☆♡Just a substitute, or her own person?♡☆ ~~♡Sister's widower×twin sister♡~~ In the esteemed Romanov family, two identical twins were born on November 7th - Luna and Lily. Their resemblance was uncanny: raven-black hair, piercing blue eyes, fair skin, and hourglass figures. They shared the same height, weight, and even voice. Yet, their differences were stark. Lily was the quintessential softie - kind, gentle, and agreeable. She endured school bullying with silence, never daring to speak back. Her passion lay in acting and modeling, encouraged by her mother from the tender age of five. Lily's style was floral and feminine, often adorning herself in glittering pink and blue dresses. Luna, on the other hand, was a force to be reckoned with - rebellious, confident, and bold. She refused to kneel to anyone, often leaving teachers in awe of her fearlessness. Her interests aligned with her father's - business and intelligence. She aspired to be a businesswoman, rejecting her mother's attempts to groom her for modeling. Luna's style was sleek and powerful, favoring black suits and dresses that commanded respect. By age 21, the twins' differences had become more pronounced. Lily was the family favorite, while Luna felt neglected. This led Luna to leave France and start anew in New York. Five years passed, and Luna had become a renowned businesswoman, CEO of the multibillion-dollar company Inovission. She owned malls, hotels, resorts, and bars, earning admiration for her beauty and wit. Tragedy struck when Luna heard about Lily's sudden death. Despite their differences and her parents' neglect, Luna was devastated. She had lost her twin, her mirror image, and a piece of herself. Somberly, Luna returned to France, relocating her company's main branch from New York. Her private jet landed on a heavily rainy day, and she made her way to her family's ancestral mansion. Upon entering, the butler was shocked, mistaking Luna for Lily's ghost. After a brief explanation, he led her to the living room. Inside, Luna found her parents, who were equally mistaken, believing Lily had miraculously returned from the dead. They were accompanied by "Mr. Leon Watson, CEO of Pantheon Corporation. A very handsome man, who was wanted by all woman around the world. He was rich and powerful, which only added to his personalty and being desired by many woman. Unbeknownst to Luna, Leon was Lily's widower and the father of their one-year-old son, Lucas." A business contract connected their companies, but they had never met. To Luna, Leon appeared vulnerable, but she knew his reputation as a powerful businessman. As she entered the room, she intended to explain her identity to her parents but....

~~♡♡"No one noticed, but i did. And i would stop at nothing to make you mine."♡♡~~ [(^з^)-☆] Aurora Faye, the youngest daughter of the powerful Faye family, was born into a world of luxury and danger. Her arrival was bittersweet, as her mother passed away shortly after her birth. Despite this tragedy, Aurora's father, Jane Faye, a ruthless mafia leader and CEO of a multibillion-dollar company, adored her above all else. Her elder brothers, Sam and Zack, were equally protective of her, and as they grew older, they became formidable figures in the underworld. As Aurora grew up, she was trained in combat and martial arts in the safety of her mansion's backyard. She was a brilliant student, excelling in her studies while her brothers were busy building their reputations as powerful mafia leaders. By the time she turned 21, Aurora had graduated with top honors, her beauty and confidence rivaled only by her intellect. Her father, recognizing her potential, entrusted her with the reins of "Inovission," a company of great importance and wealth. Aurora proved to be a shrewd businesswoman, expanding the company's portfolio and building a reputation as the "young business queen." She was a force to be reckoned with, and her aura commanded attention wherever she went. But there were secrets about Aurora that no one knew. No one knew that she had a sweet tooth for chocolate late at night. No one knew that she cried on her mother's grave, missing the woman she never got to know. No one knew that she had a soft spot for the color lavender, despite always wearing black. And no one knew that she was allergic to peanuts and cucumbers, or that she suffered from anxiety attacks when alone. However, one person had noticed these secrets: Adrian Graham, the most feared mafia king. He was a man of few words, but his reputation preceded him. He was known for his cunning, his intelligence, and his ruthlessness. He was a close friend of Sam and Zack's, and had known Aurora since she was a child. But as he watched her grow into a powerful and beautiful woman, he found himself drawn to her in ways he couldn't explain. Adrian was a man of mystery, with a past shrouded in secrecy. Few knew much about him, except that he was a force to be reckoned with. He was tall, dark, and handsome, with piercing eyes that seemed to see right through you. He was a master strategist, always planning several moves ahead of his opponents. Even the government trembled at the mention of his name. And he was a man of his word, who would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. Adrian had been pursuing Aurora for a long time, sending her bouquets of peonies with letters that spoke of her beauty and strength. He had sent her chocolates and expensive jewelry, always trying to catch her eye. He had protected her from the shadows, watching over her with a fierce devotion. And he had decided that he would stop at nothing to make her his. But Aurora was resistant to his charms. She didn't want to love, didn't trust anyone, and wasn't ready to open herself up to the dangers of romance. Or was there something more? Adrian wasn't sure, but he was determined to find out. As he continued to pursue her, Aurora remained elusive, her secrets locked away behind a mask of confidence and poise. But Adrian was patient, and he knew that eventually, he would uncover the truth about this enigmatic woman. And when he did, he would claim her as his own. [Adiran- 25. Aurora-21. Sam- 26. Zack- 28.]

