Brent Weeks

Lira Valencia Vale perceived her life to be lost after Cauis, her mate, rejected her coldly due to her low status at the bottom of the hierarchy and she was thrown into the Blackmoor forest. A place where the discarded and forgotten are exiled and left for dead and she froze for weeks while pleading for the goddess to take her life. But a strange phenomenal occured and she found that the dried up area where she was thrown in had somehow flourished during the week she had laid there and they all branched towards her to shield her from the harsh glare of the sun. And a pup chasing it's own tail glowed above her weak body, illuminated by the small streaks of sunlight filtering in through the gaps in the trees. As she tries to umearth what this could mean, a wolf approached her and offered a deal that would change her life, a deal that would change the land but at what price and would she take this deal? But again, what even is this deal that carried so much power behind it and who is this Wolf?

A few weeks before our wedding, Rodney Luther's stepmother, Jessica Flaine, posts a photo on her social media. In the photo, she's wearing the wedding dress I picked out, holding a bouquet of red roses, and shyly leaning toward Rodney, asking for a kiss. The caption reads—"Dreams fulfilled." I don't call Rodney in tears or throw a fit like I used to. I simply like the post and leave a comment. "Screenshot sent to Rodney's father." Not long after, Jessica deletes the post, and Rodney's phone call follows immediately. "Ivana, you're being so petty! The rest of my days belong to you. It's only today that I'm fulfilling a small dream of Jessica's. Hurry up and explain things to my dad! "Come on, be good. I've got a gift for you." A scoff escapes me. "Rodney, do you hear me clearly? Go explain it to your father yourself!"

What about Russell? Would he choose her?

Briana stared at the floor, avoiding her father's penetrating gaze. "Who is the guy that got you pregnant? Answer me!" George asked his daughter grimly. "You never introduced your boyfriend to us, daughter," Rosita, her stepmother, chimed in. Briana dared not look in Jack's direction, fearing that her stepmother's observant eyes might connect the dots. She can't tell them that the guy who got her pregnant was none other than her stepbrother, Jack. "Um, I have a one-night stand with his good-looking guy, whom I met at the party last month. I forgot to take anti pregnancy pills, that's why I got pregnant with his child." Briana told them the lie that she had practiced two weeks ago. George sighed deeply and said, "Alright, can you bring this guy to me? I would like to meet him." Briana blanched, the color draining out of her face.
