CHAPTER 6

Man Snatcher

"Have you lost your mind Ade? How can you stand there and insinuate that I took James from you? He was mine from the start. You knew he was into me and yet you went after him? How disgusting can you be?" Violet sniggered in contempt. "Like what exactly did you expect would happen? That he would leave me and come to you?"

"So this is James, the small man who cheated on you?" the man beside Ade finally spoke up.

His face was cold, bland and emotionless, his voice a deep timbre.

Sarah, Violet and James could have sworn a dreadful shiver went through them when this man spoke.

If not for how ridiculous he looked in his wrappings, they'd have taken him for a high elite, a global figure because of the raw powerful aura he emanated.

But they knew better so they decided to confront him too.

"You call me a small man?" James was the first to take offense, his face reddening with the insult. He didn't want to accept the fact that indeed he was small, compared to the man who towered over him.

The man indeed made him feel small, including the fact that he was more handsome. But James consoled himself with the fact that he was a bandaged cripple in clutches, so definitely he couldn't come close to him in ratings.

There was no way such a thing could happen. The man was a white-haired circus chimp that had grown excessively in height.

Sarah and Violet on the other hand scratched the surfaces of their fantasies with thoughts of how this man would have been so hot and perfect, if he wasn't crippled, someone any woman would have flung themselves at, but with his appearance he was just a laughing stock.

It'd even be more laughable if him and Ade knew each other. Which clearly seems to be the case.

"Only a small man cheats on his woman," he replied indifferently.

James' face looked like it had just been stoned with fecal matter. He tightened his fists so tightly it hurt.

Now a cripple was talking to him anyhow? All because of Ade!

How much humiliation was this girl going to bring him?

Ade quickly went beside the man and wrapped her arms around his. "Honey don't mind them. We came here to get a pet. Let's just focus on that."

" So we are the ones who didn't come to get a pet ehh?" Sarah sneered. " We came to get a cat for Violet. Something to welcome her into Cleland Family as James' woman.They'll be the talk of town soon enough; and the news about you and James ending things will become obsolete."

" Tell me something , who is this man? Your new boyfriend?" James asked. There was a bad nudging in his chest about this man. He absolutely disliked everything about him, including the way Ade's arms were wrapped around his.

It angered him greatly and he was doing his best to rein his emotions in.

"Yes Ade! Tell us who he is!" Violet huffed. "I guess someone here knows how to jump from man to man."

By the time she was done with Ade, she would never in her next life try to humiliate her in front of other people.

Sarah shook her head, tsking as she added her voice. "Truly I feel for you. It pains me that no matter how we try to help you, and salvage what you have already destroyed, you have proven that you don't want to help yourself. Your miserableness is so laughable, because you can't see it for yourself."

" She lacks self-awareness," Violet added.

" Exactly. If that's not the case then tell me why you'd leave James, a normal looking human, and go for a cripple?" Sarah said and James and Violet laughed.

More people had entered the shop now, making it crowded and the shop owner was happy about this new development.

That was why he hadn't intervened with this never-before-seen drama that was taking place in his shop.

If more people hadn't come in, being drawn to the squabble and trouble, he would have asked the dramatists to leave and not unsettle the peace of his vicinity.

But now he quietly receded to his table and counted the amount of sales he'd be making today, according to the number of heads that were in his shop.

But he quietly ushered the kids out, in case things got messy and a fight broke out.

"Isn't that like going from good to worst?" said Violet.

" I wonder ..."

Ade tightened her hold on him. " Yes we are dating, and at least I am not a man snatcher."

Her words made the smirk on Violet's countenance drop to below zero degrees.

"Ade, you know better than to tell silly lies. You know that is not true." She chuckled nervously, watching the people who were keenly listening.

"If it is not true, then what were you doing with a man who already had another woman? Are you saying James was playing the both of us then? Lying to the both of us and cheating on the both of us with each other? It aches my head to even think it. How can a man do such a thing?"

Violet gritted her teeth, her heart pounding with anger. This woman! She had pushed her into a tight spot now.

And even James who was feeling the heat, removed his hand from hers, and was about to straighten his shirt to talk but the crowd followed up.

"So there are still men who behave like neanderthals?" a woman spoke first.

" The cave men wouldn't even go this far. At least they had honor and dignity. How can such a man be so disloyal and degenerative like this? Playing two women? I feel so sad for them," said another.

" I can't remember the last I saw such a person. He ought to be a societal castaway."

" To even think he had the guts to come here and attack the innocent woman he cheated on."

