Pro Deo Et Patria

Finn shook his head and handed me an envelope. "You have to leave. Right now." "What do you mean? Leave where? I can't leave this room; Jordan said he'd drag me back here." Finn cursed, "Leave this fucking pack. Go live with the humans. Anywhere. Don't tell me where. Just leave. Life will only get worse, Izzy. Jordan is not a good guy." "But mom and dad, and you..." Finn gave me a hug, "I know it's scary, and I'm sorry. But I just know that if you stay here, one day he'll kill you. If he can do this to you in the packhouse filled with people, imagine what he'll do once it's just you and him living here. Once he's alpha, he'll get to do whatever he wants. Jordan has always hated that prophecy for some reason. I don't have time to explain, but you need to go."  - - - Izzy leaves her pack, knowing she's going against the prophecy that was given to her at birth by the oracle. One day Izzy is supposed to become the Luna, but she hates the idea of sharing a life with the future Alpha Jordan.  Izzy runs away to a human town, where she lives in a cheap motel, pretending to be human. This is where she meets Orion. They have an instant connection, but Orion has a secret of his own. He has spent years in prison and a mental hospital after having a psychosis and hearing a voice in his hand, claiming he's a werewolf.  What will happen once Orion realizes he's not crazy? And will Jordan and his pack ever stop looking for his prophesied Luna?

En tant que fille illégitime du Bêta, Layla Fournier connaissait toujours sa place dans la Meute de Sang. Elle est habituée à passer inaperçue, mais tout cela change lorsqu’elle découvre la trahison de son fiancé avec sa demi-sœur. Soudainement, Layla devient la cible d’intimidations cruelles et d’attaques vicieuses qui ont failli la tuer, jusqu’à ce que l’énigmatique Alpha de la meute, Hector, intervienne pour la sauver. Ma bouche s’est remplie de salive et s’est humidifiée, et j’ai senti l’atmosphère autour de nous devenir excitante avec une tension spéciale qui était toujours présente dans toutes nos rencontres. Comme je ne fais pas confiance dans une réponse en mots, j’ai hoché la tête en réponse à sa question et une lueur dangereuse a illuminé ses yeux, faisant se dresser les poils sur ma nuque en signe d’avertissement. « Alors prouve-le », m’a-t-il dit, et j’ai cligné des yeux. « Pardon ? » « Prouve que tu es sincère quand tu dis que tu te soumettras à chaque ordre que je te donnerai. »

One accident led to An Xin waking up in the body of her best friend. The once domineering Miss An was now suddenly the gentle Madam Ye, but this does not mean that she is without thorns. The first thing to solve, is this cold and unapproachable husband of hers that makes her pity her best friend. At the same time, perhaps squeeze a pretty penny off some hustle, and save up so she can travel. Perhaps she will find a few hunks on the way and her newfound life would not be boring at all. But wait, why is the once unapproachable husband suddenly so clingy? Good sir, I am not your wife, and marrying me is impossible. Unless...you promise to spoil me for the rest of my life, love me like nothing else, and to and over all your wealth and influence, and to be content coming home to do the chores and cook for me everyday. Perhaps then, I would sit on the couch and cheer you on!

Carissa s'était occupée de ses beaux-parents, utilisant sa dot pour améliorer le quotidien du foyer du général. Mais en retour, son mari avait cherché à se marier avec une autre générale, car selon lui, seuls ses mérites, ses exploits militaires et ses rêves pouvaient être compris par cette autre générale. Cet homme, Amance Warren, à qui elle avait consacré presque toute sa vie ainsi qu'à sa famille, la raillait : « Carissa, c'est grâce à Aurora et moi, grâce à notre bravoure face à de féroces ennemis, que tu as un train de vie aussi extravagant. Tu le réalises, ça ? Tu ne seras jamais aussi noble et admirable qu'Aurora. Tu ne fais que jouer des tours mesquins : des insinuations perfides, des calomnies doucereuses, des médisances déguisées en éloges et des dissimulations naïves, passant toute la journée à bavarder avec une bande de commères. » Carissa Sinclair, silencieuse face aux paroles déchirantes de cet homme, a quitté la maison. Le champ de bataille … Il avait raison. Elle avait presque oublié sa vie militaire, submergée par les bagatelles domestiques, se perdant elle-même. Après tout, elle venait d'une famille militaire. Elle était aussi une générale. Le fait qu'elle préparait les repas et faisait le ménage pour son mari ne signifiait pas qu'elle avait perdu son talent pour manier une lance !
