Following a heartbreak from my betrothed and the man I have loved all of my life, I leave my home and family behind, seeking solace in the Realm of the Humans. Having no qualifications to live in a world bound by stupid rules has me jumping at an absurdly good offer to be the personal assistant to a top class business man. And my first assignment is delivering his forgotten wedding rings to the event. I found my mate. My boss, standing at the altar, exchanging vows with a puny human woman I could break in half if I wanted to. I flee, fingers clutching the damned ring boxes. He leaves his fiancée at the altar, chasing after me, but it makes no difference to me. I have had my fair share of rejections and I can't take anymore of it. So, I reject him, before he can do the same to me. But rather than cower in pain, he cracks a grin that makes my stony heart stumble, and leans forward, several feet taller than me. "And you're fired."

"You, my dear, will be going to help us to decide that. You will pick a king." "Say what now?" "I'm not going to repeat it since I know that you have heard me." "Fine! You want me to decide?! Nate!" I pointed to prince Nathaniel, if I remember correctly. He was slightly taken aback and a confused expression was replaced. "Do you want to be a king?" "I...uh...Yes?" He said. Unsure of his answer. It made me wonder if the expression on my face had forced him to say yes. "Good. Then you'll be the king. "What!? But that's not how you decide it!" PRINCE Ace said. "Fine! You're all kings. In fact, we ALL can be kings!!" **** She's Rosalie Amber Stan.

They had been married for three years, yet he treated her like dirt while he gave Lilith all of his love. He neglected and mistreated her, and their marriage was like a cage. Zoe bore with all of it because she loved Mason deeply! That was, until that night. It was a downpour and he abandoned his pregnant wife to spend time with Lilith. Zoe, on the other hand, had to crawl her way to the phone to contact an ambulance while blood was flowing down her feet. She realized it at last. You can’t force someone to love you. Zoe drafted a divorce agreement and left quietly. … Two years later, Zoe was back with a bang. Countless men wanted to win her heart. Her scummy ex-husband said, “I didn’t sign the agreement, Zoe! I’m not going to let you be with another man!” Zoe smiled nonchalantly, “It’s over between us, Mason!” His eyes reddened when he recited their wedding vows with a trembling voice, “Mason and Zoe will be together forever, in sickness or health. I refuse to divorce!”

The worst mistake he made was leaving in the first place and the second mistake he made was distrusting her. Maybe he didn't deserve her, maybe he did but all he wants in this life and the next is Amber by his side. With his imperfections and her perfections. 'I need you to stop kissing me.'

Il y a un mois, j'ai été accidentellement infectée par le poison mortel de l'aconit, sans aucun espoir de guérison. Mon corps a commencé à se dégrader jour après jour, jusqu'à aujourd'hui, où ma louve a été tuée définitivement, et ma vie est entrée dans un compte à rebours de trois jours. La veille de ma mort, j'ai accepté de transplanter mon rein à ma sœur. Mon compagnon, très ravi, a dit qu'il me compenserait plus tard. Quand ma sœur a été accusée de plagiat sur le forum de l'université pour avoir copié mon article de recherche sur la portion de Belladonna, j'ai volontairement admis que j'étais le plagiaire. Mes parents étaient satisfaits, disant que j'avais enfin compris comment me comporter. Je suis enfin devenue la bonne épouse et la bonne fille idéale qu'ils attendaient. Néanmoins, quand je suis devenue un cadavre glacé, pourquoi ont-ils tous pleuré ?

