Akuma No Mi Devil Fruit

Cuando mi novio piloto canceló por decimoctava vez nuestra boda, me cansé. La primera vez, dejó todo porque su alumna tuvo la regla y corrió a comprarle té de jengibre con azúcar moreno. La segunda, su alumna falló en una misión; él solo dijo que estaba de mal humor y me convirtió en el hazmerreír de todos en el banquete. En tres años de relación, siempre que ella tenía un problema, él me dejaba plantada sin pensarlo dos veces. Al fin, comprendí: quizá en su corazón yo nunca importé. Así que compré un billete a París y decidí viajar sola por el mundo. De esta forma, ya nadie volvería a abandonarme.

After I married Riccardo, the Don of the Moretti family, he paraded a string of mistresses in front of me. He never gave me a second glance. But on our tenth anniversary—right after my father’s death—he suddenly promised me half of his empire. The catch? In return, he planned to seize control of all my family’s arms-dealing routes. That pissed off his favorite mistress. She cornered him on his yacht, demanding he take his words back. Then she fell overboard and died. An “accident.” After she died, Riccardo went insane. He took it all out on me. He tied me to the back of his yacht. He dragged me through the sea, a human anchor, until the rocks shattered my legs, crippling me for life. I became the family’s shame. Then, as I lay helpless, he finished the job with poison. Then I opened my eyes. I was back on the day Angelo Marino—the head of our rival family—proposed to me. In my last life, my family forced me to say no. He came for me, a one-man army. He killed Riccardo, but died in the process. This time, I looked at his kind face and nodded. Yes. But as we embraced, Riccardo appeared. He ripped me from Angelo's arms and claimed me as his own. That’s when I realized the cruelest joke of all. My monster was back, too.

Después de que su alma gemela muriera, el Alfa Killian Thorne pasó diez años guardándome rencor. Yo era la sanadora Omega que él nunca quiso, unida a él por deber, no por amor. Para él, yo era un remplazo. Una cicatriz en una unión que ninguno de los dos pidió. No importaba con cuánto esmero sanara sus heridas, ni con cuánta devoción permaneciera a su lado, lo único que me decía era: —Si en serio quieres complacerme, entonces vete. Pero cuando la muerte vino por nosotros, no fui yo quien cayó. Fue él. Mientras se desangraba en mis brazos, Killian me miró por última vez y susurró: —Ojalá nunca te hubiera conocido… En el funeral, su madre lloraba. —Debió quedarse con Selena. Nunca debí permitir que se fuera contigo. Su padre me quería matar con la mirada. —Te salvó la vida tres veces. ¿Por qué se tuvo que morir él y no tú? Todos lamentaban que se hubiera emparejado conmigo. Incluso yo lo lamentaba. Me expulsaron de la manada sin nada. Sin título. Sin la compensación de una Luna. Sin un hogar al que pudiera llamar mío. Y entonces… quizá la Diosa Luna se apiadó de mí. Me dio una última oportunidad para reescribir el destino. Esta vez, no suplicaré por su amor. Esta vez, no lo ataré al dolor. Esta vez, romperé el vínculo antes de que empiece. Ya podía escuchar los engranajes del destino girando, y esta vez, yo daría el primer paso.

Una mujer madura, con una figura envidiable y curveada, vino a buscarme para una consulta. Ya dentro del consultorio, se acomodó de espaldas sobre la camilla. Sin dudarlo, se levantó la falda y me suplicó que le hiciera una revisión completa. En cuanto terminé de ajustarme los guantes médicos, ella se movió hacia mí con urgencia. —Ayúdame, por favor... rápido, te lo ruego.

—¿Señorita Ximénez, está segura de abortar? Diana Ximénez estaba aturdida, pero la insistente pregunta del doctor la hizo reaccionar de golpe. Abrió los ojos desorbitada, como si no creyera lo que veía. No fue hasta que el doctor repitió la pregunta que comprendió, ¡había renacido! En su vida anterior, justo ese mismo día, descubrió que estaba embarazada y tomó una decisión que le haría pagar un precio devastador. El doctor insistió de nuevo: —¿Señorita Ximénez? —¡Sí! Esta vez, la respuesta de Diana fue firme, aunque con un leve temblor en la voz. ¡Esta vez no cometería el mismo error!

