“You like it when you’re being watched, don’t you?” Alex grunted, making Ivy have goosebumps. “Should we give them a show?” Alex breathed against her neck, causing her nipples to ache and harden against her bra. She made a mental note of the guards scattered around the property, who were trying hard not to look. Ivy gulped as she felt Alex’s mouth on her neck, one of her weak spots. He sucked on it as she hissed, placing her hands on his shoulders for support. Alex knew what he was doing to her; he could feel himself getting hard and could sense her arousal. He stopped, raised himself out of the pool, and stretched his hands for her to grab, which she did. He pulled her out of the pool with one hand. Without a pause, he carried her over his shoulder, her bare bottom exposed to the air. “Alex, let me go!” Ivy struggled against his body, receiving a spank from Alex that quieted her down. --------- Ivy Queen meets Alexander Donatello, CEO/ mafia lord of the American syndicate at a party. She is intrigued by his presence as he is drawn to her. Alex schemes up ways to get Ivy to marry him as she is in debt after the loss of her family in a ghastly car accident. Alex's childhood friend and business associate, Ryan Smith was smitten by Ivy when he first set his eyes on her. He followed her everywhere, obsessed with the way she moved, talked, but had no guts to ask her out. Ivy's best friend, Tim Rumble, was also in love with her but he was satisfied with being her friend as long he got to be with her.

Eric Clapton never expected his ex-wife would move on overnight, and be living her best life. His friends have always mocked him for marrying such an ugly woman. When his mistress showed up, he couldn't exercise the smallest patience to stay married to Liana. "My mind is made up, Liana. Let's get a divorce. $90 million and the penthouse in Rochester will be compensation for your mental damage. Is that enough?" Eric put down the envelope and pen on the pillow beside her. Liana sat up, eyes glued to the man she has dedicated three years of her life to. "Is that all you have to say and offer?" She asked, her eyes holding a trace of detachment. Eric was stuck in thoughts. This was unlike the fragile and indecisive woman he married. Liana smiled as she gazed at his unreadable expression. "I can see you're really prepared for this, you know. This is obviously the first time in three years since you returned home before 11:00 pm, Eric." She added, her lips curling up into an enigmatic smile as she decisively scribbled her signature on the papers. The next morning at the courthouse, she held the divorce papers, her fragile heart tearing apart as she watched her ex husband smiling when he walked away, his hands carefully wrapped around another woman's waist while they strode to his car. Seeing him replace her so quickly was really heart wrenching, but right there, she saw another man who just got dumbed by his fiancee at the crucial hour, and without hesitation, she walked up to him and proposed to replace his fiancee. Now, what will Eric do when at the moment of his regret, he realised that she didn't only move on, but she's now his boss's wife?

Mon mari Alpha, Ryder, avait toujours détesté entendre un chiot pleurer. Mais récemment, il a commencé à s'occuper du chiot nouveau-né de ma sœur adoptive, restant à ses côtés dans la nurserie chaque nuit jusqu'à l'aube. Chaque fois que Ryder quittait notre chambre pour aller dans celle du bébé, une douleur lancinante et inexplicable me transperçait la poitrine. Cette agonie durait toute la nuit, jusqu'à son retour à l'aube. J'avais finalement atteint mon point de rupture. Lors du festival de la pleine lune, j'avais annoncé devant toute la meute que je rejetais notre lien d'âme sœur. Le lien mental de la meute s'était saturé de murmures, indiquant que la bataille avait endommagé mon esprit. Une lueur dorée s'était allumée dans les yeux de Ryder tandis qu'il me fixait avec incrédulité. « Parce que j'étais trop occupé pour prendre de tes nouvelles quand tu étais blessée, tu rejettes notre lien à cause d'un chiot de six mois ? » Je n'avais pas croisé son regard. Mon œil s'était plutôt attardé sur la légère trace de rouge à lèvres estompée à l'intérieur de son col. Ma voix tremblait, mais elle ne vacillait pas. « Puisque tu aimes tant son chiot, une fois notre lien rompu, tu pourras ouvertement être le père. »

