Re Zero If Gluttony

There's literally no one that you can love more than your childhood best friend. You shared baths, ice cream, lunches, everything together and even a bed at times, even when it was in secrecy. Feyi and Ayo didn't have it any different, but they'd been separated for a really long time, so what really changes after that? What happens when you're just...split into North and South with no explanation. And now you're back together, gathering butterflies in your stomach and teasing with small touches, glances and nicknames.

It was the first night we spent together as a married couple. When my husband insisted that the hotel manager clean our bed for us, she cried and said to him, "You're asking me to clean up after the two of you made love! How heartbroken do you want me to be before you're finally satisfied?" My husband claimed not to know that the manager was his ex-girlfriend, but when the woman threw a kettle of hot water and left, he chased after her instead of coming to my aid.

“I can’t let go of you, Mia. You’re my addiction, and I’m not ready to let go of my addiction.” Josh lowers his face, his lips barely brushing Mia’s, as his hands roam her body. “But…but we’re…we’re siblings…everyone will judge us, they…won’t understand..” Mia stutters, pleasure hitting her in every part where Josh’s hands land. “I don’t care about the world, Mia. As long as we’re together, nobody else matters.” He states and closes his lips on hers. ***** Mia was smitten by her brother the minute she set her eyes on him, and she couldn’t understand why him, out of all the men in the world. They soon started a forbidden relationship, that is, until a guy who was practically “obsessed” with her kept trying to do everything within his capacity to separate them. Will Mia end whatever is going on between them? Will Josh let go of her? Will the “villain” succeed in ending their forbidden love story? Find out in this book of love, hate, forbidden relationship, obsession and so on… ***** “You belong to me, and only me. No one is allowed to know how you taste and how you feel, no one is allowed to hear you moan. Anyone who tries to take you away from me will breathe his last.” He tells her and inserts himself into her, earning only a loud moan as her response.

Mon père et mon frère avaient toujours aimé ma sœur aînée, et m'avaient toujours détestée. Lors d'un gala, alors que j'étais humiliée en public, c'est Gabriel Dumas, le chef de la mafia, qui était intervenu pour me défendre. Il avait même annoncé devant tout le monde que j'étais la femme qu'il aimait le plus. Gabriel m'avait acheté un château au cœur de la forêt, où il avait fait planter des tulipes, mes fleurs préférées. Il y avait organisé un mariage féerique, si grandiose qu'il avait fait la une dans tout le pays. Du jour au lendemain, j'étais devenue l'objet de l'envie de toutes les femmes. À sept mois de grossesse, j'avais assisté à la fête d'anniversaire de mon père. Ce soir-là, un incendie avait éclaté. Mon père et mon frère, aveuglés par leur favoritisme, avaient protégé ma sœur et l'avaient aidée à fuir. Moi, j'avais failli mourir dans les flammes. C'était encore Gabriel qui m'avait sauvée. Mais quand je m'étais réveillée à l'hôpital, ce que j'avais vu m'avait brisé le cœur. « Qui vous a autorisés à provoquer cet incendie ! » avait lancé Gabriel, le visage sombre. « Elle n'en est qu'à son septième mois de grossesse ! Vous vouliez provoquer un accouchement prématuré ? Vous essayiez de tuer Yvonne et son bébé, c'est ça ? » Mon frère et mon père avaient murmuré une justification : « La leucémie de Sylvie ne peut plus attendre. Le médecin a dit qu'il fallait opérer au plus vite… On a besoin de la moelle osseuse du bébé… » « Je suis plus inquiet que vous pour la vie de Sylvie. Sinon, je n'aurais jamais épousé Yvonne ! » « Mais vous n'avez pas le droit de lui faire du mal. J'ai mon propre plan », avait-il averti d'un ton glacial. Je m'étais enfuie, paniquée. Alors, il ne m'avait jamais épousée par amour. Tout ce qu'il avait fait pour moi, en réalité pour ma sœur. Comme mon père et mon frère, lui aussi ne l'aimait qu'elle, et pas moi. Puisque personne ne m'aimait… alors je partirais.

