He's the wealthy and handsome owner of Xander's Jewels, and a member of the prestigious Cena family, owners of a precious stones mining company and many other highbrow companies. Her life becomes intertwined with loads of actions, unseen and unexpected twists, turns of adventures, and a whole lot of romance to discover love.

Chapter 1 Prologue

"Mr. Fraser, to be straightforward, I am not interested in pursuing a romantic relationship with you or anyone else. Let's move on and not waste any more of our time on this topic." The words hung in the air as the young man sitting across from her shifted in his seat, clearly feeling awkward and embarrassed.

"Wow!" He exclaimed, still taken aback by her directness and her composed demeanor afterwards.

Within just a few minutes of meeting her blind date, Camilla swiftly and decisively turned him down without hesitation.

The 29-year-old fashion designer entrepreneur looked impeccable in a stunning emerald pantsuit,with matching heels that accentuated her legs. Her blonde hair was pulled back into a sleek ponytail, and a pair of diamond stud earrings added a touch of luxury to her look.

Despite the casual nature of the date, she seemed to be dressed for a business meeting rather than a romantic evening.

"Miss Kings," the young man sitting across from her began, making a deliberate effort to establish eye contact as he spoke.

He spoke with conviction, his dark brown eyes shining with determination." I understand that you may not be interested in dating right now, but I have to tell you, I've already fallen for you."

"I promise that if you give me a chance, I'll do everything in my power to make you happy." He waited patiently for her response.

"Thank you for your kind words, but I firmly believe that I don't need a romantic partner to experience happiness," she said, rising from her seat.

With a polite and cordial tone, she said, "It was nice meeting you, Mr. Fraser. I must take my leave now." She said, before turning and walking away, leaving the young man staring in shock after her receding figure.

As soon as she settled into the plush interior of her Bentley Mulliner Batur car, she released a deep sigh of relief. It wasn't long before her phone buzzed to life, and she winced as her mother's voice, practically shrieking, filled her ears as she answered the call.

"Camilla!.... John Fraser just called to tell me that you blew him off on your date." Her tone showed that she was very annoyed.

"For goodness sake Bambina (Baby) this is your thirty-seventh date already!" Her voice growing more agitated.

"Exactly Mama..." Camilla sighed in response to the incessant voice.

"Look I understand that you and Nonna want to see me in a relationship, but I have told you multiple times that I am not ready for one," Camilla said, sighing.

"Continuing to set me up on these dates is pointless and I wish you would stop." She stated firmly and paused before continuing, anticipating her mother's counterargument.

"I need to run and pick up some things from the office before heading home. Ti amor,(I love you)." Camilla said swiftly and disconnected the call, not wanting to engage in another conversation about settling down.

She started the engine, and drove out of the parking lot.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

Phoenix Rising: The Scarred Heiress's Revenge

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.
