Дочь арабского шейха не имеет права на ошибку, но я ее совершила – влюбилась в лучшего друга и отдала ему свою невинность. Я верила – нам с Нейтоном суждено быть вместе, наивно полагая, что отец позволит мне самостоятельно выбрать будущего мужа. «– Ты выйдешь замуж после окончания университета, Алисия. За Амирана аль-Мактума – наследника Анмара». Амиран: – Клятвы верности, первая брачная ночь, твоя невинность и наши будущие дети – все это уже принадлежит мне, Алиса. – Нет, я не хочу. Тогда я еще не знала, что для Амирана аль-Мактума не существует иной воли, кроме его собственной. Ответив «нет» я подписала смертный приговор себе, своей семье и Нейтану.

Being a Vampires pet is a fate no Human wants to endure… I was 6 years old when my parents were killed and I was taken to the pet store. A 6 year old cannot make choices for herself, so why am I punished for something my parents did? This question haunts me. Instead of playing outside with other kids, I was groomed and trained to obey my Master… I was to be the perfect pet. A maid, a sexual partner, a nurse, a blood bag… Anything my Master wanted, that was what I was expected to give. Obedience… That is what the Ringmaster prided herself on with her selection. She didn't get so lucky with me. Madame Vienna and I clashed hardcore. I learned quickly not to speak out of turn, but it didn't stop me from throwing a snarky remark here and there when I felt that I was healed enough to handle another punishment. This may be the only reason I lasted so long without being sold. But my time had come. I was on display for the world to see. Tattered and torn, but it didn't seem to matter to the man with the rose gold eyes who made the Vampires tremble without even saying a single word… What kind of creature was he to cause this type of reaction in an apex predator? I clenched my eyes shut as he brought me to the counter to check out. "Come, Ambrosia." The man purred after a moment. Shaking, I followed him, trying to take in any and every small detail of the outside world… "You can do this. Pretend it's just a bad dream… You know how to survive." I whispered to myself, as I followed my new Master to what was sure to be my death.

A girl named "Swara" spending her life, by doing a job in one cafe in the city of "London." She was happy in her small world created by herself. However, her life changed when she got kidnapped one day while returning from her job at night. Later, when she opened her eyes, she found herself tied with a pole. And in front of her were standing the people, who were having the sight of vultures. "No...," she murmured in fear.

VIOLET-He left me because of his secrets that he refused to share with me. He didn't care how he shattered already broken pieces and left a mess. My family was the one to put me back together with their love & care. And now I'm a completely different person, the girl who was abused & the woman who was left behind are nowhere to be found. Now I'm here with an armor that I'd built in his absence, with a heart incased behind walls of steel & I refused to let him fool me again. He might've been the one to heal my body with his soft touches but my heart was too tender to believe in him again despite that one dream that could be possible only with him. He says he'd his reasons, that he'll do anything for my forgiveness. But should I trust him again? Should I give him the chance he's begging for? Or should I just fool him like he did me & get what I really want? COLE-I made a mistake when I left her. But now I'm back to beg for forgiveness. The problem is My broken princess has turned into one with steel heart & ironclad armor. She doesn't care about my sweet words or tender touches anymore. She's not the woman I'd left behind. She knows how to hurt me & she hurts me where it's fucking painful. She says she won't forgive me but she'll have to because there was nothing else I wanted more than her forgiveness. I'll do anything she wants, give her everything she needs except that one thing that she really wanted from me. For the second time I'll do something she'll hate me for but at least I'll have her where I wanted her. By my side-In my heart-As my wife.

I and Ella have been in love with each other since 6 years old. She was my princess and I knew she will rule my heart like a queen when we will grow old. I am smart, brave, and very over-protective of the person whom I love. I love the concept of saving the damsel in distress. . . But then everything went down the hill when I discovered who my girlfriend is. My Girlfriend had kept one of the biggest truths of her life from me. My Girlfriend was never a damsel in distress. My Girlfriend is Mafia Queen!

ЭМИЛИЯ: Цель Адриана Батлера достигнута и контракт на мое тело у него в кармане. «– Ты должна запомнить основные правила: никакой одежды в постели. Никаких других мужчин. Никаких разговоров. Полный доступ, когда и куда я захочу.» Я проиграла сражение, но главное противостояние впереди, и я сделаю все, чтобы выйти из него непобеждённой. АДРИАН: Гордеева действительно могла сесть в мое кресло. Для этого нужно было совсем немного. Не быть такой возбуждающе-сексуальной. Не подходить ко мне на «Распутной Джен». Выйти замуж за Демидова-младшего. Не повезло тебе, детка. Ты сильно накосячила. Облажалась по всем статьям. Теперь мое кресло тебе светит в единственном случае, если в нем буду сидеть я.