Thalina est née sous une lune maudite. La prophétie annonçait que son enfant serait le plus puissant né depuis un siècle, un don de la déesse de la lune elle-même. Mais elle n'a jamais précisé qui en serait le père. Utilisée, Bettayée et Bannie. À dix-huit ans, Thalina fut contrainte à une cérémonie d'accouplement avec Aloha Kael, un homme qui ne l'aimait pas, mais désirait ardemment l'enfant que son ventre pouvait porter. Ce que personne ne savait, c'est que, la nuit de la cérémonie, un étranger la toucha en premier. Un homme enveloppé d'ombre et de feu. Un homme qu'elle n'avait vu que trois fois, toujours dans des moments de danger… Et cette nuit-là, il la marqua avant que Kael ne puisse le faire. Maintenant, elle porte son enfant. Et personne, pas même le père de l'enfant, ne connaît la vérité. Après avoir été humiliée, trahie et abandonnée à la ruine, Thalina échappe à sa meute et est à nouveau sauvée par le même homme, mais cette fois…

I buried him myself. I stood at his grave with dirt on my hands and grief in my throat as I said goodbye to the only man I ever thought I would love. Kael was my betrothed, my mate, the boy who grew up beside me and became the person I built every future around. When the war took him it did not just take him — it took every version of myself that existed because of him. Years passed. The moon goddess, in her mercy, gave me something I never asked for — a second chance. Rowan was not supposed to happen. He was patient where I was resistant, steady where I was broken, and present in every way I had convinced myself no one would ever be again. I did not want to love him. And then I did not know how to stop. I was finally learning what it meant to choose life again. When Kael walked back through my door. Alive. Unchanged. And completely unable to explain where he had been. Now I am torn between a love that was written into my soul before I was old enough to understand what souls were, and a man who chose me quietly and completely when I had nothing left to offer. The elders say this is not a reverse harem blessing. There is no keeping both. I have to choose. But how do you bury someone you love twice?

Alexandra mène une existence scindée en deux mondes que tout oppose. À l’université, elle a goûté à la lumière avec Marie, une passion solaire, tendre et libératrice qui lui a ouvert les portes d’une vie choisie. Mais le retour au pays sonne l’heure des comptes. Dans cette société conservatrice où les silences sont des lois, Alexandra retrouve Claudine, son amie d’enfance, son miroir sombre, celle avec qui elle a scellé un pacte charnel bien avant de connaître le sens du mot "trahison". Claudine n’est plus la jeune fille d’autrefois. Devenue une psychologue à l’intuition chirurgicale, elle lit dans les hésitations d’Alexandra comme dans un livre ouvert. Elle sent l'odeur d'une autre sur sa peau, elle devine les secrets cachés derrière ses sourires forcés. Pour Claudine, l’amour n’est pas un partage, c’est une conquête. Elle n’accepte pas la défaite. Prise au piège de sa propre culpabilité, Alexandra s'enfonce dans un double jeu dangereux. Elle tente d'apaiser la bête en se soumettant aux désirs de Claudine, acceptant de s'isoler avec elle dans un chalet loin du monde. Là, entre les murs de bois, Claudine déploie son arsenal : une domination psychologique impitoyable mêlée à une exploration érotique sophistiquée, utilisant des matériaux sexuels pour marquer le corps d'Alexandra et effacer, par le plaisir et la force, le souvenir de Marie. C’est un huis clos étouffant où chaque étreinte est un champ de bataille. Alexandra pourra-t-elle feindre la loyauté assez longtemps pour s'échapper ? Ou finira-t-elle par se perdre définitivement dans l’emprise exotique et toxique d’une femme qui connaît ses zones d’ombre mieux qu’elle-même ? Entre la douceur d'un avenir possible et l'addiction d'un passé qui refuse de mourir, le choix d'Alexandra pourrait bien la briser.

After finishing work for the day, I checked my phone and realized I had been added to a group chat called "Catch the Thief." The members were my parents, my brother, Brian Wise, and my sister-in-law, Paulene Wise. I typed a question mark. Paulene replied instantly. [My jewelry is missing. I didn't add you here to accuse you or anything. I just wanted to ask what you think. Honestly, there's no use for other people in our family to take my jewelry, so I've been wondering... I'm not saying you definitely stole it. But if you did, you don't have to deny it. I'm willing to give you a chance to make things right.] My mother said nothing. She just kept tagging me over and over. I let out a small laugh and typed back. [Maybe Brian took it and gave it to his side piece. I'm not saying he definitely has someone else. Just that men his age sometimes start looking around. I'm only guessing here. And if he really did mess up, you could give him a chance to make things right, too.]
