Comfort Zone

Ma sœur aînée, qui avait toujours détesté les études, a soudain déclaré vouloir passer l'examen d'entrée à l'université. Elle est même allée jusqu'à demander à nos parents de me marier avec le fils d'un haut gradé, afin d'obtenir l'argent pour financer sa scolarité. À ce moment-là, j'ai compris qu'elle aussi s'était réincarnée. Dans ma vie précédente, elle avait toujours pensé que les études ne servaient à rien. À peine diplômée du lycée, elle s'est mariée avec le fils d'un chef militaire venu avec le don généreux. Mais plus tard, lorsque Cédric Blanc a été muté dans une région reculée, elle a trouvé l'environnement trop rude et a refusé de le suivre. De mon côté, je travaillais pour financer mes études, j'ai obtenu mon diplôme et j'ai décroché un emploi stable dans la fonction publique : je suis devenue une véritable citadine au sens plein du terme. Pendant ce temps, ma sœur, installée dans la zone militaire, profitait de l'autorité de son beau-père pour toucher des pots-de-vin. Cette conduite a entraîné une enquête des supérieurs, qui a fait tomber son beau-père de son poste. Elle a finalement été chassée par sa belle-mère. Divorcée, elle a ensuite été dupée et entraînée à Paris pour spéculer en bourse. Quand le marché s'est effondré, elle a perdu non seulement tout, mais aussi les économies de retraite de nos parents. À bout de ressources, elle s'est accrochée à moi. Un jour, armée d'un couteau, elle m'a contrainte à lui remettre toutes mes économies et ma maison pour « relancer sa vie ». Dans la lutte, elle m'a poignardée douze fois. Je suis morte, vidée de mon sang. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, ma sœur exigeait de nos parents qu'ils me marient à Cédric. Cette fois-ci, j'ai accepté avec joie — et j'ai abandonné mes études sur-le-champ.

“My eyes flashed open as the chilly air passed through my whole body but it wasn't the cold that woke me up. Grayham was lying next to me and his warm body caressed mine when he turned to me, his eyes shut. His warm breath flushed all over my face. I shut my eyes and imagined the comfort his body would bring to me. Then his legs curled up around mine and an electric shock shot up to my brain. The bulge in my trousers doubled in size. Through the dark, I led my hand into my trousers and when I clasped my dick, it was erect, swollen, and heavy. What if he was touching me? What if my cock was buried into his mouth or what if his hands were the ones doing the stroking? Fuck! I stroked harder as I imagined myself shoving my huge dick down his throat. I spewed on the floor and turned to the bed face down while panting heavily. Then, the warning bells in my head rang! Did I just cum while thinking about my mortal enemy?” *** Miles Kaden lives quietly, fiercely protective of the old building his father once tended. He’s stubborn, grounded, and bound to a place full of history—and secrets. Grayham Wilson is sharp, cold, and disgustingly rich. He builds empires by tearing others down. And now he wants that old building. They were never meant to meet. But one impulsive act changes everything. They wake up in each other’s bodies. What starts as a battle of wills quickly turns into something far more tangled. Because the longer they live each other’s lives, the more blurred the lines become. Two men. One curse. A hundred days to survive it—or risk losing not just their lives, but themselves.

Cathryn, pregnant and hiding from her pack's attackers, was forced to flee after her husband, Alpha Orion, was killed. She lived in hiding for months, and she suddenly went into labor before she was ready. Desperate to protect her baby, she crawled to the road and flagged down a vehicle driven by Nurse Laura. Laura, who had been struggling with infertility and contemplating suicide, helped Cathryn deliver twins. Unbeknownst to Cathryn, Laura took one of the babies, Tristan, and raised him as her own. Eighteen years later, Tristan began experiencing strange transformations during a full moon. Laura revealed the truth about his past and his twin sister, Rosalind. Rosalind, who had been prepared for her own transformation, discovered Tristan and tried to comfort him. As Tristan navigated his new identity, he met Athena, a slave who had been rejected by her mate. Tristan had a prophecy to fulfill and Athena must break her curse and get  revenge for her pack.  Tristan and Athena eventually mated, and with the help of Rosalind and her mate, Lucine, they worked to overthrow the corrupt Alpha Jasper. Athena's powers grew, and she became a key player in their fight for justice. After a series of battles, they finally overcame Jasper, who revealed Athena's true identity as the daughter of the Lycan king of Celestial Moon pack. Tristan and Athena were married, and Tristan was enthroned as the new Lycan king. During the wedding, Cathryn was reunited with members of her old pack, who asked Tristan to be their Alpha. However, Tristan had already accepted his role as Lycan king. Instead, Lucine and Rosalind were chosen to lead the pack. In the end, the stolen Alpha had become the Lycan king, and justice had been served. The story concludes with a happy ending.

