“Tell me Wifey, has any man ever made you feel the way I do?” Lei Zhao asked.

“Will it hurt if I tell you someone has?” Yan Mei inquired.

A cheeky grin appeared on Lei Zhao's lips.

“It wouldn't because I am sure no one has done it, especially the way you scream with pleasure under me.”

--------

~She became the monster, parents told their kids to run away from, but she was far from a monster. She was just a lonely girl who wanted a friend who would always be there for her, who would check up on her and ask her how she was~

“This isn't a fairytale or a teen fiction where the bad girl falls for the good boy and tries to change for him, and then they live happily ever after. This is real life, and well, life is fucked up.”

Ying Sheng said, and she gulped the beer she was holding, loneliness flickering in her eyes.

“But I-I won't ask you.. to change or want you to change. I just want you to be my bad girl. You --can tie me up in bed- and fu…ck me until I forget my name.” Liam stammered as he turned crimson red.

Ying Sheng heaved a sigh, “Cutie, you're supposed to look for a trophy wife who can cook and do chores. Not a monster like me who will destroy your perfect life. Also, we can't be together.”

Liam's heart nearly stopped in his chest when he heard her. His shoulders hunched, and he took a deep breath.

“Why?” He queried.

“Because I love someone else.”

~At times you have to choose between the one you love and the one who loves you. Ying Sheng learned this in a hard way.~

Two broken-hearted women, each broken in their own way.....with two determined men, ready to fix their broken pieces at all costs.

This is a story of betrayal, love and second chances. Ready to enjoy the journey and learn along?

*No evil mother-in-law, step-sister or cheating bestfriend
