Como la única hija de Carlos Navarro, el rey de las apuestas, mi vida desde siempre estuvo marcada por la sombra del caos y el peligro. Desde que era pequeña, mi papá me rodeó de nueve guardaespaldas leales para protegerme, listos para sacrificarse por mí. Ya de adulta, él me hizo una petición: que eligiera a uno de ellos como mi prometido. Pero tomé una decisión muy clara: alejé de mi lado a Alberto Oliveira, el único hombre que realmente había ocupado mi corazón por tanto tiempo. Lo hice por esto: en mi otra vida, justo el día de la ceremonia de compromiso, unos enemigos me secuestraron. Mientras me estaban clavando agujas envenenadas en las manos, temblando del dolor más terrible, llamé a Alberto, suplicándole que viniera. Pero su respuesta fue helada, sin una pizca de empatía. —Andrea Navarro, ya deja de hacer tus teatros. ¿Tu ubicación no miente, no? ¡Sigues cómodamente instalada en la suite del hotel! Qué asco, usar un truco tan bajo solo para intentar atraparme... Al escuchar aquellas risas de mujer al otro lado de la línea, sentí un golpe mortal. Cerré los ojos, totalmente consumida por la derrota. Cuando la jaula metálica se hundió en el mar y el agua gélida me invadió, llenándome la nariz y la boca, sentí cómo la vida se me escurrió del cuerpo, gota a gota. Volví a despertar... Esta vez, era el día en que mi padre me pidió que eligiera a mi prometido. Y esta vez, no dudé ni un segundo en borrar el nombre de Alberto de la lista. Sin embargo, durante mi compromiso con Leonardo Pinto, ¿por qué era él quien estaba suplicándome entre lágrimas que me casara con él?

Mi matrimonio con Dante Moretti sorprendió a todos. Tengo un temperamento explosivo y nunca doy marcha atrás. Tras tres años de matrimonio, todo el submundo de Chicago sabía que estábamos siempre a punto de cortarnos el cuello. Excepto en la cama. Allí, nuestros cuerpos simplemente encajaban. El único momento en que no estábamos en guerra era cuando estábamos enredados en las sábanas, perdidos en una tormenta de besos desesperados y placer puro. Innumerables veces me dijo que estaba obsesionado con mi cuerpo, siempre justo en el momento en que se hundía en mí. Pensé que era su forma de decir que se estaba enamorando. Todo eso se derrumbó en una subasta, cuando me arrebató la reliquia de mi madre solo para dársela a ella: una chica de aspecto frágil llamada Ava. Fue entonces cuando me mostró una crueldad que nunca había visto. —Es hora de que pongas los pies en la tierra, Elara —había dicho, con la voz fría como el hielo—. Casarme contigo y acostarme contigo... todo fue solo para mantener la paz entre nuestras familias. Ava es a quien quiero proteger. Pero el día que finalmente me fui de Chicago, el día que anuncié nuestro divorcio al mundo... Ese Don de la mafia, frío y calculador, me persiguió como un hombre poseído.

“You threw divorce papers in my face, humiliated me, and now you’re crawling back saying you love me?” Samantha laughed coldly, her voice dripping with venom. “Do I look like a fool to you, Nathan?” “I made a mistake,” he whispered brokenly. “Please, Samantha… don’t leave me. I still love you.” “Love?” she asked with a mocking smile, dragging a finger slowly down his chest. “You didn’t love me when you threw me out for someone richer. You just want me now… because you have nothing left.” ***** Samantha gave up everything for love—her family, her pride, her identity—just to please a man who saw her as nothing more than a disposable wife. After sacrificing everything for Nathan and his controlling family, all she got in return was betrayal, humiliation, and divorce. But Samantha had a secret. She wasn’t just a scorned ex-wife, she’s the hidden heiress of the most powerful conglomerate in America and she’s done playing nice. When she returns to the world she once left behind, she isn’t the meek woman begging for love anymore. She’s fierce, fearless, and filthy rich. And this time, she’s calling the shots.

