Codename Anastasia Ch 40

Cette nuit-là, pendant mon service, j'avais accepté à contrecœur la demande suspecte de Maïté Toutain, ma sœur adoptive : changer la perfusion d'un petit patient. Comment aurais-je pu deviner que j'assisterais, impuissante, au décès d'un garçon de sept ans, foudroyé par une réaction allergique ? Ses proches, éperdus de rage, ont fait irruption dans le poste de soins et m'ont rouée de coups : « C'est toi qui as administré le mauvais liquide ! Tu as tué mon enfant ! » Je n'avais perfusé que du glucose… Comment cette tragédie était-elle possible ? Alors que ma conscience vacillait, quelqu'un avait appelé la police. J'espérais une délivrance, mais c'était mon propre frère, Gilbert Toutain, policier, qui m'a maintenue au sol. Pire, mon ami d'enfance, André Corne, médecin légiste, m'a accusée sur la base d'un rapport d'autopsie. Impossible de me justifier. Sous les coups, j'ai succombé. À mon dernier souffle, une question me hantait : pourquoi Gilbert et André, qui m'avaient toujours chérie, m'avaient-ils trahie ? Mais quand j'ai rouvert les yeux… j'étais de retour, cette même nuit...

Sa isang marangyang party kung saan alak ang hari at kasiyahan ang batas, nagtagpo sina Megan Anastasia Davis at Primo Rafael Giovanni—isang simpleng babae at isang bilyonaryong sanay sa luho. Sa kalasingan at kapusukan, nadala sila ng laro ng tadhana—isang “pekeng” kasal na tinawanan lang nila noon. Pero paggising nila kinaumagahan, isang legal at totoong marriage certificate ang bumungad sa kanila. Kasado. Pirmado. Walang atrasan. Gulat. Panic. Hindi makapaniwala si Megan. Paano siya napasok sa isang kasal na hindi niya ginusto? Ngunit hindi doon nagtatapos ang gulo. Habang pilit niyang hinahanap ang paraan para makawala, isang mas malalim na sikreto ang kanyang nadiskubre—si Primo ay engaged na pala sa iba! Isang arranged marriage na matagal nang planado, pero hindi niya kailanman ginusto. Ngayon, may isang babaeng lumalaban para sa lugar niya bilang legal na asawa. May isang pamilyang nagdidikta ng kapalaran ni Primo. At may isang pusong unti-unting nahuhulog, kahit na pilit lumalaban. Tatakas ba si Megan mula sa isang pagkakamaling naging totoo? O haharapin niya ang laban para sa lalaking hindi niya inaasahang mamahalin? Samantala, si Primo—mananatili ba siya sa buhay na pinili para sa kanya? O pipiliin niya ang babaeng aksidenteng dumating pero hindi na niya kayang pakawalan?

Era, une jeune étudiante discrète, partage ses journées entre les cours à l’université et son travail dans le petit café familial, un lieu chaleureux qu’elle chérit plus que tout. Ce café, c’est l’héritage vivant de sa mère disparue, le seul endroit où elle se sent encore connectée à elle. Mais tout bascule le jour où son père lui annonce, à sa grande stupeur, qu’il souhaite vendre l’établissement. Face à cette décision brutale, Era voit s’effondrer le fragile équilibre qu’elle s’était construit. Elle tente de le convaincre, en vain… jusqu’à ce qu’une étrange proposition surgisse : épouser Angel de La Touré, un homme mystérieux issu d’une famille influente, en échange de la sauvegarde du café. Angel est aussi énigmatique que déroutant. Froid, charismatique, imprévisible… Leur union arrangée n’a rien d’un conte de fées. Mais à travers les conflits, les silences, et les non-dits, Era découvre en Angel bien plus qu’un pacte financier. Et si derrière cette alliance forcée se cachait une vérité bouleversante ? Et si ce mariage était le point de départ d’une rédemption mutuelle ?

No momento do terremoto, meu marido, capitão da equipe de resgate, me deixou para trás e correu para salvar a mulher que amava, Luna Soares. Eu não o impedi. Apenas deixei que ele fosse. Tudo porque, na minha vida passada, diante da mesma escolha, ele me resgatou primeiro, eu, grávida de oito meses. E Luna, por causa do atraso no socorro, foi soterrada nos escombros durante uma réplica e morreu asfixiada. Mais tarde, no dia em que fui dar à luz, ele me levou até o túmulo dela. Assistiu friamente enquanto eu desabava no chão de tanta dor, implorando ajuda. — Talita, está doendo? A dor que a Luna sentiu debaixo dos escombros foi mil vezes pior! Olhei, incrédula, para o homem enlouquecido à minha frente. — No dia do terremoto você estava numa zona segura! Se não tivesse usado a gravidez como chantagem, Luna teria tido a chance de ser salva! — Todo o sofrimento da Luna… eu quero que você sinta com seu próprio corpo! Ele me forçou a ajoelhar e bater a cabeça diante da foto da Luna, enquanto o sangue escorria por entre minhas pernas. Acabei morrendo de hemorragia durante o parto. Quando abri os olhos novamente, era o mesmo dia do terremoto. Desta vez, nem eu nem meu filho vamos esperar por ele.

