Cuando mis papás me llamaron para decirme que fuéramos a la casa de mi amigo de la infancia para conocer a la chica de su cita arreglada, él todavía seguía durmiendo profundamente a mi lado. Pensé que era una broma y susurré: —Marcelo, dicen que te han arreglado una cita. Soltó un «Ajá...» soñoliento y me atrajo hacia sus brazos: —Mi Luci, échame una mano después a elegir ropa y con el pelo, ¿va? Al notar que me quedaba tiesa, Marcelo abrió los ojos y soltó una risa burlona: —Oye, ¿qué te pasa? No somos nada más que sexo con complicidad, ¿no me digas que creíste que me iba a casar contigo?

Alex Carter has spent his life struggling to make ends meet, haunted by the unsolved murder of his parents. At 23, he finally lands a job as a flight attendant, hoping to leave his painful past behind and build a better future. But everything changes when he meets Captain Damien Russo—the most sought-after pilot in the country. Towering at seven feet tall, dangerously handsome, and impossibly charismatic, Damien is a man of mystery, admired by passengers and feared by those who know his true nature. What starts as stolen glances and secret rendezvous in airport hotels soon turns into a passionate affair. But Damien refuses to come out, keeping their relationship hidden. Alex tries to ignore the red flags—the late-night disappearances, the cryptic phone calls, the way powerful men seem to bow at Damien’s feet. Then the truth crashes down like a storm. Damien Russo isn’t just a pilot; he’s the heir to one of the most powerful drug cartels in the world, using his position to smuggle contraband across borders. And worse—his family may have played a role in the death of Alex’s parents. Torn between love and revenge, Alex is thrust into a world of luxury, deception, and deadly secrets. As rival gangs close in and the FBI tightens its grip, he must make an impossible choice: betray the man who stole his heart or risk everything for a love that was never meant to survive. One thing is certain—no one walks away from the mafia unscathed.

"I want you to pin me down on your desk." I typed it at 2am thinking no one important would ever read it. My boss read every single word. *************************************** Luke followed every instruction. Wore what he was told. Knelt in that hotel room waiting for a stranger who would destroy him beautifully. The stranger was Alexander Voss. His boss. His secret. His slow unraveling. Three months of midnight lies. One night of devastating truth. And a powerful man who had been watching, wanting, and planning far longer than Luke ever knew. His father wants him married. The boardroom wants Luke gone. And Alex wants something nobody in his world will ever allow. Some doors you walk through and never find your way back. Luke walked through his on a Friday night in silk and a broken heart. He's still not sure he wants to leave.

Ethan Cole is nobody special. He warms the bench on the university swim team, eats lunch with the same two friends every day, and goes home to his sister Lina every holiday without a single trophy to show for himself.

Now Karl Voss, the golden campus captain with burning eyes and teeth built for claiming, says Ethan smells like everything he has ever wanted.

Born with a scent so powerful it drives supernatural beings out of control. And something dangerous has been hunting him for years. Two Alphas. One impossible secret. And a bond so deep that both men will burn everything down before they share it. He just wanted his earphones back. Now he is caught between a beast who wants to claim him and a predator who refuses to let anyone else try. The only question is which one will Ethan choose? And whether he will survive long enough to decide.

My partner, Derek Crawford, calls himself a traditional man. On our tenth anniversary, I bought him a pair of his favorite AJ sneakers. Instead, he gifted me a bag of pastries. "Your cake is extremely tiny, and yet it costs you a few dozen dollars! Look at the pastries I got you—not only are they cheap, but they are also huge in quantity! Now this is what I call worth it!" After that, Derek tells me that he'll make it up to me by throwing an engagement party. He has also invited my parents and my relatives to the party. With anticipation brimming in our eyes, we arrive at the restaurant, only to see Derek serving us with store-bought pickles and dinner rolls. "I'm a traditional man, you see. I'm not used to fancy food and foreign cuisines. This, right here, is the basics of a traditional dinner. You don't see patriotic men like me nowadays!" My relatives' expressions change drastically on the spot. Meanwhile, my parents look very mortified. I can only smile awkwardly at them while doing everything I can to stop them from leaving. But as soon as I leave the hotel, I receive a notification from the bank that 200 thousand dollars have been deducted from my account via a supplementary card linked to it. At the same time, Derek's childhood sweetheart, Renee Young, posts a photo of her 12-layered luxurious cake on her social media account. "When I told Derek that I wanted to celebrate my birthday, not only did he buy me the most expensive strawberry cake, but he also reserved a dozen or so tables that are served with the grandest feast! "If your man loves you that much, he won't need any lessons in pampering you! Traditional men definitely know how to love and pamper their queens!" I tighten my grip on my phone. As I look back at Derek, who keeps claiming that he's a traditional man stuck to his traditional ways, I suddenly find it exhausting to continue being in a relationship with him.

El día que Olivia Muñoz y Adrián Vargas cumplían cinco años de casados, Paulina Castillo regresó al país. Esa misma noche,Olivia descubrió a su esposo en el baño, entregado a sí mismo mientras gemía el nombre de su exnovia. Así que esa era la razón por la que Adrián no la había tocado en cinco años de matrimonio. —Pobre Pau, regresó sola y la está pasando mal —se justificó él—, solo la estoy ayudando como amigo. —Entiendo. —Le prometí a Pau que la acompañaría a la playa por su cumpleaños —insistió en otra ocasión—, solo estoy cumpliendo una vieja promesa. —Está bien. —Para esta cena necesito una acompañante que esté a la altura, y Pau es más adecuada que tú. —Ajá, ve. Cuando ella dejó de enojarse, de llorar y de hacer dramas, a él le pareció extraño y le preguntó: —¿Por qué no te enojas? Por supuesto que ya no se enojaba, porque ella también estaba a punto de irse. Harta de un matrimonio estancado y sin vida, había mejorado su idioma en secreto, aprobado sus exámenes y enviado solicitudes para estudiar en el extranjero. El día que le aprobaron la visa, le aventó los papeles del divorcio. —No seas ridícula —se burló Adrián—, si me dejas, ¿cómo vas a sobrevivir? Dio media vuelta, se compró un boleto de avión y se fue, cortando toda comunicación. La siguiente vez que él supo de ella fue por un video que se hizo viral en redes: llevaba un vestido rojo espectacular y bailaba apasionadamente en el extranjero... Adrián se puso furioso. —Aunque te vayas al fin del mundo, ¡te voy a traer de vuelta!
