Boss-Assistant

I met a special man. People fear him, but I have learned to see his warm, loving heart behind his intimidating appearance. I saw in him not a monster, but a wonderful man. But will I be able to love him as much as he loves me? Will we be able to learn to understand each other? Life with such an unusual man threatens numerous difficulties. Maybe I will regret my choice? The second book in the Beauty and the Beast duology.

— I could’ve forgotten you, — Podolskyi says, his gaze shamelessly locked on mine. — But it seems fate brought you right back to me… so I could settle the score. — Settle the score? — I ask flatly, hiding the fear twisting in my gut. Is he really going to punish me… for that slap? — Why not? — he smirks slowly. — You’re not getting away this time. We’re tied together now, in more ways than one. Sure, you could turn around and walk away… but I doubt your father, Natalia, would be too happy to see a video of his daughter dancing on a bar, showing off her juicy little assets. — Video? — I whisper, stunned. — Where did you get that?

Who, if not me, knows what bad luck really is? Seriously, don’t even worry about getting into trouble when I’m around — I’ll find it and fall headfirst into it before you do. It’s like I was born with a talent for disasters. But hey, I’m not upset. I truly believe that if life keeps messing with me, then love has to be where my luck finally turns. That’s why I lied to my parents, telling them I was moving to the capital to continue my studies… when in fact, I’m here to win the heart of a man I fell for at first sight. Mature, handsome, and way too serious. Problem is… during our first meeting, he didn’t even notice me. But guess what? I’m not giving up. My luck isn’t a total jerk after all. Because now… I’m his intern.

Once, I lived the right way. I never allowed myself too much. I was the girl people were proud of. And then I was broken. So I made a decision — to be wrong. A club. A night with a stranger. A world where everything is for sale — except feelings. I was supposed to survive. Instead, I began to rise. Everyone wanted me. And soon, I started wanting it too. But when people reach for you, there is always someone ready to pull you under. This is not just an erotic story. It is a story about a fall that looks like a rise. And about the question that hurts until the very last page: What if love is just another game?

Two friends start working at a large company. Their boss, one of the most handsome and sought-after men, falls in love at first sight with one of them, but the other also falls for him. Now, she'll do anything—betray her friend, lie to him, even return from the dead—just to have him. But one day, after a terrible accident, they switch bodies, and now one will pay for all the harm the other has done. She'll be accused and sentenced, enduring many hardships in prison, while her best friend gets what she's always wanted.

Malena, a clumsy woman with low self-esteem, lies on her résumé and ends up working as the secretary to the powerful and demanding Jonathan Rowe. Despite her constant blunders, he sees something in her and decides to give her a chance. As she struggles to keep her job, she faces ghosts from her past, the scorn of her successful twin sister, and a growing attraction to her boss. A business trip to Las Vegas will change everything, revealing dark secrets, an unexpected marriage, and a tragic event that will test her strength and her heart.

He is not like everyone else. People fear him. But I decided to get to know him better. To understand and see the person where others see only a monster. Is he really like they say? Is it possible to love someone like that? I invite you to read the fascinating love story of two very different people and find out if they can overcome their fears and doubts and find happiness together.

Here is the translation of the provided text into English: --- “What are we going to do if we’re not having sex?” I sigh, disappointed. “Talk,” he replies dryly, downing his wine in one gulp and placing the empty glass on the table. “I need a beautiful and experienced girl, but not for me—for my brother.” “Why didn’t your brother come himself?” I ask, curious. “Because he doesn’t know about my intentions,” he says with a sly smile. “What other intentions? Want your little brother to have a good time?” “I want you to seduce him,” he says clearly, his eyes fixed on my cleavage. “I can see you know how to handle men. I’m sure he won’t resist you. He’ll fall for it, want to taste your body.”

- I’m pregnant, Sasha. - What did you say? – he asks, lowering his voice. - I’m pregnant, thirteen weeks, – I say louder, and the fear slowly recedes. – We’re going to have a baby. - I’m not leaving Oksana, – his voice is cold, unfriendly. – You knew this, I told you more than once. I can’t. What are you hoping for? That I’ll abandon everything and accept you and the child? It’s not that simple. - If you loved me, you would, – I say in a voice that doesn’t feel like mine. - I do love you, you know that, – he leans in, trying to look into my eyes, but I turn away. – But you’re a smart girl, you should understand. I can’t leave my wife. I’ll give you money, as much as you need. And you’ll do the right thing. - Are you suggesting an abortion?

- What are you doing? – I exclaim in confusion, not expecting such actions from him. - Just wondering if you’re really as sweet as your last name suggests, – he whispers, leaning forward, getting closer to my lips. – And I’m dying to find out. - Better not, – I breathe out faintly. - Why? – he asks, surprised. – Are you afraid of me? He says that. The awkwardness of the situation makes me afraid to move. His closeness is both unsettling and thrilling. - Maybe, – I admit, hoping he’ll let me go.