~~\♡Contract marriage♡/~ In the upper echelons of society, Leo Carter, the 24-year-old CEO of Carter Enterprises, found himself at a crossroads. As the eldest son of the Carter family, he was poised to inherit the family business, but his father had one condition: he had to get married. With no specific bride in mind, Leo had a week to find a suitable partner. The problem was, he wasn't in love with anyone, and he had no intention of marrying a socialite who was only interested in his wealth. Meanwhile, in the same high-society circle, Luna Graham, the 23-year-old daughter of the Graham family, was facing a similar dilemma. Her father had promised her the company, Inovision, in two years, but only if she met certain conditions. She had to work as Vice President at Pantheon, a company she knew was owned by the heir of the Carter family, whom she had never met or seen in the past two years. Additionally, she had to get married within a week. Her father didn't specify a particular groom, but he expected her partner to be well-employed and well-mannered. Like Leo, Luna had never been in love and didn't have a specific someone in mind. The two individuals, complete strangers to each other, found themselves in a similar predicament. Luna, frustrated and tired of thinking, escaped to her comfort zone, a high hill overlooking the city. She leaned against a tree, gazing out at the cityscape, and muttered in frustration, "F*k, where am I supposed to find a groom out of nowhere?" Just then, she heard a low, masculine voice behind her, echoing her sentiments, "F*k, where am I supposed to find a bride out of nowhere?" Their eyes met, and a spark of recognition ignited. Without hesitation, they proposed a solution in unison: "Would you like a contract marriage, stranger?" The terms were simple: a two-year agreement, with rules to govern their interactions, and a clause to keep their union a secret from the public. They signed the contract, introducing themselves to their families by their first names alone. As they settled into their new life together in a grand mansion, they maintained a respectful distance, occupying separate rooms on their first night together. This was a contract marriage, devoid of love or grudges. Little did they know, their professional lives were about to become intricately entwined. Luna, the Vice President at Pantheon, was unknowingly working under the CEO, Leo Carter, her husband in name only. As they navigated their contract marriage, they would soon discover the unexpected twist that would change the course of their lives forever.

~~♡♡Once upon a time, we were strangers....♡♡~~ Ines Romano, the younger daughter of the esteemed Romano family, was cherished by her parents – or so they claimed. Truly, it was her elder brother Ivan Romano who genuinely cared for her. As a successful businessman, Ivan ran his company in England, far removed from their family's roots in Russia. Ines, on the other hand, was a self-made woman: the world's top doctor and CEO of her pioneering medical-tech company, Terracure. Her independence, fierce personality, bold nature, and wealth were matched only by her breathtaking beauty. One morning, Ines woke up to an unfamiliar room. Her personal maid, Lora, stood nearby, startled by her awakening. Ines' hands were tied, and she was dressed in a wedding gown – a sight that left her stunned. Lora explained that Ines' parents had drugged her, dressed her in the gown, and she is in the VIP room of a luxurious hotel. Her parents were now preparing her wedding to Felix Black in the sams luxurious hotel's grand hall just below on ground floor. Felix Black was the heir to the inferior Black family and had a notorious reputation as a woma//ni//zer with no respect for women. Ines was appalled – she would never marry him. Determined to escape, she shared her plan with Lora, who agreed to help and discreetly untied her hands. As the Romano family guards approached to check on her, Lora distracted them, allowing Ines to slip away unnoticed. Ines ran hastily through the hotel corridor, her long wedding dress trailing behind her, as the guards pursued her. Desperate to evade capture, she turned a corner and randomly entered a nearby VIP room, closing the door behind her. Inside, she found a tall, handsome man standing by the window, his back to her, engaged in a phone call. Ines crept closer, picked up a rose with a sturdy stem, and poked it into the man's back, pretending it was a gu//n. "Don't turn, don't move, and end the call," she warned. The man remained calm, but