Lyra Cross knew exactly what she was doing when she walked down that aisle. Marrying Killian Maddox wasn’t love, it was strategy. A peace treaty in a leather jacket. The Crimson Fangs’ princess had just one mission: infiltrate the Iron Revenants, spy on the enemy, and burn their empire from the inside out. What she didn’t plan for was Dominic “Grave” Maddox. Her new father-in-law. Forty-two. Billionaire. Biker king. Deadly in every way that mattered. One kiss from him, and the mission started to crumble. Somehow he saw through her lies, stripped her walls bare, and made her forget who she was supposed to be. The way he looked at her wasn’t right… it was sinful. And when he touched her, it felt like a war she didn’t want to win. Back home, her father and her biker-boyfriend Marcus were waiting for the signal. They thought she was still their weapon. But Grave made her something else entirely. His. Now she is trapped between blood and desire, vengeance and addiction because the man she’s falling for isn’t just her enemy… he might be the monster who killed her mother. When that truth comes out, it won’t just break their twisted bond. It will start a war that leaves nothing but ash and sin behind.

"I thought I was paying a debt. I didn’t realize I was selling my soul." Lizaib "Iza" Moreno had one rule: Don’t look him in the eye. To save her father from a death sentence handed down by the city's most ruthless underground fixer, Iza enters a cold, calculated arrangement with Dark Valerius Thorne. He is a man of shadows, a predator who treats pleasure like a business transaction and emotions like a weakness. For six months, she belongs to him—no names, no strings, and absolutely no falling in love. But the dark has a way of swallowing you whole. On the final night of her contract, Iza disappears. She leaves behind the silk sheets of Dark’s penthouse and the suffocating heat of his touch, carrying a secret that could destroy them both: She’s pregnant with the devil’s heir. Six months later, Iza is living a quiet life under a new name, thinking she finally escaped the Thorne empire. But Dark doesn't lose what belongs to him. When he finds her—distressingly beautiful and visibly carrying his child—the "no-strings" arrangement is officially dead. Now, he isn’t just demanding the debt be paid. He’s claiming his family. As Iza is dragged back into his world of blood and luxury, she discovers a terrifying truth: her father’s debt wasn't an accident. Dark has been waiting for her since the very beginning. And this time, he’s never letting her go.

Ivy Sinclaire was born powerful—Heiress to House of Valemont and Manhattan royalty. Power doesn’t stop betrayal from crawling into her life—all cloaked in the form of her husband and her closest friend/ legal counsel. On the night she receives her Woman of Year award in global business, she walks into her office and finds Harry between Vivienne’s legs on her Italian marble desk—the same one she had closed multi-million deals on. The same night, her car crashes in a fiery wreck, and she’s declared dead, but alas! Ivy isn’t dead. She is saved by the one man who’s always wanted her and her nemesis. Chase Sterling. An arrogant billionaire and philanthropist in a tailored suit. A man who’s watched Ivy from the shadows for years. Keeping his distance, waiting for the perfect moment to swoop in and be her hero. “They tried to kill you and they almost succeeded,” Chase scoffs, adjusting his cufflinks. “I shouldn’t have trusted them,” Ivy wipes the tears streaming down her cheeks violently. “So what now?” She looks him dead in the eye. “I’ll give you 30% of House of Valemont. In return, you help me destroy them.” Reborn as Victoria St. James, Ivy returns to New York—unrecognizable, vengeful, and dangerous. With Chase at her side, she sets the stage for a merciless takedown, but as their dark alliance deepens into something twisted and magnetic, the question remains: who’s really in control? Because Chase didn’t just save her… He remade her, and he has no intention of letting her go.
