Khyber Pass

He abruptly snatches me, closing the distance between us, putting his hand on the back of my head. All the hair on my body rises on alert; one wrong move I might shapeshift in here. His masculine scent infiltrated me with so much finesse. Damn, he smells divine. "What the hell--" "Shut your mouth; those thugs are after me; I need your help." His baritone tone is manly, very manly which catches me off guard a little. No one can lay a finger on me; he is the first man ever to touch me. I'm with a stranger in a strange position. How annoying can this night be? "Alright, Mister, I will give you three seconds to let me go, or else you might lose your hands." My tone is cold and dangerous. I’m hoping he heeds my warning. The tall man keeps leaning forward to me, putting our bodies in an intimate, awkward setting. "One, Two, Thre--" He steers his legs forward. My heart was beating a mile per second. I can't believe he is doing this! Feeling his warm palms cupping my face, the next thing I know, he is kissing me. His lips taste like strawberries. I got an entry pass into heaven!

Sam and I have been married for ten years. He always said he would give me the wedding of my dreams. However, three days before the ceremony, my eyes, which had been blind for the past six months after saving Sam’s life, miraculously regained vision. The first thing I saw when I opened them was Sam tangled in bed with his pretty secretary, Alisa. The bed was still shaking while Alisa typed on her phone. She showed it to him, smirking. [Sam, we're out of condoms. Why not ask your blind wife to grab one for us?] Sam’s veins bulged at his temple. His eyes darted toward me in panic. Alisa, however, scoffed and typed again. [What are you so scared of? Your wife’s blind. What’s she gonna see?] Sam sighed in resignation. “Hazel, can you pass me the box of cigarettes from the nightstand?” That cigarette box he mentioned was clearly labeled: Durex Ultra-Thin—Bare Feel. My heart shattered, and I booked a flight to Rockbridge before the wedding. When Sam came running after me, hysterical, I said coldly to him, “Sam. I can see.”

RÉSUMÉ Autrefois fière Luna de la Meute de la Lune Croissante, Stephanie Voss a tout donné—son amour, son pouvoir, son avenir—à son compagnon. Mais lorsqu’il amène sa meilleure amie dans leur foyer, la déclare stérile et la rejette publiquement, Stephanie perd tout en un seul moment cruel. Laissée pour morte et trahie par tous ceux en qui elle avait confiance, elle adresse une dernière prière à la Déesse de la Lune… Et se réveille avant la trahison. Cette fois, Stephanie n’est plus la même Luna naïve. Elle est plus intelligente, plus froide, et prête à brûler tous les ponts si cela signifie obtenir justice. Avec l’aide de Raymond Blackthorn, un Alpha puissant avec un passé douloureux qui lui est propre, elle transformera sa douleur en pouvoir, et sa vengeance en légende. Mais des secrets rôdent dans l’ombre, et tout le monde ne souhaite pas la voir s’élever.

Liora pensait que ce soir serait la plus belle de sa vie. Elle était censée devenir Luna, aux côtés de Kaelen. Mais au lieu de cela, elle est trahie devant tout le monde. Humiliée et le cœur brisé, elle fait un choix désespéré : elle choisit un inconnu, l'Alpha Dalin, comme compagnon. Dalin est fort, froid et impitoyable. Il l'emmène avec lui, lui imposant des règles strictes qu'elle ne peut transgresser. Liora est piégée dans une nouvelle meute, loin de tout ce qu'elle connaît, et forcée d'obéir à un homme qu'elle connaît à peine. Mais l'inconnu n'est pas n'importe quel Alpha. Il connaît son passé, et les secrets de cette nuit lointaine refont surface. Alors que la peur, la colère et le désir se mêlent, Liora doit survivre à cette nouvelle vie, ou se perdre à jamais.

