Too Late For Your Second Chance
Modern My fiancé, Bentley Wise, heir to a New York real estate empire, promised we'd marry in 99 days. But after he saved a socialite, Frida Tanner, from a landslide, he spent those days repaying her "kindness," abandoning me at every turn.
When Frida, driving distracted, killed my mother in a car crash, Bentley defended her at the funeral. "It was an accident, Adelle. You're causing a scene."
He shielded my mother's killer, pushed me to the ground, and chose her over our ten years of love.
Lying on the floor of the chapel, I watched him comfort the woman who destroyed my life. I knew then that our love was dead.
I exposed their crimes online and fled to Paris to start over.
But just as I found new love and a new life, Bentley appeared, begging for a second chance. "I'm so sorry, Adelle. Please, just come back to me."
I refused, telling him I was with someone else. That night, Frida's mother, seeking revenge, had me kidnapped and left for dead.
Bentley sacrificed himself to save me, taking the blows meant for me. As he lay bleeding, he pleaded, "Give me another chance. I'll do anything."
I looked at the man who had destroyed me, then saved me, and said, "I have a new life now, Bentley. A life you have no part in." His Secret Son, My Broken Heart
Modern "Look at the reflection in the window, sweetie," the TikTok sleuth messaged me.
That one notification unraveled my entire life.
My fiancé, Ashton, wasn't on a business trip. He was with Angela.
And Alfie, the seven-year-old "little brother" I' d been raising and financing for two years?
He was actually their son.
I was just the ATM covering their bills while Ashton bought Angela a diamond ring with my money.
When I tried to expose them, Angela played her trump card.
She gave Alfie an angora rabbit, knowing he had a deadly allergy, just to frame me for attempted murder.
"You poisoned him because you're jealous!" she shrieked in the crowded ER.
Ashton looked at me with pure hatred.
"You're a monster, Kaylynn."
They thought they had me cornered.
They didn't know I' d installed hidden cameras in the house three days ago.
Or that I had the DNA test proving Alfie wasn't even Ashton's biological son.
I wiped my tears and smiled at the police officer.
"I have a video I think you need to see." Abandon Deadly Betrayal, Embrace New Life
Romance My fiancé Franklin and I had been together for ten years. I was standing at the altar in the chapel I designed myself, waiting to marry the man who had been my entire world since high school.
But when our wedding planner, Hayley, who was officiating, looked at him and asked, "Franklin Frye, will you marry me?" he didn't laugh. He looked at her with a love I hadn't seen in years and said, "I do."
He left me standing alone at the altar. His excuse? Hayley, the other woman, was supposedly dying of a brain tumor. He then forced me to donate my rare blood type to save her, had my beloved cat put down to appease her cruel whims, and even left me to drown, swimming right past me to pull her from the water first.
The last time he left me to die, I was suffocating on the kitchen floor, going into anaphylactic shock from the peanuts Hayley had deliberately put in my food. He chose to rush her to the hospital for a fake seizure instead of saving my life.
I finally understood. He didn't just betray me; he was willing to kill me for her.
As I lay recovering in the hospital, alone, my father called with an insane proposal: a marriage of convenience to Arden Harvey, a reclusive and powerful tech CEO. My heart was a dead, hollow thing. Love was a lie. So when he asked if a change of groom was in order, I heard myself say, "Yes. I'll marry him." No More Handyman: His Last Stand
Modern For three years, I poured my soul into Innovate, building Brittany' s startup from the ground up as her lead engineer and live-in boyfriend.
I fixed her code, her leaky faucet, and every problem in her life, while she paid me a pittance, treating me like a glorified handyman.
But at her success party, watching her beam at her ex-boyfriend Dylan, unveiled as the new "visionary," something inside me snapped.
Then came the ultimate insult: demotion to Dylan' s assistant, his snakeskin boots propped on MY desk, MY awards tossed in a dusty box.
The years of exploitation culminated in a single, burning question: how could someone I gave everything to treat me with such utter contempt?
