Me incorporé de la cama de Antonio Toscano. Con toda tranquilidad, me tendió el sostén y dijo: —Cambié el código de la puerta. De ahora en adelante, si no hace falta, mejor no vengas. Me quedé helada un segundo y, sin pensarlo, pregunté: —¿Por qué? Él sonrió de medio lado. —Ayer ella aceptó ser mi novia. No quiero que te vea y se enoje. Me costó mucho tiempo conquistarla.

En el festival de la manada, una bruja me entrega un orbe de cristal que revela la verdad. Cuando le pregunto por qué, me dice que le fue encomendada su tarea y me recuerda que solo lo use cuando esté sola. A medida que la imagen en el orbe se hace más clara y aparece mi compañero, me olvido de cómo respirar. —Jared Hamilton, ¿me amas? —pregunta una mujer con su voz más dulce, rodeándole el cuello con sus brazos. —Sí. Claro que sí. Eres la única a quien amaré el resto de mi vida, Luciana. Mi mano resbala. Incluso después de que el orbe de cristal toca el suelo, todavía puedo oírlos hablar. —Juro ante la sagrada Diosa de la Luna que estaré contigo, Luciana Rose, hasta mi último aliento. Si alguna vez rompo este juramento, que nunca vuelva a conocer la alegría. Me siento sofocada. Solo puedo mirarlo con incredulidad. La mujer a la que jura amar de por vida no es otra que mi mejor amiga.

"I believe we spoke on the phone today. I hope everything is in order?" As smooth in person as on the phone I turned and was met with the full force of his good looks. Just have me right now my inner wolf screamed. Dark rich hair, just long enough for a few curls to tease his forehead, coffee-coloured eyes, and olive skin. Several inches taller than me and was built like a Greek statue. Perfection. The crushing disappointment of his good looks hit me. He was definitely a shifter and therefore totally, immediately and forever off limits. Human’s just never look that good. Selene doesn't want a mate. She's ambitious, determined and independent. To end up shackled to a man who won't support her dreams like her sisters is her worst nightmare. The mate-bonds monthly heat, overwhelming lust-fuelled insanity terrifies her control-freak nature. Rocco doesn't want a mate either. Running a buzzing casino gives him ample opportunity to sleep with all the beautiful human women the city has to offer. Shifters are a hassle. Even beautiful, blonde haired wonders like Selene. Yet when their paths cross sparks fly. However the local Alpha loves taking proud women down a peg, his head Beta desires Selene and Rocco wants to kill them both. They are fighting against the very thing that may keep them alive as the cruelty of the pack's leadership turns against Selene. Her trick of hiding in a hotel and lying to her family every full moon can only last for so long...

I hid behind a thick tree trunk and watched silently as a grizzly bear attacked my husband. In my previous life, I was a guide. I led my husband—an environmental photographer—and his female colleague into a nature reserve to film wildlife. While scouting the route, I discovered a nursing grizzly bear and immediately warned them not to take any photos and to retreat slowly. To my shock, they intentionally bumped into me, causing my right leg to be cut and bleed. The scent of blood enraged the bear, and it charged straight at me, sinking its massive jaws into my abdomen. After the bear left, my husband calmly stripped me of all my equipment. Then, wrapping his arms around his female colleague, he kissed her. He turned to me with a sinister smile creeping across his face. "Kate," he said, "I'll be honest. I never loved you. You're dying. Now, all your assets will be mine." I bled out and died. When I opened my eyes again, it was the morning of the day we entered the mountains.

*Excerpt from a small excerpt: Shophia Marin ran as fast as she could to escape the large mansion. Running a long distance, he probably couldn't catch up, she turned her head to see that the mansion was no longer there, so she took a break under the tree. System, is Ralius still chasing me? [ Host, stop chasing but... ] But what? [But when people ran out of here, it pissed him off... the host made him black... he was right behind the host] Huh!!! "Shophia Marin, I'm too far from the villa to run away to relax." - Ralius lifted Marin's chin and forced her to lean against the tree trunk to support her head with her hands, dark eyes looking at her. The black male villain is terrible, the system saves me. [Sorry host I can't help] "You are becoming more and more intelligent, next time I will monitor you." - Ralius carried Marin on his shoulder and returned to the mansion. "Forgive me, I don't want to be here." - Don't trust this useless system in the first place.

When I visit my girlfriend's house during the Christmas holidays, her cousin, Antonio Esposito, humiliates me in front of everyone because of a scar on the back of my hand. "This scar looks like a remnant of the crossfire with the mafia! Bianca, why did you think that bringing an ex-convict home was a good idea?" The entire Romano family stares at me in a mixture of horror and shock. My girlfriend, Bianco Romano, even shakes my hand off while staring at me in disgust. Not only does Antonio flip the table, but he also calls over a few hooligans in an attempt to take me to the local police station. "We must teach scumbags like him a lesson!" he declares. After that, Antonio and the hooligans strip off my jacket and strap me to the tree in the courtyard. They then attempt to force me to admit that I'm working for the mafia. I can only gnash my teeth together stubbornly, refusing to yield no matter what. What they don't know is that the scar is a medal from my time in a peacekeeping war as a soldier!

I quickly rushed ahead and saw her lying near the edge where the huge cut tree had fallen a few days ago. Half of her body was resting in water while the other half was resting on the side of the tree. "No," I whispered as I ran ahead, instantly jumping into the river and grabbing her body, pulling it into my arms. I was sniffling and trying to hold back my tears while I swam back to land. Once she was placed on the ground, I looked at her helplessly, tears running down my cheeks. My body was trembling, and my wolf was whimpering loudly. I felt nauseous, and my head was throbbing badly. "She's fine," I said to myself in a cracked voice as I raised my hand and placed it on her chest. "Alpha!" Harvey called when he reached where I was. I looked at him with blurry vision, then back at my mate. "Why?" I whispered in a cracked voice. "Why can't I feel her heartbeat, Harvey?" I asked with a heavy heart, then moved my hand to my chest as I felt like I was suffocating.

Durante las vacaciones de Navidad, mi novio León Ríos me pidió que le ayudara a cuidar al perro de su amiga de la infancia, Elena Navarro. Pero cuando llegué con la comida para perros, un enorme pitbull me derribó de inmediato, mordiéndome sin piedad. Por suerte, un vecino me rescató de las fauces del perro, pero me quedé con una cicatriz terrible en la cara. Tenía el rostro desfigurado de por vida. Quedé destrozada, y León me culpó: —Seguro lo hiciste mal y lo enfadaste. ¡Tú solo perdiste la cara, pero Toto perdió la vida! Al final, la presión me llevó a saltar desde un edificio alto. Al morir, vi a León y a Elena abrazarse. —Qué listo fuiste, amor, dejaste a Toto sin comer días para que, hambriento, matara a Sofía Vega. Ahora que murió, por fin podemos estar juntos. Al abrir los ojos, había vuelto al día en que León me pidió que fuera a alimentar al perro.
