Double Dare Trigger Happy

C’était le jour que j’avais tant rêvé. Vêtue de blanc, je croyais rayonner. J’attendais. J’attendais Ara, l’homme que j’aimais plus que tout, plus que moi-même. Les heures ont passé, lentes, lourdes. L’attente s’est changée en angoisse, puis en un étau de détresse qui serrait ma gorge. Ma mère était là, sa main sur la mienne, mais aucun réconfort ne pouvait atteindre l’endroit glacé où mon cœur se fissurait déjà. Une notification. Une lueur d’espoir absurde. Peut-être un accident, une urgence, quelque chose , n’importe quoi , d’excusable. J’ai ouvert l’application. Et j’ai vu. En direct : lui souriant , sous une voûte que je ne connaissais pas, il tenait la main d’une autre. Il glissait un anneau à son doigt. Il prononçait des vœux...pour une autre. Mon monde s’est arrêté. Puis il s’est effondré en silence, en poussière fine. Et dans mon ventre, il y avait notre secret. Notre enfant. La nouvelle que je gardais pour ce soir, comme un dernier cadeau, un sceau sur notre bonheur. Le gage d’un amour qui n’existait déjà plus. La douleur a été si totale, si absolue, qu’elle a éteint la lumière. Mes jambes ont cédé. La soie blanche a fouetté l’air puis s’est alourdie contre le sol. Et une question, une seule, qui brûlait ce qui restait de mon âme : Pourquoi ? Pourquoi m’as-tu laissée là, avec ton enfant dans le ventre et ta promesse en cendres ? Pourquoi as-tu choisi de me tuer ainsi devant tout le monde ? Le noir m’a prise. Mais avant qu’il n’emporte tout : je ne me réveillerais plus jamais la femme qui a cru au rêve.

By our sixth year of marriage, Derrick hadn't touched me in three months. Said he was swamped at work. Always tired. After everything, I still believed him. Then on my birthday, I caught his friend talking in Garmenian—a language Derrick didn't think I understood. "You cut off the side piece yet? You were with her nonstop. Surprised you didn't drop dead. Your wife cool with that?" Derrick let out a smoke ring. "Haven't touched Audrey in months. Sabrina's insane in bed—I'm not over her yet. Sucks she got pregnant. Audrey doesn't want kids, so I gave Sabrina some cash. She'll have the baby overseas." My hands curled into fists. Silent tears streamed down my face. He glanced over, nervous. "What's wrong?" I smiled. "The cake you made is amazing. I'm really touched." It was sweet—but when you understand Garmenian, all you taste is betrayal.

I didn’t just lose my mate on the night of our Ascendance Ball. I lost my dignity. Standing in the center of the gilded ballroom, in a dress that cost more than my life, I watched Drail choose her. My best friend. He didn't just reject our fated bond; he laughed while doing it, his hand resting on her pregnant stomach. Cast out. Humiliated. Rogue. I ran into the storm and straight into the chest of a monster. Derek Montenegro. The Ruthless. The exiled Prince of the European packs. A man with tattoos crawling up his neck and a reputation for breaking bones as easily as he breaks hearts. He’s cold, commanding, and dangerously beautiful. He offers me a deal. A contract. "Marry me, Raya. Wear my mark. Become the Queen of the underworld, and I will give you the power to crush the people who broke you." I thought I was signing a deal with the devil to get revenge. I didn't know the devil had a twin. And I certainly didn't know that the rejection wasn't an accident—it was the first move in a war between brothers, and I am the weapon they both intend to wield.

Ellie was a good, ideal werewolf of her pack. Once abandoned by her family, she wanted to do everything she could to give back the love and care she received from her adopted family, even if it meant giving up her own wolf for a better future for them. However, what she did not know was that it was all a trick. That she was never loved by anyone in the pack; not her family, nor her mate. And the rite used for ‘her sake’? It was actually for her sister’s sake. All this time, Ellie was but a pawn to be used and tossed away. One day, she met an injured werewolf in the middle of the woods, who claimed her to be his mate, and later saved her from a cruel fate. Only… “We may be mates, but I feel nothing from you. All I want from you is to bear my child.” Once again, she was to be used as a pawn for someone else, when all she wanted was to at least be treated as any other werewolf. Will Ellie ever be able to change her fate? Can she get through to her mate? Will she find out what happened to her real parents?
