Heaven and Alex's story was a tale of love tested by the constraints of tradition, familial expectations, and the inexorable passage of time. It began in the grandeur of Sterling Manor, where Heaven, a beautiful maid, took up a position, unaware that her life was about to intertwine with the destiny of the Sterling family. From the moment Heaven set foot in the mansion, her path crossed with Alexander, the master of Sterling Manor. The library, a symbolic space within the mansion's opulent halls, became a backdrop to their unfolding connection. As Heaven navigated the intricacies of her role as a maid, she and Alex discovered a shared refuge in the library—a sanctuary where their hearts found solace amidst the pages of untold stories. However, their burgeoning connection faced formidable challenges. The societal norms and familial expectations that surrounded Sterling Manor sought to dictate the trajectory of Alex's life, including his choice of a future wife. Despite the obstacles, Heaven and Alex's bond deepened, transcending the boundaries of employer and employee. The story took an unexpected turn when Alex's arranged fiancée entered the mansion, bringing with her the weight of familial expectations. The other maids, fueled by jealousy, began treating Heaven unfairly due to her proximity to Alex. This created a tumultuous environment, placing strain on Heaven and Alex's budding connection. Complications arose further when Alex, drawn into familial duties, seemed to drift away from Heaven. The library, once a haven for their shared confidences, became a silent witness to the growing distance between them. The turning point came when Alex's older brother entered the scene, sparking a new, albeit complicated, connection with Heaven. As Heaven and Alex's friendship with his brother evolved, so did Heaven's determination to pursue her dreams beyond the confines of Sterling Manor. She decided to leave the mansion, saving money to finish her education, and Alex's brother offered his support in her endeavors. The narrative took a poignant turn when Heaven, realizing her aspirations, expressed her decision to leave the mansion and end her role as a maid. Alex, entangled in familial obligations and unaware of Heaven's departure, faced the haunting realization that she had left without a goodbye. The subsequent chapters unfolded with Alex grappling with the echoes of Heaven's absence. The mansion, every corner imbued with memories of their shared moments, became a haunting reminder of the love he had lost. Meanwhile, Heaven embarked on a new chapter at university, forging a path independent of the mansion's shadows. The story took a heartbreaking twist as Alex's life post-Heaven revolved around a loveless engagement and a family pushing him towards a wedding. His fiancée, feeling the impact of his emotional withdrawal, developed resentment towards Heaven. As preparations for Alex's wedding intensified, Heaven discovered the impending ceremony too late to intervene. She tried to return to Sterling Manor, seeking to reclaim what was lost, only to find that time had sealed Alex's fate with another. The chapters that followed chronicled Alex's wedding, a poignant affair filled with the echoes of unfulfilled promises. Heaven, witnessing the union from a distance, felt the shattering of her heart as she realized the permanence of their separation. As Alex's marriage unfolded, the story delved into the complexities of his life with a wife who felt unloved. The weight of familial expectations bore down on Alex, and the marriage lacked the love he had once shared with Heaven. His family, dissatisfied with the union, pressured him to consider marrying another woman to secure the family's legacy. In a pivotal chapter, Alex, for the first time in his life, stood up against his family's expectations, choosing to honor his own heart. The library, once a symbol of constraint, became a backdrop to his assertion of personal autonomy.

Aries Aime Heathcliffe. A princess from the small kingdom of Rikhill was loved by all. With her beauty that was enchantingly demure and a wise mind, she had caught a lot of attention and captured the hearts of many. One of them was the dashing crown prince of the Maganti Empire. Overcome by the desire to have her and his interest in the land of the small kingdom, the crown prince of the said empire would stop at nothing. The knights from the Maganti Empire marched across the masses and seized the four-hundred-year-old kingdom of Rikhill. The kingdom of Rikhill fell into ruin overnight.

That was when he took her to the world summit. A gathering of each sovereign from each kingdom and empire for peace talks. There, she met the emperor of Haimirich, Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth. Overwhelm by desperation, Aries begged him to take her in. It was too late when she realized that the man she asked for help was far more cruel, twisted, and downright diabolical than the crown prince for taking her as his… pet! EXCERPT: With a pair of crimson eyes hovering over her, Aries held her breath. When the corner of his lips curled up devilishly, she couldn’t react fast as he swiftly flipped their position. She only realized it when she was saddling him, gazing down at Abel, wide-eyed. “No one is above me in this empire and even out — not even the law, but look at you,” he intoned with a devilish smirk. “Staring down on me… so daunting.” Aries bit her lip, planting her palm on her inked chest. “Your Majesty…” “Do you now understand the power you hold, darling?” Abel carefully wrapped his fingers around her wrist, chuffed by her reaction. “Only you, Aries, may go above me and the only person in this world who can look down on me. No one else.” He raised an arm and ran his fingers through the side of her hair, settling his palm on the back of her head before he pulled her down until her face was a palm length away from him. “You better use this at your own disposal,” he whispered, tilting his head as he lifted it up to claim what’s his. HER. Meet Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth, the sadistic tyrant, who reigned an empire with an iron fist. With his pet, Aries’ increasing presence in his boring, dark life, he was set to kill her. But alas, every time he thought of taking her life, he finds himself changing his mind. The more he kept her by his side, the more it got harder to dispose of her. And the more he yearned for something deeper and darker... it was driving him insane. With a secret he was keeping from her, what would Abel do if Aries found out about the rotting truth behind the empire and the emperor? Would he kill her? Or kiss her? Perhaps cage her? And if she found out that Abel wasn’t just a normal human, would she try to escape? Or would she accept that he wasn’t just a demon incarnate? In a complicated world that tainted them black, was love even possible to bloom between a pet and her master? Watch as these two play the dangerous and insane game of love and lust. Who would be the master and the pet? Who was the prey?

The General's Wife Wants to Leave

Experiencing a suffocating marriage with the man whom she was arranged to marry made Joanna want to leave him. But it was a failure as she died as the wife of the man who abandoned her and her son before they divorced. On the verge of her death, she made a wish to not encounter him again if there was a next life. She wished for the end of their fate only in this lifetime. She wanted to forget everything about him. However, when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in the room of the mansion of the man she just married. She was awakened by a dream that seemed to be a nightmare of her past life. She didn’t remember completely everything that had occurred in her past life and the dream was fragmented. But deep inside her heart, she only felt one thing. She was adamant about leaving him, to be far away from him. Therefore, she left his mansion just before she met him in person in the present lifetime. However, what she didn’t expect was that the so-called husband pursued her, not allowing her to leave him. Would Joanna be successful in leaving the man in this lifetime? Would fate play the same tragedy as her past life? --- As he pulled his finger away from her soft, warm lips, he said, “It is good you stopped winding up, Joanna. Otherwise, I would have used the other method to make you stop blabbering over the same, boring topic endlessly.” When he noticed the stubborn woman was about to prove herself to be stubborn, the man leaned forward in a swift movement, facing the woman’s stupefied face which was an inch away from his. “Continue to blabbering, don’t blame me if I apply my other method right now,” the man murmured above her breath, trailing his gaze from her quivering eyes to her lips before moving it back to her now widened eyes. --- *Cover doesn’t belong to the author.
