Don't Call My Name Alejandro

I'm accidentally pushed off a cliff when my fiancé and I are enjoying the sunset. I end up with grave injuries. As I drift in and out of consciousness, I hear Eric Bartholomew speaking to a doctor. "Gamma Derrina's injuries aren't that severe, Alpha. She can be treated even without her womb being removed!" "Shut up! Do it because I say it needs to be done. Don't forget that I'm the Alpha here—all you need to do is obey me! Only if Derrina loses her womb can my and Phyllis' pup to become the wolf pack's heir. "Use copious amounts of sedatives on her. I don't want her to wake up on the wedding day. She'll be sad if she sees that the bride isn't her." I open my eyes and look at Eric standing outside the room. He's like a monster with hands that can end lives. I'll make his wish come true since he wants to marry that weak Omega. I make a call. "I agree with the thing you asked me about before." The person on the other end of the line laughs. "The Moon Goddess loves the wise."

On our sixth wedding anniversary, my cheeks burn as I dodge my husband, Ethan Grant, leaning in for a hungry kiss. I push him toward the nightstand for a rubber. What he doesn't know is that I've tucked a surprise in there, a positive pregnancy test. I can already see it, the way his whole face will light up the second he finds it. But the moment his hand goes for the drawer, his phone goes off. His best friend, Henry Miller, comes on the line in Danish. "Mr. Grant, how was last night? That new love couch our company rolled out is treating you okay?" Ethan lets out a low laugh and answers in Danish, "The massage feature's great. Saves me from having to rub Sandy's back myself." He still has me pulled tight against him, but his eyes look straight through me, like he's seeing someone else. "This stays between us. If my wife ever finds out I slept with her sister, I'm done." It feels like someone just put a knife through my chest. What they don't know is that I minored in Danish in college, so I catch every single word. I force myself to stay calm, but the arms I have looped around Ethan's neck won't stop shaking. At that moment, I stop hesitating and decide I'll take the offer from that international research project. Three days from now, I'll be gone from Ethan's world for good.

The buzzing of my phone in the middle of the night jolted me awake. On the other end of the line came a voice I could never forget. It was my daughter! However, she died three years ago!

Isang pirma. Isang apelyido. Isang kasunduang tuluyang babago sa buhay ni Celestine Ramirez. Walang kaalam-alam sa galaw ng mga makapangyarihang tao, napilitang pumayag si Celestine sa isang kasal na hindi niya ginusto—isang papel na dapat sanang gampanan ng kapatid niyang tumakas sa responsibilidad. Ang lalaking pinakasalan niya? Si Lucas Arguelles Sevllia. CEO ng Arguelles Holdings. Kilalang malamig, walang puso, at kayang pabagsakin ang sinumang hindi sumunod sa kanya. Akala ni Celestine, tatlong buwan lang ang lahat—hanggang makansela ang kontrata. Pero paano kung ang lalaking walang pakialam ay unti-unting nagiging protektibo, mapagmasid, at... mapagmahal? At paano kung sa likod ng tahimik nitong pagkilos, ay ang matagal nang lihim—na hindi aksidente ang pagkakapili sa kanya? "Hangga’t dala mo ang apelyido ko, akin ka," bulong ni Locas sa kanyang tainga. "At hindi ko hayaan na maagaw ka ninuman." Pero sa mundong puno ng lihim, kasinungalingan, at makakalaya pa ba siya sa isang pangalang hindi niya pinili… ngunit minahal na niya?

Makikipaghiwalay si Sarah sa asawa upang mahanap ang mga anak. Lingid sa kaalaman ng lalaki ang katotohanan na iyon at mayroon siyang triplets na pagka-anak niya ay ibinigay sa kaibigan.

“You can call me when you’re lonely. I’ll be your temporary fix.” Those were the words that he said to me and it was plain simple, he wanted nothing but sex and I wanted nothing more than too. I was the kind of girl who was too scared of falling in love again because I feel like there is something more in life than being mournful over a guy who never actually gave a hell. I deserve something more than pain and misery over a stupid heartbreak. Since then, I got too scared of commitment that I no longer wanted to be in one. I wanted fun and I wanted to feel like I am alive again. He was the kind of guy who was too busy for permanent relationships. The superstar that all women wanted to bang with. The kind of guy who would have any girls kneel down in front of him because well, he is that kind of guy. He was a guy with a hectic schedule, sold out world tours, drinking champagne in private jets, holding a mic in one hand and conquering all over the world on the other. Maybe I needed someone to show me how to live again and he needed someone to show him how to love.

One contract. One wedding. A lifetime of consequences. Elara Williams never thought her freedom would be traded for her stepfather’s failing empire. But when she’s forced into an arranged marriage with Adrian Wolfe…. the ruthless, unreadable heir to a billion-dollar dynasty….she discovers her cage is made of gold. Adrian needs a wife to secure control of his family’s legacy. Elara just wants to survive. But behind Adrian’s cold exterior is a man scarred by betrayal… and a dangerous pull she can’t resist. Just as their fragile bond deepens, his manipulative ex, a scheming family, and a web of secrets threaten to tear them apart. And when Elara becomes the target of enemies who know too much, both love and survival come at a price. Can two strangers trapped by duty learn to fight not just for each other… but for the kind of love neither believed in?

Can love still save what's broken when all that's left are shattered hearts running away from the haunting past? Their story isn't the ordinary for what you've seen will not something you'd expect the same way. Love will will make you believe a fantasy but in reality it will only tear you apart. It is filled with secrets you never want to know. The question is, are you ready to know what is behind all these betrayals?

"A great alpha handles pack affairs outside, and chores at home." my mate Luke had posted. I stared at these words. It was a post from my mate, Luke's Instagram. In the picture he was in a vineyard pruning grapes. Chores at home? Luke who would not even help me to clean a table was actually helping someone else. He had left this morning saying he was going on werewolf business, but from these pictures he was at a she-wolf's vineyard in our pack. A bitter smile escaped my lips as I quietly liked the post and put of my phone. Whatever was coming next, I did not know. But I knew it was over.
