Jessica Jones

Saat pernikahan aku dan David berjalan sembilan tahun, ayah kandungnya meninggal dunia. Butir pertama dalam wasiatnya adalah David harus punya seorang anak bersama Elvy. Genap sebulan kelahiran anak itu akan menjadi hari resmi untuk David mewarisi harta peninggalan ayahnya. Aku mengetahuinya saat memergoki mereka sedang berduaan di ranjangku bersama David dan David yang bilang sendiri padaku. Malam itu, sambil merokok setelah bercinta, David berbisik pelan, “Lily, sabarlah sebentar lagi. Begitu warisan cair, aku akan menikahimu.” Sejak saat itu, setiap kali David ingin bertemu dengan Elvy di rumah kami, dia akan menggantungkan sebuah lonceng di pintu. Sejak kematian ayahnya hingga kini, lonceng itu sudah berbunyi sembilan puluh sembilan kali.

I worked as a waitress in a small-town diner, but I put my husband Tom through Harvard Law School. But after he graduated, when I was eight months pregnant, he divorced with me and married my best friend, Sarah. On their wedding day, I didn't cry or make a scene. Instead, I went to work as their housekeeper. Tom thought my love made me easy to control. Sarah treated me like dirt, thinking I was born to serve. I never complained – I just prepared a surprise for them. But when their daughter was admitted to Harvard, they opened the surprise and went crazy.

Sa unang pagkikita pa lamang ay may kung ano nang tumama kay Dave. Isang damdamin na tanging kay Jade lamang niya naramdaman. Love at first sight ba iyon? Hindi siya sigurado. Pero may isang bagay na tiyak: gusto niyang protektahan ang dalaga. At magagawa lang niya iyon kung palagi siyang magiging malapit kay Jade. Isang kontrata ang nagbigay-daan para matupad ang hangaring iyon. Isang kontratang walang bahid ng emosyon. Kaya lang, habang tumatagal at habang mas nakikilala niya si Jade, bakit parang handa siyang magbayad nang kahit gaano kalaki, mahalikan lamang ito? At sa huli, iyon din ang nangyari. O baka mas tama kung sabihing ang nasunod ay ang kagustuhan ng kaniyang puso at hindi ang nakasulat sa kontrata.

Ich verbrachte sechs Monate und gab über 20.000 Euro damit aus, einen Familienurlaub zu planen. Als jedoch Alexanders Jugendliebe Victoria von unserer Reise hörte, flehte sie darum, sich uns anzuschließen. Alexander zögerte nicht. Er stornierte meinen Platz im geschützten Konvoi und gab ihn stattdessen ihr. Er zwang mich, allein durch das tödliche Schattenrudel-Territorium zu reisen – eine sechsunddreißigstündige Reise, bei der im letzten Monat drei Wölfe gestorben waren. Die ganze Familie unterstützte Alexanders Entscheidung, ohne einen Gedanken an meine Sicherheit zu verschwenden. Also änderte ich meine Reisepläne. Ich fuhr nach Norden statt nach Süden. Drei Monate lang amüsierte ich mich und ignorierte ihre Rudelverbindungs-Nachrichten. Da begann die Familie zu geraten...

As the leader of his pack, alpha werewolf Lucas has always gotten what he wants. And what he wants now is Jessica, a fiercely independent woman who has always resisted his advances.

As they work together to protect their pack from a rival clan, Jessica can't deny the electric attraction she feels for Lucas. But she's always been determined to make her own choices, and the idea of being a submissive werewolf mate doesn't sit well with her.

But as they navigate the dangerous world of werewolf politics, they may not have the luxury of taking things slow. Will Jessica be able to let go of her reservations and accept Lucas as her alpha and mate? Or will their differences tear them apart and leave their pack vulnerable to attack?

Samantha had been with her husband Alex for 12 long years, dutifully raising his child from a previous relationship. Yet as the years dragged on, the deep resentment she felt could no longer be ignored. Alex took her endless sacrifices for granted, never expressing an ounce of appreciation for all she did to keep their family afloat. His domineering mother only fanned the flames of drama, inserting herself into every aspect of their lives. And their once passionate marriage had become a sexless, loveless obligation. Samantha's only solace was her job at the local hardware store, a seeming world away from the suffocating doldrums of her home life. It was there that she met Jack, her new boss - a charismatic man whose radiant charm and flirtations slowly but surely began chipping away at Samantha's resolve. At first, she dismissed the growing attraction as a harmless crush. But as the weeks ticked by, the chemistry between them became undeniable, an all-consuming force that made her feel truly alive for the first time in years. One fateful night, passion overcame reason, and Samantha surrendered to her desires in Jack's arms. The guilt was searing, but it paled in comparison to the euphoria of being wanted, needed, desired again. Thus began a torrid affair, one built on lies and deception as they stole away for clandestine rendezvous. Samantha was playing with fire, but she couldn't bring herself to stop.

They were together in high school but something happened when he turned 18 he graduated and then disappeared. 7yrs later he came back and turns her world upside down in one night.

Everyone in the Wandering Wolf Gang knew that Ash Blackwood loved me desperately and feared my disappearance most. To give me a sense of security, he drank a loyalty potion in front of me. He said that this magic potion would ensure that he would only desire me, get an erection for me alone, and that he would always report his whereabouts through our mate bond, even when he was on a dangerous mission. I worried about him, hiding my identity as the pack's tactical commander, I was worried that he would feel inferior, so I hid my own abilities and did not want him or the gang members to think that he had risen to power through my short-term precognitive abilities. Yet after a mission, I overheard pack members joking: "Alpha rushed so eagerly to meet Scarlett after taking the antidote, was she that amazing?" So after today’s battle, I quietly kept my mind link with Ash's group, and blocked his perception. In an unmuted mind-link, Ash's thoughts were filled with dirty desires and lascivious content, "Little slut, last time we went through seven vials of enhancement elixir, what do you think?" My heart turned to ice. In despair, I called upon the Moon Goddess: [I wish to leave this world.] The Goddess's ethereal voice echoed in my mind. [Once you leave, all traces of you will be erased from this realm.] [I know, please go ahead.] [Countdown begins: seven days.]
