Christmas Tree V Lyrics

As Christmas approached, my fiancé Marcus Shadowhowl, the next-in-line Alpha of the Shadowhowl pack, rejected my invitation for a date and instead planned to take his assistant Sienna Nightsky to the beach on a vacation. Known as the perfect Luna-to-be, I didn’t cry or beg. I even thoughtfully helped him plan the trip. He kissed me gently and said, “Lorelei, you’re the most understanding werewolf in the world.” I smiled as I saw them off—then turned around and went to have an abortion. Why? Because in my past life, I had begged him to stay with me using the pup in me. But in the end, Sienna was brutally murdered at the beach. Outwardly, Marcus still treated me tenderly, but in his heart, he blamed me for her death. When I was about to give birth, he tricked me into going to the beach and issued a ruthless order to his subordinates. “Are we really going to dissolve the Luna’s child with silver? That’s too cruel!” “Yes. She killed Sienna. This is the punishment she deserves!” It was only then, in utter agony, that I realized Marcus had always held a grudge against me. Now that I’ve returned to the time before everything happened, I didn’t stop him from going on vacation with his assistant. Everyone laughs at my foolishness. But what they don’t know is that Marcus will eventually regret it and beg me to come back to him.

Élina pensait fuir pour survivre. Quand elle s’enfonce seule dans la forêt, fuyant les coups, la honte et une trahison brûlante, elle ne cherche ni pardon, ni miracle. Elle veut juste disparaître. Mais au détour d’un cri, d’un hurlement, elle tombe dans un autre monde. Capturée par une meute de loups-garous, battue, interrogée, réduite au silence, elle n’est plus qu’un corps meurtri... jusqu’à ce qu’il apparaisse. Kaël. L’Alpha. Le seul qui voit au-delà des cicatrices. Le seul qui murmure qu’elle est sa mate. Elle n’a rien choisi. Rien compris. Et pourtant, quelque chose en elle bat à l’unisson du sien. Dans un monde où les instincts gouvernent, où la force dicte les règles, où les liens ne se brisent pas... Élina va devoir apprendre à respirer à nouveau. À faire confiance. À exister. Même si chaque pas la rapproche d’un passé qu’elle pensait avoir enterré... et d’une vérité qui pourrait tout faire exploser. Et si sa douleur était la clef d’un pouvoir plus ancien que la meute elle-même ?

Soy Vicky Eaton, una Kindred sin vínculo. Es decir, no tengo una pareja o vínculo de sangre, el único humano del que se puede beber según la ley Kindred.He hecho todo lo posible por cumplir la norma, hasta que me di cuenta de que mi nuevo jefe huele demasiado bien como para resistirme y cumple todos los requisitos para ser mi pareja.Sin embargo, hace tiempo que hice el voto de quedarme sin pareja para toda la eternidad.**Mientras hablaba, me lamió la oreja. Mi corazón volvió a acelerarse. El aroma de su perfume de sangre, mezclado con la fragancia natural de su cuerpo, estimuló cada uno de mis nervios. Me besó el cuello. Gemí contra sus caricias mientras me quitaba la ropa por tercera vez en menos de doce horas.—Hagas lo que hagas... —le dije sin aliento—: No pares. Mis palabras le golpearon con fuerza y sus movimientos se intensificaron. De repente, se separó y giró el cuello hacia mí, revelando su gloriosa piel.Me quedé helada.¿Debía mantenerme fiel a mi pasado o dar un salto de fe y caer en el mundo del Vínculo de Sangre?

Damian, my destined partner, is the alpha that all wolf girls dream of. For him, I went alone to the North, his pack. But for three years after we signed the contract, he remained chaste, staying at least three feet away from me, refusing to mate with me. I thought he was just busy with the affairs of the wolf pack and had no time to care about me. Until I stumbled upon Damian pinning Lyra, his sister, against a rough tree trunk, his mouth savagely devouring her lips like a wild beast. "You know I long for you, Lyra!" he roared. "Why did you force that boring Selena on me?!" At last I understood. The only person he truly loved was Lyra. He hurt me again and again for Lyra, and even when we were trapped in the forest and almost swallowed by the shadow plague, he ran away with Lyra in his arms without looking back. "Whether Selena can escape or not has nothing to do with me. You are the most important person in my world!" I was heartbroken, but he wanted to complete the final mark with me because of guilt. He didn't know that I had already dripped my heart's blood on the moonstone the day I found out about his affair with Lyra. Our mate bond had been completely broken long ago.

Lila Anderson n’était qu’une jeune femme pleine de rêves et d’amour lorsqu’elle fut accusée d’un crime qu’elle n’avait pas commis. Trahie, brisée, et injustement condamnée, elle passe trois longues années derrière les barreaux. Son seul tort ? Avoir aimé Dante Whitemore, l’héritier d’un empire impitoyable, sans jamais chercher autre chose que son cœur. À sa sortie de prison, Lila est méconnaissable. Brisée mais toujours digne malgré les humiliations qu’elle endure. Ce qu’elle ignore, c’est que le destin s’apprête à la replonger dans les ténèbres qu’elle croyait avoir laissées derrière elle. Car Dante est de retour. Lorsqu’il la revoit, il ne reconnaît pas celle qu’il avait jadis tant méprisée. Sa présence l’obsède, l’énerve, le trouble. Il croit encore qu’elle l’a trahi… Mais peu à peu, chaque regard, chaque mot, chaque silence fissure ses certitudes. Ce qu’il ne sait pas encore, c’est qu’il est lui-même la proie d’un mensonge bien plus vaste, ourdi par Elena Moreau — la rivale cachée, manipulatrice élégante aux allures d’ange, qui depuis l’enfance rêve de devenir la femme de Dante. Une rivalité invisible, mais cruelle, qui aura détruit des vies pour mieux dissimuler la vérité. Entre haine, passion, vengeance et rédemption, Dante devra affronter ses fautes et faire tomber les masques. Mais Lila, elle, peut-elle encore lui faire confiance ? Peut-on reconstruire l’amour sur les cendres du mépris ? Et que fera Jason Stuart, l’ami fidèle devenu rival silencieux, lorsqu’il comprendra qu’il aime celle qu’il ne pourra jamais vraiment avoir ? Un amour détruit par la trahison. Un pardon plus dur que la prison. Une reconquête à haut prix. Et une femme qui, cette fois, ne se laissera plus briser.

Beaucoup l'ont rêvé et moi j'ai eu la chance de le vivre. Crésus a tapé à ma porte. Ensuite cupidon m'a transpercé le cœur au moment où j'en avais le plus besoin. Mais est-ce suffisant ?

But a business trip to India disrupts his carefully curated world when he meets Rose Kapoor, a fierce, green-eyed beauty who shatters his expectations. Unlike any woman he's ever known, Rose doesn't cower before his power or wealth, and she certainly doesn't bend to his will.

Desperate to make her submit, he concocts a ruthless plan, blackmailing Rose into his world. But Rose isn't like the others.
