As Thick As Thieves

Everyone thought Stellar Rivers was a fraud—a fake heiress thrown out by the powerful Harlow family. They believed her real parents were supposedly poor nobodies from the countryside. With nowhere else to go, she clung to Percy Moore, the youngest heir of the illustrious Moore family. Try as they might, no one could drive her away. But when Stellar overheard that Percy planned to marry the Harlow family’s true heiress, her lifelong rival, everything changed. Fine, he could have his perfect match. Stellar wasn’t going to waste another moment on someone who didn’t value her. Instead, she turned her back on him and reclaimed the life that had always been hers. A country bumpkin? Hardly. It turned out Stellar’s real family was wealthier and more powerful than anyone could imagine. With four influential uncles showering her with love and protection, she was ready to take the world by storm. And while she believed in playing fair, she also knew one thing: revenge was best served by her own hand. Meanwhile, Percy’s perfect world began to unravel. Without Stellar, his life was a mess—his business floundered, his fiancée’s reputation crumbled, and his carefully constructed future came crashing down. Desperate and full of regret, he showed up at Stellar’s doorstep, begging her to come back. But Stellar only smirked, casually leaning onto the tall, devastatingly handsome man at her side. “Sorry, Percy. I don’t take back what I’ve already let go.” As if that wasn’t enough, Stellar even dismissed the powerful man standing beside her, leaving him in the dust. “I said it before, and I’ll say it again—I don’t go back to what’s already behind me.” Even Stephen Ward, who broken off their engagement before they ever met, found himself on his knees, pleading, “Honey, I was wrong. Please, give me another chance!”

After being humiliated by her fated mate, the Alpha’s golden son, and called a worthless omega in front of the entire Moonglow pack, Tiara’s world collapses. Even her favorite comfort, reading her beloved comic Hockey Star is Obsessed With Me, can’t save her from her pain. But one wish, saved through tears, changes everything. Tiara wakes up inside the comic’s story, in the body of the tragic heroine doomed to fail the one man who ever loved her: Luke Thorne, the immortal hockey star who hunts under the moon. She knows this story. Every twist. Every betrayal. Every heartbreak. But this time, she’s determined to rewrite the ending, to save Luke and maybe heal her own shattered heart. But Tiara soon discovers she’s not the only soul who doesn’t belong in this world… and some people will do anything to keep the story playing out as it was originally written.

Le jour de ma cérémonie avec Vincent Richard, le futur Alpha, la bague en pierre de lune qui m'était destinée, la future Luna, a mystérieusement disparu de l'écrin. À sa place se trouve une languette de canette déjà noircie par l'oxydation. Les applaudissements des invités s'éteignent immédiatement. Ils se tournent tous vers moi. Dans le silence, Joséphine Albert, l'amour d'enfance de Vincent, sort de la foule. Elle lève la main gauche et fait un signe de la main, la bague en pierre de lune sur l'annulaire. Puis, elle sort une bague assortie et la glisse au doigt de Vincent. « Tu dois être terrifiée, Angela, n'est-ce pas ? En fait, c'est moi qui porte la bague en ce moment. Cette languette de canette n'est pas un objet ordinaire, tu sais. Vincent me l'avait donnée quand nous étions encore des enfants. Elle symbolise l'amour éternel qui ne s'éteindra jamais. Maintenant, je te la donne. » Les paroles de Joséphine me transpercent le cœur. Je tremble violemment, comme si mon cœur était coupé en mille morceaux. Cependant, Vincent se contente de rire. « Joséphine a toujours des idées ridicules. Elle plaisante, Angela. Ne prends pas ses paroles au sérieux. » « Oh, je ne le ferai pas. » Je jette la languette de la canette dans le feu de joie, laissant échapper un petit rire sec. « Cette cérémonie est annulée. » Vincent m'attrape la main avant de me serrer dans ses bras. « Arrête de chercher à semer la zizanie, Angela ! Nous avons trouvé l'anneau, n'est-ce pas ? Cette alliance affectera l'avenir de nos meutes ! Ce n'est pas toi qui prends les décisions ici ! » Je me dégage de l'étreinte de Vincent, captant une trace d'odeur écœurante qui flotte autour de lui, une odeur qui n'est pas la mienne. « Il est vrai que la meute du Lac de la Lune va former une alliance avec la meute du Pierre Brun, mais mon futur compagnon n'est pas nécessairement toi. »

