"Ce qui ne nous tue pas nous rend plus fort" Je n'étais pas morte, du moins pas physiquement, mais je ne me sentais pas plus forte pour autant. J'étais surtout vide. En perdant l'homme de ma vie je m'étais perdue moi même alors j'avais tout quitté: travail, famille et amis pour tenter de me reconstruire loin de lui. Je me sentais désormais prête à plonger dans l'inconnu. Mon inconnu. *contient des scènes suggestives*

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.

HUNCHING my shoulders against the cold, I watched my breath mist out in front of me. It was either that or head into the convenience store opposite and grab some cigs, which I couldn’t do. Ma’d already threatened to lop off my head if she caught me stinking of smoke, and while I wasn’t averse to a clipped ear, what with being twenty, I didn’t give much of a anymore. My wrist was , thanks to how many times Da had broken it, and I’d been shot at twice. I could cope with her pulling on my ear like it was stuck on with Velcro. Dealing with Mariska’s repugnance, however, was another matter entirely.

Après six ans de batailles sanglantes, je suis revenu en tant que roi du monde. Grâce à ce corps, je pourrais combattre les canailles tout en protégeant ma charmante femme et mon mignon enfant.

I am Angel Lim. An avid fan of a popular novel called, 'The Angel They Adored'. It was a reverse harem story where countless men fell in love with the heroine. It's a great masterpiece but I always hated it whenever the greatest villainess harrases her. Yes. That's what I thought before reading the last chapter of the novel. It was the dying moment of princess Ledecia and for the first time, she reminisced her life. "Why did I even exist in the first place if all in my life I'll be in pain?" Those are the last words she utters before dying. And It was very painful. *Knock knock* I paused my thoughts when I heard a loud knock coming from the front door of my apartment. "I'm coming" "Delivery from lily's shop ma'am" I opened my door as I slowly approached the man standing before me. "Oh sorry? But I didn't---" realizing what he said, I immediately tried to said that I didn't order anything but my words were interrupted by a sudden pain. A sharp thing, pierced through my stomach I groaned as I see the blood flowing from my chest. How unfortunate. I wish I had treasured my life more. In the middle of losing conciousness, my honest feeling came out If I'll have the chance to live once again, I'll live free and happy. But then when I opened my eyes, I was transported into Princess Ledecia's body - a villainess from my favorite novel!

— «Tu aurais dû fuir, Mira, je ne suis pas celui que tu crois. » Et sans me laisser le temps de réagir, il se penche sur moi et m’embrasse. Pas doucement, pas tendrement non plus, mais avec cette intensité brute et affamée qu’il contient… comme s’il attendait ce moment depuis une éternité, comme si retenir ce désir l’avait torturé. Il grogne contre mes lèvres, ses doigts s’enfoncent un peu plus dans ma nuque, son autre main descend, glisse le long de mon corps et attrape ma hanche avec force… Elle, c’est Mira, bientôt vingt ans : une petite humaine ordinaire, avec des rêves plein la tête, qui s’apprêtait simplement à rejoindre ses grands-parents dans la réserve d’Eyden-Stood. Un lieu isolé, paisible, presque figé hors du temps. Elle pensait y trouver du calme, un peu de répit, mais cette semaine va changer toute sa vie. Quand la lune est devenue rouge, quand elle s’est mise à briller haut dans le ciel, et que les loups ont hurlé à l’unisson. C’est cette nuit-là qu’elle a compris que les loups-garous n’existaient pas que dans les contes de fées. Mais ce n’était que le début… Ce que Mira va découvrir par la suite dépassera tout ce qu’elle aurait pu imaginer. Des secrets enfouis, mais aussi des vérités que personne n’ose prononcer, et qui vont changer tout ce qu’elle était, mais aussi, tout ce qu’elle pensait ne jamais être.

Addison wakes up thinking this day is going to be like any other, but soon she finds out her uncle has other plans: she is going to marry King Gregory Dominis, the most handsome yet intimidating man she has ever met and the ruler of a far away kingdom. Now she is going to be the wife of a man that terrifies her and the queen of a place she knows nothing about. ******* excerpt ******* “I have great news for you, Addison,” he announced. “You are to be married today!” At first, his words made no sense, how could I be getting married today if wasn’t even engaged? I didn’t even have a suitor! “Ma… married?” I babbled. “Yes, don’t you know what married means? I don’t understand why you look so baffled, girls your age marry all the time!” He exclaimed. The king was right, it wasn’t unusual for girls my age to get married in Lerene, but they were usually informed in advance, not the very same day of the wedding. “But… today? It is so soon…” I mumbled. “I know, but the groom is a busy man who has no time for a long engagement,” he said. His reply made me realize I hadn’t asked the most basic question. “Who is the groom?” “I am glad you asked, Addison, because that is the best part,” he said smirking. “You are to be married to King Gregory Dominis of Dranda.” My heart sinked into my stomach. I felt like I was going to get sick. Did he just say I was going to marry King Gregory Dominis? How could I marry a man I have never met? And he was not just any man but a king!

My boyfriend, Allen, is a fitness coach who is cheerful, handsome, and has eight-pack abs. After getting together with me, he transferred all his female students to other colleagues and would send me daily check-in photos. In anticipation of becoming his fiancee, I happily prepared for our engagement ceremony. However, two weeks before the ceremony, I discovered a bright red lipstick mark on Allen’s workout pants. I quickly pulled up the check-in photo he had sent me that day. Through the reflection on a dumbbell, I saw a woman standing next to Allen—her lips painted in the exact same lipstick color. Most of the previous photos had flaws, but I had trusted Allen too much to notice them. Looking at his message under the photo, I let out a cold laugh. "Baby, I have to work overtime today to train a male student." He actually dared to deceive me. Just then, my phone rang. It was the wedding planning company confirming the engagement ceremony setup. I quickly responded with a confirmation. The ceremony would proceed as planned—except I had a special surprise prepared for Allen, one he would never forget.

“Your name?” a woman who’s wearing a dress, has pale lips and short hair asked me. I stuttered. “L-Livia Washington, ma’am,” I answered. “My husband and I can’t produce a child. I need your help and in exchange, I will reward you with money at your price. Just help me…” she said, her face screaming desperation and almost pleading. Without further hesitation, I nodded my head. “Just tell me what you want me to do, Ma’am…” I didn’t know that an offer I would be accepting would ruin the pipe dream I yearned for. Money. I need money. Surrogacy is the only quick way to get a billion dollars just like what they offered. However, things didn’t go the way I liked. “You came out with a woman again?” I busted out in anger after waiting for Archer to come home. He only scoffed, he was supposed to come upstairs yet I held his hand. “Just to remind you, Archer, you still have a wife waiting for you!” His jaw clenched then took his arms roughly. “Then you should have thought of your husband before cheating on me, and bearing someone else’s child, then, Livia!” he backfired, critically narrowing his eyes on mine. Being married to Archer for five years never became easy. I’m tired of it and was tormented with the punishment he had given to me. “A divorce won’t happen, Livia. I won’t give you the freedom you want. This is your punishment,” he narrowed his rough, stoic voice before coming to his room directly.