No more.
I handed her my resignation, a meticulously itemized invoice for eighty-seven thousand dollars of unpaid work, and played a recording of her own words.
"Forty-eight hours, Brittany," I said, pocketing my phone. "The clock is ticking."
That night, I walked out of her apartment for good, the trash bag holding her memories of me thudding satisfyingly down the chute.
This wasn' t just an exit; it was a declaration of war. Betrayed by the Man I Loved
Billionaires I loved Ethan Scott for a decade, dreaming of being his wife, his partner, and the mother of his children.
On our wedding night, when he whispered about starting a family, my heart soared.
I believed he finally loved me back.
Weeks later, I discovered I was pregnant with twins, and my joy was boundless.
But that joy shattered when I secretly overheard Ethan, his mistress, and his friends boasting about drugging and violating me as part of a cruel, six-figure bet.
My life twisted into a nightmare of public humiliation as Ethan paraded me around, forcing a paternity test for all five men involved in his sick game.
I was judged, abandoned, and then falsely accused, leading Ethan to shove me so hard I lost my twin babies.
He didn't ask if I was okay, only complained about the bloodstains on the rug.
I had lost everything: my babies, my dignity, and the man I loved had become a monster.
But as I lay bleeding, a cold, hard clarity settled inside me.
The game had just begun for them, but for me, it was time to play a different one.
I called my brother, the ruthless lawyer, ready to bury everyone who stood in my way. Beyond The Broken Heart: Stella\'s Vengeance
Romance My boyfriend, Caleb, was my family, my everything, for nearly two decades.
He worked as a security guard for a spoiled tech heiress, Gabrielle, but our Fourth of July plans were finally just for us.
Then a frantic call from his client shattered everything.
Suddenly, we were on a deserted road, fireworks popping in the distance, when a "carjacking" erupted.
As masked men attacked, Caleb didn't hesitate.
He sprinted past me, sacrificing my safety to shield Gabrielle, whispering, "If anything happens to you, I can't live with myself."
His words, and the knife searing my side, were a shock that cut deeper than any blade.
I bled out on the asphalt, while Caleb fussed over Gabrielle's minor scratch.
I woke up in a hospital, alone, only to hear nurses describe Caleb as the "devoted guard" who hadn't left Gabrielle's side.
He eventually appeared, reeking of her perfume, offering pathetic excuses and blaming me for being "in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Just then, Gabrielle, pristine and smug, was wheeled in.
"We both had our panic buttons," she purred, "We were going to see who he'd save."
She confirmed the carjacking was a setup, a twisted bet I never knew I was in.
My world imploded. How could the man I loved, my family, orchestrate such a cruel betrayal, then abandon me for a sick game?
He chose her, leaving me broken.
But I wouldn't stay broken.
This was just the beginning of my reckoning. Whispers of the Delta: A Ghostly Comeback
Fantasy It was my wedding night in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, the air thick with the hum of my guitar and the sweet promise of a new life with Jennifer.
Everyone called me a prodigy, especially when I poured my essence into the "Soul Chord," a gift that felt like pure magic flowing through my fingers.
Then, the juke joint doors burst open, and a biker gang stormed in, dragging me off stage.
They held me down, and their leader, with a ball-peen hammer, systematically crushed the bones in my left hand, the one that played my Soul Chord.
Through a haze of blinding pain, I saw Jennifer, shielding Caleb, watching without a word, her eyes cold and distant.
Later, in the clinic, drugged but awake, I heard their whispers: Jennifer, Sabrina, and Caleb.
They had planned it all, drugged me, orchestrated the attack to steal my music for Caleb' s album.
My deepest secret, a dormant Soul Chord in my right hand, was brought up.
And then, Jennifer quietly, methodically, severed the tendons in my right wrist, destroying my last hope, my last chance to play.
They framed me as a violent gang affiliate, spread lies, and announced Jennifer and Caleb' s engagement, built on my ruin.
