"Ang bodyguard ko pala ay isang Bilyonaryo!" Si Pristine Felize Vera Esperanza ay nag-iisang anak ni Pierre Vera Esperanza, isang bilyonaryo na kilalang-kilala sa larangan ng negosyo. Maraming tao ang nag-aakala na namumuhay siya tulad ng isang prinsesa, na mabait sa kaniya ang lahat at minamahal siya, ngunit ang katotohanan ay kabaligtaran nito. Her grandfather despises her when her parents suffered from car accident. Dahil doon ay matagal ang naging gamutan ng kaniyang ama na nagsanhi ng pagkalugi ng kanilang negosyo. Pristine has suffered from trauma because her mother died in that car accident and she was only five years old back then. Living in sadness, her life takes a turn when her father introduces Elijah Clementine Marasigan, her handsome bodyguard. He gave her a bodyguard because at the age of eighteen, she almost got herself killed. As the only child, and the successor, her father was terrified that something bad might happen to her. Indeed, something did happen, but for Pristine, it wasn't bad at all—she fell in love with Elijah. However, despite their mutual feelings, they cannot be together. Nais kasi ng kanyang lolo na ipakasal siya sa apo ng kaibigan nito. Isang mayamang lalaki at bilyonaryo na katulad ng kanilang pamilya, at hindi lamang isang bodyguard. Ano ang pipiliin ni Pristine? Susundin ba niya ang kagustuhan ng kanyang lolo o tatakas siya upang makasama ang kanyang minamahal?

My boyfriend, Simon Hepworth, gets down on one knee for the 66th time. Moved by his persistence, I finally say yes. But on the eve of our wedding, he drops a bombshell on me. He tells me he wants to have a child with his stepsister, Fiona Hepworth. I find it ridiculous and get into a huge fight with him. But I never could've imagined what would come next. On our wedding day, I wait at the altar for three hours, bouquet in my hands, only for him to dismissively tell me that the wedding is postponed. All because he and Fiona have an IVF appointment that very day. "Fiona was abused by her father growing up. She'll never be able to marry," he explains. "I just want to help her fulfill her dream of being a mother. It's just IVF. It's not like we're actually sleeping together. Stop being so sensitive." He then hangs up, leaving me alone at the wedding under the gaze of countless guests and flashing media cameras. The shock sends my father into the ICU. Standing by his bedside, I make a vow. "Dad, you were right. I won't marry Simon. Next week, I'll come home and take over the family business."

Leopard shifters believe in arranged marriages and not fate but Cheska never did. Raised on stories of destined mates, she knows the truth the moment Vladimir Arkansas, a powerful wolf Alpha, walks into her den. He is her mate. Ignoring her family’s warnings about wolves and their hatred for leopard kind, Cheska follows Vladimir to his pack and becomes his Luna. She gives everything to the bond, enduring cold stares, cruel words, and the silent rejection of Vladimir’s family believing love will be enough. When Cheska finally becomes pregnant after years of trying, she plans to reveal it on Vladimir’s birthday. Instead, she walks into an engagement party of her mate, Vladimir, to Erica, his childhood sweetheart. The diamond ring meant for Cheska now rests on another woman’s hand, and Cheska learns she was never the choice, only a temporary replacement, a place holder. Heartbroken and fleeing in shame, Cheska is involved in a tragic accident and disappears. Believed dead, she survives with no memories of her past. Rescued by a dying Alpha named Pierre, she is given a new life as Violet Savage, a woman who chooses not to remember, marries her savior, and raises the son who miraculously survived the crash. Years later, fate brings her back into Vladimir’s world. She doesn’t recognize him but he recognizes her. Especially when he sees the child with unmistakable mismatched eyes of amber and blue. Determined to win the family he lost, Vladimir draws closer until Erica’s return triggers Violet’s buried memories and awakens Cheska’s fury. Betrayal, love, and pain collide as Vladimir fights to earn forgiveness and rebuild the bond he once shattered. Will Cheska forgive him or will she finally have her revenge?

