The Billionaire's Secret Bump

In the glittering, high-stakes world of Aurelia Bay’s beauty empire, Fiona Flare’s life shatters on what was meant to be her engagement night. Dumped by her fiancé for someone “more aligned with his trajectory,” she drowns her heartbreak in vodka and neon at the exclusive Eclipse Lounge. There, in a haze of bass and shadows, she collides with a mysterious stranger—tall, commanding, storm-gray eyes, hands that know exactly how to unravel her. No names. No promises. Just one raw, unforgettable night of passion that leaves her marked, aching, and blissfully unaware of who he really is. Weeks later, two pink lines on a pregnancy test turn her world upside down. Single, jobless, and determined, Fiona vows to raise the baby alone—no handouts, no hunting for the man who vanished at dawn. But fate has other plans. Unknowingly, Fiona lands a dream job at Voss Éclat—the city’s dominant beauty conglomerate—run by none other than Martin Mole, the enigmatic CEO who still dreams of emerald silk and the woman who slipped out of his bed without a trace. As Fiona rises in the company, sparks fly during tense meetings and late-night strategy sessions. Martin recognizes her instantly but keeps his distance, watching, waiting, torn between his guarded heart and the fierce woman carrying his child. What starts as corporate tension ignites into forbidden desire, corporate sabotage, family secrets, and a slow-burn revelation that could destroy everything—or build an empire stronger than either of them imagined. A story of heartbreak turned fire, one reckless night turned legacy, and two people who must decide whether to fight fate… or finally surrender to it. Secret baby. Slow-burn chemistry. Power, passion, and a bump neither saw coming.

The only daughter of Alex Besson, an influential businessman, and Asaël, a strong and loving woman, Esther has always grown up surrounded by love, strong values, and high expectations. Trained from a very young age to one day take over the family business, she moves through life with calmness, intelligence, and remarkable maturity. When her parents entrust her with leading a strategic meeting abroad, Esther has no idea that this journey will turn her entire life upside down. What was meant to be a simple business merger becomes a political and emotional trap: the family company must unite with that of the Arrisons, led by Jon Arrison, her father’s longtime best friend. But the real shock comes from Tony Arrison. Cold, distant, arrogant, and mysterious, Tony is the heir to the Arrison empire. Forced by his father to marry Esther in order to ensure the continuity and stability of the company, he accepts an arranged marriage he never chose. Esther, on her side, discovers that this engagement is the only way to protect her family and her future, after being betrayed by Malik, the man she thought she loved—manipulated by his father’s hatred and thirst for revenge.

He shields himself behind a wall of ice. She responds with dignity, respect, and a quiet strength that gradually disarms every attack. In a world where business dictates feelings, where alliances are sealed through marriage, and where past grudges threaten the future, Esther must learn to make a choice: submit to her destiny or transform it. What if this forced marriage, born of constraint and conflict, were to slowly become a place of rebirth, healing… and perhaps an unexpected love?

How to Tame a Snake: The Weasel’s Case

“P-Please... give me a chance. I-I like you, Mr. Kang.” In a world where humans and anthropomorphs coexist, discrimination isn’t just common—it’s an everyday reality. Yueul, a weasel anthropomorph, is drowning in debt after being deceived by his ex-boyfriend into committing illegal acts. Prejudice against anthropomorphs makes stability impossible, as he’s fired from one job after another. Then, an unexpected opportunity arises: if Yueul can work alongside Wooheon, a black mamba anthropomorph, and “fix” his abrasive personality, Wooheon’s older brother promises to pay off all of Yueul’s debts. “Thank you for the offer. I’m not sure if I can meet your standards, but I’ll do my best.” Terrified of black mambas but even more terrified of his crushing debt, Yueul reluctantly accepts. Yet on his very first day, he’s already teetering on the edge of being fired. Desperate to keep the job, Yueul blurts out a reckless lie—that he likes Wooheon and wants to stay by his side. But Wooheon, fully aware of Yueul’s lie, retracts the dismissal with a twist: he suggests they live together, determined to push Yueul into quitting on his own. As if that weren’t bad enough, Yueul soon discovers Wooheon’s unusual way of managing stress: sex. And the room assigned to Yueul? It happens to be Wooheon’s designated “sex-only” space. “S-So if I use that room, does that mean you can’t have sex...?” “Why? Do you want to take their place?” “...If you’re okay with being with a guy... then I’m fine with it.” With Wooheon’s perfectionism driving him to collapse under extreme stress, Yueul wants to help—but definitely not like this! Still, the fear of exposing his lie about liking Wooheon keeps Yueul tangled in his own deception, desperately trying to maintain the facade. Knowing Yueul’s confession is a lie, Wooheon relentlessly pushes him further, testing how long he can endure. What started as a desperate lie to escape his debts has thrown Yueul into a chaotic power struggle. Can he survive life under the same roof with Wooheon and somehow tame his impossible personality? #BL #Fantasy #Modern #Anthropomorph Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by Spicychili All right reserved.

REBORN INTO A CROWN OF LIES

Nothing wounds a woman more deeply than betrayal. On what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, Camille Monroe was murdered. Her lifeless body was thrown into the ocean, still wearing the wedding gown she was meant to walk down the aisle in. The ones behind it were not strangers, but the people she trusted most—her fiancé and her half-sister. “I’m Camille Monroe… or perhaps I should say, Tessa Lynn Voss.” Once upon a time, she believed in love. She trusted it blindly, cherished it deeply, until it revealed itself as nothing more than a cruel illusion built on lies. “I loved you, Nancy… and this is how you repay me?” she had once asked, her voice breaking. Nancy only laughed. “Love? That nonsense? I call it entertainment.” That was the moment everything shattered. But death was not the end for Camille Monroe. Fate gave her something far more dangerous than mercy—a second chance. She woke up in a new body, a new identity… and a new life. Now she is Tessa Lynn Voss. Wealth. Power. Influence. Everything she once lacked is now at her fingertips. But beneath it all burns one purpose—revenge. Tessa is no longer the woman who begged to be loved. She is the storm born from betrayal. But fate is not done with her yet. She is bound in a marriage to a man she barely knows, already entangled with three mistresses—Claire, Monica, and Selena. None are willing to accept her quietly. Surrounded by jealousy, lies, and secrets, Tessa realizes her new life is not freedom—it is a battlefield. Because here, love is a cage… and family is the deadliest enemy. They thought Camille was gone forever. But she is back. And this time, she came to destroy them
