luzon. Nalaman din niyang kinasusuklaman siya ni Knives at napilitan lang itong pakasalan siya dahil kay Lola Mathilde, kaya matapos nilang maikasal ay lumipad na ito patungong California at hindi na sila muling nagkita pa—sa madaling salita, kasal lang sila sa papel. Makalipas ang isang taon ay napag-alaman ni Lalaine na nagbalik na si Knives Dawson mula California, kaya naman nagpasya siyang mag-file ng annulment dahil payapa na kanyang lola at wala nang dahilan para ipagpatuloy pa ang kasal. Subalit isang pangyayari ang naglagay kay Lalaine sa alanganin—kailangan niya ng isang milyong piso para sa kanyang kapatid na nasa nursing home at kasalukuyang nasa comatose state. Dahil desperada na, lakas-loob na humingi ng tulong si Lalaine kay Knives Dawson. Pumayag naman si Knives subalit kapalit ng isang milyong piso ay pipirma si Lalaine sa agreement, kung saan nakapaloob doon na magiging babae siya ni Knives at partner sa kama— na magtatapos lang sa oras na makahanap na siya ng ibang babae. May mamagitan kayang pagmamahal sa dalawang tao na magkaiba ang paniniwala at antas sa buhay? At ngayong nagising na ang first love ni Knives na si Gwyneth mula sa pagka-coma dulot ng isang aksidente, tuluyan na kayang matatapos ang kanilang agreement? Ipaglalaban ba niya ang kanyang karapatan lalo pa't natuklasan niyang nagdadalang-tao siya? O magpaparaya dahil nakatakda ng magpakasal ang dalawa?

Love For The Wicked Book Three. In my eyes, the world is a huge sandbox created for the big boys. Girls, money, business… and I always strive to come out on top until my father gave me an ultimatum. I needed to find a wife, or I’d lose my rights to the family business. I found the perfect woman for the scheme I devised, of course. She was beautiful, feisty, the picture-perfect wife to make my father believe I was done playing games. In return, she needed a favor, the kind that takes nine months to deliver. The rules were laid out meticulously, from the no touching to fake falling in love. After a year, we would part ways amicably with no hassle, no demands, and no regrets; after all, it was all just a game. As my plan took its course, it dawned on me that playing house was a game I never should have played. She started to grow on me, from that sexy little pout to the late nightcap, the endless dirty banter, and even the fights we had. I realize I enjoyed having her around. Trouble is, how will I make her believe I am not playing games anymore? That I don’t want her to be just my contract wife, that I don’t want twelve months with her but more?
