Marcus Lopez Arguello

Giorgo era o Don da família Romero Ele foi emboscado por um lunático suicida que tinha bombas presas ao próprio corpo. Naquele momento, meu marido, Fábio Lopez, já havia levado seus homens para um desfile de moda ao lado de seu primeiro amor, Reina Digiorno, com a intenção de protegê-la durante o evento. Em vez de apertar o botão de sinal no anel que eu usava, eu me lancei contra Giorgo, mesmo estando com a gravidez bastante avançada. Foi assim que consegui usar meu próprio corpo para protegê-lo da explosão. Na minha vida anterior, eu havia apertado o botão. Fábio abandonou Reina às pressas e foi correndo ao local do atentado para salvar a vida de Giorgo. Graças a essa contribuição, ele foi promovido ao cargo de sottocapo. Mas Reina enlouqueceu de raiva por Fábio tê-la deixado antes do fim do evento. Movida apenas pelo ressentimento, ela atravessou a rodovia de forma imprudente e acabou sendo atropelada, morrendo no local. Embora Fábio não tivesse dito uma única palavra, ele escolheu me enviar para uma casa de leilões subterrânea exatamente no dia em que eu entrei em trabalho de parto. — O Don tinha vários soldados para protegê-lo! Por que você me obrigou a voltar naquele momento? — Ele me encarou com frieza, e sua voz estava carregada de desprezo. — Não foi só porque você queria a glória de ser a esposa do sottocapo? Se não fosse por você, Reina não teria morrido! — Ele continuou, sem qualquer piedade, os olhos cheios de ódio. — Você vai sofrer mil vezes mais do que ela sofreu! Eu só pude assistir enquanto os convidados faziam lances, um por um, pelos meus órgãos. Nem mesmo o cordão umbilical do meu recém-nascido foi poupado do leilão. No fim, eu morri de uma infecção causada durante a remoção dos meus órgãos. Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu já havia retornado ao dia em que Giorgo foi emboscado.

When event planner Sophia Martinez crashes billionaire Ethan Cross's exclusive charity gala, she's just trying to steal enough food to feed her dying mother. She never expects to catch the attention of New York's most ruthless CEO or to accept his shocking proposal. Ethan offers Sophia five million dollars for six months of her life: pose as his devoted fiancée to make his ex jealous and secure the biggest business deal of his career. The rules are simple no real feelings, no physical contact, just perfect public performances as the ideal couple. But Sophia harbors a devastating secret. She's the daughter of the man who destroyed Ethan's family empire five years ago, and she's been living with the guilt ever since. As she falls deeper into the charade, the lines between pretense and reality blur. Every stolen glance, every fake smile, every staged kiss pulls her further from her mission and closer to the man she's supposed to hate. Ethan finds himself breaking his own rules. The woman he hired to heal his wounded pride is awakening feelings he thought were dead. But when business rival Marcus Reid begins circling like a vulture, threatening to expose their arrangement, Ethan realizes the game has become far more dangerous than either of them anticipated. As corporate espionage collides with family secrets, Sophia must choose between protecting the man she loves and saving herself from a past that refuses to stay buried. When Ethan discovers her true identity, their contract becomes worthless but their hearts have already signed a deal that could destroy them both. In a world where billion-dollar empires rise and fall on trust, can love survive the ultimate betrayal? Or will the truth shatter more than just their fake engagement?

I'm the only daughter of Marcus Nightbloom, the former Alpha King. I'm also the fated mate of Lucas Ashbourne, the new Alpha King. On the night before the coronation ceremony, I happily whip out the spirit stones that I've been saving up for the past three years, hoping to craft Lucas a new scepter. But I find an exile proposal with my name on it as well as a stack of close-up photos of the Rogues violating me in a hidden room of Lucas' study. His handwriting can be seen on the back of one of the photos. "She's defective, so she's not suitable to become the Luna Queen." I grab the photos and rush off to confront Lucas. But he merely toys with the crown meant for the Luna Queen. "Although you're my fated mate, you're still tainted, Elena. An Alpha King's mate must be perfect and flawless. You, on the other hand, reek of Rogues. Whenever I pick up your scent, I feel so nauseous that I want to puke. "If werewolves are scarred, those scars are their medals. But if she-wolves are tainted by other wolves, they are impure and deserve to be discarded." I find Lucas' logic very ridiculous. "I did that just so I could save your life five years ago!" Lucas merely chuckles icily in return. "I never asked for your help. Anyway, I will never mark a defective she-wolf who's tainted by other wolves." At the coronation ceremony the next day, Lucas showcases the evidence of me getting violated by the Rogues in front of the entire Kingdom. I never shed a tear at that moment. After all, Lucas has no idea that the she-wolf, whom he has just discarded like trash, has the bloodline that's capable of conquering all wolves flowing through her veins.

