Kidnapped by Love: My Ex Left , but a Mob Taught Him

I was kidnapped, but my ex Calvin Thornton dismissed it as a ploy to pressure him. His cruel words-offering ransom to "teach me a lesson"-left me desperate. Jasper Lancaster, a powerful figure, rescued me. Amidst danger, we grew close, and I chose him over Calvin. When Calvin later regretted, begging me to return and even risking his life to retrieve a tossed ring, I'd already moved on. Wearing Jasper's ring, I made clear my choice: I'd found someone who valued me, and Calvin's belated apologies couldn't undo the past. My heart now belongs to Jasper, and I'll never look back.

Chapter 2

The receiver crackled into dead air, the silence stretching like a frayed wire until-click.

The three kidnappers exchanged looks.

Three figures tensed against the gloom. The youngest kidnapper, his baseball cap askew, clawed at his scalp so hard his nails scraped skin. "Rowan-" His voice cracked like ice on concrete. "That Thornton guy-he gonna send the cavalry or what?"

"That line-'as long as you dare touch her'-sounded more like a threat to us, didn't it?"

The one called Rowan gritted his teeth viciously:

"Who cares what he meant!"

"We're in it for the money anyway!"

"This woman is the Thornton family's officially acknowledged fiancée, announced in the news just yesterday."

"As long as we record a video of her-"

"There's no way Calvin Thornton won't pay up!"

As he spoke, Rowan pulled a white handkerchief from his pocket.

Without giving me any chance to resist, he held my head down and pressed it over my nose.

A strange scent instantly flooded my nostrils, making my head spin.

With a sharp tearing sound, my shirt was ripped open.

Above me, Rowan's voice was full of gritted fury:

"Stop wasting time. Let's play with her!"

"But Rowan," the young one hesitated,

"we originally planned to just keep her two days."

"Now Calvin Thornton's not even in a rush to rescue her."

"I'm worried. if this drags out, and the young master finds out-"

Rowan spat out his cigarette and cursed:

"So what if he finds out?"

"You really believe he's going to help us turn over a new leaf and go clean?"

"He's just putting on a show because he's newly in charge!"

"The Lancaster family's been in the underworld for years. If we go legit, what's he gonna eat and drink? Use your head!"

"If it really comes to it, we'll just offer her to him."

"He's way better at breaking people than we are!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

The warehouse door was suddenly flung open.

A tall man in a black coat stepped inside slowly,followed by several burly bodyguards.

His pale eyes swept over them. His voice was a soft scoff:

"How about I let you try my way of breaking someone, right now?"

The three kidnappers trembled all over.

In perfect sync, they dropped to their knees before him.

"Y-Young Master."

Rowan, face pale, quickly pointed at me.

"We found you a woman, sir. She's a firecracker! L-Look!"

"We already drugged her. She's ready to use."

The man frowned.

His gaze flicked to me.

A dark shadow passed through his eyes.

That devastatingly handsome face somehow made every hair on my body stand on end.

Even though the drug's heat was beginning to stir within me,

I still couldn't help but shiver and curl up in fear.

The man raised an eyebrow slightly.Then he walked over and crouched in front of me.

He pulled a folding knife from his pocket.

His cold voice-to me, it was even chillier than the blade's gleam:

"This'll hurt. Hold still."

"I'll send you off now."

Send. send me off?

Contract With A Monster: The Heiress's Revenge

8.6

It was my birthday, but instead of celebrating, I was bleeding on the floor of my own bedroom. My sister Serena had just smashed a champagne bottle over my legs, her eyes filled with a dark madness because our father allowed me to wear the family diamonds. To escape her, I bolted into a pitch-black guest suite, only to be grabbed by a man who felt like a wall of solid muscle. He was drugged, unstable, and pinned me against the wall, his teeth sinking into my neck in a primal claim that left a permanent mark. I managed to flee, but the nightmare was just beginning. My father didn't care about my injuries; he only cared that I had "insulted" the man in that room—Delos French, the most powerful CEO in New York. He threatened to stop paying for my mother’s critical care facility unless I went to Delos and begged for his forgiveness. My brother Julian was even worse, intentionally pouring scalding coffee over my bandaged wounds just to see me flinch. They forced me into a revealing gold dress, treating me like a high-priced commodity to be sold to the highest bidder to save their failing company. I didn't understand how the people who were supposed to love me could be more predatory than the monster in the dark. I had spent my life fixing their scandals, yet they were ready to throw me to the wolves the moment I became useful as a pawn. But when I stood before Delos French at his gala, he didn't see a trophy. He recognized my scent, my touch, and the fire in my eyes. He trapped me in his private lounge, kneeling to clean the blood from my injured feet. "Marry me," he whispered, his voice a low, terrifying growl. "And I will give you the power to burn your family to the ground." I looked into the eyes of the man who had hunted me and realized he was the only one offering me a weapon to destroy the people who had broken me. "Okay," I whispered.

Genius Wife's Revenge: Too Late For Regret

7.7

For two years, I played the role of the "Midwestern mistake," the mousey wife Julian Ford-Sterling IV kept hidden like a shameful secret. I hid my true self behind thick glasses and ashen foundation, acting as the perfect, cowed charity case while he lived a life of marble and indifference. The day our marriage contract ended, the headlines were already screaming about his affair with Hollywood’s sweetheart, Lana Vane. Julian didn't even grant me a final conversation; he simply sent his legal team to hand me divorce papers that gave me nothing—no alimony, no shares, just a non-disclosure agreement and a one-way ticket out of his life. I signed the papers and walked away, but a drugged encounter in a dark club that same night led me back into his arms. We collided in the shadows, two strangers stripped of their titles, but I fled before dawn, accidentally leaving behind my vintage silver locket. By the time I reached my secret design studio the next morning, I discovered Julian had executed a hostile takeover of my entire life’s work. To my horror, Lana Vane was already there, clutching my stolen locket and shamelessly claiming she was the woman Julian had spent the night with. Julian stood before me in his charcoal suit, looking at me with total lack of recognition. To him, I was just a "gold-digging" architect he had bought along with the furniture. I watched them together, the man who had discarded me and the woman who had stolen my identity, realizing that Julian was obsessed with the genius of "Rose" while despising the woman who stood right in front of him. He had no idea that the wife he’d just divorced was the very person he was now desperate to control. I straightened my spine, my violet-blue eyes cold and lethal behind my new designer frames. "Mr. Ford-Sterling, you wanted the best designer in the city? You’ve got her. But you should know—I don't just build empires. I know exactly how to tear them down."
