Alphabet Lore Y Screaming

What does the underboss of an infamous crime family have in common with a spirited primary school teacher? Absolutely nothing, except a marriage of convenience, of course. When Lionel Tyson defaults on a gambling debt and offers his most prized possession as collateral, Austin Hawthorne is underwhelmed. But in desperate need of a housekeeper and permanent child minder, he knows he’d be an idiot to look a gift horse in the mouth. So, against his better judgement, he accepts an offer he should absolutely refuse. Marybeth Tyson is horrified to learn that not only is her father wanted by loan sharks, but he has also sold her off to a mafia boss. Bound by duty and pushed by guilt, she agrees to give Austin Hawthorne one year of her life, despite common sense screaming at her to run the other way. After all, how hard can pretending to be madly in love with someone be? It’s all fun and games until play pretend becomes all too real, and an earth-shattering secret from Austin’s past comes to light, threatening to destroy his second chance at love with his dogged pursuit for answers. Betrayal, especially at the hands of his older brother Blake and long-time friend, Andrei Ivanov, is a bitter pill to swallow for Austin, and letting them off scot-free is not an option. Driven by his unquenchable thirst for revenge, Austin will stop at nothing to get to the truth, even if it means destroying decade-old friendships and fragile ties to The Corporation. 2022 Val Sims.

“I'm going to make you forget every reason why this is wrong. By the time I'm done with you, the only thing you'll remember is my name on your lips.” “This is insane… we shouldn't…” “Shouldn't what? Touch you like this? Make you come apart in my hands? Your body has already decided, sweetheart. It's screaming yes even when your mouth says no.” Raina thought inheriting a mansion would solve her problems. She was wrong. Instead, it came with two problems: a mansion full of secrets and two men who wanted to own every part of her. The first one is pure temptation. Lucien knew exactly how to make her beg, fucking her rough and desperately. The second one, Darius, wanted to ruin her in the most delicious ways. He didn't just want her body, he wanted to possess her soul, to make her his in ways that should have terrified her but only made her burn hotter. Lucien was her step-brother and Darius was her stepfather and professor, both off limits. Both made her wolf howl with lust. When the past came hunting with claws and bullets, Raina discovered she wasn't just fighting for the inheritance but also got her life. But some men will burn the world down to keep what's theirs, and she was about to find out just his far two obsessed wolves would go to make her theirs forever. Some inheritances come with a price. This one might cost her everything. Yet, this wolf doesn't share… does she?

Era la asesina más hábil de Don Alexander y su Consigliere, pero también su esposa secreta.

After the real son, Asher Vale, was brought back, everything in our house became tied to drawing lots. The chef of the day, who would have to cook a particular person's preferred dishes, had to be decided by drawing lots. Even our parents' kisses and hugs were chosen the same way. I always drew the short stick. The long stick, by default, belonged to Asher. He never had to do anything to receive our parents' love. Whenever I felt it was unfair and wanted to cry, Mom would scold me sharply, "I bought the lot-drawing box because I was afraid you'd feel hurt. I wanted to be fair to both of you. If you want something, decide it yourselves. Your father and I won't interfere. If you can't draw the long stick, you can only blame your bad luck." So I began practicing every day, shaking the box diligently, over and over, in hopes that one day, it would help me earn my parents' love. Unfortunately, for ten years, I never once drew the long stick. Until my birthday. Asher wanted to go to the amusement park, and Mom once again told us to decide by drawing lots. I secretly glued the two short sticks together and handed them to Mom, hoping to keep her with me. She slapped me hard across the face, screaming that I was cheating and disobedient. Then she stormed out of the house with Asher. When I fell to the ground, the short stick stabbed deep into my neck. 'I'm sorry, Mom. Next time, I'll work harder. Next time, I'll definitely draw the long stick.'

