Nico Sword

"I, Alpha Malik Denver hereby reject you, Eliana Jacobs as my mate and Luna." His voice was like a sword through my chest, slicing my heart into a million tiny pieces. He looked at me with a commanding glare and I knew I didn't have much of an option. "I, Eliana Jacobs, accept your rejection." I whispered as my hands fell to my stomach because unbeknownst to the Alpha, I was carrying his child. - Eliana Jacobs had been through hell her entire life. Ever since her mother died, she'd been abused by her whole pack. No one but her understood the kind of pain she went through until then one night, she decided to flee from her pack. However, destiny led her into the hands of Malik Denver, the most ruthless of all Alphas in Oakland and the leader of her own rival pack. In a twist of fate, he took her in and saved her from becoming rogue. But all in exchange for one thing—a child. Two years had passed and not only had Eliana fallen in love with Denver, she also finds out she’s finally pregnant. But before she could even break the news to him, he shockingly rejects her. “This is over!” He said. Distraught and devastated, Eliana once again decides to run away but this time to somewhere far away. It wasn’t until six years had passed that something unexpected brings her back to Oakland. But now, she isn’t alone, she’s with a six year old boy. How would Denver take the news of her return? Would he finally regret his decision to let her go? And alas, what would happen when he finds out about his secret baby?

My disabled husband, Nico, had lost his will to live. I had to give him a reason to stay—a hope. I had to give him a child. But where was I to find this life for my empty womb? "Lena, how unexpected," my husband’s brother said to me, standing in his penthouse office in the heart of Manhattan. I found myself begging this cruel man—a man who had just left mottled scars on another woman’s skin. I needed him to claim me. I needed him to leave his seed inside me. I needed his child. "If you want to seduce someone," Salvatore said, "you should start by taking off your clothes." I stripped. I held my own breasts and pleasured myself before him, desperate to ignite his desire. But he only shoved his fingers into my mouth, drew his belt, and lashed it across my hips. "Slut," his voice was low and lethal. "You want a child? Then you’d better pray for the moment I finally sink myself into you."

—Señor instructor, ¿qué es eso duro que siento ahí abajo? En la escuela de manejo, dentro del Instituto de Artes de San Pedro, estaba dándole clases a una alumna de primer año bastante atractiva. Nunca me imaginé que esa chica, que a primera vista parecía ingenua, vendría vestida de manera tan provocativa e insistiría en sentarse sobre mis piernas para que le enseñara a manejar “mano a mano”. Durante todo el trayecto, tuve que resistir mis impulsos y concentrarme en enseñarle bien, ignorando a propósito cómo se frotaba contra mí, a veces sin querer y otras no tanto. Pero quién iba a decir que soltaría el embrague demasiado rápido. El motor se apagó y dio una sacudida. Ella cayó de sentón entre mis piernas. El impacto se sintió en su zona más íntima. Y lo único que traía puesto era una faldita corta y ropa interior de tela muy delgada.

Caitlin Paine awakes from a deep coma to discover she has been turned. Now a true, full-bred vampire, she marvels at her new powers, including her ability to fly, and her superhuman strength. She finds that her true love, Caleb, is still by her side, waiting patiently for her to recover. She has everything she could dream of.

Until it all, suddenly, goes terribly wrong.

Caitlin is horrified to discover Caleb with his ex-wife, Sera, and before Caleb has a chance to explain, Caitlin tells him to leave. Heartbroken, confused, Caitlin wants to curl up and die, her only consolation being in her wolf-pup Rose.

Caitlin also finds consolation in her new surroundings. She finds she has been placed on a hidden island in the Hudson River—Pollepel—amidst an elite coven of teenage vampires, boys and girls alike, 24 in all, including her. She learns that this is a place for outcasts, just like her, and as she meets her new best friend, Polly, and begins her training in elite vampire combat, she realizes that she might finally have a place to call home.

But a major vampire war is looming, and her brother Sam is still out there, kidnapped by Samantha. The evil Kyle, too, now wielding the mythical Sword, is still on the warpath, and he will stop at nothing to wipe out New York. Caitlin, despite her new home, and despite her finding a new love interest in the elusive vampire Blake, knows that she can only stay on this island for so long before her destiny calls. After all, she is still the One, and all eyes still look to her to find her father and the other weapon that might save them all.

Torn between her new friends and her lingering feelings for Caleb, she must come to decide where her true loyalties lie, and whether she is willing to risk it all to try to find Caleb and have him in her life once again….

