Julian

Atty. Roxanne Gomez thought she had it all — a thriving career and a peaceful life ahead. Pero isang gabi, gumuho ang lahat. Pag-uwi niya mula sa panalo niyang kaso, natuklasan niyang may ibang minamahal ang asawa niya — isang matandang lalaki na matagal nang kaibigan ng pamilya nila. Doon niya nalaman ang matinding katotohanang ginamit lang siya ni Julian bilang panakip sa tunay niyang pagkatao. Sa gitna ng sakit at pagkadurog, pinili ni Roxanne na magpakalayo at magpakalunod sa alak. Ngunit pagmulat ng mata niya kinabukasan, natagpuan siya sa piling ng isang lalaking hindi niya inakala na magiging bahagi ng kanyang buhay — si Mateo Ramirez, ang tiyuhin ng asawa niya. Isang gabing puno ng luha at kalasingan ang nagbunga ng isang kasalanang hindi niya matatakasan. Parang gumuho ang mundo ni Roxanne nang malamang siya ay buntis. At ang ama ng dinadala niya ay ang mismong tiyuhin ng asawa niyang minsang sumira sa kanya. Habang sinusubukan niyang takasan ang nakaraan, unti-unti namang tumitibok ang puso niya para kay Mateo — ang lalaking hindi niya dapat minahal, ngunit hindi rin niya kayang talikuran. Ipaglalaban ba ni Roxanne ang bawal na pag-ibig, o susunod sa katahimikan at reputasyon ng lahat? Paano kung ang tanging kasalanan niya… ay ang magmahal ng maling tao sa tamang panahon?

Evelyn Moore thought marrying Adrian Blackwood would be her fairy-tale ending. Instead, she became the ghost in his mansion… invisible, unwanted, and broken. For three years, she endured his coldness, his cruelty, and his lies. She smiled through the humiliation when society whispered about his mistress. But when she discovered she was pregnant and he still chose his mistress, something inside her shattered and then rebuilt itself stronger. She signed the divorce papers and walked away from the Blackwood empire with nothing but her dignity. What Adrian didn’t know? She was never just Evelyn Moore, the orphan he married out of obligation. She is Evelyn Hartman…the missing daughter of the most powerful family in the country. Her three brothers emerged from the shadows like avenging angels: Elias, Damian and Julian, ready to protect their sister at all cost They showered her with love, protection, and the wealth she’d been denied for years. But as she heals and rises again, one man stands by her side—Luca Varyn, her silent bodyguard with haunted eyes and deadly hands. He becomes her protector, her confidant, and the man who teaches her what true respect feels like. Yet when shocking secrets resurface, Evelyn learns that Adrian’s cruelty wasn’t born of hate, but of deception…a lie that shattered them both. Now Adrian is fighting not just for forgiveness, but for the woman he never truly stopped loving. Caught between the man who broke her and the man who saved her, Evelyn must choose between the safety of her new life and the dangerous, fragile chance of mending a love that was never meant to die. Because sometimes… the heart remembers the truth even when the mind refuses to.

“You little whore.” He rolled his hips with vigor, every thrust a reminder of how insanely his cock had craved her since their last time together. “So wet for daddy.” Her wet pussy throbbed around him, demanding more. He pulled her close, his grip tightening around her waist to steady her in the position he was fucking her. Out of urgency, he lifted her dress up to reveal her naked rump bouncing to the rhythms of his cock. “Fuck me so hard, daddy. Please.” At her request, he pounded her, his long and hard thickness hammering sweetly into her slippery heat, breaking her body into halves, pleasure burning through him unbearably. - After a disastrous heartbreak that shatters her life, Tessa leaves the city behind to start over. Her best friend offers her a place to stay until she finds her footing again. But upon arrival at the new city, she meets him. Julian. Her best friend's father. A man almost twice her age. Untouchable. Way out of her league. One look at him awakens a dangerous hunger deep inside her. He's the kind of temptation she should never desire, but she swears to have him. - Julian has been widowed and single for years, living a quiet life and keeping his desires firmly under control until Tessa walks into his home. Young and beautiful, with an innocent face that hides a sinfully seductive aura. She's his daughter's best friend-completely off limits. The first glance he took at her should be the last. She is a tease, a menace he should stay far away from. But forbidden is sometimes too sweet to resist. And once they cross that line, they may never be able to turn back again.

