Clara Valac

I stretched lazily on the bed, much like a contented kitten, before opening my eyes. Hovering above me was a face that could have been sculpted by the gods—a handsome, well-defined face with sun-kissed golden eyes. My first groggy thought was that Cara had finally brought home a decent, well-groomed man for a change. But…. Why is he in my room? I abruptly shoved him away, ending the spell. "Get off your asshole!" With a scowl on my face, I got up quickly. “Was personal space not mentioned by Clara, huh?” I spoke in an irritated tone. “Clara?” He turned and casually picked up some papers from a nearby table, settling down with an annoying smile. “And who might that be, if I may ask?” He doesn’t even remember her? Asshole “Well, if you must know, Clara—” I started, but my words faltered as something shiny caught my eye. What is..? Then my memories began to flood back. —it’s a damn golden sofa. Shit. Brain Freeze. ~~~ Growing up as the oldest kid on a Chicago farm was no picnic for Mary Johnson. Her folks, good ol' Mr. and Mrs. Becky Johnson, were salt-of-the-earth types, who worked hard on their small farm not far from the gritty backstreets of Chicago. They taught Mary and her siblings the value of hard work, self-value. But as much as Mary loved her family, she dreamed big, but those dreams took a backseat when she needed to step up and help support her family. Then, out of the blue, fate threw her a curveball. A chance in the US came knocking, and Mary didn't hesitate. And then she crossed paths with the Blacks – New York’s high society, dripping with wealth and power, who offered her a deal she couldn’t refuse.

Fate twists its vines in ways we can't comprehend. For Sylvie, it brought the force of a Tyrant Alpha and the ruthless Salvalor pack. Sylvie learned to live with her handicap. Stay out of business of other wolves and they'll leave her alone. Mostly. War, however, soon reaches her doorstep. Forced to submit to Malphas, one of the last living Lycans, with a bloody streak and reputation for having the shortest fuse, Sylvie's quiet life turns upside down. Run or serve, the choice is easy. Malphas and the wolf within him, Valac, are the two names whispered in fear. Packs are falling, wolves are dying, territories are burning. The sky is red with blood, in his eyes. The thirst for it, unquenchable. He lives for the thrill of the kill, yet struggles to contain his disdain towards wolves. Rebuilding the line of Lycans, and the Kingdom of Silas to its former glory, is most important. Getting revenge is just a convenience. Imagine the surprise when he finds the last village to pillage, before crossing wolven borders, and a hidden gem within it. The Omega runt throws his senses into confused calmness, and for the first time neither he, nor Valac, feel the urge to kill. Refusing to admit, but finding it intriguing, Malphas takes Sylvie as his cup-girl. What threads will fate weave for the two? Will Sylvie survive under Malphas's command? Will he solve the puzzle behind the quiet, little runt or will his anger and cruelty bury her into the ground? Can Sylvie unravel the mystery hidden in Malphas's eyes? Enjoy the slow burning flames and the rusted blood that keeps them going.

Drei Jahre Ehe - und ich war zufrieden mit meinem Leben. Mein Mann, Felix Weber, war nicht nur attraktiv und wohlhabend, sondern auch unglaublich liebevoll, geduldig und immer ausgeglichen. In all den Jahren hatten wir nie wirklich gestritten, nie ein böses Wort miteinander gewechselt. Bis zu dem Tag, an dem ich ihn sah - den sonst so ruhigen und kontrollierten Felix. Er hatte eine Frau, offensichtlich seine große Liebe aus der Vergangenheit, an die Wand gedrängt. Mit einer Stimme, die vor Zorn und Schmerz bebte, „Du hast damals selbst entschieden, einen anderen zu heiraten! Mit welchem Recht kommst du jetzt zu mir?“, fragte er sie. Erst da begriff ich: Wenn er jemanden wirklich liebt, dann tut er das mit einer brennenden, ungezähmten Leidenschaft. Ich zog mich zurück, ließ mich scheiden und verschwand - spurlos. Bald darauf hörte ich Gerüchte, dass Sebastian den Verstand verloren haben soll. Angeblich habe er jede Ecke der Stadt durchforstet, als würde er die ganze Welt auf den Kopf stellen, nur um mich zu finden. Dieser selbstbeherrschte, disziplinierte Mann, verrückt - und das ausgerechnet wegen mir, seiner unscheinbaren Ex-Frau? Es schien absurd. Doch dann traf ich ihn wieder. Ich stand an der Seite eines anderen Mannes, als er plötzlich vor mir auftauchte. Ohne Vorwarnung packte er mein Handgelenk, seine Augen voller Verzweiflung, fast wahnsinnig. Mit einer Stimme, die kaum noch zu ihm zu gehören schien, flüsterte er: „Lena, ich habe einen Fehler gemacht. Bitte komm zurück zu mir.“ Und in diesem Moment wurde mir klar: Die Gerüchte hatten nicht übertrieben. Sebastian war wirklich außer sich.