Zarek's laughter cut me off, a harsh jeering sound. "Sacrifices?" he repeated, his voice oozing disdain. "You think killing your own brother was a sacrifice? You did that for me, didn't you, Kaidaira?" I felt the weight of my heart as it sank to the anchors of despair. "Yes," I whispered, the memory of that night flooding through my mind. "I did it to protect you-to protect our pack." Zarek was grinning from ear to ear. "And now, that same pack will profit from your sale. Poetic, don't you think?" I felt a chill dread creeping over me. "You used me," Zarek shrugged. "You were useful. Now you're not." ~~~~~~~~~ Being sold off by the one man you loved the most would leave any woman maimed for life.. In a world where fate and ruin are intertwined, one such fate will forever bind Kaidaira to the pack she has sworn to protect. But her heart belongs to Thane-an alpha, mysterious and brooding, who once stood on the receiving end of her blade. Torn between loyalty, love, and revenge, Kaidaira must choose: protect her pack or surrender to the all-consuming passion binding her to Thane. But one fact will not take long to be made clear as the darkness deepens, their love can definitely prove to be the one thing to bring about their doom. Thane was the only one who could defy the odds and save Kaidaira from herself, but will their bond survive against this encroaching darkness, or is this a love which has been forever entwined in a curse that will now claim them in its dance of self-destruction? No power greater, than that of a scorned woman.

I dumped Orion Gray when he was at his poorest. I even aborted the child we had together. In the blink of an eye, I got together with a rich man. After that, Orion went abroad in anger and sadness. Within two short years, he turned into the CEO of a publicly listed company. When he came back to the country, he swore that he would exact his revenge on me. However, my mother sent a disfigured corpse to his house and asked him to restore it to its original state. He did not know that it was the corpse of the person he hated the most—me.

Na festa, minha filha levantou de propósito uma pergunta para o meu marido. — Papai, já que a Srta. Lloyd está grávida do seu bebê, isso quer dizer que vamos morar com ela no futuro? Ele coloca o bife cortado com cuidado no meu prato e responde suavemente: — Sua mamãe e eu fizemos um acordo — quem trair primeiro desaparecerá da vida do outro. Eu não posso deixar isso acontecer, querida, então isso precisa permanecer em segredo. Mesmo quando o bebê nascer, eu nunca vou deixar a mamãe descobrir sobre eles. Em seguida, ele faz um sinal para mim: — Eu sempre vou te amar. Meus olhos ficaram marejados mas ele não percebeu. Mal sabe ele que minha audição foi restaurada há uma semana. Ele também não sabe que eu já descobri a amante que ele vinha escondendo. E muito menos imagina que eu comprei secretamente uma passagem para atuar como professora voluntária no Planalto de Seru. Tudo o que preciso fazer agora é esperar sete dias até a papelada ser aprovada. Então, eu vou desaparecer da vida dele para sempre.

You’re not supposed to want straight men. Carson Bitters wants nothing more than to feel his secretary inside him. He dreams of it every day. You’re not supposed to fall in love with them. They won’t love you back. But Carson can’t stop longing for Asher Hall; the man his homophobic father handpicked for him. A living, breathing, giant NO. And yet, every time Asher speaks, every glance, every careless brush of his hand, Carson finds himself wanting more. Needing more. And what starts as longing could destroy everything, or make it unforgettable.

Aux yeux des autres, j'étais Mme Ward, la reine intouchable aux côtés d'Elias Ward, le chef de la mafia de Paris. Mais je savais que mon mari ne m'avait jamais aimée. Son cœur appartenait toujours à Harper Dinah, la femme de son neveu. Et après la mort de ce dernier, il n'a pas hésité à faire venir Harper chez nous. « Je veux juste mieux m'occuper d'elle », m'a-t-il dit. Mais sa version de « s'occuper d'elle » consistait à expulser un homme d'une fête parce qu'il avait osé flirter avec Harper et à la rendre enceinte. Elias adorait me complimenter en public, comme si j'étais la femme parfaite. Oui, je l'avais été autrefois. J'avais l'aidé à bâtir son empire et fait briller son casino. J'étais celle qui souriait, aimable, toujours accueillante. Et pendant ce temps, il cachait Harper, comme si elle était une relique sacrée. Puis, c'était grâce à « ces louanges » incessantes qu'un de ses ennemis m'a prise pour cible. Un groupe de voyous m'a enlevée, envoyant à Elias un message menaçant : « Dégage de Paris, ou ta femme va y passer ! » Bien sûr, Elias n'a pas choisi de céder. « Tiens bon », m'a-t-il dit au téléphone, « Ils ne te feront pas de mal, Noah. Tiens jusqu'à ce que Harper accouche. Je viendrai te chercher. » J'ai été alors enfermée dans une cave sale pendant huit mois, affamée, battue, humiliée. Le chef des malfrats m'a violée encore et encore. Et pourtant, Elias n'est jamais venu. Finalement, alors qu'ils étaient tous ivres, j'ai réussi à m'échapper. De retour chez moi, j'ai trouvé mes jumeaux endormis dans la chambre des domestiques, mangeant des restes, tandis que leur père organisait une fête pour son nouveau-né... Je ne l'ai pas affronté et suis partie avec mes enfants.
