Grace Note

Meu marido, o chefe da máfia, perdeu seu primeiro amor para o suicídio. Celeste Reyes não conseguiu aceitar que ele estava se casando comigo. Desde então, Darius Sterling vive o luto por ela publicamente todos os dias, e nós nos tornamos o tipo de casal que se despreza mais do que qualquer outra pessoa. No entanto, quando a família Moretti de Eastbourne envia assassinos atrás de mim, Darius recebe a bala que era para ser minha. A bala estava envenenada. Enquanto ele jaz, fraco em meus braços, ele sussurra: — Eu salvei sua vida. Minha dívida com sua mãe está paga. Em nossa próxima vida, não vamos nos encontrar novamente. — Não quero mais te odiar. Só espero que você seja sempre aquela garota da casa ao lado. Agora, é hora de eu ficar com Celeste. E, simples assim, ele morre em meus braços. Eu choro do fundo da minha alma, mas Darius nunca mais olha para mim. Só então percebo quão tolo e infantil foi o nosso ódio durante todos esses anos. Mais tarde, após eliminar os Moretti, eu tiro minha própria vida por ele. Contudo, quando abro os olhos novamente, estou de volta aos 20 anos, o ano do nosso noivado. Eu rejeito o plano do meu pai para um casamento arranjado e escolho ir para New Verden gerenciar os negócios da família. Desta vez, ficarei longe de Darius e darei a ele e à Celeste as minhas bênçãos.

Liam and I have been together for five years. We were supposed to become mates in a month. I have been planning our honeymoon because in these five years, we have never left this city. So I prepared a $100,000 trip in advance as a mating gift for Liam. When I mentioned it to him, before I even finished my words, he interrupted me impatiently, “Who asked you to plan it? For our honeymoon, I will only give you a budget of $50. We’ll just go somewhere nearby for a night.” That night, I found out he had transferred his $1 million hunting competition bonus to his childhood friend Stella, letting her use it to buy an apartment of her own. He got really mad at me, when he saw the receipt for the $100,000 I had prepaid for the honeymoon. “Who gave you the right to spend our future money on a trip?” Liam’s parents also yelled at me, “You are just a useless Omega! You can’t even shift into a werewolf form, unlike Stella, you are not good enough for our son.” But every single cent was earned by myself from my herb business. I broke up with him without any hesitation. Liam stole that trip from me and went on it with Stella instead. Seven years later, we ran into each other at the Alpha’s castle. Liam was about to become a Warrior of the pack. Meanwhile, I was on my knees, searching for something on the floor. “Mia, you broke up with me over a $50 honeymoon fund back then. Now, you are working as a maid? You’re in this mess because of your own choices.” In fact, I was looking for my pup’s favorite toy. It had rolled under one of the tables earlier. “Is that so? Don’t you even know who the Luna of this castle is?”

A wolf howls. The forest stills… for a moment. Then, all wildlife burst into motion. Every living thing, from the smallest lizards and toads to the great brown bears and powerful mountain lions, flee. Spiders scurry to the top of their webs. Birds take flight. Squirrels leap from branch to branch. Wide-eyed deer and elk jump over brush and fallen logs. A lone wolf pauses, but tucks his tail and turns to join the escape. The wind whips through the forest, causing leaves to fall and tall pines to groan. Thundering hooves and paws make the forest floor shake. Finally, the forest stills. The wind gusts slow to a gentle and warm breeze. The wildlife seem calm once more and return to their foraging, napping, or grazing. The wolf howls again. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Amerie moved to a small town in Montana for a fresh start and to follow her dreams. Things are starting to look up and feel right again. Then, the town seems to turn upside down when someone goes missing in the forest. Some locals fear the legend of the Wolf Man may be real and claim the beast is to blame, claiming it wants revenge for mistreatment of the forest. Amerie rolls her eyes and joins the search parties, but an unfortunate fall leads her to discover more than she signed up for as she comes face to face with a large, white wolf. The secrets of the forest have been waiting to reveal themselves to her.

Dalawang taon na ang lumipas ngunit hindi pa rin nakakalimutan ni Erica ang gabing nagbago ng lahat. Isang umagang iniwan niya ang lalaking hindi niya kilala, dala ang perang kinuha mula sa pitaka nito at ang lihim na kalaunan ay magiging bunga ng isang anak na babae. Simula noon, mag-isa niyang itinaguyod ang bata, walang alam sa tunay na pagkakakilanlan ng ama. Sa unang araw niya bilang janitress sa isang mataas na gusali, inatasan siyang linisin ang opisina ng CEO sa top floor. Doon niya nabasa ang pangalang matagal nang pamilyar sa kanya, si Elias Samonte, ang ninong na hindi kailanman nagpakita sa kanyang buhay. Ngunit ang mas malaking pagkabigla ay nang harapin siya ng lalaking nasa loob ng opisina. Sa isang iglap, bumalik ang alaala ng gabing pilit niyang kinalimutan. Ang lalaking nakatayo sa harap niya ay ang estrangherong naging ama ng kanyang anak. At sa muling pagtatagpong iyon, malinaw na ang nakaraan na kanyang tinakbuhan ay hindi pa tapos sa kanya.

Después de la muerte de Harper, mi hermana gemela, mi compañero Alfa me odió durante diez años. Por una década entera fui su Luna e intenté de todas las formas posibles complacerlo. Un día, me dijo: —Si tantas ganas tienes de darme gusto, entonces muérete. Así que, cuando vi que un camión se dirigía hacia mí, ni siquiera me moví; sin embargo, nunca esperé que Noah me empujara para salvarme. Quedó herido de gravedad. Antes de morir, me miró y susurró: —Charlotte, si nunca te hubiera conocido, todo habría sido mejor. Al funeral de Noah asistieron todos los sabios y los miembros de la manada. —Debí dejar que Noah eligiera a Harper como su Luna. Me arrepiento de haberlo obligado a escogerte en ese entonces. ¡Tú lo mataste! La madre de Noah estaba deshecha por el dolor. El padre de Noah también habló: —¿Sabes? ¡Noah te salvó la vida tres veces! Era un Alfa de tan buen corazón... ¿Por qué no te moriste tú en su lugar? Todos en el funeral me miraban con reproche. Me echaron de la ceremonia; me quedé ahí, perdida y destrozada. Tres años después, con la ayuda de una bruja y su hechizo, regresé al pasado. Esta vez, tomé una decisión diferente. Pase lo que pase, nunca volveré a ser la Luna de Noah.
