[18+] Sleeping with my best friend was something that shouldn’t have happened. We made a promise to each other when we were young, but it was long forgotten, at least by him, but not by me. I didn’t forget that he was my prince charming. He dated girls, which I didn’t mind because I was still underage. We slept in the same bed until this date, but we have never crossed the line. The problem started when his fiancée failed to appear for their wedding, and I had to play the role of his bride for the day just to save his face. That was the date everything changed. We had the steamiest night, and he told me it shouldn’t have happened because he was dating my best friend, Candice. That struck me dead in the gut. I should have known that our promises were long forgotten. He took my innocence and told me it shouldn’t have happened. That hurts, but nothing hurts more than learning you’re pregnant with your best friend’s child and you can’t tell him because he is in love with your friend. “Hi! My name is Lola.” He grinned. “My name is Dante.” “May I join you in a game?” “How old are you?” I gave him a puppy-dog expression. “You’re so adorable when you do that,” he observed. “I am nine years old.” “Well. I’m a sixteen-year-old, do you wish to play with your older brother?” I gave a nod. Just like that, I started playing with a 16-year-old. I was his little sister and he was my big brother. We grew up to be best friends. Everything was shared. We continue to share a bed to this day.

A brutal survivalist. A ruthless billionaire. And a marriage contract that was supposed to be a gilded cage... until she decided to move in and redecorate. After surviving two brutal years in a post-apocalyptic wasteland fighting monsters, Laura Lind is finally back in her original body. The catch? Her family has gone bankrupt, and they’ve sold her off to Julian Hayes—the notoriously cold, controlling, and terrifying CEO of Crestview Enterprises. According to the original rumor mill, Laura is supposed to hate her new life. She is supposed to fight the 24/7 surveillance, resent her bodyguards, and desperately plot a divorce, only to end up miserable. But Laura looks at her plush king-sized bed, her unlimited black card, and her yacht, and asks herself: Why on earth would I ever leave? Having fought for her life every single day, a life of doing absolutely nothing while a handsome billionaire pays the bills is her literal paradise. If Julian wants to "monitor" her, fine. He can do the heavy lifting. Besides, nobody knows she is secretly the genius mastermind behind Zephyr Capital, the wealthiest investment firm in the country. When Laura reluctantly agrees to appear on a celebrity couple's reality show, the internet prepares to pity the "miserable, caged wife." Instead, they are treated to the ultimate power dynamic shift: The Audit: Julian calls to check on her three times a day. Laura video-calls him back, forces the terrifying CEO to watch her try on thirty-two designer outfits, and demands a unique, ten-line compliment for each. The Vetting: Julian tries to restrict her contact list. Laura forwards every handsome stranger who tries to flirt with her directly to Julian’s personal line for "husband vetting." But when Laura’s family suddenly recovers their fortune and the "rightful" woman appears, Laura decides her retirement era is over. She packs her bags and sighs, "I understand, Julian. I’ll pack up and leave so you two can be happy." But the ruthless billionaire slams the door shut, locking her in his arms with a dark, obsessive gaze. "Say 'husband' again, Laura. Because you are never leaving this room."
