Marcus Lopez

His mouth claimed hers with a hunger he’d clearly been holding back for years, tongue sliding deep, slow, possessive. Large hands mapped her body like he’d memorized it from stolen glances—cupping her breasts through her thin top, thumbs circling her nipples until they ached and peaked. “You’ve been driving me crazy,” he rasped against her throat, teeth grazing the sensitive skin. “Every time you walked through that door in those little sundresses…” He backed her against the wall, one thigh pressing firmly between hers so she could grind down on the hard ridge of him. Melanie whimpered, already soaked, hips rolling shamelessly. Marcus groaned approval, fingers slipping beneath her skirt to find her drenched panties. “Fuck, sweetheart,” he breathed, stroking her clit through the lace in slow, deliberate circles. “So wet for me already. Been thinking about this?” “Yes—God, yes,” she gasped, nails digging into his shoulders. ********** She knew it was wrong, craving her best friend’s father, but it was a sin she was willing to indulge in... damn the consequences, even if that includes a heartbreak.

Mon fils de trois ans, Ethan, s'est égaré sur le territoire des rôdeurs et a été sauvagement assassiné. Quand la nouvelle m'est parvenue, j'ai perdu connaissance. Je me suis réveillée en sentant la poigne de mon compagnon Alpha, Alexander, serrer la mienne. Sa voix était rauque de chagrin. « Ivy, je te le jure, je vengerai Ethan. Je mettrai ces maudits rôdeurs en pièces de mes propres griffes. » Mais trois jours plus tard, lors des funérailles, j'ai surpris une conversation entre Alexander et son Bêta, Marcus. « Alpha, je ne comprends pas, » disait Marcus, manifestement troublé. « Pourquoi n'as-tu pas laissé le médecin de la meute sauver Ethan ? Il était seulement grièvement blessé. Si nous avions agi à temps… » « C'était Lucas, » a répondu Alexander, la voix chargée de douleur. « Il a accidentellement poussé Ethan vers la frontière des rôdeurs. Lucas n'est qu'un enfant, il ne connaissait pas les limites du territoire. Il ne l'a pas fait exprès. » « Si j'avais laissé le médecin sauver Ethan, le garçon aurait dit la vérité à tout le monde. Sophia irait en prison, et le Conseil condamnerait Lucas à mort. Je ne pouvais pas laisser cela arriver, » a poursuivi Alexander. « Et l'héritier de la meute ? » a demandé Marcus, inquiet. « Ça n'a pas d'importance, » a répondu Alexander, son ton redevenu d'un calme glaçant. « Une fois qu'Ivy se sera apaisée, je ramènerai Lucas. Nous dirons que c'est un orphelin adopté, et le prochain Alpha sera élevé par Ivy elle-même. » Ainsi, la personne responsable de la mort de mon fils était l'enfant illégitime qu'il avait eu avec sa maîtresse. Mon fils aurait pu être sauvé, mais Alexander a sacrifié mon Ethan pour son bâtard. J'ai composé un numéro que je n'avais pas appelé depuis cinq ans. « Papa, c'est moi. Ivy. » « J'ai changé d'avis, » ai-je dit d'une voix froide et posée. « Je rentre pour hériter de la Meute Royale. » « Et la Meute de la Pierre de Lune ? » « Je veux que cette Meute soit rayée de l'existence. »