amused, a sly smile spreading across his face as he ended the call. Ines then forced him into a chair and tied his hands together using the lace from her veil. She hid under the table near his knees, unaware that the man was watching her. Moments later, the guards entered the room, searching for Ines. Although they didn't find her, they froze upon seeing the man – none other than Alain Valois, the powerful and feared mafia king. Alain Valois was a name whispered in terror. His illicit businesses had amassed him a vast fortune, and his legal ventures were merely a facade for his true dealings. Even governments trembled at the mention of his name. Women dreamed of meeting him, but knew such fantasies were doomed to remain unfulfilled. As Alain spoke in his deep, cold voice, "What? Why are you bothering me?" the guards bowed nervously before fleeing. Ines emerged from under the table, confused by the guards' sudden retreat... [Ines: 23 y/o. Alain: 28 y/o]

~~♡♡Only one, who didn't feared him♡♡~~ ~~♡♡his love♡♡~~ Sasha Miller and Ivan Solkov were bound by an arranged marriage, forging an alliance between two of Russia's most powerful families. Sasha, sole heiress of the wealthy Miller family, was a captivating figure – a powerful businesswoman and CEO of 'Pantheon,' a conglomerate renowned for its vast wealth and influence. Her empire included luxurious hotels, resorts, and malls. Her beauty was lethal: blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, porcelain skin, and an hourglass figure that commanded attention wherever she went. Her presence exuded confidence and power, demanding respect. Ivan Solkov, the only son of the equally influential Solkov family, was CEO of 'Innovision,' a mighty company with holdings in malls, casinos, bars, and hotels. His striking features could leave women breathless. Beyond his captivating appearance, Ivan was notorious for his ruthless nature as the 'mafia boss' of Russia's underworld – feared by all, his name sent shivers down spines. Their arranged marriage was a promise between their parents, who were close friends. Sasha Miller, now Sasha Solkov, was uniquely unafraid of her husband – a rebellious spirit from their high school days. She'd fiercely argue with Ivan, who curiously allowed her to win debates, as if he desired her triumph. Irony defined their relationship: the most feared man in Russia was dominated by his wife. Initially, their marriage lacked intimacy, with only teasing and fights punctuating their interactions. But four months in, subtle feelings blossomed between them – slowly, gradually. The day unfolded with Ivan returning home to an empty mansion, waiting until Sasha arrived at 11 PM, exhausted from her business duties. When questioned, Sasha truthfully cited work commitments. Ivan's anger flared, and he launched into a fierce tirade: "You don't know how dangerous the world is! You never know when and where those monsters lurking, waiting to take advantage of you, are present!" Sasha stood firm, but Ivan's rage consumed him, blinding him to her pale complexion and evident illness. Their argument escalated, voices raised, neither yielding. Then, Ivan crossed a deadly line... "Shut up, Sasha!! I know you... Coming back late at night – you're such a... s//lut!!" His eyes widened in horror as he realized the venomous words he'd spoken. Sasha's eyes brimmed with tears, her face deathly pale, as if she'd collapse. Ivan's heart sank – he hadn't meant those words, and now their unspoken feelings hung precariously between them. Without a word, Sasha turned and stormed out of the mansion, midnight air enveloping her Rolls-Royce as she sped away to her luxurious 29th-floor penthouse – one of many properties she owned. Ivan sighed heavily, knowing exactly where she'd gone and that he must follow. He also knew she was ill and needed his care. Ivan swiftly grabbed his trench coat, phone, and wallet, then issued a commanding order to his personal assistant, Nick, and bodyguard, Neol: "Neol! Nick! Prepare my Rolls-Royce – destination: Mrs. Solkov's penthouse. Immediately." As his team sprang into action, Ivan's mind raced with regret and concern for Sasha's health. He knew he had to reach her, to apologize and comfort her after his hurtful outburst. Within minutes, his Rolls-Royce was ready. Ivan slid into the backseat, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, his thoughts consumed by Sasha: "Did I truly ruin everything between us with those words? She's been showing signs of illness lately – I should've noticed she wasn't well tonight..."

