Mary Louise And Nora

His lips stretched into a predatory smile that sent chills skittering down my backbone. “Dance on the nails, Sin. Don't make me repeat myself.” He really was the devil. *** Bound to the notorious murderer who’s put a sword to her father’s neck, Princess Annora, fallen from grace, is made to live in Devil’sDen pack as the slave to her captor, Alpha Aegon. Being the fated mate to the Beta of the same vicious pack, Annora plans to use her mate’s feelings as a triumph card, driving her way up to the Alpha’s heart and hoping to put a knife in it. But life happens in reverse— the Alpha becomes the one ‘putting’ things in her. He’s elusive, the most dangerous man she’s ever known. But he’s just as sweet around the edge, alluring in all the forbidden ways. Her hate for him becomes a three-legged chair— wavering. Alpha Aegon hates the Stormbringers for everything they’d cost him, but taking their little white-haired princess was a complete crack in his mode of operation. As harmless as she might seem, everyone is a victim of her wits. Of course, he thinks he’s excluded. Aegon only finds out he’s been mastered in his own game when it's too late, and everything else hangs in the line. His life. Hers. His Virtuous Beta's. What evil befalls this forbidden attraction? How does Annora outsmart this charming man who’s laid waste to everything she’s ever known?

Excerpt - With my eyes closed, I stretched my arms to feel silky sheets all around me. Coming to, I remembered blacking out near the river so why am I feeling silk and pillows?!? I shot up and took in my surroundings. I noticed a dagger on the wall. Is this another one of Enora’s drills? I thought feeling confused. Then the flood of memories from the past night hit me. I killed her. I killed hundreds of wolves in training. The realization began to sink in and though they were vile creatures and Enora treated me less than an animal, I felt guilt. Guilt that I gave into the monster they created in me. The nuns, the Order, Enora. They never wanted me alive because they cared for me. They didn’t train me and push my power for the purpose of helping protect myself or others. No, they wanted to use me. The empty angry void in my soul was because of them. I was never nurtured in all my time at the convent nor Enoras prison. I was completely unloved. Though I needed so badly to burst into tears, I couldn’t bring myself to cry. Lost in my thoughts, the door to my left began to open and before my host could walk completely in, I grabbed a chunk full of hair on the top of their head and put my dagger to their muscular neck.

—Señora Flores, por la revisión específica, su certificado de matrimonio contiene información falsa; el sello y la firma son falsos. Las palabras del agente, de manera ligera, dejaron a Alba Flores aturdida mientras venía a solicitar una reposición de su certificado de matrimonio. —Imposible… Mi esposo, Carlos Sainz, y yo nos casamos legalmente hace cinco años. Por favor, ¿podría verificarlo de nuevo? El agente volvió a ingresar los números de identificación de ambos para realizar la búsqueda y confirmó: —El sistema muestra que Carlos Sainz sí que está casado, pero usted está soltera. La voz de Alba temblaba al preguntar: —¿Y quién es la esposa legal de Carlos Sainz? —Laura Escanes. Alba se agarró con fuerza al respaldo de la silla, intentando mantener la compostura. Le entregaron los documentos de vuelta y las palabras “Certificado de Matrimonio” del encima brillaban, provocándole un dolor en los ojos.

Devan Atmadja, pria yang katanya mencintaiku sepenuh hati. Di mata orang lain, dia adalah suami teladan… pria idaman. Namun, dia telah mengkhianatiku tiga kali. Pertama kali, tiga tahun lalu. Sahabatnya, Dion Prasetya, meninggal demi menyelamatkannya. Devan menyembunyikan semuanya dariku, lalu diam-diam menikah dengan pacar Dion, Keira Maheswari. Hatiku saat itu hancur. Aku sudah bersiap pergi. Namun, malam itu juga, dia mengirim wanita itu ke luar negeri, lalu berlutut di hadapanku, memohon dengan penuh kesedihan. “Viona… Dion mati demi aku. Aku harus menjaga istrinya. Surat nikah itu hanya jaminan untuk Keira. Setelah membalaskan dendam Dion, aku akan menceraikannya. Satu-satunya wanita yang kucintai… hanya kamu!” Dan bodohnya… aku memaafkannya. Setahun kemudian, Devan justru mengumumkan status Keira sebagai nyonya besar keluarga di depan semua media. Dia kembali memberiku penjelasan. “Keira adalah putri tunggal Keluarga mafia Maheswari. Pernikahan ini adalah bentuk aliansi demi membalas dendam untuk Dion! Kami sudah sepakat, setelah semua selesai, aku akan menceraikannya… lalu menikahimu!” Lagi-lagi aku percaya padanya. Kemudian setahun lalu, di sebuah pesta, Devan dijebak dan menghabiskan malam bersama Keira. Dia menutupinya dariku. Sampai dua minggu lalu, ketika aku melihatnya sendiri, dia menemani wanita itu melakukan pemeriksaan kehamilan di rumah sakit. Dengan tatapan yang tak sanggup bertemu denganku, dia berbisik, “Viona, ini cuma kecelakaan. Setelah dia melahirkan, aku akan mengirimnya pergi. Anaknya akan diasuh orang tuaku, dan seumur hidup mereka tak akan pernah muncul di hadapanmu.” Dengan dalih cinta, Devan membuatku terus mengalah. Tapi hari ini… aku sadar. Tak ada lagi masa depan untuk kami. Sudah saatnya… aku pergi.

Di hari dia dijemput kembali oleh keluarganya, dia menggandeng Justin, putra kami dan Vinnie, cinta pertamanya menuju mobil mewah seharga miliaran. Sambil mengerutkan kening, dia berkata padaku, “Sofia, aku hanya persiapkan untuk membawa Vinnie dan Justin. Kamu tunggu di sini dulu. Tunggu posisiku stabil di Keluarga Leis, baru akan datang menjemputmu.” Aku mengangguk dengan tenang dan menuruti pengaturannya tanpa komentar. Karena aku tahu meski memaksakan diri untuk mengikutinya, pasti tidak akan berakhir dengan baik. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku menangis dan meronta-ronta untuk ikut dengannya. Roy yang merasa terpaksa, akhirnya membawaku pulang ke kediaman Keluarga Leis. Namun, kebahagiaan itu hanya bertahan sebentar. Vinnie menjebakku dengan tuduhan bahwa aku membocorkan rahasia Keluarga Leis. Berdasarkan aturan keluarga, aku pun dijatuhi hukuman mati. saat putusan dibacakan, Justin berteriak dengan mata berkaca-kaca, “Aku benci denganmu! Kalau saja kamu nggak memaksa untuk ikut pulang, aku nggak akan punya ibu pengkhianat dan sudah punya ibu yang lebih baik sejak awal!” Seketika, hatiku benar-benar hancur. Kini, setelah terlahir kembali ke masa sebelum suamiku dijemput keluarganya, aku memutuskan untuk melepaskannya. Aku tidak akan lagi menjadi penghalang bagi kebahagiaan sepasang ayah dan anak itu.