James wished the ground would open up and swallow him whole.

Two years ago, my fiancé, Connor, tossed the only life jacket to his mistress, Ilene, and watched me drown. I was pregnant with his child. He found me living a quiet life as a fisherman's wife on a remote island, dragged me back to his world, and revealed a shocking truth: our son, the one I thought I'd lost, was alive. He had been raised by them all along. Connor divorced Ilene and tried to force me into marriage, using our son as a pawn. But the boy he'd raised was a stranger, twisted by his father's cruelty, calling me a "bad woman." That's when I knew I had to destroy them. I returned to the island, not as a victim, but as Ayla Garcia, the island chief's long-lost daughter. "Connor Foster," my father roared, his voice echoing through the hall, "you dared to touch my daughter? Get out of my sight, now!" He thought he could ruin my life, but he never realized he was trespassing in my kingdom.

Bound To The Exiled S-Class Monster

9.3

Halie woke up to a sharp pain and a terrifying reality. She was in a new body, her face covered in a hideous web of scars, and her spiritual power reduced to a pathetic D-Class. Before she could even process the memories of being framed, her bedroom doors were violently kicked open. Her sister Seraphina sauntered in with a venomous sneer, followed closely by Halie's S-Class fiancé, Jett. "Look at the disgrace of the Avila family. What a waste," Seraphina mocked, throwing a mirror at her bed. "I can't be tied to a cripple. As an S-Class, I have to break our engagement," Jett added, his gaze full of disgust. The nightmare didn't stop there. Her father called, screaming about how she had shamed the family name. He officially stripped her of her inheritance, froze all her accounts, and exiled her to the decaying Southern District to rot. To make matters worse, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly echoed in her skull, warning her of an impending genetic collapse. Without an immediate energy infusion, she would face total organ failure in thirty days. A ruined face, a treacherous family, a world that wanted her dead, and a literal death clock ticking in her brain. The original owner had died in absolute despair, a tragic victim of sheer cruelty. But if they thought she would just sit there and die, they were severely mistaken. Armed with a mysterious system and her brilliant scientist mind from her past life, Halie packed her bags. She chose the craziest survival quest: head to the slums, find the exiled, sterile S-Class "madman" Coleman, and cure him to harvest his life energy. It was time to start her counterattack.

Burned by Poison, Saved by the Devil

My cousin Hailey paid a dock worker to assault me just to ruin my engagement. To survive the military-grade aphrodisiac she poisoned me with, I stumbled into a walk-in freezer and threw myself onto the only source of cold I could find-a man paralyzed by unnatural hypothermia. It was a desperate, primal exchange of my heat for his ice just to keep my heart from stopping. But when Hailey threw open the heavy iron door, leading my fiancé and the entire Bolton family to witness my "shame," her triumphant grin instantly vanished. She hadn't caught me with a low-life thug. She had caught me straddling Demetrius Maddox, the ruthless Iron King of Chicago. The air in the room dropped to absolute zero. My grandmother screamed in horror, and my father turned the color of ash. Hailey, blinded by jealousy, tried to double down. She pointed a manicured finger at the deadliest man in the city and called him a "nameless muscle" I picked up to defile the family name. She didn't realize she had just signed her own death warrant. I didn't cower. I realized this was the only chance to survive the family that wanted me dead. I walked up to the Devil himself, my body still humming with the poison, and looked him in the eye. "Kill me, and the cold inside you wins," I whispered, knowing he was dying from the inverse of my own poison. "I am the only doctor who knows how to cure you." Demetrius tightened his hand around my throat, his dark eyes assessing my worth. "Prove it," he growled. I turned back to my trembling cousin and signaled the enforcer to hand me the whip.

He Chose Her Over Our Child

My world shattered twice. First, the ocean claimed my son. Then, the mountain road took another, a direct sacrifice to the man I loved and the woman he chose. In the hospital, beeps marked the emptiness where my second son used to be, echoing the first loss, both involving Holden and Giana. During the car crash, I was pinned, bleeding, and trapped. Holden, my partner, looked me in the eyes, then chose to save Giana, abandoning me and our unborn child. Soon, I overheard Holden praising Giana for turning our tragedy into a PR win. His hollow apologies and focus on Giana’s "miracle work" reignited the brutal memory of her push and his past denials. A decade of sacrificing my life and two children for a man who saw me as a liability left a bitter taste. His choice was clear; only profound abandonment remained. But this time, I was choosing me. From my profound loss, a dangerous spark ignited: I would not just survive; I would find freedom and make him pay.
