As she manages this betrayal, she discovers a deep ploy to hinder her from claiming her rightful inheritance. Devastated but determined, Nora takes a daring step to regain control of her life. Enter Demetri 'The Demon' to those who know him, a formidable man barely known to her, who offers her protection and support in return for a contract marriage to satisfy him. In a twist of fate, Nora marries Demetri to claim her inheritance and fight those who plotted against her. But as she battles her own family and Demetri's many rivals, will she be able to keep from falling for the man known to crush people beneath his booted heel.
Excerpt:
She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him.
Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights.
Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife."
She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions."
Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them.
"Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb."
"Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her?
"It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued.
"Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning?
Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality.
But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."

Robert placed a hand on her cheek and said "Rachel you are going to be very powerful so you have to do good and protect the people around you and please find someone who can love you more than me."
She cried out louder and placing her arms around him she buried her head into his chest which was now covered with his blood "No don't say that. I beg you don't say that, please tell me how can I save you."
Robert placed his arm around her and said gently, his heart was clenching with pain not because of the blade in there but because this condition of Rachel was unbearable for him "Be good."
Rachel looked into his eyes "Please don't do this Rob. I can't live without you, I will also die with you because it was me who did this and I can never forgive myself."
He gathered his strength and placed a hand under her chin then kissed her lips for the last time. It was so passionate and painful that it would break anyone's heart.

Rachel who was still crying shouted in pain as if she was being hit instead of him. She struggled out of Robert's grip which was still very strong even though he was loosing his strength. She looked at him and shouted "Let go of me, I will kill them all."
He gave her his most charming smile and he said "Let me protect you for the last time."
His words broke Rachel's heart and she struggled out of his grip even harder, tears flowing uncontrollably from her eyes. It was as if those waterworks were not ready to stop. She gave him a hit on his face and said angrily "Stop saying that, don't you dare leave me or I will kill you."

**Exerpt**
Kimberly opened her eyes and sat bolt upright in bed the moment a phone alarm went off under her pillow.
Kimberly didn’t like alarms. She never set them because they had a way of making her feel anxious when they went off, and she didn’t like it.
So, who could have set an alarm on her phone? She mused with a frown as she raised the pillow to take out the phone.
The moment she saw the phone, the crease between her brows deepened.
This wasn’t her phone. This was the latest iPhone, and she didn’t use iPhones.
Almost as soon as the thought crossed her mind, she noticed that something was different about her. She was feeling sort of funny.
While she was still trying to figure out why she was feeling funny, she looked around the bedroom and frowned even more when she realized that this wasn’t her bedroom.
Where was she? she mused as she quickly took off the duvet and got out of the bed.
As soon as her feet hit the ground, she looked down with a frown. Her feet were different. They were bigger. Her hands, too.
Was she still asleep and dreaming? She wondered and then gasped when she noticed the tent in front of her pajamas as though something was protruding out of it.
What was that? What was in her pajamas? She wondered with wide eyes. Her heart beat fast, and her mouth was dry as she reached out a finger to see what it was.
She poked her forefinger at it, and she felt something hard. It moved but remained erect.
Was that what she thought it was? She wondered as she held the waistband of her pajamas to take a peek.
Just as she was about to look inside, the bedroom door burst open, and she looked up to see who it was.
She was shocked when she looked back at herself dressed in exactly what she had worn to bed.
“Kimberly?” Herself asked, unsure.
Kimberly frowned as she hurried over to the mirror to see what she looked like if she wasn’t in her own body.
“MELVIN?” She screamed in disbelief when she saw that she was now Melvin.
She turned to look at herself and before Melvin could say another word, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Football novels - King of Dribbling (Translation)
==WARNING==READ ME==
Assalamualaikum
Hope this synopsis finds you well.
This is not my work. I just copy the translated novels here without so many changes. I just like these novels so I want to share with everyone.
You are being reminded that the translated chapters are so terrible. Peace
Fiction novels also improve empathy. As readers follow the characters' stories, they get to understand different perspectives, feelings, and motives. For example, when reading about a character going through a tough time, readers can feel what the character feels, which helps them be more empathetic in real life. Moreover, reading fiction can be a great form of relaxation. After a long day, getting lost in a fictional story can help reduce stress and unwind.
One benefit is that it enhances empathy. When we read about fictional characters' experiences, we can put ourselves in their shoes and understand different perspectives better.
One benefit is that it improves vocabulary. Reading novels exposes you to a wide range of words. Another is that it enhances imagination as you picture the settings and characters in your mind. Also, it can be a great stress reliever.
Epigraphs in fiction novels are great for creating context. They can introduce the time period or cultural background of the story. For instance, if the epigraph is from a historical document, it can help the reader understand the setting better. They can also act as a sort of guidepost for the reader. If the epigraph contains a certain philosophy, the reader can look for how that philosophy plays out in the characters' actions and decisions throughout the novel.
One benefit is that it can improve your analytical skills. Crime fiction often has complex plots full of clues and red herrings. As you read, you have to analyze the information to figure out 'whodunit', which sharpens your mind.
One benefit is that it enhances visual literacy. The combination of text and graphics helps readers better understand complex stories or concepts. For example, in a graphic novel about a historical event, the illustrations can bring the setting and characters to life in a more immediate way than just text. Another benefit is that it can be more accessible to reluctant readers. The visual elements break up the text and make the reading experience less intimidating. Also, it encourages creativity as readers can interpret the graphics in different ways and imagine the story beyond what's shown on the page.
One benefit of fiction is that it enhances empathy. By getting into the minds of fictional characters, readers can better understand different perspectives and emotions. Another benefit is its ability to improve creativity. Fiction often presents unique worlds and situations that can spark new ideas in the reader's mind. Also, it offers an escape from reality, allowing people to relax and unwind in different fictional settings.
One of the main benefits is that it enhances our creativity. When we read about different worlds and characters, it sparks our imagination. We can start to think in new and different ways.
Cost - effectiveness is another advantage. Most online library services are either free or cost much less than buying new books. You can sample different novels without the risk of spending a lot of money on a book you might not like. Also, the digital format makes it easy to keep your reading list organized and you can quickly switch between different novels.
Reading crime fiction can also improve your observational skills. Just like the detectives in the novels, you start to notice small details more. When you read these books regularly, you train your brain to pick up on things that might seem insignificant at first but could be important clues later.
