Of Stormlarks And Silence Summary

Eighteen-year-old Zenith Valencia has always lived life with one foot in the shadows. A quiet soul with a paintbrush and a guarded heart, she finds comfort in sunsets, solitude, and the safety of emotional distance, until a chance encounter at the town’s old observatory changes everything. One moment, she's sketching the horizon. The next, she's being swept into the arms of a mysterious stranger, one whose very presence radiates danger, mystery, and something far more primal. He calls her mate. Alejandro Wolfgang isn’t just a werewolf, he’s a walking contradiction. Born of two worlds, rejected by his alpha father, and forced into silence by years of brutal abuse, Alejandro teeters on the edge of losing his humanity. For three long years, his wolf has kept him from falling into the abyss, but it’s Zenith, his fated mate, who finally pulls him back from the brink. To Zenith, Alejandro is odd, soft-spoken, maybe even autistic. But beneath the quiet eyes and childlike innocence lies a fierce, wounded soul with a secret that could upend both their lives. A glowing sapphire bracelet, a mother’s buried shame, and a night long forgotten hold the key to Alejandro’s true identity, and his dangerous potential. As Alejandro finds peace in Zenith’s presence, something ancient stirs within him. And as their bond deepens, so does the danger. Because Alejandro’s enemies aren’t just from his past…they’re hunting his future. In a world where wolves reign in secret and humans are forbidden, Zenith is more than just Alejandro’s mate, she may be the antidote to a curse older than either of them can imagine. His curse was eternal. Her touch was the cure.

Betrayed. Broken. But not defeated. When Kayden stood before Clove and spat the words, “That is not my child. You cheated on me!”—her world shattered. Three months pregnant and deeply in love, Clove never imagined her husband would accuse her of such a thing. “I would never betray you,” she cried, clutching her belly. But her pleas fell on deaf ears. Her own sister, once her confidante, turned cold. “Sis, the evidence is solid. I wanted to stand by you… But you’ve disgraced our family.” Clove’s blood ran cold. “This is your doing. You and your venomous mother,” she screamed. But Kayden had made up his mind. “I don’t trust you. Get out.” One shove, one fall—and everything was lost. That night, Clove bled more than just tears. She lost her child… and the man she thought she’d grow old with. The next morning, the divorce papers came as mercilessly as his accusations. She signed them in silence and disappeared. Years later, Clove returned. No longer the weeping wife, she was now a powerful CEO. Her first move? Destroy Kayden’s empire. But Kayden was no ordinary enemy, and her plans met wall after wall… until he came. A mysterious man with piercing eyes and a quiet, dangerous charm. “Marry me,” he said, “and no one—not even Kayden—will be able to stop you.” She narrowed her eyes. “You’re his uncle. Why betray your own blood? And why me?” He smirked. “Marry me first. Then I’ll tell you truths that will change everything you think you know.”

“We’re friends,” I said, voice barely steady. Aaron’s lips curled, slow and cruel. “No, we’re not.” “Friendship’s too pure for this.” His hand slid to my waist, hot and claiming as he yanked me flush against him. “Do friends kiss like this?” He kissed me. Hard. Possessive. “Or grab each other like this?” A squeeze to my ass. A gasp. “Or think filthy little thoughts?” His breath burned against my ear. “Touch themselves to it?” My cheeks flamed. My body betrayed me. “Stop lying, Venus.” His voice was a growl. “I feel it. Every time I’m near you.” I whispered, “But you don’t even like me.” His smile was pure sin. “I don’t have to like you to fuck you.” Then the offer: “Let’s get it out of our system. No lies. No strings. Just truth.” He grabbed my chin, eyes lit with hunger. “Say the word, princess.” A whisper against my lips— “I’ll ruin you.” And God help me… I wanted him to. --------- Aaron Sinclair needs a bride to claim his inheritance. Venus Carter needs a miracle to save her dying mother. What begins as a cold contract marriage spirals into a dangerous game of buried trauma, stolen identities, and forbidden attachment. He’s ruthless, closed off, and refuses to love. She’s resilient, lost, and refuses to stay unloved. But when secrets unravel revealing a stolen childhood, a tragic past, and a vengeful stepmother, their fake marriage is the only thing standing between them and destruction. In a world ruled by power and silence, will love dare to speak first or break them both instead?

Zoé, 29 ans, est une illustratrice un peu maladroite mais brillante, qui noie ses insomnies dans des litres de café, des podcasts sur l’amour toxique… et les sextoys qu’elle teste pour son blog anonyme. Elle pense avoir tout compris de l'amour jusqu'à ce qu’elle tombe (littéralement) dans les bras de Jules, un photographe ténébreux qui lui donne envie d’effacer toutes ses règles. Mais il y a Raphaël, son meilleur ami depuis dix ans, confident de toutes ses crises existentielles, qui l’aime en silence… sauf que maintenant, il ne se tait plus. Alors que Jules l’entraîne dans un tourbillon de passion charnelle, entre jeux interdits et confessions à demi-nus, Raphaël, lui, lui offre une tendresse brûlante, pleine de regards qui savent déjà tout d’elle. Zoé, tiraillée entre la brûlure du désir et la douceur du cœur, se perd dans un triangle aussi torride que cruel. Entre scènes sulfureuses, maladresses hilarantes (et orgasmes imprévus), Zoé va devoir faire un choix. Mais l’amour n’a rien d’un scénario bien rangé. Et parfois, aimer, c’est aussi faire mal à soi, ou à l’autre. Un roman où on rit, on pleure, on soupire… et on fond.

Three year after my death, my former mate returned— not to mourn me, but to make use of me one last time. It was the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year—the night when wolves whispered to the dead. “Where’s Mira Thorne?” Rowan demanded as he strode downstairs into the tavern beneath the den. “Her lived here—Gavin’s sister. I need to find her.” Dorian, the tavern keeper, glanced up slowly. “Mira?” he repeated, wiping his hands on a cloth. “She’s gone, Doctor. Died three winters ago. Same night the Moon rose red.” Rowan’s brows knit. “Dead? That’s impossible. There’s no record.” Dorian’s voice softened. “The family from that healing case—remember them? They found her in the alley behind this inn. Tore her apart before dawn. The healers couldn’t even retrieve her wolf.” Rowan froze, a flicker of disbelief passing across his face before irritation took over. “No. She’s pretending. She’s doing this to make me feel guilty.” he said sharply. “She’s hiding. She always was weak. Tell her if her doesn’t come out within three days, I’ll stop sending money for brother’s treatment.” He turned abruptly and left, the tavern door slamming behind him. Dorian sighed after him., shaking his head. “brother? Her brother died before the healers even arrived… there was never any money for treatment.” The silence that followed was heavier than snow. Dorian watched the falling snow and murmured to the empty air, “No one pretends death, Doctor. Not when they’ve already lost everything.”

The air crackled with menace, each syllable a poisoned dart. "You belong to me. You'll serve me. Do this and be quiet if you want to live." These were the ironclad words that slammed down on Miguel and Alejandro, forging a link of fear and obligation. Miguel , a shadow in the city's underbelly, found his deadly profession twisted into a personal debt. A botched hit, a life spared – the mafia prince demanded repayment in flesh and loyalty.
