Evolução

No concurso de poções, minha irmã adotiva, Célia, tornou-se famosa graças à poção que roubou de mim. Eu jamais poderia imaginar que aquela competição serviria para escolher a esposa do jovem senhor da Tribo Serpente, um homem cruel, feio e naturalmente estéril. Naquela mesma noite, a Tribo Serpente enviou uma carta de casamento, exigindo que a criadora da poção se tornasse esposa do jovem senhor. Ao saber disso, meu noivo entrou em pânico e imediatamente consumou o Pacto de Almas com Célia. Depois de consumado o ato, Célia veio, rebolando a cintura, exibir para mim o Pacto em forma de Lobo em suas costas. — Agora o seu noivo é meu, irmãzinha. E agora, o que você vai fazer? Faltam só três dias para você completar vinte e cinco anos. Se ninguém se casar com você, será sorteada para aqueles Bestiais mais velhos e violentos, que batem nas esposas! Ela se enganou. Eu ainda tinha outra escolha. Procurei meus pais, que estavam na sala tentando resolver as confusões deixadas por Célia. — Se ela não vai se casar com o jovem senhor da Tribo Serpente, eu me caso!

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.

No terceiro ano do meu casamento com Leonardo Carvalho, recebi de repente um vídeo enviado por Cristiane Carvalho, irmã adotiva dele. Quando abri, vi Leonardo usando a gravata que eu havia acabado de lhe dar para amarrar a própria irmã adotiva na cabeceira da cama. Ela estava completamente nua sob o corpo dele, gemendo sem parar e chamando-o de "meu amor". Depois, os dois ficaram abraçados, colados um ao outro. Cristiane, manhosa, enroscou os braços no pescoço dele e reclamou: — Mano, aquele anel que você me deu, eu não gostei. Leva de volta e dá para a sua esposa. Diz que é presente de aniversário da irmãzinha, tá? No dia seguinte, eu me sentei sozinha em um restaurante elegante. Fiquei encarando a cadeira vazia à minha frente, perdida em pensamentos. De repente, o assistente apareceu empurrando um bolo enorme na minha direção. — O Chefão teve um imprevisto e me mandou entregar seu presente de aniversário. Dentro da caixa estava justamente o anel que a irmã adotiva dele havia recusado. Logo depois, novas fotos chegaram ao meu celular. Leonardo estava no hospital acompanhando Cristiane, dedicado como um marido perfeito. Eu não chorei. Não fiz escândalo. Apenas assinei calmamente os papéis do divórcio e pedi que começassem a preparar um casamento. — Senhora, em nome dos noivos... Quem devo colocar? — Leonardo e Cristiane. Sete dias depois, eu faria o mundo inteiro ver o quanto o reservado e inflexível Padrinho sabia se divertir quando estava sozinho com a própria irmã.

This is a book about Love, the love that lives between you, love that is hard to find, harder to understand, the love we were born with, waiting patiently between our ribcages, waiting to be recognized, to be seen, the love we should have for ourselves, the love that does not fade.

I never wanted a man. I wanted a baby. After years of failed treatments, a cheating fiancé, and a body that kept betraying me, I made a decision. I would do this alone. No man, no heartbreak, no complications. Just me, a clinic, and a dream I refused to let die. Except the clinic made a mistake. One catastrophic, life-altering mistake. The sample I was inseminated with didn't belong to the anonymous donor I selected. It belonged to Dominic Sinclair, billionaire, ruthless businessman, and the most terrifyingly beautiful man I have ever seen in my life. And now I'm carrying his child. He finds out before I've even processed the shock myself. I expect lawyers. Paperwork. A cold corporate transaction. What I don't expect is him standing in my apartment doorway, silver eyes burning with something that looks nothing like indifference telling me that no child of his will be born outside his pack's territory. Pack. That's when I realized Dominic Sinclair isn't just any billionaire. He's a werewolf. Campaigning to be Alpha King of the entire North American packs. And I, a human, broke, still-heartbroken, carrying his heir, have just become the most dangerous variable in his entire political rise. He says he wants to protect me. His wolf says something else entirely. And the way he looks at me, like I'm something he wants to consume slowly, makes me terrified of one thing above all else. That I might let him.

lunch went by pretty quickly, and we were back to classes soon enough. I'd like to forget to get a book out of my locker, so I went to go quickly and went to get it. I was leaning against the locker next to mine as I quickly scanned my schedule on my locker door. When warm air fanned the side of my face. "Move" being the excellent human being I am, I jumped out of fright, flinging the heavy calculus textbook in my hands backward. I hear a grunt and turn to find the person hunched over as they hold part of their face "Oh God! I'm so sorry!" I panicked. and then he looked up. the first thing I noticed was his short, dark hair. it looked so smooth, and 1 almost reached out to play with it. My eyes trailed down to his strong jaw line, down to his broad shoulders. I didn't even realize that I was biting my lip as I further inspected the Adonis before me. His arm flexed, bringing my attention to the amber eye he was now covering It was him. Six. He is the most popular and dangerous guy in school. And I'd managed to injure him with my calculus textbook.

“Oh my darling Uncle”. I said while hugging him as he was backing me. “Uncle?”. A different voice asked and it seems to come from the person I'm hugging. He turned around with me in his arms and I stared into his eyes. Dark eyes. Uncle Max's eyes are blue, like mine. I let go of him immediately like I had been burned and blushed furiously. “Uhm, sorry. I thought you… were my uncle”. I told him. A chuckle brought my attention back to his handsome face. “Hello cutie, why do you think your uncle is here?” He said, his voice sending shivers down my body. *** Happiness Matthews, a 19-year-old college freshman, thought she had everything figured out when she left her small Texas town for the bright lights of California.
