Apex Loba

I stood on the pavement outside the townhouse that had been my sanctuary for ten years, watching the removal men haul out my life. Beside me, Lyle didn't even have the decency to look guilty. "It’s just business, Lolly," he’d said an hour ago, dropping the divorce papers onto the marble kitchen island. "You were a beautiful asset. But assets fucking depreciate." Now, I was a 'no one'. No money, no keys, and my reputation dragged through the mud. I stared up at the window of my bedroom. Krista – my ex best friend – was up there right now.. I turned. A man leaned against the frame of a waiting black saloon car. He didn't look like a bloody saviour. He looked like the devil, and right now, the devil was exactly what I needed. "I'm Franco," he murmured. "And I think Lyle just made the biggest mistake of his pathetic life. He thinks he broke you. I think he just let you off the leash." The heat radiating off his body was a phenomenal. I had just lost my husband, but standing this close to Franco, the only thing I felt was a sudden, violent ache. He held out an invitation. The Apex Bloom. A survival game for the elite. The prize is a billion pounds. But it doesn't reward beauty. It rewards the hunger of a woman who has nothing left to lose." A sharp shock shot through me, and I let out a soft gasp. He stepped half an inch closer, his thigh brushing against mine. He knew what that touch did to me. He wanted it just as much as I did. "Rule one," Franco whispered. "In my arena, the only way to bloom is to bleed. Are you ready?"

A small-time office worker—constantly being pushed around by others and abandoned by his wife—turned into the richest of the rich overnight.

Cuando mi compañero Alfa, Logan, notó que no había enviado ni una sola solicitud de gastos en tres días, se puso en contacto conmigo por iniciativa propia por primera vez en la vida. —Cariño, ya aprobé la siguiente fase de la sanación de tu loba. ¿Ves? Siempre y cuando te comportes, tendrás todo lo que quieras. Su tono seguía siendo muy afectuoso, como si en verdad fuera un buen Alfa muy preocupado por su compañera. Pero él no sabía que, mientras ese “Cariño” aparecía en la pantalla de mi celular, yo ya había terminado de redactar el acuerdo de ruptura del vínculo de pareja. Antes de irme, lo único que podía llevarme conmigo era la vieja camiseta que llevaba puesta cuando él me marcó. Nadie creería jamás que la amada Luna de la Manada Blackmoon, en los tres años transcurridos desde nuestra ceremonia de unión, ni siquiera pudo reunir cinco vestidos decentes que fueran suyos. Cada gasto del hogar que realizaba debía ser aprobado mediante el sello de la Luna, el símbolo mismo de mi poder. —Sienna, llevar las cuentas es demasiado cansado. Te agotará. Deja que Chloe se encargue del trabajo tedioso con el sello. Todo lo que tienes que hacer es ser hermosa, solo sé mi Luna perfecta. Y así, el sello de la Luna, que debería haber sido mío, se convirtió en algo por lo que tenía que rogarle a Chloe, la asistente del Alfa que supuestamente estaba encargándose del trabajo tedioso por mí. Hace tres días, mi loba estaba al borde del colapso. Lloré y le supliqué por los doscientos mil dólares necesarios para una intervención de emergencia. Pero Chloe retuvo el sello a propósito y retrasó la aprobación diciendo que no se había seguido el proceso adecuado. Mi loba, que ya estaba por desvanecerse, se sumió en un silencio en las profundidades de mi alma. Y de la misma manera, la relación con este Alfa también murió.

