Blaming Myself

I am enjoy swimming, I don't know how long Marco has been gone. I didn't realize that I had reached the bottom of the waterfall because of the hot weather and the feeling of the cold water on the body feels really good that I even thought if I sat at the bottom of the waterfall to let the water pour over my almost naked body. I've only been there for a minute when I felt my brassiere come off my chest! It's because there's no lace and the brassiere I am wearing is in tube style. I was shocked by what happened and confused what to do first, how to cover my naked breasts. Should I jump off the water again to get my brassiere before the water washes it away, or should I stay here in the falls to get help from the water to cover my naked body. I looked around first to find Marco for help but he wasn't there! He is nowhere to be found! Shit! I immediately went down to chase after my brassiere when it was being swept away by the water. Now I am not sure if Marco not being here is a good or a bad news, but as I think of it realized that I would really faint if he sees me naked right now! Good thing I know how to swim so I got my brassiere at the right time. I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Great! Just in time!" I said to myself while holding my brassiere. Of course, my breasts are exposed, well I'm the only person here so it's okay anyway. "Wow, nice breasts. Round and big!" It was as if my soul left my body when I heard an unfamiliar voice from somewhere.

He walks over to meet me caressing my face and holds my gaze. "I vow to wipe every single Mendova that includes you.

So this is it'. I thought to myself. A thick scent of blood consumed my senses. A dull thud im my chest that was nearing its final beat. I look around at the mess I got myself into this time. Knowing it to be my last. Why wasn't I more appreciative of the life I was given. Its not like my life was hard or demeaning. I just didn't like the fact my destiny was pre determined before I was even born. And there it was a pair of sapphire eyes staring at me with hatred, deep burning hatred that you could feel in the depths of your gut, but something new was hidden behind the hatred was that remorse. Well for you to understand, I better start from the beginning. My name is Venus Lee DeLorentez, Venus for short. My mum named me after the goddess of love, sex, beauty and fertility. I know not the name i would have chosen for myself but she was a very spiritual lady, not only believing in our moon goddess who is the creator of all of our species and we cherish her as a God, who is in control of who we are destined to be mated to, our shifting into our wolve counterparts she is a patron a becon if you will to all the female werewolves especially our Lunas. My mum was into all mythological Gods and goddesses. Always telling me they all have a role in this world.

My sister stole my husband, caused the death of my son, and took my place as a loving wife. But I won't always be the weak, pathetic, abandoned Eleanor they knew. I will rise from the ashes, build myself up, and come back as their worst nightmare. What I experienced, I will give back threefold. Starting from redeeming my image, taking my husband back, and putting my sister in her place.

The Draghi Brothers Feared, Revered. Monsters. Those were the words papa had always used to describe them. Worthless, useless, good for nothing-those had been reserved for me. After my little stunt at 16, my papa had made sure I was under lock and key. He knew how to manipulate me, spin his lies and I had no say in whatever he did. When he informed me about my marriage to the second son of the Donovan Family, I knew I had no choice. After all, he was my father. Most girls in our family including my sisters had already been married. I stood at the aisle, looking into the eyes of my husband to be, my mind detached. Just before I could say I do, brain matter splattered on my face, his empty eyes staring at me. The culprits— The brothers I had heard so much about. The brothers that marked me when I was 16. In the heat of the struggle, I found myself tied and captured by them—a price for my family's survival. I knew my father would come save me. Yet, I couldn't help but surrender to the sin they showed me daily. I have a choice to make. A captured bride or a willing slave.

My screams in desperation were loud in my head, my voice wasn't enough when the choice was taken from me. All I ever wanted and hoped for was destroyed by someone else's hand. Finding myself on the run, pregnant with the alpha's child, I had only one goal in my mind, escaping his ruthless treatment and hoping to start over. Being an omega no one cared about my life, I was used only to serve their purpose, no matter what I wanted or to what cost and I found out just how little they cared about me. Running for my life and my unborn child's, I find myself caught up in the biggest lie of my life, one that turns my life upside down. When the ruthless Alpa finds out the truth, will he ever stop hunting to find me, no matter what's at stake when all I want is to be free? Or does he come to take what's his? This book is part of the Second Chance series but can be read as a standalone.

I am a Catalyst. The Spark, the lore calls me. The problem with being a Spark was two-fold. Monsters were drawn to me. And I'd known so many of them that I found myself unable to be intrigued by any normal, human male. I was drawn to those dangerous breeds now, like a moth to flame, how much could I really resist their primal aggression? You'd think that with my time as a Spark, I'd have learned how to recognize each creature. But there were so many, I didn't know where to begin. Every male creature lusted for me, especially the monsters. And I for them. The trick I faced was in trying not to attract every unholy thing I came across. And when I did, in identifying which just wanted to possess me and which might actually kill me. I was clearly failing. On both accounts.

I never thought I'd fall for a CEO, but it all started with a mistake. A one-night stand that turned into something more. I didn't expect to see him again, but life had other plans. As we spent more time together, I found myself drawn to him in ways I never imagined. But we couldn't be more different with his high-powered job and my more humble background. Our relationship was filled with challenges, and my entire life changed as a result of that mistake. I had to confront my past and my fears to make things work. As our love grew more profound, I realized that one-night stands that turn into relationships are more common than we think. But would our love be enough to overcome the obstacles that stood in our way? Or would our differences prove too significant to overcome?
