Monkey D Luffy Mom

Dans un monde où le surnaturel se mêle au quotidien, Alina, une sorcière fragile mais courageuse de 400 ans, se retrouve au cœur d'une prophétie ancienne reliant son destin à celui d'Elias, un prince dragon millénaire orgueilleux et implacable. Alors qu'elle lutte pour s'affirmer dans un monde qui la considère comme faible, Alina découvre un grimoire mystérieux prophétisant son union avec Elias, mettant en lumière des secrets enfouis et des désirs inavoués. Lorsque leurs chemins se croisent sous la pleine lune, une connexion inexplicable se forme entre eux, provoquant en Elias des sentiments qu'il n'avait jamais envisagés. Dans un contexte de menaces croissantes, notamment des chasseurs de créatures surnaturelles dirigés par un homme assoiffé de vengeance, Alina et Elias doivent faire face à leurs peurs et à leurs préjugés. Tandis qu’Elias lutte contre son orgueil, son cœur commence à se laisser emporter par l’amour grandissant pour Alina, la battante qui refuse de se laisser abattre. À travers des épreuves et des sacrifices, ils sont poussés à explorer les profondeurs de leurs pouvoirs. Leur quête de paix et d'acceptation mettra à l'épreuve leurs cœurs, et ensemble, ils découvriront que les véritables échos des ombres ne sont pas ceux qui les hantent, mais ceux qu'ils choisissent d'affronter ensemble. Dans un monde de ténèbres, Alina et Elias apprendront que l'amour peut triompher des plus grandes adversités, redéfinissant ainsi ce que signifie aimer et se battre pour ce qui en vaut la peine.

I'd been home for half a month, but I still couldn't shake the feeling that Mom wasn't quite herself anymore. She looked and sounded like she always had, but something felt different. Then, one day, I got a message from her that sent a chill down my spine. "Lily, hide! There's a ghost in the house!" At first, I thought she was pulling a prank on me—or maybe her account got hacked. Then, there was a knock on my bedroom door. Mom, who had just finished cooking, called out to tell me the meal was ready. I was still hesitating when another message popped up. It was a voice message. "Trust me, Lily. I'm your real mom! The one out there is a ghost! Run!" It sounded just like Mom's voice from outside. My mind was racing in panic. Not hearing me respond, Mom giggled from the other side of the door and said, "I'm coming in."

A Werewolf's Vow: Mated by the Letter To my dearest stranger, My day has been so tough to the point that I almost wanted to end my life. Wanted to slash my throat with a knife, drink and eat something with poison, or even planned to drown myself. Why was the world so mean to me? Why is my life this miserable? And why can they just leave me alone? I can't take it anymore. I only wanted to live a normal life, away from humiliation, deprivation, and bad luck. So, I'm writing this letter, thinking you might hear me out. Funny, but this is the only way I could express my thoughts. And for the record, this has been my eighth and final letter to send off. And whoever you are, it was nice meeting you. Hopefully, when you get the chance to read this letter, you'd send me something in response. For us to know each other better. I'll be waiting. Love, Joshua Craig.

“He gave my heart to my mother. So I gave my hand to his father.” When Elara discovers that her fiancé — the man she thought she’d spend forever with — has been sleeping with her own mother just days before their wedding, something inside her shatters. The betrayal isn’t just personal; it’s humiliating, raw, and unforgettable. Instead of collapsing, Elara makes a silent vow: they’ll all pay. And her revenge begins not with a knife, but with a smile. Her target? His father — a cold, enigmatic billionaire who’s always kept his distance from the family drama. She slips into his world like smoke, slowly making herself indispensable… and irresistible. But as lines blur between vengeance and desire, Elara faces a dangerous truth: some hearts are easier to burn than others. And love, even when born of revenge, can destroy everything.

La vie paisible et tranquille d'Emily est réduite en miettes en une seule journée par nul autre que le diable déguisé. Il s’est imposé dans sa vie dans un fracas assourdissant, bouleversant tout son monde, l’exposant à une vie qu’on lui avait toujours appris à fuir. Sa vie tranquille est brisée quand il, un chef de mafia impitoyable et rusé, éclate dans son univers, l’ouvrant à un monde de danger et de tromperies. Avec sa présence menaçante et son charisme, il attire Emily dans un royaume sombre de crimes et de passions, la forçant à affronter des secrets et des désirs qu’elle avait longtemps réprimés. À mesure que leurs mondes se percutent, Emily doit naviguer dans le paysage traître de son domaine, où la loyauté est un luxe et la survie l’objectif ultime. EXTRAIT — "Tu n’écoutes pas, hein, ma jolie ?" Il rit d’un rire sombre. Emily le repoussa de toutes ses forces et saisit une arme qui traînait par terre, elle appartenait à l’un des hommes qu’Angelo avait tués, et s’assurant qu’il y avait une grande distance entre eux, elle visa l'arme sur lui. Ses mains tremblaient, mais elle ne se laisserait pas faire. — "Tu crois vraiment que ça va me faire peur, ma petite ?" Angelo rit, son rire sinistre résonnant dans ses oreilles tandis qu’il parlait d’une manière sadique. — "T’es un meurtrier, d’abord tu as tué ma tante, maintenant tu as tué des innocents, combien d'autres vas-tu tuer ?" Emily hurla, sa main tremblant tandis que la peur la saisissait. — "Tu veux vraiment savoir ?" Angelo demanda, s’avançant encore plus près.