Penelope was the girl they broke. Now, she’s the woman who’ll destroy them all. She once thought love would save her. Julian the golden boy of the Callister Pack was supposed to be her forever. But one night shattered everything. Drugged. Humiliated. Framed. Her best friend and her mate betrayed her in the most brutal way imaginable, and the pack she once called home cast her out like filth. Whipped. Starved. Left to rot in the Ashborne Pack dungeons. Her innocence was replaced by something colder and sharper. A year later, the world thinks she’s forgotten. Forgiven. They couldn’t be more wrong. But when her father strikes a deal with Alpha Daemon Callister’s father, Penelope is forced to move into the mansion of her enemy. She swore she’d make Callister pay. Her plan was simple: seduce Alpha Daemon, destroy Callister, and take back everything she lost. Make Callister jealous. Make her watch as she sank her claws into Alpha Daemon, Callister’s father. Cold. Dangerous. Untouchable. She would seduce him. Use him and then walk away, satisfied. But revenge turned into obsession. Not hers. His. Daemon wasn’t supposed to fall. Wasn’t supposed to crave her like a sickness. Now, he watches her every move. Marks her skin with his mouth. Kills any man who dares to look at her twice. He knows about the age gap. But he doesn’t care, he doesn’t just want her love. He wants her submission. Because now that she’s in his bed, he’ll ruin anyone who tries to take her away even if it means destroying his own blood.

He broke the bond. Now, her brothers will break his empire. Sierra Vaughn was the Steele Pack’s best-kept secret—a "wolfless" Omega who served her Alpha husband, Cameron Steele, with a quiet, devastating devotion. For three years, she endured his cold stares and the pack’s whispered insults, all for the sake of a fated match he refused to acknowledge. But the night she finally discovers she’s carrying his heirs—twins with a scent more powerful than any Alpha in history—Cameron delivers a killing blow. He demands a Severance of the Mate Bond to marry a "worthy" high-ranker, Lexi Hart. Left for dead and exiled into the winter wilderness, Cameron expects Sierra to fade into a memory. Instead, he ignites a war. Because Sierra Vaughn isn’t an Omega. She is the True Lunar Heiress of the legendary Vaughn Circle—the most ancient, lethal, and wealthy Great-Pack in the Northlands. And she has six overprotective Alpha brothers who have been waiting for the moment she finally comes home. Landon, the Real Estate Titan, who builds her a fortress. Miles, the Tech Genius, who silences Cameron’s communications. Dr. Aaron, the Healer, who vows to keep her and her pups safe at any cost. Julian, Cole, and Ryder, who use their fame and power to dismantle the Steele Pack’s reputation, brick by bloody brick. As Sierra transforms from a discarded wife into a Sovereign Queen, her scent becomes an intoxicating drug that Cameron can no longer ignore. He’s feral with regret, desperate to reclaim the mate he threw away. But Sierra is no longer a submissive wolf. She’s a Vaughn. And if Cameron wants a second chance, he’ll have to crawl through a gauntlet of ten protective Alphas just to catch a glimpse of the throne

