Arlan's gaze darkened with hatred. “If I knew I was betrothed to you, I would have killed myself before you even killed me!” Oriana mirrored the same emotions as him. He pulled out a dagger and offered it to her. “It’s not too late. Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.” She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?” “Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.” Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment, blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel. “You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse. He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.” She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?” “Guess?” ----- Instagram- mynovel.20 Facebook- Author mynoveltwenty

[Mature Content: NO RAPE] Let’s make a deal! “Two months, if we can survive each other in the period of two months, I will marry you without objection!” … Twenty-two-year-old Evelyn Darkwood never imagined that going to her late father’s will-reading would have resulted in a rivalry between her and her siblings. That they would become a danger to her—one who sought after her life.  She never thought that her life would take such a twisted turn so quickly. And what’s worse, she comes to find out that she’d been betrothed to a man she didn’t know and had never met.  Zayne Mancini. The wealthiest man. A man whose power and fame were no joke. A man who possibly could be the only one capable of protecting her.  Strong, cold, frightening, all this he was and despite the danger written all over him, Evelyn felt a strange connection, hot and burning.  Zayne Mancini wanted her—his betrothed (a human who was his mate) and he was going to make her his, no matter how stubborn she wanted to be about it.  Fascinating, thrilling, all this she was to him—like a spark to ignite his boring life. Evelyn Darkwood was a whole package that he was slowly going to bring undone.  A woman he wouldn’t think twice of burning the world for. A woman he would give his whole being to. All she had to say was, “I do”

I stood in the quiet of the drawing room, fists clenched. “Adrian… you have no idea what you’ve done. You walk back into my life after all these years, and everything I planned—my independence, my future—it’s on the line because of you.” He took a slow step toward me, his expression unreadable. “Evelyn… I didn’t come back to disrupt your life. I came back because I couldn’t stay away. Because I couldn’t stop thinking about you.” I let out a bitter laugh, shaking my head. “You couldn’t stay away? You were promised to her—Miranda. To my sister. And yet here you are, acting like the world revolves around your feelings, ignoring mine.” “I never ignored you,” he said quietly, his eyes searching mine. “I just… I couldn’t control it. Even then, even as a boy, I wanted to protect you. And I still do.” “Protect me?” I echoed, my voice rising. “Do you know what protection cost me? Years of being overlooked, underestimated, treated like I didn’t exist? I worked my whole life to plan my escape, to make something of myself on my own terms—and now you’re here, threatening it all.” He hesitated, then stepped closer, his voice low but earnest. “I don’t care about promises, Evelyn. I’ve always cared about you. And I’ll do whatever it takes… even if it means standing against my own family.” I shook my head, forcing back the anger and the heat that flared within me. “I don’t need your promises, Adrian. I don’t need your protection. I need my life. I need my freedom. And I refuse to let anyone, not even you, dictate it for me.” His jaw tightened, and for the first time, I saw uncertainty flicker in his eyes. “Evelyn…” “This isn’t about what you want,” I said firmly, stepping back and holding his gaze. “This is about me. About my future. And I’ve made my choice. You will have to respect it—or step aside.” A tense silence fell between us, heavy with unspoken words. And for the first time, Adrian Cross realized that I was no longer a girl to be protected. I was a woman who would fight for herself—at any cost. Evelyn Hart had spent her entire life overlooked, living in the shadow of her brilliant sister and a family that never truly believed in her. At eighteen, she planned to leave it all behind and chase her dream of becoming a model — independent, unrestrained, and in control of her own future. But fate had other plans. Adrian Cross returned — the man once promised to her sister, the boy who had silently protected her all those years, and the man she could never afford to rely on. His presence threatened everything she had carefully built, stirring emotions she had long worked to suppress. Caught between family expectations, past promises, and a dangerous attraction, Evelyn must make the ultimate choice: surrender to the life everyone expects of her… or claim her independence, no matter the cost. In a world where endurance meets courage, she will discover that true power lies not in being loved, but in standing alone.
