A Z Reads

Just when things have been doing good for Hailey, her life is changed by single gunfire. It was the night after the top of the criminal organization jumped from a building, and because of this, the top brass of the criminal organization have been scattered in different parts of Manila. Hailey just happened to walk past by a convenience store when she saw a short-haired man in a three-way suit killed someone by simply being on their way. Since Hailey is a witness, the man whom she saw murdered someone cannot just let her go, and the next thing she knew, she was lying down in a king-size bed and as she looks around the room, a long-haired man is sitting right across her direction while siping at the glass of bourbon he was holding as he reads the newspaper with a gun as his reading pointer.

re·pent /rəˈpent/ verb feel or express sincere regret or remorse about one's wrongdoing or sin. Haven is your average Christian young woman. She attends church, always reads her bible, and is the leader of her church's Youth Group. She even has the perfect Christian boyfriend, who she's sure she'll marry. Tristian is your average trouble maker. He drinks, smokes, and has no interest in religion. He's been sent to live with his religious grandmother harboring a lot of guilt and a horrible secret. When Haven meets Tristian, he turns her Christian world upside down and offers to show her a life outside of God. Her faith wavers as she falls in love with him and sets down a passionate, sinful path. She tells herself God will forgive her if she repents. But repentance means nothing when you're not sorry for what you've done.

„Du bist keine Tochter dieses Rudels“, zischte meine Mutter, ihre goldenen Augen funkelten im Feuerschein. „Wenn du deine Alpha-Schwester nicht unterstützen kannst, dann geh.“ Ich hätte es kommen sehen müssen. Beim Ashveil-Rudel bedeutet Familie alles – außer für mich. Vera Darkthorne, die Enttäuschung. Während meine perfekte Schwester Eris Liebe, Titel und sogar meinen Gefährten Cain erhielt, fand meine Paarungszeremonie ohne einen einzigen Gast statt. Nicht einmal der Mann, der mir ewige Treue geschworen hatte. In jener Nacht floh ich. Inzwischen habe ich mir im Berliner Untergrund-Syndikat der Werwölfe ein neues Leben aufgebaut. Dort zählt nur Stärke. Ich lernte zu kämpfen, zu führen und Wölfe von doppelter Größe mit einem einzigen Blick in die Schranken zu weisen. Doch als die Nachricht eintraf, dass Eris im Sterben lag, forderte das Rudel meine Rückkehr. „Komm nach Hause, Vera“, dröhnte die Stimme meines Vaters aus dem Telefon. „Deine Schwester braucht dich.“ Ich muss fast lachen. Nach allem, was passiert ist? Aber dieses Mal bin ich nicht die schwache Wölfin, die sie damals zurückließen. Dieses Mal habe ich eigene Reißzähne. Und wenn Wölfe dich zur Jagd freigeben, fliehst du nicht – du beißt ihnen zuerst in die Kehle.

Just a few days before my wedding, I accidentally come across a post while scrolling online. The title reads, "To the guy getting married in this city, your fiancée's already cheated on you." Curious, I click in to see the gossip, only to realize I'm the one being talked about. A deep male voice plays in the video. "I heard you're getting married?" The woman in the frame, bare-backed and trembling, chokes back a sob. "After you left, I realized you're still the one I love most. I'm done with him. Take me away, please!" The moment I hear her voice, it feels like someone punches me straight in the chest. Then I notice something on her wrist—the luxury couple's bracelet I gave her just yesterday. And in that instant, I feel like the biggest joke of all. Turns out the fool was me.

This Thanksgiving, Elmer Fuller finally agrees to go on a trip with me. But when I wake up in the hotel, I don't see him anywhere. I spend the entire day desperately searching for him, only to stumble across a social media post from his first love. It's a selfie of her and Elmer having a cozy family dinner with her parents. The caption reads, "Someone's finally meeting the parents on Thanksgiving night. Mom and Dad can stop pressuring me to get married now!" Around her neck is the scarf my mother knitted for me before she passed. I left a comment. "Stop using my things to flirt with my husband. Take the scarf off—you can have him." Not long after, she posts an update. The scarf is shredded into pieces and tossed into a dog bed, with the caption, "What trash—too filthy even for a dog!" Elmer likes the post.

Mein Bruder feiert draußen, ich gehe ihn abholen. Während ich wartete, hörte ich meinen Bruder Markus Richter fragen: „Hast du nicht eine Freundin? In all der Zeit habe ich sie noch nicht kennengelernt.“ Plötzlich stockte mir der Atem. Markus und ich waren seit drei Jahre in einer geheimen Beziehung – niemand wusste davon. Seine Stimme klang gelangweilt, als er antwortete: „Das ist keine Freundin, nur ein Zeitvertreib. Heiraten will ich sowieso nicht.“ Meine Finger krümmten sich zu Fäusten. Ohne zu zögern stieß ich die Tür auf.

Zu Weihnachten wollte mein Schwager unbedingt nach Hawaii in den Urlaub – also beschloss ich, dass die ganze Familie gemeinsam dorthin reist. Kaum hatte die beste Freundin meines Mannes davon erfahren, bestand sie darauf, mit ihrem Kind mitzukommen. Mein Mann zögerte keine Sekunde, kaufte sofort Flugtickets für sie – aber erklärte mir, ich solle das ganze Gepäck mit dem Auto nachfahren. Ich hatte gehofft, der Rest der Familie würde zu mir halten. Aber nein – alle anderen unterstützten seine Entscheidung. Na gut. Wenn das so ist, dann gehen wir eben getrennte Wege. Doch auf einmal bekam seine ganze Familie Angst…