But it seems the kidnapper don't want any ransom. Find out Vanessa will cope, after being plucked out of her comfort zone. And now that she doesn't have the resources to follow her carefully planned and life, she does something entirely different, like falling for her abductor. --SNIPPET-- I moved away from him, minimizing the contact between us. I was afraid when he moved even closer to me now. I hated when my personal boundary was not respected. "No... "The words were out when I realized what he was trying to do. I put out my hands to stop him, he grabbed my hands and lifted it high above my head and pinned it to the wall. He pushed me backwards till I was pinned against the wall and trapped against his body. I knew about sex, but I didn't think I would ever engage in it. I found it too disgusting. "no, stop! "I tried to get my hands free, it was useless. He was stronger than me. I felt his hard body grind against mine, his hip bone pressed hard into mine, painfully. I could feel his warm breath gently fanning my ears, my chest rose and fell more quickly than usual. I felt something warm in my jaw, I knew it was his lips, and that this mother fucker was going to kiss me. My eyes were still tightly closed. "stop...no...your breath stinks "I heard myself muttering that consistently. I heard a dark chuckle and the warm thing on my jaw moved slowly, slightly teasing upwards.

My Alpha fiancé, Andre Ackhurst, and his brother, Easton Ackhurst, are identical twins. They have the same looks and scent—no one would be able to tell them apart if not for their starkly different personalities. After a savage pack war, Andre dies, and Easton lives. But when Easton takes over as Alpha, he insists on inheriting both lines of the family—he claims to want to care for me, his sister-in-law. When his girlfriend, Callie Wentworth, learns of this, she berates me for shamelessly seducing her boyfriend. That night, I head to my in-laws' room, wanting to ask them to talk Easton out of his ridiculous idea. However, I hear my mother-in-law say, "Andre, Easton is the one who died on the battlefield. Why did you impersonate him and say you're the one who died?" "Easton" sighs. "Callie is an Omega, and she's weak. Her body won't be able to take it when she learns Easton is the one who died. I have to love her for life on Easton's behalf. "Yes, it's unfair to Jane. However, I'm sure she'll stick it out because she's already carrying my pup. Besides, I'll secretly care for her. She's so kind and considerate—I'm sure she'll understand why I've done this." I'm in disbelief after hearing this. Finally, I understand that my fiancé didn't die. He merely pretended to be his brother so he could comfort another woman. During breakfast the following morning, I tell my in-laws my plan. "Thank you for helping me move past Andre's death. I've thought things through, and I've decided to abort the pup. I'm going to start afresh." As soon as the words are out of my mouth, "Easton" suddenly shatters the bowl he holds as he feeds Callie.

I'm Cassandra Rivera. I'm eighteen years old and in my first year at University, taking up Fine Arts. My life has been hell since I was young. My parents, sister, and brother treated me as their slave. They beat me if I did wrong. I started working for my family when I was six years old, and if I did wrong, my parents would scold and beat me. When I was younger, I wondered why my family treated me this way, but when I was ten years old, my mother got angry at me and she told me that I was an unwanted child. She wanted to abort me when I was still in her womb, but I kept holding on. They don't like me out of this world, and since then, I didn't see them as my family but as my employer like how they treated me as their maid. Luckily, there's a helper at home who cares for me, and I saw her as my second mother. She would tend my cuts and bruises every time my family beat me. Sometimes, my father punished her because of me. I love Mama Amara, because she's the only person who cares for me, and love me. When I enter the university, I meet this guy. His name is Jaxon Garcia. He's from a wealthy family. He's good to me, and when he told me his feelings, I quickly accepted it. We were happy for a few months, but I found out he only courted me because of a bet with my brother Kris. I was devastated, and for the first time, I wanted the comfort of my father. But my father did the worst. He used me as collateral for his debt to the wealthiest man in the country.

