Book Balthazar Novels & Stories

Now, I find myself feeling put off by the tears that continue to flow down my cheeks. I'm not heartbroken. For God's sake, I had no business liking the man in the first place.

she said, a mischievous glint in her eye. As we celebrated, a thought lingered in the back of my mind—a plan already set in motion. Gabriel had long relied on his loyal investors and executives to keep his empire afloat. If he lost them, Moretti shoes would crumble finally. I sipped my champagne, letting Natasha chatter about the night’s triumph. The seeds had been planted, but I wouldn’t reveal what I’d done—not yet. Success tasted even sweeter when it was served with a side of poetic justice.

Oscar raised an eyebrow at me in hope that I would repeat myself but like a timid little girl in the presence of this billionaire, I choked on my own words. Another thing I have to think about is this party we are going to. I closed a book about my life and I threw it away. The characters in the book -Courtney Hale, Christopher St Patrick, Francis Harrington, Henrik Sinclair, Giovanni Balotelli, Sonia Balotelli and Nathan Bale- went with that book. In simple terms, I moved on. I don't want to go to this party because I will obviously run into all of them. I want to tell Wayne the whole truth of how I wound up in New York but who wants the baggage? Who wants an eighteen year old Mafia girl wh

Marcel moves closer to her slowly. “I want the same as you, the werewolves out of the witches’ lives. Alaric out of our home, Willow gone and no longer in control! They plan to get the vampires on their side and destroy the Monventla. I am the only person who knows where the book is; the spells are within it.” Marcel nods, sitting down. “What book might that be? The witches lost all of their written manuscripts centuries ago.” He looks at her waiting, Dan still stood on guard.

Eventually after a while , I hear footsteps nearing me – I do not take notice of the person who takes a seat next to me and the masculine scent that enters my nose accompanied by the delicious smell of food , I come to a conclusion that it is Xavier with a plate of food. “Here…” he brings a spoon full of the bowls content to my mouth , and at first I refuse it but eventually I had given in to it’s scent and opened my mouth. He began to feed me , and I actually enjoyed it – it was comforting , like he is there for me but did not need to r

"Oh, that's what he was talking about, wow," "Seriously Natalie?" "Excuse me twinnie, I will go get our lunch, I ordered takeout," She announced leaving Nicole by herself, her twin was impossible, Nicole thought about her chance meeting with Rafael and decided she didn't want to meet him again, she just didn't like his aura even though he was super gorgeous and smelled nice, she couldn't stay in his presence for long, she will possibly lose her mind.

He is also very hardworking, but I need more time to know him. That's when I can decide whether or not to marry him. But my mom's life is on the line. "Thanks, Yohan. I finally come to my senses." I wiped my tears away and forced myself to smile at Yohan. He tucked my hair behind my ears and whispered, "If you need me, I'll always be at the cafe." After he said that, he walked away. I need to talk to Sean. ... After walking along the busy streets to refresh my mind, I went back to Sean's condo. I saw him reading a book with his glasses on.

He plops down beside me, handing me one. “Rough night?” I ask, voice tired, eyes scanning the street beyond. “Always,” he grunts. “But at least I didn’t lose a daughter like you, huh?” I nod solemnly and take a sip. Water. Because I’m not a complete idiot. He downs half his bottle and wipes his mouth. “Word on the dirt is Balthazar’s getting ready to make a move. Full-on pack. Territory, laws, structure. Even got lieutenants now.”

Then, I answered, "To me, borrowing money to friends or other people is a debt, so there will be no difference. Although I may tie a knot for another time based on Moon Goddess' timeline, I'll stick to my principle." After that, before I really walked passing him, I permitted myself, "I need to wash myself, so please excuse me, Alpha."
