From South Korea to the UK, Nigeria to his quiet hometown, he's helped dozens of clients, all under one rule, no emotions, no strings attached. He calls himself a "single life helper," believing every marriage should have sincerity even if his own are built on contracts.
But after years of doing it, Charles is burned out. His secret career becomes a ticking time bomb when a mother-in-law and a sister-in-law and two hostesses catch him trying to sign another contract. They don't understand his business and maybe, neither does he anymore.
Then, he meets Casser, a calm, intelligent judge with a mysterious past and quiet charm. What starts as another job quickly turns into something deeper. For the first time, Charles feels something real. He's breaking all the rules. He's falling for her.

She's back, hunted by her own siblings over a multi-billion dollar inheritance and desperate for protection. Torn between unfinished history and a newfound future, Charles must decide who he really is and who he wants to be.
As secrets unravel and danger closes in, Charles realizes some contracts can't protect you from heartbreak. But love? Love might just save him.
Will he fight for the woman who gave him hope, or fall back into the arms of the past?
Find out in the "shackled" a story of love, betrayal, and second chances where every emotion is real... even when the marriage isn't.

MY MASTERS
Mercy Kay For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
My Stepbrother, My Ruin
Daisy_D "I knew he was trouble the moment I walked into our shared house. The way his hands gripped my waist when no one was looking, the way his voice dipped when he said my name, it wasn't just wrong, it was dangerous. He wasn't just my stepbrother, he was my undoing."
