Adoptive Synonym

My name is Isabella Wright. In my fifth year of marriage to the Don of a powerful mafia family, I find out that the protection charm he gave me causes me headaches whenever I bring it with me. I take out the sachet I find in the charm and bring it to Cursley Hospital. The doctor inspects the sachet and tells me that it contains a type of slow-acting poison that doesn't just cause harm to the victim's body but also renders them infertile after a while. I cry and exclaim, "But that's impossible! My husband gave this to me! His name is Vincenzo Cursley. He's also the person who owns this hospital!" The doctor looks at me in confusion. "Miss, I think you need to visit the psychiatrist. I know Mr. Cursley and his wife. They're very close and intimate with each other. Also, Mrs. Cursley just gave birth to a baby boy not too long ago. They're both now in the VIP ward, looking at their baby." Then, the doctor shows me a photo on his phone. Vincenzo was wearing his usual black suit with the Cursley family emblem embroidered on it. He was holding a baby in his arms, and as for the woman standing next to him… I know her. Her name is Claudia Henderson. And Vincenzo has always referred to her as his adoptive sister.

Lors d'un affrontement entre meutes, ma sœur adoptive Chloé et moi avons été blessées. Un Rogue m'avait mise en pièces, ne laissant qu'un amas de chair et de sang. Ma louve s'éteignait déjà dans mon esprit. Mais mon compagnon Alpha, Damon, a couru droit vers Chloé. Elle n'avait qu'une simple éraflure au visage. Il a refusé d'utiliser son pouvoir d'Alpha pour me sauver, m'accusant d'être la cause du désastre. « Hélène, si tu ne nous avais pas ralentis, rien de tout ça ne serait arrivé !

Et quand la vérité a éclaté — que j'étais morte pour le sauver — cet Alpha au cœur de pierre, celui qui m'avait rejetée si cruellement, est devenu fou.
