Joe Locke Nude

Pagkamatay ng nanay ni Joey ay bigla na lamang nagpakita ang tatay niyang ni sa hinagap ay hindi niya alam na buhay pa. Dinala siya nito sa magarbo nitong bahay at ganon-ganon na lamang nagbago ang buhay ni Joey. *** “Fine, I will let you stay here. But in one condition. You must prove yourself to us. You will enter the Ember University and pass their upcoming exams. If not, you must leave.” Halos lumubog si Joey sa kinatatayuan nito dahil sa bilis ng pagsasalita ng kanyang madrasta. ‘Nag-fli-fliptop ba ‘to?’ tanong niya sa isipan. Pero napakamot na lamang siya ng kanyang ulo. “Do you understand?” Nakaka-pressure pang dagdag na tanong ni Aling Mariebeth. Mas lalo lang tuloy lumalim ang gitla sa noo niya saka siya mabagal na napalunok. “Uhm, ang galing niyo naman pong mag-English. Pwede pong pa-translate?” nakangiwing saad niya rito dahilan para mamula ang mukha nito sa pinaghalong inis at galit. *** Ngunit paano nga ba niya haharapin ang pagbabagong ito ng buhay niya? Mula sa isang kahig, isang tukang paghihirap, ngayon ay anak pala siya ng isa sa pinakamayamang negosyante sa bansa. Idagdag pa ang mukhang laging galit na madrasta niya at prinsesitang hilaw na kapatid niya. Isa lang ang kailangang gawin ni Joey at iyon ang pumasa sa Ember University. At magagawa lamang niya ‘yon kung tutulungan siya ni Ivan Dela Fuente, ang lampa at nerd niyang kaklase. Pero bakit ba bigla-bigla na lang tumitibok ng malakas ang puso niya dahil sa loser na lalaking ito? ‘Bwesit! Hindi nakakaastig ‘to!’ Inis na sita ni Joey sa sarili lalo pa kung ang gusto naman ni Ivan ay ang hilaw niyang kapatid at hindi siya.

Heloísa Valente nasceu sendo uma garotinha surda que sempre sofreu com olhares frios. Mas aos vinte anos, sua mãe a amarrou ao herdeiro dos Franco com um simples exame de gravidez. Simão Franco a odiava até os ossos, mas não conseguiu escapar do destino de se casar com ela. Depois do casamento, Simão vivia flertando com todo o tipo de mulher, menos com ela, nem sequer a olhava de verdade. Para manter a imagem de boa esposa e pelo bem do filho, ela engoliu a dor, vez após vez. Até que um dia, a mulher que sempre foi a dona do coração dele apareceu à sua porta. E o filho que ela trouxe ao mundo com tanto esforço a chamou, carinhosamente, de madrinha. Foi então que Heloísa finalmente percebeu, o coração dele não era frio, apenas queimava por outra. Ela deixou o acordo de divórcio sobre a mesa e partiu sem olhar para trás. Mas ele foi atrás, frio e dominante, prendendo-a sob seu corpo enquanto perguntava: — Heloísa, você acha que casamento é brincadeira? Casa quando quer e se separa quando quer? — Quer o divórcio? Falamos disso depois que você me der o segundo filho.

They were the cause of murders in their place, their territory was known to be precarious. They are struggling to blend in, for the world is against them. Cases unsolved and lives at risk, who will survive at the end?

I'd been married to Joshua Merck for five years, but we still didn't have kids. To stay healthy, I took those pricey custom vitamins he ordered from overseas—never missed a dose. Then my cousin came back from studying abroad, took one look at the bottle, and was like, "That brand doesn't even make custom vitamins." I sent them to the hospital for testing. The lab report hit me like a truck—birth control pills. Powerful ones. Suddenly, all those mornings with Joshua hovering over me, acting so concerned while I took my "vitamins," made sense. The whole thing had been a lie. Five years of lies. Just as I was gearing up to confront him, my phone buzzed—a group chat notification. Shirley Hoare had tagged Joshua. [Honey, I had a prenatal checkup today, and the doctor said I'm carrying twins! Your family's about to get two grandchildren at once—excited?] My heart turned to ash. Everything clicked. Fine. We were done. I pulled out my phone and replied to my childhood sweetheart's message from three days ago: [After watching the northern lights, I still wanted to see penguins in Antarctica.]

Mariana foi a herdeira preciosa da Casa do Marquês Lovante por quinze anos, até o dia em que, de repente, lhe disseram que ela não passava de uma filha falsa. A partir de então, os pais que a amavam passaram a pertencer à Amanda. O irmão mais velho que a mimava a empurrou da escadaria com as próprias mãos por causa de Amanda, e até mesmo seu noivo, o renomado General Kato, escolheu ficar ao lado de Amanda. Pela Amanda, todos assistiram friamente enquanto Mariana era injustamente acusada, punida e enviada para a Lavanderia Imperial, onde trabalhou como escrava por três longos anos, ignorada e esquecida. Quem diria que, três anos depois, o Marquês Lovante e sua esposa apareceriam chorando na frente dela, implorando: — Mari, nós estávamos errados. Volte para casa com a gente! O sempre orgulhoso irmão mais velho se ajoelhou do lado de fora da sua porta por uma noite inteira, implorando: — Mari, me perdoa, pode ser? E o General Kato, glorioso e cheio de feitos de guerra, se aproximou dela, sangrando e coberto de ferimentos, também implorando: — Mari, sinta pena de mim... Olhe para mim mais uma vez, está bem? Mas... O coração dela já havia morrido nos intermináveis dias e noites daqueles três anos. Sentir pena? Seria melhor se ele tivesse virado cinzas! Depois, Mariana conheceu um homem que só tinha olhos para ela. Vendo-a feliz ao lado dele, aquelas pessoas do passado nem sequer ousavam se aproximar. Temiam que, no futuro, nem mesmo de longe pudessem vê-la outra vez...

My father's adopted daughter was only locked in the cramped storage closet for around fifteen minutes, yet he punished me by tying me up and throwing me inside. He even sealed off the ventilation with towels. "As Wendy's older sister, if you can't take care of her, then you should also experience how scared she was," he declared coldly. He knew I was claustrophobic, but my desperate pleas for mercy, my terror, were met with nothing but heartless reprimands. "Let this be a lesson on how to be a good sister." As the last sliver of light disappeared, swallowed by the oppressive darkness, I struggled helplessly. A week passed before my father finally remembered my existence and decided it was time to end my punishment. "Let's hope this week served as a good lesson for you, Jennifer. If this happens again, you will no longer be allowed in this house." He would never know that I had already taken my last breath in that suffocating room. My body had begun to rot in the darkness.

The last thing Miranda thought when she responded to a prison pen pal request was to find true love. Joel, well, he was only hoping to pass time and maybe if he was lucky, he'd find someone to have a little fun with after doing ten years of hard time in the state penitentiary for a crime he committed when he had just barely turned eighteen years old. He had been hardened by the things he'd seen and the experiences of imprisonment and no longer believed in lovey dovey fairy tales or happily ever after. So hardened in fact, that he knew women only led to one thing-trouble. Not even a good girl like Miranda would break him ever again. Not with her long dark hair, those hypnotizing amber-eyes, and definitely not those full lips that would look so good…nope, nope, nope. What neither one expected was to find the perfect balance of emotional and physical attraction. Can Miranda's persistence and commitment soften and heal Joel's untrusting heart or will Joel break Miranda in ways she has never experienced before? This is the first book of three in the Locked-Up Lovers series. Enjoy!