~~◇♡♡Arrange marriage♡♡~~ ♡ ~~♡◇Mafia boss×CEO◇♡~~ The Ellor family was the embodiment of power and fear, casting a long shadow over both the underworld and the business world. Jacob Ellor, the formidable head of the Ellor Mafia family, commanded respect and inspired trepidation. Yet, despite his tough exterior, he had a soft spot for his daughter, Elena, whom he cherished with unwavering love and devotion. His elder son, Sam, shared this affection, treating his younger sister with kindness and gentleness, a rare respite from their family's cutthroat business dealings. Elena, a stunning beauty with golden locks and piercing blue eyes, was the spitting image of her late mother. Intelligent, ambitious, and driven, she had always dreamed of building a legitimate business empire from the ground up. At 24, she had already achieved remarkable success as the CEO of Inovission, a powerhouse company with a diverse portfolio of hotels, resorts, and malls. Despite her family's illicit activities, Elena had steered clear of the underworld, forging her own path and earning respect in the business world. Years ago, when Elena was just three, her father had taken in a seven-year-old boy named Lucien Blake, who was struggling to survive on the streets. Jacob's influence and Sam's guidance had helped Lucien build a vast business empire, both legal and illicit. Now, at 27, Lucien was a powerful and wealthy Mafia boss in his own right, with a vast network of casinos, bars, and hotels. Despite his success, he remained eternally grateful to the Ellor family and maintained a cordial relationship with Jacob and Sam. However, his interactions with Elena were limited to polite nods and brief encounters, their paths crossing like ships in the night. On Jacob's 67th birthday, he announced a marriage between Lucien and Elena, leaving both parties little room for argument. Lucien's gratitude towards Jacob and Elena's love and respect for her father ensured their compliance. As they embarked on married life, Elena made every effort to make the relationship work. She would return home from her office by 9 pm, eager to spend quality time with Lucien, but he would often be running on a different clock, arriving late or not at all. When he did arrive, he would be aloof and distant, exchanging brief, curt responses with Elena. Despite her best efforts, Elena found herself facing a brick wall. Lucien's calm and quiet demeanor was unnerving, and his lack of enthusiasm was palpable. Every night, Elena would wait for Lucien on her balcony, reading a book until his car arrived at midnight. When he stepped out, she would greet him with a warm smile, only to be met with a expressionless gaze and a swift departure. The ritual was repeated daily, leaving Elena feeling frustrated and disheartened. But she never loosed hope. As the days turned into weeks, Elena wondered if things would ever change. Would Lucien's cold exterior ever thaw, or would she be forever trapped in this loveless, distant marriage? Would she ever crack the code to his enigmatic personality, or would she remain forever on the outside looking in? Only time would tell.

~~♡♡"My love, you are my world...and my obsession"♡♡~~ In the heart of Russia, a name whispered in fear by the citizens and government alike was Zade Meadows – the 26-year-old mafia king. His power and wealth were boundless, and his looks could kill. Zade's empire stretched far and wide, a vast network of illegal activities that made him the most feared man in the country. Yet, despite his formidable reputation, he was also a shrewd businessman with a keen eye for opportunity. Sophie Rozen, on the other hand, was a 24-year-old beauty from a high-class family background. Her family, the Rozens, were esteemed members of society, owners of powerful businesses that operated strictly within the law. Sophie had just graduated college and was poised to inherit a significant portion of her family's wealth and companies. The stage was set for their worlds to collide at Sophie's best friend's wedding, where Zade was in attendance as the groom's best friend. As Sophie mingled with the guests, Zade watched her from afar, his eyes fixed on her as he became increasingly obsessed. As the night drew to a close, Sophie made her way to her Rolls-Royce, ready to depart. Suddenly, a tap on her shoulder made her turn around. It was Zade. His piercing gaze locked onto hers as he uttered the words that would change everything: "Marry me. I'll give you everything you ever wanted." Sophie chuckled, thinking it was a joke. "I'm sorry, sir? I don't even know your name, and as for marriage? I'm not thinking about it right now." With that, she slid into her car and drove away, leaving Zade standing alone in the darkness. Little did she know, her life was about to take a dramatic turn. One month later, Sophie found herself abducted and married to Zade Meadows. She was taken to his grand mansion, surrounded by guards and maids. Zade turned to her, a sly smile spreading across his face. "I am Zade Meadows. Meadows... our surname is Meadows, and you are mine." Sophie's eyes widened in fear as she realized who her husband truly was. For the next two months, Sophie was held captive in the mansion. Zade would often kiss her and they would share intimate moments, but whenever she tried to escape, he would catch her and bring her back.His voice