Ad Misericordiam Fallacy

Following the harsh rejection by her fated on her wedding day, Winter grapples with finding a way to endure the pain inflicted by Alpha Brandon of Hayland. She's not navigating this ordeal alone—her steadfast best friend Summer is by her side, and together they strive to weather the storm of anguish. However, the challenges are abundant, exacerbated by the obstacles posed by Brandon's Luna, Lesley. As Brandon withdraws his support, they must secure a new home for their orphanage. Undeterred by the adversities, Winter and Summer decide to confront their troubles head-on and salvage what remains. The quest for a new home becomes paramount, yet the financial means to relocate from Hayland are lacking. Fortunately, these two resilient women refuse to back down from a challenge. Taking charge, they embark on a journey to address their problems. Little do they know, fate intercedes in the form of the Albert Alpha twins, Noah and Sebastien. Unprepared for love and driven by ambition, the twins may overlook the precious connection they have stumbled upon. Will Noah and Sebastien recognise and cherish what they have before it's too late? Will Winter be willing to grant fate and love a second chance, and will Summer summon the courage to embrace the gift bestowed by the goddess?

"If I touched you, you’d never go back to him." Arden's words rang in my head. My breath caught. Now that I was out of the palace, nothing stood between us. No gilded cages. No cameras in every corner. No Ivana breathing down my neck. Nothing to stop him from making good on those words. And the worst part? A traitorous part of me was curious. What if he was right? Arden was Richard’s brother. The wrong man. The forbidden man. And yet my body betrayed me. My heart beat harder just thinking about him. My lips tingled at the memory of his voice, his smirk, the way his eyes had lingered on me like he saw everything I tried to hide.

“Hands on the wall, and stick your perfect ass out for me,” Cole demands. I lean my sweaty palms against the concrete slab and step my feet apart, bracing myself, as I bend my torso until I’m at a ninety-degree angle with my ass and torso parallel to the floor. Cole lightly slaps one of my redden ass cheeks, and a flame of desire mixed with pain bursts through my body. Everyone is gathered around now, watching. “Fuck her hard, Cole!” Someone yells. “Wreck her little pussy!” “Fill the little slut up!” All the taunts and comments are making me blush with embarrassment while my pussy gets wetter. •°• What begins as a sugar baby deal soon becomes a whirlwind of rough spankings, wicked bondage, and pulse-pounding group encounters, threesomes, foursomes, even gangbangs that leave Jacqueline trembling, breathless, and begging for more. As a top physics student, Jacqueline never expected her reply to a sultry ad would drag her into Cole’s orbit, a cocky financier whose magnetic charm was a trap and whose control was absolute. Every lash of his whip, every ruthless thrust, and every scorching gaze pulls her deeper into his dark world—a world where secrets simmer and desire burns hotter than she ever imagined. Now Jacqueline is caught between the thrill of surrender and the fight for her soul. Will she rise from the ashes of her corruption, or will she give in completely to his iron grip? Content Warning: Packed with BDSM, free-use fantasies, edging, humiliation, tantalizing toys, double/triple penetration, and flashes of F/f heat woven into blazing M/f seduction, Punished by Passion is not for the faint of heart. This is danger, desire, and dark romance at its most addictive, enter only if you dare.