ONE NIGHT. THREE BILLIONAIRES. A FORTUNE SHE NEVER KNEW EXISTED. Elena Marshall's life implodes in a single evening—cheated on, fired, and left with nothing. When a mysterious stranger rescues her from an attack, their night together awakens something wild and desperate inside her. But one night of passion becomes three dangerous obsessions. Ryder Cross—the reckless rebel who makes her forget everything on the back of his motorcycle. Dante Moretti—the possessive protector who installs her in his safe house and watches her with predatory intensity. Julian Hayes—the charming hotelier who makes her feel precious for the first time in her life. Three powerful men. Three explosive connections. And Elena caught in the middle of their ruthless competition. But as their pursuit intensifies, cracks appear in her reality. Someone is following her. Her past doesn't add up. And a letter arrives addressed to "Elena Ashford"—a name that doesn't belong to her. Until she discovers it does. Twenty years ago, billionaire Marcus Ashford was murdered and his five-year-old daughter vanished. Now Elena's memories are returning in violent fragments: blood on marble floors, a man dying, someone carrying her into the darkness. She's the missing heiress. And the three men desperate to claim her? They all have ulterior motives tied to the night her father was killed.

Who said the weak can’t become strong? Even without powers I can become the most powerful. The Hunter race had existed for several millennia working both in the shadows and in the light protecting humanity from creatures that aren’t from this world, at the age of seven every child in the Hunter race would visit the Hunter god’s temple and receive his blessing in the form of a supernatural ability. Amongst the Hunters were different kinds of people with different types of abilities but one this was common amongst all of them and that was the colour of their eyes, they were all green. Marcus Fault on the other hand was born with icy blue eyes which made majority of the Hunters view him in a different light and from the moment he was born, his life was in danger and each day was like walking on the edge of the abyss, one slip off and he would fall never to return. When he was seventh birthday just like the tradition he was to head to the Hunter god temple to receive his blessings, his talent was first tested and stunning everyone present as he was tested to have legendary talent but unfortunately he wasn’t blessed by the Hunter god and thus the first powerless Hunter was born.

Lyra Cross knew exactly what she was doing when she walked down that aisle. Marrying Killian Maddox wasn’t love, it was strategy. A peace treaty in a leather jacket. The Crimson Fangs’ princess had just one mission: infiltrate the Iron Revenants, spy on the enemy, and burn their empire from the inside out. What she didn’t plan for was Dominic “Grave” Maddox. Her new father-in-law. Forty-two. Billionaire. Biker king. Deadly in every way that mattered. One kiss from him, and the mission started to crumble. Somehow he saw through her lies, stripped her walls bare, and made her forget who she was supposed to be. The way he looked at her wasn’t right… it was sinful. And when he touched her, it felt like a war she didn’t want to win. Back home, her father and her biker-boyfriend Marcus were waiting for the signal. They thought she was still their weapon. But Grave made her something else entirely. His. Now she is trapped between blood and desire, vengeance and addiction because the man she’s falling for isn’t just her enemy… he might be the monster who killed her mother. When that truth comes out, it won’t just break their twisted bond. It will start a war that leaves nothing but ash and sin behind.

The Billionaire Soldier & The Heiress Doctor Dalawang bilyonaryo. Isang maputik na bundok. Isang malaking kasinungalingan. Si Dr. Seraphina Villaraza ay ang nag-iisang prinsesa ng pinakamalaking medical empire sa bansa. Para takasan ang isang arranged marriage, nagtago siya at nag-volunteer sa isang liblib at mapanganib na military outpost sa kabundukan ng Lopez, Quezon. Ang kwento niya sa lahat? Isa siyang dukhang iskolar na baon sa utang. Si Captain Niguel Arandia ay ang kinatatakutang lider ng Special Forces. Ang hindi alam ng kanyang mga tauhan, siya ang "black sheep" at tagapagmana ng bilyun-bilyong halaga ng Arandia Conglomerate. Ang kwento niya sa kampo? Araw-araw siyang nagbubuwis ng buhay sa mga delikadong misyon para may maipakain sa kanyang pamilya. Nang magkrus ang landas nila sa gitna ng digmaan at putik, sumiklab ang isang laro ng asaran at pagpapanggap. Nagtitiyaga sila sa sardinas at instant noodles para mapanatili ang kanilang mga sikreto, habang pilit nilalabanan ang nakakapasong tensyon sa tuwing magsasara ang flap ng kanilang medical tent. Sa gitna ng ulan, panganib, at mga nakaw na sandali, tuluyang nahulog ang loob nila sa isa't isa. Nangako silang aahon sa "kahirapan" nang magkasama. Ngunit pinaghiwalay sila ng isang madugong trahedya. Dalawang taon ang lumipas, muling nagtagpo ang kanilang mga landas—hindi sa isang madungis na kampo, kundi sa isang marangyang VIP Charity Auction sa Maynila. Wala nang mga pekeng utang at butas na uniporme. Dalawang bilyonaryong puno ng pride, galit, at matagal nang naipong pagnanasa ang maghaharap. Handa na ba silang isuko ang kanilang mga ego, o ang paghihiganti ba ang magiging bagong laro nila sa ibabaw ng kama?

