J'étais la compagne secrète de l'Alpha Kade pendant quatre ans. La nuit où il m'a marquée, dans l'ardeur de la passion, il a plongé son regard dans le mien pendant un long, très long moment. « Tu sais, Anya, » avait-il murmuré, la voix rauque, « ce que j'aime le plus chez toi, ce sont tes magnifiques yeux. » Pour protéger sa prétention au titre d'Alpha, j'avais accepté de rester à ses côtés, en me faisant passer pour une guerrière Bêta. Du moins, jusqu'au jour où je l'ai vu passer son bras autour de la taille de ma demi-sœur, rayonnant de fierté devant tout le monde. Ce n'est que lorsque les murmures ont commencé à enfler, lorsque chacun chuchotait que la belle louve que l'Alpha avait ramenée avait mes yeux, que la vérité m'a frappée de plein fouet. Ce n'était jamais moi qu'il aimait. J'ai affronté Kade, exigeant une explication. Son visage n'exprimait que le mépris. « Une explication ? » « Tu croyais que c'était quoi, tout ça ? Ce n'était qu'une marque temporaire, rien de plus. Je ne t'ai jamais vue autrement que comme une sœur. » Je n'ai pas pleuré. Je n'ai pas crié. Je me suis simplement connectée par lien mental à mon ami d'enfance. « J'accepte l'invitation pour devenir Cheffe Guerrière de la meute de la Crête d'Argent. » Plus tard, quand Kade a découvert que j'avais attiré l'attention de son plus grand rival, il est devenu complètement fou.

Rocco Falcone, le Don de la famille Falcone et mon soi-disant mari, m'a raccroché au nez pour ce qui m'a semblé être la quatre-vingt-dix-neuvième fois. Après avoir reçu un diagnostic de leucémie, j'ai traîné mon corps ravagé jusqu'au cabinet de l'avocat de la famille. « Je viens pour le divorce », ai-je dit. … Quand Rocco l'a appris, il est arrivé dix minutes plus tard avec ma famille. À peine est-il entré qu'il m'a giflée. « Tu as utilisé la ligne d'urgence juste pour gâcher la grande soirée de Sofia ? Tu es devenue folle ? », a-t-il crié. Lily Marone, ma mère, m'a arraché le diagnostic des mains et l'a parcouru rapidement. Elle a laissé échapper un rire méprisant. « Tu as encore fait semblant d'être malade pour attirer l'attention ? Combien de mensonges as-tu racontés depuis que tu es enfant, Claire ? » Sofia Moretti tenait le bras de Rocco, les larmes aux yeux. « Pardonne-moi, Claire. Je n'aurais pas dû accepter ce poste. S'il te plaît, arrête de te faire du mal… et de faire du mal à Rocco. » J'ai essuyé le sang au coin de ma bouche, puis je me suis tournée de nouveau vers l'avocat. « Je n'avais plus de famille. Veuillez accélérer la procédure de divorce. J'ai besoin que tout soit réglé avant ma crémation, dans trois jours. »

CEO Cassandra Dalton hosted a celebration banquet and played Secret Crush with her company's core members. She voted for her assistant, William Quinton. Benjamin Jackson arrived late, only to see them locked in a passionate embrace. He hung the coat he was carrying by the door and walked away. When Cassandra saw the coat after the banquet, she panicked and ran home. Yet the familiar, busy figure she had hoped to see was nowhere. "Benjamin, don't misunderstand. William's just my assistant. Where are you? Come back. I accept your proposal." Benjamin had waited six years, believing that true devotion could win everything. But this time, he chose to let go.

Les ennemis des parents de ma sœur adoptive m'ont prise pour elle et m'ont enlevée. Avant que les voyous ne m'aient tuée, ils m'ont accordé trois appels pour demander de l'aide. Si quelqu'un acceptait de me donner trois cents euros, je pourrais vivre. Pour le premier appel, j'ai composé le numéro de mon père. Mon père n'a écouté aucun mot que j'ai dit. Il a immédiatement lâché un torrent d'injures. « Où es-tu ? Reviens à la maison tout de suite pour l'anniversaire de ta sœur ! » Pour le deuxième appel, j'ai appelé mon frère. Mon frère a écouté en silence ma supplication, puis il a raccroché avec un reniflement glacé. « Tu n'es jamais là quand la meute a besoin de toi. Qui va croire à cette comédie maintenant ? » Pour le troisième appel, j'ai appelé mon fiancé. Il n'a même pas répondu. Quand j'ai rappelé, il m'a bloquée. Le loup renégat a ri de moi. « On dirait qu'être la fille aînée de la famille des Thomas ne signifie pas grand-chose, hein ? » Après qu'il m'a torturée à mort, il a fourré mon corps dans une valise et l'a jetée dans la rivière.

"Ms. Hall, these are the details of the feigned death service you booked with us. The date of death is set for the wedding, half a month from now. The cause of death will be suicide by drowning, and the deceased is yourself. Please confirm and sign here." Wendy Hall nodded. Without hesitation, she signed her name at the bottom of the document. The bustling street was alive with chatter and movement. As Wendy walked home alone, she glanced up, and there it was—the giant screen on a nearby building, looping a video of Grayson Bryce proposing to her.

While exploring the wilderness, my younger sister—Charlotte Forrester—and I accidentally stumble onto the territory of supernatural beings. She grabs the hand of the noble, elegant male elf, her posture coy and intimate. Before I can react, a wolfman with a scar on his face wraps his arm around my waist and leads me away. Charlotte, who judges others by appearance, is unaware that the male elf—Elwin Duskwood—belongs to a tribe of half-elves. Half-elves are beautiful but possess no real capabilities. They are considered a marginalized group among elves and struggle to make ends meet every day. On the other hand, the wolfman—Morgan Nightshade—is a mid-tier wolf tribe's Highlord. After giving birth to an extremely rare silver wolf for him, I have become the Highlady of the tribe. I'm respected by everyone in the tribe and feast on delicacies every day. Meanwhile, Charlotte becomes emaciated after suffering from starvation for several months. When she sees how plump I am, she goes insane from jealousy. While the wolf tribe is entertaining guests at a banquet, she uses poison to kill me. The next time I open my eyes, Charlotte and I are back at the moment we first entered the supernatural beings' territory by mistake. Charlotte immediately hugs Morgan by the waist and kisses him. She showers him with flattery about his strength, calling him the man of her dreams. I can't help but laugh out loud. Silly Charlotte. As a wolfman, Morgan is ill-tempered, and he easily loses control of his emotions. He also becomes even more bloodthirsty after transforming. It's not all sunshine and rainbows being his mate. But I never imagined the elves could be so… in that regard.