Depuis six ans, je vivais secrètement amoureuse de Côme, mon demi-frère et Alpha de notre meute. Par une nuit de pleine lune, je me suis faufilée dans le siège de sa compagnie pour lui faire une surprise. Mais alors que j'approchais de son bureau, je les ai entendus, derrière la porte entrouverte : lui et Marcus, le Bêta de la tribu. « Tu traînes toujours avec cette demi-sœur, Aria ? Quand comptes-tu rompre ? Ne me dis pas que tu as des vrais sentiments pour elle. » Le rire froid de Côme m'a transpercé l'âme : « Des sentiments ? Elle n'est qu'une Bêta qui s'est jetée à moi. Une proie facile, tout simplement. Pourquoi me priver ? Ma Luna ne sera qu'Hélène. » « Son père a trahi la meute et a été banni. Sa mère a séduit le mien, causant la mort de ma propre mère. Ces six années… n'étaient qu'une punition. Elle mérite pleinement ce qui lui arrive. » Ainsi, le lien que je chérissais tant… n'avait toujours été qu'une vengeance minutieusement ourdie. Ces paroles douces, ces caresses tendres… tout n'était que MENSONGES imprégnés de venin. Si c'était le cas, je partirais. J'espérais seulement qu'il ne le regretterait pas !

When seventeen-year-old Willow Hayes moves into the remote Thorne mansion with her mother's new husband, she expects awkwardness - not a supernatural war for survival. Her stepbrother, Kael Thorne, is the arrogant king of Crestwood High and heir to a secret werewolf Pack. But when their eyes meet, an ancient Mate Bond snaps into place, marking Willow as the one person who can prevent Kael from succumbing to the deadly Feral Shift - a state of uncontrolled rage that means death. The problem? Kael's father, Alpha Marcus Thorne, sees Willow's humanity as a fatal weakness that endangers the entire Pack. His rival, the brutal Darek Ironfang, sees her as the perfect weapon to destroy Kael's claim to leadership. And Sierra, Kael's scorned ex-girlfriend, will stop at nothing to expose their forbidden connection. Caught between werewolf politics and deadly Pack law, Willow must transform from invisible high school student to strategic mastermind. As Kael faces three brutal Trials to claim the Alpha title - the Blood Hunt, the Leadership Rite, and the Ritual of Dominance - Willow becomes his secret weapon: the Obsidian Anchor, using their psychic bond to control his Feral instincts from afar. But the bond demands a terrible price. Each time Willow stabilizes Kael's wolf, she risks fragmenting her own mind. When betrayal strikes from within and enemies attack from without, Willow must make an impossible choice: save herself, or save the wolf who has become her entire world. In a final, devastating confrontation, Kael faces the Feral Shift in front of the entire Pack. Only Willow's unprecedented psychic command - and her willingness to sacrifice everything - can pull him back from the brink. Together, they forge a revolutionary new law: the Alpha's power is incomplete without the Mate's wisdom.

Shantali Jackson awakens from cryostasis to discover she's been asleep for over 600 years. A working-class woman from the pre-collapse era, she finds herself in a sterile medical facility, where staff address her as royalty and claim she's the beloved of Prince Costa—a man she barely remembers meeting at Le Glow Club one fateful night. As fragmented memories surface, Shantali learns the devastating truth: she and Costa were never willing participants in the preservation program. After publicly defying their arranged marriages to choose each other, they were declared enemies of the state and forcibly preserved by the Emergency Preservation Committee. They've been awakened seventeen times for six centuries, only to have their memories wiped when they refused to comply with the Council's genetic breeding program. This time is different—the memory suppression technology is failing, and ghostly echowisps (manifestations of psychic trauma) guide them through their escape. With the help of Marcus, a resistance member, they flee to the underground networks where Shantali discovers shocking truths: her half-brother Elliot became a resistance leader, Costa's parents have been working to undermine the Council for centuries, and the outside world has been habitable for generations. The couple escapes to Haven's Gate, one of seven thriving Eastern Sanctuaries where humanity has rebuilt naturally. But freedom is short-lived when they learn Dr. Thorne and other preservation specialists are using extracted consciousness data to create a new form of control—artificial minds programmed for obedience. Refusing to remain passive victims, Shantali and Costa make a bold choice: they'll pose as desperate refugees seeking re-preservation, walking willingly into Dr. Thorne's trap to stop his plans once and for all. Their love story becomes humanity's last hope against a system that would sacrifice free will for genetic perfection. A tale of choice, resistance, and the power of love.

J'aimais Lucian depuis des années. J'avais tout abandonné pour le sauver, mais tout ce que j'avais reçu en retour, c'était du dégoût dans ses yeux. Dans ma vie précédente, on m'avait forcée à devenir sa compagne, mais à la fin, j'étais morte sous les griffes des loups sauvages qu'il avait envoyés à mes trousses. Il avait même brisé le cou de mon frère Marcus de ses propres dents. La nuit de ma renaissance, j'ai fait un choix différent. J'ai laissé ma rivale Ayara obtenir ce qu'elle désirait. J'ai épousé à sa place le prince cruel Draven, même si les rumeurs disaient qu'il « tuerait sa fiancée ». Ayara, elle a pu s'enfuir pour sauver Lucian. Mais quand la portière de la voiture nuptiale s'est ouverte, la personne qui en est sortie était le garçon doux que j'avais rencontré à l'âge de cinq ans. « Regarde-moi bien, ma chérie. Suis-je vraiment aussi terrifiant que le disent les rumeurs ? » Ses yeux ambrés étaient pleins de chaleur et de tendresse. Il s'est avéré qu'il avait organisé douze fausses cérémonies de mariage en attendant simplement que je grandisse. Quand Lucian s'est mis à genoux pour me supplier de revenir, il était déjà trop tard, j'étais désormais la Luna de Draven.