À la veille de mon mariage, la nouvelle selon laquelle la maîtresse de mon fiancé avait accouché s'est répandue partout. Alex Thomas n'a pas attendu que je l'interroge, il a parlé d'un ton désinvolte. « Ce n'est qu'un accident, occupe-toi d'abord de l'organisation de nos fiançailles. » « Et puis, ton père est atteint d'un cancer de l'estomac à un stade avancé, rompre l'alliance maintenant ne servirait ni ta famille ni la mienne. » Le soir même, il a brillé par son absence à la réception, mais il a publié sur Instagram une photo d'un nouveau-né emmailloté. Quand je l'ai appelé en visioconférence, il donnait le biberon à l'enfant. « Je m'occupe du bébé ces jours-ci, je n'ai pas le temps de t'accompagner. Tu le sais, je suis fils unique, l'enfant compte davantage. » En essuyant le lait au coin de la bouche du nourrisson, il a ajouté : « Mais rassure-toi, dès qu'il aura un mois, je l'enverrai à Solméra. » « Aux fêtes, il suffira que tu fasses semblant d'être sa mère devant les autres, et la place de jeune madame Thomas restera toujours la tienne. » J'ai fixé la bague assortie à la mienne qui brillait à son annulaire, puis j'ai éclaté de rire. « Alex, annulons nos fiançailles. » Il a soufflé avec mépris : « Pour si peu tu fais un caprice, ne sois pas si enfantine. » J'ai coupé net la communication, puis j'ai composé le numéro privé de son père. « J'ai entendu dire que vous cherchiez une nouvelle épouse, pourquoi ne pas songer à moi ? » En caressant mon ventre, j'ai souri doucement : « Après tout, la vie m'accorde une nature féconde, je pourrai vous donner autant de fils que vous voudrez. » La maison des Thomas, avec Alex comme unique héritier, paraissait bien vide. Moi, j'allais lui offrir quelques frères pour égayer le tout.

“Let's divorce now and get this over with. We've both gotten what we wanted for this arrangement.” A tear fell out of Zerah’s eye, unnoticed. “Is that so?” Two years before, Zerah saved his life and they'd fallen in love with a promise to return as he'd left. Now, a year after their reunion, he was no longer the man she knew. Compelled to sign a contract marriage for the sake of her mother's health, she thought she could regain his love but only received humiliation and heartbreak in return. As he put the divorce papers in front of her, she'd resigned herself to let go of her love, leaving with the secret growing inside her. Yet fate still brings them together? As the bond of her sons forces her back into his life, now engaged to the childhood friend he'd never failed to humiliate her for, secrets are revealed and she is forced to bear it. What will happen when he recovers his memories and realizes that he'd chosen the wrong woman? Will he be able to win her heart? Will she accept him or choose a different path? Or will the forces against her take her before she can choose?

I was different from the others in my pack. My wolf could hear the truths hidden deep in someone’s heart. Whenever someone lied, she would immediately whisper their real thoughts to me. During the two years I was with Jace, my wolf stayed silent. I knew his love for me was real. But on the day before our marking ceremony, my wolf finally spoke. "I need to stall Leah tomorrow. I have to mark Elena." "Elena's pregnant. She has to be marked to be accepted by the pack. Leah loves me too much to blame me." My hand tightened around the pregnancy test tucked deep in my bag. A cold dread swept over me. Jace, I was pregnant too. But I wouldn't tell you. I played along with his plan, pretending I didn't know the truth. I let him make Elena his mate, father to her pup. After their ceremony, all he'd find was the discarded pregnancy test I left behind. His heir and I would be gone from his world—forever.

When I took a bullet for Theo Moretti, the bullet grazed my temple, compressing the optic nerve and causing blindness in both my eyes. He kneeled by my hospital bed, pressed the family crest to his chest, and swore: “Sophie, I will be your eyes for life. If I break this oath, may I die a horrendous death.” I believed him. However, the day my sight returned, I saw Theo through the bedroom door, naked on our marital bed with the maid, Isabella. He gripped her waist and thrust violently, his voice hoarse in a way I had never heard, growling, “Bella… you really are the most seductive woman in all of Sicily…” “Theo, who else besides me could satisfy you like this in bed? Divorce that blind woman already!” Isabella nibbled his earlobe. “After all, I’m the one who truly understands you.” “Wait a little longer,” Theo panted. “I need time… Don Lucas just handed me control of the docks. If I divorce now, I’ll be left with nothing.” Rare snowflakes rained down outside. I walked barefoot out of the estate in a thin nightgown and sent an encrypted message to my father. “Father, send someone to pick me up in three days. I’m coming home.” Don Lucas, my father, never expected that the boss he had personally promoted would dare betray his daughter. He replied with a single sentence: “For daring to betray you, Theo’s dead.” What I did not know was that this message would ignite a storm that would sweep across all of Sicily. In three days, Theo Moretti, the man I had risked my life for and I had personally helped rise to power, would lose everything he held dear, including me.
