Marriage First, Love Second

Synopsis In a world ruled by Alphas and bloodlines, she was born to obey—quiet, loyal, invisible. Until the night fate bound her to him. He is the strongest Alpha of his generation—dominant, feared, and ruthless to those who betray him. Power answers to his command, and the system that governs the werewolf world recognizes him as a rising overlord destined to reshape the hierarchy. She was never meant to stand at his side. But betrayal awakens something dormant within her, triggering a hidden system that begins to rewrite her destiny. What starts as first love quickly turns into a dangerous game of secrets, power, and survival, where every choice comes with a cost—and every bond can be weaponized. As ancient rules are challenged and rival forces emerge, their connection becomes both a weakness and a source of unimaginable strength. Trust is fragile. Love is forbidden. And in a world where only the strongest survive, tragedy is never far behind. To rise, they must defy fate itself. And in doing so, they may either rule the world together—or destroy it.

He was once the Void Emperor. A name that made the world tremble. Until the night he was betrayed. Poisoned. Broken. Left for dead, his power sealed, his past erased. For five years, Leon lived as nothing. A useless son-in-law, trampled and discarded. But when fate drags him back from the edge of death, everything changes. His memories return. His power begins to awaken. And the man they buried rises again. Now bound in a contract marriage with a mysterious heiress, and with his enemies still lurking in the shadows, Leon begins his rise once more. Leon will hunt down every enemy who dared to touch his family. They wanted him gone. Now they’ll wish he stayed dead.

What if the man they call worthless could buy and sell them all with a single phone call? For three gruelling years, Romeo Martinez has endured every humiliation the wealthy Chen family could dish out—scrubbing their floors, serving their guests, and sleeping in the servants' quarters while his ice-cold wife Emma treats him like he's invisible. They call him worthless, a charity case who married above his station, a man who contributes nothing but shame to their declining empire. They have no idea that the quiet janitor cleaning their mansion is about to inherit a trillion-dollar business empire that could crush them without a second thought. When a mysterious phone call on his 28th birthday reveals that Romeo is the hidden heir to Phoenix Empire, everything changes. His suppressed memories return, his combat training awakens, and suddenly the man who couldn't fight back has unlimited resources, deadly allies, and a burning need for justice. The same criminal organization that murdered his parents is now targeting the Chen family—and only Romeo can save them. But saving Emma means protecting the woman who's spent three years breaking his heart, while destroying his enemies means embracing a power that could corrupt the gentle soul she fell in love with but never knew she had. As Romeo navigates boardrooms and battlefields with equal skill, one question haunts every calculated move: Can a man reclaim his throne without losing the woman whose love he's never truly won?

Aella “whirlwind” Harlow was looking at the screen of her phone with earbuds on, the live speech of Aniya Rossi in the United Nations. She sighed and mumbled when it ended, “Dumbass… Werewolves accepted by society, protectors, helping Humanity achieve greatness. Yeah, greatness my butt! A good Werewolf is a dead Werewolf! Spoiled brat… Stupid bitch…” She checked her quiver, counting the darts still there. A quick glance at the pistol crossbow on the left side of her belt, and at the Ruger gun inside the holster under her left armpit. Grabbing her faithful Labrys, a double edge axe, was the last thing she did before hearing a howl nearby. Aella frowned and mumbled, “Showtime…” (It is the sequel of "The Flesh-Eating Werewolf", set 20 years in the future, but can be read as a stand alone, but with minor mentions to events in the first story, and some previous characters that will appear in this story.)

The year 2094. All was chaos. The apocalypse. The Fall. The end of the world. That was what the history books called it. On the first day of "The End", they said the sky and it's firmament 'fell' first, bridging the boundary between the day and night. The second day, the ground withered. The third day, the oceans boiled and drained. The fourth, the earth shook. By the fifth, half of humanity was wiped out. . . . July 23rd of the year 2043, humanity faced their 'first' invasion from the Elder Gods.

In the midst of pouring rain, Leon Carter sits alone, drowning in despair over his crumbling life. Once madly in love with Sophia Winters, the girl who vowed to marry him or no one else, he now faces her icy indifference, her parents' disdain, and a marriage reduced to ashes. When a strange message flashes on his phone—"Do you want to change your fate? Y/N"—Leon hesitates, dismissing it as a hallucination. But something compels him to press “Y,” unlocking a mysterious “Life Advancement System.” His first task seems trivial—run two miles—but the reward, a flood of financial knowledge, feels too real to ignore. Returning to the mansion he shares with Sophia’s family, he’s confronted with divorce papers and an offer to leave with a settlement. To their shock, Leon rejects it all, walking away with nothing but quiet defiance. As he steps into the rain, his phone buzzes again: “Congratulations. Task complete. Reward: A mansion unlocked".

Now, he was seen as a common ex-convict with no future, and due to a one-night stand out of tipsiness, he found himself getting into a contract marriage with a pitiful but beautiful CEO.
