Leon Toca Boca

“But that’s not fair, Gunnar!” I protested, my voice barely rising above a whisper. Despite his blindness, I dared not look him in the eye. “This second-chance bond goes both ways. Why are you allowed to flirt with other women, but I’m not?” Gunnar growled fiercely, pushing me against the wall. “No one is flirting with anyone, Aqua. If I were you, I would forget about that healer because you’re not going anywhere. YOU. ARE. MINE.” -------------------------------------------------- Aqua, a third-tier submissive wolf, finds her peaceful world shattered when her lover, Leon, tricks her into a perilous plan to offer her virginity to the most ruthless and powerful alpha wolf in the lands: the Alpha King, Gunnar Buchanan. Furious and feeling betrayed, Gunnar initially wants her dead for the deception. However, he soon discovers that the weakest wolf in the pack is his second-chance mate, a bond that complicates everything. Determined to break the bond, Gunnar struggles with his own desires. He cannot fathom making Aqua his Luna Queen, yet something in her innocent blue eyes ignites a possessive fire within him. As the bond deepens, Aqua’s presence challenges his resolve and awakens feelings he thought were long buried. As Aqua transforms from a submissive wolf to a dominant one, she faces numerous trials, from jealous pack members to deadly external threats. Her bond with Gunnar, initially a curse, becomes a source of strength. But as she gains power, the question remains: Can she break the second-chance bond that binds them, or will she find that her destiny lies with the Alpha King?

El mismo día que me tocó dar a luz, la alumna de mi esposo —embarazada y con el orgullo atravesado— decidió largarse sola a escalar la Cordillera de los Andes. Mientras él se la pasaba buscándola sin dormir, como un desesperado, yo estaba en el hospital, desangrándome en un parto complicado que me mandó directo a terapia intensiva. Cuando por fin abrí los ojos, lo primero que vi fue al médico entregándole a mi esposo el parte donde decía que mi vida estaba en riesgo... y él, en vez de acercarse a darme un poco de consuelo, me aventó en la cara los papeles del divorcio. —Camila es mi mejor estudiante —me soltó, serio—. No me voy a quedar de brazos cruzados viendo cómo hace semejante locura. Tú vas a ser mamá, te toca aguantar. En esa vida no firmé. Apenas salí de la sala de partos, me fui directo a la universidad a denunciarlo por la relación que tenía con su alumna. A ella la terminaron sacando del posgrado, y la presión fue tan fuerte que un día se cortó la garganta delante de mí. Cuando él llegó, ya no había nada que hacer: dos vidas se habían ido de golpe. Él no dijo una sola palabra, organizó el entierro y después me trató como si nada hubiera pasado. Yo, ingenua, pensé que por fin la vida iba a darme un respiro. Pero el día que nuestra hija cumplió un año, él le pisó al acelerador y el carro en el que íbamos se fue directo al precipicio. Ese mismo día... se cumplía un año de la muerte de su alumna. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, estaba otra vez en la sala de partos, justo en el momento en que casi se me iba la vida.

At the contract-signing meeting, a major client casually asks our new technician if she can handle her alcohol. She immediately pours a glass of red wine over his head and says coolly, "This sort of socializing is a bad habit. I'm putting an end to it." Leon Langley, a top client who brings the company 300 million dollars in annual revenue, flies into a rage and tears up the contract on the spot. As the project lead, I bend over backward to apologize and drink with Mr. Langley until I'm hospitalized with gastric bleeding—just to salvage the deal. When I report the incident to my boss, he scolds me instead. "As the person in charge, you nearly ruined the project. Forget the three-million-dollar commission we planned to give you. Consider this a warning." After that, I put Hannah Storrie's name on the department's downsizing review list. She sneers. "I'm a top talent the boss poached at great expense. I'm not some cheap hostess who survives by smiling and drinking like you. "Firing me would be throwing the company down the drain. When that happens, you'll be begging me to come back." I ignore her. However, when the review period ends, the name on the layoff list turns out to be mine. My boss seizes the opportunity to announce that Hannah will replace me as the new sales director. "Clients are extremely important to us. You don't seriously think you're capable of landing them, do you? "Hannah's is more qualified, more tech-savvy, and prettier than you. She's clearly the better choice." I simply smile, turn around, and dial a number.

Mi hermana gemela menor, Emma Lawson, siempre ha sido la favorita de todos porque está enferma. Esa vez, una tormenta de nieve nos atrapó en la montaña y llegó el helicóptero de rescate con espacio solo para una persona más. Tengo cáncer terminal y estuve más que dispuesta a dejar que Emma ocupara mi lugar. Sin embargo, de repente, ella se agarró la cabeza y lloró porque se sentía mareada. Toda mi familia corrió a su lado y juntos la empujaron hacia la cabina sin siquiera dejar espacio para discusión. Mi esposo, Leon Ziegler, me tocó el brazo fracturado y dijo: —Sarah, tú tendrás que esperar al próximo helicóptero. Mi hija, Daria Ziegler, incluso me lanzó una bola de nieve. —La tía Emma está más enferma que tú. Deja de intentar quitarle el puesto. Solo hasta que el helicóptero despegó vi a Emma pegada a la ventana, sacándome la lengua con aire de suficiencia. Ella había estado mintiendo todo este tiempo. Cuando finalmente me rescataron, los médicos me dijeron que me quedaban tres días de vida. Entonces decidí cambiar todo lo que tenía por un poco del cariño de mi familia.

Na véspera do meu noivado, uma notícia bombástica explodiu nas redes sociais: a sugar baby do meu noivo tinha acabado de dar à luz. O escândalo estava em todo lugar. Antes mesmo que eu pudesse confrontar Thiago Monteiro, ele se antecipou a explicar com a calma de quem não devia nada: — Isso não passa de um acidente. Concentre-se no jantar de noivado. Além disso, seu pai está em estado terminal. Cancelar essa união agora não seria vantajoso para nossas famílias. Naquela noite, Thiago sequer apareceu no jantar. Em vez disso, postou no Instagram uma foto do recém-nascido. — Tenho cuidado do bebê, então não tenho tempo para você. Na minha família, há gerações só nasce um herdeiro por vez. Essa criança é muito importante. — Disse ele, limpando a boca do bebê com delicadeza, sem culpa. — Mas fique tranquila. Quando o bebê completar um mês, mando para a Inglaterra. Em ocasiões importantes, você pode aparecer como mãe dele. O título de Sra. Monteiro será sempre seu. Fixei o olhar na aliança idêntica à minha, agora um símbolo vazio. Soltei uma risada amarga: — Thiago, é melhor cancelarmos o noivado. Ele riu, carregado de desdém: — Vai causar tudo isso por bobagem? Pare de agir como criança. Sem hesitar, encerrei a videochamada e disquei o número particular de Henrique Monteiro, pai dele. — Ouvi dizer que procura uma nova esposa. Que tal considerar a mim? — Perguntei, acariciando meu ventre com um sorriso irônico. — Tenho fertilidade invejável. Quantos filhos quiser, posso dar. "A família Monteiro sempre teve tão poucos herdeiros que chega a ser melancólico. Acho que está na hora de eu garantir que Thiago ganhe mais alguns irmãos para animar as coisas."