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers, "it's not your fault, Katia. " We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound... *** The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. Someone yells, “Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, “Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"

Today was like the day I met him: Me, riding a bicycle and him, walking down the pavement. I grab the handle of the bicycle and watch him as he make his way towards me. I do not know why I feel nervous. A trickle of sweat drip on the side of my face, my heart beat fast and I could hardly breathe. He was meters away, until it grow shorter to a foot and then bam, he bumped into me and we fall down, him on top of me. This felt like a deja vù, like it was our very first encounter. We scurried to get up but ended up bumping our heads together. I glared at him as he got up, He didn't even offer me a hand. He didn’t even give me a second glance. He just passed by me. Not noticing me. Not even looking at me. I let go of the bicycle and turn to face him. I remove the helmet that I was wearing and grip it tightly before screaming, “YAH! My hands curled into a fist and before I know it, the helmet I was holding was already flying towards him.I raise my hand as if to save him but it collided on his head right before I could even react. It sounded a hollow thump and a pronounced groan. His hands made his way to the back of his head as he turn and face me. With those eyes that seem like it was murdering me, he chase me off and I hastily took my bicycle and ran. I couldn’t help but feel happy instead of guilty as he ran after me. This was like before. This was like that summer, that summer I met him.

Fingí ser mi hermano gemelo—y ahora tengo cuatro compañeros destinados luchando por mí Mi hermano gemelo, Phoenix, estaba en coma. Así que hice lo único que tenía sentido: me corté el cabello, tomé su ropa y me presenté en su academia de élite fingiendo ser él. Pensé que lo más difícil sería mantener mi secreto. Entonces mi loba empezó a GRITAR cada vez que me acercaba a mis cuatro nuevos compañeros de equipo. Hayden, el capitán frío y arrogante que me acorraló el primer día y me exigió que me mantuviera lejos de él. Ahora no puede dejar de ponerme las manos encima. Zion, el coqueto relajado que descubrió inmediatamente que yo era una chica y desde entonces no ha dejado de burlarse de mí por eso. Finley, el dulce y confiable que me hace sentir segura… y que acaba de marcarme como su compañera destinada. Adonis, el genio silencioso con un lado oscuro que solo aparece cuando estoy cerca. Ahora todos lo saben. Todos me han reclamado. Y la ex-prometida de Hayden acaba de filtrar mi secreto a los medios, y ahora todos quieren que me vaya. Pero hay algo sobre tener cuatro compañeros destinados poderosos— Cuando alguien amenaza a uno de nosotros, tendrá que responder ante TODOS nosotros.

Tenía nueve meses de embarazo y estaba lista para dar a luz, pero mi esposo, Sean Conner, me encerró en el cuarto de almacenamiento del sótano y me dijo que retuviera el parto. Comentó que era porque la esposa de su difunto hermano, Quinn Faber, también estaba a punto de dar a luz ese día. Hacía años, Sean y su hermano habían acordado que el primer hijo nacido en la familia Conner sería criado como heredero y recibiría la herencia familiar. —El bebé de Quinn debe nacer primero —dijo Sean como si fuera algo trivial—. Ella perdió a su esposo y no tiene nada. Tú ya tienes mi amor, por lo tanto, es justo que la herencia sea destinada a su hijo. El dolor de las contracciones me dobló por la mitad y lloré, suplicándole que me llevara al hospital. Él me secó las lágrimas y con una tranquilidad inquietante, me dijo: —Deja de fingir. Luego, espetó: —Siempre supe que no me amabas. Todo lo que te importa es el dinero y el estatus. Forzaste el parto para robarle el lugar a mi sobrino... ¿Cómo puedes ser tan cruel? Con la cara pálida y temblando, logré susurrar: —No puedo controlar cuándo nace un bebé, esto es una coincidencia. Te juro que no me importa la herencia. ¡Yo te amo! Él soltó una carcajada llena de frialdad y me dijo: —Si me amaras, no habrías presionado a Quinn para que firmara ese contrato renunciando a la herencia de su hijo. Bueno, una vez que ella dé a luz, volveré a buscarte. Después de todo, el bebé que llevas en tu vientre lleva mi sangre. Sean se quedó fuera de la sala de parto donde estaba Quinn y solo después de que el recién nacido llegó al mundo, él se acordó de mí. En ese momento le ordenó a su secretario que me llevara al hospital, pero la voz de este tembló mientras decía: —La señora... y el bebé... Ambos han muerto... En ese momento, él perdió la razón.
