My ex-boyfriend, Jason Bell, still hasn't let go of me, even though I've been married to Cedric Mosley for two years now.
He sends blood-red dancing heels to me and threatens to destroy my current "peaceful life".
Terrified and trembling, I'm about to call the cops when a hand in latex gloves rests on my shoulder.
"Don't be afraid."
My forensic doctor husband, having just returned from an autopsy, carries a faint scent of formaldehyde with him.
He takes off his glasses. With the same hands he uses to handle scalpels, he slowly helps me open the threatening letter inside the package.
"The handwriting is sloppy, with uneven pressure applied. It's typical of an anxious personality type."
Then, as if he's reviewing an autopsy report, he comments mildly, "This type of person usually has brittle bones that snap easily."
*
There are 206 bones in an adult body.
When Cedric placed a “rib” ring on my finger, he whispered, “You are the bone I lost long ago—the one that makes me whole.”
That is the origin of this title.

I, Nadine Cross, transplant the nerves from my own hands to my boyfriend's "sister", who loses the use of both her hands in an accident.
With that, Irene Sawyer's painting skills improve tremendously.
However, I lose function in both hands. I can't even lift a glass of water.
My boyfriend, Thomas Graham, tearfully promises that he will forever be grateful to me and will take care of me for the rest of my life.
Because I love him, I silently endure the agony of rehabilitation treatments.
But one day, I accidentally discover that his so-called sister, Irene, is actually his lover.
I confront him, but they tie me up.
"Since your hand nerves work so well, your optic nerves should be good too. Irene's eyesight hasn't been great lately. If you're going to help, then you should help her all the way. Give her your eyes, Nadine," Thomas demands.
I fall into despair as I watch them approach me with surgical knives.
Thomas says, "Don't hate me. You've already lost function in both hands. Your eyes won't do you much good when you're in this state. I'm just making the rational choice."
Boundless darkness descends.
When I open my eyes again, I am back at the time right before the nerve transplant surgery.
This time, I get a dog's nerves instead. 

It all starts with a single photo Avery McPherson posts on social media—one that accidentally captures Lara Womack's dog in heat.From that moment on, Avery finds herself the target of vicious slander. Using AI, someone fabricates explicit content of her and spreads it online to ruin her reputation.Determined to fight back, Avery reports the malicious defamation to authorities. However, all she gets in return are empty promises and indifferent shrugs.In growing despair, Avery finally picks up the phone and calls her husband of three years, Elijah Tarver."It's just some AI nonsense. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?" he says, his voice cold and dismissive.But almost immediately, he arranges a special press conference to clarify the situation about Lara's dog.At that very moment, a message pops up on Avery's phone. It's from her stepbrother, Walter McPherson."There's only one month left before our agreement expires. After that, it's up to you whether to stay or leave."Without thinking twice, Avery answers, "I'm leaving.""After three years of marriage, do you really have no feelings for him at all?" Walter asks, his expression a blend of surprise and relief.Everyone has always believed Avery's love for Elijah was boundless."Yes, my love for him is gone."And so has my love for you. 


“Rose, you won’t be a Breeder to one of the Alphas. You’ll be a Breeder to all four.”“All four?” The words echo around in my head, but I can’t absorb them. It just doesn’t seem possible. My parents are willing to sell me to all four of them?I’ll have to have sex with four different men?“No!” The word escapes my lips before I can even think about it, and once again, I feel the sharp blow of my father’s hand contacting my cheek.The stinging inside of me is worse than the smarting in my cheek, though. I can’t do this….My father has sold me to the king, and now, I must entertain the four candidates to become the next Alpha King. I am, after all, their breeder.Rose's parents insist she enter the contest to become the new Breeder because they need the money. They never thought she'd win. Because of her unique anatomy, Rose is the perfect candidate to take on the four Alphas. What Rose doesn't know is that the current Alpha King isn't really in this for the right reasons. In fact, he may not want a new heir at all. As she finds herself falling in love with all four of the men, she realizes not only is she in danger, but so are they. Will Rose and her four Alphas succeed in making babies and claiming the throne, or will the evil Alpha King prevail? 

