Everyone secretly jokei that Master Mo’s wife is an ignorant and incompetent little tyrant. Bad at her studies? Lu Mian emergei as the top student for science at her college entrance examination.

They take the stage and succeed as the organization’s Chief and Deputy Chief, respectively. The Deputy Chief beside me looks like my wife. This is Xiao Qimo’s thought. The Chief looks like someone I know. Lu Mian is thinking the same thing, too. Soon, the newly appointed Chief is seen blocking his deputy at the ladies’ room. What happens when two strong and uncorrupted individuals fall for each other?

I thought the masked stranger who fathered my son was a ghost of one reckless night. Then I walked into my new boss's office—and those ice-blue eyes found mine across the boardroom. Ivy Brooks only saw him once. One night. One mask. One underground auction that cost her everything—and gave her a son she'd die to protect. She never knew his name. Never saw his face. All she had were those piercing eyes behind black silk, a voice like gravel and velvet, and a secret she buried so deep she almost forgot it was there. For five years, she rebuilt her life from nothing—betrayed by her ex, abandoned by her family, raising her boy on stolen hours and stubborn hope. When she finally lands a legitimate job as Executive Assistant at Thorne Group, she thinks she's finally safe. Then she meets her new boss. Caleb Thorne. Billionaire CEO in a tailored suit. Don of the Thorne Syndicate in the shadows. A man who wears a different mask for every room he walks into—and the one who's been hunting her for five years. He doesn't recognize her face. But her eyes? Her scent? The way she flinches when he steps too close? He knows. And now that she's standing in his office—exposed, cornered, and carrying his secret—Caleb won't let her hide behind any mask. Not her professional armor. Not her single-mother walls. Not the lies that have kept them apart. He'll strip every layer until there's nothing left between them but skin, truth, and a fire neither of them ever put out.

Eve nunca creyó en el destino... hasta que tres alfas despiadados la reclamaron como suya. Desesperada por salvar a su madre moribunda, Eve trabaja como bailarina enmascarada en el Eclipse, el club más exclusivo de la ciudad, donde el anonimato es su única protección. Cuando los infames trillizos Blackwood —Damian, Damon y Silas— le ofrecen una cantidad obscena de dinero por un contrato exclusivo de seis meses, ella acepta a pesar de los aterradores rumores. Las chicas susurran sobre su brutalidad, sus apetitos insaciables y la forma en que lo comparten todo... incluidas las mujeres. La primera noche, Eve descubre que los rumores no les hacen justicia. Damian domina su cuerpo con fría precisión, cada toque calculado para derribar sus defensas. La peligrosa jovialidad de Damon la empuja más allá de los límites que no sabía que tenía, haciéndola anhelar el filo del miedo y el placer. Silas la observa con una intensidad obsesiva, aprendiendo cada temblor y jadeo, exigiendo una rendición psicológica total. Juntos, la abruman... tres depredadores reclamando a su presa de la manera más primitiva posible. Pero hay algo diferente en Eve. Mientras que otras mujeres se quiebran bajo los oscuros deseos de los hermanos, ella resiste. Iguala su intensidad, anhela su brutalidad y regresa noche tras noche hambrienta de más. Son posesivos de maneras que deberían aterrorizarla, marcando su cuerpo como su territorio, pero su piel arde más bajo sus manos que nunca antes. Los hermanos no entienden por qué no pueden mantenerse alejados de ella. Por qué su aroma los lleva al borde de la locura. Por qué el vínculo de pareja... algo que nunca creyeron que encontrarían... los atrae hacia esta humana enmascarada con una fuerza creciente e innegable. Entonces el cuerpo de Eve comienza a cambiar. Después de tres días sin ellos, se derrumba, su cuerpo se apaga por un hambre que ninguna comida puede satisfacer. Cuando Damian toca su piel febril, sus ojos brillan de color ámbar y un antiguo hechizo de unión se hace añicos. La verdad explota entre ellos en una ola de necesidad desesperada y consumidora: Eve no es humana. Es un súcubo, una criatura que se alimenta de energía sexual para sobrevivir. Y ellos son sus parejas predestinadas. De repente, las visitas nocturnas de Eve se convierten en su salvavidas. Los necesita... necesita su tacto, su dominio, su deseo insaciable... o morirá.

When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith, the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancée with another woman.

But can a devil learn to love again… Or will his past drag them both into hell?

The warmth of the sunlight that was shining through the window landed on the girl's flawless face. Her eyelashes fluttered rapidly as her hands clenched onto her blanket tightly. She chanted, "No! No! Don't.. please.. I beg you stop! Ahh!!" She gasped for breath as she wiped the layer of cold sweat off her forehead. She looked at her phone and laid in bed after realizing that she was in her apartment. 'I'm safe.. it's alright.. safe..' After calming down, she took a quick shower and looked into the mirror. "Yang Ya Nuo! you got this! New day, new beginning!" She got dressed in a male school uniform and applied her makeup and wig. Within the next 15 minutes, her beautiful jade like face transformed into a handsome young man's face. "Aha! That should do it! Handsome like always. Breakfast time~" Since young, Ya Nuo learned how to change her voice to sound like a male's voice in case she needed it one day. Unlike girls at her age who liked to hang out with friends and go shopping, she only loves one thing, food! She works three part time jobs and is attending a famous school on a scholarship that covers full tuition. She cheerfully walked to the kitchen to see what's there to make for breakfast. When she opened the fridge, she saw nothing, but a piece of sausage inside. Sigh.. "I paid for rent and ran out of money to restock for grocery." Ding Dong "Who is it?" she said in a grumpy tone. "Yo!" Xu Huan Hei greeted her with a hand wave. "Is it time already? There's still half an hour before the usual time you come to get me for school." "Nope! But I do have something I want to discuss with you." he smiled dazzlingly. He was the school's second most popular guy that every female wished to date. The number one ranked male student was Ya Nuo. These two met each other at a young age, but due to some reason Huan Hei never found out about her female gender. "I'm hungry. Let's talk food first." "Here~ i already prepared a bag of groceries and two bacon, egg, and sausage for you" he winked. Ya Nuo smirked, "Oh? Seems like it's something important hmm? Alright, let me enjoy my breakfast as we discuss your 'favor.'" In the middle of enjoying her bacon, egg, and sausage, she suddenly spit out the mouthful of food onto Huan Hei. "will you be my girlfriend?" he asked confidently. "Are you crazy?? I'm a guy! 100% male!" "But you are so pretty, even girls say you have feminine features. I'm sure with a little makeup you'll look very cute!" "... what's your reason?" "A girl keeps pestering me and chasing after me to get into a relationship with her. I told her for the past two years that I'm not interested in any relationships, but she refused to listen. I accidentally slipped out and said I actually have a girlfriend... so she asked to meet her.. and I didn't have anyone that is trustworthy enough for this job." "No." "Pretty please" "No!" "Come on~ I'll buy you lunch~" "I'm not that cheap." "Fine, 3 months worth of lunch and groceries!" "Deal." In the meantime, at a luxurious restaurant, a man with gray hair sipped his wine, "Did you guys find her yet?" "No.. sir" "Then why are you here? Go! Find her and bring her here! Don't come back and report bullshit to me!" "Yes!" *THERE IS NO RAPE OR ANY SEXUAL ASSAULT IN THIS NOVEL. BUT WARNING OF 18+ CONTENT* The book cover is not mine, credits go to the original author.
