Marco The Phoenix

For 1,095 days, Maya Vance was a ghost. She cooked three-star meals for a man who didn't know her favorite color and kept his failing shipping empire afloat with anonymous billions. She was the "Safe Choice." The "Placeholder." On their anniversary, Lucian Blackwood brought home his "White Moonlight," Cynthia Thorne. With a cold flick of a pen, he handed Maya a divorce decree. "She’s back. I don't need a substitute maid anymore. Get out." Maya didn't cry. She smiled—a smile that should have terrified him. Within twenty-four hours, the Blackwood name is erased from the stock exchange. The mysterious "Phoenix," the world’s youngest tech trillionaire, emerges from the of shadows to dismantle Lucian’s life piece by piece. When Lucian finally tracks down the woman ruining him, he doesn't find his "homely" ex-wife. He finds an Empress on a throne of his broken dreams. Now, he’s on his knees in the rain, begging for a second chance. But Maya Vance doesn't give second chances. She only gives invoices.

The greatest of thieves of all times, the Phoenix, was impossible to track, let alone be seen by anyone but this time she stole something that was going to cost her life. She stole the Kings heart. And there is only one punishment for betraying the Apha King, Death. She wasn't supposed to be at the royal ball. She wasn't supposed to meet the Werewolf King. And she wasn't supposed to spend a night with him, pretending to be someone who she was not. His mate, Emerald. .But she did, and now she had to face the consequences. In a Kingdom where playing with knives was forbidden, she dared to play with the Kings heart. And now he is not going to stop... till he has destroyed her and made her pay for her betrayal. “ I will avenge each and every second of your life, you pretended to be my mate...you filthy rogue.Every second of it, till you will beg me for your death."-Zachary... "I will survive each and every act of torture you bestow upon me my Alpha King."" Each and every one of it, till your heart gets tired of hating me to finally forgive me."-Eirene

La famille mafieuse Rossi suivait une règle ancestrale. Avant son mariage, l’héritier avait droit, une fois par an, à un tirage au sort. S’il tombait sur un lot favorable, il pouvait choisir lui-même son épouse et échapper à un mariage arrangé. Pendant cinq années de suite, Dante Rossi a tiré un lot défavorable, et moi, qui étais avec lui depuis sept ans, je n’ai jamais réussi à l’épouser. Cette année, c’était la sixième fois. J’ai surpris une conversation entre lui et Marco Valentino, le sous-chef. « Monsieur Rossi, vous avez encore tiré un lot favorable. » La voix de Dante portait une froideur que je ne lui avais jamais entendue. « Comme d’habitude, changez-le en lot défavorable. » Marco a hésité, puis a essayé de le raisonner. « Monsieur Rossi, cela fait déjà cinq ans que vous le changez. Vous n’avez pas peur que Celia vous quitte ? Celia est la plus belle femme de Nopales. La moitié des hommes de la ville lui courent après. » Dante a répondu avec une certitude absolue : « Elle ne le fera pas. Celia m’aime trop. Elle n’épousera personne d’autre. » « Il y a des années, le père de Livia est mort en me sauvant la vie. Son dernier souhait était que je reste à ses côtés pendant cinq ans. Quand cette année sera terminée, j’offrirai à Celia un mariage grandiose en compensation. » Le dernier espoir qui me restait s’est éteint en entendant ces mots. Dante ne savait sans doute pas que la famille Rossi avait encore une autre règle ancestrale. Si l’héritier échouait à tirer un lot favorable six fois de suite, il perdait le droit de choisir lui-même sa femme. Et moi, j’allais bientôt épouser quelqu’un d’autre.

A família mafiosa Rossi seguia uma regra ancestral. Antes de se casar, o herdeiro recebia, todos os anos, uma única chance de tirar a sorte. Se tirasse uma sorte favorável, poderia escolher a própria esposa e escapar de um casamento arranjado. Dante Rossi tirou uma sorte desfavorável por cinco anos consecutivos, e eu, que namorava com ele fazia sete anos, nunca consegui me casar. Aquele já era o sexto ano. Por acaso, ouvi a conversa dele com Marco Valentino, o Subchefe. — Sr. Rossi, o senhor tirou uma sorte favorável de novo. — A voz de Dante carregava uma frieza que eu nunca tinha escutado antes. — Como sempre, troque por uma sorte desfavorável. Marco hesitou por um instante, mas ainda tentou convencê-lo: — Sr. Rossi, o senhor faz essa troca há cinco anos seguidos. Não tem medo de que Celia vá embora? Celia é a mulher mais bonita de Nopales. Metade dos homens da cidade corre atrás dela. Dante respondeu com absoluta convicção: — Ela não vai. Celia me ama demais. Nunca vai se casar com outro homem. Depois, continuou, no mesmo tom calmo: — Anos atrás, o pai de Livia morreu para me salvar. Antes de fechar os olhos, ele me pediu que eu ficasse ao lado dela por cinco anos. Quando este ano terminar, vou compensar Celia com um casamento grandioso. Ao ouvir aquelas palavras, o último fio de esperança dentro de mim se partiu. Dante provavelmente não sabia que a família Rossi ainda guardava uma última regra ancestral. Se o herdeiro não tirasse uma sorte favorável por seis vezes, perderia o direito de decidir o próprio casamento. E, em breve, eu me casaria com outro homem.
