Jasper Vale

"Just sign the document” His voice is cold, sending shivers down my spine. I stare at the file which is in my hands and flip it open. The first words written in red bold letters on the document stare back at me, causing my head to spin. DIVORCE AGREEMENT. The words stare back at me. My gaze drops to the signature line.   And there is, staring deep into my soul  His signature and name. He has signed the goddamn papers. * * * * * * What happens when you walk in on your husband having sex with his ex on your birthday?? Cruel right? ----- Elena Carter loved her husband with all her heart, all her body, and with all her soul. She married him, and gave him everything a man can dream of. But what did she get in return? She got rewarded with a cold, heart ripping divorce after she walks in on him sleeping with his ex on her birthday. He is cruel. He is unfaithful. And he is now choosing his ex over her. A nightmare she never dreamed of. Unable to endure his bullshit any longer, she gives in to what he wants. She signed the divorce papers. Now, she is picking up the pieces of her life. She has vowed never to love any man again. Men are scum, and she will not be bitten twice. But what happens when Sebastian Vale, the sexy demigod of a billionaire CEO, shows up and turns into the man who begins to plague her mind? Will she open her heart once again? Or will she allow the hurt from her past keep her from mending her broken heart?

After the real son, Asher Vale, was brought back, everything in our house became tied to drawing lots. The chef of the day, who would have to cook a particular person's preferred dishes, had to be decided by drawing lots. Even our parents' kisses and hugs were chosen the same way. I always drew the short stick. The long stick, by default, belonged to Asher. He never had to do anything to receive our parents' love. Whenever I felt it was unfair and wanted to cry, Mom would scold me sharply, "I bought the lot-drawing box because I was afraid you'd feel hurt. I wanted to be fair to both of you. If you want something, decide it yourselves. Your father and I won't interfere. If you can't draw the long stick, you can only blame your bad luck." So I began practicing every day, shaking the box diligently, over and over, in hopes that one day, it would help me earn my parents' love. Unfortunately, for ten years, I never once drew the long stick. Until my birthday. Asher wanted to go to the amusement park, and Mom once again told us to decide by drawing lots. I secretly glued the two short sticks together and handed them to Mom, hoping to keep her with me. She slapped me hard across the face, screaming that I was cheating and disobedient. Then she stormed out of the house with Asher. When I fell to the ground, the short stick stabbed deep into my neck. 'I'm sorry, Mom. Next time, I'll work harder. Next time, I'll definitely draw the long stick.'

“I never betrayed you!” Cassandra’s voice trembled as she spoke. “Not once—not ever—” “Then whose child did you give birth to?” The Alpha, Alaric Drayden, cut in coldly, each word heavy with condemnation. The woman lying weak on the hospital bed flinched at the cruelty in his tone. “Enough. I don’t need your excuses, Cassandra.” Tears streamed down her cheeks, unstoppable. “No, my Alpha. I swear—I never betrayed you—” “I, Alaric Drayden, Alpha of the SilverFang Pack, hereby sever the bond between us. From this moment forward, no tie of fate binds us, Cassandra. I reject you as my Luna for the treachery you’ve committed.” Cassandra shook her head in disbelief, her voice breaking. “No! No! You can’t do this to me, my Alpha!” *** Betrayed by her husband. Stolen from by her own half-sister. Cast out by her pack. That was the fate everyone had wished upon Cassandra Vale, the fallen Luna of SilverFang. But a true wolf never truly dies. Five years later, Cassandra returned—stronger, sharper, her elder blood awakened and ready to shake the entire werewolf world. With the Alpha who once saved her—Orion Caldrex—at her side, she would face the conspiracies of her family, the battle for the Luna throne, and a war between packs that threatened to shatter the balance of power. Betrayal had remade her. Fate demanded her rise. And this time… nothing would stop Cassandra Vale. Not even destroying those who once cast her aside—including Alaric Drayden, her former Alpha. But when every truth finally comes to light…would Alaric still be standing at her side?