Por centésima vez, mi Alfa y compañero, Ryker, usó su voz de mando sobre mí, amenazando con rechazar nuestro vínculo si no me sacrificaba por mi hermana gemela, Ivy. No lloré ni protesté. Simplemente firmé los papeles de rechazo del vínculo de compañeros. Le entregué a mi hermana al Alfa que había amado durante diez años. Pocos días después, Ivy armó un escándalo en el Banquete de la Alianza de Manadas, humillando a la hija del Alfa de Silvermoon. Una vez más, di un paso al frente para ocupar su lugar, soportando el dolor de una marca de plata desfigurante. Más tarde, cuando exigieron que probara la seguridad del Ritual de Regeneración del Espíritu Lobo con mi propio cuerpo por el bien de mi hermana, acepté con una sonrisa. Mis padres, ambos Betas, me dijeron con los ojos enrojecidos, que finalmente estaba siendo la hermana mayor que se suponía que debía ser. Incluso Ryker, que siempre había sido tan distante conmigo, se detuvo ante la celda. Acarició suavemente mi mejilla por primera vez en mucho tiempo y dijo en voz baja: —Harper, no tengas miedo. Tan pronto como termine la prueba, te llevaré a ver las auroras al Lago de la Diosa de la Luna. Pero él no sabía que, independientemente del resultado de la prueba, no volvería a verme jamás. Mi espíritu de loba ya se estaba desvaneciendo. Nada podía salvarme. Esta vez, cuando cerrara los ojos, sería para siempre.

MATURED CONTENT!!! “ I could smell how much you want us.” I moaned, my body arching against his touch. I felt hands on my body, fingers tracing the curves of my breasts, my hips, my thighs. I shivered in pleasure, my body on fire. Ryker leaned in, his breath hot against my ear as he whispered, "You have no idea how badly we've been longing for this. Caspian chuckled darkly, his large hand cupping one of my breasts. "Mmm, and what a sight you are. So wet for us already." Thane's voice was a rumble in his chest as he ran his fingers along my inner thigh. “I could taste your desire, even in your sleep. You've been craving our touch." At the prestigious Crescent Academy, power is everything, and Omegas like Aria are nothing. Forced into the lowest class due to a suppressed wolf form, Aria endures humiliation, cruelty, and punishment just to earn her freedom from her manipulative stepmother’s grasp. But Aria isn’t weak. She’s hiding something far more dangerous than anyone can imagine. An ancient, overpowered lineage that could tip the balance of the entire werewolf world. When she crosses paths with the untouchable Apex brothers, sparks fly, tempers flare, and forbidden bonds begin to form. Cold and brooding Kaid. Flirtatious and broken Ryker. Gentle and haunted Thane. Reckless and loyal Caspian. They’re drawn to the girl who refuses to kneel, even as their enemies conspire to tear them apart. As a deadly rogue faction emerges and secrets buried in blood and betrayal come to light, Aria must embrace the monster she was told to fear… or lose everything. Fate gave her four mates. Power made her a target. But it’s her rage that will make her a legend.

Quando meu companheiro Alfa, Logan, percebeu que eu não havia submetido uma única solicitação de despesas em três dias, ele entrou em contato comigo por conta própria, pela primeira vez. — Baby, eu já aprovei a próxima fase do tratamento da sua loba. Está vendo? Se você se comportar, não há nada que eu não te dê. Seu tom de voz era afetuoso, como se ele realmente fosse um bom Alfa, preocupado com a sua companheira. Mas o que ele não sabia era que, quando ele disse "bebê", eu já havia terminado de redigir o acordo para romper nosso vínculo de companheiros. Antes de partir, a única coisa que eu consegui levar comigo foi uma velha camiseta, que eu costumava usar quando ele me marcou. Ninguém acreditaria que a adorada Luna da Alcateia Lua Negra, em apenas três anos desde a cerimônia, não conseguisse juntar cinco vestidos decentes que fossem realmente seus. Toda despesa de casa que eu fazia precisava ser aprovada com o selo da Luna, o símbolo do meu próprio poder. — Sienna, cuidar das contas é cansativo demais. Isso vai te desgastar. — Deixe a Chloe cuidar desse trabalho tedioso. Tudo que você precisa fazer é ficar bonita e ser a minha Luna perfeita. E assim, o selo da Luna que deveria ser meu, acabou se tornando algo que eu precisava implorar para a Chloe, a secretária do Alfa, que supostamente estava "lidando com o trabalho tedioso por mim". Três dias atrás, minha loba estava prestes a colapsar. Eu chorei e implorei pelos duzentos mil necessários para a cirurgia de intervenção. Mas Chloe deliberadamente reteve o selo, atrasando a aprovação sob a alegação de procedimento inadequado. Por fim, minha loba, já fraturada, ficou completamente silenciosa nas profundezas da minha alma. E ali eu soube: não havia mais nada entre mim e aquele Alfa.
