Acılı karanlık bir geçmiş tarafından avlanan, partneri tarafından reddedilen ve tekrar incitilen bir kadın. Yaşayan ama hayatın tadını asla çıkaramayan bir yürüyen ölü gibiydi. Karanlık ve acı içinde boğuluyordu. Her zamanki gibi nefessiz kaldığında, komşu ırkın alfasının hayatına girdiğini ve yaşamına ışık getirdiğini gördü. O onun kurtarıcısı mıydı? Birçok şey belirsizken, bildiği bir şey vardı ki o da onu "eş" olarak çağırdığında hayatının altüst olacağıydı. Reddedilen dişi kurt başka bir alfa eş mi buldu? Bu bir nimet mi yoksa lanet mi? "Üç yıl önce Tristan Flynn ile evlendiğinden beri, Esther White hem yatakta hem de hayatta sadık bir eş olmuştu. Şefkatiyle Tristan'ın kalbini eritebileceği naif düşüncesini taşıyordu. Sonraları, buzulları eritmenin bile Tristan'ı harekete geçirmekten daha kolay olduğunu fark etti. Üç yıllık evlilik süresince Tristan, eşi Esther'i tanımlamak için iki kelime kullanabileceğine inanıyordu: sıkıcı ve etkileyici olmayan. Yine de, Flynn Group'un yıldönümünde ona boşanma kağıtlarını fırlatarak onu kamuoyu önünde küçük düşürmeye cesaret etti. Kırmızı elbisesiyle sakin ve zarif görünen Esther'e baktı ve gözlerini kıstı. Herkes Tristan ve Esther'in boşandıktan sonra hiçbir temasları olmayacağını düşünüyordu ve hatta Esther de bunun istisnası değildi. Daha sonra, Tristan bir ödül töreninde Esther'e en iyi senaryo ödülünü takdim edecekti. Esther'e ödülü verdikten sonra, zarif ve soğuk Tristan aniden kalabalığın önünde boyun eğerek yalvardı: "Esther, seni geçmişte takdir etmemek benim hatamdı. Sevgini kazanmak için bana ikinci bir şans verebilir misin?" Esther, Tristan'a parlak, mesafeli bir gülümsemeyle baktı. "Üzgünüm, Bay Flynn. Şu anda tek umursadığım şey kariyerim." Tristan, Esther'in elini çekti, gözleri hüzünle doldu. "Esther, sensiz yaşayamam." Esther soğuk bir şekilde döndü ve düşündü: "Şaka mı yapıyorsun? Neden kariyerime odaklanmak yerine bir erkekle çıkayım? Üstelik, sen benim eski kocamsın."

Carter West is a thrill-seeking, smooth-talking outlaw with a knack for trouble. What was supposed to be a simple joyride turns into a high-octane nightmare when he accidentally steals a prototype supercar that contains classified government tech. The car, equipped with an AI named Elle, is not only loaded with next-gen weaponry but also happens to be the key to an international conspiracy that could shake the foundations of the world. Now, with the FBI, an underground crime syndicate, and a group of mysterious rogue agents hot on his tail, Carter finds himself stuck in the wildest ride of his life. Alongside Elle, whose snarky wit rivals his own, Carter must pull off impossible heists, outsmart his enemies, and stay alive long enough to unravel the conspiracy. As Carter and Elle form an unlikely partnership, sparks start to fly with a former intelligence agent, Maya, who’s as dangerous as she is beautiful. Forced to rely on each other, they must navigate high-speed chases, daring thefts, and a race against time. With enemies at every turn and a hidden plot threatening global chaos, Carter will have to decide between saving his skin or playing the hero for once in his life—if only Elle would stop being so sarcastic for just five minutes.

Before Feng Yi ascended the throne, no one wanted to marry this prince who lacked presence and was out of favor. After his ascension, the harem was filled with the daughters of high-ranking court officials. They were an eyesore to look at and vexing to deal with. He felt that even favoring them would defile his own dragon body. He decided to choose a woman with a fiery, arrogant, domineering, and jealous nature to enter the palace, to cast all this "trash" into the Cold Palace on his behalf. Song Yunzhao had transmigrated to ancient times for fourteen years, all the while laying low and just trying to get by. She was just waiting for the plot to begin, then she would transform into a villainess—arrogant, domineering, fiery, and jealous—so that she would be rejected from the selection and could then choose a husband to live a carefree and happy life with. Later, Song Yunzhao watched as His Majesty smiled at her with immense indulgence and said, "Zhaozhao, come here." Song Yunzhao immediately felt that something was terribly wrong, a chill running up from the soles of her feet. The damned Emperor wore a gentle expression, but his eyes were as cold as ice; he clearly wanted to use her as his blade!
