Lucia

Quand Isabela Reyes, jeune avocate ambitieuse de Manille, reçoit une lettre étrange concernant un héritage mystérieux à Palawan, sa vie bascule. Arrivée sur l’île, elle découvre qu’elle est en réalité la fille illégitime d’un magnat disparu, don Fernando Alcaraz, dont la famille règne sur un empire hôtelier corrompu et puissant. Mais la vérité est bien plus tordue. Son père n’est peut-être pas mort… et les membres de la famille Alcaraz sont prêts à tout pour garder leur pouvoir et cacher leurs péchés, quitte à tuer. Au cœur des tensions : Alejandro, l’aîné charismatique mais dangereux, Lucia, la sœur douce qui cache un double visage, et Marco, le cousin rebelle dont Isabela tombe amoureuse… alors qu’il pourrait être son demi-frère.

Setelah mendaki sampai ke puncak gunung, aku mengalami hipotermia. Kedua teman masa kecilku yang pernah bersumpah untuk melindungiku dengan nyawa mereka malah sama sekali tidak melirikku. Yang satu sibuk mengeluarkan semua pakaian untuk membungkus tubuh Lucia, yang satu lagi sibuk menggunakan tubuhnya untuk menghangatkan Lucia. Aku kedinginan sampai penyakit jantungku kambuh. Ketika aku memohon pada mereka untuk menolongku, mereka malah langsung murka. “Chloe Winata! Kenapa kamu masih saja cemburu di saat-saat seperti ini! Kalau dingin, ya lari beberapa putaran sana!” “Setelah pulang nanti, kami akan belikan kamu 100 jaket bulu. Tapi sekarang, kamu nggak boleh rebutan sama Lulu!” Untungnya, ketika tim penyelamat tiba, aku berhasil diselamatkan meskipun nyawaku sudah di ujung tanduk. Selama seminggu aku diopname di rumah sakit, mereka tidak datang menjengukku. Dari postingan sosial media, aku baru tahu bahwa mereka sibuk merayakan pesta ulang tahun Lucia. Persahabatan belasan tahun ini sama sekali tidak bisa dibandingkan dengan senyuman seorang putri sopir. Aku pun menelepon ayahku. “Ayah, aku bersedia nikah sama putra Keluarga Januar.”

She was born of two worlds… and belonged to none. Wolfless and rejected by her own kind, Freya, the hybrid daughter of a witch and a wolf, was sold by her father to the most feared Alpha in the land—Alpha Logan of the Northridge Pack. Her only purpose? To bear his heir and strengthen his bloodline. But love was never part of the deal. Torn between his lingering feelings for his first love, Lucia, and the bond he cannot deny with Freya, Alpha Logan spirals—cold, cruel, and indifferent. And when tragedy strikes and Freya loses the baby, his words cut deeper than any blade: “You’re just a breeder.” Shattered and betrayed, Freya flees to the human world with the help of a mysterious ally. There, she finds peace… and perhaps a new beginning in Daniel, a kind stranger who sees her as more than just a tool. But fate isn’t done with her yet. A prophecy looms. A war brews. And when Logan’s brother returns to claim the throne, only Freya—his true mate and the key to his power—can save his legacy. But will she ever come back to the mate who broke her heart… or choose a new path, and a new love, forever?

I plan a family trip at my mother Lucia Sweeney's request. While avoiding the danger zones, my sister Linda Harper and I are ambushed by rogues. To protect her, I throw myself in the path of their claws and get driven into a silver mine. As I fall, my back is slashed open to the bone, and shards of silver embed deep into my right leg. The searing silver poison spreads quickly, burning through me and my wolf. My wolf is whimpering—she's close to death. However, as the pack's chief healer, Mom gathers all the healers around Linda to give her a full check-up over a few minor scrapes. I sob and beg her to save me first. "Mom, the poison has almost reached my heart. I can't hold on anymore." She turns around impatiently and yells, "Are you seriously still fighting with Linda now? Do you have any idea how close she came to getting clawed in the face by a silver claw? Our pack doesn't have a wolf as heartless as you!" And in that moment, I hear my wolf's final whimper, saying goodbye. I finally fall asleep in the cold wind, never waking up again.

Oh yeah,” she let out a strangled moan when his girth hit her spot and the sensation almost made her combust on the spot. His hand dug into her hair as he drilled into her repeatedly, letting out muffled grunts with each thrust.

However, when Camille meets the drop-dead gorgeous player with a thick British accent when he throws a party at their house, she discovers he is the complete opposite of what she imagined. What happens when Camille finds herself falling hard for the very man she swore to both herself and her best friend, to never feel that way towards. What happens when he makes it extremely difficult for her to resist him and they begin an explicit but forbidden romance without her best friend’s knowledge.

From birth, I was rumored to be a witch who possesses an unknown power. And on getting to the world, I could tell you the exact time my life began to fall apart!. Luck in which I was told to have, ran out on me immediately, and life showed me nothing but how cruel it could be to me. Becoming a slave in your parent's house is not what you could pray for or even wish your enemy. Why it is so is still unraveled. "Come back here, Lucia!"My mother shouted, trudging after me as I ran far into the woods in escape. Fear filled my heart and I pray earnestly it won't kill me before the real death chasing me right now would come. "Run away, run away!"that was what my wolf kept chanting as it stirred unhappily inside of me. And I noted it to myself the dire need to escape from this death. It remains two more steps; just two more for me to cross the border to a new pack when I hit my legs on an unforseen stone that stood as a hinderance on the way.And before I knew it, I was in the air and almost reaching the floor. And when I finally did, it was with a thud!. "Arrgh....."I cussed out in groans and before I could attempt to move from the ground and take to my heels, she appeared- right before me. Then with blood-shot eyes,"Have always knew you aren't meant to be my daughter, Get up now, run into that house and pick out my favourite whip.....Lay on the bed unclad and wait just a second for me, for your usual punishment!"she ordered viciously. And at once; I knew I was a dead meat.