"Mau sampai kapan seperti ini, Ad? Papa tidak menuntut banyak kok. Jadilah anak yang BERGUNAAA! Kamu seharusnya malu sudah 25 tahun, hidup masih menjadi benalu di keluarga!" Kilasan ucapan itu terus muncul dibenak pria berusia 25 tahun bernama Adrian. Kehidupan penuh kegagalan harus ia lewati dengan berbagai tekanan. Hidupnya bagai bertopang pada ranting rapuh yang kapanpun siap terjatuh. “Ya Tuhan, pintaku hanya satu, hidupkan aku saat kehidupanku memiliki takdir yang bahagia.” Ucapan konyol yang Adrian katakan nyatanya bukan bualan semata. Akibat kecelakaan yang hampir merenggut nyawanya, jiwanya tiba-tiba terbangun di kehidupan yang jauh dari apa yang ia bayangkan. “Hahaha.. ini GILA!!! Bagaimana bisa aku terjebak di sini?!” Transmigrasi jiwa? ini memang gila, tapi itulah kenyataannya. Lebih parahnya lagi, Adrian bertransmigrasi ke tubuh seorang anak berusia 18 tahun. Tak jauh berbeda dengan takdirnya dahulu, sosok ini juga memiliki takdir buruk bahkan terancam berakhir dengan kematian tragis. "Jangan bermimpi untuk mendapat penghormatan, Ad. Harusnya kamu sadar mengapa orang diistana membencimu. Seorang pangeran tak seharusnya terlahir dari rahim seorang selir. Kedudukanmu dimata mereka tak lebih seperti rakyat jelata. Kau harus ingat ini, kau hanyalah aib istana!!" Dengan segala ketidakadilan dan bayang-bayang kematian, mampukah Adrian merebut tahta dan membawa akhir bahagia untuk sang protagonis sengsara? “Tak kusangka menjadi Adrian si pangeran terbuang lebih melelahkan dibanding Adrian si pengangguran. Sial! Kalau aku sudah kembali nanti, akan kupatahkan jari-jari laknat milik Kimberly itu. Teganya ia menggunakan namaku untuk novel setragis ini.”

"What am I to you? A trash picker?" I asked him sarcastically, looking at him from head to toe in disdain. "Lauren." he growled, clenching his fists tightly, glaring at me in disbelief. "Yeah, I know this is my name. You don't need to remind me, and please don't pop up in front of me like an unwanted ad in the middle of an interesting scene. You irritate me the most in this way." I scolded him, still with an ugly expression in disgust on my face. "So, now I disgust you, huh? Why didn't you disgust before when I." "Because I was a fool back then. I assumed a filthy rock as a gem and paid a heavy price for that." Before he could complete his sentence, I interrupted him, scolding him in a loud voice. His already widened angry eyes widened more in shock this time. I took a step forward while locking my gaze with him. "A scum like you who used me when he needed me and then slapped the divorce paper doesn't deserve even a glance from me, Gabriel. Never bother me again, or else what I will do to you, you can't even think about that." "Hey, babe. Why are you here?" I beamed when I heard his magnetic voice calling me from behind. I immediately moved towards him when Gabriel held my wrist. "You are making a mistake, Lauren," he warned me in a stiff voice. I yanked my hand from his grip and threw a disgusting gaze on him before walking towards the boy who treated me like a treasure. Gabriel’s devotion to his first love made me realize that loving myself is the only thing that can make me happy forever. I grabbed Vincent's arm with a beaming smile.

En el quinto año de mi amor por Gabriel, él heredó el título de Lord Vampiro de su difunto hermano, así como a su viuda, Chloe, la antigua Reina de Sangre y, por sangre y ley, mi pariente por pacto. Cada vez que regresaba de los aposentos de ella, Gabriel me abrazaba con dulzura y me susurraba: —Isabella, Chloe es solo mi Consorte Elegida. Una vez que conciba y dé a luz al heredero del Aquelarre Blazetooth, me uniré a ti mediante un vínculo de sangre. Decía que era la única condición que su familia le exigía para ascender como Lord. Durante los seis meses posteriores a nuestro regreso al Aquelarre Blazetooth, él acudió a su llamado cien veces. Al principio, una vez al mes. Luego, una vez por semana. Y todas las noches. En la centésima noche que pasé despierta esperándolo, Chloe concibió. La noticia llegó junto con otro anuncio: Gabriel y Chloe pronto quedarían unidos por un vínculo de sangre. Mi hijo me miró, confundido e inocente. —Mamá... ¿no decían que papá formaría un vínculo de sangre con la Reina de Sangre a la que ama? ¿Por qué no ha venido a llevarnos a casa todavía? —Porque —dije con suavidad mientras le acariciaba el cabello—, la Reina de Sangre a la que ama nunca fue tu madre. No importa —añadí—. Yo te llevaré a casa. A nuestro propio hogar. Lo que Gabriel nunca notó fue que como la única hija de un Rey Vampiro en funciones, nunca me había interesado en lo más mínimo el título de Reina de Sangre del Aquelarre Blazetooth.

Résumé Brigitte, une jeune femme douce et dévouée, vit depuis trois ans un mariage où elle porte seule tout l’amour.
