Arti Ich Liebe Dich

Drei Tage vor meiner Markierungszeremonie steckte jemand das Brautmodengeschäft in Brand, während ich drin mein Zeremonienkleid anprobierte. Alpha Marcus ließ den Brandstifter ins Rudelgefängnis werfen und verurteilte ihn zu der härtesten Strafe, die unsere Gesetze zuließen. Ich lag im Krankenhausbett, mein Körper übersät mit Verbrennungen dritten Grades, und wollte gar nicht richtig aufwachen, weil die Realität meiner Entstellung immer mehr auf mich einstürzte. In meinem halbbewussten Zustand hörte ich, wie Marcus mit der Heilhexe des Rudels sprach. „Alpha, wir können sie mit der alten Magie immer noch vollständig heilen. Wenn wir länger warten, wird Sarah diese Narben lebenslang tragen! Du willst doch nur, dass Miss Rachel an der Markierungszeremonie deine Luna wird. Das ist unmenschlich!“ „Sie soll die Narben behalten. Ich werde für sie sorgen, solange sie lebt, aber wenn sie geheilt wird, macht sie bestimmt Ärger bei der Zeremonie.“ „Ich habe Rachel versprochen, dass ihr Kind mit allen Ehren ins Rudel aufgenommen wird. Nur wenn Sarah völlig entstellt ist, wird sie dankbar genug sein, Rachels Kind wie ihr eigenes großzuziehen. Die Narben sind notwendig – so wird sie sich niemals trauen, das Kind schlecht zu behandeln.“ In der dunklen Ecke des Zimmers, wo niemand hinsah, lief mir eine Träne über die verbrannte Wange. Das war also die Wahrheit. Die Markierungszeremonie, von der ich immer geträumt hatte, war nichts als eine Lüge. Das Band, nach dem ich mich so sehr sehnte, sollte zu meinem Todesurteil werden. Wenn es so sein sollte, dann würde ich ihm geben, was er wollte.

Violet eyes with piercing sight. Mane of gold in pale moonlight. Skin so hard and lily white. Voice so soft, yet filled with might. He comes to me in the dark of night. Flash of teeth, smile so slight. There is no fear, no need to fight. In his embrace, I crave his bite. -S.R. Michele, or Shelly to those closest to her, is a typical 21 yr old, trying to find her way in life. She has good family, a close circle of friends. She's outgoing and friendly, and a bit reckless and impulsive sometimes. And she has certain gifts...when she touches things, she can see into the past, she can feel what was felt by others, and she can sense things before they happen. Ok, so maybe she's not so typical. An impromptu trip to New Orleans, a party on Bourbon Street, and an attempted assault in a dark alley lead her into a world she didn't know existed...but one she's not afraid of. She doesn't know if the violet-eyed stranger that comes to her rescue, and follows her home, is a friend or a foe - and honestly, she doesn't care. Once you've had a taste of the darkness, it's hard to pull away... **** This book was written in the late 1990's - early 2000's, and originally published in 2004, under the title: Diary of a Vampire by S.M. Royston. It was my first book, and it wasn't long until I came to hate it! (Please, don't look it up - I promise you, it's terrible) So here we are, years later, and I've decided to throw out my original work, and re-write it. Because I'm the author, and I can do that. The story, characters, and settings are the same - but the writing style is different, and in my opinion, much, much better. I hope you enjoy it. ****

***“Then came the words that shattered her world. 'I need a divorce,' Dennis said, his voice cold and bitter. Cardi froze.”*** Cardi Belmont was born into zillions—but all she ever wanted was real love. On the day the city waited to witness the union of two dynasties—Cardi Belmont and Alex Carlson—Cardi vanished. She didn’t want a marriage built on wealth or status. She wanted Dennis Blake. A simple man. A humble man. A man she believed would love her for who she was… not for her last name. In order to live a quiet life as the person Dennis believed her to be—a regular girl from nowhere—she gave up everything she had, including her mansion, name, and legacy. However, when Cardi eventually chooses to tell him the truth after two years of marriage, he beats her to it—with a truth of his own: He’s leaving her. For someone richer. Now, the woman who gave up everything for love has been dumped like a trash bag… and one question burns louder than all: How will Dennis react when he realizes he had dumped a wealthy lady for a rich one?