Summer morning, Wynter ran away from home to avoid his father's wrath towards her. Despite being mistreated by her grandmother and relatives, she chose to go to her grandmother's province since it was her last resort. She planned to stay there until the end of summer before her school starts. Through her stay in her grandmother's mansion, she experienced an unusual happening. A ghost named Theros appears in her room and starts to pester her. She was scared at first until she finds comfort in the ghost that made them become friends. Sa maikling panahon na pagsasama nila, nahulog si Theros kay Wynter at sa kabila ng pagkakaiba nila, naglakas loob na umamin si Theros. Kahit na may pagtingin din si Wynter kay Theros, Wyner decided to keep her feelings until her 18th birthday. Gusto niyang sa araw na 'yon sabihin kay Theros ang sagot sa pagtatapat nito. However, the supposed special day turns into a sorrowful one. Sa araw na dapat pagkikita nila ay walang sumipot na Theros. Wynter waited from dawn until dusk but he didn't come. She waited until her last day staying at her grandmother's home, but still, no one came. After a year, in an Art Museum, she saw Theros again, right in front of her eyes. Theros, on the other hand, didn't recognize her. He introduced himself as Aziz. Upang hindi pagtabuyan ni Theros, hindi na lamang niya ipinilit ang katotohanang may pinagsamahan sila noon. Sa paraang 'yon ay naging malapit muli sila. But what if Aziz was not the real Theros, but the twin brother, Ajax? Will she start again with Ajax, or continue the deal between her and Aziz?

[WARNING STRONG MATURED CONTENTS] Beside me, I sensed his movement as he turned towards me, his eyes searching for mine. I purposely avoided meeting his gaze, instead focusing on calming my racing breath. But try as I might, my breath still trembled, betraying my inner turmoil. Despite my rapid blinking, a single tear escaped, making its way down my cheek. I heard the covers rustle as he shifted closer to me. His finger gently brushed against my face, capturing the tear. "I'm sorry, Hailey," his voice resonated in the dimly lit room, both deep and gentle. His touch was followed by a soft stroke through my brunette hair and a tender kiss on the crook of my neck. "I know this isn't what you wanted," he murmured, regret evident in his voice. "It doesn't matter," I replied quietly, my gaze still fixed on the ceiling. His apology felt like a stab to the heart, but I couldn't hold him responsible. Our circumstances were far beyond our control.Swallowing hard, I tried to push down the ache in my chest. "It was unavoidable, it isn't your fault," I muttered, fighting back the tears that threatened to spill. He sighed heavily, running a hand through his dark, tousled hair. His arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer to him. I allowed my cheek to rest against his strong chest, finding some solace in his comforting presence. The steady rhythm of his heartbeat brought a sliver of comfort to my shattered emotions. "I wish I could have given you more time to get to know me before all of this," he confessed, a touch of bitterness seeping into his words. "But those old Elders insisted on sealing our union immediately."

In my previous life, my Alpha mate hated me for ten years because his childhood sweetheart committed suicide by taking silver poison after he marked me. I worked tirelessly to fulfill my duties as his Luna, enduring his indifference with patience. But all he ever did was sneer coldly at me. "How I wish it had been you who died instead." The words pierced my heart like silver claws. But when the rogue wolves invaded our territory, he still threw himself in front of me to take the killing blow. As he lay dying in my arms, he used what little strength remained to push away my hand that was trying to comfort him. "Sage," he whispered, "if only I had never met you in this lifetime..." At his funeral, the pack elders wept uncontrollably. "Alpha Kieran, this is all our fault. We never should have forced you to bond with your fated mate. If we had honored your wishes and let you bind with Elena instead, would today's outcome have been different?" Even the Alpha King, who had once supported our union, no longer stood by me. Nearly every pack member blamed me. "The Alpha saved you three times. He was such a good man. Why did you always bring him nothing but disaster? Why wasn't it you who died instead?" Everyone regretted that Kieran had bonded with me. Even I regretted it. Finally, unable to bear the pain any longer, I ended my own life before the Moon Goddess's statue with the silver dagger Kieran had given me. But the Moon Goddess granted me another chance, sending me back to before Kieran and I were bonded. This time, I decided to fulfill Kieran's wishes, give up my status as his fated mate, and leave completely to make everyone happy.