I never thought one broken promise could shatter my world twice. His name was Marcus. He swore he’d stay in touch when he left for that “year-long business trip.” Three months later, silence. No calls, no texts, nothing. On my birthday, drunk and done with heartbreak, I went home with a stranger. One reckless night. I slipped out before dawn, leaving a fake name. No more men. No more drama. Then the perfect job fell into my lap: personal assistant to Victoria Langford, a young, filthy-rich heiress. Live-in position, great pay, exactly what my sick little sister and I needed. I moved in, ready for a fresh start. Until I walked into her mansion and saw him. Marcus. In her arms. My fiancé was her boyfriend. Rage burned through me, but I swallowed it. I needed this job. He begged forgiveness, fed me lies about a big contract, how he never stopped loving me. Weak, stupid, lonely. I fell back into him. Secret touches, stolen nights, right under her nose. Then everything exploded. I came home to blood and sirens. Marcus swore he didn’t know what happened. But when the police started digging, he pointed the finger at me. How do I escape this? Who's the father of the child growing inside of me?

After I studied and lived in Descensio for five years, I finally graduated and was ready to return to my home country to take over my dad's company. When I arrived at the Sullivan Group building, I took a picture and posted it on my Instagram story with the caption. 'Since you're the man I love most, I'm here to see you immediately after graduation.' Yet, a woman appeared out of nowhere and slapped me as soon as I arrived at the company's lobby. "It's her! She's the hussy! She had seduced my husband back in high school. Now that my husband has become the director, she shamelessly showed up here to flirt with him. So, I want you girls to beat her up. I'll take the blame if anything happens." While the woman was cooking up a story about me seducing Marcus Lane, a director of Sullivan Group, others around simply looked on coldly and judged me. She slashed my limited-edition bag to pieces and smashed the expensive seal I wanted to give my dad. "You're just a gold digger wearing and buying fake luxury goods. It's just a few hundred dollars. I can still afford to pay you." However, little did she know that everything I had was real. Even if she and her director husband worked for the rest of their lives, they would never be able to afford to pay for the damages.

In a werewolf country cursed to be forever cold, Evadne wished under the full moon for many years to find her mate and escape from her hell of a home where her father, Alpha Marcus of the Moonflame Pack, and Elodie, Evadne’s sister, constantly made sure her day won’t end without her being bullied or beaten by them. When she finally turned eighteen years old, Evadne find her mate, Alpha Gregor of the Fireheart Pack. She promised him that she would be the best mate and Luna for him. However, Elodie reveals he’s her fiance and boyfriend and begs the Alpha to ruthlessly reject her in front of the whole Moonflame Pack at Evadne’s very own birthday party. Evadne’s heart became even more shattered when her father banished her and ordered her to never return to their lives when she humiliated his favorite daughter, Elodie, on that same night. Alone, she was imprisoned in the dungeons of a pack that thought she was a Rogue—when it was attacked by the Alpha King’s forces since the said pack was the only remaining one who refused to bow down to him. As she tried to escape the ensuing chaos, she met him, and never had she thought that the Moon Goddess would let her second-chance mate be Alpha King Kallias himself—the cause of the eternal winter and now the most feared Alpha.
