Last Sacrifice

Perfection was the curse. I was born into wealth, beauty, influence, and a family empire that stretched across continents. People envied my life, not knowing it was nothing more than a gilded prison. The only thing that ever felt real was ballet, the passion my parents forbade because it brought them no power, no profit, no leverage. My parents; greedy, ambitious, unfillable, hid their cruelty beneath luxury. And on my eighteenth birthday, they revealed the ultimate betrayal. I was engaged to a powerful man twice. . . no, three times my age. A man feared across Europe. A man whose hands were stained with secrets the world pretended not to see. They sold me to strengthen an alliance. So I ran. Barefoot, shaking, heartbroken. I stole one of our visitor's chopper and fled to Sicily, thinking distance could save me. I thought I escaped the monsters who owned my life. But I only ran into a darker one. Because Sicily is his territory; Aldrick Moretti, the shadow king of the Italian underworld. Cold. Untouchable. Beautiful in the most devastating way. The man people whisper about as if speaking his name is a sin. A man with eyes that see through lies. . . including mine. And the moment he found me trespassing on his land, bleeding, terrified, and wearing the remnants of a runaway bride. . . He didn’t return me. He didn’t free me. He claimed me. Not as a business deal. Not as an alliance. But as something far more dangerous. He became my captor, my protector, my obsession, and the forbidden flame I should never have touched. Because in his world, love is not tender. It’s a weapon. And I am the sacrifice wrapped in a veil he refuses to let go.

Destruction of their marriage in exchange for the life of his beloved husband. Will the wife's sacrifice be worth it? Is he worthy to fight for? Is he capable to save his wife? Their marriage? Let's get to know Andrei and Eliana Buenaventura.

Amber Celeste Starling offered herself payment to her father's debt. Her sister Victoria was supposed to be payment enough, but seeing her sister's bright future, Amber simply cannot let her sister suffer. Thus, she offered herself. A 'Word of Honor', a promise that one day, one of Alpha George's daughter will be Kevin Black Eclipse's property. Another female to bear his child. But what if Cena Black, Kevin's mother said otherwise and had a beta claim her instead? Marking her as the pack's bitch. Will Amber accept her fate? And simply accept all the punishment she doesn't deserve? Or would she fight back a destiny that isn't hers to begin with.

Estelle grew up being surrounded by werewolves. The Alpha and the future Alpha always considered her as being one of the wolf despite not being part of the pack. She was a human. However, her reflexes were much faster than any human's, as well as her senses. Sometimes, she is considered as a wolf because her resistance was equal to some of them. Werewolves have mates, the women who are capable of taming those beast. It is assured that when a wolf turn sixteen, they can percieved the essence of their mate and there were no exception to the rule. Estelle didn't know if it was her idea or her hallucination but ever since she was a child, she already know who her mate is. The problem? He's a and she's a human. That would be impossible. The other problem? That guy is her best friend. The biggest problem? He already swore to know his mate and it is not Estelle.

Mother, I have found the man I love - A beast! Duke Alaric - the only heir of his dead parents - was never meant to be loved. Tagged a demon right from his birth because of his very bizarre features and the circumstances surrounding his birth, he is locked away in the manor to live out his days away from the people. The same people who believe that to tame this evil from unleashing wrath on them, should be appeased with a virgin bride at every blood moon. Elisa, kidnapped from home, is the next victim of sacrifice to this blood thirsty demon, but what she finds behind the ancient and eerie doors of the suspicious manor is far from bloody and demonic. What did she find in this world of blood oaths, broken legacies, and forbidden love? And can an innocent girl born of betrayal tame this demon, or will she become the very power that destroys him?

Dans ma vie précédente, l'Alpha Léon, qui devait normalement célébrer la cérémonie de marquage avec moi, avait changé son choix pour ma sœur Rose le jour de la cérémonie. En voyant la complicité entre eux, un sentiment de honte m'avait envahie en un instant. Je voulais m'avancer pour leur demander pourquoi ils m'avaient fait ça, quand soudainement notre meute avait été attaquée et nous étions tous les trois morts dans ce chaos. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'ai découvert que j'étais retournée à ce jour de la cérémonie de marquage. Cette fois-ci, j'ai choisi de leur donner ma bénédiction. Après avoir aidé les membres à rétablir la paix, j'ai décidé de me rendre dans la société humaine. Je pensais que je ne les reverrais jamais dans cette vie. Mais trois ans plus tard, je les ai retrouvés lors d'une fête d'anniversaire. À ce moment-là, Rose était blottie contre Léon, feignant la surprise en me saluant. « Claire ! Comment se fait-il que tu sois à une fête aussi prestigieuse ? » « Tu étais partie vivre dans la société humaine, non ? » Voyant mon silence, Rose a souri méchamment. « Tu n'arrives pas à vivre dans la société humaine, n'est-ce pas ? Tu veux donc revenir au sein de la meute ? » Léon, de son côté, m'a vue et une expression de dégoût a traversé ses traits. « Même si tu t'agenouilles devant moi maintenant, je ne te permettrai pas de revenir dans la meute. » « Mais, en tant que ma servante, tu as encore ta place. Nous pourrons continuer comme avant. » J'ai esquissé un léger sourire. La raison pour laquelle je me trouvais ici était que mon compagnon était le nouveau président de l'Alliance des loups. Cette fête d'anniversaire, la plus exclusive, était organisée spécialement pour moi par lui.

