Arti People Come N Go

Iris Calloway is engaged to Lucien Blackwood, powerful, ruthless, and everything a future empire demands. A life of luxury, security, and devotion is already written for her. What no one knows is that her heart has already betrayed him. Adrian Blackwood is Lucien’s younger brother just as powerful, just as dangerous, and far more forbidden. He is the one Iris was never meant to want, the one whose quiet intensity ignites a fire she cannot extinguish. Loving him would destroy more than her engagement. It would shatter a dynasty. Adrian wants her too. He just knows better than to claim her. Caught between loyalty and desire, Iris must decide whether to honor the life she promised or surrender to the man who was never meant to be hers. But restraint crumbles, secrets unravel, and when she finds herself entangled with both brothers, the line between choice and ruin disappears. Because some loves demand sacrifice. Others demand destruction. And when desire refuses to choose, everything burns.

Le soir de notre neuvième anniversaire de mariage, mon mari Rémy, l'homme qui dirigeait la famille mafieuse le jour et faisait palpiter mon cœur la nuit, ne m'a pas offert de roses. Il les a données à Lise, son assistante personnelle. Sous le lustre où nous avions dansé en tant que jeunes mariés, il s'est tourné vers moi avec le charme qu'il avait autrefois lorsqu'il me murmurait son amour à l'oreille, la voix glacée. « Elle est enceinte », a-t-il dit, comme si cela expliquait tout, « et elle est difficile en ce qui concerne la nourriture. A partir de maintenant, tu devras lui préparer trois repas, sans répétition. » « Elle est sensible et n'aime pas dormir seule, alors tu devras mettre tes affaires dans la chambre d'amis. » La pièce était silencieuse. Je n'ai pas crié, je n'ai pas pleuré, j'ai juste pris ma valise et je me suis dirigée vers la porte. Le majordome a essayé de m'arrêter, et Rémy n'a même pas sourcillé. « Elle reviendra », a-t-il dit en secouant paresseusement son verre de vin rouge, « et dans trois jours, elle pleurera tout en me suppliant. » Les invités ont éclaté de rire. Ils ont parié un million d'euros devant moi. Ils pariaient pour savoir si j'allais supplier Rémy de me laisser entrer avant demain matin, comme un chien errant sans dignité. Mais ils ne savaient pas que j'avais déjà reçu le jeton de famille de mon vrai père et que j'avais réservé mon vol de départ. Cette fois, je partirais vraiment.

Olivia Grace was willing to sacrifice everything for the man she loved—Hunter Jackson. But every sacrifice was repaid with humiliation. When her husband threw a lavish birthday party at a nightclub for his ex-girlfriend, treating it like the grandest gift, and allowed Olivia to be publicly humiliated, her heart shattered into pieces.

C'était notre septième anniversaire de lien. Pourtant, Xavier Martin, l'Alpha qui contrôlait tout, a ramené à la maison sa maîtresse enceinte. Depuis sept ans, il me vouait un culte. Il baisait ma main devant tout le monde en disant que j'étais sa lune, la seule Luna de sa vie. Mais aujourd'hui, sa main reposait sur le ventre d'une autre louve, comme pour exhiber un miracle. « Elle porte mon premier petit. Tu as le pouvoir de la Déesse Lune. Je veux que tu la bénisses. De plus, elle fait des cauchemars durant sa grossesse, alors elle prendra la chambre principale. » Je suis restée figée, croyant avoir mal entendu. « Est-ce une plaisanterie ? C'est ma chambre ! » Il a levé les yeux, le ton chargé d'avertissement. « À partir d'aujourd'hui, c'est la sienne. » La colère a manqué de me faire rire. Ma voix tremblait, mais elle était claire. « Tu as mis enceinte une louve Oméga de bas étage et tu la ramènes dans notre maison ? Xavier Martin, tu as complètement perdu la raison ! » « Je ne le répéterai pas une troisième fois. Libère la chambre maintenant. » Son aura est devenue glaciale en un instant. Sa pression d'Alpha m'a frappée de plein fouet, faisant gémir ma louve en moi. Il a cru que j'allais me soumettre docilement, mais il ignorait que j'avais déjà fait mes valises il y a des semaines, quand j'avais reçu la vidéo de son adultère. Alors que je marchais vers la porte d'entrée, je l'ai entendu ricaner derrière moi : « Laisse-la faire sa crise. Elle reviendra rampante dans moins de trois jours. » Les membres de la meute ont ricané dans mon dos, pariant déjà sur le nombre de jours que je tiendrais cette fois. Cependant, la voiture privée envoyée me chercher attendait déjà devant la porte. Cette fois, je rompais définitivement avec lui.

