    They never loved her. They never even looked for her.
    
    Peach was the unwanted daughter—born after her twin brother didn't survive. Her family made sure she knew it. Every day. Every choice.
    
    When her sister marries the man Peach loved, no one expects her to show up. But when she doesn't, they're not worried. They're angry. Her mother curses her. Her brother calls her selfish. Her father disowns her.
    
    They don't know that Peach is already dead.
    
    Murdered the night before the wedding. Her body buried where no one would look.
    
    Now, as a ghost bound to the family that never wanted her, Peach watches them eat, argue, and move on. Until grief and guilt begin to tear them apart from the inside.
    
    A haunting, heartbreaking story about the daughter no one loved—and what happens when it's too late to try.

    Amelia had always been known for her compassionate nature. From a young age, she exhibited a deep empathy towards all living beings, whether they were human or animals. Her friends often marvelled at how she could sense the emotions of others and offer comfort in times of need. It was as if her heart had an innate ability to connect with the pain and joy that surrounded her. 
    Living in a small village nestled near the edge of a vast, enchanted forest, Amelia found herself in a world where nature's beauty was both her playground and her solace. The village was known for its close-knit community, where everyone looked out for one another. Amelia's compassion naturally found a home here, as she often volunteered to help the elderly, tended to injured birds, and offered a listening ear to those who sought her out. 
    One cool autumn day, as the leaves began to change their colours and the air carried a hint of impending winter, Amelia decided to take a solitary walk into the heart of the enchanting forest. She had always felt a deep connection to the wild, untouched parts of nature, where she could hear the whispers of the trees and feel the heartbeat of the earth beneath her feet.

    "Get out of my room. I'm your stepsister," I muttered, quickly hiding my naked breasts.
     
    "You only remember it around me?" he hissed, his silver eyes narrowing into my face.
     
    "I saw you with your other stepbrother," he added.
     
    "I didn't do anything with him either," I hissed.
     
    "Really? He didn't paint you naked?" As soon as he said that, I realized he had seen us together.
     
    "If you are going to let him touch you, then I should be allowed too," he stepped closer, "after all, I am not only your stepbrother but your mate too."
     
    I wish I could tell him that I have felt the mate bond with all my stepbrothers, and I was worried about what would be the end of us if anyone found out about this forbidden bond.
     
    ...
     
    Nora had lived a rather dull life until bullying in school escalated, and her stepfather made a decision to take her home and introduce her to her Alpha Stepbrothers. What started as her desire to have a family that loves her turned sinister when, one by one, she felt the mate bond with her stepbrothers. Now it was up to her to decide whether she wants a family or mates. However, she soon realized that her hot, rude stepbrothers had been trying to tame her all this time.
