Pretty U

Sienna Valeria Storm pensait que son seul crime était d’avoir survécu. En tant que dernière Louve Rubis, elle est traquée, accusée du meurtre d’un Alpha et forcée de vivre cachée. Mais lorsqu’elle croise le chemin de Kieran Draven Wolfe, l’Alpha le plus redouté de la meute Shadowfang, son destin est scellé. Il lui offre un choix — être jugée et exécutée, ou devenir sa compagne pour briser sa terrible malédiction. Mais Kieran n’est pas le seul à être attiré par elle. Ronan Voss, un assassin venu de son passé oublié, a reçu l’ordre de la tuer, mais son cœur s’y refuse. Caius Blackthorne, un prince vampire, lui propose le pouvoir en échange de sa loyauté. Tandis que les Épreuves Célestes la forcent à choisir un compagnon, des forces obscures s’élèvent et des secrets longtemps enfouis refont surface. Car la Confrérie de Minuit ne veut pas seulement sa mort — elle veut son pouvoir. Et la vérité ? Si Sienna s’unit au mauvais compagnon, elle pourrait condamner le monde entier. Elle est née légende. Elle mourra reine — ou monstre.

Un an après notre mariage, Sébastien est soudainement devenu distant, comme s'il faisait vœu d'abstinence. Il a fait aménager un petit sanctuaire privé au cœur de la villa, et son chapelet ne quittait jamais sa main. Peu importait la manière dont je tentais de le séduire, Sébastien restait de marbre, absolument insensible. Puis, une nuit, alors que je me tenais devant la porte de la salle de bain, j'ai vu de mes propres yeux qu'il s'abandonnait à son désir devant la photo d'une autre femme. Il s'avérait que Sébastien n'était pas dépourvu de sentiments ; il était simplement dépourvu de sentiments pour moi. J'ai réussi à lui faire signer l'accord de divorce par ruse, puis j'ai complètement disparu de son univers. On m'a dit, plus tard, qu'il était devenu fou à force de me chercher. Nous nous sommes revus lors du mariage de son oncle, Julien. Je portais une robe de mariée blanche, tandis qu'il avait les yeux rougis, incapable d'accepter cette réalité.

Mein Ehemann drohte mir zum hundertsten Mal mit Scheidung, um mich zu opfern – für meine Schwester. Ich weinte nicht und machte keinen Aufstand. Stattdessen unterschrieb ich still die Scheidungspapiere. Freiwillig übergab ich meiner Schwester den Mann, den ich zehn Jahre lang geliebt hatte. Einige Tage später machte meine Schwester auf einem Bankett unverschämte Äußerungen und zog sich den Zorn einer mächtigen Familie zu. Wieder nahm ich freiwillig die Schuld auf mich und trug alle Konsequenzen für sie. Später schlugen sie vor, ich solle als Versuchsperson für die Forschung meiner Schwester dienen. Ich willigte bereitwillig ein. Meine Eltern sagten, ich sei endlich brav und vernünftig geworden. Sogar mein gleichgültiger Ehemann stand an meinem Krankenbett, strich mir zum ersten Mal seit Langem sanft über die Wange und sagte: „Hab keine Angst, das Experiment ist nicht lebensgefährlich. Wenn du zurückkommst, koche ich dir etwas Leckeres.“ Doch er wusste nicht: Egal, ob das Experiment gefährlich war oder nicht, er würde nicht auf mich warten können. Denn ich litt an einer unheilbaren Krankheit und würde bald sterben.

Ma meilleure amie et moi avons épousé les héritiers d'une grande famille fortunée. J'ai dit « oui » à l'aîné, Alexandre, un brillant chirurgien, tandis qu'elle s'est unie au cadet, Thomas, un PDG aussi brillant que glacial. Le jour de notre mariage, Alexandre s'est volatilisé pour aider son ex à retrouver son chien perdu. Un comble ! Ma grand-mère, sous le choc, a fait une crise cardiaque. J'ai supplié Alexandre de revenir pour la sauver. « Tu as perdu la tête, Emma ? » m'a-t-il lancé, furieux. « Tu serais prête à maudire ta seule famille pour me faire revenir ? Chloé est désespérée, son chien a disparu. On peut toujours reporter la cérémonie. » Ce jour-là, elle a retrouvé son stupide animal, mais moi, j'ai perdu ma grand-mère à jamais. Je me suis effondrée en larmes. À mon réveil, j'ai regardé Juliette droit dans les yeux : « Je vais demander le divorce. Et toi ? » Elle m'a serrée contre elle, les joues ruisselantes : « Moi aussi, c'est fini. » Quand les frères Lefèvre ont reçu nos demandes de divorce, ils ont pleuré comme des enfants...

Ich war im neunten Monat schwanger. Ein ehemaliger Mitarbeiter, der meinen Mann hasste, weil dieser ihn ersetzt hatte, schleppte mich auf das Dach und stich Dutzende Male auf mich ein. Mein Mann, der Chef des Rettungsteams, mobilisierte unterdessen alle seine Leute, um seine depressive Jugendliebe aufzuhalten, die ihre Mietwohnung in Brand setzen wollte. Ich bat ihn nicht um Hilfe. Im letzten Leben hatte ich ihn angefleht, da hatte er sie zurückgelassen, um mich zu retten. Unser Baby und ich überlebten. Sie jedoch kam in den Flammen um, nachdem sie die Wohnung angezündet hatte. Er machte mir äußerlich keine Vorwürfe und buchte sogar einen Privatkreißsaal für mich. Doch genau an meinem Entbindungstag fesselte er mich. Stach auf mich ein. Auf unser Baby. Immer wieder! „Das war alles abgekartet mit ihm, stimmt’s?“, brüllte er. „Diese Messerstiche waren doch nicht schwer! Du wärst bestimmt nicht gestorben!“ „Wenn du Messerstiche so liebst – dann krieg sie jetzt!“ Als ich die Augen aufschlug, war ich zurückgewesen. Zurück auf diesem Dach, als Geisel. Diesmal war mein Entschluss gefasst: Ich würde ihn lassen, damit er sie retten konnte.