My own adopted mother, Sabrina, then ordered my legs broken, leaving me a helpless, shattered mess.
Thrown into a swamp to die, betrayed by everyone I loved, a cold rage ignited in me.
They destroyed my body, my spirit, my life, but they made one fatal mistake: they left me breathing.
Now, all that pain, all that fury, has become something more.
And I' m coming back for every single one of them. The Pop-Up Truth
Young Adult My phone screen lit up, not with a text, but a stark, black-and-white pop-up.
"Ethan' s SAT scores: 1580. Stanford bound with Tiffany. You' re the 'just in case' girl."
Just moments earlier, my childhood crush Ethan, whose father my own dad died saving, feigned despair over "disastrous" SAT scores.
He'd gently coerced me, the valedictorian, to give up my dream school for State College, all for "us."
These mysterious pop-ups, visible only to me, had always been unsettlingly, terrifyingly right.
This one revealed his calculated deception: he'd aced his SATs and was going to Stanford with his new girlfriend, Tiffany.
My heart turned to ice. I was his backup plan, a discarded pawn.
The betrayal escalated at his lavish graduation party where he publicly humiliated me, painting my sacrifice as my idea.
Then, with Tiffany's cruel suggestion, he trapped and locked me in a dark utility closet.
The final blow: he brazenly showed my ailing mom a faked State acceptance letter, causing her to suffer a heart attack.
As I sat by her hospital bed, watching her struggle for breath, a cold rage ignited.
How could the boy whose family owed us everything be capable of such cruel manipulation?
My dad died for his. Why was I his pawn? What were these pop-ups?
But in that sterile room, watching his continued charade, something inside me snapped.
I slapped him, hard.
No longer a confused victim, I saw him for what he was: a manipulative abuser.
This wasn't the end of my story.
This was the beginning of my fight to reclaim it. The Quiet Force's Reckoning
Modern My life revolved around AuraStream, the tech company I co-founded with my wife, Olivia, where I was the quiet force behind the scenes.
Our shared tradition: Olivia, the CEO, would dedicate the prestigious Innovator's Chalice to me, acknowledging our joint vision, every single year.
But this year, the gala lights felt cold as she announced the award was for "fresh perspective," for Noah Evans, a junior marketing intern.
My gut twisted as Noah immediately plastered photos of Olivia, the chalice, and himself across Instagram, celebrating "my CEO' s belief in my vision."
The public humiliation escalated as Olivia showered Noah with a luxury company car for organizing pizza lunches, promoted him to "Special Projects Coordinator" over qualified veterans, and dismissed my team' s concerns about his incompetence.
I watched, baffled, as she defended him and told me to "get my people in line" when he actively stole our ideas.
The ultimate betrayal struck on the launch day of our flagship platform, Phoenix, when Olivia skipped out, claiming a "crucial partner meeting."
Instead, I saw Noah' s Instagram post: poolside at a luxury resort, clinking champagne flutes with Olivia, who was conspicuously wearing the custom white gold watch I' d given her – the one with our entwined initials.
How could she so openly flaunt her favoritism, her affair, and our shattered trust, using a symbol of our marriage to mock me?
As the pieces clicked into place, a cold, unyielding resolve settled deep within me.
She broke it all, and now, it was my turn to show her the true meaning of consequences. His Perfect Prey: Her Reckoning
Modern I was Sarah Miller, a senior marketing manager, fiercely independent, building a life I was proud of.
My husband, Mark, constantly praised my strength, publicly toasting "To Sarah, the most incredible woman!"
I poured everything-my salary, my energy-into our home, our son Leo, and his expensive private school, believing I was crafting our shared future on my terms.
But at the annual charity gala, my company card-used for "shared" household expenses because Mark' s were always mysteriously maxed out-was humiliatingly declined.
Not once, but twice. A small, apologetic frown from the attendant confirmed the impossible: "I'm sorry, Ms. Miller, it's declined."
