Overlord Volume 12 Audiobook Release Date

He shouldn’t have imagined her lying naked on his bed. She shouldn’t have imagined his devilishly handsome face between her legs. But it was too late. Kiara began noticing Ethan's washboard abs when he hopped out of the pool, dripping wet after swim practice. Ethan began gazing at Kiara’s golden skin in a bikini as a grown woman instead of the girl next door he grew up with. That kiss should have never happened. It was just one moment in a lifetime of moments, but they both felt its power. They knew the thrumming in their veins and desperation in their bodies might give them all they ever wanted or ruin everything if they followed it. Kiara and Ethan knew they should have never kissed. But it's too late to take that choice back, so they have a new one to make. Fall for each other and risk their friendship or try to forget one little kiss that might change everything. PREVIEW: “If you don’t want to kiss me then... let’s swim.” “Yeah, sure.” “Naked.” “What?” “I always wanted to try skinny dipping. And I really want to get out of these clothes.” “What if someone catches you... me, both?” “We will be in the pool, Ethan. And no one can see us from the living room.” I smirked when I said, “Unless you want to watch me while I swim, you can stay here.” His eyes darkened, and he looked away, probably thinking the same when I noticed red blush creeping up his neck and making his ears and cheeks flush. Cute. “Come on, Ethan. Don’t be a chicken...” “Fine.” His voice was rough when he said, “Remove that sweater first.”

I looked at him, smiling back, thinking it was all a game, but deep down, I felt the pulse of something far more real. His hand brushing down to my waist, teasing my ability to give in. And in that quiet, I didn’t know it yet, but my body was about to betray me completely, as I melted into his burning touch. He looked into my eyes, leaning slightly closer than I expected. "Can I kiss you?" Roy asked, almost like he was at the verge of smashing his lips against mine. ******* Hailey Queen was done playing nice after her ex humiliated her, dumped in front of the whole school and took her step sister to prom. Now it’s her turn to ruin his perfect little world. And what better way than to show up with the school’s hottest new obsession—Royd Williams, the cold, mysterious hockey captain everyone wants but no one can have. *******Trigger warning****** Smut**Smut**

Evelyn Larson's nephew, Maxwell Larson, has been staying at my home for 12 years. On top of sponsoring everything he has in life, I even view him as my own son. Heck, I'm the one who paid the down payment for Maxwell's new family home. But on the night we're having a holiday dinner, he throws me a list in front of everyone. "Uncle Lawrence, I've already hashed out the details with my fiancee's family. We'll be giving her family 700 thousand dollars as a wedding gift. You've raised me for so many years, so you need to prepare this amount for me." I frown instantly. "Didn't I just settle your down payment for you? Besides, Tiffany's about to get married soon. I need to save some money for her own wedding gift." But Maxwell instantly smashes a plate out of anger. "Since she's marrying into another family, that means she's no longer a part of this family! Are you saying that you're willing to give your money to an outsider rather than your own nephew? "If you refuse to agree to my terms, I'll make Aunt Evelyn divorce you right now!" I turn to look at Evelyn out of instinct, only to see her pulling out a gift agreement that she has already drafted. "We don't need to prepare any wedding gifts for Tiffany, seeing as she's the one marrying into another family. Max, on the other hand, is the only son of the Larson family. You should give your money to him instead."

妹・結城結愛（ゆうき ゆあ）がまた入院した。原因は、私・結城望美（ゆうき のぞみ）が部屋の窓を開けて風を通したこと。 母・結城雅美（ゆうき まさみ）は病室の外で私の鼻先を指差して喚き散らし、その飛沫が私の顔に容赦なく飛んでくる。 「あんたなんか、連れ戻すんじゃなかった！お祖母ちゃんの躾が悪かったのね。妹をいじめるために帰ってきたんでしょ！ もし結愛に万が一のことがあったら、あんたも生きていられないと思いなさい！」 深夜。家の中は水を打ったように静まり返っている。 黒い服を着た背の高い死神のおじさんが壁をすり抜けて現れ、真っ直ぐに妹のベッドの枕元へと向かった。 「結城結愛。寿命が尽きた、私と来い」 妹は深く眠っているが、私は目を覚ましている。 私は床に敷いた布団から這い上がり、妹のベッドの前に立ち塞がった。声は震えていたが、決して逃げたりはしない。 「おじさん、人違いだよ。寝ているのはお姉ちゃんで、私こそが結城結愛なの」 振り返り、熟睡している母を一瞥する。母は夢の中でさえ、眉間に深く皺を寄せている。 私がいなくなれば、お母さんはもっと幸せになれるかもしれない。 「おじさん、私逃げないよ。でも、三日だけ待ってくれないかな？ お母さんの誕生日を、お祝いしてあげたいの」

森田グループの社長である夫の森田勲（もりた いさお）と、12回目の体外受精のために病院へ向かう途中、知らない番号から電話が入った。 スマホの画面をちらりと見た瞬間、勲の表情がこわばった。 「取締役会の緊急会議だ」 そう言って立ち上がると、勲は慣れた手つきでジャケットの袖を整えた。 「国際合併の件でトラブルが起きた。先に戻っていてくれ、会議が終わったらすぐ戻るから」 診察室のドアが閉まる。看護師がカルテを手に持ち、戸惑った顔で私を見た。 「森田さん、胚の解凍プロセスを開始しますが、このまま進めますか？」 私は握りしめてしわくちゃになった同意書を見下ろした。 緊急会議？ 小林グループは森田グループにとって最大のスポンサーだ。そんな緊急の会議があるのなら、この小林家の令嬢である私が知らないはずがないのに。

Desperate to lose her virginity, Gracie, asks the new transferred boy out, the school nerd; Jason Drew. Well that's what she presumed, seeing the thick frame covering those eyes, that never left the books and the hand that never left the pens. He seemed like a perfect guy whom she could easily manipulate. Innocent and dumb. Seeing him so antisocial can mean only one thing right? That he has no experience in the field of sexual activity. Well at least that's what Gracie thought. But little did she know, innocence is far fetched from his dictionary. Nerd and innocent was never his thing. Never! The guy she just asked was a complete dominant and ruthless in bed, that can actually result in getting her on a wheelchair in a single night. "Sure, Gracie!" he said, "Meet you after the school." And the countdown begins...

Kyla Adams is a workaholic. I mean, who wouldn't be when you're working your dream job? She is one of the many writers for a startup business in North Carolina called "Clicked," where the focus is writing about hot gossip, new trends, and out of the ordinary experiences. Think of this social media app as an online magazine, where the workers are gossip hungry millennials and Gen Z'ers all trying to top one another. And the best part- Dakota Kramer; the hot young CEO at the top floor of the office building. Kyla is the job. She thrives on gossip and is a phenomenal writer, but lately her articles have been dryer than her dating life. After Dakota threatens to fire her if she doesn't step out of her comfort zone, Kyla and her friends drunkenly email Dakota an exciting new article proposal titled "EleDATE." What does the hell does this mean? Kyla must ride the elevator every morning, starting from floor 1 up to floor 50-the top floor- with a hand picked single guy from the office. The catch? She's blindfolded. She must rely on her instincts about the "bachelors" and the impressions they make during their limited time riding together- and they must remain anonymous. With over 100 employees in the building, 50 floors, and 20 single men willing to participate, this will sure make for an intriguing article and a literal make or break career moment. And let's face it... there's just something about elevators.