...“You can’t win this trial. The pack is against you. Your father is against you. Even your friend…” He paused. “Even she has betrayed you.” Kael’s eyes locked on mine, hard as iron. “So I’ll give you a choice. Trust me, and I’ll make sure you live.” “Trust you? You just claimed me like I was some prize to steal. You said you would kill me if I lost control.” “And I meant it,” he said, voice flat. “But I won’t let them tear you apart like animals. If you let me, I’ll fake your defeat. I’ll claim you fully... On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Lyra Vale’s first shift should have bound her to her pack. Instead, it marked her as the monster they fear most. Born under the cursed Blood Moon Oath, she is fated to either unite the supernatural world… or reduce it to ash. Now every faction wants her blood; the Vampire Courts whisper her name as the key to breaking their chains, while the Witch Sanctum swears she is a mistake of prophecy and her own pack and her family would rather see her buried than crowned. But fate is never merciful. Lyra’s soul is bound to a mate who is both her fiercest protector and her deadliest enemy. A boy who swore an oath that might kill her… and break her in ways no blade could. As betrayal coils tighter than love in a world where alliances shift like shadows and every truth has fangs, Lyra must decide: Will she chain the beast inside her or unleash it? This is because under the Blood Moon, even salvation tastes like blood, every choice bleeds and under the Blood Moon, will love be a weapon?

"He drags me from wall to table to wall again, like he can’t decide which surface deserves this. Wood bites my spine, the table squeals... His hands are everywhere, rough, greedy, feral. He palms my throat, my jaw, my hips. He fists a hand in my hair and angles my mouth... The kiss is vicious. He grinds me open with it... 'Kneel,' he says. The command is a shove under the skin. My legs fold. It’s humiliating how fast I go and how much I love myself for it." He owns my mouth. My body. My fucking soul. But I never said he could have my heart. Eli’s been chained before and it damn near killed him. So when he’s caught running through Blackthorn pack lands by Ronan Vale, the savage Alpha of Blackthorn, he's horrified when the brute marks and claims him. But Ronan doesn’t just bite. He binds. With ropes, with rules, with a voice that makes Eli's knees go weak and a touch that turns resistance into hunger. The bond between them is feral. And Eli hates how much he wants it, how much he wants Ronan, even when he has him spread out and shaking, marked and owned, begging to be filled so he’ll stop feeling empty. Eli swore no one would ever own him again. Then came the Alpha whose bond feels like a brand and a promise all at once. He hates how much he wants it. Ronan’s voice. Ronan’s hands. Ronan’s brutal, worshipful need. This isn’t love, it’s obsession. And Eli is afraid that he's starting to like it.

Elias cleared his throat and rolled his eyes. “Thank you,” he said. I tilted my head. “No. Not like that.” His brows rose. “Then how…?” Being so close to him, his scent enveloping my senses messed with my brain. My eyes dragged down his naked chest, to his abs and stopped at the V line in his lower abdomen. Just this one time, I was letting my emotions and desires control me. Just this once, I didn't want to care about the consequences. I reached out slowly, took his hand in mine, and guided it up my chest, dragging it down the line of my torso, over warm skin, every inch of contact making his breath hitch. His hand trembled as it followed my guide and I could feel electricity tingling at every inch he touched. I guided his hand lower and lower, his eyes widened when I stopped with his hand on my rock hard cock. With his hand still in mine, I squeezed on my cock and groaned in pleasure. I leaned in, my voice a low whisper against his ear, “Like this.” ************************************* Elias Thorne, a secret Omega who has trained to be a Perfect Alpha, was sent to Mortlach Alpha Academy to solidify his position as the next Alpha of Silverhaven During his time in the school, he only had two orders to follow; stay away from the heirs of the Crescent Pack and make Selena Drake your mate to forge an alliance with her Pack But a simple order became the hardest task for him when Rowan Vale, the Alpha's second son of Crescent Pack was assigned as Elias’s roommate, whose mere presence woke up the part of him that he tries to suppress.

Cuando cumplimos tres años de casados, recibí una invitación para la boda de mi esposo; la novia era mi prima, Lina. Seguí la dirección que venía en la invitación y volé a Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, en cuanto llegué, vi a mi marido, Marco, el Don más joven de Italia, abrazando a Lina por la cintura mientras brindaban juntos. Varios fuegos artificiales estallaron en el cielo formando los nombres de los dos. Dentro de la capilla, sus hombres se reían y bromeaban. —En Italia se casó con Aurora y en Estados Unidos se va a casar con Lina. ¡El Don sí que sabe cómo quedarse con lo mejor de los dos mundos! —¿No que no sentía nada por Lina? La voz de Marco se escuchó por encima del ruido: —Al principio, en serio que no sentía nada por ella. Para mí era solo una niña, pero me buscó durante años. Nunca le importó que la ignorara, e incluso se quedó a mi lado los dos años que estuve paralítico, cuidándome. Aunque nunca la dejé entrar a mi corazón, no podía ignorarla para siempre. Los dos años que estuvo paralítico... Así que durante ese tiempo, mientras yo estaba en el desierto, comiendo tierra y durmiendo a la intemperie, luchando contra el cansancio solo para conseguir esos extractos medicinales raros para curar su columna herida, mi esposo había empezado un romance con mi prima. Me limpié las lágrimas, saqué los papeles del divorcio que Marco había firmado cuando recién se lastimó y puse mi firma. Si mi dedicación no vale nada comparada con que alguien esté ahí a su lado, no necesito a un hombre que puede traicionarme tan fácil.

