Round Table Arthur

Lumaking mabait, masipag at masunuring anak si Anna. Kahit na salat sa buhay ay masaya ang kanyang pamilya pero nag bagong lahat yon nang mamatay ang kanyang ama. Nalubog sila sa utang at naging malamig ang naging pakikitungo sa kanya ng ina. Sa resort sa kanilang lugar ay namasukan si Anna. Nakilala nya rito si Arthur Bryce na unang kita nya pa lamang ay nagustuhan nya na ang binata. Isang secret Agent si Arthur sa isang patagong organisasyon na ang layunin ay sugpuin ang mga masasamang organisasyon. Lingid sa kaalaman ng dalaga na kaya lamang lumalapit sa kanya ang binata ay dahil kumakalap lamang ito ng impormasyon sa kanilang lugar. Unti-unting nahulog ang loob ni Anna rito pero mukhang 'di mutual ang feelings nila sa isat-isa. Lalo na mukhang nagugustuhan nito ang anak ng may-ari ng resort na pinagt-trabahuhan nya. Pero hindi naging dahilan ito para kalimutan nya si Brent kundi mas gagawin nya pa ang lahat para ma gustuhan siya ng Binata.

She cannot escape him. On a blind-date, she unknowingly meets the most dangerous man to exist, and falls into his world of darkness and desire as both his mate, and his worst enemy. *** I rest both my hands against the table. "I'll go on another date with you, if you tell me one thing about yourself that no one else knows." He’s silent for a long moment, pondering my offer. Eventually he quirks his fingers at me. "Lean closer." Bracing myself against the table, I lean over it toward him, noting every detail about his face as I get closer. Every hair, every freckle. His beautiful is unimaginable. His breath warms my skin, dancing over my ear as I dip my head toward him. Will he kiss me, and make good on my sinful thoughts? His voice is like an erotic caress as he murmurs in my ear, "I'm a murderer."

Sa mismong araw ng kanilang kasal, imbes na sa harap ng altar, ay sa presinto dinala ng kanyang mapapangasawa si Irene Casareo upang pagbintangan sa isang kasalanang hindi niya ginawa. Doon din niya nalaman ang pagta-traydor nito sa kanya kasama ang stepsister nito. Baon ang galit at poot, ay tatlong taon niyang tiniis ang pagdurusa sa loob ng kulungan. Sa kanyang paglaya, hindi pa man siya nagtatagal sa labas, ay nasuong na siya sa isang madugong engkwentro. Doon niya nakilala si Kristoff Montecillo; isang makapangyarihang lalaki mula sa underworld, at tiyuhin ng ex-fiancee niyang si Dave Montecillo. Niligtas siya nito mula sa mga armadong lalaki, at bilang kabayaran ay niyanig nito ang mundo niya sa pamamagitan ng isang halik. Ang lalaki rin ang naging daan kung bakit nailigtas ang puri niya mula sa matandang huklubang nais kumuha ng kanyang pagkabirhen. Ngayong may utang na loob na siya kay Kristoff, papayag ba siyang maging fiancee nito kapalit ng ilang ulit na pagliligtas nito sa kanya? O, papayag siya upang gamitin ito sa paghihiganti sa mga taong nakapanakit sa kanya?

The day before the final round of Beta selection, I was poisoned with wolfsbane and locked inside my burning house. The fire spread too fast, and my weakened state prevented me from shifting. My wolf, Emma, screamed in my mind, but I couldn't escape. I clawed at the door as the flames seared my skin. When I was rescued, my body was covered in burns, my skin raw and torn. Outside the operating room, I heard my mother sobbing, repeating, “It’s my fault... I locked the door by accident... I never meant to...” Alpha David, my mate, called for every healer to restore me, but his cold words to my mother were chilling: “If Serina wasn’t so vain and selfish, I wouldn’t have had to do this. Becky was fragile, struggling with depression, yet Serina flaunted her success in front of her. This is what Serina owes her.” David’s actions were meant to pave the way for Becky to become Beta, but I was the one who suffered. He claimed to be treating me well, but destroying my health and future didn’t feel like care. I pressed my hand to my bandaged chest, the numbness spreading. Emma growled inside me, weakened by the wolfsbane. I no longer wanted the love of the mother who betrayed me or the mate who was supposed to protect me. I wanted nothing from them anymore.

