What Year Does 'A Man On The Moon' Take Place?

夫の柊南斗はボディーガード協会の総隊長だが、私が犯人に殺されそうになっているその時、彼は腕の中でしくしく泣く幼馴染を慰めていた。 犯人たちがサービスエリアで食事をしている隙に、私は冷静に五回、彼の仕事用の電話にかけた。 やっと繋がったと思ったら、電話口から彼の激しい叱責が飛んできた。 「媛は今、犯人から助け出されたばかりで、俺が必要なんだ。もし俺に家に帰ってきてほしいなら、嫉妬で誘拐されたふりをしたり、猿真似みたいなことはするな！」 傍らで佐藤媛が可愛らしい声を上げているのが聞こえた。彼と口論している時間はない。私は協会のホットラインに電話をかけた。 しかし、オペレーターから、三十分前に柊南斗が佐藤媛を救うため、市内のボディーガードを総動員したと告げられた。 犯人たちが戻ってきて、柊南斗がボディーガードを総動員し、誘拐された少女を救出した武勇伝を嘲笑っていた。 私の記憶が正しければ、佐藤媛が誘拐されたのは、今月で二十八回目だ。 犯人がライフルとスタンガンを持ってこちらに歩いてくるのを見て、私は絶望のあまり目を閉じた。 死ぬ前に、私は最後の力を振り絞って、彼にメッセージを送った。 「どんなことがあっても、私はあなたを愛していた。さようなら」

結婚して七年間、夜を共にするたびに、私は仏壇の前で朝までひざまずいていなきゃいけなかった。 「これは真夏への償いのためだ」そう言ったのは、夫の相澤嘉山（あいざわ かやま）だ。 また義母の相澤夫人に命じられ、夫のもとへと向かったある夜のこと。ふと、廊下で彼の兄弟たちの話し声が耳に入った。 「さて、今年で時雨（しぐれ）は何度目の体外受精だ？あいつマジで必死だな」 「まあ……本人は知らないんだろ？嘉山の子どもなんか、一生できるわけないのにな」 嘉山が冷たく鼻で笑った。「バカだよな。毎回終わったあと、俺がわざわざ牛乳飲ませてんのに。何年もずっとピル飲まされてて妊娠できるわけないだろ？」 「あいつが体外受精で苦しんでんのも、全部真夏のためにやってんだよ。あれは、罰だ」 私は虚しく笑い、その会話を録音してそのまま嘉山のお爺さん――相澤当主に送った。 「私はもう、相澤家に跡継ぎを残す運命にはない。だから、もう、私を自由にしてくれないか？」

She poured her heart out, yet he did not do the same. As infidelity befell her marriage, she was forced to divorce her husband with nothing left in her name. Overnight, she changed from the enviable position of Madam Larson to a pitiful, penniless wretch. She thought that she would not meet him again, yet fate played with her and they crossed paths once more. “Let me go, I beg you.”“Do you think I’ll do that again?”

Wielding the Guardian’s Divine Sword, there is no one on this world that he dares not kill. With a needle, there is no sickness on this world that he cannot cure. By holding her hand, there is no one that dares to bully her again, not even one bit.

Part 1 - A GAMMA'S KISS Once a shifter turned 18 they would be able to scent their mates. It felt like this was the moment everyone was waiting for. But not for me. I was happy just to be playing around, one female after another. Why settle for one when you could have a taste of many? But then I tasted her lips. And that one kiss completely changed me. For once, I was ready to give up my old ways just to have a taste of her every day of my life. Part 2 - A BETA'S FATE, AN ALPHA'S DESTINY DOMINIC'S STORY: I kept waiting for my fate to interfere, but at this point, I was already losing hope that I would ever find my mate. Maybe life would be much better with Sofia. I couldn't deny now that I was attracted to her, and maybe that attraction was enough to make me forget Janna. Maybe we could benefit from claiming each other — so she could avoid being claimed by someone she didn't like and me, to not be alone anymore. Because even if I didn't want to admit it, she was slowly creeping her way into my heart. DARVIN'S STORY: My wolf is dying. Soon, I had no choice but to step down as the Alpha of my pack. With the quest to find the perfect Alphas for my sisters, I was already losing time in finding my own mate. But then she appeared out of nowhere, pulling me back into a destiny I was already ready to turn back from.

WARNING— 18+ READ WITH CAUTION Slowly stroking her again he leaned down placing a kiss on her forehead. "Just calm down Kitten. No more crying." He extended a hand using it to wipe the tears that laid on her cheeks. Seeing them there didn't set right with him, she was suppose to be writhing in pleasure not crying in pain. "Do you not trust me?" Celeste nodded holding onto him for dear life. "I do." "Then spread your legs wider Kitten." **** Celeste always thought her life would change for the better, the future she had foreseen was one like no other; a mate that would love away her pain, a mate that would see only her, breathe only her. However, when she found herself mated to Zillon Macre; her life long crush as well as the future alpha of her pack, her dream remained just that, a dream. Her life did not change in the way she wanted it to, instead of better, it changed for the worst. Her insignificance didn't dissipate, it augmented, and somehow it left her being unwanted... By her pack members... Her family... And lastly by her mate who only craved for her twin sister.
