Almost his

EKANS_EVANS
Almost His Max never asked for a miracle, but when she woke up one day as a boy, her life took an unexpected turn. With a troubled past and a fierce temper, Max had always fought for what he wanted—including Lucas, the boy he had loved for years. But Lucas never knew Max as a girl. To him, Max was just a stranger introduced by his cousin, Amigas. Fate brought them together in Thailand, where they shared a home, built a connection, and slowly fell for each other. But while Max was ready to embrace their love, Lucas feared the weight of his family's expectations. Their relationship remained a secret—until Lucas’s father found out. Disgraced and furious, Lucas’s father forced him into an arranged marriage, locking him away and sending a wedding invitation to Max as a final message. Heartbroken and betrayed, Max watched as the boy he fought for became someone else’s groom. Because in the end, he was almost his.

The Duke’s Bargain

“What did you say?” Félix asked. She repeated, “Name your price.” “What is that supposed to mean?” His voice had tapered off with an unreadable emotion that got her weak in her knees, but she held out her chin. “Didn't you once offer to pay me off? Now, make me an offer I cannot refuse. Otherwise, I will go in there"—she gestured toward the Ball—"and make everyone think you dragged me out here to take advantage of me. I know exactly what that would do to your reputation.” “Say. That. Again,” Félix said through gritted teeth as he inched closer to her. ====================== She hadn’t meant to upset him or, worse, blackmail him. She didn’t even know who he was; she only knew he looked important because of how regally he stood in the moonlit dark. Estella was the baron of Cleverdale’s youngest, born into a hard life and always kept on her toes. Her stepsisters hated her. The baroness loathed her. And her father, the only one she called family, shattered her heart when he sold her to Viscount Alistair Ravensdale to cover up his misdeeds. The night of Lady Agatha’s ball, she seized her chance and ran straight into … Duke Félix of Chateaûbriant. In the dark, he mistook her for Princess Coralie, his fiancée, and kissed her. When the moon revealed her face, something about her stuck with him. He couldn’t shake the image of her running wildly or how she smelled like white lotus with hardcore roots. But when she threatened his reputation, he refused to play along. She returned to her world of cruel sisters and an unwanted engagement. What she hadn’t prepared for was the Duke arriving at her doorstep, making two outrageous claims. One. He was the Duke of Chateaûbriant. And two. She had stolen something valuable from him that night. What had she stolen without knowing it? Or worse, what could he possibly demand as repayment? ✯Like it? Add to Library!