In a kingdom ruled by magic and shadowed by secrets, Princess Elara was born to uphold a prophecy—one that demands her heart, her blood, and ultimately, her sacrifice. Magic belongs to the elite, and power is passed through bloodlines, but nothing prepared her for the storm of desire and danger that would unravel everything she believed. Vesper Moretti, the ruthless heir to a deadly mafia empire, was the first man to shake her world. Cold, calculating, and intoxicatingly powerful, he vanished without a trace—leaving behind a shattered heart and unanswered questions. Now, he’s back… alive, dangerous, and claiming what was once his. Torn between Vesper’s dark pull, Kael’s fierce loyalty, and Dain’s quiet rebellion, Elara is caught in a web of betrayal, prophecy, and passion. As the prophecy unfolds, one truth becomes chillingly clear: only one man can survive the end—and her choice will ignite war or salvation. With ancient powers awakening and the line between love and ruin blurring, Elara must uncover the truth buried in blood and magic… before her kingdom, and her heart, are lost forever.

Alors que mon accouchement approchait, un trou énorme est soudainement apparu dans la comptabilité d'armement de la famille Gauthier. Les hauts responsables ont immédiatement pris une décision. Moi, l'épouse du chef de la famille, celle qui n'avait soi-disant rien de mieux à faire, j'ai été envoyée personnellement vérifier l'arsenal. Je pensais que ce n'était qu'une simple formalité. Mais je ne m'attendais pas à ce que Léa Morel, la sœur adoptive de mon mari Gabriel Gauthier, profite de l'occasion pour faire exploser tout l'arsenal. La détonation était assourdissante. Les flammes ont illuminé tout le ciel. J'ai été coincée sous les décombres effondrés, incapable de bouger. Une douleur violente m'a lacéré le ventre, comme si une lame me déchirait de l'intérieur. Pourtant, je n'ai pas appelé la ligne privée prioritaire de mon mari. À la place, j'ai envoyé un signal de détresse à mon père, parce que, dans ma vie précédente, j'avais contacté Gabriel dès la première seconde de l'explosion, en utilisant cette ligne prioritaire. L'enfant avait donc finalement survécu. Mais Léa avait disparu dans l'explosion, sans laisser la moindre trace. En apparence, Gabriel disait ne pas m'en vouloir. « Léa n'était qu'une étrangère de la famille. Rien n'est plus important qu'un héritier. » Il avait même dépensé une fortune pour faire venir des spécialistes en obstétrique, chargés de veiller sur moi chaque jour, me répétant sans cesse de rester tranquille et d'attendre sereinement l'accouchement. Mais le jour où j'avais accouché, tout avait changé. Il m'avait enfermée de ses propres mains avec mon enfant dans un entrepôt abandonné imbibé d'essence, avant d'y mettre le feu. Nous avons brûlé vifs. « Si tu n'avais pas fait exprès de gagner du temps, Léa ne serait jamais morte. Tu crois vraiment pouvoir me tromper en jouant la victime innocente ? Tu rêves ! » « Tu aimes jouer avec le feu ? Très bien. Je vais te faire ressentir toi-même le désespoir qu'elle a connu à la fin ! » Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, je suis revenue au moment même de l'explosion de l'arsenal.

“You’re a blank, John. A hollow shell. Do you really think I’d tie the future of the Card family to a man who can’t even manifest a drop of instinct?” Caleb’s voice was like a wire garrote, tightening around John’s throat. “Carl is the heir. You’re just the mistake we kept in the basement.” John Mark was the Syndicate’s golden prince—until his power never came. In a world where the Hale Mafia rules through raw, predatory instinct, being a "blank" is a death sentence. When his biological brother, Carl Cole, returns to claim his birthright, John isn't just pushed aside; he’s erased. His brothers look at him with loathing, his father treats him like a stain on the ledger, and his fiancé, Caleb Card, discards him for the new, powered heir. But the city is rotting. The Abyss King, Morcant, demands a soul to keep the shadows at bay. With nothing left to lose and fifteen days to live, John signs the Sacrifice Certificate in secret. He’ll give his life to save the family that hates him, paying back his debts in blood. He dons a red coat and a porcelain mask, becoming the nameless "Red Savior" the city worships—while by day, he is the "useless" son the Hales kick into the dirt. As the clock ticks toward the final jump, John discovers his power didn't vanish—it was stolen. Now, trapped in a house of vipers, John must decide: Does he reveal the truth and watch his family’s world burn, or does he leap into the dark to save the monsters who broke him? The Abyss is hungry. And the man they called a failure is the only one who can feed it.