“Alexander, this isn’t right,” Valentina whispered, her voice shaky as his hand traced the line of her jaw. He tilted her chin up, forcing her to meet his gaze. “It doesn’t matter what’s right,” he said, his voice low and commanding. “It matters what’s mine.” Her breath caught as his fingers slid to the back of her neck. “And you think I’m yours?” “I don’t think, Valentina,” he murmured, a dark smile curving his lips. “I know.” --- Valentina never expected her life to take such a dangerous turn. After her husband demands a divorce to marry his mistress, she finds herself entangled with Alexander—a powerful mafia Don whose reputation is as lethal as the man himself. Alexander doesn’t just want Valentina; he needs her. When he discovers she’s the daughter of Nico Vance, the man responsible for the tragedy that destroyed his family, his rage burns hotter. But instead of killing her, Alexander makes a chilling decision: Valentina will become his late wife, down to the last detail. Caught between desire and danger, Valentina must decide if she’ll run from Alexander’s dark world—or step willingly into it. Because once she does, there’s no turning back.

El hotel me llamó para recordarme de forma sutil que anoche olvidé pagar los condones que usé, y que ya habían descontado el importe de mi tarjeta de membresía. Yo estaba algo confundida; ayer trabajé horas extras hasta muy tarde, ni siquiera estuve en un hotel. Pregunté a mi esposo, el único que sabía el número de mi tarjeta, sobre qué demonios había pasado. Él me miró con cara de total desconcierto. —Cariño, esa habitación cuesta más de diez mil la noche, ¿cómo iba yo a gastar eso? Seguro que fue un error del sistema. —Habrá sido alguien que ingresó mal el número de la membresía. Mañana iré a poner una queja. Ya no perdí el tiempo hablando con él. La inversora de ese hotel es Ángela, mi mejor amiga. Le llamé directamente. —Querida, ayúdame a revisar con quién demonios se registró Víctor Soto anoche. ¡Voy a pillarlo en la infidelidad!

– Sra. Sterling, a senhora tem certeza de que está pronta para encerrar este casamento de vinte anos e abrir mão da custódia? – Sim. Dê entrada. Acabou. – Respondi calmamente ao telefone enquanto esfregava uma mancha teimosa de gordura na ilha de granito. Durante vinte anos, eu dediquei tudo de mim a essa família. Administrei a casa, cuidei da educação das crianças e permaneci ao lado do meu marido, apoiando sua ascensão no sindicato sem jamais reclamar. Mas meu marido, Alexander, levou sua jovem irmã adotiva, Chloe, para a entrevista, dizendo: – O sucesso que tenho hoje é todo graças à minha irmã adotiva. Até meus próprios filhos passaram a me menosprezar, chamando-me de dona de casa comum e grosseira. Eles formaram uma aliança com a "tia" sempre presente – a mulher que achava ser a verdadeira senhora da casa. Assinei os papéis do divórcio e fui embora, deixando que eles se tornassem a "família perfeita" que tanto sonhavam. Mas foi então que a família entrou em pânico…

"—No creo que te des cuenta, pero no soy ese tipo de chica. Se creía mi dueño, pero de ninguna manera iba a dejar que me viera quebrarme.—Te compré... ¿recuerdas? —respondió, con una mueca en la comisura de los labios.—No, tú compraste mi virginidad.

Eu me chamo Ângela Guedes. No dia do quinto aniversário do meu filho, nós três fomos assistir a uma chuva de meteoros. No meio do passeio, meu marido atendeu um telefonema e partiu às pressas. No meio da noite, meu filho teve uma crise de asma, e o único remédio estava no carro do meu marido. Eu corria desesperada pelo campo deserto, segurando meu filho nos braços, ligando repetidamente para meu marido, mas recebi apenas uma mensagem fria: [Tenho uma emergência, não perturbe.] No dia seguinte, finalmente consegui falar com ele, mas quem atendeu foi a primeira namorada dele. — O meu cachorrinho morreu repentinamente ontem à noite. O Fidel ficou com medo de que eu ficasse muito triste e passou a noite comigo. Ele acabou de pegar no sono. Se tiver algo a dizer, pode falar para mim. Passei a mão pelo rostinho do meu filho, gelado, e senti o mundo desabar em silêncio. — Diga a ele que quero o divórcio.

Todos sabían que yo, Isabella Marino, era la mayor debilidad de Vince Moretti: lo único que el jefe de la mafia nunca toleraría que fuera tocado. Hace años, cuando fui secuestrada, Vince se desarmó a punta de pistola, arriesgando la muerte para recuperarme, incluso pagando toda su fortuna por mi rescate. Para mantenerme a salvo, caminó al borde del abismo, navegando el peligro a cada paso. Después de que quedé embarazada, me atendía sin descanso, apenas permitiendo que mis pies tocaran el suelo. Había rumores de que mantenía a una amante mimada afuera, una mujer a la que malcriaba sin límites. Nunca les creí. Pero entonces ella se pavoneó frente a mí. Para rogar por mi perdón, Vince se cortó su propio dedo. Al día siguiente, esa mujer me mostró en la cara los resultados de su prueba de embarazo, burlándose y diciendo: —¡Vince quería tanto un bebé conmigo que simplemente no pudo evitarlo! Ya estaba frágil. La conmoción y la rabia me llevaron a un aborto espontáneo.