would remain calm, with a hint of anger, as he'd say, "You ran away... but I caught you." He'd pause, then continue, "No matter how much you run away, I'll catch you. Run as much as you want, little mouse, I'll chase, I'll catch you." Initially, Sophie hated Zade with every fiber of her being. However, as the days turned into months, she found herself falling for him. Six months into their marriage, Sophie had grown to love Zade, despite his obsession with her. She'd often request to leave the mansion, to work at her company and fulfill her dream of becoming CEO. But Zade would deny her every time, leading to heated arguments. Their last argument was the most intense. Zade's hand was raised, ready to strike Sophie. She closed her eyes, bracing for the impact, but it never came. Zade stopped himself, realizing what he was about to do. He was frustrated, and his voice was laced with anger as he yelled, "Go! Run away!! Run away, little mouse! And this time... no one will chase you... no one will catch you." Sophie was shocked and heartbroken. She tried to approach Zade, but he pushed her away, yelling, "Go!! Go away!!" She had no choice but to leave. Unbeknownst to Sophie, Zade's decision to let her go was motivated by his desire to protect her from his powerful enemy, who sought to destroy everything he held dear. With a heavy heart, Sophie left the mansion and took over her family's company, Inovission. She became a powerful CEO, and her business flourished. She was elegant, rich, and beautiful, but a part of her would always yearn for Zade. Five months had passed since Sophie left the mansion. Zade was consumed by sadness and longing. He missed Sophie terribly but was determined to resolve his issues with his enemy before reaching out to her. The question on everyone's mind was: would they ever reunite?

~~♡♡Enemies to couple♡♡~~ _♡He was feared, she was respected, both intimidating to the world yet, annoying to eachother♡_ Two powerful CEOs, Alonzo Blake and Elena Rossi, shared equally impressive backgrounds. Contrary to expectation, their relationship was far from friendly – they were sworn enemies. Even when their families gathered for dinner, tension filled the air as they exchanged icy glares. As toddlers, they had pulled each other's hair and fought over toys. In high school, their rivalry intensified: Alonzo would sneak fake cockroaches into Elena's locker, while she would plaster his seat with chewing gum. Academically, they constantly competed for top positions, respect, and teacher admiration. Upon inheriting their families' businesses, Alonzo became CEO of Pantheon and Elena led Inovission – both companies thrived. Besides business, they owned numerous hotels, malls, and resorts. Yet, their professional success only fueled their rivalry. Elena's expertise in technology and hacking gave her an edge, allowing her to annoy Alonzo by hacking his phone or laptop. Their lives seemed destined for perpetual rivalry – until their parents suggested marriage. The proposal was met with reluctance, but eventually, they conceded. Their luxurious wedding was a grand affair, attracting paparazzi and high-profile guests. Media outlets dubbed them the "power couple": he was feared, she was respected – both intimidating yet annoyingly inseparable. Even after marriage, their dynamic barely shifted. Alonzo would eat Elena's chocolate solely to irritate her, while she would hide his important files. Their relationship evolved into a unique blend of love and rivalry – or "eneple" as they called it. Despite constant bickering, their four-month marriage was marked by intense intimacy – often accompanied by teasing remarks. Alonzo ignored other women, devoted solely to Elena, his enemy-turned-partner. Elena, similarly devoted, would dramatically affirm her fidelity. Theirs was a dark romance filled with teasing and playful rivalry. [Alanzo- 27, Elena- 24]

~~♡Predictor Emperor × unpredictable Empress♡♡~~ ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡Suggestion by- "Kuro/Child" ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆In the Empire of Regan, a crown prince named Elias Miller was notorious for being a "trouble maker." His reputation preceded him – some claimed he was born to cause chaos, while others believed his arrogance stemmed from being the sole heir to the throne. As a child, his behavior was tolerated. But as he blossomed into adolescence at 13, his father, the Emperor, issued an ultimatum: reform or face disinheritance. Thus began Elias' transformation. He delved into political and trade studies, mastered combat and swordsmanship, and discovered his true passion – chess. The game consumed him. He spent hours studying strategies, requested a dedicated chess room, and even persuaded his father to allow him to use knights and servants as pieces in real-life games on weekends. His father, perplexed yet hopeful, acquiesced. Ten years passed, and Elias' dedication to chess never wavered. His routine remained unchanged – two hours daily, four hours on weekends – yet his mindset underwent a profound metamorphosis. He evolved into a master strategist, able to predict his opponents' moves with uncanny accuracy. This newfound skill served him well. Elias emerged victorious in numerous wars, negotiated lucrative trade deals, and predicted the actions of his enemies on the battlefield and in the