Contemptuous Sentence

Thalia Corsini's wedding night ends with seven bullets and her husband's blood soaking through her white dress. Rafael Torrisi dies in her arms before they can even consummate the marriage, and when she screams for help, nobody comes fast enough. Three days later, she's at another altar. Same family. Different brother. Dante Torrisi looks at her like she pulled the trigger herself. He's colder than Rafael ever was, more brutal, and infinitely more dangerous. Their marriage is a prison sentence designed to save a crumbling alliance between two crime families on the brink of war. But someone is still trying to kill Thalia. The attempts keep coming, a sniper's bullet, a car bomb, poison meant for her wine glass. Dante is forced to protect the woman he blames for his twin's death, and as they dig deeper into the murder, they realize Rafael might not have been the target at all. In a world where love is weakness and trust gets you killed, Thalia and Dante have to decide: destroy each other, or discover who really wanted her dead.

When I became pregnant, my gravely ill mother mentioned that her final wish was to witness my wedding. My boyfriend, William Jones, finally agrees to marry me after I have been asking for 99 days. Yet, on the wedding day, he never shows up, even though I was waiting in my gown at the hotel the whole day. The truth only emerges when someone found his marriage certificate that he had posted a month earlier on social media. He married his childhood sweetheart, Caroline Ashton, during that time. When my mother learns this, the shock triggers a fatal attack. She passes away despite the doctors' efforts. William sends me a message. "I'm sorry, honey. Caroline twisted her ankle, so I had to take care of her. We'll have our wedding next month, okay? I promise I'll make it up to you this time." … A month later, William prepares a lavish, grand wedding just for me. Dressed in a custom-tailored suit, he waits at the hotel. Yet, all he receives is the report from my abortion procedure. There is only one sentence on the back—"William, this is goodbye forever."

Petal Athena Jones grew up in the MC life. She was royalty there in her father's Club, the Lost Boys. She was the princess along with her best friend Margo. They were treated as such.

They were free and finally in charge of their own lives for the first time. What will these bold women do? What will happen when five short years later, they are discovered? How will the boys who have loved them all their lives react when they find that the MC Princesses are now Queens with no need of Kings?

"You are mine, Lizzbeth. But as Alpha King, I must reject an omega slave like you." He said that sentence right after their wedding night. "You are rejected. Now, do your duties as my fake contract mate. You must hide our relationship from everyone. Especially, about your pregnancy." ..................................................................................................................... Her 6th rejection forced Lizzbeth to be sold to an Alpha King everyone hates. Why her? Because she is a former king's Alpha daughter who lost her royal status and was expelled from her pack. She must sell herself to free her subordinates. What Lizzbeth doesn't know is that her married life with Alpha King Hilbert is beyond what she expected. Hilbert turned out to be the Alpha she rejected years ago! And he used this fake contract mate as revenge for his unrequited love. "How does it feel to be sold by your father to the Alpha you rejected? Now, you will spend the rest of your life as a child machine for me." ... "You want to save your subordinate, right? Then don't you dare run away from me, or I'll destroy that small pack of yours."

My best friend Seraphine had not one drop of blood left in her body when they found her. Her skin was translucent. There were two dried trails of blood from the corners of her mouth, like she had wept herself empty long before the end. She left one note. One sentence: "Vera saw his face." From that day forward, I became the Covenant's greatest sinner. Because I knew who did it. But I said nothing. For ten years, I said nothing. Then Lucian came back. He was the one who had turned us, raised us, given us the only home we had ever known. He set the Soul Prism in front of me. "Tonight," he said, "you give me the killer." His eyes hadn't changed. That was the worst part. After ten years of exile, of stones and fire and nights that never got warmer, I looked at him and he was still exactly who he had always been to me. "Or you disappear from this world along with him." He didn't know. The reason I had chosen exile and starvation and a Blood Oath that had been eating my soul core alive for a decade — was him. All of it, always, had been for him.

"You are coming with us", Bryan the first born twin said with no room for argument to Kira. "I am not going anywhere with both of you", Kira snarled at them.

"I said, NO", Kira yelled at them, "I will never go back to that pack, I will never go anywhere with you two, I don't even want to be mated to both of you", she told them and started laughing while cleaning off the tears that rolled down from her eyes, "Do you know what?", she raised her brow at them,  "I reje-" But before she could complete that sentence, the Alpha twins quickly grabbed her, each on one side, their fangs elongated and bit down on her neck, marking her forcefully.

"I'll give you the heir, Alpha. But I’m taking my heart—and my secret—with me." ​Elara is a "nameless" Omega, sold by her debt-ridden uncle to be the surrogate for the most feared man in the Lycan world: King Kaelen, the Black Winter. The contract is a death sentence for her heart: Conceive his heir, hand over the pup, and vanish from the Royal City forever. If she fails, her sickly younger brother pays the price. ​But the moment Kaelen touches her, the truth shatters Elara’s world. He isn’t just a cold-hearted King—he is her fated mate. To stay alive in a court of vipers, Elara must hide her identity under a heavy veil and a scent-masking spell. She must play the role of a lowly servant while carrying the King’s child, all while Kaelen’s "Fake Luna" plots her demise. ​But a King’s wolf cannot be fooled forever. When the veil rips and the scent of lilies and winter rain fills the air, the Black Winter will realize the woman he has been treating as a nameless vessel is the only woman the Moon Goddess ever chose for him. ​One night of duty. A lifetime of secrets. A bond that could burn the kingdom to the ground.
