How Not To Die

"Don't do this to me please, why are you treating me like this?" She asked him but he ignored her and looked away. She attempted to draw closer to him but he gave her a stern look "Don't you dare touch me! I can't love you Lisa, how many times do I have to tell you this? I don't want you coming anywhere near me ever again....I'm in love with your sister and you know well that our wedding is few months from now. Why are you bent on spoiling our happiness?" "Stop saying that! I met you first, remember? Why do you have to treat me like trash because of her? I love you Dave, my life will not be complete without you! I've always dreamed of carrying your baby! But now you despise me because of her that stole you away from me!" She said as tears rolled down her cheeks. He couldn't utter any more word till he saw her beginning to undress while getting closer to him. Damn! She was going to seduce him with her skimpy dress that revealed too much of her huge breasts, bulging out of it. "What are you trying to do Lisa? Are you insane?" He retorted, drawing away from her reach. "Yes I'm crazy Dave, I'm crazy for you!" She replied as she got further closer to him within touching distance and before he could utter any more word or take further action against her, her lips were pressed forcefully against his as her huge breasts crashed against his hard chest!

Kennedy war ein Mensch, der in die unglaubliche Welt des Übernatürlichen hineingezogen wurde, als ihre Eltern bei einem ungewöhnlichen Autounfall starben und die beste Freundin ihrer Mutter sie bei sich aufnahm. Beth, die beste Freundin ihrer Mutter, war die Luna des Silbersichel-Rudels. Kennedy kannte Beth, deren Ehemann James und deren Sohn Jeremiah schon ihr ganzes Leben lang. Doch sie dachte immer, das Leben in einem Rudel wäre etwas, wovon sie nur hören würde. Alpha und Luna verschwiegen Kennedy nicht die Gefahren ihrer Welt für einen Menschen wie sie. Jeremiah setzte sich dafür ein, Kennedy zu beschützen, und half ihr, das Trauma des Unfalls zu bewältigen. Man brachte Kennedy die Rudelbräuche bei, und sie wurde von fast allen Rudelmitgliedern ins Herz geschlossen. So lernte sie den Wert der Rudelverbindung, die Kampfweisen der Krieger und den Respekt vor der Hierarchie in der Wolfskultur. Sie wurde eine äußerst fähige Kriegerin, selbst mit nur menschlicher Kraft und menschlichen Sinnen. Begleitet Kennedy auf ihrer Reise, auf der sie Gefährtenschaft, Liebe und Freundschaft erlebt – und gegen eine Gefährtenbindung kämpft, die sie nicht will, weil sie ihre eigenen Ziele und Träume behindert. __ Ryker war der junge, bekannte und gefürchtete Alpha des Dunkelmond-Rudels. Er kümmerte sich um seine Rudelmitglieder mit harter Liebe und eiserner Faust. Er hatte gesehen, was passierte, wenn Alphas ihre Gefährtin fanden. Es machte sie schwach und lenkte sie ab. Viele waren durch ungeeignete Gefährtinnen von ihrem Weg abgebracht worden. Er zog es vor, allein zu bleiben, als sich von einer anderen kontrollieren zu lassen.

My husband, Jacob Morris, wrongly believed that I had pushed the woman he loved down the stairs. So, he locked me in the basement to make me reflect on my actions. He hired people to punish me, trying to break my spirit. I suffered inhumane torture. My tendons were cut, and my face was disfigured. Four years later, he finally remembered me and let me out. But by then, I was too broken to love him anymore.

Seven years ago, I turned my back on my powerless fated mate, Soren, and chose a powerful Alpha instead. Now, I’m dying alone in this shitty apartment with seven days to live. The Moon's Glow is fading inside me. Without the Final Rite, my soul will be chained to this earth, a ghost doomed to an eternity of torment. And no Alpha will perform it for me. Coughing up another mouthful of blood, I dialed the one number I swore I’d never touch again. Soren. The mate I rejected. Now, the most powerful Alpha in the North. I begged him for the Final Rite. Moments later, his engine screamed down my street. But the boy I once knew was gone. The man staring back at me now held nothing but pure, undiluted hatred in his eyes. "Well, well. Look what we have here," he sneered, his voice dripping with venom. "The fallen princess. When are you going to finally drop dead? The second your heart stops, I’m dumping your corpse in the Feral Lands for the scavengers."

Dario Morello came from old money in Santria City—but his family was cursed. Every guy in that bloodline dropped dead before twenty-five, like something sucked the life out of them. The only way out? Marry someone with a rare fertility gene. In my last life, my adopted sister Serena jacked my wedding dress and took my place at the altar. I exposed her right there in front of everyone. She became Santria's biggest joke. Then she killed herself. My parents said I was heartless. Cut me off without blinking. Dario? He hated me too. On the anniversary of Serena's death, he locked me in a basement, strapped me with explosives, and snapped, "That fertility gene lie? You made it up for clout and cash. Serena was pregnant with my kid. You killed them both. So now—you're going with her." Next thing I knew, I was waking up on the morning of the wedding. This time? I helped Serena with the veil and wished them a perfect life.

