Bel Ami

Since I was a kid, my parents drilled it in—you're gonna be a Corleone girl, Giovanni Corleone's property. "This is just an alliance. Don't expect anything more." That's what he said on our wedding night. So I played the part—quiet, polished, dutiful. Then year three hit, and suddenly Giovanni couldn't keep his hands off me. Every night, something new. I thought maybe—finally—he felt the same way I had all along. Then I caught him kissing his stepmom. Funny. Just the night before, he told me kissing me made him sick. "I've been practicing with her—for your sake." So yeah. All that heat? Just rehearsal for her. So I ran. Took back my life—and our unborn daughter. The Don lost his mind looking for me. Begged me to come back—with the kid. But I would not stop for him anymore. I turned and walked straight toward the stage that was always mine.

Kaya mo bang tiisin ang araw-araw na kasama ang lalaking pinaka-kinaiinisan mo? Yung tipong pagpasok mo pa lang sa opisina, madilim na mukha niya agad ang bubungad sa’yo? Yannie Sanchez, isang dedicated na secretary, ay labis na naiinis sa boss niyang si Xanthy Torres—ang seryoso, istrikto, at laging galit na CEO ng isang malaking kumpanya sa Asia. Para sa kanya, ito ang epitome ng "toxic boss" na palaging sumisira sa araw niya. Pero paano kung may dahilan pala sa likod ng kanyang ugali? Isang lihim ang matutuklasan ni Yannie—isang sikreto na magpapabago sa tingin niya kay Xanthy. Mula sa inis, unti-unti siyang nakaramdam ng awa at kagustuhang protektahan ito. Ngunit sa isang hindi inaasahang pangyayari, kinailangan niyang lumayo—hindi alam ni Xanthy na nagdadala siya ng kanilang anak. Pagkalipas ng limang taon, muling nagkrus ang kanilang mga landas. Sa pagkakataong ito, pipiliin pa rin ba niyang protektahan ito? O oras na para harapin ang nakaraan at isama siya sa hinaharap na para sa kanilang dalawa?

“Miss Megan Gomez,” he grins. “What a beautiful name for a gold digger and social climb—.” He couldn’t continue his words when my palm met his cheeks. Hell… Who am I to do this to him? "I did this to save my siblings from debt and my father’s hospital bill, I have no interest for a personal reason. And the deal with your tricky old man is too simple for me not to grab the opportunity." He grins even more. “I see. Prove it then by following my rules. But each time you break my rules, I’ll claim a part of your body as mine.” “That’s not part of your old man's deal with me, I just need to marry you and live for two months!” “Heh. Are you afraid?” Megan Gomez was tricked by the old man to marry the heir of the largest mafia syndicate for a sudden financial need. "Live with my son for two months. If you don’t fall in love with him, I’ll cancel your debt and the marriage.” She agreed. She will be going to live with handsome, hot, and domineering Damian Quinn for the next eight weeks, without falling for his charm in order to break the contract. Or else, she is going to bear his child. However, not only can his physical charm lure Megan to fall for him, but there are rules to living with the devilish CEO. And as Megan breaks them, she learns pleasure that she never knew existed. But do the two have a future together when Damian is in love with someone else and Megan is confused about her real feelings toward him? If it is lust, she didn’t lose the game, but if it is love, she failed herself.

I plan a family trip at my mother Lucia Sweeney's request. While avoiding the danger zones, my sister Linda Harper and I are ambushed by rogues. To protect her, I throw myself in the path of their claws and get driven into a silver mine. As I fall, my back is slashed open to the bone, and shards of silver embed deep into my right leg. The searing silver poison spreads quickly, burning through me and my wolf. My wolf is whimpering—she's close to death. However, as the pack's chief healer, Mom gathers all the healers around Linda to give her a full check-up over a few minor scrapes. I sob and beg her to save me first. "Mom, the poison has almost reached my heart. I can't hold on anymore." She turns around impatiently and yells, "Are you seriously still fighting with Linda now? Do you have any idea how close she came to getting clawed in the face by a silver claw? Our pack doesn't have a wolf as heartless as you!" And in that moment, I hear my wolf's final whimper, saying goodbye. I finally fall asleep in the cold wind, never waking up again.
