“Haul the net in, luv! We've got church at six sharp!”

“Aye, Captain!”

I shot the grey haired man across the boat a salute, grinning, as he heaved another one of his insufferable sighs.

Matteo Andani was the angel waiting with open arms on a safe side of the world, when I stumbled on a train to a random village in Rome’s countryside, five years ago.

I knew God was on my side because he had sent me these two dashing men to keep me safe. It was a shame I lost one of them, but I still had my

  • My Stepbrother's Fated Nemesis   THE FINAL STRAW

    JADESoren comes home late, sometime around midnight. Only to inform me of a business dinner happening at one of Lupine’s biggest ships tomorrow night. “I don’t think I can make it. I've got work to do.” “You have to be there. I need my wife by my side.” Too bad for him. That last line does not work on me anymore. “It must be really convenient for you to drag me around whenever you wish!” I throw over my shoulder as I march up the stairs. The last thing I want to do is talk to him or have any sort of argument with him. I'd rather reminisce about that almost kiss with Knight that still has my body tingling. As I get up to my room, I slam the door shut and throw myself on the sheets. The soft fabric rubs against my nipples through the silk fabric of my night dress. The movement sends jolts of pleasure through my veins. My pussy throbs with a need for release.For a split second, I'm tempted to spread my legs and chase that release. But that would happen with the image of Knight’s

  • My Stepbrother's Fated Nemesis   AM I THE VILLAIN?

    SORENI sit in my car, watching the blonde woman approach the dark alley. Fuck. This seems to be getting serious…and out of hand. Not at all how I planned for it to go when I went down this path with her. Camille Graves is a gorgeous woman, but that is really not the reason why I seduced her and started having a full-blown affair with her. The main goal is getting intel, and she seemed to be the perfect eyes and ears no one would suspect. All of it is part of a bigger picture I had painted when I first approached Jade. She may be starting to piece some of the clues together, but she would never unearth the bigger picture. Why? Because she does not know the real me, even though we've been married for three years. She does not know what lies beneath this mask I wear…the monster I had to bury with repeated plastic surgery. If she knew…she would never be with me. She would have taken her son and run a long time ago. She’s only able to bear the fact that I'm a werewolf because I've

  • My Stepbrother's Fated Nemesis   IS THIS CHEMISTRY ENOUGH FOR YOU?

    JADE“I crushed that, didn't I?” Knight is behind my heels as soon as the meeting ends. I snort. “Humor yourself all you want.” There’s no way in hell I’m about to admit to him that I actually found how he handled and dominated the situation and scared the wits out of the CFOs, really attractive.No freaking way. “Admit it,” he says as if he can hear my thoughts. “You couldn't even take your eyes off me.” I shoot him a glare. “Did you need something else?” Because I can't understand why he's following me all the way to the elevator. He needs to stay away from me.. especially now I have these naughty ideas flying about and buzzing like drones in my head. “I’m just seeing you out.” A corner of his lips tilts into a mischievous smirk. “I know you like that too.” God, does he ever get less insufferable? “I know my way out, thank you.” “I insist. Besides, I've got some time on my hands. And I want to spend a little more of it in your company. It's going to be my dopamine for the d

Matteo Andani was the angel waiting with open arms on a safe side of the world, when I stumbled on a train to a random village in Rome’s countryside, five years ago.I knew God was on my side because he had sent me these two dashing men to keep me safe. It was a shame I lost one of them, but I still had my dear sweet Matteo.Violet eyes stayed in my mind, with the fragments of hope covered in dust and cobwebs. Matteo had groomed me into a strong woman. I never did know what it was like to lift fucking weights of barley for the sheep. Or haul nets breaking with good catches. Until I met him. He'd taught me what it meant to turn my pain into a weapon so sharp the barest cut brought me satisfaction. He'd taught me that losing certain people from your life was sometimes the best thing that could ha

  • My Stepbrother's Fated Nemesis   THE ONLY COCK I WANT

    JADEIn another thirty minutes, I'm driving out of the house. Freshly showered, in comfy jeans and a cream-colored knitted sweater. Hair free and loose around my shoulders. My heart is aching. I can't tell if it's because I miss Knight so badly tonight, or…because of the state of things between my husband and I. I didn’t care to tell him where I'm headed. He didn't bother to ask. He just locked himself up in his study after our argument. As I drive through the cold night, I think about how to protect my interests and that of my son. The facts are clear. Soren is having an affair. He doesn't care about me. He seems to have planned to steal from me right from the very beginning. He's not who I thought he was. What does all this mean for me? Anything can happen at any moment, and I would be left stranded, maybe my son too. I’m still not sure why Soren made me CEO of Lockwood Holdings, but I vow to make the most of it. I’ll become so successful that he would have to think twice if

  • My Stepbrother's Fated Nemesis   YOUR BETRAYAL NEVER ENDS

    JADEIf I had to pick sides, it would be mine. Anyday, anytime.But I don't tell that to my stepbrother. Instead…I take a few steps forward until there is no distance left between us. “Was there anything else you wanted to add?”A muscle throbs in his jaw, snagging my attention. “I asked you a question.” “And it's my choice to answer or not.” I pause, sliding my gaze to his lips. “Therefore, I choose not to answer such a ridiculous question.” Why would I pick sides with any of them? I don’t like my father. My husband is cheating, and doing a whole other list of strange things. And my stepbrother? I can’t spend more than ten seconds in his presence without thinking of fucking him. “Hmm.” He moves away from my face and begins to circle me like a predator. “You know, there's a reason why Jaxon offered you a seat on the board. You must decide who's side you want to stand on, or be prepared to fight a long battle.” He pauses by my side and leans close to my ear. “Which can get pretty m
