Dr No

I spent five years by Casey Fusco's side, turning him from a beggar in the slums to a mafia Don. On the second day he put on the family ring, his first love came knocking on our door with an ultrasound report. Casey pushed the divorce papers toward me with a sorry look on his face. "She's pregnant. I have to give her the position of Donna." My brethren tried to talk me out of doing something foolish, since I had nearly lost my life while trying to help him climb up the ranks. But contrary to their expectations, all I did was sign the papers calmly without making a fuss. "Congratulations on having your wish come true, Don Fusco."

“Fine, but there should be rules.” I said sitting back down. “There is one, don't fall in love with me, Ice Queen.” He said with an ecstatic voice. “I’d be caught dead before that happens!” “We’ll see.” He muttered with a smirk on his face. Everything… Amara Forger had lost everything, from her company to her name. She had given years of hard work and love to the people who tore down to the ground. She is now caught in the middle of a whole lot of drama, but something happens. She is offered help from the one person who she would have never imagined to help her. Her number one enemy, Roman Winters. He offers to marry her and in return he would help her save her firm and return everything she lost while she would help him do something that was biting him down. Amara agrees, but then she sees the terror in the Winters household and she also learns things about Roman that she didn't know. She begins to put things together, but the question remains. Can you fake emotions forever without them turning real?

Para sair com a assistente no dia de Natal, meu marido colocou calmantes no leite em pó da nossa filha. Enquanto eu corria aflita para levar Isabela ao hospital com febre alta, acabei vendo, por acaso, Renato subir as escadas com a assistente no colo. — A Camila torceu o pé. Vim acompanhar ela no atendimento! Nossa filha estava sendo operada, e ele sequer olhou para trás. Apertei com força o bilhete premiado de dez milhões de reais no bolso. Já era hora de desistir desse casamento de sete anos.

The bread knife stuck in Jon doe’s chest had an unusual pattern, I grabbed a camera from the nearest person and clicked a few pictures of the design “Email them to me.” I said as I was handing the camera back to them. It looked ancient and rare, not the usual bread knifes you’d find at our local stores here in Seattle. I looked up to find a detective watching my every move, it seemed that his one side of the face looked sunken in, similarly you only see this in people who don’t have teeth, which prompted me to look into his mouth, to find that all of his teeth had been pulled out. I sighed loudly and said “well, here goes our identification route of checking dental records, this body was left in the hopes that no identification will be made!” Craning my neck to have a look at the coroner who had just arrived on scene, I recalled working with her once before on another case when I first started as a rookie, Dr Leslie Adams is an expert in her field and one of the most professional and efficient woman. She looked down at me, and stated “Detective Rush you do know that the body you are looking at has been dead for more than 3 days, and also looks as if it was stored in a body freezer before being planted at this scene” I shook my head and realised that this is getting more intense by the second, “I hadn’t realised so Doc, that’s the reason we have you here, to help me solve the mystery “- I said whilst walking up to her, I held out my hand and gave her hand a firm handshake.

Ruby Sinclair has spent eleven years as a servant in the Gallagher pack, hiding her true identity as the last survivor of a slaughtered Alpha bloodline. Orphaned at seven when rogues destroyed her pack, she's endured relentless torment from the Gallagher quintuplets—five Alpha heirs who've made her life a living hell. To survive, Ruby has suppressed both her wolf and her deadly secret: she's a seer, the very ability that painted a target on her family. On the eve of her eighteenth birthday, Ruby's carefully controlled world shatters. Her first shift triggers early, and all five brothers simultaneously recognise her as their fated mate. But years of abuse have left deep scars, and Ruby wants nothing more than to escape the men who tormented her—mate bonds be damned. When Dr Reeves, the pack's trusted physician, attempts to drug and deliver her to the rogues who murdered her parents, Ruby's dormant powers explode. She kills him with a thought and teleports away, terrified of what she's becoming. As the quintuplets discover recordings proving they were systematically drugged for eleven years to hate their own mate, they must somehow earn back the trust of a woman who has every reason to reject them all. But a carved symbol on a dead rogue reveals the true threat: the Shadow Alpha, an ancient corrupted Guardian who has hunted Ruby's kind for millennia. A mystical wolf spirit reveals Ruby's destiny: she's a cosmic Guardian, and her five mates are meant to be her anchors. Now Ruby must decide whether to trust the men who destroyed her, or face an unstoppable evil alone.

I stared, I gulped, my heart skipped a beat, my stomach twisted and I can feel the butterflies, a linger and a cold chill ran and travelled through my vein, flowing through my blood like lava. The man before me was heavenly, I could barely look away. From the way his dark grey orbs stared back at me to the way his jet black hair fell spikingly on his shoulder, my whole body shuddered uncontrollably from the sensation growing in my system. My eyes trailed up to his sharp jawline, his straight pointed nose, his tick, long eyebrows and eyelashes to his sinful, tempting, luscious lips. Consciously, I ran a over my lips but the sound of my dad clearing his throat pulled me out from my trace as a slightly jerked, feeling electrified. "Tristan, I went you to meet my friend, Dr Sean" My dad introduced the sexy, demigod man with that sinful body of his. I quivered again. "Sean, meet my son Tristan" Dad introduced me but my eyes remained cemented on him and I could swore I saw a spark in those dark orbs but it was gone as soon as it came, making me doubt if I really saw it. I watched him run his over his reddish, luring lips while his ran down my body, making my inside burn with a sudden fire I had never felt before...and then, he spoke.... "Nice to meet you kitten" And from that moment no, I knew it was over for my heart. From that moment I knew I was in love with MY FATHER'S FRIEND!

