Isla felt as if she were floating, suspended in a dream as she gazed into Liam Lockwood’s striking blue eyes. They were like deep pools of mystery, drawing her in and making her forget the chaos that had just unfolded. His face was sculpted to perfection, a blend of rugged masculinity and ethereal beauty that made her heart race. She had seen him before—on magazine covers, in articles, and all over the internet. The most handsome and richest man in New York City, heir to the Lockwood Industries fortune, a billion-dollar empire.But only those within the werewolf community knew the truth behind his wealth and beauty: his supernatural powers. The Lockwood pack was the strongest in the city, and with that strength came influence, power, and an undeniable alluring beauty that left everyone else in the dust.“Are you okay?” Liam’s voice broke through her reverie, and she blinked, momentarily lost in the depths of his gaze. She opened her mouth to respond, but no words came out. Instead, sh

For the past few days, she had been rehearsing and training for her first Victoria's Secret runway show, and the excitement was building up inside her. She couldn't believe how different this experience was from her prior modeling job with the mediocre agency. There, she was just another face in the crowd, treated like a mere commodity rather than a person. But here, at Victoria's Secret, she was treated like an angel.As she thought about her former job, a shiver ran down her spine. She remembered the humiliation she had faced at the hands of her toxic boss, Jackie. The way she would belittle her, make her feel like she was nothing, and the way she would take credit for Isla's hard work. But now, as she stood in front of the mirror, surrounded by a team of makeup artists and hairstylists, she felt like a completely different person.The makeup artist, a kind and gentle woman named Sarah, was busy perfecting Isla's look. She applied a light layer of foundation, followed by a glitter d

“So Isla, please don’t tell me that you got scared of Liam Lockwood’s beauty,” Miranda teased, her eyes sparkling with mischief as Isla rejoined the group. The atmosphere was still buzzing with laughter and chatter, but Isla felt a sudden wave of self-consciousness wash over her.“Scared? No way!” Isla replied, trying to sound nonchalant as she tossed her hair over her shoulder. “I just needed a moment to breathe, that’s all.”Taylor, perched on the edge of her seat with her thick arched brows raised, chimed in, “Come on, just accept it. We all have seen girls drooling over him. And this one here,” she pointed at a girl next to her, who was nursing a drink with a look of disappointment etched on her face, “was looking forward to sleeping with him tonight, but he ignored her and went over there.”Isla followed Taylor’s gaze to where Liam was mingling with a few men, his laughter ringing out like music. He looked effortlessly charming, his presence commanding the attention of everyone a

As their lips parted, Isla felt dizzy, her head spinning from the intensity of the kiss. She pressed her forehead against Liam's, the warmth of his skin a comforting balm against her racing thoughts. She was grateful for her tall 6 '0 frame - as it helped her to easily rest her forehead against the 6' 3 feet tall guy like Liam Lockwood, without having to stand on her tiptoes or strain her neck much. "Thank you," she breathed against his lips, her voice barely audible. "Thank you for everything you have done for me, Mr. Lockwood. But please, don't do any other favors for me."Liam's eyes, those striking blue orbs that had captivated her from the start, looked at her with hurt and disbelief. Isla felt a pang of guilt, but she knew she had to set boundaries - before she got in much greater trouble. She swallowed hard, trying to compose herself. "Goodnight," she said, her voice firm but barely above a whisper.With that, she pulled back and turned to her car, leaving Liam standing alone

As the roller coaster crested the top of the hill, Isla let out a whoop of excitement, her laughter mingling with Maria's. The wind whipped through their hair, and the lights of the fair twinkled below them like a thousand tiny stars. For a moment, everything felt carefree and exhilarating.But as they began their descent, Isla's gaze caught on a pair of piercing red eyes watching her from the shadows. Her heart skipped a beat as she felt a shiver run down her spine. The eyes seemed to be fixed intently on her, and for a moment, she felt like she was the only person in the world.As the roller coaster continued its thrilling ride, Isla found herself lost in the exhilaration of the moment. The rush of adrenaline coursed through her veins, and the piercing red eyes she had seen earlier faded from her mind. The coaster took a steep plunge, and she screamed with delight, her laughter echoing in the night air. Just as they reached the bottom, the ride swung upward, and she felt weightless,