Deux mois après ma mort, mes parents, dans leur indifférence habituelle, se sont enfin souvenus que j’avais disparu quelque part au retour d’un voyage. Mon père, avec son éternelle impatience, a froncé les sourcils : « Je ne lui ai pas seulement demandé de revenir à pied, qu’est-ce qu’elle a à faire une scène comme ça ? » Mon frère, toujours aussi détaché et cynique, m’a envoyé un message sur son téléphone, un émoji suffisant accompagné d’un texte froid et sans âme : « Tu ferais bien de rester morte là-bas, sinon la fortune de ma grand-mère sera la mienne, et celle de Léa. » Je n’ai pas répondu. Qu’aurais-je pu dire de toute façon ? Ma mère, elle, a grimacé et a lâché d’un ton dur : « Dis-lui que si elle arrive à temps pour la fête d’anniversaire de sa grand-mère, je ne reviendrai pas sur le fait qu’elle a délibérément poussé Léa dans l’eau ! » Ils n’ont jamais cru que je n’étais pas sortie de ce sous-bois. Alors, après un temps, ils ont commencé à y creuser. Et c’est ainsi qu’ils ont fini par retrouver mes os, éparpillés au fond des bois...

“I promise you my dear mate, now that we've found you. We'll make sure you never leave our sight till you start to beg the Moon goddess you never met us.” He growled into my ears, his huge hands wrapping around my neck, while his brother nibbled and left bite marks on my skin, expecting me to shiver, from the heat building up between my legs. Instead, I let out a scoff, “Get your filthy hands off me, or I'll connect my elbows to your jaws like last time.” — Anastasia grew up knowing her family wasn't squeaky clean even after her mother remarried. Being on the legal side of the mafia business, they were totally unaware that their daughter had joined a secret organisation in charge of monitoring the syndicates. However, after a successful mission where she faces the Vasilev brothers and barely escapes with her life, she comes to discover the marriage contract she had agreed to was tied to a family that sat at the top of the mafia world. She walks into their world anxious but glad, knowing she’s there to give her parents peace. What she didn’t expect were the two men doubled as the Lycans brothers after her life. Despite this, she remains bold, oblivious of her connection to the brothers, their enemy and the werewolf world. How would a feisty human and two unshakable dangerous brothers ever live as couples?

"You really should run away from me, Aunty," he kissed her cheek- so soft, he melted. "But I'll find you. No matter where you go, even death can't hide you from me," he mumbled one of his most sacred vows into her cheek. His words resonated deep in her consciousness. If he said that to her ears everyday, she would wake up one day feeling like she belonged to him. Squeezing her hands, she cursed the obvious blush on her face and cursed herself too for being sick in the head. How could something so scary make her heart beat so fast? *** Anastasia Robie has been accused of killing her Alpha. Put behind bars by her Pack, she faces trial at the hands of the new Alpha who turns out to be her mate. One rejection later after nights of passionate sex and his wife is asking for her head. She manages to escape only to be chased by the top assassins in the world. As fate would have it, Leroy Adams has found his mate and no hands must touch her. He must have her to himself but first, give her the revenge she seeks. Her immunity is assured when he's the Boss of the same association sent to kill her. A dangerous game of hide and seek, a broken beta scarred to love again and a sweet Lycan who would stop the world for his mate. What could possibly go wrong? or who... would dare touch his pride and Joy?

“ It was not Love but a game! ” ANASTASIA ADAMS, used to live her life alone, away from the filthy business of her Mafia Father; WILLIAM ADAMS. When one day he called her back home, as an unfamiliar enemy has risen to wreck them. Not conscious of the truth of Twisted Mafia world, she fell in love with the wrong person. The man who walked down the path of vengeance, BEAST. He was Vengeful, Cold, Ruthless and the worst Mafia around. His heart was void of any variety of emotions, which turned him into a monster. What will happen when he will kidnap her and show her, his real face? What will happen when she finds out, that he was the danger, she was supposed to be conscious of? What will happen when she becomes his favourite prey? ~He leaned down, till their noses touched and whispered, “Did you think it was love?” He laughed looking away and licked his lips up, while his gaze travelled from her eyes, that had been glaring at him hatefully, to her lips, that looked as delicious and eye-catching as ever. “No, Angel!” He leaned closer and she ought to feel his hot breath hitting her face. She clenched her eyes closed and thrashed again, to get out of the chains keeping her down, which proved to be of no use. He leaned nearer and their lips slightly touched, sending the acquainted tingles down her spine. His gaze was fixed at her plump lips when he whispered, “It is Just a Game!”

Pendant la journée familiale à la maternelle, mon mari, Guillaume Simon a refusé d’y aller sous prétexte d’une urgence au travail et a demandé à ma fille et à moi de ne pas y aller. Ma fille, Lilas, était très déçue, ça m’a fait de la peine et j’ai décidé d’y participer avec ma fille. Dès que nous sommes arrivées, j’ai vu que mon mari tenait un petit garçon dans ses bras et tenait la main de sa meilleure amie d'enfance, Sabrina Martin. Tous les trois, parlant et riant, étaient heureux, comme une famille. Quand Guillaume nous a vues, ma fille et moi, il a légèrement froncé les sourcils avant de lâcher la main de Sabrina. « Lola, ne te méprends pas, Sabrina élève seule son enfant, ce n’est pas facile pour elle. Aujourd’hui, c’est l’anniversaire de cinq ans de son enfant, elle voulait juste que son fils ressente l'amour d'un père. » Je lui ai jeté un coup d'œil avec un sourire énigmatique, puis je me suis accroupie et j'ai pris la main de ma fille : « Chérie, dis bonjour à l’oncle. »