Love For The Wicked Book Three. In my eyes, the world is a huge sandbox created for the big boys. Girls, money, business… and I always strive to come out on top until my father gave me an ultimatum. I needed to find a wife, or I’d lose my rights to the family business. I found the perfect woman for the scheme I devised, of course. She was beautiful, feisty, the picture-perfect wife to make my father believe I was done playing games. In return, she needed a favor, the kind that takes nine months to deliver. The rules were laid out meticulously, from the no touching to fake falling in love. After a year, we would part ways amicably with no hassle, no demands, and no regrets; after all, it was all just a game. As my plan took its course, it dawned on me that playing house was a game I never should have played. She started to grow on me, from that sexy little pout to the late nightcap, the endless dirty banter, and even the fights we had. I realize I enjoyed having her around. Trouble is, how will I make her believe I am not playing games anymore? That I don’t want her to be just my contract wife, that I don’t want twelve months with her but more?

J'ai célébré notre troisième anniversaire de mariage avec une réception que j'avais soigneusement préparée. Mais mon mari, l'Alpha Johnny, est parti en vacances à la mer avec son assistante Émilie, me laissant seule au milieu des invités, livrée aux moqueries. Sous le regard des convives, j'ai composé calmement le numéro du complexe balnéaire, et j'ai même réservé tout le domaine pour eux deux. Ensuite, j'ai envoyé à Johnny la demande de rupture du lien conjugal, présentée comme une simple facture à signer. Dans ma vie précédente, pour préserver l'honneur de nos deux meutes, j'avais forcé Johnny à rester à mes côtés, tandis qu'Émilie était partie seule et avait trouvé la mort dans un accident de voiture. Johnny ne m'avait pas reproché sa mort, pas avant que je sois tombée enceinte. Il m'avait attachée dans une voiture et m'avait dit qu'il voulait que je ressente la douleur qu'Émilie avait endurée en mourant. Quand la voiture avait explosé, j'avais enfin compris que Johnny m'avait toujours haïe. Revenue à la vie, j'ai juré de tout lui reprendre, jusqu'à ce qu'il ne lui reste plus rien.

„Das ist also das Ende.“ … In einem Leben war Valerie, Luna vom Eclipse-Rudel, für ihren Partner gestorben, der sie nicht liebte, für eine Familie, die nur ihre Fehler sah, und für ein Rudel, das sie nie respektierte, weil alle ihre Adoptivschwester Alyn bevorzugten. Sie verbrachte ihr letztes Leben in Elend und Reue, nur mit den Spott ihrer Schwester. Selbst der Rest ihrer Familie konnte ihr in ihren letzten Augenblicken nicht beistehen. Aber jetzt war sie wiedergeboren. Sie erwachte Monate vor ihrem Tod und war bereit, ihr Schicksal zu ändern. Dieses Mal wusste sie, was sie zu tun hatte: Sie musste ihre Position als Luna und ihre Bindung zu ihrem Partner aufgeben und die Menschen zurücklassen, die sich nie um sie gekümmert hatten. Es war die beste Lösung für sie ... und ihr ungeborenes Kind. Aber als sie Tristan, ihrem Partner, der sie einst gehasst hatte, gegenüberstand, hatte sich sein Blick völlig verändert. Die Bindungen, von denen sie dachte, dass sie längst zerbrochen waren, waren nun noch komplizierter geworden, insbesondere da ein anderer Alpha um ihre Zuneigung buhlte. Und wenn es darum geht, die Vergangenheit hinter sich zu lassen und loszulassen, welchen Weg wird sie wählen?

After my father died, my mother remarried and took my younger sister and me with her. But her new husband had one condition—she could only bring one child. From people who used to hang around my dad, I later learned that my grandfather was actually a wealthy antique collector. My sister clung to him for her own future, refusing to let go. But in his eyes, her only job was to get straight A's; everything else—her clothes, her meals, her allowance—was kept to the bare minimum. I went with my stepfather instead. His business took off, and we eventually moved into a huge mansion. He even set me up with an engagement to the heir of a powerful, wealthy family. My sister was eaten up with jealousy. One day, she doused me in gasoline and dragged us both back in time to that day we had to choose our futures. This time, she lunged for my stepfather's hand and held on tight. "I want to stay with Mom and Dad," she announced. I didn't miss a beat. I immediately ducked behind my grandfather. 'Fine, Phoebe. You're the one who chose a life as a bargaining chip. Don't blame me for it. You can have it.'
