Arti Shallow

Elle pensait que sa vie était ordinaire. Jusqu’au jour où elle a croisé son regard. Quand Sophia romano, une talentueuse restauratrice d’art, est envoyée à New York pour restaurer une toile rare, elle ignore qu’elle vient de mettre les pieds dans l’antre du diable. Dante Velasco, milliardaire énigmatique et redouté, règne sur la ville avec un pouvoir absolu. Derrière ses costumes trois-pièces et son empire légal se cache un chef de la mafia impitoyable, capable d’écraser quiconque menace son règne. Mais une nuit, Sophia voit quelque chose qu’elle n’aurait jamais dû voir. Dès cet instant, elle devient une cible. Pourtant, au lieu de l’éliminer, Dante décide de la garder près de lui. Piégée dans une cage dorée, Sophia découvre un monde de luxe, de violence et de désir interdit. Dante est un homme dangereux, et il ne laisse personne s’approcher de son cœur. Mais Sophia est un mystère qu’il ne peut ignorer. Elle éveille en lui une obsession aussi brûlante que destructrice. Alors que les ennemis de Dante se rapprochent et qu’un complot menace de tout détruire, Elena devra choisir : fuir avant qu’il ne soit trop tard… ou succomber à l’homme dont elle ne peut détourner le regard, même si cela signifie brûler vive. Le danger a un nom. La passion aussi : Dante Velasco.

Evelyn was the runt of the pack. The Omega. The slave. After her mate, the Alpha, indirectly rejects her, she runs away. Disappearing off the surface of the earth. A contract binding her to the Alpha resurfaces, and Evelyn has to come back. But Alpha Xavier doesn't get to meet Evelyn again. He gets to meet Wicked Eve. The last existing multi-hybrid. The shallow remains of his broken mate. The contract only binds them for a year, and then they can split ways. But is Alpha Xavier ready to let her go?

I was a semi-retired actress, joining a divorce reality show with my billionaire husband. "I want a divorce." Facing the camera, I spoke calmly. Off-camera, Hector Sinclair frowned as he reviewed the scene with me. "You need to show more emotion when you say it. That’s what will get people talking, stir up discussion, and drive the views. "Otherwise, who’s going to believe you really want to divorce me? They’ll just think you’re acting again. “Use your head. I can’t guide you every step of the way." Yeah. To outsiders, I was nothing more than a pretty face—vain, shallow, and talentless. Meanwhile, he was a shrewd and cultured businessman, commanding a fortune worth billion. No one believed I would willingly give up the title of Mrs. Sinclair, not even Hector himself. However, he had no idea that this time, I meant it.

WANTED: Billion-dollar Mama Chloe Mae Bersales will do everything to wield the liberty she desires to attain in her entire life whereas Ira Miguel Greyson will bend heaven and hell just to protect his empire at all costs.

Tall, dark, and gorgeous with cobalt-blue eyes. It doesn’t hurt that he’s the billionaire owner of the resort we’re staying at. And all of it is just what I needed for my celebration weekend after graduating with my master’s. It’s our last girls’ weekend before my friends and I go our separate ways, and it’s going to happen with a bang. Literally. Hopefully. It would be a first. The desire was to keep things casual, but our connection is far too deep for that. Him being ex-military and me being an Army brat. The rules we each set up are shattered thanks to the raging passion between us. But eventually, I have to go home. What I never expected in a million years was that he might follow me. Enough swimming in the shallow end of the pool. We’re diving in deep.

On the day of Zephyr’s art exhibition, I saw people stand around a portrait of myself. My cheeks were flushed, and I was bare. My posture was the one we used in bed last week for fun. Zephyr even got the mole on my chest right. As people stared at me mockingly, I demanded, “Why did you do this to me?” He was unbothered. “It’s not as if I asked you to sleep with someone else.” But he did let people see how I looked when I was having an intimate moment with my own boyfriend! “It’s just a painting. Why are you being so petty?” I was stunned by the mockery in Zephyr’s gaze. Then, I called my assistant. “I’m attending the international art festival as the organizer.”

"You wanna try and be my medicine, Lilah?” He asked with a deep testing tone, keeping his voice quiet. "I can try.” I breathe out as I gulp when his grip tightens "Try me.” His hand slides up my throat, his long fingers wrapping tight around my jaw. “That's what you really want?" I nodded, sighing out a shallow yes, and I could see every muscle in his body tense, as he wets his lips; hoarsely murmuring his next sentence like its his last try at making me change my mind. "I'm dangerous, Lilah, this is your last chance." My stomach twists and knots, as I use every ounce of bravery I have. "Prove it then."

“I like pretty little girls who obey instructions before complaining. They don’t get to be punished.” His stubble brushed against my face and a low moan escaped me. Damn him! “Stay like this. Don’t move an inch.” What? “And for an entire week, this would be the only piece of material you get to put on.” Again, what?! ~+~ Camila Rose Frost, a club stripper, never expected her life to take such a turn. When he abusive boyfriend and boss entered into a contract with the enigmatic business tycoon, Lorenzo King Calloway. What starts as a business transaction quickly spirals into something far more intense. Bound by a contract and drawn into King's world, Camila finds herself struggling between separating from king to saving herself from his obsessed lover and a growing affection for him.

In the third year of our marriage, my husband's first love got a divorce. He gave her the forty-five thousand dollars we had saved for a house because she was left with nothing and struggling to make ends meet. I urged him to ask for the money back, but he pointed at my face and angrily shouted, "You used to be so gentle and virtuous—what happened? Why are you so selfish, so shallow now?" "Is forty-five thousand dollars really worth you making a fuss over?" "Chloe is starting over with nothing, raising a child on her own. Don't you feel any sympathy for her?" Fine. He was noble, he was merciful. I did not argue further, because the one who needed money for cancer treatment was him, not me.

She was a slave that everyone hated. Amber had spent most of her life serving in the Moonstone pack, scorned and despised by everyone. No one knew where she came from or why she remained in the pack—no one but Alpha Derrick, who was determined to keep her close and under his control at all costs. Amber was convinced she was nothing special, since she was yet to gain her wolf at twenty-four—an anomaly that only deepened the ridicule she faced—until the most feared and powerful Lycan King took notice of her shallow existence, and her world is turned upside down, forcing her to confront her past and ask questions whose answers she was not prepared for: why was the Lycan King so invested in her? What was Alpha Derrick hiding about her past, and where the hell was her wolf?
