"What are you doing?" I exclaimed, shocked, as I felt multiple hands caressing my body with deliberate slowness. "What do you think? We're exercising our rights as your husbands," one of them replied in a deep, husky voice that sent shivers down my spine and ignited desire within me. "But I thought this was merely an arrangement to secure a cure for you guys," I stammered, my mind clouded by the overwhelming pleasure brought on by their wandering touch. They all chuckled darkly in unison, as if they had rehearsed it. "Yes, we are aware of that, but our arrangement doesn't forbid us from indulging in what's rightfully ours. And trust us, we plan to savor every moment," another whispered, sinking his teeth into my neck while simultaneously exploring me with his fingers.

Desde a morte do primeiro amor de Luís Almeida, ele passou a me odiar por dez anos. Tentei agradá-lo de todas as formas, mas ele apenas zombava friamente: — Se você realmente quer me agradar, então morra. Aquilo doeu profundamente. Mas, quando um caminhão avançou na minha direção, foi ele quem se jogou na frente... e morreu sobre uma poça de sangue para me salvar. Antes de fechar os olhos, ele me lançou um olhar profundo e murmurou: — Teria sido melhor... se eu nunca tivesse te conhecido. No funeral, minha sogra estava inconsolável: — Eu devia ter deixado o Luís ficar com a Gabriela Nunes. Nunca deveria ter forçado esse casamento! Meu sogro me culpava com raiva: — O meu finho salvou sua vida três vezes! Um homem como ele... Por que não foi você quem morreu no lugar dele? Todos lamentavam o fato de ele ter se casado comigo. Até eu me arrependia. Fui expulsa do funeral, completamente atordoada. Três anos depois, uma máquina do tempo surgiu do nada — e eu voltei ao passado. Desta vez, escolhi cortar todos os laços com Luís... e realizar o desejo de todos.

"What if... what if I had gotten pregnant back then? What if we had a child together? What would you do in that situation?" Ms. Julia leaned in, moving close to my ear, and whispered with a chilling intensity, "I would have killed him without a second thought." My eyes widened in shock, but the devil woman nodded with a cold smile. "That's right.

Ma vie était toute tracée. Je savais que j’hériterais de la meute, mais je ne savais pas qu’un mariage arrangé faisait partie des devoirs de l’Alpha. Donc, évidemment, je n’aimais pas la fille que mes parents avaient choisie, même si c’était ma compagne — belle et intelligente !Mon instinct de compagnon m’avait poussé à la revendiquer, mais mon côté rationnel me força à la rejeter après une nuit parfaite. Je n’ai réalisé mon amour pour elle que lorsque je l’ai perdue, quand elle a quitté la meute pour réaliser ses rêves. Cependant, mon amour n’était pas mort quand je l’ai revue, lors de mes fiançailles avec quelqu’un d’autre. Cette fois-ci, je ne la laisserai pas partir, même si ça voulait dire blesser une autre fille, ou même provoquer une guerre de meute. Mais elle m’avait dit que ce n’était pas possible, qu’elle aimait quelqu’un d’autre et qu’elle avait déjà eu un enfant de lui. Déçu et désespéré, je pensais l’avoir perdue pour toujours, mais… Pourquoi est-ce que son bébé me dit quelque chose ?
