Raison D Etre

De dix à dix-huit ans, mes parents m'ont fait signer deux cent quatre-vingt-dix-neuf reconnaissances de dette. Chaque somme que je leur ai demandée, j'ai dû l'emprunter et je devais les rembourser une fois que je serais adulte. Puis j'ai eu un accident de voiture. Quand il a fallu payer les frais de chirurgie, il manquait encore trois mille euros sur mon compte. À bout de ressources, je n'ai eu d'autre choix que de supplier mes parents. Mais ils ont juste eu un rire froid : « Manon Besson, tu as déjà dix-huit ans, nous n'avons plus l'obligation de te donner de l'argent ! Tu dois signer une autre reconnaissance de dette ! » Les larmes aux yeux, j'ai signé la trois-centième reconnaissance de dette. Après l'opération, cependant, j'ai vu les photos que ma sœur adoptive avait publiées sur Instagram. Sur les photos, elle fêtait ses dix-huit ans sur un paquebot à l'étranger, entourée de personnes, comme une petite princesse. Mes parents lui ont offert un luxueux appartement dans le centre de Paris et les clés d'une Maserati. Même mon ami d'enfance la regardait avec des yeux pleins d'amour. Elle a écrit : « Merci à ceux que j'aime le plus pour ce bonheur parfait. » Et moi, j'ai baissé les yeux vers la reconnaissance de dette froissée dans ma main et j'ai soudain souri. Après avoir remboursé les dettes, je n'aurais plus besoin d'une telle famille.

"Why can’t you just leave me alone?" Valentina snarled, breath hitching as she shoved against the bark of the tree behind her. He stepped closer, eyes glowing with an untamed hunger. In one swift, possessive motion, he pinned her hands above her head, his lips grazing the pulse at her neck—dangerously close to the spot only a mate should touch. “Because, little wolf,” he whispered, his voice dark velvet against her skin, “you belong to me—and I’m done pretending otherwise.” _______ Stabbed by the man she once loved and betrayed by the friend she trusted most, Valentina was reborn in the ashes of heartbreak. No longer the obedient luna of the Shadow Crust pack, she rises from the shadows to reclaim her life—and her power. But home is no longer safe. Her pack is in ruins. Her father?

Because waiting for her in the heart of the storm is the man she should never desire—Andres Donovan, the cold and dangerously obsessive Lycan King… and her second-chance mate. He watches her with eyes full of secrets, speaks in riddles that echo of a past she can’t remember, and touches her like he’s been starving for centuries. But as enemies close in, alliances fracture, and war brews over the divine blood flowing in her veins, Valentina must decide: Will she fight fate again… Or surrender to the one man who could ruin her—or save her?

Out on a holiday with my boyfriend, Jack, and my good friend, Eva, a catastrophe occurred. As the floods came, we waited for the rescue helicopter to come. As I fastened the safety rope, I noticed that my metal safety clip had been swapped for a plastic ring. Climbing up the rope ladder, Jack said nonchalantly, "Eva's luggage is heavy. She needs another safety clip, so I gave her yours. You can wait for the next rescue." I replied in a panic, pointing at the water level already past my chest, "But I can't swim!" Jack replied irritatedly, "Naomi, stop causing a scene! You're a strong swimmer, what's a little time in the water? Eva is my boss's relative. If something happens to her, my promotion is gone. Why can't you understand that?" "Which matters more? My life or her luggage?" I reached for the rope ladder when he kicked my hand away. "I've studied the waters. The flood won't rise so quickly. It will at most be at the level of your neck. You won't die!" I said nothing further. Watching the floods rise crazily, I quickly pressed my family's special alarm on my wrist.
