摘要

Wealthy, beautiful, and intelligent. I had everything in my hands, family, friends, and an amazing lover. The only problem for me was when I realized that aside from my wealth and my family, everything else I had was fake.  The boyfriend betrayed, the best friend schemed, and I was severely hurt by them.  However, my life hasn't turned bleak yet. Meeting the handsome older brother of my boyfriend introduced me to a new possibility: Revenge.  My Darling played the role of my granddaddy’s bodyguard and supported me with all he could.  Hand by hand, we two paved a completely new path that couldn't have been reached otherwise.  Love, drama, pain, struggle, and more were the themes of my new life. From that moment onwards, I realized that nothing was impossible.  Read the book to understand more, you won't regret it ;)

Chapter 1The Unforeseen Betrayal

"Mhmm, peaceful…" I softly whispered, my back leaning against the soft blanket spread on the beautiful lush grass. 

The warm rays of sunshine caressed my skin through the leaves of the tall trees, bathing me in warmth. The birds were chirping happily as the wind softly caused the leaves to rustle, creating a harmonious sweet melody. 

"Hehe, enjoying yourself, Emma?"

Sara, my dear best friend, leaned down to poke my cheek with a wide smile. Her long black hair swayed with the wind, which annoyed her as she quickly stood up again and fixed it. 

"Yes, I'm enjoying it. Running away from the mountains of papers I needed to take care of is nothing light."

"Heh," William, my boyfriend, snorted," Told'cha so. Who wants to be the prisoner of their own office? You gotta smell some air and touch grass, babe."

He put a plate with some sandwiches next to me before plopping to the ground himself, he ushered Sara to sit and helped me sit too as he handed us some food with a carefree smile. 

'Beautiful eyes,' my thoughts wandered to his gorgeous pair of brown eyes. It was beautiful, no doubt about that. My boyfriend was one of the most handsome guys in our area. That alone gave me some pride. 

"Yeah, I agree. This is exactly what we needed!" Sara chirped before nibbling on a sandwich and slowly starting to eat. 

Whoever would see this young woman may think she was the one who was overworked for twenty-four hours per day, not me. 

'Such a lazy bum, pfft.'

A stereotype for most omegas around. Beautiful, lazy, carefree and great to have as housewives or househusbands. Despite being an Omega myself, however, I couldn't find it in me to follow that stereotype. 

'I suppose I'm a little jealous of Sara for being able to indulge into that one. She's happy, and that's all matters now.'

In any case, being an omega, alpha, or even a beta, was nothing to be degraded for. It was the secondary genders that people awakened upon turning sixteen years old, and their physique and traits would normally be more inclined accordingly.

'That was it in essence, so I always wondered why people would put so much weight on these stereotypes. But it is what it is.'

Sara and William were chatting warmly and eating as my thoughts consumed me, letting me drift into a comfortable daze while listening to their jokes. 

Running a company that ruled more than 80% of the country was not a joke; although I appreciated the holiday, I knew it could only last so long. From the moment my grandpa asked me whether I wanted to inherit the Smith family's business and my agreement to that, I had given up any chance of a normal comfortable life. 

'The lives of the slackers isn't my style, so it's not that bad.'

Time passed quickly without me noticing. This delightful picnic was truly something I needed. This mountain retreat was specifically bought by me after weeks of delicate planning, it was serene and secluded from people's eyes. 

"Hey, don't you think we need to do something more fun?" Sara suddenly shook me out of my daze. I blinked, then waited for her to tell me the rest. 

"You see, we've been playing around but it's just the bottom of the mountain. We bought the whole place, how could we not climb it??"

"Great idea!" William joined her, making me raise an eyebrow. He quickly explained, "The most refreshing place should definitely be the top! And in addition, it's not like we will be climbing there physically."

He pointed at my car with a smug smirk. 

"That car can take us for sure!"

"Mm…" something made me uncomfortable, perhaps it was my gut feeling. I looked around me and just then realized—the sky was darkening, the once-clear blue sky was now riddled with clouds. "Are we sure this will be safe? But it's getting weirdly cloudy, what if a storm was coming?"

Sara's lips curled into a pout, she furrowed her eyebrows and whined: "So whattt? These clouds are probably just passing through, it's just a what-if, we will be fine!"

"Sara, I'm not comfortable with—"

"Aye Emma, what's getting ya all worried? Let us go to the top of the mountain. Even if a storm comes, we can just be faster. So no need to delay."

William cut me off and threw his arm around my shoulder. For some reason, my stomach was churning. I really didn't like what was happening, but the two were in agreement and I didn't want to sound like a jerk. 

Thus, reluctantly, I got into the car with them. 

"Thank you so much Emma~! I knew I could rely on you to choose the best hehe~"

Sara flattered me before hopping into the car as well. William sat on the driver seat and started the engine, driving us through the narrow path. The higher we were climbing, the harsher the wind treated us. And before we knew it, droplets of rain started falling. 

"Gosh. See, I was right. It's a big storm. We need to stop and hide. Or better, maybe even go back?"

"Nah, take it easy, babe." William shrugged her off, "You gotta chill a bit. We are so close from the top."

'No, we're in danger, the rain is just getting heavier! We are already unable to see clearly.'

I wanted to blurt that out, but the way Sara and William were agreeing to each other repeatedly made me pause. Why was William listening to her instead of me, his girlfriend? 

'Why, why, why…!?'

Worry consumed me, but I could only focus on the road as one wrong step and we'll be dead. 

"Sara, William, please. This doesn't feel safe at all!" 

"Bruh, just chill, Emma~" Sara cooed, she wrapped her arms around my shoulders and whispered: "It's not like you have any reason or anything to be scared. It's nothing but some weather, gosh."

