Mon compagnon, ainsi que mon frère, m'ont détestée pendant douze ans. Ils croyaient toujours que j'avais volé les recherches sur les herbes médicinales de leur précieuse Sarah, et que je l'avais harcelée pendant douze ans pour la réduire au silence. Lors de ma cérémonie de marquage, ils ont dévoilé mes « crimes » au monde entier. « C'est une brute qui maltraite les membres de sa meute, et une voleuse, qui a volé les formules d'herbes de Sarah ! » Mais Sarah a souri à travers ses larmes : « La formule n'a plus d'importance. » « Du moment qu'elles peuvent sauver notre meute du poison d'argent, peu importe qui les a créées. » « Je lui ai déjà pardonné. » Elle est devenue l'ange miséricordieux de la meute. J'ai été condamnée par tous, jusqu'au jour où le loup-garou que j'avais sauvé grâce à mes remèdes a versé de l'eau argentée sur ma tête. Et dans mon désespoir, j'ai entraîné Sarah dans la mort avec moi. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais de retour en deuxième année de lycée. Sarah tenait une petite lame en argent et se tailladait le bras tout en me demandant avec un sourire : « T'as réfléchi à comment t'allais t'excuser ? » Quelque chose en moi a soudain craqué. Ma puissance d'Alpha a jailli, la forçant à se mettre à genoux. J'ai arraché la lame : « Laisse-moi te montrer ce qu'est une vraie coupure. »

« Mon Alpha, si votre Luna apprend que l'embryon transplanté dans son corps est en réalité notre ovule fécondé, et qu'elle est seulement notre mère porteuse, elle serait furieuse et se tuerait, n'est-ce pas ? », soupire Élora. Mon compagnon, Damien, l'Alpha de le meute de la Lune Argentée, est en train de malaxer les seins d'Élora. « Je ne l'aime pas non plus. Mais si elle meurt, qui s'occuperait de ma meute ? Petite pute que tu es. » Damien rit, la tirant vers l'avant et en entrant en elle brutalement. « Donc on doit garder ce secret. Quand notre enfant naîtra et qu'il deviendra Alpha, on l'aidera à rendre son dernier souffle. » Je prétends ne rien savoir de tout ça. Je donne naissance à cet enfant et je l'élève avec mes plus grands soins. Vingt-deux ans plus tard, lorsque mon fils Torin termine ses études, nous lui offrons la position d'Alpha et toute notre fortune. À la cérémonie de succession, devant les anciens, les nobles et les dirigeants des alliances, Élora entre main dans la main avec mon compagnon, tenant un rapport de test de paternité dans ses mains. « Torin est le fils biologique de Damien et moi. Maintenant, tu dois me le rendre. » Mon fils sort un petit flacon et me dit d'un ton cruel, « une sorcière m'a donné cette potion. Bois-la, romps le lien de compagnons avec mon père, et part au plus loin que tu peux. » Je souris, « pas de problème. »

There is only one mutual feeling between them i.e HATRED.What happens when these incompatible souls have to pretend to the outer world that they deeply love each other?

"Ok" she was a little taken aback by his agreement "But" the side of his lip twitched a bit "you have to fulfill all the duties of a wife" She gasps which catch his attention.

"BE MINE" he avowed "Completely and dutifully" His words held power and firmness which tremble the girl lying under him, under his mercy. "Every night I want someone to f**k. If not other women then for the coming year, it is going to be you" there was no tint of humor in his voice "Shall we start from tonight? Wifey!" ---------------------------- (Story features Mature)