“She was untouched, innocent, and desperate. He was ruthless, dominant, and determined to have an heir.” --- Nang mag-apply si Solenne Villareal bilang maid sa mansyon ng isang bilyonaryo, ang tanging hangad lang niya ay magkaroon ng maayos na trabaho para maipagamot ang kanyang inang may sakit. Pero sa mismong araw ng pagpirma niya ng kontrata, biglang tumawag ang kapatid niyang si Julian—isinugod daw sa ospital ang kanilang ina matapos atakihin ng seizure. Sa sobrang kaba at takot, hindi na nabasa ni Solenne ang buong kontrata. Pinirmahan niya ito nang hindi iniisip ang magiging kapalit. The next morning, she learned the devastating truth. She wasn't hired as a maid. She was chosen as a surrogate bride. Ang kanyang employer, si Caelum Valtieri, ang cold at merciless billionaire, ay sinabi ang totoong nilalaman ng pinirmahan niyang kontrata. Siya ay magiging surrogate mother ng magiging heir nito at sa loob ng isang taon ay magsasama sila sa iisang bubong bilang mag-asawa. Bilang kapalit, ipagagamot ang kanyang nanay na may sakit at tutustusan ang pag-aaral ng kapatid niya hanggang sa makapagtapos ito. Gustong mag-back out ni Solenne nang malaman ito, pero nang makausap niya ang doktor na sumusuri sa kanyang Nanay Emilia ay sinabing kailangan nitong maoperahan kaagad, kung hindi ay baka manganib ang buhay nito. And with no choice left, she accepted the bargain that chained her to the man she feared the most. Para kay Caelum, isa lang siyang kontrata—isang sisidlan para sa tagapagmana. Para kay Solenne, siya lang ang natitirang pag-asa ng kanyang ina. Ngunit sa kasal na sinelyuhan ng desperasyon at kapalit na buhay, posible kayang mamagitan ang pag-ibig sa pagitan ng isang ruthless CEO at ng inosenteng babaeng napilitang ibigay ang lahat?

Mi hermana adoptiva, Clara, me tendió una trampa. Afirmó que la obligué a beber sangre de bestia. El terror, según ella, le provocó un ataque al corazón. Debido a eso, mis tres amados hermanos vampiros me encerraron. Me atraparon en el observatorio, en la torre más alta, vinculada por una maldición de sangre. Golpeé la puerta, impotente, explicando y suplicándoles que me dejaran salir. Damien, mi hermano mayor y jefe de nuestra familia, me atravesó con una mirada de fría decepción. Luego, me dio la espalda. —Tu egoísmo tiene un límite, Lilith. Clara es una humana frágil. ¡Tiene una afección cardíaca! ¿La obligaste a tragar esa inmundicia? ¿Intentabas matarla? No quiero volver a ver este lado cruel de ti. Quédate aquí y piensa en lo que has hecho. Ethan, la estrella de rock, y Julian, el arquitecto gótico, ni siquiera pudieron mirarme. Sus voces estaban tensas por la ira y el agotamiento. —¡Soportamos tus berrinches, pero no para que lastimaras a nuestra familia! Nos has fallado, Lilith. Quédate ahí dentro y comprende lo que hiciste mal. Luego, levantaron con cuidado a la "inconsciente" Clara y desaparecieron por el pasillo. Pero ellos no lo sabían. El observatorio solo debía abrirse por la noche, pero algo falló. Cuando llegó la mañana, la cúpula no se cerró. La luz del sol, mortal para nosotros, entró directamente. Mi poder se evaporó. Mis gritos se convirtieron en silencio. Me convertí en cenizas. Tres días después, mis hermanos regresaron con una Clara "recuperada". Solo entonces se acordaron de mí. No tenían idea de que el sol ya me había ejecutado.

