I called his number endlessly to call for help, only for him to block my number immediately, as he fooled around with his secretary at the presidential suite in broad daylight. All I felt was agony as I was ripped into countless little pieces, still holding on to the black rose seeds he had given me when we were younger.

It was not until rain poured a month later, and a cluster of black roses suddenly grew in the backyard. "Where's Claire? I was just scaring her with the dogs—did she run away just to spite me?"

Résumé : Depuis quatre ans, John et Joseanne forment un jeune couple en apparence solide, avec un petit garçon de deux ans et une belle-famille qui les adore. Mais derrière cette façade parfaite, leur mariage se délite. Joseanne, aimée et admirée par la famille de John, se montre distante, autoritaire et froide avec son mari. Depuis plus de deux ans, ils vivent sans tendresse, sans intimité, sans chaleur. Épuisé moralement, humilié en silence, John s’enferme dans un désespoir qu’il cache à tous — même à ses parents, Jonathan et Christiane. Jusqu’au jour où, au bord du malaise, il s’effondre devant la porte d’une petite pharmacie de quartier. La femme qui le secourt s’appelle Falonne — une jeune mère célibataire au passé douloureux, simple et courageuse, que le destin avait déjà fait croiser, sans qu’ils le sachent, le chemin de Jonathan. Entre John, l’homme brisé par l’indifférence, et Falonne, la femme meurtrie par la trahison, naît une connexion inattendue, fragile et interdite. Une nuit, un geste, un regard suffiront à bouleverser leurs vies — et à réveiller un amour que ni l’un ni l’autre n’attendait plus. Mais chaque passion a un prix. Et quand les secrets se mêlent entre père et fils, entre mari et maîtresse, entre vérité et destin, l’amour devient un labyrinthe dont on ne sort jamais indemne.

She was auctioned like an object, bought like a secret, and caged like a sin. After a brutal betrayal by the people she trusted most, Seraphina Vale is left drowning in debt and despair—until she’s sold at an underground auction to the one man every criminal fears: Lucien Marchesi, the ruthless head of a powerful mafia empire. Cold. Controlled. Deadly. The world assumes she’ll be discarded like the others who came before her. But Seraphina isn't a lamb sent to slaughter. She’s a lioness in velvet chains—calm, calculating, and waiting for her moment. Lucien didn’t expect her fire. She didn’t expect his scars. What begins as a twisted game of control and survival becomes something far more dangerous: emotion. As secrets unravel and obsession burns into something deeper, Seraphina edges dangerously close to what she swore she’d never feel again—trust. Love. Want. But she hasn’t forgotten her mission. Lucien was supposed to be her weapon, not her salvation. And when her revenge explodes into reality, both hearts will shatter under the weight of betrayal. Until he asks the one question that changes everything: “Have you ever loved me?” Chains of Velvet, Heart of Fire is a gripping dark mafia romance about love born from power, loyalty forged in fire, and two broken souls who dared to rewrite their fate. Perfect for fans of morally gray heroes, twist-filled emotional sagas, and heroines who take their power back—beautifully, mercilessly, and on their own terms.

"Moon Goddess, I'd like to go home," says Seraphina Jarett. The Will of the Moon Goddess speaks to her in her mind. She doesn't reply in any form of language. Instead, it is a calm and saddened torrent of consciousness. "Alright, my child. Your mission is about to be completed. In a week, your soul can leave this place." The usually authoritative voice pauses for a few seconds, which is a rare occurrence. Unable to understand my choice, she says, "My child, you have a mate who loves you deeply and sees you as the light of his life. Your pup puts you first in everything. Isn't this your home now? They are your family… your pack." When Seraphina hears the word "family", her gaze lands on the Moon Pool that is in the middle of the room. At the moment, the pool is showing the Alpha of the Blackwood pack, Caelum Blackwood, and his son, Liam Blackwood, touching down in the pack's private airport.
