J Vernon Mcgee Commentary

My best friend Seraphine had not one drop of blood left in her body when they found her. Her skin was translucent. There were two dried trails of blood from the corners of her mouth, like she had wept herself empty long before the end. She left one note. One sentence: "Vera saw his face." From that day forward, I became the Covenant's greatest sinner. Because I knew who did it. But I said nothing. For ten years, I said nothing. Then Lucian came back. He was the one who had turned us, raised us, given us the only home we had ever known. He set the Soul Prism in front of me. "Tonight," he said, "you give me the killer." His eyes hadn't changed. That was the worst part. After ten years of exile, of stones and fire and nights that never got warmer, I looked at him and he was still exactly who he had always been to me. "Or you disappear from this world along with him." He didn't know. The reason I had chosen exile and starvation and a Blood Oath that had been eating my soul core alive for a decade — was him. All of it, always, had been for him.

Couronné Roi Alpha à seulement treize ans, Liam Guillermo a grandi avec du sang sur les mains et la vengeance dans le cœur. Impitoyable et craint de tous, il a juré de ne jamais aimer, de ne jamais faire confiance—même lorsque le destin l’a lié à une âme sœur. Olivia Noah n’a connu que la douleur. Trahie par sa propre famille, moquée pour sa silhouette et forcée d’entrer au palais contre sa volonté, elle devient la seule chose que Liam n’a jamais voulue : sa compagne. Méprisée, humiliée et utilisée uniquement pour lui donner un héritier, Olivia découvre qu’elle porte l’enfant du Roi Alpha. Mais lorsque sa trahison la plus sombre éclate au grand jour, elle s’enfuit—jurant de protéger son bébé, même si cela signifie abandonner le lien d’âme sœur. Trois ans plus tard, Olivia a reconstruit sa vie en tant que mère forte et épanouie dans une meute lointaine. Elle a juré de ne jamais pardonner à Liam. Mais lorsque le Roi Alpha retrouve sa trace ainsi que celle de leur fils, il est déterminé à regagner sa confiance et l’amour qu’il a détruit—même si cela implique d’affronter un Alpha rival qui la désire en secret depuis toujours. Dans un monde de trahison, de pouvoir et de vengeance, Olivia doit choisir : protéger son cœur, ou tout risquer pour une seconde chance d’amour avec l’âme sœur qui l’a autrefois brisé ?

You don’t belong in my world,” he growled, his hand tightening around my waist. “Then why do you keep pulling me deeper into it?” I whispered. Ten years ago, I lost everything, my parents, my innocence, my trust in fate. I only remember his shaking hands… and the birthmark on his arm. Now, the most feared man in the city wants me. A billionaire who commands blood and silence. A mafia king who kneels only in the dark, only for me. But what happens when I discover that the man I love… …is the same man who destroyed my life?

To save the three most important men in my life, I made a deal with the Moon Goddess. Trade my life for theirs. If I could make any one of them truly love me within five years, I'd get to live. But on the final day of the countdown, all three still had negative feelings toward me. According to the rules, I'd failed. My life was about to be erased. "Moon Goddess, could I send one last message? One final try?" Maybe out of pity, she granted me this last attempt. This message was my final shot. I hit the voice button in our group chat, fighting to keep my voice steady. "Could you guys love me just a little? I'm really going to die." After a moment of silence came their merciless laughter. "You'll do anything to compete with Lidia for attention, won't you?" "Cut the lies. This just makes us hate you more." "If you're so desperate to die, then just do it already." Mission failed. I gave them exactly what they wanted. But when I was about to die, they all freaked out.

Una ay si Steve Mendez. Ang lalaking niligtas niya sa bingit ng kamatayan na inakala niyang kaibigan at mapagkakatiwalaan. Ngunit may maitim pa lang binabalak sa kanya kapalit ng hindi pagbubunyag ng sikretong iniingatan. Pangalawa ay si Benedict Gonzalvo isang negosyanteng pinagkakautangan ng kanyang ama.

"You're too weak to be my Luna." Those were the words that shattered Erin Arckwight's world. Rejected publicly by her mate - the Alpha of her own pack - she did what any broken wolf would do. She ran straight into the Forbidden Forest, the one place most wolves never venture into. But what most people do not know is that the Forbidden Forest doesn't break you. It remakes you. When Erin descends into the feral state that all werewolves fear, she doesn't lose herself. Instead, she awakens an ancient power that's been sleeping in her bloodline for three thousand years. And she's not alone. Kade Thornhart, the scarred and dangerous leader of the feral pack, doesn't trust the stubborn, sarcastic girl who stumbles into his territory. But he can't deny the fire in her amber eyes or the way his wolf claims her as his. She was rejected by an Alpha. Now she'll be claimed by something far more dangerous.

Para salvar os três homens mais importantes da minha vida, fiz um acordo com a Deusa da Lua. Trocar minha vida pela deles. Se eu pudesse fazer qualquer um deles me amar de verdade em cinco anos, eu teria o direito de viver. Mas no último dia da contagem regressiva, todos os três ainda tinham sentimentos negativos por mim. De acordo com as regras, eu havia falhado. Minha vida estava prestes a ser apagada. — Deusa da Lua, eu poderia enviar uma última mensagem? Uma tentativa final? Talvez por pena, ela me concedeu esta última chance. Esta mensagem era meu tiro final. Eu apertei o botão de voz em nosso bate-papo em grupo, lutando para manter minha voz firme. — Vocês poderiam me amar só um pouquinho? Eu realmente vou morrer. Após um momento de silêncio, veio o riso impiedoso deles. — Você fará qualquer coisa para competir com Lidia por atenção, não fará? — Pare com as mentiras. Isso só faz com que te odiemos mais. — Se você está tão desesperada para morrer, então faça isso de uma vez. Missão falhada. Eu lhes dei exatamente o que queriam. Mas quando eu estava prestes a morrer, todos eles surtaram.