My sister, Lily, was torn to pieces by Rogues. I sobbed, begging my Fated Mate, Alpha Ethan, to find her killers. He never did. A year later, on the anniversary of her death. I went to find Ethan, ready to tell him I was pregnant. Instead, I found him holding another omega, Bella, in his arms. “Don’t worry,” he soothed her. “No one will find out you dropped the pack's mental shield and got Lily killed. Once Harper gives up her title as Luna at the ceremony, you will be my one and only.” My heart shattered. So that was it. He never marked me, never rejected me… he wanted me to step down on my own. He was protecting my sister’s murderer. He wanted to make her Luna. I stormed in, screaming, but Bella suddenly coughed up blood and collapsed. Wolfsbane poisoning, she claimed. "She was poisoned saving me! Give me your heart's blood! It's the only thing that can save her!" Ethan looked at me with more disgust than if I were trash. “I’m pregnant! It’ll kill the baby!” I pleaded. But his Alpha Command crashed down. My body was no longer my own. I could only watch as the thick needle pierced my chest, right over my heart. Golden blood flowed out. A sharp, tearing pain ripped through my stomach… He had killed my baby. My wolf shattered inside me. I closed my eyes, reaching for a forbidden connection in the werewolf world. "Lycan King Rogan. Tomorrow, I need you to help me destroy everything in the Blackwood Pack. Including Alpha Ethan."

“And what you tried today,” I winced in pain as he held my nape from behind before turning me around. I peered up at him in fear while he stared down at me with his intimidating eyes. His eyes were thundering. Leaning down further, he made my pulse rise. Being so close to him— a man, no less, I could see the clear spec of blackness inside his dark eyes. They were so raw and so dark and so piercing. “I would suggest you not try it again,” he added, his bottomless brooding eyes burned into mine, “because no matter how hard you are going to try, you are never going to get out of here without my permission. Away from my sight,” he vowed in a menacing tone that had no expression at all. “Don't get your hopes high.” Tears split down my eyes while he studied my face. “You like escaping. Don't you?” He explained to me in a condescending tone. “Let's see how you are going to try now with my eyes on you— all the time." “You can try all you want, but you can never break my spirits!” I looked at him, directly in his eyes without blinking. His eyes were still focussed on my face as he slowly stepped around me. “Do you mean it?” His voice was strangely soft, “Maybe I cannot. But.. ” Adding to his intimidating aura. Shaur. “No.. ” I whispered. “I can break him.” His gaze met mine in an instant. “You seem to have forgotten your own mental capacity of understanding certain situations. Let me refresh it for you.” His eyes seemed to burn holes at me. “I'd rather not get blood on your dress.” WARNING: This book contains strong language, dubious situations, deception issues, manipulations, abduction and dark romance.

Yo era una princesa del mar. En cuanto vi a Dominic, el Alfa de los lobos, caí rendida ante él. Quería ser su pareja, ser parte de su mundo. Por eso le entregué todo lo que yo era a la Diosa de la Luna. Pero él me encerró en la sala de aislamiento de la manada por tres días. Según él, para que “pensara en lo que había hecho”. Todo porque no corrí a ayudar a su amiga de la infancia, Harper. Se dejó caer en el banquete de la manada y todos los presentes se carcajearon. Harper lloró y se refugió en los brazos de Dominic. —Marina ha de tener celos de lo bien que me tratas. ¡Seguro usó su magia de forastera para hacerme caer frente a todos! Mientras me encerraba, la cara de Dominic reflejaba una gran decepción. —Te he consentido mucho, Marina. Y ahora usas mi amor como un arma contra mi manada. Te quedarás aquí tres días. Cuando hayas aprendido la lección, me buscas por el enlace mental y te disculparás. Entonces te dejaré salir. La sala de aislamiento estaba diseñada para limpiar espíritus. Pero él no sabía la verdad. Quemar salvia solo limpia el espíritu de un hombre lobo. Pero para una sirena, es veneno. El humo me quemó los pulmones. El veneno inundó mis venas. Me asfixié en esa habitación sellada. Y nadie se dio cuenta jamás.