Caroline was rejected by her mate of four years, because she was scentless.A flaw no werewolf could accept. Her mate proposed to her cousin instead.That night, heartbroken and humiliated,she let her best friend drag her to a masquerade ball.She gave herself to a masked Alpha, mysterious and devastatingly handsome.They didn't exchange names. Just one wild night of hard kisses and rough touches. He pinned her against the wall, his powerful body grinding into hers while she moaned beneath his hungry mouth.What she thought would be a sweet one-night affair turned into an unexpected pregnancy.Three years later, Caroline has rebuilt her life in a new pack, hiding her past and raising her son.But her new boss, Alpha Draven, is ruthless, controlling, and dangerously attractive...Especially those violet eyes, the same ones she sees in her son every day.Alpha Draven torments her at work, yet she challenges him at every turn.He doesn't know she's the woman he's been searching for since that fated night.While he's still hunting for his true mate,He has no idea she's already in his office... and has been raising his heir. 
My father was a rogue, but by the moon goddess's blessing, he formed a mate bond with the sister of the Alpha of The Blackwood Pack.
They were deeply in love and had eight sons together, yet I, their only daughter, was the most cherished in the entire family.
When I fell ill as a child, my mother prayed for my recovery for three days and nights before the moon goddess's temple.
Once, when my older brothers took me out to play, I accidentally cut my face. My mother was so furious she had them strung up and whipped for three days straight.
My father taught me all his skills, holding nothing back.
Everyone in the family doted on me, treating me like a precious jewel.
Before I even came of age, the Alpha had me betrothed to his most favored adopted son.
I always told myself that one day, I would repay them for everything they had given me.
And so, three days before the wedding—
I personally slaughtered every last one of the several thousand family members.
I severed my father and mother's heads, skinned them, and made a coat from their pelts. 




My childhood sweetheart, who once promised to marry me after graduation, proposes to the fake heiress, May Rivera, at my college graduation ceremony.And just when I think I've lost everything, Randell Gunther—the capital's admired "Mr. Zen"—steps forward and publicly declares his love for me.We get married. For five years, he treats me with unwavering tenderness and spoils me like I'm his world.Then, one day, I overhear him talking to a friend."Randell, May’s famous now. Are you really going to keep pretending with Julia?""I can't have May anyway. It doesn't matter anymore. Besides, as long as I'm with Julia, May can live peacefully and without distractions."Every prayer he makes is for May."I pray that May will be freed from obsessions and find peace in body and soul.""I pray that May receives everything she wishes for and loves without worry.""May, though we are not fated for this lifetime, I yearn that I'll be able to hold your hand all through the next."Five years of love are shattered in an instant.I create a fake identity and plan a staged drowning.From now on, in this life and the next, we never have to meet again. 

I prepare a feast for my boyfriend, David Linton, on Thanksgiving, but he stands me up again.I sit in silence for a moment before pulling up the Instagram account of his first love, Selene Whitmore, like I always do."I'd like to praise someone. He abandoned his girlfriend and came to me just because I told him my light went out. I hope he maintains this valuable principle of putting his friend before his girlfriend," she writes.The photo she posts shows David standing on a stool, changing her lightbulb. She steadies his legs with both hands, her face brushing against his private parts. He doesn't dodge, and there's even a faint smile on his face. The image is an utter eyesore, but I don't have a meltdown or make a scene.I simply press the like button on the post and ask David for a breakup. David doesn't believe me at all."She's just throwing a tantrum. I'll just give her the cold shoulder for a few days. I can cheer her up easily with a beckon of my finger after that," he says.But what he doesn't know is that it's only easy for him to cheer me up because I love him.And from today on, there's no way he'll be able to cheer me up anymore.

Camden Bennett suddenly disappears on the fifth New Year of his marriage to Alice Wilson.Alice, who is blind, goes to the police station to file a report. But the officer's expression turns strange after reading her statement."Ma'am, you said your husband is Camden Bennett? Then what's your name?""My name is Alice Wilson. Has there been any news about my husband?" she asks, her fingers twisting nervously at the hem of her clothes.The officer frowns and knocks sharply on the table. "Ma'am, please cooperate with us and tell us your real name!"Alice freezes. "But Alice is my real name."Behind her, a delinquent sneers with disdain. "Hey, blindy, don't think you can impersonate someone just because you look like her. Everyone in Gearwin knows Mr. Bennett gave Mrs. Bennett a ten-billion-dollar yacht to celebrate her pregnancy."At the same time, the giant LED screen across the room broadcasts an interview."I wish you a smooth delivery, my darling wife.""Thank you, darling."Elena Lovell's sweet and familiar voice rings out, causing Alice's scalp to go numb and her face to drain of all color. 



"Ms. Keane, the test results are not very favorable. You've been diagnosed with late-stage pancreatic cancer. If you refuse treatment, you'll likely only have several weeks left to live—not even a month. Are you sure you wish to proceed without treatment? Does your husband agree to this?"
The doctor asks me over the phone.
"I'm sure… Yes, he agrees to this as well," I reply.
I gaze around the empty room after I end the call, feeling unbearably upset. I used to think the pain was just my recurring gastritis, but it's actually because of a tumor.
Sighing, I turn to gaze at the photo on the desk.
Silas Huntington, who's 18 in the photo, stares right back at me.
Even after all these years, I can still remember the day we took that photo. Snow had dusted our hair white, which made Silas ask whether this counted as us growing old together.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?Wrong.One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.Enter him.Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.And now, he’s not letting me go.