One night of fun can change everything. The sweet, quiet, and responsible girl everyone knew vanished the moment she had one drink too many. In a single lapse of judgment, she walked away with a "prize" she’ll have to carry for nine months—and more importantly, for the rest of her life. Her main problem isn't just becoming a mother, though. It's the headache of figuring out: Who is the father? Is it her boss, or her boss's best friend? With two potential suspects, she’s about to be swept up in a funny, emotional, and romantic journey. Will she solve this riddle of love? Can she handle such a massive responsibility? That remains to be seen. For now, all she can do is look in the mirror and tell herself: A surprise baby? Never!

My husband cheated on me. He broke my heart, shattered my dignity, and crushed every ounce of confidence I had left. And now… he wants to take everything from me. Even my children. To stop him— I became a plaything for two.

— Inna, calm down! — he grabs my wrists and pins them down. I can’t move. He’s too strong. — Stop it! — Get off me! Let me go! — And where exactly should I let you go? Out on the highway? So someone mistakes you for a hooker? — Why do you care? Isn’t that what I am to you? Just a whore?! — I scream, thrashing. — Let me go! — I won’t! — he growls, tightening his grip around me until it’s hard to breathe.

Mariel Russo is bold, resilient, and unapologetically herself. Despite constant criticism about her weight, she’s learned to stand her ground and embrace her curves. But nothing prepares her for her new boss—Stefano Albrecht. Arrogant, cold, and judgmental, he seems to take pleasure in belittling her at every opportunity. Yet, beneath the hostility, a dangerous and undeniable attraction begins to simmer between them. Forced to work side by side, their tension becomes a battleground of dominance, desire, and suppressed emotions. What happens when a curvy, confident woman meets a man who both detests and desires her? In this fiery office romance, control is an illusion—and attraction might just be the most detestable feeling of all.

I look at Arseniy Viktorovych. My breathing is deep—yet far too quick. This man overwhelms me. Something inside urges me to reach for the sweetness of my boss’s lips again, but his strong, yet surprisingly gentle hands grab me and push me back. A second later, we’re standing still. I tilt my head up to meet his gaze. There’s a storm raging inside me. I want nothing more than to throw my arms around his neck. To kiss him again. — Yanina, — Yarovyi’s voice snaps, firm and cold. — What do you think you’re doing? I hear his question— but I’m in a trance. All I want… is to look at him.

Marta lost the most precious person in her life — and with them all sense of direction. Even her desire for revenge against the one who wronged them had faded… until someone woke it up again. One man could pull her out of her personal hell and into a life of peace and quiet. The other could reignite her thirst for justice — and offer her a path to the top. But… Is it the man she loves or the man who loves her? The one with nothing but strength of spirit, or the one with the power of wealth? The brave, determined man who can do nothing for her — or the coward, the weakling, who would bring her a hundred million stars if only she asked?

Claudia had landed the best job any law student could dream of—working as the domestic assistant to one of the most well-known men in the legal world. And it was even better because that man had been her ultimate crush ever since she understood what it meant to be in love. She thought she’d be fine just admiring him from a distance… until everything spiraled out of control when his wife showed up—and she turned out to be his wife! Yared had made up a fake married life just to keep his mother off his back. It worked perfectly for years—until his mother showed up, eager to meet her daughter-in-law. With no time to explain, he improvised… and the girl who cleaned his house four times a week became his only option. But things are about to get dangerously hot.

Sasha is a modest girl working at a big company. She’s not chasing promotions or power — just wants to live quietly and have fun. But her calm world shatters when she catches the eye of her boss. Zakhar needs a woman just like her — natural beauty, romantic soul, good taste — to take revenge on his ex-wife and win the elite annual contest “Perfect Family 2021.” Sasha must turn his bachelor pad into a cozy home, play the part of a loving wife in front of the cameras, and outshine the competition. Everything goes to plan… until an unexpected twist — caring for a neighbor’s child — turns their fake story into something real.

He ruined her plan, hijacked her dream, and made her break every rule she swore she'd never touch. Forgiveness? Please. Especially not when her pride is still plotting revenge in heels.

Do you think having one boss is bad? No, having two bosses is really bad. And if those two bosses include the man you slept with last week, it makes everything worse. Wait, no. I didn’t sleep with both of my bosses. I slept with one of them—who just happens to look exactly like the other. Yes, they’re twins. And the worst part is, I don’t know which one it was. I don’t know if he remembers me, let alone how I’m supposed to act around them. The tension at the office has become my daily bread. So, do you still think having one boss is bad? Trust me, in my situation, that would be a luxury.