En vísperas de la boda, la noticia de que la amante del prometido había dado a luz se volvió un escándalo. Julian Espinoza no esperó a que yo lo confrontara y habló con indiferencia. —No fue más que un accidente. Tú encárgate primero de la fiesta de compromiso. —Además, tu papá está en fase terminal de cáncer de estómago. Cancelar la alianza ahora no le conviene a ninguna de las dos familias. Esa misma noche faltó a la cena de compromiso, pero en sus redes sociales subió la foto de un bebé envuelto en mantas. Cuando marqué una videollamada, apareció dándole de comer con un biberón al recién nacido. —Últimamente estoy cuidando al niño y no tengo tiempo para ti. Ya sabes, en mi familia solo queda una rama masculina, el hijo es prioridad. Limpió la leche de la comisura de los labios del bebé y añadió: —Pero tranquila, cuando cumpla el mes lo mando a Inglaterra. En las fiestas importantes basta con que te muestres como si fueras su madre. El lugar de señora de la familia Espinoza siempre será tuyo. Yo me quedé mirando el anillo en su dedo anular, idéntico al mío, y solté una risa. —Este compromiso queda anulado. Él bufó con frialdad: —Armas tanto escándalo por una tontería. No seas tan caprichosa. Colgué de golpe la videollamada y marqué al número privado de su padre. —Dicen que anda buscando nueva esposa, ¿por qué no me considera a mí? Acariciando mi vientre, solté una risa baja: —Después de todo, tengo facilidad para embarazarme; los hijos que usted quiera, se los puedo dar. Qué soledad la de una familia con un solo heredero. Yo misma le daré varios hermanos para que al menos haya ruido en la casa.

Para nuestro séptimo aniversario, mi compañero, el Alfa Ethan, nos envió a mi cachorra y a mí al Altar de la Diosa de la Luna. Me dijo que era una sorpresa: para cumplirle a nuestra cachorra su sueño de ver una lluvia de meteoritos desde el pico más alto del territorio. Pero Ethan nunca llegó. Las runas protectoras a mis pies chisporrotearon y luego se apagaron. El suelo bajo nuestros pies comenzó a desmoronarse. Mi cachorra gritó, su pequeño cuerpo iba deslizándose hacia el abismo. Me abalancé, agarrándole la mano justo antes de que cayera por el borde. Grité su nombre a través de nuestro enlace mental. Noventa y nueve veces, se negó a responder. En mi centésimo grito, el enlace no solo se abrió, sino que se rompió por completo. No fue su voz la que respondió. Fueron sus sentidos, inundando los míos. Lo vi todo. A él. A otra loba. Y a él, enterrado en lo más profundo de ella. —Sabía que me amabas, Ethan —ronroneó su voz empalagosa—. Incluso sacrificaste a Marcus, solo para salvar a nuestro Leo de la enfermedad del alma. Haría lo que fuera por ti. La voz de Ethan era de terciopelo y hielo. —Para. Si Sera no me hubiera traicionado, nunca habrías tenido la oportunidad de gestar a mi heredero. Una vez que me deshaga de su otra cachorra, la bastarda de Julian, podremos volver a ser perfectos. Mi mundo se hizo añicos. Mi cachorro... Renegados. Siempre creí que los renegados me lo habían robado. Pero fue su propio padre. Lo sacrificó por una mentira. Con mis últimas fuerzas, llamé a Julian. —Romperé mi vínculo con Ethan —gruñí en el nuevo enlace—. Hazme tu Luna. A cambio, te ayudaré a quemar su manada hasta los cimientos.

Je peux te donner tout ce qu'elle ne peut pas, Julian. Divorce-la ! Pearl sursauta en entendant la voix féminine, elle était plus stable cette fois. Elle s'est figée. Non, ce n'est pas possible ! Je dois rêver. La voix de Julian était plus basse, mais elle entendit quand même quelques mots : « Je te l'ai dit, je m'en occupe, chérie ». « Vous dites cela depuis l'année dernière. Je refuse de partager un homme avec cet imbécile ! Si tu ne divorces pas bientôt, je le dirai à tout le monde, je veux dire à tout le monde. "Allez, bébé. On n'en est pas arrivé là ». Pearl en avait assez entendu. Saisissant la poignée de la porte, elle la tourna et ouvrit la porte. Il s’est ouvert et a heurté le mur derrière avec fracas.