courtroom. At 23, his father deemed him worthy of the throne, and Elias ascended to become the new Emperor. Three years of wise rule followed, with Elias' predictive abilities remaining sharp. However, as his 26th year approached, the ministers and his father urged him to marry and secure an heir. Elias, still skeptical of love, agreed to a political marriage with Princess Elena of Ellora – a powerful empire equal to Regan's might. Their union would bring strategic gains and a potential heir, but Elias overlooked one crucial aspect: on the chessboard, the king may only move one space, whereas the queen reigns supreme with unpredictable freedom. Empress Elena proved to be his perfect match – intelligent, beautiful, and unpredictable. She excelled in politics, trade, and warfare, often leaving Elias impressed by her Unpredictable yet effective methods. As his partner in both governance and life, Elena illuminated the darkness with her presence. She balanced duty and pleasure with grace, challenging Elias' long-held belief that life was merely a political game. Their love story blossomed, a captivating blend of romance and subtle darkness. Elena remained the sole individual Elias could never predict – not then, not now, not ever.

~~♡" I'd hide my love i have for you, if it means you'll be happy."♡~~ ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ Sepherina Romanov, the sole heiress of the wealthy Romanov family, was once a bright-eyed and ambitious child, cherished by her parents. However, her life took a drastic turn when she was just five years old. Her parents' arguments escalated, and the love they once shared vanished. Her mother's affection turned to cruelty, as she subjected Sepherina to mental, physical, and verbal @b•$€. This t○rm€nt continued for two years, until fate intervened in a tragic way. A fatal car @cc¡d€nt claimed both her parents' lives, leaving Sepherina alone and adrift at the tender age of seven. In the aftermath of the tragedy, Sepherina found herself under the care of the influential Rowani family, who offered to sponsor her education and provide for her basic needs. Though the arrangement seemed benevolent on the surface, Sepherina would later discover that the Rowani family had ulterior motives [st€@ling her inheritance of great wealth]. As she grew up in the Rowani mansion, Sepherina befriended Lily and her two brothers, Bastian and Rowan. Bastian, the legitimate son, was adored and pampered, while Rowan, the illegitimate son, faced @b•$e and neglect at the hands of his father and stepmother. Despite their different circumstances, Sepherina and Rowan formed a strong bond, with Sepherina often sneaking food and providing emotional support to Rowan during his darkest moments. As they entered high school, Sepherina was sent to live in a hostel, while Rowan remained in the mansion. Their paths diverged, but their lives would intersect again in unexpected ways. Rowan's natural talent and business acumen earned him control of the influential companies Pantheon and Roflox Media by the head of the Romani family, his grandfather, while Sepherina's ambition and intelligence propelled her to the position of Director of the PR department at Roflox Media. At 21, Sepherina had become a stunning and intelligent woman, respected for her wit and poise. Her cold and emotionless demeanor, however, hinted at a deeper pain. Meanwhile, Rowan, now 24, was not only a successful CEO but also a secret m@fia boss, with ties to the und€rworld. His playful and jovial nature belied a deep affection for Sepherina, which he had harbored since childhood. One Christmas Eve, the Rowani family gathered for dinner, with Sepherina and Rowan both invited. Unbeknownst to Sepherina, Bastian's mother had other plans, slipping a substance into her drink that would change the course of their lives forever. After dinner, Sepherina was pushed into Rowan's room, where a p@ssion@t€ night ensued. Bastain's mother thought, after hearing the news, head of Rowani family, their grandfather, would take away the companies from Rowan but the next morning, Rowan's grandfather announced their marriage, a secret arrangement that would remain hidden from the public eye for the time being. As a married couple, Sepherina remained distant and unfeeling, while Rowan continued to tease her, hiding his true emotions behind a mask of playfulness. Despite their physical pr○x¡m¡ty, they slept in separate rooms, in their luxurious penthouse on 30th floor, and Rowan's "extracurricular activities" with actresses and models [which "only" Rowan knows, is fake, but in eyes or everyone its "real"] would become the subject of public sc@nd@l, which Sepherina would handle with her characteristic poise and professionalism. [Rowan decided to have his fake 'extra curricular activites' with actresses and modles, giving them money, in return to keep shut and tell the world that they did those activities. Because he thought that, both the marriage and he, will hold back sepherina, and he thought she didnt loved him, and by thinking these acts as real, she won't pity him and sacrifice hersef]. Only a handful of people knew about the marriage, including Rowan's PA, Nick, Sepherina's friend Alya, and the Rowani family. As the days turned into weeks, Sepherina and Rowan's relationship remained a complex web of secrets, emotions, and unspoken desires.

