I'm A Stick Beside Him

"Was it so hard for you all to accept me without thinking about my second gender? You abandoned me to the very moment you discovered that I'm an omega. You gave me away even though I am your son! I share the same genes, flesh and blood as your daughter, and we are twin! And yet you turn your back on me. I will make sure to take everything back that every single one of you took from me. You will all regret everything that you did to me."Eiji was the only son of the Suzuki Jiro and Mira, the twin brother of their daughter Melissa. For so many years that he had lived, he had always wondered why was it easy for his biological parents to give him away. Not even a little bit of love was given to him the moment they met him again after so many years. He only wanted to love the one that was destined to him but just like parents, his supposed destined alpha hide their relationship. The only thing that could bind them together was a single bit in the neck of eiji and yet it was never given to him. A one sided love as everyone could tell, an omega that was never loved by his destined alpha. Will he be able to love again after so much painful love that he had gone through? Will there be somebody who will love and accept him whole-heartedly without any care of their second gender.

On Thanksgiving, my husband Steven Mandel showed up with another woman. Not just anyone—Fiona Osborne, his first love. She had Alzheimer's and only remembered him. And yeah, he said she was moving in. Steven's eyes were ice. "Erica, I stayed away from Fiona out of duty. But I'm not wasting what time I have left without her." Happy 50th anniversary to me. No gift—just a slap-in-the-face love confession. Maya, my daughter-in-law, tried to talk some sense into him, bless her. Then Anton—my own son—cut in. "Mom already kept Dad away from Fiona for years. She's tied ME to you for half my life. Now Dad just wants to take care of the woman he loves—what's so wrong with that?" Steven stepped in front of Fiona like some kind of hero. "Anton's right. Erica, I let you play the wife role for decades. Now, I want to be with the woman I truly love. "If you can't handle that, let's just get a divorce." I stood there, frozen. I'd walked away from a powerhouse law career for this family after we had Anton. I thought I had given everything, and in their eyes, I would be a perfect wife and a perfect mother. But today made it clear—I was never enough. No matter how much I gave, it was never going to be enough. I turned to Maya. She was crying. "You wanna get divorced together?"

Aimee: I had it all: a loving family, a good education, and a handsome boyfriend who was about to propose.

That same night, I discovered that I was mated to Alpha Logan, the ruthless leader of the Ridge Pack that haunted everyone's nightmare. Logan: I didn't give a damn about the coronation of the new Alpha of the Crescent Pack. I was only there to sign a peace treaty and get out of there. I had enough problems of my own: a curse that had made me numb, and a mate that eluded me. But then I smelled something that changed everything. A sweet and intoxicating scent that stirred something in me. She was my mate, and she was mine. And I would stop at nothing to claim her. Even if it meant starting a war.

Si Cherry, isang matapang at determinadong crew member na may fiancée na nangangalang David, ay umuusok sa galit matapos ang magulong araw sa trabaho. Sa isang aksidenteng pagkikita, napagkamalan niyang gigolo ang isang gwapong lalaki na tila walang pakialam sa mundo—si Jal.

Pipiliin ba ni Cherry ang responsibilidad ng pangako kay David, o ang tawag ng pusong nagsisigaw para kay Jal?
