Chapter: Chapter 199: AxelCelia screams as we barrel down the forest. “This is a terrible idea!” Olivia screams after us, pushing branches out of the way as she and the rest of the crew follow me. “I know that.” I yell over my shoulder, because I do. But what other option do we have? “Put me down!” Celia cries, banging my back with her little fists and wailing. I feel bad cause she’s just a kid, but she did call my mate and bitch then try to stab her, so really I’m not completely mad about this. “Nothing is going to happen to you.” I still manage to affirm her. “You’re just insurance that Nester doesn’t attack us.” “Axel, she doesn’t even know what the word insurance means!” Hunter pipes up. I’d been waiting for him to tell me this was a bad idea. I stop running and turn to him. Everyone stops as well. Hunter leans against a tree and looks at me with furrowed brows. “Ax, this is insane.” “I already heard that.” “But do you know it?” My eyes darts through the trees. I can see a small clear

Chapter: Chapter 198: Olivia“Children.” Talon says it with the amount of shock we feel. Because, of all people, children? In a war? There are a dozen of them, maybe more, scattered between the trees and blocking our path forward. Some look barely old enough to attend school. The oldest can’t be more than fourteen. They’re standing in a crooked line across our path with pale faces and gleaming hands. No, not gleaming hands. Weapons cluthed in their tiny palms. The handles are wooden, but there’s no mistaking the sharp blade at the end Silver. “No,” I whisper. One of the girls steps forward. She’s small, with two dark braids and a face that might have been sweet if it weren’t twisted with hatred. “Olivia,” she squeaks. Yes, squeaks, cause she’s that young. Alex steps forward, eyes bulging, “Celia. Nester sent you?” Celia turns toward her, her hatred sharpening. “Alex. Or should I say, traitor?” Alex flinches, and Cecilia takes a step closer. Her blade is the longest of all the childre

Chapter: Chapter 197: OliviaThey’re coming. I try not to throw up as we scatter and pack up what little we can take on the road. The first thing I do is look for my phone. I find it on a table in the living room. The second is try not to have a breakdown. “Water, food, anything that can be useful,” Hunter yells, going from room to room. “We don’t know what we’re walking into, so take it all.” I grab a backpack from one of the Darlington bedrooms and start shoving bottles of water into it. My fingers are shaking so badly that I nearly drop one.Great, I’m about to become the Luna of an entire town, kill someone, or die trying, and I can't even pack a couple of water bottles.This is going to be a goddess-damned disaster. When it's full, I zip the bag shut and sling it over my shoulder. It reminds me of my first day at Lycroft, how Hunter had wanted to take my bag as I walked into the school that would doom me.I was terrified that day, but now I'll do anything to go back, to get my sweet blue-eyed b

Chapter: Chapter 196: TalonThe Luna of everything. The queen of the entire town. I watch as Olivia’s brows tilt up slightly, processing what Alex just told her. Her eyes flash gold. It's crazy. It should be crazy. I should be in shock. But who am I kidding? I'm not. How many times have I looked at her and thought she seemed like a goddess? When she gave me mouth-to-mouth the first time we met, I understood that she was not a normal girl, and she was going to do not-so-normal girl things. She brought me to life, and since that day she has kept bringing me to life, again and again. Why can't she do that for everyone? So, that’s why, instead of gasping like Ryker or mumbling like Axel and Hunter, I pipe up, “I agree.” They all turn to me, and if this were another conversation, I may have kept my mouth shut. But this is Olivia, my mate, and the thought of making her the Luna of everything excites me. “Talon.” she finally says something, small and unsure. “Come on, this is crazy.” “So? We do crazy.

Chapter: Chapter 195: OliviaI should feel bad that I made Alex bleed. Emphasis on "I should," because I don't. Mostly, I feel angry that she gets to stand here while Alpha Rick rots in a hole somewhere, and I’m anxious for what she has to say. And, of course, I feel like being pressed against the counter and having all the stress fucked out of me. But I can’t have that, not right this second at least. So, I settle for crossing my legs and watching Alex put herself together a little. Ryker leans in, his lips brushing my ear, “Is it bad that your little speech and slap only made me want you more?” I shiver. Yes. Absolutely yes. But don't I love him cause he’s kind of fucked in the head? Alex straightens, returning me to reality. “A fight is coming here.” “How big a fight are we talking about?” Hunter hands her a tissue for her nose, then crosses his massive arms across his chest. She tilts her head back and tries to stop the bleeding, and finally, I do feel bad. “A huge fight,” Alex answers Hunter. “Th

She’s real.“Alex?” I gasp.“Alex?!” my mate and pack brothers echo.She swallows, grey eyes so bright it’s like peering into the moon.But not bright with happiness. With fear.Bitterness washes through our bond. Bitterness, I quickly realise, is from Olivia.She hasn’t seen Alex since Ricklan died.Now, she pushes forward, somehow having escaped Ryker’s grasp, and growls, “What the fuck are you doing here?”Alex’s mouth drops open. “Are you… did you shift?”“I’m not your fucking business. Answer my question.”Alex quickly drops her gaze to the floor, as if Olivia slapped her.I want to feel angry too. Hell, I’m always pissed off. But Alex looks so small. Has she eaten?

