For everyone, Kyle Cyrus is annoying with questionable humor but behind all this facade of a man without problems hides a soul in need of affection. His meeting with Roxana Is perhaps the cure for his loneliness.

Chapter 1 1

Kyle sighed lightly and poured himself a drink. He could be funny in front of everyone, make dubious jokes, be the womanizer that everyone knew, but once alone, locked in his apartment in the middle of nowhere, he became himself again . He was this Kyle who was so fragile and so alone who needed attention. He hated his life, this life which forced him every day to be what he was not during the day and to become again what he was in the coldness of his apartment. He walked towards the bay windows and encountered only vegetation, no soul living nearby.

Kyle had always led this lone wolf life, he liked to be alone without company, without anyone to dictate his behavior. He aspired to something whose exact definition he himself did not know, perhaps what his friend Alexander was experiencing. His phone rang, interrupting his thoughts.

- Justin, what a pleasure to hear you.

His friend huffed on the other end of the line. His friends tended to get annoyed by his behavior without knowing that it was the only way for him to forget his sad life. Not that Kyle lacked financial means, he was an excellent lawyer and was the head of a large law firm and owned several other businesses, Kyle had no one to share everything he owned with. Justin had his nanny and also her son. As for Alexander, he had his cousin and now his wife and two children. And Kyle didn't have anyone, it's true his friends were there for him but they had their own lives.

- Kyle, are you there? his friend asked him.

He sighed.

- Yes, I'm here Justin, I'm listening to you.

He walked over to the Couch and sat down. He was the lawyer for his two best friends and he was the one who handled their cases.

- I'm going back to New York next week, I wanted to know if everything was ready.

- Don't worry Justin, this Zack Gordon will be leaving the hotel shortly, I'll take care of it. Kyle replied, running a hand through his hair.

- Thanks Kyle, see you later.

He hung up and began to pace around his apartment, his friend had just recovered his hotel after several battles and he was responsible for putting everything back in place before his arrival. He put down his glass and headed to his room, took a shower and went to bed. The next day, he hurried to the hotel. He arrived there in a few minutes and entered the Entrance Hall. All attention was turned towards him. It must be said that Kyle loved drawing attention to himself, especially from women, but since he saw this young brunette woman everything had changed. He wanted at all costs to attract her attention but she seemed not to notice him. He rushed into the elevator hoping to meet her.

Roxana pushed her cart, wondering how long she would do this job. She had always wanted to be a doctor but life had decided otherwise, she did this job hoping to save money to take courses. She was heading towards one of the rooms when the elevator opened to reveal someone she didn't want to see all day.

"Not him," she whispered.

- I heard you, replied Kyle, approaching her in a nonchalant manner.

- Mr. Cyrus, what a pleasure to see you, she said ironically.

Kyle smiled widely and put his hands in his pockets.

- Usually I'm the one who gets ironic but you have to do it once. My tender and sweet Roxana , I am happy to see you this morning and it is sincere.

She rolled her eyes. It's true that he didn't have a good reputation, he was known to be an inveterate seducer.

- Sorry but no one is working, she said before grabbing her cart ready to leave.

But Kyle holds her by the arm.

"You know my invitation to dinner still stands," he whispered hoarsely.

- I am..

- Kyle my darling, finally I found you, I looked for you everywhere, called out a blonde.

Roxana took the opportunity to slip away. How annoying he was, always in the company of young women, each one more false than the last. She wondered what he found in them. For some reason this exasperated him .

- What do you want Trish.

She approached him and gave him a kiss on the mouth but he slowly pushed her away.

- Listen Trish I appreciate this time we spent together but it's time to say goodbye. He told him.

She suddenly became hysterical.

- You mean it's over? You're dropping me like a sock, aren't you?

- I think you understood, dear, so goodbye.

He left her standing in the middle of the corridor and went looking for the beautiful Roxana .

Roxana had finished cleaning the room and decided to go get Olivia. They had been friends for two years now and were inseparable. Roxana loved him very much and it was mutual. She found her in the locker room wearing her uniform.

- Olivia, you're late.

She turned around and noticed her dark circles under her eyes. Her friend wasn't getting enough sleep because she was constantly having nightmares after what she had experienced.

- Sorry darling I forgot that you had trouble sleeping but hurry up before the snow queen finds you here. Roxana continued .

- Thank you Roxy , you are a true friend, Olivia said to her, hugging her.

She left her and left the locker room because she had a lot of things to do. She met Kyle again and as always he had his smirk on his lips.

- See you again, he said.

Roxana huffed in exasperation. He wasn't giving up on that one.

- It's rather you who follow me everywhere, she pointed out to him.

She was right, he followed her everywhere but she pushed him away and he wasn't used to being told no. The more she pushed him away, the more he was attracted to her.

- You have not always responded to my invitation, I am still waiting for the response.

- There is no other answer to give because it is always no. NO, no.

She left him there and walked away. Kyle preferred to let her go. This young woman had something different from all those he had known. He found himself liking it.

- This is what we will see dear little Roxana , This is what we will see...

"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. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. 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?

I sat in the gray, airless room of the New York State Department of Corrections, my knuckles white as the Warden delivered the news. "Parole denied." My father, Howard Sterling, had forged new evidence of financial crimes to keep me behind bars. He walked into the room, smelling of expensive cologne, and tossed a black folder onto the steel table. It was a marriage contract for Lucas Kensington, a billionaire currently lying in a vegetative state in the ICU. "Sign it. You walk out today." I laughed at the idea of being sold to a "corpse" until Howard slid a grainy photo toward me. It showed a toddler with a crescent-moon birthmark—the son Howard told me had died in an incubator five years ago. He smiled and told me the boy's safety depended entirely on my cooperation. I was thrust into the Kensington estate, where the family treated me like a "drowned rat." They dressed me in mothball-scented rags and mocked my status, unaware that I was monitoring their every move. I watched the cousin, Julian, openly waiting for Lucas to die to inherit the empire, while the doctors prepared to sign the death certificate. I didn't understand why my father would lie about my son’s death for years, or what kind of monsters would use a child as a bargaining chip. The injustice of it burned in my chest as I realized I was just a pawn in a game of old money and blood. As the monitors began to flatline and the family started to celebrate their inheritance, I locked the door and reached into the hem of my dress. I pulled out the sharpened silver wires I’d fashioned in the prison workshop. They thought they bought a submissive convict, but they actually invited "The Saint"—the world’s most dangerous underground surgeon—into their home. "Wake up, Lucas. You owe me a life." I wasn't there to be a bride; I was there to wake the dead and burn their empire to the ground.
