Charlotte Gray Books

A week after my engagement, I was delivered an unusual engagement gift. My phone chimed. I glanced down and saw a push notification from a social app. [Fell in love with a female livestreamer right before my engagement. I feel guilty toward my older girlfriend who's about to become my fiancée—how should I deal with this?] The user ID was "SimonLovesClaire." The profile picture showed a melancholy side view of a man wrapped in a gray scarf. I recognized him instantly. It was my fiancé, Simon Aldrich. That limited-edition scarf was the birthday gift I had given him last year.

Lucian Silver, the leader of the pack, is unable to avoid experiencing the sorrow of the past, especially when Ravena appears to him as a phantom from his memories. He must concede that not everything is as it seems when he is in charge and that perhaps this alluring red wolf can fit in after all when someone attempts to quiet her.

I have more family than I ever knew about, or honestly, I knew about but had my memories of them taken.

À neuf mois de grossesse, j'étais dans la phase finale de mon terme, et mon corps était lourd d'un bébé qui devait naître d'un jour à l'autre. Mais mon mari, Victor Falcon, sous-chef de la famille, m'a enfermée. Il m'a retenue dans une salle médicale souterraine stérile et m'a injecté un agent suppresseur de l'accouchement. Alors que je hurlais à l'agonie, il m'a froidement dit de le supporter. Parce que la veuve de son frère, Charlotte, devait accoucher exactement au même moment. Un serment de sang qu'il avait fait avec son défunt frère stipulait que le fils premier-né hériterait du lucratif territoire de la famille. « Cet héritage appartient à l'enfant de Charlotte. » a-t-il déclaré. « Gabriel étant parti, elle est totalement seule et démunie. Tu as tout mon amour, Élisa. J'ai juste besoin qu'elle puisse accoucher en toute sécurité. Ensuite, ce sera ton tour. » La drogue était un tourment constant et angoissant. Je l'ai supplié de m'emmener à l'hôpital. Il m'a prise à la gorge, me forçant à croiser son regard glacial. « Arrête de faire semblant ! Je sais que tu vas bien. Tu essaies juste de voler l'héritage. » « Pour devancer Charlotte, tu ne reculeras devant rien. » Mon visage est devenu cendreux, mon corps s'est convulsé et j'ai réussi à murmurer désespérément. « Le bébé arrive, je me fiche de l'héritage, je t'aime et je veux que notre enfant naisse en toute sécurité ! » Il a ricané. « Si tu étais vraiment si innocente, tu n'aurais pas forcé Charlotte à signer ce contrat, renonçant aux droits d'héritage de son enfant. » « Ne t'inquiète pas, je reviendrai te chercher quand elle aura accouché. » Il a veillé toute la nuit devant la salle d'accouchement de Charlotte. Ce n'est qu'après avoir vu le nouveau-né dans ses bras qu'il s'est souvenu de moi. Il a finalement envoyé son second, Marc, pour me libérer. Mais quand Marc a appelé, sa voix tremblait. « Patron... la madame et le bébé... ils sont partis ». A ce moment-là, Victor Falcon s'est effondré.

*Book 6* Gabriella is a no nonsense kind of woman. She loves deeply and fights for what matters to her. Her life was going along just fine, that is until she catches her boyfriend cheating on her. That should have been the worst of her issues, but soon a cheating boyfriend pales in comparison to being fated to a God, and a brooding one at that. Quickly Gabriella will be pulled into thousand year old drama and find out she is part of a prophecy that could potentially destroy the world depending on what choices she makes. How will this simple human handle carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders and a possessive God on her back? A Queen Among Gods is the sixth book in the Queen Among series.
