Linked Horizon Guren No Yumiya

It was Christmas Eve. Once again, my parents left me alone at home, chasing triple pay at work. However, after twenty years of the same lonely holiday, I couldn’t take it anymore. I didn’t want to sit in the quiet house by myself again, so I packed up some sandwiches and went to them. What I didn’t expect was to see them stepping out of a luxury car, arms linked with a boy who looked about my age, laughing like they didn’t have a care in the world, heading straight into a five-star hotel. “Mom, Dad, is it okay to leave Suzie all alone at home like that?” My mom waved it off and said, “It’s fine. She’s used to it.” My dad just brushed it off with a chuckle. “She’s nothing like you. You're our real treasure.” Upon hearing that, I turned and walked away. They'd been pretending to be broke all these years, lying to me about working overtime, about scraping by. Well, fine. If they don’t want me, I’m done wanting them, too.

Meu marido Alfa, Ryder, sempre detestou o som de um filhote a chorar. Mas, recentemente, ele começou a cuidar do filhote recém-nascido da minha irmã adotiva, ficando ao lado dele no berçário todas as noites até o amanhecer. Toda vez que Ryder saía do nosso quarto para o berçário, uma dor forte e inexplicável perfurava meu peito. Essa agonia durava a noite inteira, até o amanhecer, quando ele voltava. Eu finalmente tinha chegado ao meu limite. No Festival da Lua Cheia, anunciei na frente de toda a alcateia que estava rejeitando nosso Laço de Companheiro. A conexão mental da alcateia explodiu em sussurros de que a batalha havia danificado minha mente. Uma luz dourada acendeu nos olhos de Ryder enquanto ele me encarava, descrente. — Por eu estar ocupado demais para verificar se você estava bem quando se feriu, você está rejeitando nosso laço por causa de um filhote de seis meses? Eu não o encarei. Em vez disso, meu olhar se demorou na leve marca de batom borrada dentro da gola dele. Minha voz tremeu, mas não vacilou. — Já que você ama tanto o filhote dela, assim que nosso laço for rompido, você poderá ser abertamente o pai.

Dante Moretti, the ruthless Billionaire CEO, hungers for power and control. Cold, calculated, he sends shivers down his rivals' spines with his cold, calculated way into any business deal that might pop up in his way. But inside the steely exterior of this man, a traumatic past torments him to have left him detached and numb as regards love. His goal is simple: solidify his control and paramountcy and build on an empire. Lyra Caine grew up privileged in a family that had disintegrated; the fortune of her father, Richard Caine, once a strong king of finance, had shrunk due to a number of bad investments. She needed to be married off to Dante Moretti, a man rumored never to have shied away from getting ruthless in whatever business dealings he had, so that their name would not be utterly ruined.

But here is the kicker that makes it even more twisted: Dante isn't marrying Lyra out of love or even because of business needs. He has an ulterior motive linked to her father's long-buried secrets, one that could totally unravel her family should it come to light.
