Resumen

They say marriage is one of the greatest joys you’ll experience in life, but what does it say about your marriage when you can’t remember a single moment with the man you married? Veronica experiences the strangest thing one day when she wakes up in a hospital room without any memory of how she got there. She is introduced to her family who appear warm and loving at first but she soon gets a glimpse of how they want to use her for her money. Veronica is then surprised when a man enters the room and it is revealed he is not only her husband but a big hotshot businessman whose face is all over the news. She doesn’t understand how she got herself tangled up with such a man and later questions the accident which led to her losing her memories. What happens when her once perfect marriage isn’t as it was portrayed to be or when she realises family doesn’t always care about you?

Chapter 1Chapter 1 - Awake

"They'll be lucky if she ever wakes up."

'Who?' Veronica questioned, awoken by an unfamiliar voice. 

"They were lucky to have found her considering the circumstances," the voice continued to speak. 

Why wasn't it answering her question?

Veronica's surroundings were dark, her body was weighed down by something, and there was a burning sensation when she opened her mouth to attempt to ask where she was.

Veronica felt compelled to scream, but her screams were muffled as something entered her lips, causing her to choke. Her nose filled with a liquid, affecting her breathing. 

There was an unending sensation of falling as if there was something other than the weight of her body dragging her down to an unknown place. 

On the verge of no longer being able to take the strange pain, Veronica gasped, her eyes opening to the sight of a white roof above her and a beeping noise that added to her confusion. 

Her hands unknowingly gripped white sheets as there was unexplainable fear that came over her from what she experienced. 

"Where," her voice was weak, needing water to quench her thirst yet water seemed to be the very thing behind the horror she experienced. 

Veronica heard movement in the room and turned her head to the right, finding a small woman in a uniform not far from where she lay. "Where am I?" 

"Oh dear!" The nurse exclaimed, startled by Veronica's voice. "You are awake. Try not to move around so much. I need to get the doctor."

Veronica watched as the nurse rushed to the door and let someone in. She wanted water first and to be told where she was now. Why was her body so tired and hurt like someone had beaten her?

A couple Veronica did not recognise entered the room with a young woman behind them.

"So it's true. You're awake. Didn't they say you wouldn't?"

Veronica failed to notice the disappointment in their crude remarks. She just wanted to know where she was. "Where am I?"

 

Evelyn Harper, Veronica's mother, rolled her eyes. "Well, obviously you are in a hospital. Where did you think we would send you once you were found? Honestly, all this ruckus just because you're awake. Well, are you going to yell at us again? Belittle us?"

Veronica frowned, taken aback by the hostility. "Who are you?"

Evelyn gripped the rail at the bottom of the bed. This has to be some kind of joke. The world wouldn't be so kind as to wipe her daughter's memories. 

Evelyn smiled, her world now better with this. "Veronica, who else would I be? Do you not recognise us, at all?" As she watched Veronica shake her head, she smiled. This was a solution to her problem! "I'm your mother. You had us worried sick."

"Your father," Evelyn pulled her husband forward. "Hasn't gotten any rest since the news."

"Mother," Veronica muttered, the word felt strange as it left her lips. Veronica raised her hand to touch her forehead. "I don't know," she stopped, puzzled by the ring on her finger. "I am married?"

 

"No," A young woman approached her, taking Veronica's hand to slide the ring off of her finger. "That is nothing."

 

Veronica didn't think it was just nothing since it looked like a wedding ring. "It looks like-"

 

"It is nothing. Veronica," Beth Harper said, taking a seat on the bed. "You should relax and worry about the little things. You were in an accident. You must be confused now."

 

Veronica looked around, slowly realising she was in a hospital room. The nurse from before was standing close by. "What accident?"

 

Beth placed the diamond ring on her finger. At last, it was where it should have been. "You fell off of a yacht. Do you not remember anything or are you trying to fool us?"

 

"Fool you? I don't even know who you are," Veronica said, touching her head. There was a pounding pain like she had hit her head against something.

 

Everything about the position she was in now was terrifying. To look her parents in the eye and not find a single memory of them.

