Roses And Champagne Ch 82 Novels & Stories

The room reeked of spilled champagne and poor decisions. Siena Blake blinked against the harsh morning light slicing through velvet curtains, her body aching in places she didn’t want to think about. She wasn’t in her bed. She wasn’t even in her house. And the man lying beside her—a stranger with a dangerously perfect face—was the proof. It was supposed to be her bachelorette party. One night of wild abandon with her friends before tying the knot with the man she’d loved since childhood. Instead, she had woken up in the arms of someone else, with no memory of how she got there. But that wasn’t the worst part. The worst came later—when she found police outside her house, her father being dragged away in handcuffs, and her fiancé, Zane, sending her a venom-laced message: “You’re a whore, Siena. Return the ring or I’ll leak the footage.” Within hours, her life was in ruins. Her family disgraced. Her heart shattered. And the man from that night? Lucian Voss—the most feared CEO in the country—stood behind it all, either by fate or by design. What started as an accident would become her obsession. Because five years later, she’s coming back… With a secret child. A mission for revenge. And a dangerous deal with the devil who unknowingly fathered her baby.

At the pack's anniversary dinner party, the Alpha, Matt White, told us to write down the gifts we wanted. He would make sure every request was fulfilled. When it was my turn, the newly arrived intern suddenly snatched the paper and pen out of my hands. "Mr. White works so hard managing the pack. We can't let him spend money on us! You shouldn't write down your dream gift," she said. I ignored her, grabbed the list back, and calmly wrote down one item: a washing machine. Peyton immediately flew into a rage and splashed the champagne on the table straight onto me. "I told you not to write anything down! As a Beta, how can you be so inconsiderate of Mr. White?" My coat was completely soaked, and I looked utterly disheveled. I couldn't hold back my anger anymore. I flung the list straight at her face without mercy. She instantly covered her face and screamed, "How dare you hit me! Do you know who my father is? He's the Alpha King! Even Mr. White has to be polite to him. I'll have you kicked out of the pack for laying a hand on me!" I froze. I was the Alpha King's biological niece. My uncle didn't even have a partner, so how would he have a grown daughter?

The first thing the fake heiress did when she saw me was imitate me. I loved fishtail dresses. Hence, she immediately bought all the fishtail dresses in the city. I loved roses. Thus, she made the entire rose garden hers. I thought she was only jealous that my family had brought me home. Unexpectedly, my elder brother mistook her for me when he saw her from the back when she was wearing a fishtail dress. He gave me forty-nine lashes as punishment that night.

It did not occur to me that I would return to the moment when she had just purchased the fishtail dresses.

"You're a dangerous woman, Elena," He reached, turning on the shower beside her head.

La veille de mon mariage, j’ai découvert mon fiancé au lit avec ma cousine — et cette nuit-là, j’ai couché avec son patron ! Tout a commencé comme une journée ordinaire. Il était dix heures du soir, et je me rendais discrètement dans notre maison pour récupérer mon voile de mariée. Mais en passant devant la porte entrouverte de la chambre, des gémissements m’ont glacée. Poussée par une curiosité malsaine, j’ai ouvert la porte. L’horreur ! Ma cousine Courtney, nue, chevauchait Perry, mon fiancé. « Chéri, tu vas épouser Irène demain et tu couches encore avec moi, tu ne te sens pas coupable ? » « Coupable ? Pourquoi ? On le fait tous les jours. Elle ne saura rien. » Courtney se redresse, pointe la porte et me désigne, un sourire ironique sur les lèvres : « Chéri, ta fiancée est là. » Le choc. Perry, déstabilisé, panique, tandis que Courtney, souriante, se lève et me confie, sans gêne : « Trois ans qu’on est ensemble. » La trahison se dévoile sous mes yeux. L’inimaginable se confirme. Furieuse, je tente de gifler ma cousine, mais Perry, dans un élan de protection pour sa maîtresse, me repousse violemment au sol. La haine m'envahit. Je hurle : « Perry… je te hais ! » Brisée, je m’enfuis, mon cœur éclaté. Ce soir-là, tout s’effondre. Au bar, l’alcool m’étouffe alors que je me noie dans ma souffrance. Un regard froid me capte alors. Nathan, le patron de Perry. Il est là, solitaire, au comptoir. L’alcool me rend audacieuse. Je m’approche de lui, le cœur lourd, et murmure : « Passe la nuit avec moi. » Lui, choqué mais intrigué, me répond : « Quoi ? » Je le provoque : « Ou bien… tu ne peux pas ? » Un défi. Il ne supporte pas qu’on le traite de faible. En un instant, son regard se glace et il me dit : « J’espère que tu ne regretteras pas. »

"Don't dream of belonging to anyone else. Your breath, your heartbeat, your body - they are mine, and I will take you by force, no matter what. I am Asher Martin, and I will make you my Luna." Tears streamed down Sage Holton's face as her life and circumstances changed in an instant, turning to ashes as Asher came to claim her by force and make her his forever. --- There was a beautiful scent clinging to me, like marmalade, roses, and honeyed strawberries. I didn’t know why, but suddenly my wolf spoke, saying, "Mate." I responded in shock, "Mate!" Of course, I nearly went mad. I am an Alpha Gamma with hybrid blood, and that little girl is of pure lineage. Even though I don't accept the laws of the Moon Goddess, I know that one of her laws is that mates must be of the same pure lineage, though it is possible to marry and love someone from another lineage. I kept pacing around, and then I remembered—I had thrown her out, naked! I looked out the window at the sky; it was raining heavily, it was late, and I had cast her out. I shouldn't have gone near her, but what happened, happened.