These Reckless Vows: The Billoniare’s Bride
🔞 Spicy 🔞“You're a long way from safe, Miss Allard,” he whispers, his fingers tracing the strap of my bra until I shiver. "If you want to turn around, I’d suggest you do so now.”
I stare up at him, watching as his dilated grey eyes dip to my cleavage.
“Where will I go, Mr. Sinclair?” I dare to ask, “Where can I go that you won’t find me?”
****
24 year old Ava Jade Allard has a few problems, but like most issues, there’s nothing a little money can't fix. So when Ava attends an art show to sell a few of her paintings to some of the richest, high-society members of New York, she’s sure she can kill two birds with one very rich stone.
In and out, just like she hoped.
But New York seems set on eating Ava whole, and as one mess leads to another, she finds herself in the arms of Billionaire Leonel Sinclair, a ruthless CEO who is still dealing with the consequences of a scandal he was entangled in 4 years ago.
Now more desperate than when she started, Ava reluctantly turns to this stone-cold, terrifying, but somehow insanely hot Billionaire to help her set right what was wronged 4 years ago, while somehow doing the same for him, and with one contract marriage, Ava signs away her single status, anonymity and possibly her soul.
Will this contract fix the manytraumatic wrongs of her past, or will Ava crumble under the weight of her grey-eyed, stoic CEO, whom she seems less and less able to keep her body and heart away from with each passing day?
What happens when Ava agrees to these reckless vows and emerges as the Billionaire’s Bride?

Chapter: BOOK TWO TEASER: These Fighting Desires16 Years Later Valentina Sinclair ~~~~ “I thought my parents loved me.” Willow and I lay shoulder-to-shoulder, simmering in our shared annoyance. “Same.” She responds, tilting her head to stare at me, “Do you think if I beg Aunt Ava enough she’d stop this from happening?” I scrunch my nose, thinking of what mum would say if Willow talked to her. “Willow, angel, this is such an amazing family tradition.” I mock my mum’s enthusiastic voice. Willow giggles, “And then uncle Leonel will join in, cause he’s always on aunt Ava’s side.” I lower my voice to try to get Dad’s deep tone. “Your mother wants the best for you, mi mundo, and so do I.” Willow covers her face with her red-gel fingers, her shoulders shaking from laughter. “Uncle Leonel will murder you if he finds out you were mocking him and your mum.” She breathes between chuckles. “Oh please. My parents would die before they ever punish me. They’re such softies.” It helps that I’m actually good. The straig

Chapter: Epilogue lllAva ~~~ Surprise, surprise, Leonel makes love to me in the car before we head to the office. I’m still coming down from the high of being eaten out when he swerves into the car park, looking at me with creased brows. “Are you okay?” He murmurs, resting one hand on my belly and the other on my cheek. These days, he’s been a little overbearing. But honestly? After Jaxon, I’ll take my overprotective husband any day. “I’m fine.” I assure him. We’re greeted at the door by my favourite receptionist, Fiona, and when she spots my small belly, I can see her mind reeling to ask if I’m pregnant or just overfed. “We’re expecting Fiona. You can ask.” Leonel’s husky voice says low enough to almost make me whimper. Fiona lights up, and I can’t help blushing as she squeals, “Oh, that’s wonderful Sinclairs! No wonder you haven’t been to the office in some time Mrs Sinclair. I’m overjoyed for you!” “Thank you, Fiona,” I say shyly, and Leonel squeezes my hand. Right then, the eleva

Chapter: Epilogue llAva ~~~ Leonel and I manage to pull ourselves out of bed, and after another fuck in the shower leaves my legs jellied, I actually consider hauling my pregnant ass back into bed. Sike. Now, my post-sex glow stares back at me from the mirror. I twist to admire my little belly in my pantsuit, loving the weight of my baby. I'm not the only one. Leonel wraps his big arms around me, soothing my stomach and whispering, “You get more beautiful every time I see you.” I scoff, “You mean I get bigger?” “Ava.” he warns, “don't do that. It's healthy weight, and you look good.” he nips my ear, “delicious even.” I stifle my moan. The last thing I want is for my sexy husband to seduce me into not going to the office. I intertwine our fingers and change the subject, “I have a feeling the baby’s a girl.” Leonel’s eyes glow, “a mini you? I'm so fucked.” I blush all the way to the dining room. Leonel insists on carrying me down the stairs, like he has every day since I showed him my