~~♡Separated? Would they Reconcole?♡♡~~ Llewellyn and Aiden were the embodiment of true love, their relationship admired by all. As childhood friends turned high school sweethearts and eventually husband and wife, their bond seemed unbreakable. Llewellyn, a powerful businesswoman and CEO of Inovission, was a stunning beauty with a successful modeling career. Born into the influential Rowani family, she owned numerous properties, including malls, resorts, hotels, and bars. Aiden, the CEO of Pantheon, was a handsome and successful businessman from the wealthy Rossi family. His love for Llewellyn was unwavering, and he was the desire of every woman.

However, their perfect life was disrupted by Lily Watson, Aiden's assistant and a girl who had always envied Llewellyn. Lily manipulated Aiden with lies and edited pictures, making him believe that Llewellyn was having an affair. Aiden, hurt and angry, started cheating on Llewellyn with Lily. For a month, he was distant and cold towards Llewellyn, who was unaware of his infidelity. Just as Aiden's betrayal was taking its toll, Llewellyn discovered she was pregnant with his child. Excited, she waited for the evening to share the news with Aiden. But when he arrived, he was cold and distant, and upon hearing the news, he accused her of infidelity, yelling, "Whose child is it?" Llewellyn tried to explain, but Aiden wouldn't listen. The situation escalated, and their families became involved. The truth about Aiden's infidelity and Lily's manipulation came to light. But when Llewellyn showed Aiden the edited pictures, it became clear that Lily had made a crucial mistake - the man in the pictures was none other than Llewellyn's cousin brother, Kim Roan. This revelation proved Llewellyn's innocence, and Aiden's world crumbled. Consumed by regret, he immediately sued Lily and asked Llewellyn for forgiveness. However, Llewellyn, hurt by his betrayal, signed a divorce agreement, but Aiden refused to sign back, leading to a separation. Llewellyn, with Aiden's child inside her, moved to New York to start a new life, while Aiden remained in France, trying to overcome the pain of losing Llewellyn. Years passed, and Llewellyn gave birth to a daughter, Sephy. When Leon and Ariana organized a grand anniversary celebration, they invited Llewellyn and Sephy. Llewellyn decided to settle in France again, which would inevitably lead to her meeting Aiden. One day, Llewellyn's parents persuaded her to visit the Rossi mansion, where Aiden and his parents resided. Aiden's parents were supportive and welcoming, and good friends of Llewellyn's parents. Her parents adamantly sent her, with Sephy, to the Rossi mansion, setting the stage for a reunion with Aiden. [Aiden-> 27. Llewellyn-> 26. Sephy->2]

~♡A friendship, broken...or turned into love?♡ They were the epitome of friendship, a bond forged since birth. Sophie Ern and Xander Solkov grew up together, their families - the Solkovs and Erns - being affluent, influential, wealthy and best friends for centuries. Sophie, a ravishing beauty with blonde hair and blue eyes, was kind, intelligent, and vivacious. Xander, with black hair and green eyes, was carefree, intelligent, and respectful. As their parents were close friends, they were often placed in the same social circles, attending the same school and modeling shoots together. As toddlers, they'd spend hours playing in each other's backyards. As they grew older, their friendship deepened, and they became accustomed to being seen together in public. They'd share the same seat in school, serve each other in the canteen, and cheer each other on during sports events. As time passed, their friendship continued to blossom. Then came university life, a phase where individuals often experience new emotions and feelings. Sophie found herself falling for Xander... hard. But she had a fear as she heard the phrase - "Never turn friendship into relationship or both would be ruined." After the summer breaks, Sophie invited Xander to her mansion's backyard, decorated with rose petals and candles. Xander was confused still he sat beside her "What's all this about shorty?". She shooke her head, nervously and sang "In the Name of Love" in her melodious voice, laced with love, and confessed, "Xander... I... I love you." Xander was stunned, and his response was, "Sophie, I am sorry... I do not feel the same way." Sophie forced a smile, trying to downplay the situation. "Xander! Xander... hey, it's okay, of course. I just had to say it, and I did. It won't ruin our friendship, right?" Xander's expression was unreadable, and he nodded curtly before turning to leave without another word. Time passed, and university life resumed its usual rhythm. However, everything began to change between Sophie and Xander. He would no longer sit with her in class, and whenever he saw her, he would quickly leave to avoid her. Sophie was hurt by his actions, and her patience finally snapped. Determined to confront him, Sophie tracked him down to the locker room. "Xander, why... are you ignoring me? Is it because of—" she began, her voice trembling slightly. But before she could finish, Xander's expression darkened, and he yelled, "Stop!!..."