Le jour de notre cinquième anniversaire, Liam ne m'a offert qu'une simple marque de protection. Mais cette même nuit, il a scellé l'Union Sacrée avec Stéphanie, son premier amour. J'ai refusé d'y croire. Il m'a traitée d'illogique. « Mon Union avec Stéphanie, c'est pour l'avenir de la meute, pas par sentiment ! » m'a-t-il lancé, « Tu n'es qu'une humaine. Ma marque devrait te suffire. C'était ton ultime épreuve, Hélène. Tu m'as déçu. » Je suis alors partie. Et il a demandé Stéphanie en mariage le soir même. Cinq ans plus tard, nous nous sommes retrouvés dans un hôtel luxueux désigné par le Conseil des Alphas. Sa meute était sur le point de dominer la région. Stéphanie, vêtue d'une robe de soie lunaire, se tenait à son bras. Quand il m'a vue, couverte de sable, debout dans la fontaine décorative, il a froncé les sourcils. « Hélène », a-t-il ricané, « tu as méprisé ma protection. Regarde-toi maintenant. Je parie qu'aucune meute n'accepterait une humaine. Ne crois pas que ta pitié m'attendrira. » Je l'ai ignoré. La pierre lunaire, trésor ramassé sur la plage par mon fils, avait roulé dans la fontaine. Le pauvre chou sautillait d'impatience, et il me fallait que je retrouve son porte-bonheur...

La veille de notre cérémonie, Asher, mon futur compagne Alpha, prend son amour d'enfance, Séléna, dans ses bras. « Si je ne peux pas être avec une fille aussi bonne que Séléna, », dit-il, « je pense que je vais le regretter toute ma vie. » « Ella, laisse-nous juste une nuit. Après cette nuit, je te serai fidèle à vie. Tu seras la Luna irremplaçable de la meute du Pin d'Argent. » Je le fixe pendant un moment, voyant qu'il est sérieux, je hoche la tête pour approuver sa décision. Il prend Séléna dans ses bras et tous les deux s'en vont dans la forêt. Quand il passe à côté de moi, il sourit en coin. « Ce soir, Ella, tu es libre d'être avec un autre loup, toi aussi. Je ne t'en tiendrai pas compte. » « Pas besoin de chercher trop loin. », je lui réponds d'un ton calme avant d'aller en direction d'une silhouette qui m'attend dans l'ombre. Lucas, l'Alpha de la meute de la Pierre Noire, notre meute rivale... et mon premier amour avec qui ça n'a pas marché avant même que les choses ne commencent. « Alpha Lucas. », je murmure en croisant son regard intense. « Ce soir, fais en sorte que je devienne la tienne... s'il te plaît. »

No puedo decírtela. —¿Hay recompensa por responder correctamente? —pregunté atrevidamente mientras me inclinaba hacia atrás para mirarle a la cara. Cuanto más tiempo pasaba sentada en su regazo, más segura me sentía. Diosa, ayúdame.Sus ojos se oscurecieron y sus palabras salieron más como un gruñido: —Sí."Seduciendo al Alfa Mayor" es una obra de A.B. Elwin, autora de eGlobal Creative Publishing.

"You know I can't talk while you're here", he says. His voice is rough, dangerous and hungry. I swallow, my throat dry. But I don't look away. "Why?" I ask, my fingers trace his jaw, trembling. "I'll be good. Promise". A dark laugh rumbles through his chest. "I don't want good", he says, voice rough. "I want you screaming my name… just not here. Not in front of the president and the damn press". His control slips as he buries his face in my neck. His lips burn where they touch. "Christ", he mutters. "What are you doing to me? I have a speech to deliver. But I can't even remember the first line. I swear I know it, but…" "You're a dirty bastard", I whisper, breathless. "Yours", he says, his teeth grazing my earlobe.
