Three years of marriage is such a short period of time for love, as people say. But for Seah Alxandra Garcia, three years of marriage with Mikhail De Luca was a curse. Matapos maka-graduate ni Seah sa kursong architecture ay agad siyang ikinasal kay Mikhail, isa namang italianong engineer. Malaking pagkabigo para kay Seah ang magpakasal agad, ngunit wala rin siyang nagawa dahil para ito sa ikabubuti ng kaniyang pamilya. Tatlo lang ang hinihiling ni Mikhail sa kaniyang bagong asawa para sa loob ng tatlong taon. Iyon ay ang manirahan sa Italya, matulungan siyang mapalago ang negosyo, at pagsilbihan ito — tatlong hiling sa loob ng tatlong taon para lang sa malaking pangangailangan ng pamilya ni Seah. Wala na kay Mikhail kung maisipan siyang iwan ni Seah matapos ang tatlong taong pagsasama nila, ngunit sa kabila ng lahat ay sadyang mapaglaro ang tadhana. Paano na lang kung nasanay na si Mikhail na mamuhay kasama ang asawa niya? Pero paano na lang kung gusto na niyang makapiling si Seah sa bawat araw na gigising siya?

Nang makilala ni Seah ang magkapatid na sina Ezekiel at Megan, para bang nabahiran ng gulo ang relasyon nila ni Mikhail. That with every bit of step she makes, their relationship fades.

Pagi itu, cahaya matahari menyelinap malu-malu melalui celah gorden kamar Maya. Gadis berusia dua puluh enam tahun itu masih bergelung di balik selimut tebalnya, mengabaikan bunyi alarm yang sudah berteriak tiga kali sejak pukul enam pagi. Maya bukan pemalas, ia hanya lelah setelah lembur menyelesaikan laporan audit perusahaan konstruksi tempatnya bekerja hingga pukul dua dini hari. Namun, ada satu bunyi yang akhirnya berhasil menarik kesadarannya sepenuhnya: bunyi denting notifikasi ponsel yang khas. ​Maya meraba nakas, menemukan benda pipih itu, dan menyipitkan mata melihat layarnya yang terang. Sebuah notifikasi dari aplikasi biru tua—Facebook. ​"Seorang pria bernama Arlan Dirgantara mengirimkan Anda permintaan pertemanan." ​Maya berkerut dahi. Nama itu sama sekali tidak terasa akrab. Ia duduk bersandar pada kepala ranjang, membiarkan rambut panjangnya yang berantakan jatuh ke bahu. Dengan ibu jari, ia mengetuk profil pria tersebut. Foto profilnya memperlihatkan seorang pria yang berdiri di depan sebuah ekskavator besar berwarna kuning mengkilap, mengenakan rompi proyek dan helm keselamatan. Wajahnya tidak terlihat sepenuhnya karena terhalang kacamata hitam, tapi ada aura ketegasan yang terpancar dari postur tubuhnya. ​"Siapa ini? Perasaan aku nggak punya teman kontraktor,"

Montréal, 1944. Dans la maison des Joyal, quelqu'un veut hériter. Jeannine Joyal consulte en secret un aliéniste pour sa sœur Emma — riche paralytique convaincue que sa famille veut la tuer. Le médecin la rassure. Il viendra l'examiner le lendemain. Il n'en aura pas le temps. Cette nuit-là, une surdose de morphine faillit emporter Emma. Un poignard finit le travail. Les suspects sont nombreux — le frère coureur, le père sénile, la sœur dévouée — mais le détective Albert Brien a les yeux fixés sur un seul homme : Irénée Paiement, le fiancé admirable. Celui en qui Emma avait confiance. Celui que tout le monde trouvait irréprochable. Trop irréprochable. Une vieille photo, une loupe, et des empreintes digitales vieilles de dix ans suffiront à Brien pour démolir l'imposture — et révéler derrière le masque du saint un assassin de sang-froid qui porte deux visages depuis une décennie. MORPHINE ET POIGNARD — un polar noir signé YZAK, dans la grande tradition du roman criminel canadien-français.

As I gazed into his eyes, I couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity, as if I had known him for years. "There's something about you," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "Something that draws me to you." He smiled, revealing a set of perfect teeth. "I feel it too," he said, his voice low and melodic. "It's like we were meant to meet." I couldn't deny the electricity that coursed through me as he spoke, and I found myself leaning closer to him, wanting to feel his warmth. "Who are you?" I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me. He chuckled softly, his eyes crinkling with amusement. "I'm just a guy," he said. "But I've been told that I have a certain charm." I couldn't help but laugh at his modesty, knowing full well that he was more than just a guy. He had an aura about him, a sense of confidence and self-assurance that was both intimidating and alluring. As we continued to talk, I found myself opening up to him, sharing things that I had never told anyone before. It was like he was a confidant, someone that I could trust with my deepest secrets. And as we parted ways, I knew that I had met someone special. He was more than just a guy, he was a kindred spirit, a soulmate that I had been searching for all my life.

“What are you doing?” “What do you think?” I asked, pulling her ass back into my crotch. I let her feel my throbbing erection through her nightie. “You see what you've done to me. I'm so hard for you. I need to be in you. Fuck you.” “Blake,” she whimpered. I slid her off my lap and onto the bed. She laid down on it, staring up at me with these trembling eyes. I shifted around, pushing her legs apart. Her nightie slid up it. I licked my lips, tasting her spicy passion. “I'm not going to hurt you, Fiona,” I said, my hands pushing up the lacy hem of her nightgown. “I won't.” “Blake.” She bit her lip. “It's just... I... I...” -------------------------------- Fiona has moved multiple times after her mother's passing due to her father's suffering of his loss.