Red-faced, I called Mark.
"That five bucks in there is for my coffee," he sneered about the account holding my six-figure salary.
Later, I discovered his Venmo: thousands transferred to a "Tiffany Evans."
"Rent Support." "Shopping Spree." "Car Down Payment - BMW." His so-called "niece."
Her Instagram, however, tagged "My amazing man" and flaunted new designer bags and a shiny BMW: #BestBoyfriend.
My world shattered.
Was my entire self-made independence just a facade, meticulously used to fund his secret life with another woman? The betrayal felt like a lead weight in my chest.
That crushing realization was the final straw.
So, when my chauvinistic boss brazenly took credit for my latest multi-million-dollar campaign, something snapped.
"Actually, Chad," I declared, my voice steady, "that' s my campaign. I quit."
Then, the words of liberation: "My dad' s monthly allowance to me in college was more than your annual salary."
The time for Sarah Miller, the naive workhorse, was over. The time for Sarah Harrison had begun. Chasing The Star He Lost
Romance Everyone knew Ava Chen was just keeping Dr. Julian Vance' s spot warm.
He, a brilliant Columbia astrophysicist; I, a New York financial analyst.
We were dating, but his great love, my former best friend Chloe, was merely on fellowship, her return an unspoken ticking clock.
The clock exploded the day Julian stood me up at City Hall for our marriage license.
An Instagram story appeared instead: Julian, smiling, at Chloe' s surprise welcome-back party.
My heart didn' t just break; it fractured into a dull, final ache.
I shredded the marriage application.
Later, Chloe brought a drunken Julian to my apartment, his subtle taunts confirming my place.
He then whispered it: "Chloe." The ultimate affront.
His cold, indifferent "Take the pill" solidified our transactional reality.
I was a placeholder. My deep love unrequited, our relationship a cruel joke of neglect and manipulation.
Why did I cling to a love that never truly saw me?
But my tears turned to cold fury.
I canceled wedding leave, applied for a senior analyst role in London.
I would shed the "placeholder" and forge a fierce new beginning, on my own terms. You might like
I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Jessica C. Dolan Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he's not letting me go. Marrying My Runaway Groom's Powerful Father
Temple Madison I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires.
Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world.
My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets.
I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her.
The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money.
I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table.
"Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead." The Sterling Scandal: Married To The Uncle
C.D I was at my own engagement party at the Sterling estate when the world started tilting. Victoria Sterling, my future mother-in-law, smiled coldly as she watched me struggle with a cup of tea that had been drugged to ruin me.
Before I could find my fiancé, Ryan, a waiter dragged me into the forbidden West Wing and locked me in a room with Julian Sterling, the family’s "fallen titan" who had been confined to a wheelchair for years.
The door burst open to a frenzy of camera flashes and theatrical screams. Victoria framed me as a seductress caught in the act, and Ryan didn't even try to listen to my pleas, calling me "cheap leftovers" before walking away with his pregnant mistress. When I turned to my own family for help, my father signed a document severing our relationship for a five-million-dollar payout from Julian. They traded me like a commodity without a second thought.
I didn't understand why my own parents were so eager to sell me, or how Ryan could look at me with such disgust after promising me forever. I was a sacrifice, a pawn used to protect the family's offshore accounts, and I couldn't fathom how every person I loved had a price tag for my destruction.
With nowhere left to go, I married Julian in a bleak ceremony at City Hall. He slid a heavy diamond onto my finger and whispered, "We have a war to start." That night, inside his secret penthouse, I watched the paralyzed man stand up from his wheelchair and activate a screen filled with the Sterling family's darkest secrets. The execution had officially begun. SCORNED EX WIFE : Queen Of Ashes

Ray Nhedicta "Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable.
Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it.
"We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not."
Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child.
"The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs."
A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life"
"Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit.
................

Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead.

Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal:
Marry for vengeance.
Crush their fathers' legacies.
Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything.
Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?
