He needed a fake fiancée in two weeks. She needed money to survive the month. It was supposed to be simple. It was supposed to be temporary. It was supposed to mean nothing. Zara Eze is broke, stubborn, and selling jollof rice by the roadside just to pay her rent. Adrian Nwosu is rich, powerful, and desperately needs a woman to pretend to love him before his dying grandfather takes his last breath. One ruined pot of rice. One outrageous deal. Two people who were never supposed to feel anything. But Lagos has a way of turning business into something dangerously real. How long can you pretend before pretending becomes the truth? - Haryinke ZB

She was supposed to be his queen. Instead, she became his greatest mistake. Olivia Nightshade walked into the mate ceremony with hope burning in her chest. She'd waited her entire life to meet her fated mate-the one destined by the Moon Goddess herself. When Alpha King Kael Blackthorn appeared, the bond crashed into her like a tidal wave, undeniable and intoxicating. Then he looked at her with utter disdain and spoke the words that shattered her world: "I reject you." Humiliated in front of the entire pack, beaten down by the cruelty of those she trusted, Olivia fled into the wilderness with nothing but survival instinct and broken dreams. She was weak. Unworthy. Forgotten. Or so everyone believed. Deep in the dangerous forests, Olivia discovers the truth about her bloodline-she is the last descendant of the Moon Goddess herself, heir to powers thought lost for centuries. With each passing day, her abilities awaken. With each battle fought in exile, she grows stronger. By the time a hidden kingdom finds her and crowns her Luna Queen, Aria has become something far more terrifying than any Alpha. She has become unstoppable. But when ancient enemies awaken and war threatens to consume the werewolf world, Kael realises his greatest enemy is also his only salvation. The woman he discarded has become the only person capable of saving them all. And when he finally understands the truth-that he was manipulated into rejecting her, that she was never weak-it's almost too late. Olivia doesn't need Kael's redemption. She doesn't need his apologies or his desperate attempts at reconciliation. She needs him to prove he's worthy of a second chance. In a world where destiny is written in starlight and power flows through ancient bloodlines, two souls must choose between pride and love, between vengeance and forgiveness. Because sometimes the greatest power isn't in defeating your enemies-it's in choosing to love the one who hurt you most.
