Evie Zamora Thirteen

Evie Callahan never believed in monsters—until one dragged her off the street and locked her in a world she didn’t know existed. A world where alphas rule through blood and fear. Where her name means nothing, but her blood means everything. Turns out, she’s not just human. She’s rare. Valuable. And every pack wants to own her. Especially him. Lucian Calder. Alpha of the Calder pack. Vicious. Controlling. Dangerous. And he says she’s his mate. His rules are brutal, his touch addictive, and the longer she stays, the harder it is to tell if she’s a prisoner… or truly his mate. Evie swore she’d never belong to anyone. Then the second Alpha finds her. Older. Colder. And he claims she was never meant for Lucian—that the bond they share is a lie, and that he’s the one she was born for. Now she’s caught between two powerful rivals, hunted by the council, and stalked by another. Both Alphas want her. Both would kill for her. Both are willing to burn the world for her. And neither is letting go.

"Do you always get this angry when others play with your dolls?" "No, just when it comes to you. You're my favorite doll." * Cara Morelli gets the heartbreak of her life when she finds out that her boyfriend is a recruiter for an illegal sex club, but that is after he abducts and dumps her there. As fiery as she is stubborn, she won't go down easily. After maiming, and nearly killing a client- on purpose- she is punished; murdered. But by some stroke of providence, she reincarnates inside the body of a woman known as Agent Thirteen, who belonged to an elite team of female assassins. And the Boss? A ruthless mafia Don widely known as Leone "the devil" Andreotti. It takes Cara a while to get used to the fact that prior to the time when she swapped bodies with Agent Thirteen, the assassin had signed her freedom off to Leone as part of the contract to be his assassin... to be used to kill targets until she scored him a hundred kills. But now, Leone wants more than a hundred kills from Cara... Ever since she blatantly disrespected him. And now that she is a trained assassin, is this the answer to her long-standing quest for revenge against her betraying boyfriend and the club, or will it embroil her deeper in a deadly obsession with the most dangerous man in the city? You're right. It's both. * "I'm tired. Fucking kill me already." "No, I want to wear you out. That's the only way I'll enjoy it. I have preferences, Angel." * "If you run, he will chase you." "If I don't, he will kill me." "Will he?" The look she gives me is knowing. I roll my eyes. "Of course he will." Right?

Toutes ces années, j'ai toujours cherché l'ombre d'Élise en elle. » C'était alors qu'elle a compris qu'elle n'avait été qu'un simple substitut. Ce soir-là, elle a composé ce numéro qu'elle n'avait pas appelé depuis longtemps. « Allô, papa, j'accepte de rentrer à la maison pour le mariage arrangé. » Plus tard, Théo a revu ce visage qu'il avait tant désiré lors d'un banquet, et quand il a appris la véritable identité de Léa, il a complètement perdu la tête… Le jour où Léa avait refusé le mariage arrangé et avait quitté la maison, Alex Dubois s'était tenu devant la fenêtre, faisant tourner son vin rouge, un regard indéchiffrable dans les yeux, « Léa, un jour tu reviendras sagement à mes côtés. » On disait qu'Alex, l'héritier de la famille la plus puissante de Rivélys, était froid, austère et indifférent aux femmes, et Léa l'avait cru sans réserve.
