Octavia Mondragon had never thought that the Stone-hearted Monster would ever succumb to her wishes.

Hakim was every girl's dream at Northwest High, and every guy's role model. He was hot, smart, popular, romantic and all, and every girl's dream was to get laid by him. He was living the dream life, but he had one single problem; Dante. Dante was the complete vice versa of Hakim. Soft, gentle, unnoticed, innocent, and these traits drew Hakim's heart towards him, and for that reason, Hakim hated him. He hated his lingering gazes and admiring glances, and he hated that he felt the need to hold him, to protect him, and for that reason he resolved to torment Dante, making his high school days unbearable. Dante was forever scarred by him, and his heart broke into pieces. Now, years later, after the two drifted apart, going on to their two separate worlds, Dante builds an image for himself, he is no longer the timid, innocent boy he was back at Northwest High, but is now a top corporate lawyer in the industry, and a fine one at that. What happens when he is hired by a law firm and finds out that his boss is no other person but Hakim? What will evolve as mysteries unfold and actual truth gets told?

"Enid knows that something is wrong with Asher. He doesn't...want her? That can't be possible. The mating bond doesn't allow that. So, what is wrong? With her? No. Something else. Something darker...more sinister, tugs at the back of his mind, telling him, that she can't be his. And she would get to the bottom of it. Because this alpha is hers."

Bata pa lamang si Bianca ay pangarap na niyang maging isang madre, kaya naman kahit mayaman ang pamilya nila ay walang nagawa ang mga magulang niya nang magdesisyon siyang pumasok sa kumbento after niya makagraduate ng Business Administration sa college. Ngunit noong gabing iyon bago niya tuluyang tanggapin na nakatadhana na siyang maglingkod sa Diyos buong buhay niya ay niyaya siya ng mga kaibigan niya na icelebrate ang last minute ng kanyang pagiging single, dahil kinabukasan ay magpapakasal na siya kay Lord. Ngunit sa hindi inaasahang pangyayari ay nalasing siya at nakainom siya ng alak na may halong ecstasy. Dinala siya ng mga kaibigan sa isang kuwarto sa itaas ng bar para sana makapagpahinga, pero pinasok siya ng isang estranghero at may nangyari sa kanila. Kahit hindi na malinis ay ipinagpatuloy pa rin ni Sister Bianca ang pagpasok sa kumbento, at pilit kinalimutan ang nangyaring noong gabing iyon. Ngunit makalipas ang dalawang buwan ay nalaman niyang buntis siya. Nanganak siya ng lihim at dinala sa bahay-ampunan ang kanyang anak, pero nalaman niya na inampon ito ng biggest donor nila sa simbahan, ang milyonaryong si Mr. Vaughn Avery. Paano niya ngayon mababawi ang anak niya? Panahon na ba para lumabas siya ng kumbento? Ito na ba ang sign na matagal na niyang hinihingi sa Diyos?

Na vida passada, fiz de tudo para ajudar minha melhor amiga, mas em fim, fui traída pelo meu noivo e meu irmão, que juntos destruíram minha empresa. Me lembrei de que caída na chuva, enquanto os três riam da minha dor. — Lorena, olha para você! Igual a um cachorro abandonado! — Eles zombaram, cruéis. Mas, num piscar de olhos, voltei no tempo. Estava três anos atrás, na reunião decisiva da licitação. Naquela época, minha empresa ainda era pequena. Meu irmão e noivo fingiam se importar com ética, dizendo que eu não devia usar as conexões das famílias Duarte e Nogueira. Porém, pelas costas, davam o melhor projeto para "minha amiga" só para vê-la sorrir feliz.

Année 2279. La planète s’apprête à traverser une crise sociale et environnementale sans précédent. Les inégalités de classes entre les Éternels et les Éphémères atteignent leur paroxysme. L’ère de l’immortalité touche à sa fin, embarquant les populations dans un tourbillon d’interrogations, et les dirigeants dans des stratagèmes où l’éthique n’a pas sa place. Deux personnages occuperont un rôle crucial à l’aube de ce nouveau pan de l’Histoire. D’un côté Harold, usé par ses relations familiales et des capacités qui le dépassent, de l’autre Jeanne, frustrée par son extraordinaire absence de facultés. Au coeur de la forêt primaire, aux côtés de la dernière tribu libre du monde, tous deux s’appuieront sur la Nature et le Vivant pour trouver des réponses à leur quête de sens. Un roman d’aventure qui rend hommage à tous les opprimés, ces Silencieux qui n’en pensent pas moins. Cette histoire se déroule chronologiquement après « Les Éphémères sont éternels ». Pour autant, les deux livres peuvent se lire indépendamment et dans l’ordre qui vous plaira.

Renasci no dia em que minha irmã e eu tínhamos que escolher nossos futuros maridos, e foi aí que descobri que eu conseguia ouvir os pensamentos das pessoas. Ouvi minha irmã pensando: "Dessa vez, eu preciso garantir um bom marido antes dela." Logo em seguida, ela me puxou às pressas e levou embora o homem gentil que tinha sido meu marido na vida passada. E o homem que costumava bater nela todos os dias, o marido violento, sobrou pra mim. Eu apenas sorri. Ela realmente achava que o homem com quem eu me casei da outra vez era tão bom assim?

The heart that I had waited two years for was given to the fake heiress, Diane Bishop, by my husband. The doctor said that I only had a week left to live. So, I decided to undergo cryonics. I donated my body to Diane’s workshop. The day I signed the donation papers, my son threw himself into my arms and exclaimed that I had finally made up with Diane. My parents praised me for finally being a good sister to help out Diane. My husband was pleased when he said that I had finally let go of the grudge and had become more understanding. I chuckled. They were right, I had finally learned my lesson. I would give Diane my identity as the heir of Bishop Corporation and fulfill everyone’s wishes.

"I loved that I fell for you but I hated that I was your second. That second which always comes after first!" Lilian Evans got married to Richard Tucker after his first wife died. She couldn't keep her heart in place despite his rude and ignorant behaviour. Things got a little overboard and now she was stuck at a point of no return. How would Lilian unfold her life in chaos with the responsibility of being a mother? "Touching others' belongings without consent! You know that is bad manner, right?" Lilian turned in the direction of the voice only to find her husband standing there in the ebony rich suit, his tie a little loose as he gazed right into her soul. "Oh... Yeah, sorry. I was just-" "Your room is at the end of this hallway, closer to Aid's," he said, taking off his coat and not minding to let his bride complete her sentence.

During the eight years I spent by Alpha David’s side, I also raised the pup he had with my late sister. At his birthday banquet, I accidentally wore one of her old dresses. Eight-year-old Dorian grabbed a pot of freshly brewed coffee and poured it over me— right in front of the maids. The scalding liquid burned my skin, and when I looked up, I saw the same cold disgust in his eyes that I’d seen so many times in his father’s. “How dare you wear my mother’s dress?” he sneered. “You’ll never replace her. You killed her with that wicked heart of yours!” The coffee seared more than my flesh. It burned straight through my heart. I looked at the child I’d raised for eight long years. I didn’t feel angry. I didn’t even feel sad. Only a quiet kind of exhaustion. “Don’t worry,” I whispered. “I’ll leave tomorrow.”
