Raison D'être

They said no one defies the Alpha of the Phoenix Pack and lives to tell the tale. They were wrong. When Cullen Blackthorne, the ruthless Alpha feared across every border, storms the Silver Moon Pack, he expects surrender— not her. Séraphine Vale. A curvy, sharp-tongued beauty hidden behind a lace mask, the last surviving daughter of the Silver Moon’s traitorous line. He should have killed her. Instead, he claimed her. Now, she’s trapped in his territory—his captive, his obsession, and his downfall. But Séraphine isn’t the innocent mistress everyone thinks she is. She’s playing a dangerous game of her own—one that could burn the Phoenix Pack to ashes from the inside. In a world ruled by dominance and blood, passion becomes their greatest weakness. And when love tastes like revenge, who will surrender first—the Alpha or his Mistress?

Dati niyang asawa, hindi lang siya tinalikuran—pinapatay pa. Sa isang gabi ng pagtataksil, muntik nang mamatay si Alina sa kamay ng mga tauhan ng lalaking minsan niyang minahal. Pero sa isang iglap, isang maling liko, at isang desperadong hakbang, napadpad siya sa sasakyan ng pinaka-ayaw ng ex niyang lalaki... si Damian Velasco, ang pinakamalupit na karibal sa negosyo. "Hirap ka bang magpasalamat, Mrs. Montenegro?" malademonyong bulong ng lalaki. "O gusto mong ipakita na lang sa ibang paraan?" Isang kasunduan ang binuo sa init ng gabi: ililigtas siya ni Damian, pero kapalit nito… magiging kanya siya. Sa kama. Sa piling niya. Hanggang sa tuluyan niyang makuha ang kanyang paghihiganti. Pero paano kung sa gitna ng pagkukunwari, may ibang apoy na mamagitan sa kanila? Isa bang laban ito… o isang bagong simula?

Mon fiancé était le meilleur guérisseur de la meute. Son premier amour était aussi sa petite demi-sœur. Elle s'était autrefois interposée pour le sauver d'une flèche d'argent mortelle. Aujourd'hui, la maladie refait surface : elle est atteinte d'un empoisonnement incurable à l'argent et il ne lui reste plus que 21 jours à vivre. Pour l'accompagner jusqu'au bout, il a discrètement injecté dans mon eau un nouveau sérum de blocage de la mémoire qu'il venait de mettre au point, effaçant de force tous les souvenirs que j'avais de notre relation. Il m'a dit : « Ce ne sont que 21 jours. Quand elle sera partie, je te donnerai l'antidote de mes propres mains, et tu te souviendras de moi. » Durant ces 21 jours, il lui a organisé une grande cérémonie, a dansé avec elle le soir de la Fête de la Lune, et l'a laissée partir en lui jurant : « Dans une autre vie, je serai encore ton compagnon. » 21 jours plus tard, les effets du sérum ont disparu. Il s'est agenouillé sous la pluie, les larmes mêlées de sang, et m'a demandé d'une voix brisée : « Le sérum ne dure que 21 jours… Pourquoi m'as-tu oublié pour toujours ? » Je l'ai seulement regardé avec froideur et j'ai répondu : « Désolée. Vous êtes ? »

As I grit my teeth and buy the last box of discounted shrimp, a young woman dressed head to toe in designer brands is picking out imported seafood beside me. She glances at me and casually drops a king crab into my cart. "It's the holidays. Treat yourself better," she says with a carefree smile. "I'll pay for everything you buy today." I am shocked when I see the five-figure price tag. I quickly try to decline her by waving my hands frantically. She pulls out a black card and shrugs. "It's fine. My sugar daddy gives me more money than I can spend. If I don't use it, he'll get mad." I force a laugh. "Sounds like he's really generous to you." "He's alright, I guess. I can't spend money as fast as he earns it," she says nonchalantly. After a slight pause, she goes on, "Speaking of which, his girlfriend is pretty dumb. She works nonstop for years just to help him pay off a debt that doesn't even exist. When I say I want him to cook on New Year's Eve, he immediately ditches his girlfriend to come be with me." I freeze for a moment. My boyfriend, Eric Sterling, is in debt. Just as I am thinking it can't be that much of a coincidence, my phone buzzes with a message from Eric. He texts, "Anne, the company assigned me to an extra shift tonight. I get triple the pay. Buy yourself something nice to eat. I'll be home tomorrow."