Three years after our breakup, I ran into my ex-girlfriend, and she had her new boyfriend by her side. "Hey, isn't that Henry the expert?" Diego Stanley taunted with a smirk. "Three years post-breakup, and you're slumming it here playing with clay?" I furrowed my brow, ignored them, and carefully moved the Victorian-era porcelain musician figurine onto its preset base in the display case. When I wasn't biting, he reached out to grab the figurine from my arms. "What's this junk you're treating like gold? Let me take a look." Cynthia Wyatt frowned, her voice laced with that familiar arrogance. "Henry, I've given you three years to shape up, and you're still the same loser? Come on, hand over that clay doll to Diego. Don't kill the vibe. If you play nice, I might even reconsider our old engagement." As Diego's hand neared the figurine, I dodged quickly and barked, "Hands off! It's a historical artifact!" Diego got pissed off and shoved me hard. "Some flea market find, and you're acting all high and mighty?" In the ensuing scuffle, I lost my balance, and the figurine slipped from my grasp, crashing to the floor. That sealed their fate. This entitled pair was about to go bankrupt trying to fix it.

"She needs me, Alyne. I've told you thousand times. Don't be selfish!" The boy's hand reached the girl's hand in front of him. "We're both struggling, Alyne," the boy continued, trying to soften his voice. The girl nodded harshly causing the tears that welled up in her eyes to fall. "Yeah, Herrin. We're both struggling." "I struggled desperately to beat my ego to maintain our relationship. And you ..." "You struggled desperately to win over your ego to end our relationship."

My grandmother only knows how to draw one thing—infants. They're ugly, but people line up to buy the paintings. I watch as she takes those women into unlit rooms. Then, their bloodcurdling screams will ring out. Oddly enough, they always thank my grandmother when they're leaving. One day, I finally find out what exactly my grandmother paints. I discover the truth when I see an infant crawl out of one of the women's bellies—it looks just like the one my grandmother has painted.

Love is a beautiful feeling. It's uncontrollable, gentle, satisfying and worth living up for. It is crazy when you fall for someone you shouldn’t have, especially when you’re already engaged to someone. True love? Friendship? Likeness? Crush? All of these leave you in awe when you get stuck between two people. When mistakenly you commit your life to a wrong person and fall for the right one, you’re left in a fix and the only thing left to do is leave it to fate.

“You're a parasite,” he growled. “Preying on my good name, my pack...my life.” “I... I didn't ask for this,” I whispered, the words catching in my throat. “You think I believe that?” he snarled, his eyes blazing. “You played your part perfectly to get in here. You've had your chance. Now you're mine, and I'll find out what you're hiding.” **** Adeline's life is a cycle of torment, her every move controlled by the Alpha who despises her. When a brutal betrayal leads to a death sentence, she flees into the wild, only to be sold as a slave to the Lycan King, Alpha Dominic. A cruel twist of fate forces them into a mating ceremony, binding them as one. Dominic sees her as a fraud, but Adeline is hiding a deeper secret—one that could get her killed. As jealousy and treachery surround them, Adeline and Dominic must confront their growing feelings, an undeniable past, and a shocking revelation that will change everything.

My mom had a sudden heart attack, and the medical bills were piling up faster than I could breathe. I was desperate, so I turned to my rich boyfriend, hoping he could help, or at least offer some kind of solution. But instead of the support I expected, he unleashed a tirade that hit harder than anything I'd ever heard. "So this is why you're with me? Just for my money? You're no different from those other women throwing themselves at me. You're all the same—pathetic and shameless!" Before I could even react, he shoved me out the door. Later, when he finally understood the full story, he handed me a bank card, no questions asked. "Candice," he said quietly, his tone almost remorseful. "The password is your birthday." I didn't say a word. I just let the card drop onto the floor and walked away without looking back.
