Novel & Cerita Katia Prequel

Max approached me again, his hand raised and pointed toward me, “Lady Catriona, think before you speak.” A sense of danger enveloped me, making me to squeeze my eyes shut. I thought he would punish me for making baseless allegations. Yet, to my astonishment, I felt the warmth of his large hand. He slipped it over the top of my head. Was he patting my head? He whispered in my ear, “Now, the battle is about to start. Return to your place. I’ll handle the rest and become your Beta, my future Alpha.” Then he took my hand in his sizeable one, his calloused palm pressing against mine. Raising my hand close to his lips, he placed a kiss on its back, smile at me before push me out of the room.

If not for the love she had for her sister, then for the regret of not treating her well and allowing a feud to come between them. This might be the only way she would ever repay her sister. ...

If only she could come up with a plan to make that happen. Her sister passed away here in this city. Every clue she might need would be here. And she also had a job to return to. The job she had pretended to abandon in order to marry Aaron.

ISAAC Katya thinks she's so clever. She wore black down the aisle, convinced it would rattle me, invite gasps, sidelong glances, maybe even a muttered curse. It works, though not for the reason she expects. The instant I caught sight of her, lips painted blood-red, eyes blazing, that sinful dress skimming her perfectly shaped body, I know I could stare at her forever. She's absolutely breathtaking, and more than that, she's mine. In a few minutes she'll belong to me for the rest of our lives. I plan to see her in and, better yet, outof a thousand scandalous dresses.

Heads turned toward Elara, then back to Ariana. “My son?” someone whispered. Robert stepped forward, fury flashing. “You mean to replace—” “Replace?” Ariana’s laugh was velvet and venom. “I simply recognize strength where it lives. An heir should be…stable.” Her eyes focused on Elara’s scorched fingertips. “Not… combustible.” Derek chuckled under his breath. “Ice meets fire. Delicious.” Elara’s heart thundered. The goddess stirred, molten and eager. Heat crawled up her arms, begging to ignite.

It was that cold, analytical intelligence that shone out of a four-year-old’s gaze—the same intelligence that was currently making Julian treat his own wedding like a corporate merger. The thought was insane. It was impossible. Katia had never mentioned Julian. Julian had never mentioned her. My brother had spent years looking for a woman named "Kat," but New York was full of Kats. And Katia? She was a single mother who had built an empire out of spite and survival. There was no way their paths had crossed in that way. And yet, looking at Julian's face, I couldn't unsee it. The resemblance wasn't just physical; it was spiritual. It was haunting.

“Catia daughter of the former Yama and sister to the last traitor. You are sentence for the following crimes, destruction of the kingdom, killing of thousands of individuals, plans to overthrow the current king, the death of the former Yama who was your father. Death to the mother of the supposed first child of the current Yama, death of your siblings, three brothers and a sister and finally the resurrection of a mavolent spirit.” “Father?” Catia asked. “Yes.” I responded, feeling sympathy for my sister who looked every bit like the fragile babe she was, the very first time I saw her. “Sorens was aware of that fact, that was why he smuggled me out of the palace with his brother and the infor

Katla I blinked, shocked at my surroundings as sun streamed in through the windows, landing on the large bed. I looked at the arms wrapped around me and heard his soft snores behind me.

My fiancé was Alpha Damien of Silverburn, and he was, unquestionably, my mate.I blushed as remembered the night before. My father was dead, Viti is Iceclaw Alpha, and Hekla was his mate. Fuck.

Katerina glared at Val before she finally left the pool area. Val didn't think that until they were older, Katerina would never forget their father's sin. Katerina is the daughter of Val’s father to its mistress, who apparently still wasn’t considered being a second wife. Val accepted this incident even though it was the reason his mother, who was the first wife of his father, had left them when he was still young. He never thought Katerina would be the one who could not accept him as their father's legitimate child. The hate she’s been keeping for almost 35 years will never, ever be erased.