~~♡♡The Runaway Bride♡♡~~ Jessica Watson, a stunning 21-year-old with raven-black hair and piercing blue eyes, was the epitome of perfection. Born into the wealthy and influential Watson family, she was destined for greatness. Her parents adored her, and her elder brother was her rock. With a successful company, Tidals, and multiple properties in her heirance, Jessica was a force to be reckoned with. She was a brilliant business administration student, a campus crush, and a topper. But what truly set her apart was her kindness, which shone brightly not just in the public eye but also in the quiet moments when no one was watching. Jessica's daily life was a testament to her compassionate nature. She would often stop her Rolls-Royce to help an elderly woman cross the road or buy a meal for a hungry child at a café. Unbeknownst to her, these acts of kindness caught the attention of Felix Graham, a man with a mysterious aura. Felix, with his chiseled features and piercing green eyes, was a successful businessman and the CEO of Pantheon, a multimillion-dollar company. But what the world didn't know was that he was also the infamous "Mafia King," feared by the government and respected by his peers. One day, Jessica's life took an unexpected turn when Felix walked into her favorite café, "Butter Story." Their introduction was effortless, and they quickly found themselves in a whirlwind romance. As Jessica graduated, and took over the company "Tidal" and, as their relationship blossomed like roses, Felix proposed to Jessica, and she accepted. Her parents approved, and within a month, Felix was standing at the altar, waiting for his precious bride, for whom he carried love and... "obsession"... crazy obsession. Who would've thought that, the blooming roses would soon freeze? On the day of their wedding, Jessica's father discovered Felix's dark secret: he was the Mafia King, a ruthless and cunning individual who would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. Horrified, Jessica's father begged her to flee, to escape the danger that Felix posed. "Father... but I love him... for him... not for his profession," Jessica pleaded. "I don't care! What I care for is your safety, my precious gem! Go! Flee away! Your elder brother is far away from here[US], in Japan right now. Go to him," her father urged, sending her to her elder brother, Zack Watson, a successful businessman residing in Japan. As Jessica sat on her private jet, her father gave her final instructions: "Keep a low profile! I'm changing your number and deleting all your accounts. No need to work in your company for some time, at least. When everything is settled, I'll inform you. Take care, my precious gem!" Meanwhile, Felix stood at the altar, waiting for his bride. As the minutes ticked by, he grew restless. When he realized Jessica ran away, his expression darkened. "Don't worry, Felix, I hope you'll find someone else," Jessica's father said, feigning concern. "There is no one else, there was no one else, and there won't ever be someone else," Felix declared, his voice firm. "She was different, she was my love, my life... and my obsession." He clenched his fist, crushing the bouquet in his hand. "I won't let her go... I'll find her." He would say under his breath. Felix's search began, spanning every part of the city, county, and continent. When he couldn't find her in America, he expanded his search to other continents. Meanwhile, Jessica was living in Japan with her elder brother Zack, in his mansion. It had been three months since she'd fled, and she couldn't shake off the memories of Felix. Though relieved that he couldn't find her, her heart still ached for him. As she sat on the couch with her brother, the bell rang, and Zack went to answer it... {Jessica- 21. Felix- 25}