"I said it already, now shut it. I can't stand you two."

I couldn't take it, making me snap at them before gripping my seat and shutting my eyes tightly. Suddenly, a loud thunder startled them and shook the car–it quickly took a sharp turn and struggled to not flip. 

"Fuck!"

"Ah!!!" 

Sara screamed as William cursed in shock, he attempted to regain control, but the tiers skidded on the slick road, throwing our car over the edge of the cliff with a sickening jolt. 

"Ugh!" 

'Everything hurt.'

My world spun as the car tumbled down, bouncing off the Rocky mountain and wild branches of the trees. The sound of metal being crushed coupled with the glass shattering filled my ears, causing me to feel as if I was in an unfamiliar world full of chaos and pain. 

My left leg was screaming in pain, 'Maybe it's broken.'

After that, the world was silent. 

'Painful, so painful…'

My eyes were hurt, I couldn't see clearly any more. Even attempting to lift my body proved to be difficult and challenging. My hand quickly reached into my pocket and I grabbed my phone. 

At the very least, I needed to secure an ambulance. 

Unfortunately, my phone showed a dreadful sign. 

「No Signal」

'Nothing is cooperating with me, darn it!'

But then, I saw some movement. My eyes opened wide, my world was full of hope for a few seconds. It was William! He was crawling out of the car carefully, seemingly without much injuries. Although his face was covered in cuts. 

The relief I had at that moment was immeasurable. I thought, finally I would survive this. So I tried to call, but my voice was too weak. 

"William..?"

He didn't seem to hear me. However, he turned toward the passenger side. So, my thoughts immediately went to him trying to get me out of there… 

But I was mistaken. 

Sara, who was lying unconscious behind me, was gently dragged out of the scene. My boyfriend cradled my best friend in this moment of danger and ran off, not sparing me a glance. 

"William… No… Help me…!"

The jerk didn't look back. He started climbing the slope with great difficulty, while leaving me to die in this car. 

Finally, I snapped and realized what was going on. Panic grew in my chest as I smelled the unpleasant smell of gasoline. 

'He left me! And this cat will explode in no time!'

By then, I couldn't care less about him. A strangled gasp escaped my lips as I forced myself to try getting out of the wrecked car—something pierced my leg, and I'm not sure what it was. 

Terror was great motivation, however. My body was injected with a dose of adrenaline in order to survive, allowing me to ignore all the pain and pull myself away from there. 

The Muddy ground was terrible, but I clawed my way out of it. 

Like a devil crawling out of hell. 

The last thing I remembered out of my struggle for life was the burning, agonizing sensation of my left leg with a loud, paralyzing bang. 

Darkness consumed me and lulled me into its embrace.

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?

Her fiancé finally uses the opportunity to break off his engagement to her and her father sends her packing to her aunt in another city never to return after she refuses to remove the baby like he asked her to. Seven years later, she returns to the city to claim her position as the heiress of her mother's fortune, which her father and his wife and daughter has been living off of all these years. But not as the overweight duckling everyone expected, but as a stunning, glamorous woman. Behind her are three children: a daughter who looks exactly like her, a handsome son, and another handsome son who looks too much like the most powerful man in the city. Unexpectedly, the dimwit, her fiancé who broke off their engagement comes begging for them to get married like they were supposed to. "So what if you're stunning now and lost all that weight? Everyone knows you used to be an ugly duckling. Who knows the underhanded ways you resorted to to lose weight. Forget our past and marry me again." The woman looked at him and snickered. "Aren't you the heir of the Baker family? Why would you marry a fatso like me?" The man huffed and said arrogantly. "Hmph! Do whatever you want. But I assure you that no one in Silicon Valley will want to marry a woman saddled with bastard children!" The triplets came up on his face and snorted in disdain. "Who's this? Where is daddy when a man like this harasses mommy?” “I told you he wasn’t worth her. Hurry up and call him quickly.” The man who was in the middle of a conference call ended it as soon as he heard the news and went straight to where she was. “Are you hitting on my wife? Bastards? Are you calling the beloved children of Jett Adler bastards?” “Eh-what? Jett Adler? The most powerful man in the city? How is that even possible!”

Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir

Shu Wan, the most outstanding daughter of a high-status family from a feudal dynasty, travels a thousand years into the future, becoming the new lady of the Fu family in the capital. ------ Her husband in name has gone overseas to explore markets, leaving behind a rebellious son whose name resounds throughout the capital. ------ Upon first meeting, the rebellious son speeds past on a motorcycle with his silver-white hair flying, "Isn't that my stepmother who's 6 years older than me? Skinny arms and legs, but with grand ambitions." Before he finishes, Shu Wan leaps up and plucks him off the motorcycle with one hand, "Watch your mouth." ------ Fu Yang is consistently at the bottom of his grade, especially with his Chinese language scores never passing 50. Shocked by his atrociously written exam papers, Shu Wan asks, "Are you even Chinese?" Fu Yang is defiant, "Aren't you a dimwitted academic failure yourself, what right do you have to criticize me?" Yet the next second, as Shu Wan smoothly writes down 'Ancient Prose Paragon' with a brush, it's Fu Yang's turn to be astonished. Isn't she a walking dictionary? ------ Fu Siyu returns from his overseas expansion earlier than expected, thinking he would come home to chaos. However, upon entering the door, he sees the usually defiant Fu Yang sitting obediently practicing his calligraphy with a perfect score exam paper beside him. And his reputedly timid wife, in a sleek black high-slit dress, confidently struts to the music, drawing the attention of everyone. But none of that is the focal point. The focus is on Fu Siyu's gaze, sharp as a knife, directed toward the dance partner's hand resting on Shu Wan's lower back, "Let go." Note: The son is not the biological child of the male lead.
