If I Keep My Heart Out Of Sight

After failing the mission, the System gave me one final chance, and to succeed, I had to give birth to a child. The System promised that if the baby were born safely, it would reveal the truth to my target and give me one last glimmer of hope. However, six months into my pregnancy, just when things seemed stable, I was dragged onto an operating table in the middle of the night by my husband and family. My husband stopped the anesthesiologist from giving me any pain relief. “Let her feel the pain,” he said coldly. “We need to keep the kidneys as fresh as possible.” My parents instructed the doctor to draw my blood. “She’s the same blood type as our precious girl. Let’s take some for backup.” Even my childhood friend, the boy who had always been by my side, was the one to slice open my abdomen.  They wanted my kidneys to save my sister, who was dying from kidney failure. No one believed I was pregnant. No matter how much I begged, they went ahead with the operation, tearing me open. The baby couldn’t survive, and I died on that operating table. However, as my soul began to fade away, something strange happened. Those who had murdered me—my husband, my parents, my so-called friend—they all lost their minds.

If there was one thing that added a whole rainbow of color into Gerard black-or-white view of life, it was when he first set eyes on Cindy and fell in love with her that same second, just as she was falling in love with him. Finding out about love at first sight that took place in a city photo-walk event which both lovebirds didn’t want to attend. It’d been a long day and one didn’t like taking photos and the other did not even own a camera.

She loved him in silence. From the moment she could remember, Sophia Thomas had watched Daniel Harper — her older brother Nathan’s golden-boy best friend — from afar. He was everything: charming, confident, kind. And to him? She was just “Nathan’s little sister.” At fifteen, she tried not to care. Tried not to notice how his smile lit up a room or how his laughter made her heart race. But when Daniel comes home from college and agrees to tutor her in math, Sophia realizes something painful: She never stopped loving him. As they spend more time together, buried feelings begin to surface — on both sides. What starts as stolen glances and quiet longing turns into late-night talks, shared secrets, and moments neither of them expected. But there are rules: - Don’t fall for your brother’s best friend. - Don’t let him see you as anything more than family. - Don’t believe he’ll ever feel the same. Too late.

At graduation, I invited my classmates to attend my engagement party, but what I didn’t expect was the total meltdown one of my classmates had when she saw my engagement photos. She strutted over, full of herself, and demanded that I take off my dress so she could use it to polish her shoes. I blinked in confusion, thinking she must have lost her mind. I laughed and suggested she head over to the campus clinic to get checked out. Instead, she exploded, pointing a finger right in my face as she started yelling. “You leech! How dare you wear something so expensive?” she screamed. “You’ve been spending all of my boyfriend’s money on your filthy clothes! Have you no shame? Get down on your knees and apologize, or I guarantee you'll regret it. Who knows where you'll end up tomorrow? Maybe in the hands of some trafficker?” I couldn’t help but laugh. Who would’ve thought that my fiancé, whose tuition fees I paid for, had the nerve to keep a secret mistress behind my back?

They were never supposed to meet. But destiny has other plans. Avery Walter never imagined her world would be shattered in one night, betrayed by her mate and sister, abandoned by her own father, and forced into a political marriage with a cold, aloof prince from the Starlit Pack. Avery's wolf stirs as soon as she meets Prince Sebastian, who is dark-haired, sharp-eyed, and bound to a wheelchair. The attraction is undeniable. He is her second chance mate. However, Sebastian remains distant, unwilling to mark her, believing she is simply another pawn sent by his power-hungry uncle, the King. However, neither of them can ignore the attraction. As secrets are revealed and emotions flare, Sebastian finds himself falling for the woman he once distrusted. This time, it is his turn to chase. Will Avery once again open her heart? Or will love arrive too late?

Ashton screwed up with Evie, he knew he shouldn't have slept with other girls when he found his mate. He is now the new Alpha of his pack, but not complete without he mate. Evie has no intention what so ever to forgive him for what he did. He hurt her too much, and not being a wolf, she could try and forget about him and move on. But he didn't give her much of a choice. He followed her back to San Diego, from Lupus Harbour and marked her. Now she pretty much has two choices, try to find a way out of it with the help of her friends and probably die, or accept Ashton as her mate.

"Why are you doing this?" He sighed as he walked around the bed to my side but he didn't answer. He leaned closer, and I closed my eyes. I could hear our heartbeats, and I could hear his breathing as well. If I didn't see how cold he was to me, I would have thought he was affected by me. But I knew better. I felt the shackle tighten around my neck as tears streamed down my face. It hurt that I had to be shackled, but what hurt the most was that it was my mate doing this. "Fuck." I heard him mutter under his breath. My hand was hoisted up and the chain around my wrist loosened. "Let's go." I wiped the tears from my cheeks as I stood up and followed him. I refused to look at him. I didn't know which was better, the chain or the shackle. Because regardless of what I had, they both meant the same thing - I was nothing but a mere rogue to him.  ¤¤¤¤¤ Stealing The Heart of My Alpha is the final installment in the Black Shadow Pack Series.
