Gold Pendant Bloodborne

I don't expect to be reunited with Reyn Aldric, the heir of Frostfang Clan, at a banquet to celebrate his ascendance. I also don't expect him to throw me out heartlessly. As I walk along a deserted street, my mind replays Reyn's mocking words. "You abandoned me for money and status, Ms. Valtara. Do you regret your actions now that I've become an heir? Throw this materialistic gold digger out! I don't want to see her anywhere near me!" And so, I'm thrown out of the banquet hall just like that. I fall to the floor. It's been five years. I didn't think he would still hate me so. Then again, it makes sense. Who wouldn't hate someone who left them when they were on the brink of death? But my dear Reyn isn't dead. He's alive and well; he can even get mad at me without worrying about it affecting his health. I'm about to die, though. I don't even deserve to be emotional. Why? Because my Heart of the Wolfkin beats in Reyn's body.

BLURB “Please,” I moaned into Darcy’s lips, trying to get away from him even though my body craved him intensely. Adrian Martinez has already lost everything, her parents, her freedom, and the child she was told never took a breath. Betrayed by the man she loved, framed for crimes she didn’t commit, and branded an ex-convict, she’s forced to start over in a world that refuses to forgive her. When she stumbles into a nanny position for a billionaire’s little girl, Adrian knows it’s her last chance at survival. But nothing could prepare her for Damien Darcy,the cold, ruthless CEO who doesn’t believe in love, not after his heart was shattered. To him, women are nothing but gold diggers. To her, men are nothing but destroyers. Yet the spark between them is undeniable… dangerous. The little girl clings to Adrian as though she’s more than a stranger. Darcy recognizes something in Adrian he’s been haunted by for years. And when desire turns into a forbidden night of passion, secrets from their pasts unravel, exposing lies, betrayals, and a truth that could bind them forever… or ruin them both.

I burned my painting right in front of the students and university staff. Thunderous applause filled the hall. Everyone thought it was some kind of performance. But my senior in the graduate program panicked. He rushed forward and grabbed my wrist, his voice tight. “Connor, have you gone mad? This is your only shot to prove yourself!” I shook him off, cold. A chance? That was his chance, right? During my past life, he stole the painting I poured my heart and soul into and entered it in the competition ahead of me. The composition, the colors, even my original technique… He copied all of it. He won the Gold Award for the National Youth Art Competition, signed with a top gallery, and basked in glory. Meanwhile, I was branded a shameless plagiarist. The insults and curses overwhelmed me completely. "Get out of the art scene already!" “A plagiarist like you should just die!” His fans stormed my studio, smashed my tools, and broke my right hand. With my world in ruins, I jumped off the studio roof. Opening my eyes again, I realized I had returned to the day my senior accused me of plagiarism.

Pendant la journée familiale à la maternelle, mon mari, Guillaume Simon a refusé d’y aller sous prétexte d’une urgence au travail et a demandé à ma fille et à moi de ne pas y aller. Ma fille, Lilas, était très déçue, ça m’a fait de la peine et j’ai décidé d’y participer avec ma fille. Dès que nous sommes arrivées, j’ai vu que mon mari tenait un petit garçon dans ses bras et tenait la main de sa meilleure amie d'enfance, Sabrina Martin. Tous les trois, parlant et riant, étaient heureux, comme une famille. Quand Guillaume nous a vues, ma fille et moi, il a légèrement froncé les sourcils avant de lâcher la main de Sabrina. « Lola, ne te méprends pas, Sabrina élève seule son enfant, ce n’est pas facile pour elle. Aujourd’hui, c’est l’anniversaire de cinq ans de son enfant, elle voulait juste que son fils ressente l'amour d'un père. » Je lui ai jeté un coup d'œil avec un sourire énigmatique, puis je me suis accroupie et j'ai pris la main de ma fille : « Chérie, dis bonjour à l’oncle. »

Lors d'un dîner de famille, ma mère m'a tendu des photos d'hommes et m'a demandé avec lequel je souhaitais contracter un mariage arrangé. Dans ma vie actuelle, au lieu de choisir la photo de Benoit, j'ai sorti une autre de mon sac. Sur cette photo figurait Charlie Gautier, l'oncle de Benoit, mais surtout, le véritable chef de famille Gautier. Ma mère a été stupéfaite. Après tout, j'étais amoureuse de Benoit pendant de nombreuses années. Pourtant, elle ignorait que dans ma vie antérieure, j'avais épousé Benoit et il rentrait rare à la maison. Je pensais qu'il avait un emploi du temps chargé et je m'étais toujours reprochée pour son indifférence. Le jour de notre vingtième anniversaire de mariage, par accident, j'avais brisé la boîte qu'il gardait précieusement sous clé depuis des années. J'avais alors découvert que la femme qu'il aimait depuis toujours était ma sœur. S'il rentrait rare à la maison, c'était simplement parce qu'il ne voulait pas me voir. Mais lors de mon mariage, voyant que Charlie et moi avons échangé les alliances, Benoit a perdu complètement la raison.

Je m'appelle Lyra. Pendant dix-huit ans, la meute Crinière-d'Argent avait été mon foyer, mais jamais ma famille. Cette nuit-là, quand ma seule amie, Sélène, avait choisi de mettre fin à sa vie — d'accomplir l'Éclipse de lune — j'avais décidé de partir. Elle m'avait montré la possibilité de s'échapper, même si cela signifiait abandonner tout ce que je connaissais. L'Alpha et la Luna qui m'avaient élevée, ainsi que ceux que j'appelais mes frères, m'avaient fait comprendre que je n'y avais jamais eu ma place ici. Leur affection avait toujours été conditionnelle, réservée à leur fille « de sang », Liliane, qui avait été retrouvée seulement un an plus tôt. Le jour où tout le monde avait oublié mon anniversaire, j'ai déclaré ma propre Éclipse. Je retournais auprès de ma véritable famille, les Griffes-de-Sang. Mais partir avait un prix. Une terreur primordiale s'éveillait dans l'ombre, prête à dévorer tous ceux que je laissais derrière moi. Ils pensaient que je fuyais. Ils n'avaient aucune idée de ce vers quoi je marchais vraiment, ni de ce que je devais devenir pour tous les sauver.
