A Sky-High Lesson: Manners at 30,000 Feet

A Sky-High Lesson: Manners at 30,000 Feet

As I'm unable to get a ticket for my return trip after the Thanksgiving holiday, I specifically booked a first-class seat home. Just as I find my seat, I see an unruly child jumping around on it. I patiently smile and say, "Kid, this is my seat. Where is your seat?" He makes a face at me. "It's mine now, old hag!" I grab him by the collar of his shirt, wanting to lift him out of the seat. At that moment, a woman's piercing voice sounds behind me. "What are you doing? Let go of my son!" I release my grip and say as gently as possible, "Please control your child. This is my seat." Suddenly, she raises her voice. "He's just a child! Can't you, as an adult, give way to him? You're young and dressed decently. How can you have no compassion at all?" I'm so angered by this distorted reasoning that I laugh. "If you're so compassionate, why didn't you spend the money to buy your child a first-class seat?"

Die Reue meines Ex-Ehemannes

Die Reue meines Ex-Ehemannes

Ava: Vor neun Jahren habe ich etwas Schreckliches getan. Es war nicht meine beste Stunde, aber ich sah eine Gelegenheit, den Mann zu bekommen, den ich seit meiner Kindheit geliebt habe, und ich habe sie ergriffen. Jetzt, Jahre später, bin ich es leid, in einer lieblosen Ehe zu leben. Ich möchte uns beide aus einer Ehe befreien, die niemals hätte geschlossen werden dürfen. Man sagt, wenn man etwas liebt, soll man es loslassen... Es war an der Zeit, ihn gehen zu lassen. Ich weiß, dass er mich niemals lieben wird und dass ich nie seine Wahl sein werde. Sein Herz wird immer ihr gehören. Und trotz meiner Sünden verdiene ich es, geliebt zu werden. Rowan: Vor neun Jahren war ich so verliebt, dass ich kaum noch klar sehen konnte. Ich habe alles zerstört, als ich den größten Fehler meines Lebens gemacht habe, und dabei die Liebe meines Lebens verloren. Ich wusste, dass ich meiner Verantwortung nachkommen musste, und das tat ich – mit einer ungewollten Ehefrau. Mit der falschen Frau. Jetzt hat sie mein Leben erneut auf den Kopf gestellt, indem sie sich von mir scheiden ließ. Um die Sache noch komplizierter zu machen: Die Liebe meines Lebens ist wieder in der Stadt. Die einzige Frage ist jetzt: Wer ist die Richtige? Ist es das Mädchen, in das ich mich vor Jahren Hals über Kopf verliebt habe? Oder ist es meine Ex-Frau, die Frau, die ich nie wollte, aber heiraten musste?

He Postponed Us, Now He's Paying the Price

He Postponed Us, Now He's Paying the Price

Our Pack followed an ancient law: if a she-wolf wasn't bonded by the age of 23, the Pack had the right to assign her a mate, regardless of her will. Felix is my childhood sweetheart and fated mate, the Alpha of the Moonclaw Pack. But he postponed our bonding ceremony and is holding a mating ceremony with an Omega first, all because of that law. Felix pitied Omega, Valentina, who was already 22, afraid she would be matched with a bad mate. But he seemed to forget that after waiting for him for 5 years, I would turn 23 next month. My mother and I begged him to reconsider our mating ceremony only to be met with Felix's dilemma attitude: "You've waited this many years, what's a little longer?" "Besides me, who else would choose Valentina? Clara, you still have parents, but Valentina is poor, she only has me." "Please wait, after the mate bond ceremony with Valentina, I'll break it and then bond with you." Later, in order to prevent me from bonding with a slave, my mother hurriedly chose a mate for me. Coincidentally, my mate bond ceremony and Felix and Valentina's mate bond ceremony were on the same day. On the day I was being taken off in a luxury car, I passed by Felix handing him ceremonial flowers. When he saw me, he suddenly shifted into a wolf and blocked the car insane. Even after being hit and vomiting blood, he stared intensely at me and asked why I was wearing a wedding dress…

The Price of Forgiveness

The Price of Forgiveness

My name is Cassie Aster. I was born Cassandra Burton. I wasn’t born rich, or with a powerful name. But I was born smart—some would say lucky. At fifteen, I entered a contest for a scholarship to the most prestigious school in the country: Aster Academy of Excellence. Out of more than four hundred applicants, only five were chosen. By sixteen, I was walking through its gates. That’s where I met him—Jacob Aster. The son of the school’s owners. The heir to one of the wealthiest families on Earth. I fell for him immediately, but I rejected him—over a hundred times. My studies, my scholarship, my future came first. To him, that meant only one thing: he had to buy my love. Over a decade later, we’re married. And to the world, I’m the luckiest girl alive—proof that fairy tales come true. From rags to riches, just like that. But I never thought of myself as having only rags. And I didn’t marry him for his riches. Still, every time he strays, he buys my forgiveness—for $100,000. For him, I gave up my career. For him, I live like a caged bird, taken out only for display. For him, I die a little every day. Every time my card doesn’t decline, my heart does. Most of his women at least have the shame to stay out of my sight. But not her. Coral Monroue is shameless. He favors her now. And I can’t help but wonder— will she be the one who finally pushes me to leave?