​Ji Yun (孤云 - Awan Sendirian) lahir dengan noda yang disebut 'Tanda Sanghyang'—sebuah kutukan yang membuat Akar Spiritualnya lumpuh dan memberinya batas hidup kultivasi yang singkat. Ia adalah yang terbuang dari Sekte Pedang Gerbang Utara, yang hanya menganggapnya sebagai pelayan, bukan murid. Di dunia Xianxia yang didominasi oleh kekuasaan dan tingkat kultivasi, kelemahan ini adalah hukuman mati. Dalam upaya putus asa untuk memperpanjang hidupnya (Ticking Clock), Ji Yun menemukan warisan tak terduga: sisa-sisa kesadaran seorang alkemis kuno yang pernah dikutuk oleh Kaisar Surgawi karena menentang Dao Agung. Alkemis ini mewariskan kepadanya pengetahuan terlarang: seni kultivasi Primal Qi yang melampaui energi Qi normal dan filosofi Taois kuno tentang penyempurnaan tiga harta: Jing (Esensi), Qi (Energi), dan Shen (Roh). ​Perjalanan Ji Yun dimulai bukan hanya untuk mencari kekuatan, tetapi untuk mencari kebenaran di balik kutukannya. Ia menemukan bahwa leluhurnya dituduh mencuri fragmen dari Sembilan Kuali Surga (Tripods of the Firmament)—artefak kuno yang mampu mengontrol energi kosmik Tiga Alam. ​Dipaksa untuk meninggalkan sektenya dan melarikan diri dari pengejaran Sekte Naga Giok (yang secara diam-diam bekerja untuk Surga), Ji Yun harus menaiki Tangga Kultivasi dengan kecepatan yang menakutkan, mengatasi Turnamen Regional dan menjelajahi Gua Warisan kuno. Ia berkonflik dengan Kaisar Surgawi dan birokrasi langit, yang memandang semua kultivator sebagai subjek yang harus tunduk pada Wu Wei (Non-Tindakan) mereka sendiri. Ji Yun harus memilih: menerima takdirnya dan mati damai sesuai Mandat Langit, atau menentang seluruh tatanan kosmik untuk menulis ulang Dao (Jalur) miliknya sendiri.

After five years of ride-or-die love, Meredith Martinez got left at the altar—Alden Ashford bailed mid-ceremony to run after the girl who'd pulled the suicide card, like, 99 times. That was the moment it clicked: she was never gonna melt that ice block he called a heart. So she cut the cord. Ghosted the past. Moved on. What she didn't plan on? A wild, tipsy hookup with the one guy she should've never touched—her brother's sworn enemy, Hayden Harrington. At sunrise, she tried to sneak out. One ankle grab later, she was back in bed with his voice all low and dangerous against her skin, fingers brushing a bite mark on his neck. "Meredith, you hit it and quit it? Left this mark and just gonna dip?" *** Hayden Harrington was basically elite royalty—icy, ruthless, totally off-limits. What nobody knew? He'd been secretly obsessed with his rival's little sister for years. After that night? Dude snapped. Full-blown obsession mode. He even bought out an entire town just to keep her close. His shirt wide open, abs out, arms holding a tipsy Meredith. "Meredith," he breathed, voice low, "wanna touch? Feels really good." She blinked. Speechless. Where'd Mr. Ice King go? He smirked. "That guy's for show. You get the real me."

"I will never fall in love with you" I shot at him angrily and spat on his face. "Undress yourself, don't make me repeat myself" He ordered, his menacing gaze hot enough to burn anything he set his eyes on. His hand roughly gripped onto my throat, causing me to suffocate under his torments. "Please stop, let me go" I quivered fearfully and cried out. He released and pushed me against the wall, releasing the knotted shackles to bound my hands. "Turn around and take off this gown" he ordered. Reluctantly I turned around and began to unzip my gown shamefully. Has my life come to this? All because of my mother I have to suffer in the hands of this man. Leila, the daughter of a gambling mother had an accidental one-night stand two years ago with a stranger who happened to be the Don of one of Europe's most dreaded mafia gangs. Just one-night taste of the dark-haired lady and Stefano was already head over heels for Leila. She was undeniably the sweetest girl he had ever tasted and from that day on, he swore to get Leila for himself no matter what. The opportunity to get her came when Leila fell into debt from her mother's gambling. Stefano proposed a contract saying he would pay off the debts if Leila's mother agreed to give off her daughter as his mistress. To her very dismay, her mother agreed and signed the contract but Leila refused to ever submit herself to him, loathing him and her mother for betraying her and selling her off to a crime lord. But he was adamant and determined to win her heart and prove to her that he would earn her love. Can Leila tame the devil in him or die whilst trying?

El día de mi boda, mi hermana menor regresó al país de improviso. Mis papás, mi hermano y mi prometido me dejaron sola y se fueron al aeropuerto a recibirla. Mientras ella subía a sus redes una foto grupal, presumiendo que todo mundo la adoraba, yo marqué una y otra vez: me colgaron todas las llamadas. El único que contestó fue mi prometido: —No hagas un drama; la boda se puede volver a celebrar. Ese día me convirtieron en el hazmerreír de la boda que tanto había esperado. La gente señalaba, se burlaba, y yo tragué en seco. Respiré hondo, arreglé todo yo sola y, en mi diario, escribí un número nuevo: 99. Era la decepción número noventa y nueve. Entendí que no iba a seguir esperando su amor. Completé la solicitud para estudiar en el extranjero y empaqué mi maleta. Todos creyeron que, por fin, me había calmado. No sabían que ya me iba.
