Justin Jefferson Drawing

My boyfriend, Zayne Jefferson, is particularly gifted in certain ways. Every time we're intimate, he insists on trying something new. More than once, he gently coaxes me, saying, "Once you graduate, we'll get married." And I believe him. I throw myself into my studies, pushing hard to finish my credits early. At the same time, I secretly watch all kinds of videos at night and read up on techniques. I want to keep his body satisfied. One night, I stay up too late studying and miss curfew. I run to the bar to find him, where I overhear him chatting with his friends. "Zayne, is your girlfriend really that wild in bed?" one guy asks. "Of course. He trained her himself!" another guy says. "What about Yasmin?" Zayne exhales a stream of smoke, his eyes soft. "She's different. She's pure." In that moment, I begin to hate him. Back on campus, I make a call to my professor. "That secret program you mentioned… I want in." From this day on, my life belongs only to my career.

When I'm 25, I learn about Hendrick Jefferson living it up with my stepsister, Yvette Rivera. So, I go to my father and ask to marry Hendrick's brother, Jeremy Jefferson. In my past life, I married Hendrick as I wished, yet he hooked up with Yvette the day after our wedding. He brought her everywhere with him, announcing to the world that she was his female companion. He told her to smash the necklace my late mother left for me and indulged in her when she pushed me into the pool. He even hired online trolls to spread rumors about me. Yvette came to me to gloat. "I'm the one Ricky loves—he only married you to make his family shut up! He didn't want to touch you when you were younger, let alone now that you're 25 and old. You need to learn to know your place!" Now that I've been reborn, I decide to give them what they want. Unexpectedly, Hendrick crashes my wedding with Jeremy, claiming that I'm the one he truly loves.

Menjelang hari perkiraaan lahir, pembukuan senjata Keluarga Gumar tiba tiba mengalami kebocoran besar. Petinggi keluarga langsung mengambil keputusan. Mereka menyuruhku, istri pemimpin yang katanya tidak ada kerjaan, pergi sendiri ke gudang senjata untuk melakukan pemeriksaan. Aku kira itu hanya tugas rutin biasa. Tak kusangka, adik angkat suamiku, Mikha, memanfaatkan kesempatan itu untuk meledakkan seluruh gudang senjata. Ledakannya memekakkan telinga dan kobaran api menelan seluruh langit. Aku tertindih di bawah reruntuhan yang roboh, rasa sakit di perutku seperti disayat pisau. Namun, aku tidak menghubungi Justin lewat jalur pribadinya yang berprioritas paling tinggi. Aku malah memilih mengirim sinyal minta tolong kepada ayahku. Karena di kehidupan sebelumnya, pada detik pertama ledakan terjadi, aku menggunakan jalur prioritas itu untuk menghubunginya. Anakku akhirnya selamat. Namun, Mikha hancur tak bersisa dalam ledakan itu. Justin memang berkata tidak menyalahkanku. Dia mengatakan bahwa Mikha hanyalah orang luar, tidak sepenting ahli waris. Dia bahkan menghabiskan sejumlah besar uang untuk mendatangkan ahli kandungan yang menjagaku 24 jam dan menyuruhku tenang menunggu persalinan. Namun, tepat pada hari aku melahirkan. Dia sendiri yang mengunci aku dan anakku di dalam gudang kosong yang disiram bensin, lalu membakar kami hidup-hidup. Sebelum kesadaranku lenyap, lewat kobaran api yang menjulang tinggi, aku melihat wajahnya yang kejam seperti iblis. "Kalau bukan karena kamu sengaja mengulur waktu, Mikha nggak akan mati. Kamu pikir kamu bisa menipuku dengan pura-pura jadi korban tak bersalah? Mimpi!" "Kamu suka bermain api, 'kan? Baik, akan kubiarkan kamu merasakan sendiri keputusasaan terakhir Mikha!" Saat aku membuka mata lagi, aku sudah kembali ke lokasi ledakan gudang senjata itu.

(Bxb) Eric Valence thought finding a job as an editor for a well-known author named Draven H. Malcolm was the beginning of his writing career. He had no idea that it would also be the beginning of his love story. *** "You're so clueless, it bothers me." He frowned, "What does that mean-" "You never wondered why I gave you all the best things on my floor - the closest desk, drinks from my office, my newest project. I even went to your house and picked you up to make sure you weren't late." "My portfoli-" "There are twenty three others with the same experience as yours, that was an excuse," he admitted, peering into Eric's eyes and daring him to look away. Eric didn't. Draven sighed, "The reason I got mad that day..." he paused for a moment, hesitating again but deciding to let it all out, "the reason I got mad is because I heard you kissed Jason, which I wasn't too pleased about but then seeing you and Justin together..." He never finished his sentence, and Eric raised an eyebrow, "What about Justin and I?" "I feel like you're doing this on purpose," Draven chuckled, examining Eric's confused face. "I'm not sure what you're talking about-" "I like you," Draven said clearly with his entire diaphragm, expression it as loud as he could for Eric to understand. Eric felt his throat squeeze itself shut, no oxygen coming in or out. "I like you, a lot more than I thought, Eric," he breathed. Eric was unable to believe it, shook his head and looked away for moment, before meeting his gaze again. "Why me?" he asked quietly. Draven shrugged his shoulders, eyeing Eric with adoration and admiration, "I'm not sure either, but I want you to be mine."

Every year communities around he world make a sacrifice to the werewolf packs within their areas to appease them. These sacrifices buy the communities one year of peace and protection.

Being an Omega is the last thing I want, especially since it makes some Alphas think of you as a breeding machine.

My heat is drawing closer which means that I only have a few weeks to find an Alpha willing enough to help me through it without bonding me.
