Minha irmã e eu éramos gêmeas. Nascemos do mesmo ventre… E fomos marcadas pela mesma sentença: uma grave doença nos rins. Depois de anos esperando por um milagre, dois rins compatíveis finalmente surgiram. A chance de salvar duas vidas. Mas, diante do meu noivo, ela chorou, implorou e pediu os dois só pra ela.

Ela só quer viver como uma pessoa normal. Por que está sendo tão egoísta? Espera o próximo rim, não pode? Mas o que ele não sabia… É que eu não teria tempo. Porque eu… Já estava morrendo.

I was already halfway across the room before I knew what I was doing. What kind of people had she been surrounding herself with if she thought that she wasn't attractive? Hell, she was gorgeous, delicious, downright perfect in every way. I needed to show her what I saw. What she was in my eyes. I couldn't help myself. I had Genevieve up against the wall in a blink of an eye, a growl escaping my throat and mixing with her surprised gasp. Her hands still clung to the robe, trying to make herself seem smaller. I slipped one hand underneath, along her collarbone, while the other slid along her neck, to the back of her head where I gripped her loose bun and pulled it taught. "Babygirl, you're more than just attractive. You have my c*ck aching every time I set my eyes on you.” My voice was a distorted growl, but I know she understood every word I said. I leaned my body in against hers to accentuate my point, and Genevieve's adorable mouth widened with a surprised gasp. I took that opportunity to claim what I'd been dreaming off since the moment I set my eyes on her. I dipped my head and locked my lips on hers, and realized in that sweet, blissful moment, that I had f*cked up. *** Genevieve Blake was a well-known, erotic romance author.

"Stop it, Ethan! Stop doing this to me!" I wished I could utter those words, but my body betrayed me. His touch alone made me lose all connection with my senses. Internally, I screamed for freedom as his seductive kisses rendered me tongue-tied. I was tired of being treated like a mere sex toy by this man, yet my body continually danced to the rhythm of his waist. I let him have his way, gasping softly, my lips defying all moral sanity. After a few rounds of pleasure, he pushed himself off me, put on his pants, and walked out the door as if I meant nothing. The realization hit me hard: I shouldn't have let this happen. I should have stood my ground this time and not succumbed to his wishes. I picked up my clothes, the last pieces of dignity left in me. "Ethan!" I yelled, chasing after him. "Please wait!" "What is it, woman?" he halted, looking disgusted by my presence. "We're married, for crying out loud! You can't keep treating me like trash. Tell me what I did wrong. Tell me if there's anything I should change about myself. I'm willing to do anything, please, Ethan. To make this marriage work, I'm willing to do whatever you want. Just don't pick her over me again!" I sobbed, halfway on my knees, begging with my hands clenched to his trousers. --- Elizabeth Douglas, a young heiress, finds herself falling for her father's driver, Ethan Haynes.

No dia em que sofri um aborto espontâneo e uma hemorragia grave, meu marido postou no Instagram Stories a foto dos pezinhos de um recém-nascido. Legenda: "Bem-vindo, meu anjinho. O papai sempre vai te proteger." Com as mãos trêmulas, liguei para ele: — Perdi o bebê... Você pode vir ao hospital? Do outro lado da linha, o choro de um bebê se misturava à voz impaciente dele: — Nesse caso, cuide-se. A Isabela acabou de dar à luz e precisa de mim. Não posso sair. — E já que o seu morreu, não tente disputar atenção com quem está vivo, entendeu? Ele desligou abruptamente. Sozinha na cama do hospital, desabei em prantos. Depois de enxugar as lágrimas, disquei o número de Lucas Soares, o arquirrival dele. — Case comigo. Todo o Grupo Lima será seu. Só quero que você derrube o Felipe Moreira. Aceita?
