Court Of Ice And Ash

"Why aren't you ready for me?" His voice cut through the darkness, sharp as a blade. His hands gripped my hips, fingers digging into soft flesh. "How often do I have to tell you about the rules?" "I'm sorry," I whispered, my throat tight. "I was sick again today, and work was—" "Excuses." He ripped away my underwear, the fabric tearing. "You smell like a kitchen maid. Disgusting." I bit my lip until I tasted blood, fighting back tears. Three years. Three years of being his unwanted wife, forced on him by his grandfather's deal. The old man's words still echoed: "You saved my life, child. Let me give you a good life in return." ***** Five years ago, Elena thought she’d left her nightmare behind. Forced into a loveless marriage with the ruthless Nikolai Ashford, she endured his cold accusations and cruel indifference. But when their toxic relationship threatened the life of her unborn child, she vanished, reinventing herself as Mia Thompson—a confident heiress with a powerful empire of her own. Now, Mia’s carefully rebuilt world is crumbling. One of her twins is gravely ill, and the only hope for survival lies in Nikolai, the man who shattered her heart. Returning to his world isn’t just a desperate gamble to save her child—it’s a chance to exact the revenge she’s dreamed of for years.

Clara Veyron’s life falls apart in a single night, her fiancé’s betrayal, her best friend’s lies, and a storm that leaves her wandering the streets alone. But heartbreak is nothing compared to what she finds next: a wounded stranger with silver eyes, a man whose very presence pulls her into a world she was never meant to see. Kael Arden is no ordinary man. He is Alpha of the Shadowclaw Pack, bound by a curse that has destroyed every human woman who dared to love him. He swore never to claim a mate again, or to risk another innocent life. Until Clara’s touch heals what should have been fatal, and awakens a bond that should not exist. Now Clara is hunted by rivals who see her as the key to Kael’s downfall, and despised by wolves who call her unworthy of their Alpha. Torn between her humanity and the fierce call of the wolf bond, she must choose: walk away from the man who could ruin her career and life, or fight beside him against enemies who would see them both destroyed. But Kael has only one choice left. And this time, fate has given him something to lose.

Ashley is a successful, brave, young lady, beta of the Collin's family and Luna to the alpha of Oakstone. She plays the role of a very competent leader to her pack and as a helper to her alpha. However, she was backstabbed, framed and killed by her close friend, Luciana who knew her weakpoint and was jealous of her. She met her untimely death but death was only the beginning for Ashley. She woke up, reborn in another girl's body and in a strange land. But whose body was she inhabiting? Would she be as strong as the old Ashley? What would Lance do when he finds his lost Luna?

At my wedding rehearsal, my fiancé's colleague, Haley Rhodes burst in and tore apart the carefully arranged decor. "Ryan promised he'd marry me!" she shrieked, storming closer, "Who do you think you are?" Without warning, she lunged, grabbing hold of the wedding gown, which was worth a fortune. But she only got so far—she was too heavyset to even squeeze it past her head. I let out a mocking laugh. "Don't tell me you're too big to fit even a plus-size wedding dress?" That really set her off. With grim determination, she forced herself into the gown. But as soon as she did, the delicate fabric tore, leaving absurdly stretched holes across her back and waist. "Too bad the dress is ruined now. But who cares?" she sneered triumphantly. "Ryan loves me. He’ll buy me another wedding gown, anyway." But when the actual wedding began, she got the shock of her life. The groom walking down the aisle wasn’t Ryan at all. It was their boss — Ryan and Haley's boss. Well, I never said this was my wedding.

She was in it, to escape a forced marriage. He was in it, because of her. Lana Lang, is the golden daughter of the Lang empire. Or so the world thought. She wanted nothing more than her parent's love and attention but all that was given to her little brother. Sometimes she'd wonder if she was t