 

Veronica turned her attention to Beth who was enjoying the ring on her finger. Didn't it belong to her since it was on her finger? Though her memories were missing, she knew that ring was a wedding ring.

 

"Is it your ring?"

 

"It is," Beth answered, hiding her hands behind her back. "You do not believe me?"

 

"Then why was it on my finger?" Veronica asked.

 

Beth smiled while her anger remained well hidden. "You liked how it looked so I lent it to you. Since you don't need it anymore… I think it's only right that I take it back."

 

Veronica looked to her mother for help since it wasn't making any sense. "Isn't it my-"

 

"Why are you fretting over a ring that does not belong to you when you are in this state? It belonged to Beth. Just let it go," Evelyn urged Veronica. It was always meant to go to Beth but Veronica being the little vixen that she was, took it away.

 

They had more urgent matters to take care of before he arrived.

 

Evelyn lifted Beth's hand to see the ring. "It looks perfect on you. We need to get it resized to fit your finger."

 

"No, I want to leave it as it is," Beth said, finding it to be perfect. She could ignore that it was a little tight on her hands.

Veronica found herself to be a stranger in the room. Her mother was more interested in Beth, for reasons she could not understand. 

 

Veronica didn't want to keep them here when they were unhappy. "Then, you and my sister-"

 

"Sister? Ha," Beth snorted. "You have lost your memories. I am not your sister. I am your cousin but I do find it flattering that you would think of me as your sister."

 

Evelyn was ready to leave but first, she needed Veronica to sign something. "Dear-"

 

The doors swung wide open, startling everyone inside the room.

 

Veronica noticed a shift in the room. She noticed how shaken her family looked by the sudden arrival of a man. He was accompanied by two others in black suits. His cold stare sent a shiver down her spine.

 

Was her family in trouble? Was she in trouble?

 

Veronica panicked when his gaze fell on her. She was about to reach for something to defend herself when she noticed his gaze soften. It seemed like he was happy to see her awake.

 

"Veronica," he said, the very name she had heard from the others.

 

He knew her but how? Why was there suddenly so much tension?

 

Veronica leaned back on the bed as he neared her. She moved her left hand away just before he could touch her.

 

Liam Sterling didn't understand why she shrunk away from his touch. She didn't know how many sleepless nights he'd endured after he found out she was unconscious in the hospital. How much he feared that he would not be able to see her beautiful eyes open again.

 

Liam had many questions about Veronica's state, but first, he had to deal with the fools who came here to play pretend.

 

The doctor entered the room at the perfect time to answer his question.

 

"I paid a hefty sum to keep her away from prying eyes, did I not?" Liam asked, turning to the doctor and hospital staff that followed in.

 

"You did, Mr. Sterling."

 

"So what are these three doing here? Did I not give specific instructions that only doctors, nurses, or myself were allowed to enter? Perhaps it's time for me to invest my money elsewhere," Liam threatened.

 

Veronica's family were the last people Liam wanted her to see when she woke up. She wouldn't be pleased to see them and her parents knew it.

 

Beth stepped forward, hoping to mediate the situation, "We're here because we care about Veronica. We shouldn't argue like this, especially since she's lost her memories."

 

"Come now, Liam. This is still my daughter," Evelyn said as she went to the other side of Veronica's bed. She held onto Veronica's hand, refusing to let go. She didn't want Liam to get between them again. "I have a right to be here."

 

Liam would let her stay if she had shown interest in getting Veronica the room she needed and not made the first call about whether Veronica had died as the news had spread. "My wife only needs me now."

 

Veronica widened her eyes in shock. It was a wedding ring after all! 

What was more shocking than that was that this man named Liam was her husband! How could she forget? How did they get married and why was he so cold to her family?

 

'Why did they lie?' Veronica wondered, glancing at Beth who continued to hide the ring.

 

No one else tried to clarify anything. Their behaviour only raised more questions.

 

"Can all of you stop arguing and just tell me what's going on? I have no memories of any of you and it's… it's scaring me," Veronica said, her voice quivering.

 

So far, she didn't know who to trust to tell her the truth about what happened before she woke up in the hospital. 

