Alice Amore

It started with the most annoying encounter at the mall. One glance at him, she wished she never crossed paths with him again, He wished so too. Not until fate brought them back again. At her father's party. Something about her pulled him slowly and deeply without warning. He tried to shrug it off but he couldn't. Then one night, Alex had too many drinks and Alice is to meet her friend at the hotel when she walked into the room where he is...and they crossed a line they aren't meant to. During the act, he made it clear: He never wanted kids. She nodded, not until her test results came back positive. Years later, their paths cross again. He sees a little boy with his hair type....and he demands to know who he is. But the man beside her, Chris Wales, holds secrets darker than anyone suspected. Secrets that tie him to her blood in the most twisted way. Can a child mend what fate once broke? Or will secrets tear them apart once more? Or will secrets, lies, and a mother’s manipulations tear them apart once more?

On our first wedding anniversary, my husband came home with a woman who was six months pregnant. He introduced her as his cousin, someone who had fallen on hard times, and asked me to take care of her. I was just about to agree when fragments of imaginary commentary floated through my mind: [She's just my 'cousin'. Uh-uh, that's a cliche.] [Poor supporting female character! A maid by day, the husband's bedwarmer by night.] [But she totally deserved it! If she hadn't broken up the main couple, they'd have a whole soccer team of kids by now!] Wait—what? Supporting female character? Me? And what's this about breaking them up? So now these two get to cheat under my roof, and somehow I'm the villain? Before I could process it all, my husband was already dragging her luggage inside. "Alice doesn't like fried food," he said matter-of-factly. "And nothing too salty or spicy. Make sure you keep that in mind when you're cooking. "Oh, and pregnant women love sweets. Go out now and buy a cherry cake. The one from that bakery in the suburbs."

There is an adage that someone’s first love can never be forgotten, especially if it started from a childhood friendship up until them hating each other and not to forget the denial of one’s feelings. But one can only deny their feelings towards their other half, but can never deny the bond of a mate. Isabella Lenovo is Alpha Ledger’s sister and the childhood friend of Alpha Ryan. She has a twin sister who was also a childhood friend of Alpha Ryan and Alice, Alpha Ryan’s deceased sister. But an unfortunate accident broke the bonds between these friends. The once enviable friendship was now tainted with jealousy, envy, and resentment. The moon strikes back by making Ryan and Isabella mates. Would Isabella accept this and give in to the mate’s bond despite all odds? Ryan Stones, the alpha of pack Loren—a quick-witted man with soft features and a mind and will as hard as a stone—decided not to have anything to do with the Lenovo sisters after an accident that cost him something huge. He believes that the Lenovo sisters had a hand in this accident and he made a vow to get his revenge back on them. But would his plan waver when he figured out that Isabella was his mate or would he use that as an opportunity to get his revenge? Would their hidden love and bond for each other prevail, or would we say that the moon for once made a mistake?

My mate’s childhood sweetheart was throwing a tantrum again, so Henry wanted to break our mate bond once more. Though I felt despair, I still looked calmly at him as I said, “This is the eighth time you’ve broken our bond.” His eyes were full of guilt and helplessness as he gently cupped my face, pleading softly. “Nicole, you know I have no choice. Alice threatened to take her own life with a silver dagger again. I grew up with her. She’s like a sister to me. I can’t just leave her alone. “My love, don’t worry. I swear, once I’ve cheered her up, we’ll immediately re-establish our mate bond.” I stayed silent. He’d made this promise to me countless times, so much that we had formed a mate bond and broken it eight times. To the werewolf pack, a mate bond was sacred. But in his eyes, it was nothing. “Please, my love.” As he took out the potion to sever our bond, I quietly clenched my fists. “Okay.” After all, there won’t be a next time.

Amara, haletante et presque au bord de la rupture, elle murmura : — Valerio... je… putain, je ne peux pas... c’est... trop... Alors que je murmurais ces mots, le souffle coupé, il m'attrapa fermement les poignets, me forçant à les maintenir derrière mon dos. Sans hésiter, il continua de me pénétrer avec une intensité implacable, me consumant totalement dans cette étreinte brûlante qui semblait n’avoir aucune fin. — Ma douce, tu es tellement parfaite pour moi, tu le sais ? Tu vas jouir pour moi, amore ? me murmura-t-il avec une voix basse et rauque, tout en laissant sa main descendre doucement pour stimuler mon clitoris. Mes gémissements étouffés se perdaient dans l’oreiller. Il relâche mes poignets pour saisir mes cheveux, s’approchant pour me chuchoter à l’oreille : — Crie pour moi, Amara. Fais savoir à ton fiancé à quel point je te fais du bien dans son propre lit. Et c’est exactement ce que je fais. ------ **Amara Wilson** Je suis une jeune femme de 22 ans marquée par un passé douloureux. Mon père et mon frère me détestent et me blâment depuis quatorze ans pour la disparition de ma mère, une tragédie survenue alors que je n’étais qu’une enfant. Avant ce drame, nous étions une famille unie. Avant cela, nous étions une famille aimante qui passait les soirées à cuisiner ensemble et à regarder des films chaque vendredi. Mais ma mère cachait un secret… qui a bouleversé ma vie. **Valerio Hernandez** Chef impitoyable de la mafia italienne, âgé de 27 ans, indifférent à tout… sauf à moi. Sa famille est divisée : ses parents vivent en Grèce, son frère jumeau est resté en Italie. Bien que Valerio soit submergé par les affaires de la mafia, sa mission la plus importante reste… Moi.

Como minha irmã gêmea Ana sempre foi frágil, todos viviam mimando ela. No dia em que a nevasca isolou a montanha, o helicóptero de resgate tinha apenas uma vaga. Segurando meu diagnóstico de câncer terminal, quando eu estava prestes a entregar minha vaga para Ana, ela simplesmente levou a mão à cabeça, alegando tontura. Toda a família instantaneamente se aglomerou ao redor dela, carregando-a para dentro do helicóptero. Meu marido Heitor tocou meu braço fraturado e disse: — Alice, você terá que esperar pelo próximo. Minha filha Aurora até me atirou bolas de neve: — A tia Ana precisa mais do que você! Não monopolize! Só depois que o helicóptero decolou é que vi Ana mostrando a língua para mim triunfante pela janela — ela nunca tinha sentido tontura alguma. Depois de ser resgatada, descobri que tinha apenas três dias de vida. Para aqueles últimos dias, resolvi dar tudo de mim para trocar um pouquinho do amor da minha família.
