Romance ...one man with a a drowning past...
In the heat of a family saga clouded in betrayal, power struggles, and the pursuit of vengeance, Save Me follows the story of Aaron Hades, a third-generation billionaire, shaped by his trauma and ambition, as he navigates the dangerous waters of familial duty and a risky love. Born into a family of wealth and affluence, Aaron found himself on the run with his mother who wanted freedom. With his mother's tragic end, Aaron finds himself in a fierce battle-not just for control of his family's conglomerate, but for revenge.
Aaron Hades is a man loved by many and hated by more, stemming from his good looks, his success in business, his wealthy background to the negative side, his indifference about people and icy personality. He was both the admiration and envy of people. Aaron is a man who has grown to live the life of a loner, feared and respected by most. But what laid beneath his perfect person that no one knows is a sad past that haunts him to the deepest of his soul, a young boy that had lost it all over and over again, a little boy who has lost the meaning of love or life, a child whose past still scars his heart in a fresh wound, a past that has created a man whose sole aim is it do as was done to him, a promise to hurt them just like they'd hurt him, a promise to be the angel until the horns peak out. And no one would know that beneath his perfect appearance, something sinister was brewing, an opportunity to pay back to those who had taken from him in a thousand folds. There is however one more step to finally having it all, a woman. If he is not engaged in a short time, he runs at a risk of losing every thing to Sara, his opponent.
...one heart, broken in a thousand jarred pieces...
Growing up with divorced parents was a whole new journey for Merida at a tender age of ten, and when she refuses to go with her mother, she is abandoned and left to live with her father. What started as a father-daughter relationship soon turns into something violent and abusive and her once innocent father dives into the world of gambling, a move that cost him his daughter and his life.
After her father's death, Merida slips into depression, living her life like a passing ghoul, and when her father's debts pass to her, she has even more misery to face. Finally with her unwelcoming mother and a sister she was no longer familiar with, Merida's life seemed like it had just had about enough, more than she could take. Merida, a strong-willed and bright child had now become nothing, withering with every gust of wind.
...are thrust together in an unwanted fate...
Aaron's fate, once intertwined with hers, draws the back together. Once his best friend, she has changed into an embodiment of bitterness and vulnerability, caused by her father's abuse and get mother's neglect. The two were torn apart by circumstances and choices, but fate has a way of bringing people back in unexpected ways.
A freak encounter at a bridge ignites a flame of hatred between Aaron and Merida. Each harbors grudges against the other; for Aaron, he hated that she was so ready to let go. For Merida, Aaron's abandonment ten years ago is a reminder of all she lost from that moment on, the final crack in her make-believe reality.. Their worlds collide under the light of night, setting off a series of events neither could foresee.
In the depths of their turmoil, Aaron presents a proposition to the woman he once held dear: a fake engagement to secure his grandfather's approval and finally claim the company. Reluctantly, Merida agrees, needing to pay her father's debts and leave her mother. The plan is simple-pretend to be the perfect couple in public, while remaining indifferent in private.
The pair start on their grand plan to fool the world about their engagement, featuring in everything that carries news about them. And in less than a month, the world is fooled. Ellie is able to save her father and Matthew is well on his way to getting his contract. Living together is no bliss as they both agree to not be involved in the other's life once they go behind closed doors. Behind the scene, the only thing that continues between them is the awkwardness. Only that this is in close proximity and it is causing a little thump here and there deep in their hearts.

G~Aden "There will be no falling in love, we will only act as a loving couple when we are in public, we will share a room to make it believable, but no intimacy, touching is off-limits.
We'll only have sex once a month, and that's solely to produce an heir. You won't interfere in my business, and I won't interfere in yours. You will be my wife in every sense and you will not be involved with any other man," he said, arrogance seeping from every word.
I watch his mouth move, I'm not ready to fall in love with any man, especially not one as arrogant and egoistic as him. I can handle acting as a loving couple, and as for intimacy once a month. I can agree to that just to satisfy my sexual cravings with no strings attached.
"Where can I sign?" I asked since I had nothing to lose.

After Divorce, I Return As CEO
Khira "Listen, Gadreel Ødegaar," she looked at him, not hesitating this time. "It's my anniversary present for you. Let's divorce."
***
Ivory Remington had sacrificed five years to look after her husband Gadreel who was in a vegetative state after an accident and a few months ago, he finally awakened like a miracle. She thought it was the start of their happy life but Gadreel still had no heart for her.
On their anniversary and her birthday, she received a cheating video of her dear husband and her stepsister.
Heartbroken, Ivory chose to quit this stupid game. She decided to set him free but the reason she left on the divorce agreement pierced Gadreel's noble pride.
***
"Impotent? Are you serious?" He gripped her wrist and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.
"I'm a woman, Gadreel. I'm tired of being in a sexless marriage. Let's end it once and for all."
"Sexless, huh?" he chuckled lowly and without warning grabbed her chin in between his hands, pulling her face closer. "Turns out my wife was so eager to get a man between her legs? " Billionaire's Regret, Too Late!
Ela Osaretin "Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage.
We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment.
For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage.
Today, I finally received his message:
"I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport."
When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend.
In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air.
Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again.
He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be.
"Aurora, come back. I regret everything!"
Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!