She has always been in love with him. He has always been in love with her. They always thought that they will always be together. Forever. Then an unexpected accident separated them forever. And the hands of fate once again reconnected them. But she couldn't remember him. While he remembers everything about her. Will she find him once again in her heart to remember him? Shane Anderson just proposed to his girlfriend Katarina Sebastian inside Central Park when a female stranger happened to pass by, dropped something on the pavement, picked it up, and turned to look at him. Enara. He was caught transfixed by the sight looking back at him. She looked like Enara-his childhood friend back when he was still in Lunara City of the Moon-before he disappeared there and fell from the sky twenty years ago and landed himself in New York City. Rana Fielders. As far as anyone knows she's just like any regular New Yorker working in the city managing her A&V Shop selling antiques and vintages. Except she doesn't remember anything before she was eighteen. Then, she crosses the path of a golden hair stranger calling him Enara. Do they know each other? Because clearly, she doesn't. But he might just know how to unlock her past.

La vie d'Elara n'était qu'une trahison : fille illégitime, elle a été élevée comme une Cendrillon sans loup, méprisée par la Meute de son propre père. Sa seule valeur ? Devenir la Compagne de l'Alpha dominant, Rhys, à qui elle a donné un héritier malgré l'absence de sa propre forme de loup. Mais lorsque Seraphina, la femme du passé de Rhys, est revenue, les pièges incessants de la rivale et le manque cruel de confiance de Rhys ont forcé Elara à prendre une décision radicale. Elle a fui. Deux ans plus tard, alors que la Meute de Rhys s'effondre sous les menaces externes, il se prépare à accueillir un puissant allié: la femme qu'il a méprisée, est l'héritière d'une lignée bien plus ancienne. Le temps de la soumission est révolu. La seule Luna qu'il ait jamais eue est de retour pour le détrôner.

Elaine a passé sa vie à se faire dire qu'elle n'avait pas d'importance. Elle a été maltraitée, affamée et humiliée par la meute Redblood, mais Ronan, l'Alpha, lui a promis un avenir à son retour de l'entraînement. Un mois plus tard, il était différent de l'homme qui lui avait promis le monde. Il a revendiqué une autre femme, Kira Wales, comme étant sa Luna, la laissant brisée et brisée. Accusée pour un crime qu'elle n'a pas commis et condamnée à mort, Elaine s'échappe de justesse pour tomber entre les mains de Lucian, l'impitoyable Alpha de la meute d'Hallowcreek. Il lui épargne la vie, mais seulement en tant qu'esclave personnelle. Tiraillée entre l'homme qui l'a trahie et celui qui ne recule devant rien pour la réclamer, Elaine doit se battre pour survivre, prouver son innocence et décider où appartient réellement son cœur.

"You want this right" I hear him say as he trailed his fingers along my thighs setting my body ablaze with his advances. The feel of his cold fingertips along with his long nails left a ticklish feeling as he trailed along my sensitive skin. I couldn't help but let out a loud moan as I felt him place his hands at the meeting of our thighs. His every touch was fire and I was willing to burn in that fire. -- Alyssa - He was a Beast. Vicious. Cold. Cruel. Scary. Dominant. Possessive. There wasn't a single bad word that hadn't been used to describe him. My parents had arranged for him to have been mated to my sister. If she hadn't run away that is. And I ended up being his mate. I was only doing it for the pack. Not for my parents, not for myself, not even for Jenny. Just for the pack. But I hadn't expected that things would turn out the way they eventually did. Rurac - I didn't think I had it in me to fall so madly.That's exactly what had happened with her. I had thought it was just an attraction. Something that would pass with time. But then feelings had gotten involved and before I knew it I'd been completely gone.

Just because I point out a mistake in the intern, Lester Hale's proposal that can cost the company millions of dollars, he feels embarrassed and goes straight to Sandra Wendell, the CEO, threatening to quit. The next second, she storms into my office and starts grilling me. "Couldn't you have spoken to him privately? Lester's young, and his ego's fragile. Why did you have to humiliate him in front of everyone? Don't forget, his dad's a major shareholder. I'm giving you two options now. "One, I'll promote Lester, give him a raise, and you'll become his assistant. That way, I'll agree to officially announce our relationship. Two, keep acting like this, and we break up." When I remain silent, she smirks triumphantly. "I knew you'd never pass up a chance to go public with our relationship. Now, you can clear your office for Lester. Later—" But I calmly cut her off, "Sorry, but I choose the second option, and I'm resigning. I wish you and Lester a happily ever after."
