The world knows Max Verstappen: the champion, the fighter, the storm behind the wheel. But behind every race win, there's someone standing quietly in the shadows - his 13- year-old sister, Tess. She doesn't race. She doesn't need to. Tess is the one thing the paddock never expected: a girl raised behind closed doors, trained to smile through pressure, and shaped by a father who pushed too hard. She's too smart for her age, too quiet for the cameras - and every driver on the grid would go to war for her. To them, she's the Princess of the Paddock. To Max, she's everything he ever protected. To herself, she's still figuring out who she is - in a world that loves her for the parts of her they see, not the ones she hides.

Until one night, a single lie destroyed everything. Aradhya Rajvansh was accused of a crime she never committed - the murder of her sister-in-law. In the blink of an eye, the family that once swore to protect her turned their backs. Branded a killer, shamed, and broken, she vanished from the world. Years later, she returns. Not to beg. Not to explain. But to fight - for truth, for justice, and for herself. Enter Rishav Raghuvanshi - calm, calculating, and dangerously composed. A powerful businessman with a mind like a weapon. Kind to those he loves, ruthless to everyone else. He doesn't waste words, and he doesn't believe in second chances - until her storm crashes into his silence. She's chaos in his order. He's control in her rage. Together, they're unstoppable. When truth fights back, will blood still matter? And when hearts begin to betray, will justice still win?

I froze. My heart raced as I stared at the page. The words glowed faintly before settling into the paper. "Nope. Nope. Nope," I said, backing away from the desk. My breath hitched. The book didn't move, but the words stayed there, taunting me. I grabbed it, flung it onto the floor, and screamed. "WTF" I mouthed, still staring at it in shock -------------------------------- Kim never thought much of the dusty attic, but when she discovers an ancient, mysterious book, everything changes.

Angel's Yellow Brick Road. a billionaires love. by Othniellastar

Angel was just betrayed by the love of her life, the man she's always loved since she was a teenager, and she asks the first man she comes across for a dangerous request. But can she handle the consequences if Sebastian accepts her offer? After all, he has always wanted to have her. "Cats got your tongue now that the lights are on Miss Dubois?" He knew who she was! Of course he did! They attended the same school after all. They just never had a reason to hold a conversation before. Sebastian was the high and mighty king that all the girls fawned over while Angel was only a girl who did not have the right to belong to the world of the wealthy. Angel cleared her throat. She was not going to be intimidated by this man now that she had nothing else to lose. "Sleep with me!" Angel blurted. He sat up on the side of the bed and watched her. "Are you gonna take it off?" She was now standing awkwardly in front of him, now realizing she wasn't sure she was ready to strip in front of a stranger. "I didn't mean to wear this dress, I could've sworn I entered my own changing room. I didn't even know you had a date tonight, I just-" Angel was wondering off and began to ask herself why she was in this private room with a man that was already taken. But Sebastian didn't care about her blabbering. "Take it off!" He ordered. Angel shook with a fearful surprise. He wanted her to take it off? "Right now?" she asked. In front of him?