Para kay Josephine Thomas, ang arranged marriage niya kay Nicholas Herrera ay hindi isang sakripisyo kundi isang katuparan ng matagal na niyang pangarap. Mahal niya ito mula pa noon pa man. Kahit alam niyang isa lang siyang ampon at ginamit ng pamilya niya para sa negosyo, hindi siya nagreklamo. Kahit malamig si Nicholas at hindi siya minahal pabalik, tiniis niya ang sakit. Ngunit ang akala niyang magiging daan para mahalin siya ng asawa ay siya ring sumira sa kanya. Sa araw na balak niyang sabihin kay Nicholas na buntis siya, nakita niya ito sa ospital, kasama ang babaeng totoong minamahal nito. At sa harap ng mga mata niya, narinig niya ang pinaka-masakit na salita. “Magpapakasal na kami, Josephine. Magpa-file na ako ng divorce.” Gumuho ang mundo niya, pero hindi siya sumuko. Kahit delikado para sa puso niya, pinili niyang ituloy ang pagbubuntis. Hanggang sa isang araw, nawala siya sa buhay ni Nicholas… at hindi na muling lumingon. Apat na taon ang lumipas, at muling nagkrus ang mga landas nila. Sa pagkakataong ito, si Nicholas na ang humahabol. Puno ng pagsisisi, gustong bumawi. Pero may puwang pa ba siya sa puso ni Josephine? O huli na ang lahat para sa kanilang dalawa?

— Luna, a cirurgia para remover a marca do Alfa é excruciante. Depois disso, você será tratada como uma renegada sem alcateia. Tem certeza absoluta de que deseja seguir em frente com isso? — Sim. Eu quero ser uma renegada. O curandeiro do mercado negro estava completamente atônito. Todo o mundo dos lobisomens acreditava que o Alfa Ethan estava perdidamente apaixonado por mim. Há apenas alguns dias, ele havia gasto cem milhões de moedas de ouro para me comprar a "Mansão do Luar", enchendo-a com minhas flores da lua favoritas. Inúmeras lobas sonhavam em ser marcadas por um Alfa tão apaixonado e poderoso. Mas eu não hesitei. Após remover a marca, imprimi um Acordo de Rescisão de Vínculo de Companheiros e reservei um voo para uma alcateia europeia para uma semana depois. Adeus, Ethan.

On our wedding day, Carter Hall's father took his own life in our new home. He left a suicide note, blaming me for his death. From that day forward, Carter despised me to the core. He said, "Lindsey Thomson, you deserve to rot in hell, atoning for your sins for the rest of your life." Eventually, just as he wished, I wandered the streets, mute and half-insane, living a life worse than a stray dog. But then, he regretted it.

I wheel myself into the birthday celebration that Wales Price has thrown for me. The atmosphere is originally lively, but a brief silence descends when everyone sees me. The guests are there for different purposes, but celebrating my birthday is not one of them. "Is that Mr. Price's crippled fiancée, Joey Hertza?" "Yeah, but the one he really loves is Anna Giovanni. I saw them kissing in a corner earlier." They use their wine glasses to block their mouths as they speak loudly. They think I'm still the crippled deaf I used to be. They don't know that I regained my hearing last week. I can hear every mocking comment they make. Meanwhile, Wales stands there and allows it to happen. He doesn't stop the guests from talking about me. He seems to have forgotten that I only ended up like this while protecting him. I shoved him away when the accident happened and got trapped underneath the car myself. When I was rescued, Wales swore to stay with me and care for me for life. It's only been three short years since then, but he's already changed. I receive a message on my phone. "Ms. Hertza, the lifelike corpse that you've ordered is now complete. Reply to this message with your confirmation, and your death-faking service will be immediately effective. We will send the corpse to your and Mr. Price's wedding in five days." I don't even hesitate as I reply with my confirmation. Enjoy your wedding, Wales.

Everything was going downhill. Caterina Mari Santelli is having trouble. At first she struggled to remember who the man in her hospital room was. Now, she doesn't exactly know if she loves him or hates him even more (the thought of planning a wedding to a man you hate isn't exactly inviting). She's also in distress knowing that her plans aren't going the way she planned. To add to her list of dilemmas, she's having PTSD and is afraid to even hold a gun, much more shoot one. Lucas De Marchi is just a dazed man walking. Something warm towards Caterina was building inside of him. He knows exactly what that feeling is and knows exactly how dangerous it is. But despite his efforts to stop his feelings, he always finds himself doing dirty business with her or for her. He's confused about Mari, and he's worried about his family and his sanity. To finally put that luscious cherry on top, Matteo Santelli, Caterina's uncle, has heard of her and Lucas' soon-to- be-wedding and is mad for being uninvited. Now the church doors are open. Only problem is, no one knows exactly if it's for a wedding or a funeral.
