She came looking for a fresh start. She found something far more complicated. Beatrice has spent years keeping herself afloat — working jobs that drain her, paying bills that never shrink, going home each night to a silence that grows heavier by the day. When a housekeeper position at one of the city's most lavish estates falls into her hands, it feels like the universe finally offering her something gentle. Something quiet. She didn't expect them. Silas is everything danger looks like when it's dressed in elegance. Refined, wickedly intelligent, and devastatingly charming — he speaks in carefully chosen words and looks at her like she's already a secret he intends to keep. Atticus is something else entirely. Raw. Unpredictable. The kind of man whose presence fills a room before he even enters it. He looks at Beatrice like she belongs to him — like he decided that long before she had any say in the matter. And God help anyone who disagrees. Beatrice keeps her head down and her walls up. But walls mean nothing in a house like this, with men like these. Their world is intoxicating. Their attention is impossible to escape. The brothers take what they want. The brothers keep what they claim. And they have claimed her.

In high school, Trixie already had a crush on Ken even though she knew his secret, that Ken was gay. Many women like him but what they don't know is that like them, Ken also likes men. When they graduated from college, Ken was forced to marry Trixie because of their parents, even against his will, he agreed even though he already had a boyfriend. Is there any hope for a gay like Ken to love the girl he hates the most? How many years will pass before Ken realizes how much Trixie loves him? Are they always like dogs and cats that always fight?

Titre : Le Secret de l'Alpha Oublié Anya Valera a transformé l'agonie du Rejet de son Mate, il y a cinq ans, en une détermination de fer. En tant qu'enquêtrice privée, elle opère seule dans l'ombre, jurant de ne plus jamais plier face à l'autorité d'un Alpha ou à la trahison du destin. Mais lorsque des meurtres macabres frappent sa ville, l'enquête force Anya à revenir sur le territoire de la meute corrompue qu'elle a fuie. Le premier indice qu'elle découvre est lié au passé le plus dangereux de son peuple : un symbole archaïque associé à l' Alpha Masqué . Il apparaît dans la nuit, un homme d'une domination écrasante, vêtu d'ombres et d'un masque de métal : Kael Thorne , l'Alpha que tout le monde croyait banni ou mort. Kael est insaisissable, lié au mystère par une ancienne malédiction, et son regard doré est le seul point de lumière dans le danger. Contrainte par un péril imminent à fuir et à se cacher avec lui, Anya doit faire face à une proximité suffocante. Chaque contact ravive une chimie primitive qu'elle croyait éteinte. Kael affirme qu'il l'aide par sement, mais l'attraction entre eux est incontrôlable. Bientôt, la vérité éclate dans une révélation déchirante : Kael n'est pas seulement un Alpha — il est son véritable Mate, l'Alpha Oublié qui détient la clé de la corruption de la meute et la raison secrète de son rejet initial. Le destin leur offre une seconde chance, mais elle est enveloppée de mensonges, de trahisons et d'une guerre qui pourrait détruire leur monde. Peut-elle faire confiance à l'Alpha qui la protège, mais qui cache un secret si dangereux qu'il l'a brisée une première fois ? Et si le Rejet était la première étape d'une destinée bien plus sombre ?

Juliet Wagner had been by Morgan Byron's side for so long that she knew she was merely a pair of eyes for his beloved moonlight. Scattered throughout the city, there were countless others like her, serving as substitutes. They might be like her eyes, or her mouth, or her nose. But she knew they would never form the real her. Until, someone who looked exactly like her appeared.

"Say it," Tenz growled, yanking her hips against the hood of his blacked-out car, his hand wrapped around her throat like a necklace made of danger. Kyoline's breath shuddered as his mouth traced her jaw, his fingers sliding under the hem of her leather skirt, teasing, threatening. "Say you're mine, or I'll make you say it with your teeth clenched and your legs shaking," he hissed, dragging his tongue along her collarbone. She smirked through the haze of lust and war. "I'm not yours, Tenz... I'm just letting you play with me until someone better comes to steal me." "Someone like who?" he spat. A cold voice answered from behind the shadows. "Like me," Isaac said. And just like that... the chaos began. --- Kyoline Diego was born of blood, betrayal, and gunfire. A mafia princess with ash in her veins and a Glock in her purse. Her childhood ended the day her father-a respected Made Man-was assassinated. Left for dead, she crawled from the ruins with nothing but vengeance and two younger siblings she'd kill for. Now eighteen and jaded, Kyoline bartends for mob rats by night, runs guns for a price, and slays in gold heels by morning. Love? It's not on the agenda. Survival is. Enter Tenz Jersey-her inked-up, lie-laced mafia beau. The man who f*cks like a god and lies like a sermon. He gives her fire, chaos, and a reason to breathe. He also gives her bruises she wears like medals and promises that vanish like smoke. She tells herself he's enough. Until Isaac. Cold. Calculating. Beautiful in a way that feels like a bullet wound. He shoves her into an unmarked SUV, claims he's NYPD, feeds her lies and cannoli-then laughs while she figures out he's actually the most lethal hitman.....

Mon petit ami de dix ans m'a quittée soudainement pour épouser ma petite sœur dans un mariage éclair. Peu après, Jacques Sartre, le plus jeune professeur de l'Université Royale, a publié une déclaration sur le site de l'université, annonçant ouvertement ses fiançailles avec moi. Pendant sept ans, il a été attentionné, dévoué, comme si j'étais l'unique amour de sa vie. Jusqu'au jour où je l'ai entendu parler à un collègue : « Rose est désormais la guérisseuse la plus prometteuse de l'Université Royale. Tu comptes continuer à jouer la famille heureuse avec Amélie ? » « Mais pour que Rose puisse vivre tranquillement, je vais continuer ma relation avec Amélie. Comme ça, Amélie ne menacera pas la famille de Rose. » Silencieuse derrière la porte, j'ai écouté sa voix calme réduire mes sept années d'amour à un « jeu de rôle ». Dans son carnet de recherche, chaque page portait le nom de Rose : « Que les recherches de Rose avancent bien. » « Que mon aimée Rose soit la femme la plus heureuse. » … « Rose, je passerai ma vie avec une femme que je n'aime pas, pour voir ton sourire chaque jour. » Sept ans de vie commune, et tout n'était qu'un rêve. Le jour de notre septième anniversaire, je suis montée dans la cabine de téléphérique que j'avais réservée depuis longtemps. Et à l'aube, à plus de mille mètres d'altitude, j'ai ouvert la porte de la cabine. J'ai coupé ma connexion mentale avec Jacques, avalé la potion qui pouvait dissoudre notre lien, et j'ai sauté. Quand Jacques a appris la nouvelle, il a immédiatement mobilisé l'équipe de recherche la plus professionnelle de l'Université Royale pour mener une opération de sauvetage sans précédent afin de retrouver mon corps. Dans la vallée, il a hurlé mon nom encore et encore, comme si ses remords tardifs pouvaient me ramener à la vie.