No nosso sexto aniversário de casamento, minhas bochechas ardem enquanto desvio do meu marido, Ethan Grant, que se inclina para me dar um beijo voraz. Empurro-o na direção da mesa de cabeceira em busca de uma camisinha. O que ele não sabe é que escondi uma surpresa ali — um teste de gravidez positivo. Já consigo imaginar seu rosto inteiro se iluminando no segundo em que encontrá-lo. Mas no instante em que sua mão vai em direção à gaveta, seu telefone toca. Seu melhor amigo, Henry Miller, fala do outro lado da linha em dinamarquês. — Sr. Grant, como foi ontem à noite? Aquele novo sofá do amor que a nossa empresa lançou está te tratando bem? Ethan solta uma risada baixa e responde em dinamarquês — A função de massagem é ótima. Me poupa de ter que fazer massagem nas costas da Sandy eu mesmo. Ele ainda me mantém puxada contra seu corpo, mas seus olhos olham através de mim, como se estivesse vendo outra pessoa. — Isso fica entre nós. Se minha esposa descobrir que dormi com a irmã dela, estou acabado. Sinto como se alguém tivesse enfiado uma faca no meu peito. O que eles não sabem é que fiz curso complementar de dinamarquês na faculdade, então entendo cada palavra. Me forço a manter a calma, mas os braços que tenho em volta do pescoço de Ethan não param de tremer. Naquele momento, paro de hesitar e decido aceitar a proposta daquele projeto de pesquisa internacional. Daqui a três dias, vou desaparecer da vida de Ethan para sempre.

Janna: ,,Du wirst mich niemals bekommen! Lieber sterbe ich" ,,Oh Baby, du hast keine Ahnung. Ich werde dich niemals sterben lassen. Das schwöre ich dir" Er lachte rau und fuhr mit seiner Fingerkuppe über die nackte Haut meines Armes. ,,Dieser Körper gehört nur mir und ich werde alles damit tun, was ich will" Ich sehe ihn hasserfüllt an. ,,Mach was du willst, ich werde dich dafür immer hassen" wimmerte ich. ,,Das sagst du so als würdest du mich nicht schon bereits hassen Baby" er beugte sich runter und drückte mir einen dominanten Kuss auf den Lippen. ,,Bisschen mehr Hass schadet doch nicht oder?" lachte er. ,,Fick dich Tyler!" Ariana: Mein Vater wollte mich zwangsverheiraten? Nur über meine Leiche! ,,KOMMT EINEN SCHRITT NÄHER UND ICH SCHNEIDE MIR DIE PULSADER AUF!" schrie ich meine Schwester, ihren Mann und ihren Schwager entgegen. ,,Es tut mir leid Ari. Wir finden eine Lösung, bitte leg das weg!" weinte meine Schwester. Ich schüttelte traurig den Kopf. ,,ICH HABE VERDAMMT NOCH MAL KEINE WAHL!" schrie ich. ,,STOPP!" schreien alle, doch ich zog das Messer durch die Haut. ,,NEEEEIIIIN!" hörte ich Janna. Ich sah nur das ganze Blut und fiel in Damons Armen. Es war vorbei. Endgültig...

Um die drei wichtigsten Männer in meinem Leben zu retten, hatte ich einen Handel mit der Mondgöttin geschlossen. Mein Leben im Tausch gegen ihre drei. Wenn ich es schaffen würde, dass auch nur einer von ihnen mich innerhalb von fünf Jahren wahrhaftig liebte, dürfte ich weiterleben. Doch als der letzte Tag der Frist kam, hegten alle drei immer noch nichts als Ablehnung für mich. Den Regeln zufolge war ich gescheitert. Ich würde sterben müssen. „Mondgöttin, darf ich noch eine letzte Nachricht senden? Einen allerletzten Versuch?“ Vielleicht aus Mitleid gewährte sie mir diesen letzten Versuch. Diese Nachricht war meine letzte Chance. Ich drückte die Sprachnachricht-Taste in unserer WhatsApp-Gruppe und kämpfte darum, meine Stimme ruhig zu halten. „Könntet ihr mich vielleicht ein kleines bisschen lieben? Ich werde wirklich sterben.“ Nach einem Moment der Stille kam ihr gnadenloses Gelächter. „Du tust echt alles, um mit Lidia um Aufmerksamkeit zu konkurrieren, oder?“ „Hör auf zu lügen. Dadurch hassen wir dich nur noch mehr.“ „Wenn du so unbedingt sterben willst, dann mach es halt.“ Mission gescheitert. Ich gab ihnen genau das, was sie wollten. Doch als ich kurz davor war zu sterben, drehten sie alle durch.
