Bête

"Me preguntaste más temprano dónde me estoy quedando." Me jaló de la mano hasta que estuve pegada a él. "Lo hice", dije. Sabía a lo que se refería y sabía que iba a decir que sí. No importaba que nunca hubiera tenido una aventura de una noche. Algo sobre este hombre era adictivo. Necesitaba más de su toque. "¿Te gustaría que te mostrara?" * Cuando un apuesto multimillonario se muda al pequeño pueblo de Bell City, Tennessee, la periodista de investigación Thea Donnelly se obsesiona con descubrir su misterioso pasado. Nunca imagina que la verdad la llevará a la magia, dragones y cultos asesinos. Aunque su atracción por el cambiaformas dragón Tahir Gujic es innegable, su deseo de llegar al fondo del misterio los separa. Cuando ella es secuestrada por una orden de caballeros asesinos, él arriesga todo para rescatarla. ¿Hará Thea lo mismo cuando ella sea quien tome la decisión? «La amada pareja del Dragón» es una obra de Claire Wilkins, una autora de eGlobal Creative Publishing.

Mon fils avait été enlevé par une meute de loups renégats. Deux jours plus tard, l'équipe de patrouille a retrouvé son corps. Ses membres étaient brisés, tout son corps était couvert d'ecchymoses, pas un seul endroit de sa fourrure n'était intact. Je tenais sa dépouille sans vie dans mes bras et je hurlais de douleur. Mon compagnon Damien, l'Alpha de la Meute Croc-de-Tempête, a juré que les coupables paieraient. Toutes les preuves ont pointé vers Sara, l'assistante Oméga de Damien - en réalité, sa maîtresse. En tant que Luna de la meute, j'ai révélé publiquement les résultats de l'enquête et les preuves devant tous les membres. Sous la pression de la meute, mon compagnon a été forcé d'exécuter son assistante Oméga. Un an plus tard, je suis tombée de nouveau enceinte. Mais pendant la cérémonie de mon dixième anniversaire en tant que Luna, mon compagnon m'a enfermée dans une chambre en feu pour me punir. C'est à ce moment-là que j'ai découvert la vérité : il me haïssait parce que je l'avais forcé à tuer son assistante Oméga. Il voulait ma mort, par vengeance. Dans les flammes, j'ai senti l'enfant dans mon ventre s'éteindre, et mes forces m'ont abandonnée. Après ma renaissance, je n'ai toujours pas pu changer le destin tragique de mon fils. Mais quand j'ai choisi d'abandonner mon rôle de Luna de la Meute Croc-de-Tempête, toute la meute est tombée à genoux, me suppliant de ne pas partir.

La infancia de Adrián Rivas estuvo marcada por su primer amor. Pero cuando ella murió, él me odió durante diez largos años. Al día siguiente de nuestra boda, pidió ser enviado a una misión en la frontera. Durante una década le escribí incontables cartas, intentando acercarme una y otra vez… pero su respuesta siempre era la misma: —Si de verdad te sientes culpable… entonces muérete pronto. Hasta que un día fui secuestrada. Y él, solo y sin refuerzos, irrumpió en el escondite de los criminales para salvarme, recibiendo varias balas por mí. Antes de morir, con sus últimas fuerzas, me apartó bruscamente la mano y dijo: —Lo que más me arrepiento en esta vida… es haberte tomado por esposa. Si existiera otra vida… te ruego, no vuelvas a buscarme. En el funeral, la madre de Adrián lloraba de arrepentimiento. —Hijo mío, ha sido culpa mía… yo no debí obligarte. Su padre, lleno de odio, me gritó entre lágrimas: —Mataste a Clara, y ahora también a mi hijo. ¡Eres una desgraciada! ¿Porqué no te mueres tú también? Incluso el comandante, que insistió para que nos casáramos, bajó la cabeza con remordimiento. —Fue mi error, no debí separar a dos enamorados… Le fallé al camarada Adrián. Todos lamentaban la muerte de Adrián, incluyéndome a mí. Esa misma noche, fui expulsada del ejército y quedé sin ningún rumbo. En medio de la nada, en un campo solitario, bebí veneno y morí. Pero al abrir los ojos otra vez… regresé al día antes de nuestra boda. Esta vez, decidí cumplirles el deseo a todos.

His fingers were already at the lace between my thighs when he pushed me against the marble vanity, breath hot, voice darker than sin, his arousal pressing against my throbbing core. "Open your legs for me, Mrs Valentino." He didn’t wait. He plunged into me roughly, his mouth trailing down my neck like he owned it. I hated the way my body arched for him. I hated even more that he smirked when it did. I was supposed to be terrified, not trembling for the man who forced a ring onto my finger two days after abducting me. Before Dante Valentino touched me like that... before he whispered filth and promises into my ears, I was Valentina Morrison: a quiet girl, psychology graduate, volunteer counselor blissfully unaware that my entire life was a lie. I didn’t know the truth about my parents. I didn't know my bloodline belonged to a mafia empire that their hands were filled with blood. I only knew one thing the night I witnessed a murder in a Manhattan alley and it was that I was going to die...until he showed up. Dante, the most feared Italian boss in New York. He was ruthless and calculating. He didn't save me, he claimed me. Only because I’m not just some civilian. I'm the last surviving Castellano heir, the one piece of leverage that can rewrite the entire underworld. So Dante forced a marriage to protect me. To control me. To bind me to him in pleasure and law. And somewhere between running from gunfire and running from him, I made the worst mistake possible: I let the devil touch me. I let his hands teach my body a language my mind despises but my body craves. I let him explore me.
