Captain John Price

“Wendy, are you absolutely sure you want to sign this document?” The Elder’s voice rang in my ears—cold, distant. “Once your bond with Alpha John is dissolved, you’ll lose everything tied to the Blackthorn Pack.” I gripped the pen so hard my knuckles turned white. “Yes. I’m sure.” But just as the tip touched the paper— BANG! The door was kicked open with a violent crash. Alpha John stormed in, eyes bloodshot, and wrapped his hand around my throat. “You dare?!” Blood slipped from the corner of my lips… but I laughed. Because I knew—he would never discover the truth. That his dear uncle, Alpha Vincent, was hiding in my closet at this very moment. And the fresh bite mark on my lower belly… still burned from last night. As if fate was mocking me, my sweet little sister Penny sent a message right then: “Sis, wanna know a secret? That miscarriage you had? John planned it. He made it happen.” Then the TV flickered to life with a breaking live broadcast— There she was, Penny, gently stroking her swollen belly as she smiled into the camera. “John and I are expecting our baby next month,” she announced proudly to the entire Pack. And Alpha John—my “husband”—stood beside her, lovingly kissing her forehead. Like I never existed. Like I wasn’t the Luna written in law. “Miranda,” my wolf snarled in my head, “Rip those traitors apart—now!” But I didn’t. I wiped the blood from my mouth, and dialed the number I hadn’t called in five long years. “Vincent,” I said calmly, “Come get me.”

Sa mundo ng mga trillionaire, hindi sapat ang pera upang makuha ang lahat—ngunit para kay Fortuna Han, isang pastry chef na lumaki sa simpleng buhay, kaya niyang gawin ang lahat, kahit pa ito’y maging kasalanan, basta’t mapasakanya ang lalaking matagal na niyang minamahal. Si John Tan, isang brilliant, CEO ng isang IT company, cold-hearted computer engineer at tagapagmana ng pinakamalaking business empire sa bansa, ay may isang pangakong kailangang tuparin—ang mapangasawa si Senyora Abedida, ang tanging babaeng tinatangi niya simula high school. Ang mundo nila ay naaayon sa isa’t isa, at walang puwang para sa isang babaeng tulad ni Fortuna. Ngunit hindi iyon naging hadlang kay Fortuna. Sa isang mapanganib na laro ng pag-aakit, pagsisinungaling, at panlilinlang, ginawa niya ang lahat upang maagaw si John mula kay Senyora. At nang tuluyan niyang nakamit ang lalaking matagal na niyang inibig, isang hindi inaasahang rebelasyon ang bumulaga sa kanya—matagal na palang nakatakda ang kasal nila ni John dahil sa isang arranged marriage na pinlano ng kanilang mga pamilya noon pa man. Dahil sa galit at panlilinlang, si John ay napilitang pakasalan si Fortuna sa ilalim ng isang kontrata—dalawang taon lamang silang magiging mag-asawa, at pagkatapos noon, tuluyan na siyang mawawala sa buhay nito. Para kay John, ito ay isang laro ng kapangyarihan. Para kay Fortuna, ito ang katuparan ng kanyang pangarap. Ngunit paano kung sa gitna ng kasunduang ito, may isang gabi ng kapusukan ang tuluyang magtatali sa kanila magpakailanman? Paano kung ang babaeng itinuring niyang mang-aagaw ay siyang magbibigay sa kanya ng bagay na hindi niya kailanman inakala—isang anak? At paano kung sa paglipas ng panahon, ang malamig na poot at galit ni John ay unti-unting mapalitan ng isang damdaming pilit niyang nilalabanan? Si Senyora Abedida, na hindi kailanman papayag na maagaw si John nang ganoon lang.

Military training had barely started when my boyfriend, Marcus Sterling, succumbed to temptation with the beautiful drill sergeant, Captain Jessica Monroe. Within a week of the new semester, he and the gorgeous Captain Monroe crossed a line. On a 104-degree day, I was punished with 300 push-ups for being two minutes late. Meanwhile, Marcus pinned Captain Monroe down in front of everyone while they cheered him on. When she injured my stomach, which already had an old stab wound, he shielded her eyes and whispered with dark intimacy, "Don't lose focus. She's fine."

I want to study abroad."
