Pregnant. It wasn't possible. My mate was impotent, doomed to be the first Alpha in generations unable to produce heirs. Yet this cheap plastic stick I had bought on a whim seemed to suggest otherwise. I swiped at the beads of sweat gathering along my hairline, my breaths coming faster. "This can't be right," I muttered. But the crimson line remained, taunting me. My wolf stirred restlessly, a pleased rumble echoing through our bond. "A pup! Our Alpha's pup," she purred. I pressed a hand to my still-flat stomach, emotions churning wildly. Of course I was overjoyed - as Luna, providing heirs was my most sacred duty. After nine months sharing Adrian's bed with no success, I had accepted my fate.

“$100,000!” yelled a man with a golden tooth and a scar that looked like it had been carved by a bear. “$200,000!” “$300,000!” The numbers climbed, each one a nail on my coffin. “$1 million.” The entire room froze and practically everyone turned towards the deep commanding voice.

When the rival Gomez Cartel declares war, Ramon does the unexpected. Lola Volcan rises from the ashes of betrayal, daring to rewrite her destiny.

Na cabine do banheiro da empresa, ouvi alguém falando mal de mim. A estagiária que eu treinei pessoalmente por três meses reclamava: — Ela é uma bruxa velha e insensível, como um robô que não sabe pensar. Quando eu estava prestes a abrir a porta para interromper, outra pessoa concordou rindo. — Os documentos estão incompletos. — Os recibos não estão em conformidade. — O chefe não assinou, não posso pagar. — As frases de sempre dela, já sabemos todas de cor! Depois que todas foram embora, voltei silenciosamente para o meu escritório. A estagiária jogou uma pilha grossa de pedidos de reembolso na minha mesa: — Não venha com um monte de desculpas de novo para não reembolsar o pessoal de propósito. Dei uma olhada na nota fiscal falsificada, mas não a desmascarei como costumava fazer. Desta vez, eu sorri levemente: — Estou com dor de cabeça, não consigo enxergar as letras direito.

Setelah dikhianati kekasihnya, Alea mencari pelarian dalam kebodohan sesaat—segelas minuman, tawa asing, dan pelukan seorang pria yang terasa hangat di antara kekosongan—one night stand.
