Liora pensait que ce soir serait la plus belle de sa vie. Elle était censée devenir Luna, aux côtés de Kaelen. Mais au lieu de cela, elle est trahie devant tout le monde. Humiliée et le cœur brisé, elle fait un choix désespéré : elle choisit un inconnu, l'Alpha Dalin, comme compagnon. Dalin est fort, froid et impitoyable. Il l'emmène avec lui, lui imposant des règles strictes qu'elle ne peut transgresser.

Au moment où Léa Laurent a fait une fausse couche, Mathis Bernard célébrait le retour de son premier amour. Malgré trois années de dévouement et de présence à ses côtés, il les a réduits à dire qu’elle n’était que la domestique et la cuisinière de la maison. Léa a perdu tout espoir et a décidé de divorcer. Tous les amis du milieu savaient que Léa était connue pour être collante, impossible de s’en débarrasser. « Je parie qu’en une journée, Léa reviendra sagement. » Mathis a répondu : « Un jour ? Trop long, au plus une demi-journée et elle reviendra d’elle-même. » Au moment du divorce, Léa a décidé de ne plus revenir en arrière ; elle s’est lancée dans une nouvelle vie, a repris sa carrière abandonnée et a commencé à rencontrer de nouvelles personnes. Les jours ont passé, et Mathis n’a plus jamais revu Léa à la maison. Mathis a soudain paniqué. Mais lors d’un sommet professionnel, il a enfin vu Léa entourée par une foule. Il s’est précipité vers elle sans hésiter, « Léa, tu n’as pas encore fini de faire la tête ? » Arthur Perrot s’est brusquement interposé devant Léa, l’a repoussé d’une main, dégageant une aura glaciale et intimidante, « Ne touche pas à ta belle-sœur. » Mathis ne l’avait jamais aimée ; mais quand il est tombé amoureux d’elle, elle n’avait déjà plus de place pour lui à ses côtés.

Evelyn Bright walked into Ashfield Construction for a typist job and came out a whore. A dirty secret. But all she wants to do now is pick up the pieces of her shattered dignity and walk away. Nothing good can come from falling in love with a cold-hearted bastard like Roman Ashfield. Roman has very simple rules in his contract. If she breaks them she has to leave. It’s less complicated that way. But Evelyn turns his ordered life upside down when she tries to walk away. It’s not love, it can’t be. But what lengths is he willing to go to to keep her where she belongs?

They say love can be a beautiful thing. But for me, it's a twisted waking nightmare. Edmondo D'Avi, the ruthless Don of the North, doesn't just love me. He has claimed me. And he owns me. And his words? "...I Saved you, so I own you, Cara..." "I hate it, Cara. I hate it all." ".....when men look at you, I'd gouge their eyes out." "If they get too close, I'll pull out my gun." "If they talk to you as much, I'd ensure they’ll never speak again." "I dare you, Cara, to smile at ONE of them, and watch me shoot ALL of them dead..." He also hated the way they admired my red hair, so he dyed it black. And when that wasn’t enough, he cut it off. I, Cara La Rosa, am bound to a psychopath by a single oath I was forced into and dare not break: to become his Donna. I never had the chance to refuse. Possession. Obsession. Manipulation. Lies. Dark truths. Betrayals. Revenge. And all of it that suffocates every single breath I take is tangled with the one thing that keeps me alive: LOVE. I love Edmondo D'Avi. But love isn’t kind. It doesn’t protect. It consumes. Now, I’m caught in a world of ruthless power, where loyalty is a weapon and betrayal is a breath away. The question is no longer whether I’ll survive. It’s whether I’ll lose myself to his darkness... or become the darkness he moulds me to be. In the end, the choices are: Surrender or SURRENDER!

Je courais derrière le ballon de Samira comme si ma vie en dépendait. Elle riait aux éclats, cette petite tornade de cinq ans, pendant que le vent emportait son jouet vers l’inconnu. — Naïla, attrape-le ! cria-t-elle, les bras levés. J’avais dix-huit ans, une gamine encore, mais déjà tout pour elle : sa sœur, sa mère, son monde, depuis que le nôtre s’était effondré. Alors je courais, pieds nus, ma robe trop grande flottant autour de moi. Le ballon roula jusqu’aux marches d’un grand hôtel. Il atterrit… juste devant lui. Un homme. Immobile, costume noir, une rose blanche à la main. Son regard perdu dans le vide. Derrière lui, des dizaines d’invités en tenues élégantes. Silencieux. Figés. Je me suis arrêtée, haletante. Tous les regards s’étaient tournés vers moi. Mais lui… ne voyait que moi. Il m’a fixée longuement. Ses yeux se sont allumés, comme si une idée folle venait de naître. Puis il a tendu la main — vers moi, pas le ballon. — Toi, viens ici, dit-il d’une voix glacée. Je suis restée figée, tremblante. Un murmure a traversé la foule : — C’est elle… Il l’a choisie. Derrière, une femme a crié : — Il a perdu la tête ! Épouser une inconnue ? Une gamine ? Mais il s’est avancé. Lentement. Et quand il s’est arrêté, il a dit, calmement, comme une évidence : — Tu es au bon endroit, au bon moment. Tu seras ma femme. Aujourd’hui.

Ava was human! So why had the Council ordered her to attend Phoenix Academy—a place teeming with supernatural beings where the only other humans were donors? Ava's plan to keep her head down and survive until they figured out she didn't belong there was shattered from day one. Clashing with the insufferably arrogant Zeke made keeping her mouth shut impossible. In his final year at the Academy, Zeke was set to become Alpha of the largest pack in the country. His first act of power would be to take revenge on the pack that killed his mother. But the arrival of a stubborn human girl with the most intoxicating scent threatened everything he’d worked for. A human should never have survived even a day at the academy. Yet despite the taunts, the ‘accidents’, and the threats to her life, the little human did. And every day that she did, his control slipped. Even with everything he stood to lose, he ached to make her submit to him in every single way.

Fake it 'til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died. I'm also doing a really bad job at the making it part. The night we met, I was at my lowest. But you gave me a reason to feel happy again. For the first time in over a year, I was optimistic. You and I? We're the same. Don't form attachments. Follow the rules. Don't dream of a future. Too bad our hearts wouldn't listen. And this storm we're going through? The one that threatens to rip us apart? It doesn't care that I'm falling for you.
