Anubis Kane Chronicles

A moan of pure pleasure escapes my mouth and he nips my lower lip, sending shock waves through my body. Pushing me onto my back, he continues to devour me - nipping at the skin along my neck and running his hand over the fabric covering my breasts. Heat builds up between my legs as I feel him harden against my thigh. I bite my lower lip and instinctively raise my hips against him. He moans and takes my face in his large hands. "Look at me. If we continue any further I'm not going to be able to stop myself. If we mate I will mark you and you'll be mine forever." He says slowly, the words penetrating the fog clouding my brain. "Is this what you want?" My body screams yes, but my mind forces me to be rational. "Not yet, eventually but not yet." I admit, running my hands through his hair. He sighs, disappointment evident before he rests his head on my chest. "I don't want you to get hurt by our matebond." I eventually say. "What do you mean?" He asks. I lift his hand and place it on my thigh, letting his fingers brush against the scars. "Kane told me that when you're mated, you feel everything your mate feels… I don't want that. I don't want you to feel if I die. " *** Natalia has spent the last ten years living in isolation, scarred from witnessing the massacre of her parents, she believes that the mate bond and love are a weakness she never wants to experience - even when confronted with her very own mate. Unfortunately for her, Liam, Alpha of the Dark Moon Pack has no plan on letting her go. Will succumbing to him save her, or will it be her ultimate doom?

I had spent my whole life living in the shadow of my sister, Juliana, the woman everyone in the mafia's heir circle adored and protected. She had no idea that I had been reborn. Just like in my previous life, she smiled sweetly and gently, insisting that I pick my fiancé first, pretending to be thoughtful and gracious. However, this time, I refused. In my previous life, I naïvely believed she meant well. I married the man she recommended, Chester Kane, an heir who was said to have been paralyzed after an ambush. I gave up my right to inherit the family, becoming his caretaker, his crutch, the medicine he used to fight loneliness. However, no matter how much warmth I gave him, his heart remained frozen. The truth only came out during my sister's pregnancy celebration. When an assassin from a rival family raised his gun toward her belly, the man who had not stood in years suddenly rose to his feet. He shoved me toward the muzzle of the gun. All seven bullets tore into my womb. As I collapsed, I saw him pull my sister into his arms, shielding her with his own body and taking the final shot for her. Only then did I understand. He had never been paralyzed. His family had never abandoned him. He pretended to be sick because Juliana's heart belonged to another man, and he refused to be tied to me. "I'm sorry, Tania," he said. "I lied to you. However, I couldn't let Juliana lose the heir she's carrying. I'll repay what I owe you in our next life." When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my father asked us to choose our marriage partners. This time, I chose no one. Yet back then, they were the ones who begged for my love.

Je suis enfermée dans le cellier par mes frères triplets Alphas après que ma belle-sœur, Elsa, m'ait accusée d'avoir tué sa louve en lui donnant un gâteau aux amandes. La sortie est scellée par des chaînes en argent et ma louve hurle et les supplie de me relâcher. Mais mes trois frères Alphas refusent. L'Alpha Kane, le plus âgé, grogne, « louve possédée ! Tu sais bien qu'elle est allergique aux noix, et tu as fait exprès de lui donner un gâteau aux amandes pour l'étouffer ! Tu ne sais pas que cela pourrait endommager sa louve de façon fatale ? Tu dois rester ici et réfléchir à ce que tu as fait ! » L'Alpha Kelvin, le second, et l'Alpha Karl, le troisième, se moquent, « quelle louve pitoyable que tu es ! Tu trouves encore des excuses au lieu d'avouer la vérité. Reste ici et souffre autant que tu le mérites ! » Après ça, ils se transforment et amènent leur petite Elsa tremblante à l'infirmerie des loups. Pendant ce temps, j'arrive à peine à respirer à cause de l'air empli de poussière d'argent. Ma louve hurle dans l'agonie, mais c'est inutile. Alors je meurs dans cet endroit. C'est seulement trois jours plus tard, après qu'ils aient ramené Elsa de l'infirmerie, que mon existence traverse à nouveau leurs esprits. Mais ils ne savent pas que je suis déjà morte dans ce cellier remplit de poussière d'argent.