My parents, the wealthiest couple in the country, were famous philanthropists. I had to ask them for permission if I wanted to spend more than five bucks. The day I was diagnosed with terminal cancer, I asked them for 100 dollars, but instead of helping, they yelled at me for three hours. "What kind of disease could you get at your age? If you're going to ask for money, at least come up with a better excuse." "Do you know that 100 dollars could support children in poverty-stricken areas for a long time? Your sister is more sensible than you." I dragged my sick body for miles, back to the small basement I called home. But as I passed the mall, I saw my parents, live on a huge screen, spending a fortune to rent out Disneyland for my sister. I couldn't hold back the tears anymore. A hundred dollars wouldn't even cover one round of chemotherapy. I just wanted to buy a new outfit and leave with some dignity.

Ma meilleure amie, Ada, avait pitié de mes huit années de crush pour Théo. Alors, lorsque nos loups se sont reconnus comme compagnons, Ada m'a simplement donné une herbe qui amplifie les phéromones et m'a envoyée dans le lit de Théo. Enivré par mon odeur, Théo m'a prise comme un fou. Quand je me suis réveillée, il a accepté froidement d'organiser la cérémonie de marquage. Mais peu après, Théo s'est mis à visiter souvent les meutes européennes et est resté absent pendant cinq ans. J'ai élevé seule notre fils, Alex, en l'attendant dans la meute. Mais il n'est jamais rentré, se contentant de me dire qu'il n'aimait pas les louveteaux. Jusqu'au jour de l'anniversaire d'Alex. J'ai vu une vidéo dans laquelle quelqu'un demandait à Théo : « Quel a été ton moment le plus heureux ? » Il a répondu avec désinvolture : « La semaine dernière, en Europe. Après avoir endormi Marcus, j'ai emmené Claire sur la table de la salle à manger. » Au milieu des sifflements et des rires, j'ai senti mes mains et mes pieds devenir glacés. Claire, c'était son ex-petite amie. Marcus, c'était le fils de Claire. On disait qu'il vivait avec eux depuis cinq ans, en Europe. Tout était donc vrai. Le cœur brisé, j'ai soumis une demande de rupture de lien d'âme au Conseil des Alphas, et j'ai quitté l'Amérique du Nord avec mon fils, effaçant notre enregistrement de meute.

"A great alpha handles pack affairs outside, and chores at home." my mate Luke had posted. I stared at these words. It was a post from my mate, Luke's Instagram. In the picture he was in a vineyard pruning grapes. Chores at home? Luke who would not even help me to clean a table was actually helping someone else. He had left this morning saying he was going on werewolf business, but from these pictures he was at a she-wolf's vineyard in our pack. A bitter smile escaped my lips as I quietly liked the post and put of my phone. Whatever was coming next, I did not know. But I knew it was over.

After four years of a loveless marriage, Eleanor is blindsided by her husband Arthur's abrupt decision to divorce her. The convenient arrangement that had suited them both had, seemingly, run its course. As Eleanor struggles to come to terms with the end of their marriage, she can't help but feel discarded - a pawn replaced by Arthur's rekindled flame, a woman from his past. But just as Eleanor is starting to rebuild her life, Arthur drops a bombshell: he wants her back. His reasons are unclear, but one thing is certain - His regret.

I'm undressed and bound to a testing table when my family comes to pick me up. A thick, sharp needle pierces into my neck. A drug is administered into my blood, and the pain almost makes me lose consciousness. Behind me, I can feel a man's cold hands stroking my skin amorously. Before me, several people are staring at me. They point at me and treat me like an educational instrument. I tremble in fear and curl up on the testing table in pain. Three years ago, my brother sent me to Mykorra's war zone to stand up for Yvette Sanders. Those were the three most insulting and torturous years of my life. They burned away my hope for kinship but not my desire for survival. As the hands roam lower on my body, I bite my lip so hard that I almost draw blood. As the hands start to go overboard, someone knocks on the door. "Wendy Sanders, your brother is here for you."

" Tell me what can I do to make it up for you?" He asks, taking a seat on the table near the bed, sounding guilty. Tho, I don't trust his words or feelings it can always change. I faced him, grinning violently as I asked, "Can you let me go?" He smiled. "Except that." I knew he will say something like that. "I don't wanna do this marriage. " He cocks his brow up in amusement before he chuckled, "I thought I made it clear when we met that you don't have any choice to make while you are here with me. " I sighed, with an annoy, he continued. "Though, if that's how I can make up then let's make a deal. " "What deal?" °^°^°^°^°^ Elina's life turns upside down when she got kidnapped by the man who appears in her nightmares who is none other than the son of ruthless Mafia, Andrew, and he, himself a rumored to be the most dangerous mafia in reality. Elina soon starts to hear and see the things she has no idea of and tries her best to know the reason behind it but she wasn't ready to find and process something more horrifying about Andrew and her's unknown past that was kept hidden by her.