He stole the wrong girl. Or maybe… she chose the right king. Dante Valenti rules his empire with cold precision and a reputation soaked in blood. No one crosses him. No one deceives him. And no one escapes him. So when he kidnaps a woman from the Moretti estate—a trembling little princess meant to be leverage—he expects fear. Instead, the woman chained in his basement looks him dead in the eyes… and smiles. Aria Moretti has spent years hiding behind silk dresses and a porcelain mask, pretending to be the quiet, obedient daughter of the Moretti crime family. But beneath the pretty facade lies a secret no one suspects: She is the Moretti’s most lethal weapon. A phantom. A blade disguised as a flower. And she walked willingly into the lion’s den for one reason— to kill Dante Valenti. Her mission is simple: Get captured. Get close. Get his trust. End the king. But nothing about Dante is simple. The moment he discovers who she truly is, he doesn’t kill her. He claims her. "You came to kill me, little killer... but every king needs a queen.” Now, Aria is caught in a deadly dance between loyalty and desire, betrayal and obsession. Dante matches her darkness note for note—twisted, brilliant, and devastatingly irresistible. He should be her target. Instead, he’s becoming her temptation. And the deeper she falls, the clearer the truth becomes: She isn’t the only weapon in this war. Dante has claws of his own— and he’s willing to use every one of them to keep her.

A girl navigates a world she doesn't understand with only her soulmate to guide her through the perils of a foreign land. She meets him while free falling to planet Earth and has to gain his favour in order to save the entire planet from a fate worse than death! She tries her best to do everything she is told but eventually realises she has to use her own skills in order to create a world that is better for everyone..................................................................... "Once upon a time there was a girl. A very special girl with abilities no human being should have..... Chapter 1 'Most people's jobs are easy. The worst that can happen if you fail is you get fired, right? But on my first day I was told that if I failed in my duties, even just once, the world would end. I probably should have asked more questions at the time, but I was distracted by a pretty face.' The ticking of the click made the room feel emptier than it was. The clunky ticks and tocks echoed around the circular hall, bouncing off sleek walls and plastic enclosures. Those plastic screens were nine inches thick but reflected like sleek polished glass. Whether that shield of plastic was designed to keep him inside or keep everyone else out had never been explained to Maika. "You just sit and watch him," she had been told. That was the sum of her responsibilities. The entire explanation. "Sit in the outer ring. Use your enhanced focus. Don't take your eyes away from him for a second." "Him... Eigen."

On my way to work, I came across a livestream from an influencer who posted about her relationship, tagged at my company’s location. She was talking about her office romance with the CEO of a major corporation. But wasn’t the CEO of her company my husband? I clicked on her profile and saw that it was full of wedding-prep posts. The man never showed his face, but his build looked almost exactly like my husband’s. So I left a comment in the livestream: “I heard the CEO of Gibson Corporation has been married for a long time. So what does that make you...?” The streamer muted me, then instantly burst into tears. “The internet isn’t lawless. If you keep spreading rumors and calling me a mistress, I’m calling the police.” Her fans immediately swarmed me. “You’re probably the other woman yourself. That’s why your mind went there.” “I checked her profile. She’s some woman in her thirties. She’s obviously jealous because the streamer is young, pretty, and has a rich, powerful boyfriend who dotes on her.” “The account’s brand new. She’s obviously just a troll.” I tried to say more, only to realize I had already been kicked out of the livestream, and my account had been reported until I couldn’t even log back in. I stared at the proof of our marriage in the drawer for a long moment. Then I raised my hand and smacked my sleeping husband awake. “Exactly how many wives are you planning to have?”

From an abusive father, to a human trafficking syndicate just to find her lost sister. A man whose name was whispered in fear among the most feared becomes her saviour. Their only history was a night of no holds barred pleasure after she was rescued by him in a dirty alley on a cold November night. He says he’s not a hero, and everyone calls him dangerous. But he was the only safety she had ever known. ~ "I want you on my bed at all times, always ready for pleasure. I want you to only think about how good I make you feel, and I want you to scream my name so loudly you’ll lose your voice. That’s what makes me a villain. I want everyone to hear and know that you’re mine, only mine. I am not a hero, and you don’t need a hero. A hero would sacrifice you for the greater good, I would burn the world for you. All you need to do is ask.”

Six years ago, Adeline lost everything…her mate, her clan, and the life growing inside her. The fire took her home. The betrayal took her heart. Now, under a false name, she lives quietly as a doctor in the human world, hiding her wolf and her past behind calm hands and a steady smile. Until the day fate decides to test her silence. In the middle of the palace square, a little girl tugged at her sleeve. Her small hands were cold, her eyes too pale for someone so young. “I don’t feel good,” she whispered. Adeline knelt and gave her a piece of candy from her satchel. “Eat it slowly, sweetheart. It’ll make the hurting stop.” The girl smiled, soft and trusting…and Adeline never imagined that moment would change everything. Because the child she comforted that day wasn’t just anyone. She was the Alpha King’s daughter. When their eyes meet again, time stops. The bond they thought dead stirs back to life. The little girl clings to Adeline’s coat and calls her “Pretty Aunt.” And Vincent, the Alpha King who buried her six years ago, can only stare at the woman fate refused to erase. Two boys who look like him. One daughter who smells like her. A secret that can’t stay hidden forever. Because love may break, wolves may fall…but the bond between mates and blood always finds its way home.
