The most helpless thing in Aria's life was that Grayson had always been ignoring her during the six years of their marriage. And Grayson's greatest chagrin in his life was that Aria had finally become disillusioned with him after he had been her husband for six years. "Grayson, let's end it..." "Aria, do you know that? I regretted that I didn't screw you to death in bed!" Six years of marriage finally ended up with divorce. Grayson was the president of the famous Harris Group in Z City and a golden bachelor that countless women dreamed of. He fell in love with her after only taking a look at her, who was as pretty as a picture in a white dress. However, a marriage of interest exhausted all his love for her. He gave her tit for tat at every turn to watch her suffer. Aria could not remember when she had fallen in love with Grayson. She vaguely remembered the teenager had smiled faintly under the sunlight on the street one afternoon, like a warm spring breeze blowing into her heart. Three years after the divorce, they met again, but in an awkward way. He had Zoe with a bright smile in his arms. While she nestled against Lucas's shoulder with a light smile. For the first time, he was just about to provoke her when she pre-empted him, "It's been a long time. This is my fiancé, Lucas. Our wedding is on the 12th of next month." Wedding? At these words, he thought in his heart that there was no way she could get married!
Aria opened her eyes with a splitting headache. With her eyes downcast, she found herself lying on the bed and her skin was covered with dense red marks.
The memories of the night before came to her mind like a movie prologue.
She vaguely remembered the heat and frenzy when Grayson kissed her, the strength and dominance when he entered her body, and the low and cold voice ringing in her ears.
"You want to end it? No problem, but I want your body as compensation for the past six years!"
Aria could not have expected that the first time Grayson touched her since she had been his wife for six years was like this, he did it in equivalent exchange. He wanted her body and she wanted him to let her go.
She lowered her eyes and hid her head between her curled-up legs, feeling a terrible pain from her lower body, together with a slight ache in her heart.
In the night of passion, he was like a greedy hunter who could not get enough and tortured her terribly.
Her eyes turned red with bits of tears glittering in them.
Her legs were so weak that she almost fell to the ground when she scrambled out of bed.
The slight sound woke up the man behind her.
Aria was startled. She looked up and came into Grayson's sight by surprise.
The cold eyes were deep as a bottomless lake, not at all like the drowsiness and confusion of being woken up in the morning.
Aria blushed scarlet when the passion of the night before rose in her mind. She picked up the clothes on the ground and staggered to the bathroom.
The inky pupil reflected the appearance of the woman fleeing in despair like a small animal. Grayson's brow furrowed and his eyes swept around the room after he collected himself.
The air was filled with the smell of hormones and the clothes scattered all over the floor showed the madness of last night.
"Grayson, let's end it..."
"This is a deal between us. It's not good for you and me to go on like this. I'm tired. You can just sign it..." The woman's words seemed to be in his ear.
It was nearly early morning when he came back drunk from socializing. He took out the key and opened the door of the villa.
The first thing he saw was Aria, who was staring at him in perplexity under the bright light.
Divorce?!
The word exploded like a bomb in his mind.
Hearing her words, flames of fury surged into his body.
There was something sinister in his black eyes. He kicked over the coat rack in front of him, which then fell to the ground with a loud noise.
The tall and burly figure quickly approached Aria and dragged her into the room before she could resist.
Returning to the present moment, Grayson's eyes were as cold as frost.
Unexpectedly, his tolerance for six years collapsed at once when she said that word.
Grayson suddenly got up and strode towards the bathroom.
Warm water flowed along the top of Aria's head to her neck, waist, and abdomen...
When cleaning her lower body, she couldn't help shivering. She inexplicably recalled the scene she ran into that day.
And what Zoe said to her.
Aria felt a tingly sensation in her heart.
Just then, there was a loud noise at the door.
She turned back immediately and saw Grayson rushing to her face with a gloomy face. At the moment when she was absent-minded, he pressed her shoulder against the cold wall.
Aria groaned as the pain from her back stimulated her pain nerves.
She realized that the man put his hand on the wall above the right of her head, his shadow enveloped her, and the strong pressure made her breathless.
His tanned skin and strong chest came into her view.
Aria flushed instantly and lowered her head in panic, not to look at Grayson's indifferent and frightening face.
"Last night... you... I..."
Aria did not dare to look Grayson in the eye and her voice faltered, but the sentence she said was very fluent, " Can we divorce now..."
Damn it! This word seemed to have become taboo for him.
He raised his hand and gripped her neck. A dangerous light flashed through his black pupils, extremely indifferent.
"Aria, do you hate me so much that you would not hesitate to leave me at the cost of your body?" The hoarse voice was without any temperature.
He sneered and lifted his eyes with disdain in them.
Aria was stunned at his words and a bitterness spread in her throat, which made her speechless.
She had thought...
When she asked for a divorce, he would agree without even thinking about it.
From now on...
They would never see each other again.
However, unexpectedly, Grayson was so angry.
She didn't understand.
Didn't he want to divorce her long ago? In this way, he could be together with his beloved.
"Do you want to divorce? No way! Don't forget that it was your family that begged me to marry you back then. Now that Wilson Group has turned the corner and you want to kick down the ladder. Are you too naive?"
Aria lowered her head and did not speak, but a contemptuous laugh came from above her head. "Why? Am I wrong?"
Still, she was silent...
With a deep frown, Grayson said word by word with chilling ruthlessness. "Aria, tell me, what have I given you and what have I got since you married me six years ago?"
"I am a businessman and I do not do unprofitable business. I gave you what you wanted. What about the things I want?"
A high-society romance where pretense turned into reality. Van, the heir to a top-tier fortune and a regular on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, had been mocked for being perpetually single, with even rumors swirling about his "dysfunction." Winnie, a Hollywood superstar desperate to escape her constant barrage of scandals, encountered this billionaire worth tens of billions. To her surprise, Van presented her with an unexpected proposal: "Pretend to date me for a year. You won't have to do anything else. I'll pay you $100 million after taxes." She planned to laugh it off but couldn't ignore the man's chiseled features-the way his shadowed face was lit up as he casually raised an eyebrow and lit a cigarette in the glow of firelight, his voice steady and laced with danger. She remembered their first meeting in a torrential downpour-the man reclining in a silver Maybach, eyes half-closed, exuding charm yet utterly unattainable. She also remembered later, when everyone had believed him to be unshakable and untouchable, he had appeared alone, worn and weary, at her remote desert film set, quietly asking: "Do you really have to shoot this kiss scene?" Behind this contract lay something far deeper than money-a fixation, a love that had turned real, or perhaps an irresistible force neither of them had recognized. $100 million had set the stage for a high-stakes battle of love and hate that would ultimately unravel.

'Sir, this card is rejected either!" Vanessa's eyes crossed with a trace of pity. Such a beautiful man was a penniless vagrant. But, luckily, he met her.

Aaron Anderson looked down and saw a fair arm stretched out from behind him. The girl was extremely good-looking, just looked cold. He raised an eyebrow, and for the first time in his life, he had the illusion of being a kept man.

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club.

Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