For three agonizing years, my mother struggled with kidney failure. Finally, after all the waiting and the constant dialysis, she was next in line for a transplant. Hope seemed so close. But then, my husband, Zachary Levi, an esteemed nephrology professor, did the unforgivable. He surreptitiously gave his lover's mother the kidney that was intended for my mother. He said almost dismissively, "Ella's mother couldn't wait any longer. Your mother's been on dialysis for so long, she's not going to die anytime soon." Later, my mother passed away. I called Zachary one final time. Yet, it was a woman who answered. "Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?" I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me. "It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."

When the half-mile sprint test is about to begin, Quiana Sullivan, the class president, and I have applied to be exempted from it. My own mother, who's the homeroom teacher of my class, approves Quiana's application with a smile. But she then throws mine to the floor. "You're having a chest pain, you say? I can't believe you're able to come up with such lies just to avoid the half-mile sprint! I'd have known if you had a heart condition! "Quiana is weak by nature, not to mention she's on her period right now, so she can't handle the agony. What about you, hmm? You've always been perfectly healthy, yet now you're telling me that you're suffering from heart pain? "Don't go around embarrassing me just because you want to slack off! I don't want others claiming that I'm being biased toward my own child! As long as you're still alive and kicking, you must finish the half-mile course no matter what!" Left without a choice, I can only return to the field. The cold wind makes me feel even dizzier now. My heart keeps contracting uncontrollably against my will. Suddenly, it just stops pumping. The next thing I know, I collapse onto the grassy field heavily. When my consciousness is about to flicker to darkness, my mom finally walks over to me. But she merely kicks my arm with a frown on her face, and her tone remains glacial. "Stop playing dead. Get up right now." She doesn't realize that I can never open my eyes ever again. Isn't this great, Mom? No one will ever claim that you're biased toward your own child. I've used my life to prove how fair and just you are. You must be happy now, right?

What if you really were transported to a fantasy world and expected to kill monsters to survive?No special abilities, no OP weapons, no status screen to boost your stats. Never mind finding the dragon's treasure or defeating the Demon Lord, you only need to worry about one thing: how to stay alive.All the people summoned form parties and set off on their adventures, leaving behind the people who nobody wants in their group.Story of my life, thinks Colin.

In the split second when the research lab explodes, my boyfriend, Thomas Bastion, dashes to Melody Harper, who is standing furthest from the blast zone. He shields her from the impact with his own body. When the sounds of the explosion stop, the first thing he does is carry Melody to the hospital. I'm lying on the floor. My body is covered in fresh blood, but he doesn't spare a single glance at me. Thomas has taken care of Melody for the past 18 years. His heart is filled with nothing but her. There's no space for anyone else. I only survived because my colleagues rushed me to the hospital. When I am discharged from the ICU, I call my teacher, Louis Carpenter. Both my eyes are swollen from how much I've been crying. "Mr. Carpenter, I've made up my mind. I'm willing to join you for the confidential research. It's fine if we have to leave in one month. I don't care that I'll be unable to contact anyone for the next five years." The wedding ceremony that I have been dreaming of is supposed to take place in a month's time. However, I no longer want to get married.

„Alles ist gut, Schatz.“ Das ist es, was Steven ihr seit Monaten sagt. Aber heute Abend, auf der Feier zu ihrem Hochzeitstag, wird Shirley das Gefühl einfach nicht los, dass etwas ganz und gar nicht stimmt. Ihr Ehemann, einst so aufmerksam und präsent, wirkt jetzt fern und unnahbar. Seine ausweichenden Blicke, sein gezwungenes Lächeln ... und diese eine SMS, die er so krampfhaft zu verbergen versuchte. „Wir können so nicht weitermachen. Du musst ihr die Wahrheit sagen.“ Die Nachricht leuchtet auf seinem Handy auf und Shirley spürt, wie ihre Welt aus den Fugen gerät.

Und Shirley, das einstige Wunderkind, das ihre glänzende Karriere für die Familie aufgegeben hat, steht kurz davor, mit einer Wahrheit konfrontiert zu werden, die alles zu zerstören droht. Verrat, vergrabene Geheimnisse und unmögliche Entscheidungen – Shirley wird in ein Labyrinth der Täuschung gestoßen, in dem jede neue Enthüllung sie einer herzzerreißenden Entscheidung näherbringt: Bleiben und verzeihen ... oder alles aufs Spiel setzen, um sich selbst und ihr Leben zurückzuerobern? „Manchmal befreit dich die Wahrheit nicht. Sie zerreißt dich.“
