L’Instinct du Loup Synopsis : Dans un monde où les créatures surnaturelles ne se cachent plus, l’équilibre fragile entre les espèces est maintenu par la peur… et le pouvoir. Les loups-garous dominent, les vampires complotent dans l’ombre, et les humains tentent de survivre dans ce nouvel ordre brutal. Phoebé Brown, dix-neuf ans, humaine discrète et étudiante en comptabilité, mène une vie simple entre ses études et sa famille adoptive. Jusqu’au jour où elle croise le regard de Chad, un Alpha loup-garou à la réputation sanguinaire, incarcéré pour des crimes atroces. Lui sait immédiatement qu’elle est sa destinée, son âme sœur. Mais Phoebé, fière et lucide, refuse l’idée d’un lien avec un monstre. Pourtant, un lien profond, primitif, commence malgré elle à se tisser. Et l’étau se resserre quand Hayden, un vampire assoiffé de vengeance, jure de la voir morte. Pourquoi elle ? Que cache le passé de Chad, et quel terrible secret les relie tous les trois ? Piégée entre instinct, passion et danger, Phoebé devra choisir entre fuir… ou embrasser le destin sauvage qui menace de tout emporter.

"In the kitchen, she's a firestorm. In love, she's about to burn." Youngest Perez. Billionaire. CEO. Head-turner. Maxine Avrielle Griego Perez has it all-beauty, brains, and billions. With multiple successful businesses under her name, she's unstoppable. But behind the glam life, may isang pangarap siyang matagal nang hindi natutupad: To become a certified chef. As her final requirement, she's sent to train at Moonlight Kitchenette, a cozy restaurant owned by her tito-but managed by Chef Timothy Hayden Sanders, a perfectionist known for being cold, demanding, and insanely hot. At first, clash sila. She's used to being in control. He's used to obedience. But in between the yelling, stolen glances, and late-night cooking sessions, something starts to simmer. Timothy falls-for her strength, her sass, and that laugh she tries to hide. And Maxine? She falls harder. For the first time, she lets herself feel. Then comes Cassandra. The manager who's always wanted more than professionalism. One drunken night. One betrayal. Maxine leaves-broken, silent... and pregnant. Five years later, Maxine returns as a world-class chef and single mom. Fierce, focused, and definitely not here to rekindle anything. But fate isn't done with them yet. Timothy is back, full of regret-and still in love. He wants answers. He wants her back. What he doesn't know is... he already has a piece of her. Secrets will be exposed. Old wounds reopened. And somewhere between revenge, forgiveness, and five-star meals... a second chance might be served.