Elara Knigh a autrefois évolué dans les cercles où le pouvoir protège de tout. Aujourd’hui, il ne lui reste plus rien de cette influence, sinon des ennemis, des menaces et une certitude glaçante : elle n’est plus en sécurité. Lorsqu’elle croise la route d’Adrian Vale, elle ne demande pas à être sauvée. Elle négocie. Adrian est un homme qui ne croit ni au hasard ni à la compassion. Il ne protège pas par bonté, mais par stratégie. Son monde repose sur une seule loi : le contrôle. Un contrôle précis, silencieux, méthodique — jamais brutal, toujours choisi. Lorsqu’il accepte de prendre Elara sous sa protection, ce n’est pas un acte de charité, mais la signature d’un contrat. Un contrat qui impose des règles. Pas de chaînes. Pas de violence. Seulement une structure, une surveillance constante, et une obéissance déguisée en ordre. Dans cet univers où tout est cadré, Elara découvre une forme de domination qu’elle n’avait jamais envisagée : une emprise subtile, presque rassurante, qui lui offre une sécurité qu’elle n’a plus connue depuis longtemps. Peu à peu, elle comprend que le pouvoir d’Adrian ne réside pas dans la force, mais dans le retrait, l’absence, le refus. À mesure que la tension entre eux grandit, la relation bascule. Les règles deviennent des rituels. L’obéissance devient un choix. Et le contrôle, une tentation. Mais lorsqu’Elara commence à manipuler à son tour, prouvant qu’elle n’est ni faible ni soumise, Adrian se retrouve confronté à ce qu’il redoute le plus : perdre la maîtrise de ce qu’il protège. L’attirance se transforme en obsession, et la frontière entre protection et possession se fissure.

El día en que descubrieron que yo no era la verdadera hija de la familia millonaria, la auténtica heredera irrumpió en la casa y me apuñaló varias veces en el vientre, condenándome a perder para siempre la posibilidad de ser madre. Mi prometido estalló de furia por lo ocurrido y mis padres, desesperados, declararon de inmediato que no volverían a reconocerla. Para calmarme, mi prometido me pidió matrimonio a toda prisa, mientras que mis padres escribieron una carta de ruptura con ella, pidiéndome que me enfocara en recuperarme. Después dijeron que ella había huido al extranjero y que había terminado vendida en otro país, un destino trágico y merecido. Yo lo creí. Hasta que, seis años después de mi matrimonio, vi con mis propios ojos a la supuesta “desaparecida”. La encontré recargada en el pecho de mi esposo, con un vientre abultado, suspirando con fingida melancolía. —Si hace seis años no hubiera perdido la cabeza y cometido aquel error, Liliana jamás habría tenido la oportunidad de casarse contigo. Por suerte tú y mis padres siempre estuvieron de mi lado; de lo contrario, esa impostora me habría mandado directo a la cárcel. Esa maldita… jamás se imaginó que he vivido todo este tiempo bajo sus narices… y ahora llevo en mi vientre a tu hijo. Cuando nazca, busca cualquier excusa para “adoptarlo” y así la tendrás de por vida como mi sirvienta. Gracias por estos años, Mauricio. Su mirada cargada de ternura hizo que el rostro de Mauricio se encendiera. —No digas eso… casarme con ella fue la única manera de mantener tu nombre limpio y que siguieras viviendo en libertad. Todo vale la pena, si tú estás bien. En ese instante lo comprendí: el hombre al que llamaba mi verdadero amor me había engañado todo este tiempo, incluso, mis propios padres. Habían hecho absolutamente todo para proteger a su hija biológica. Bien si así son las cosas… entonces yo ya no los quiero en mi vida.