She moans, and the sound awakens every nerve in my body. “Leonel.” She whispers, still so sleepy. My favorite part of the day these days has been waking her up with my cock. But I’m careful, I have to be. I kiss her, moving my lips as gently as I’m driving into her. She whimpers that sweet noise that always almost makes me cum. “Oh fuck.” She says softly, then whines, “You can go harder.” “I don’t want to hurt you.” I grunt, even as it takes all my energy not to go rough. One bare breast peaks from beneath the covers, and I resist sucking that hardened pink nipple. She isn’t satisfied. I can tell from how she keeps arching up, telling me with her body that she needs more. I trail down her neck, hoping butterfly kisses make up for my softness. “Harder.” She pants. I kiss her nose, “No.” Frowning, she wraps her legs around my thrusti

Like, I got high for the first time good. Every time I glance to Leonel, my insides turn to jelly, and all I can imagine is him railing me again. Or… making love to me, if you feel like being poetic. “Are you okay?” He whispers, “are you… sore?” “Baby, if you ask me that fucking question one more time I might just break up with you.” He laughs, but it’s short and strained, “I just want you to be okay. I’ve never slept with a virgin before and I know the first time can be hard.” “First two times you mean.” I insist, reminding him we did it from the back right before we came here. The tips of his ears actually turn pink, “Ava, I’m serious.” I know, and that’s what’s so infuriating. How can anyone be serious at a time like this? We’re in Paris. All our threats are dead or backed off. Our friend’s are about to get engaged. Most impo

Chapter: Sex, Suites and Proposals (V)Leonel ~~~ God, I love this woman. Ava looks like an angel, curled into my chest as she snores softly. I rub my hand over her cheek, then through her hair. I don’t think I’ve told her how much I love this short look on her. Gently, I fix her bra, remembering how hungry I’d been when I yanked it down, then I peel myself away from her so I can run a shower. “No.” She protests, reaching for me, still half-asleep. I kiss her nose, chuckling, “I want to wash off.” “No,” she says again, then cracks open one beautiful green eye, “stay with me.” Well, there’s no arguing with that. I take my pants and boxers off entirely, throwing them to the ground where my t-shirt is, before snuggling under the covers with her. She sighs happily, wrapping her legs around my waist. She’s so magnificent. Everything about her makes me fall even more in love. It’s no wonder I came so fast. I can still hear her desperate moans, her passionate panting. The way she said my name, and don’t even ge

Désirer Mon Némésis Contractuel: La Fiancée du Milliardaire
« Vous êtes loin d'être en sécurité, Mademoiselle Allard », chuchote-t-il, ses doigts traçant la bretelle de mon soutien-gorge jusqu'à ce que je frissonne. « Si vous voulez faire demi-tour, je vous conseille de le faire dès maintenant. »
Je lève les yeux vers lui, regardant ses yeux gris aux pupilles dilatées plonger vers mon décolleté.
« Et où irais-je, Monsieur Sinclair ? » osé-je demander. « Où puis-je aller sans que vous ne me retrouviez ? »
À 24 ans, Ava Jade Allard accumule les ennuis. Mais comme pour la plupart des problèmes, il n'y a rien qu'un peu d'argent ne puisse régler. Alors, quand Ava se rend à une exposition d'art pour vendre quelques-unes de ses toiles à la haute société new-yorkaise, elle est certaine de pouvoir faire d'une pierre deux coups... et un coup très riche.
Entrer, vendre, et repartir. C'est tout ce qu'elle espérait.
Mais New York semble bien décidée à n'en faire qu'une bouchée. De fil en aiguille, un fiasco en entraînant un autre, elle se retrouve projetée dans les bras du milliardaire Leonel Sinclair, un PDG impitoyable qui panse encore les plaies d'un scandale survenu quatre ans plus tôt.
Plus désespérée que jamais, Ava se résigne à se tourner vers ce milliardaire glacial, terrifiant, mais affreusement sexy, pour l'aider à réparer les injustices du passé. Tout en faisant de même pour lui, elle sacrifie son célibat, son anonymat et peut-être même son âme en signant un contrat de mariage.
Ce contrat effacera-t-il les traumatismes de son passé, ou Ava finira-t-elle par se briser sous le poids de ce PDG stoïque aux yeux gris ? Un homme dont elle semble de moins en moins capable d'éloigner son corps et son cœur, les jours passant.
Que se passera-t-il lorsque Ava prononcera ces vœux imprudents pour devenir l'épouse du milliardaire ?

Et même si je brûle d'envie de parler de mon art, j'aurais tellement aimé le faire avec lui à mes côtés.Pourtant, c'est une opportunité phénoménale.

Je ne l'ai jamais connu très expressif, mais en cet instant, il se livre à moi sans armure, et tout son être me crie qu'il m'aime.J'entrouvre les lèvres pour répliquer, mais chaque mot du dictionnaire semble avoir déserté mon cerveau, et je me demande s'ils y reviendront un jour.Aucun homme, pas même James, ne m'avait jamais dit qu'il m'amait. Et jamais, en un million d'existences, je n'aurais imaginé que le premier serait Leonel Sinclair.

La seconde d'après, je griffe le devant de sa robe.