 

Veronica looked at the man who claimed to be her husband. He was cold and frightening. How much did he pay for her to be in this large hospital room, cared for privately by doctors and nurses?

 

Who exactly did she marry?

Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband

After Lin Xu died, she discovered that the world she was in was a novel. Her eldest son liked to imprison the female protagonist of the novel, engaging in sinister villainous acts with a dark room play. Her youngest son would unfailingly draw substitute's blood and snatch substitutes' kidneys for the female protagonist’s legal antagonist — his unrequited love. Her only daughter was the romantic fool forever revolving around the male protagonist of the novel. If children are not disciplined, the mother is to blame. After being reborn, Lin Xu felt she should step in and discipline her wayward children. However, before she could take action, her eldest son’s dark, handsome, and usually cold face blushed slightly as he asked in a low voice, “Can I touch my head?” The middle son snorted and turned his head, his tone petulant, “I... I don’t want to go home, but if you insist, I'll do it begrudgingly.” The youngest daughter rushed over, mercilessly pushing her brothers aside, “Mom, come and teach me how to solve this problem~” Latter, both sons fought over the bowl of noodles Lin Xu cooked. What was a novel’s female protagonist? Nothing compared to their mother. The daughter transformed herself, letting nothing from any novel’s male protagonist interfere with her studies! The family was blissfully happy. Latter, the revived, amnesiac husband suddenly appeared, cornering her against the wall, his eyes full of struggle, “Even if you're married, I still love you.” Lin Xu pretended to be serious, “Is that so, then what should we do?” He hugged her tightly, his voice muffled and pained, “Divorce him!” Lin Xu chuckled secretly, “I’ll divorce him right away.” Latter, after the husband regained his memory, he said through gritted teeth, “Over my dead body will we divorce!”

As she manages this betrayal, she discovers a deep ploy to hinder her from claiming her rightful inheritance. Devastated but determined, Nora takes a daring step to regain control of her life. Enter Demetri 'The Demon' to those who know him, a formidable man barely known to her, who offers her protection and support in return for a contract marriage to satisfy him. In a twist of fate, Nora marries Demetri to claim her inheritance and fight those who plotted against her. But as she battles her own family and Demetri's many rivals, will she be able to keep from falling for the man known to crush people beneath his booted heel. Excerpt: She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him. Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights. Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife." She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions." Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them. "Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb." "Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her? "It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued. "Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning? Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality. But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."

His Naughty Lessons

[ Caution: High Heat Advisory ] “Harper, stop undressing me with your eyes. The plot isn’t going that way… YET.” Harper McKenzie, a newbie web novel author, has a problem — she struggles with romance scenes. As someone with almost nonexistent real-life experience in the matter, she can’t get the intimate chemistry right, and those chapters always come out dry and cringy. Fortunately for her, Harper finds a freelance editor willing to workshop her writing. But the surprise? That editor turns out to be her childhood friend and the very first crush of her life. What happens now when he offers her personal lessons on how to write the hottest romance … and love scenes? -------------- Note: this is a fun, cozy, sweet story with a low-drama plot. No love triangles, no misunderstandings, no memory loss / car accidents / terminal illnesses / etc.. Mature content abounds, starting out soft but heats up quickly. You’ve been warned! -------------- Sneak Peek: He slid her bra over her shoulders and, with impossibly quick and skilled work, tied the lacy garment around her wrists. “Spread your legs wider,” he ordered. Harper’s already faltering heartbeat faltered some more. The command in his tone was foreign, but it crashed over her like a heat wave, and even though she could barely begin to picture how salacious she must look, with her hands bound and thighs spread wide like an offering to be ravished, she could feel the scorching need coiling hotter and hotter in her core. Her body obeyed eagerly on its own accord, bringing herself fully open just like she was told. Eli grinned. Moving between her legs, he trailed hot kisses along her inner thigh, leaving sizzling little fires crackling in its wake. “Good girl. Now, what should your character say next?” A finger glided over her wet and wanting flesh in a slippery stroke, making her heart slam to a hard stop as a moan tore free. “Write the next line for me, what should I say before I unravel you with my tongue and make you scream my name?”