Dalawang puso ang tumitibok at naglalayong magpaalab ng sumibol na pag-ibig sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon at panahon. Ang pag-ibig na hindi mapapantayan ang inaalay ni Brael Montegarde at Hasumi Mitsunabi sa isa't isa. Ilang beses na pinaghiwalay ng tadhana subalit muling natatagpuan ang mga sariling tapat na sumisinta sa isa't isa at pinipiling iraos ang pag-ibig na pilit hinahadlangan ng mga taong nakapaligid sa kanila. Isang trahedya sa nakaraan ang muling binabalikan ng kasalukuyan. Ang madugong pagpatay sa mga magulang ni Brael at ang bangungot na patuloy na gumugulo kay Hasumi ay tila ba konektado.  Sa pagsiwalat ng katotohanan ay magugulantang ang mga pusong nagiibigan. Ang pumatay sa mga magulang ni Brael ay ang babaeng minamahal niyang si Hasumi.  Layunin ni Brael Montegarde ang maghiganti sa taong pumaslang sa mga magulang niya. Subalit guguluhin ng pagmamahal niya ang paghangad niya ng hustisya.  Kaya niya bang paslangin ang babaeng mahal niya? O mananaig ang pag-ibig na napunla sa mga puso nilang lubos na nagmamahal sa isa't isa?

"Show me what you are." Tamara gave a shocked sound when Fenrir sank a hand into her hair. His opposite arm snagged her around the waist. He pulled her right against him without any space. He was solid muscle and that made her heart pound. Now she wasn't sure she should have asked. ______ What would you do if the one you loved wasn't even human? If you had to teach them what kindness, love or trust was? Tamara is about to learn that more than just mortal humans exists. As impossible as it seems she might just be the only thing stopping the immortal Fenrir from destroying everything she holds dear. Sometimes just loving one can save so much more than you know.

When I pushed through the main door, covered in blood, I found my amnesiac husband right on top of my best friend. His arm was wrapped around her waist with practiced ease, and she was passionately reciprocating his advances. "Ada will be devastated if she finds out…" Camilla said in a sweet voice through bated breaths. "After all, she really thinks you've lost your memories." Lucio chuckled softly and said in a mocking tone, "It's not my fault she loves me that much. Then again, it's a good thing for me since I can just let her do all the tough and dirty work." He leaned down and planted a kiss on Camilla's lips, mumbling, "Right now, you're the only one I recognize as my wife. Just wait. Once I sign the deal with the Della Veras, I'll have her kicked out and pass everything she owns to you. After all, I no longer remember a thing." Only then did it hit me. My husband's amnesia was all an act, a farce to fool me. Moreover, my best friend conspired with him to stab me in the back. Too bad they didn't know that the Della Vera family, the most feared Mafia family in Ritelle, only acknowledged one person: Me, Ada Rossi.

Dans ma vie précédente, l'Alpha Léon, qui devait normalement célébrer la cérémonie de marquage avec moi, avait changé son choix pour ma sœur Rose le jour de la cérémonie. En voyant la complicité entre eux, un sentiment de honte m'avait envahie en un instant. Je voulais m'avancer pour leur demander pourquoi ils m'avaient fait ça, quand soudainement notre meute avait été attaquée et nous étions tous les trois morts dans ce chaos. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'ai découvert que j'étais retournée à ce jour de la cérémonie de marquage. Cette fois-ci, j'ai choisi de leur donner ma bénédiction. Après avoir aidé les membres à rétablir la paix, j'ai décidé de me rendre dans la société humaine. Je pensais que je ne les reverrais jamais dans cette vie. Mais trois ans plus tard, je les ai retrouvés lors d'une fête d'anniversaire. À ce moment-là, Rose était blottie contre Léon, feignant la surprise en me saluant. « Claire ! Comment se fait-il que tu sois à une fête aussi prestigieuse ? » « Tu étais partie vivre dans la société humaine, non ? » Voyant mon silence, Rose a souri méchamment. « Tu n'arrives pas à vivre dans la société humaine, n'est-ce pas ? Tu veux donc revenir au sein de la meute ? » Léon, de son côté, m'a vue et une expression de dégoût a traversé ses traits. « Même si tu t'agenouilles devant moi maintenant, je ne te permettrai pas de revenir dans la meute. » « Mais, en tant que ma servante, tu as encore ta place. Nous pourrons continuer comme avant. » J'ai esquissé un léger sourire. La raison pour laquelle je me trouvais ici était que mon compagnon était le nouveau président de l'Alliance des loups. Cette fête d'anniversaire, la plus exclusive, était organisée spécialement pour moi par lui.
