« Papa ! » ai-je crié en tapant du pied sur le carrelage. « Je ne veux pas épouser Vann Morego ! Tu te rends compte qu'il est père célibataire ? » « Je le sais, Agnellino », a dit mon père d'une voix sévère. « Mais ce mariage est dans l'intérêt de notre entreprise. Nous avons besoin de l'aide de Vann, et il ne peut nous aider que si tu es mariée avec lui. » « Mais ce même homme a dix-neuf ans de plus que moi, Père ! » « Peu importe, Rella. Ce qui compte, c'est que tu accomplisses ton devoir d'épouse et que tu prennes soin de lui et de ses enfants. » ************ Dès le début, cela m'a semblé anormal. Pour moi, cela semblait totalement anormal, mais dans le monde de la mafia, ce n'était rien d'extraordinaire. Les mariages arrangés étaient monnaie courante dans les familles mafieuses, alors je m'y attendais. Mais lorsque j'ai appris que mon mari serait Vann Morego, le chef mafieux le plus redouté, j'ai eu un profond sentiment de mort. Notre mariage arrangé posait de nombreux problèmes. Il était père célibataire de deux enfants, et notre différence d'âge était importante : dix-neuf ans. Comment allais-je survivre en tant que mère et épouse soudaine d'un chef mafieux de dix-neuf ans mon aîné ?

At three months pregnant, I was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy. My husband, a doctor, was overwhelmed with worry, pulling every string he could to arrange surgery and remove the baby. "As long as you're okay, it doesn’t matter if we don’t have our own child. We can always adopt. I can't lose you, Evelyn!" Heartbroken, I blamed myself for being useless, for failing to carry our child, and for disappointing my husband. But then, I accidentally saw his chat messages with another woman on the phone. "Don’t worry, I already told her she had an ectopic pregnancy." "I’ll have her sign the adoption papers soon, then find a way to bring you into our home." "Asher is my only son. I will make sure he inherits everything I have!" That was when I realized that the husband I loved so deeply had long since built another family behind my back.

“You belong to me now.” A promise. A threat. A hunger. Kael Volkov is the Alpha of Shadows—merciless, cold-blooded, a king carved from power and violence. His command is law, his body a weapon, his touch a sentence. He needs only one thing to secure his throne, a Luna who rules just like him. He never expected his wolf to snarl for a trembling Omega hiding in the dark. Rebecca has survived by disappearing—an orphaned shadow masking her silver-white blood, the last heir of a murdered lineage. The monster who destroyed her world sits on the throne. And his son, Kael,the Alpha who drags her into his chambers and chains her to his presence is every whispered nightmare she grew up fearing. She expects pain. Control. Domination. What she doesn’t expect is the bond. Every breath shared becomes a battle her fear against his hunger, her defiance against his command, her trembling innocence against his ruthless desire to claim, teach, consume. He tells himself she is property. His silence. His servant. His obedience to shape with touch and punishment. But his wolf knows the truth before he does, The girl he caged is his fated Luna. The fallen princess destined to dethrone him. And when her silver fire rises, Kael must choose between the crown he bleeds for, or the woman he would burn the world to keep. Dark desire. Forbidden bloodlines. A bond born in shadows and sealed in heat.

The happiness of finding out that my mate was actually my first love was soon clouded by gloom because she was the sister of the alpha of our worst enemy. Is our love going to conquer all?

Katherine I thought he loved me. I truly believed no one could love me more than my king, the ruler of witches, Acan. I believed my marriage was full of love, that nothing could tear us apart.

But while my dreams come true—Katherine in my arms—she is far from satisfied.

When my wife brought her lover home for the fifth time, I decided enough was enough. I said nothing, not a word of complaint or protest. Instead, I superglued the windows shut and locked the bedroom door from the outside. From the bedroom came the muffled sounds of her little escapade, breathless and feverish, carrying through the walls like a shameful melody no one asked to hear. Calmly, I sat in the living room, picked up the phone, and called my mother-in-law. "Jessie," I said, putting on my best tone of urgency, "it's bad—real bad! Your daughter's locked herself in the bedroom and says she's gonna end it all!"

Carlo La Rosa is the Don of the La Rosa family. As for me, I'm just a plaything who's been delivered to his bed in order to clear off my family's debts. For the next three years, Carlo vents his carnal urges on me anyhow he wants. He doesn't do any foreplay. In fact, he doesn't even turn off the lights.
