Paixão Ardente

Vor sechs Jahren gab ich dem Jungen, der meine Welt in Flammen aufgehen ließ, alles: mein Herz, meinen Körper und mein Vertrauen. Am nächsten Tag verschwand er ohne ein Wort. Seitdem meinte das Leben es nicht gut mit mir. Ich begrub meine Eltern in derselben Woche, in der ich meinen neugeborenen Sohn aus dem Krankenhaus nach Hause brachte. Mit gerade einmal achtzehn wurde ich Mutter und Vormund meiner fünfzehnjährigen Schwester. Ich stand unter einer Last, die mich beinahe erdrückte. Als ich endlich glaubte, in einem liebevollen Ehemann Halt gefunden zu haben, fand ich heraus, dass er ein Doppelleben führte – mit einer anderen Frau. Jetzt rebelliert mein Sohn Jaxon. Er ist wütend auf die Welt und trägt Wunden, die ich nicht lindern kann. Nach einem weiteren Anruf aus der Schule, diesmal wegen eines drohenden Schulverweises, wurde mir klar, dass wir nicht länger so tun konnten, als wäre alles in Ordnung. Wir brauchten einen Neuanfang. Ich hätte nie erwartet, dass dieser Neuanfang mich in eine verschlafene Bergstadt führen würde, die ein gefährliches Geheimnis verbirgt... oder zu ihm. Denn diese Stadt grenzt an ein verborgenes Werwolfsrudel. Ihr Alpha ist niemand anderes als der Junge, der vor sechs Jahren verschwand. Derselbe Junge, der nicht ahnt, dass er mir mehr hinterließ als nur ein gebrochenes Herz... Er hinterließ mir seinen Sohn. Warnung!

Eu, Helena Ramos e minha irmã estávamos envolvidas em um acidente de carro. Meu coração estava gravemente ferido e exigia uma cirurgia urgente. Entretanto, minha mãe, a diretora do hospital, acumulou todos os doutores ao redor do leito da minha irmã, realizando um exaustivo exame nela, mesmo que ela só houvesse sofrido alguns arranhões. Implorei à minha mãe que me salvasse, mas ela, com o rosto cheio de impaciência, gritou para mim: — Você não pode escolher um momento melhor para tentar chamar atenção? Você faz ideia de que sua irmã quase machucou o osso? No fim, pereci em um canto esquecido, sem que ninguém notasse.

A nona cerimônia de vínculo entre mim e o Rei Alfa, Thorne Ravencrest, finalmente chegou. Ainda assim, mais uma vez, falhei em me tornar sua Rainha Luna. Não porque ele tivesse quebrado sua promessa… mas porque eu não era qualificada o suficiente. Os anciãos deixaram isso absolutamente claro: toda Rainha Luna reconhecida pela Deusa da Lua ao longo da história deve cultivar 365 Flores do Luar usando sua própria essência de sangue. Mas todos os anos, na véspera da cerimônia, por mais cuidadosa que eu fosse, sempre faltava uma flor. Este ano, quase me esgotei completamente e, por pouco, consegui cultivar a quantidade exata. Eufórica, fui procurar Thorne, querendo fazer uma surpresa. Pela porta entreaberta do salão do trono, ouvi seu Beta dizer: — Rei Alfa, Sera está esperando por você há oito anos. Você realmente nunca vai se vincular a ela? Thorne balançou a cabeça. — Eu prometi à Willow que este ano também não podemos nos vincular. Seu Beta hesitou. — E se Sera realmente conseguir cultivar flores suficientes? Thorne ficou em silêncio por um momento, então bateu palmas. Um lobo das sombras apareceu e se fundiu à escuridão. Pouco depois, o lobo retornou com uma Flor do Luar presa entre os dentes. Thorne a rasgou em pedaços e soltou um suspiro. — Sera tem sangue de sobra. Esqueça um ano. Ela poderia continuar cultivando por mais dez anos e ainda ficaria bem. — Mas Willow foi envenenada com acônito. Eu sou tudo o que resta para ela… e ela quer que eu fique ao seu lado em seus últimos dias. — Eu não consigo recusar Willow. Isso significa que Sera terá que esperar um pouco mais. Mordi o lábio com força, mal conseguindo acreditar no que estava ouvindo. Então… as Flores do Luar que desapareciam misteriosamente todos os anos… eram todas destruídas por ele. Ser uma Rainha Luna sempre foi meu sonho desde criança. Mas, se ele nunca teve a intenção de se vincular a mim… Então era hora de eu deixá-lo.

In the silver Moon Pack, Elara was an Omega who was wolfless. She was a servant who slept in the dirt, and a debt-child used as a footstool by the Alpha’s family. She spent her life waiting for her destined mate to save her. But when Kaelen finally looked her in the eye, he rejected her as his mate publicly. “I, Kaelen of Silver-Moon, reject Elara as my mate. A true Alpha needs a Luna who is strong, not a slave.” Left to die in the freezing rain, Elara thinks her story is over. Out of the darkness come four men who look like gods and move like predators. They are the Vane brothers, the most powerful Alpha bloodline in the world. They have been hunting for their lost sister, Elara, for two decades. Caspian, the Ruthless CEO, Julian, the Brilliant Surgeon. Silas, the Lethal Lawyer. Dante, the Mafia King. They promised to burn the world down for her. They promised she would never be hungry, lonely, or unloved again. But as Elara’s true power awakens–a silver energy that humbles even the strongest Alphas–a dark secret emerges from the Vane family’s past. Her brothers saved her from the Silver Moon Pack, but they might be hiding the truth about her past. And in the shadows, a twin she never knew existed is coming to reclaim the throne.

For eighteen years, Sylvia Velmont survived as the lowest creature in the Crimson Moon Pack, a human slave whose parents were executed for trespassing on wolf territory. When she is dragged to serve wine at the sacred Lunar Conjunction, the last thing she expects is to accidentally spill wine on the one person everyone avoids. Rowan Salvatore, the King’s blade. The cursed Alpha whose mates die before the bond completes. She expects death, but instead, their eyes meet and the impossible happens. The mate bond ignites between a worthless human slave and the most feared warrior in existence. Humans cannot be mated to wolves. Unless… She isn’t human after all. As the bond awakens something ancient in Sylvia’s blood, she discovers the truth. She is the last of the Lunar Blessed, a hybrid bloodline thought extinct. Her parents weren’t just trespassers. They were hunted. And Rowan’s curse isn’t what everyone believes. It is meant to kill him if he ever finds his true mate. Now hunted by the pack that enslaved her, coveted by Alphas who want her power and protected by a warrior whose curse might kill her, Sylvia must navigate her transformation from slave to the most powerful she-wolf in generations, because the King who holds Rowan’s leash knows exactly who she is. The daughter of the wolf emperor he murdered, the rightful heir to all five packs and the only one who can break the soul chain that binds Rowan as his weapon.