Muntik nang mamatay si Sunshine sa operating table dahil sa matinding pagdurugo mula sa isang ectopic pregnancy, habang ang asawa niyang si Shawn Navarro naman ay todo-celebrate ng birthday ng kaniyang kabit—high-profile at walang pakialam. Apat na taon silang kasal. Sa loob ng panahong iyon, sobrang humble at mapagtiis si Sunshine, pero kahit anong gawin niya, hindi pa rin niya natunaw ang puso ni Shawn. Lubos siyang nadurog nang makita niyang buong lambing at proteksiyon na inaalagaan ni Shawn ang anak ng mismong kaaway niya. Doon na siya tuluyang sumuko—iniwan niya ito dala ang isang kasunduan ng pakikipaghiwalay. Pagbalik niya sa workforce, buong puso niyang ibinuhos ang sarili sa career. Sa loob ng maikling panahon, ginulat niya ang buong siyudad at naging isang highly sought-after figure sa hanay ng mga elite. Nang makita ni Shawn na napapalibutan na siya ng mga manliligaw, hindi na mapakali ang cold-faced CEO. Siya mismo ang pumutol sa mga suitors at isinandal siya sa pader. “Mrs. Navarro, I don’t agree with our annulment!”

I died dreaming of Alpha Kai Feng pinning me to a bed and now I am finally in his room, but I am wearing his wife's skin. Getting into Luna Mei Ling’s body was supposed to be my ultimate fantasy come true, especially since Kai Feng is even more devastatingly hot in person than he was on screen. I want to spend every second exploring every inch of his massive, muscular frame, but this body is a wreck. The woman I replaced was drowning in grief over her lost son and I have inherited all her physical heartache. It is hard to focus on seducing my husband when the Empress Dowager is actively plotting my execution and the pack thinks I am a lunatic. A local priestess warned me that if I don't keep my title and save this marriage, Kai Feng will end up dead. I have to play the part of the grieving villainess just long enough to expose the truth about what happened to my child. I am trapped in a web of pack politics and high stakes, but I have a mission. I will protect my throne, I will find my son, and then I am going to finally enjoy the Alpha I have been craving since the first episode.

During a fight with my husband, he shoved me. My stomach bumped into the couch’s armrest. Just then, his childhood friend called him, sobbing. “Caleb, hurry, come to Cloudpeak Hotel and save me! My boss got me drunk, and now he’s forcing me to serve our client…” I nearly blacked out from the twisting pain in my stomach. I begged him to take me to the hospital. However, my husband said, “There’s a life at stake here! Can you not be so cruel?” He left, slamming the door behind him. I had no choice but to call for an ambulance. That night, he spent the night with his childhood friend, while I lay in the operating theater, undergoing emergency surgery. Good news, Caleb Gordon! You'd never have children again! Weren’t you glad? You deserved it!

My sister was the golden child, the pride of our family, but she had a rare blood disorder that required treatments costing thousands every month. To keep her alive, I became her personal blood donor, working nonstop to pay for her care and delivering food all day and night. But one day, she nearly died from hemorrhaging after trying to abort a pregnancy. That’s when I learned the child she was carrying belonged to my boyfriend. When I confronted him, he didn’t even flinch. Instead, he dragged me to the operating table himself. “You were born to be her blood bank. Dying for her? It’s the best thing you’ll ever do.” I was left there, bleeding out, my life slipping away with every drop. But as death closed in, something changed. The people who once hoped I’d disappear—the ones who used me, betrayed me—they all began to unravel, losing their insanity.
