Lors du banquet de noces, Clément Duchamp est arrivé en retard, vêtu du costume du témoin, tenant son premier amour par le bras, tandis qu'il avait jeté avec désinvolture le costume du marié sur le canapé. « Clément, ce n'est pas notre mariage aujourd'hui… » « Jade Bernard ! » Clément m'a interrompue sèchement, les yeux pleins de menace. « Tu sais ce que tu peux dire ou non. Sois digne, ne me pousse pas à te détester. » J'ai esquissé un rire amer. L'ex de Clément avait perdu la mémoire, tout le monde jouait avec elle à un jeu de souvenirs retrouvés, alors personne ne devait la heurter. Pour m'apaiser, Clément m'a prise dans ses bras et m'a murmuré à l'oreille : « Jade, tu peux me comprendre, n'est-ce pas ? » J'ai hoché la tête pour lui montrer que je comprenais, puis je me suis tournée pour prendre la main du vrai témoin et entrer avec lui dans le sanctuaire du mariage. Plus tard, alors que je faisais des achats enceinte au centre commercial, il m'a arrêtée, les yeux pleins de larmes : « Jade, on jouait un rôle, non ? Comment as-tu pu tomber enceinte ? »

“I, Eleanor Bernardi, reject you, Alpha Killian Ivanov, as my mate and Alpha.” She said, glaring at the Alpha who shook his head at the woman, seeming unaffected by her words. He walked toward her, his eyes fixed on her, as if a predator chasing his prey. “Over my dead, fucking, body.” He said, connecting his lips with hers. “You’re mine, Eleanor, and I suggest that you keep that in mind.” ************************************** Running away from her pack was not easy. But when Eleanor Bernardi finds herself mated to none other than her previous pack’s enemy, the Alpha of Alphas, Pakhan of Mafias, Alpha Killian Ivanov, she is stuck in conflict between whether or not she could trust him. And with his dominant figure, he finds himself not wanting to let her go. At least, not under her own terms…

“You are nothing but a slave, do you understand?” Alpha Alexei said, glaring at Scarlett whose eyes hardened in anger. “That is where you are wrong” Scarlett said, glaring at the Alpha. His eyes were fixed on hers, waiting to hear what she had to say “I am no slave, Alpha Alexei, and whether or not you are Alpha, you are not my Alpha” ************************ Sold, beaten, and taken advantage of. Scarlett has fought for her life to stand strong and not give into the pain. But when she is sold to the Alpha, the Russian Pakhan , her life takes a turn like no other. Would Scarlett give into the cold Alpha, or would the Alpha soften to the girl who he saw as nothing but a slave?

"Call me Alpha, little wolf" Damien snarled looking at the girl who just walked into his office. "One thing that you need to understand, me being your wife does not and will NEVER mean that you're my Alpha" Natalia snapped. *************** Being born a rogue, Natalia has always wished to be part of a pack, somewhere to belong and call home. But when both Damien and Natalia’s worlds collide, in what humans call marriage; both the mafia and wolf worlds are shaken.

“I, Alpha Damon Lockwood, reject you, Sienna De Luca as my mate and Luna.” He said, looking her in the eye as she stood in front of the entire pack, waiting for him to acknowledge her as his mate. She froze for a moment, not knowing what to say before she took a deep breath. Her eyes meeting her mother’s who shook her head, who was telling her not to do this. However, she knew not to stop. “I, Sienna De Luca accept your rejection alpha Damon…” ****************************** Shocked and embarrassed, Sienna finds herself being forced to leave the pack before anyone stopped her from doing so, before she embarrasses her family more than she already believes she has. She took one glance at the test, which was inside her purse, before she took a deep breath and just walked out. Knowing that things were going to be different. Knowing that things were going to be hard. However, when the alpha finds her nine months later, things decide to take a different turn…

"What is a human like you doing in a werewolf tribe?" he asks, his piercing gaze fixed on me. I almost scoff but think better of it. His kind is ruthless, and the last thing I want is to land on the bad side of my new master. "If only your kind weren’t tearing mine away from our families and torture us for fun," I reply, my biting sarcasm still slipping through despite my best efforts to keep my anger at bay. He doesn’t flinch, nor does he lash out, which surprises me. Still, I don’t dare meet his eyes. "Would you like to go with me?" he asks after a long silence. That’s when I finally look up. "Goods like me don’t get choices, Alpha. We obey." ***** For twelve years, I’ve done everything to keep my head down and stay out of the way of my masters. I count the days until I can escape and have my freedom. It’s so close I can almost taste it, until that one night when I make a silly mistake. I spill a drink on an Alpha. "Alpha Kael, let me make amends for this terrible mistake the human made," Alpha Lucian declares. "I offer her to you as a gift from my heart!" Just like that, I find myself tossed from one ruthless Alpha into the hands of another.
