Winning Lucy Back: The CEO Who Refuses to Lose Her Again

Lucy has spent the last three years raising Stella and John on her own, far from the ruthless world of business and the emotional devastation that once destroyed her. After a tragic event that shattered her relationship, she walked away from Marcus Hale—the only man she ever loved, and the CEO whose obsession with success left her facing the darkness alone. Now, Lucy runs a warm, bustling little bakery that has become the heart of her neighborhood. She wants no more heartbreak, no more chaos, no more emotional disasters. Only stability. Until Marcus returns. Now one of the most powerful CEOs in the high-end culinary industry, Marcus acquires the building where Lucy’s bakery is located. Expecting a simple investment deal, he is stunned to find Lucy behind the counter. And utterly destroyed when he meets Stella and John… His children. The shock is brutal. The guilt suffocates him. The love he buried erupts violently to the surface. This time, Marcus will stop at nothing to win Lucy back, regain her trust, and earn a place in the lives of the children he didn’t know existed. Between old wounds, new threats, business wars, moments of tenderness, comic relief, emotional breakdowns, mature romance, and deeply charged nights, their story will rise from the ashes—but only if Lucy dares to open her heart again. In a world where ambition clashes with vulnerability, Marcus must learn to become the man, the partner, and the father worth fighting for.

A Saint And A Sinner

Note: I'll be posting this story on https://www.royalroad.com/profile/820403/fictions and Dreame App “You shouldn’t be out here tonight.” The words weren’t a warning—they were a vow. Vincent Moretti’s voice was low, steady, carrying the weight of a man used to bending the world to his will. To Jennifer Lawrence, it felt like both a shield and a cage. At twenty-three, Jennifer has only ever known survival. Abandoned to an orphanage, dropped out of school at seventeen, she grew up with no family, no future, and no way out. The streets became her battlefield, and the night her cruelest master. Selling pieces of herself kept her alive, but it hollowed her—leaving a woman who aches for love yet no longer believes she deserves it. Vincent, thirty-four, has everything except peace. A billionaire built on discipline and ruthlessness, his empire gleams while his heart fractures. A bitter divorce threatens not only his fortune but the legacy his family name was built on. And then—in the middle of a storm—he meets Jennifer. Not as a client, but as a man whose brokenness recognizes her own. Their worlds should never touch. His is a golden cage of wealth and expectation; hers, a shadowed fight for dignity. But the spark between them is too fierce to ignore—dangerous, consuming, forbidden. Society will condemn it. His name could be destroyed. And her past might ruin them both. Yet in the ashes of what they’ve lost, love may be the only thing powerful enough to save them…or burn them alive.

Whispers of Destiny (LingOrm) - LGBT GL

In the heart of Bangkok, where tradition and ambition intertwined like the threads of a silk tapestry, two lives stood on the cusp of collision. Lingling Kwong, at 25, was a name whispered in the glittering nightlife of the city—a casanova with a trail of broken hearts, her charm as intoxicating as the neon lights of Sukhumvit. Heir to the Kwong Empire, she wielded her sharp wit and magnetic allure like weapons, never lingering long enough for love to take root. Her world was one of fleeting pleasures, where commitments were as ephemeral as the champagne bubbles at her lavish parties. Yet, beneath her polished exterior, a quiet restlessness stirred—a yearning she refused to name. Across the city, in a jasmine-scented suburb, Orm Kornnaphat, 23, lived a life of quiet duty. The daughter of a prominent textile family. . Orm's days were filled with the soft hum of tradition—helping her mother weave intricate patterns, attending social functions with a practiced smile, and suppressing the flicker of longing for a life less scripted. Engaged to Krit Amnuaydechkorn, a 28-year-old businessman from an allied family, Orm's future was mapped out: a stable marriage to secure alliances, children to carry the legacy, and a life of predictable comfort. Krit, with his weekly roses and controlling demeanor—dictating her wardrobe, her guest lists—saw her as his prize, his possessive affection a cage she accepted with resignation. Yet, in the quiet moments, Orm's heart whispered of dreams—vibrant, untamed desires she dared not voice. Unseen by either, the threads of their fates were being woven together by forces beyond their control. The Kwong and Kornnaphat families, rivals for decades, faced a crossroads—merge their legacies or risk mutual ruin in a shifting economic tide. Over late-night meetings and tense negotiations, a radical solution emerged: an arranged marriage between their heirs. Not just any union, but one that would bind Lingling, the untamed playgirl, to Orm, the dutiful daughter, in a bond meant to seal peace and prosperity. As the city pulsed with its endless rhythm, neither woman knew of the storm approaching—a union that would challenge their hearts, unravel their defenses, and ignite a love neither expected. In the shadow of duty, destiny was spinning a tale of chaos, passion, and redemption, ready to draw them into its embrace, with Krit's resentment simmering as a dark undercurrent, ready to draw them into its embrace.

I nearly stumbled when my gaze fell on her sexy long legs, and her wild curly hair added a fierce appeal. She looks like sin.

She bit her lips stirring up a strong urge to brush my lips on hers, devouring her lips with the craving desire surging up in me.

VIPERS ,VOWS AND VENGEENCE

On her wedding day, Kristen discovers Finn’s infidelity and decisively calls off the marriage. Finn sneers, “Kristen, do you really think you can survive in showbiz without me? Don’t be naive.” Kristen still blocks his WeChat, phone number, and every other contact. Finn waits carelessly for Kristen to come crawling back—until he realizes… Luxury endorsements, hit variety shows, invitations from top directors—Kristen’s resources soar so high that haters spread rumors she’s latched onto a powerful man, even that she’s had a secret child. At last Finn can’t sit still and goes to confront her—only to run into his good brother, Jason. Jason, president of the Jin City Group, a towering figure in the Capital’s circle and a business titan, keeps a low profile for years, yet online chatter about him never stops. More importantly, he and Finn have been friends for many years. Late at night, the two men meet at her apartment door—and come to blows. Eyes red, Finn grits out, “Jason, she’s my fiancée!” Jason straightens his collar with lazy precision and reminds him, “She used to be.” Finn moves to swing again when the tightly shut door opens. Kristen leans there, languid. “Finished? Come in and help me peel a pomegranate.” Finn’s face lights up. “Kris, I knew you wouldn’t—” Before he can finish, Jason has already stepped inside ahead of him, changing into a pair of black house slippers identical to the ones on Kristen’s feet. Before the door closes, Jason’s voice drops a frosty line: “Next time we meet, remember to call her sister-in-law.” Once the door clicks shut, Jason pins Kristen against it in a heated kiss, fingertips brushing the tear mole at her eye as his voice turns hoarse. “Tell me—him or me?”
