A Summer Affair

My mother sells special éclairs. Each one costs a thousand dollars, but the female customers fight each other to buy them. They look like they can't get enough. My sister wants to take a box to share with her boyfriend when she sees how popular they are. However, my mother firmly rejects her. She says she's the only one who can touch those éclairs. My sister refuses to listen. She secretly sneaks into the freezer in the basement. Then, in the middle of the night, I hear her wanton moans.

I've been with Shawn Turner for a decade. He doesn't give me the wedding he promised me. I'm about to propose to him after preparing for a year when I overhear him talking about me. "Rowena's like an out-of-season garment—there's nothing exciting about her. It'd be a waste to throw her out, but I also feel washed out with her." His friends tease him and warn him to be careful. He merely laughs carelessly and confidently. "Nothing will happen. Rowena can't live without me—she's liked me since we were kids, after all." He smugly pulls the young woman I sponsored close. They act intimately with each other. I look down at the diamond ring I've prepared for my proposal. Then, I go on a blind date and get into a flash marriage with someone else. Shawn's eyes are bloodshot when we next run into each other—he sees my pregnant belly. "Who gave you the nerve to cheat on me, Rowena?"

Everything changed on my twelfth birthday. The brakes failed, the tragic crash, and the death of our parents. My brother blamed it all on me. He ruled as the mafia boss, yet all he showed me was hatred. The only love he had left was for our younger sister. He never believed how sick I became. He accused me of faking my sickness to get attention. He would turn to our sister with a gentleness I never received, he promised to save her, and he promised she would never die on his watch. My heart ended up beating inside her chest even after I died. He finally saw what was left of my damaged body after I was gone. The truth my brother never bothered to face would shatter his world.

From the author of “A Broken Alpha” series comes a new and exciting but complicated world. In this world, things are different. For starters, Omegas’ lives are crueler and harsher. They are able to bear children without a mate, and due to this ability, many are enslaved and used as breeders. Adrian and his pack have undertaken a mission to free the omegas and give them a life of their choosing. To no longer be bound to serve but to live a life as they want. Following the path less taken is not easy and comes with heartache and pain. But joy will come in the end, or will it? Alaric, the future Alpha, is proud and cocky. He hopes to take his father’s place as Alpha when he turns 30. His beliefs mirror those of his father and his father’s father. Why fix what isn’t broken? Omegas are needy, horny little bastards always looking for a good fuck, so use them where they are best suited. Many have benefited from this way of living, and many continue to benefit from it. Alaric and Adrian are light and dark, yin and yang. But where light goes dark follows. And opposites attract eventually. Alaric despises Adrian and his “new” thinking and takes every opportunity to let Adrian know. Adrian can’t stand Alaric’s cocky, know it all attitude and can’t stand his unwillingness to change. With personalities and world views so different, one might wonder why the Moon Goddess would pair these two together. Come on a journey to a new world where love, magic, betrayal, and friendship come from the most unlikely of people and places. Can these two opposites help their packs and heal their people? Or will pride get in the way?

No aniversário da nossa União, minhas pernas envolviam meu Alfa, Adrian, enquanto compartilhávamos um beijo profundo. Meus dedos roçaram o bolso secreto do meu vestido de seda, e minha mão se apertou ao redor do teste de gravidez que eu havia escondido ali. Sentia o leve pulsar de uma nova vida dentro de mim, planejando dar a ele essa surpresa como o final perfeito da nossa noite. Foi então que o Beta de Adrian, Ethan, falou em tom baixo e provocador, usando a Língua Antiga. — Alfa, aquela sua cunhadinha... a loba recém-amadurecida, Zoe. Qual foi o gosto dela? A risada baixa e sugestiva de Adrian chegou aos meus ouvidos, discreta, mas perfeitamente clara. Ele respondeu na mesma língua ancestral. — Sabe aquela pimenta fresquinha? Ardida, com um toque picante de verdade. A palma da mão dele ainda acariciava minha cintura, mas seu olhar já havia se desviado para outro lugar. — Só mantém isso em segredo. Se minha Luna descobrir, acabou tudo. Os outros Betas soltaram risadinhas cúmplices, erguendo seus copos em uma promessa silenciosa de guardar seu segredo. Mas um frio me invadiu, e minha loba interior ficou imóvel, como se tivesse morrido. Ele não sabia que eu havia estudado a Língua Antiga para minha pesquisa sobre trauma em lobisomens. Eu entendia cada palavra. Contive minhas lágrimas, forçando-me a parecer inabalável, mantendo a compostura esperada de uma Luna. Em vez de confrontá-lo, enviei uma mensagem magicamente protegida à Anciã Slone da Associação de Curandeiros Lobisomens, aceitando o convite que ela havia me estendido. Em três dias, eu me juntaria a um programa seguro de reabilitação para lobisomens como sua nova Terapeuta-Chefe e desapareceria do mundo de Adrian para sempre.

But the truth is always bound to be unveiled, and in desperation to find answers and make sense of it all, Ataisha found herself trapped in a deeper hole of secrets waiting to be freed.
