Richard Sterling Empire

À quarante ans, Reine pense avoir trouvé la sérénité en épousant Richard, un homme doux et attentionné de vingt ans son aîné. Mais cette tranquillité est mise à mal lorsque Gabriel, le fils de Richard, débarque pour passer l'été sous leur toit. Gabriel, vingt-cinq ans, est tout ce que Reine exècre : arrogant, cynique, et il ne lui adresse que des regards glacés et des piques assassines. Il lui reproche d'avoir épousé son père pour son argent et voit en elle une opportuniste. La tension entre eux est palpable, un mélange explosif de mépris et d'une attraction indéniable qu'ils luttent farouchement de dissimuler. Tout bascule lors d'un orage violent, alors que Richard est absent. Une dispute particulièrement violente les laisse seuls, trempés et frémissants de rage. Les insultes cèdent soudain la place à un silence lourd, puis à un baiser sauvage et libérateur. Ce premier contact est l'antichambre d'une passion dévorante et interdite. Ils se retrouvent en secret, transformant leur haine en un désir brut et obsessionnel. Les combats d'arguments deviennent des joutes sensuelles, chaque réconciliation est célébrée sur les draps froissés de l'alcôve la plus proche. Ils explorent leurs corps et leurs limites, découvrant que sous la rancœur se cache une complicité inattendue et une vulnérabilité partagée. Mais l'ombre de Richard plane sur leur liaison. Chaque mensonge pèse lourd sur la conscience de Reine, déchirée entre son affection pour son mari et sa passion déraisonnée pour Gabriel. Ce dernier, quant à lui, doit affronter son propre ressentiment envers son père et les sentiments complexes qui le lient à la femme qu'il était censé haïr. Leur histoire peut-elle survivre à la trahison et au poids du secret, ou n'était-elle qu'un feu de paille, condamné à se consumer dans la culpabilité ?

"You like that?" he whispered, taking my earlobe in his mouth, and my lips parted. My breath came in short bursts, and everything blurred at the feel of his tongue on my index and middle fingers. He began sucking on them while his left hand slipped under my shirt, and a loud moan escaped me. My back arched of its own accord as his fingers began to rub circles around my rock-hard nipples, teasing them and another puddle moistened the already damp surface as my legs took on a life of their own and spread wider. ……. Scarlett Ford was a young woman from a humble background who found herself in the midst of luxury when she was taken in by the wealthy and powerful Sterling family. As she became more entrenched in their glamorous lifestyle, she fell in love with Reed, the eldest son of the family. However, Scarlett's mother, who was a chief maid in the Sterling household, warned her against pursuing the relationship, knowing that the matriarch, Colette de Beauvoir, would never approve of a romance between her son and a maid's daughter. Colette was a powerful woman who firmly believed in the social hierarchy that separated the wealthy from the poor. Despite her mother's warnings, Scarlett was determined to be with Reed and was blind to Colette's prejudices. As Reed took over his father's position as head of the family, the stakes became even higher. Would Scarlett be able to change Colette's narrow-minded views, or would everything fall apart?

My husband, Samuel Sterling, is the Capo of the Sterling family, a mafia family based on the West Coast. Instead of getting revenge on the Wood family, he comes home and forces me onto an operating table. "Daeleen says she loved your eyes. That was her dying wish, and I will make it come true." I clutch my stomach and grovel at his feet. I beg him to let me off the hook. I've yet to witness our child's birth—I can't lose my eyes! However, Samuel thinks I'm using my pregnancy as an excuse to not give up my eyes. "You can't be so selfish, Louise. You'll only be losing your eyes—you'll be fine." Daeleen is the only one who holds his heart. I am left with nothing but a world of darkness. Later, I drag my broken body into the sea. I forge ahead until I'm submerged. That's when Samuel goes insane.
