Ryder Holt

Le jour de mon mariage, mon fiancé de la mafia, Ryder Conti, a fait poster ses hommes devant l'église pour m'en interdire l'entrée. À la place, c'est lui qui a remonté l'allée, une autre femme accrochée à son bras. Il m'a adressé un haussement d'épaules à travers les lourdes grilles de fer. « Emilia, les Conti ont besoin d'un héritier, et Carmela Rossi porte un enfant. » « Une fois que j'aurai utilisé l'influence des Rossi pour consolider ma position au sein de la famille, je divorcerai. Tu resteras ma femme. » Tout le monde pensait que j'allais hocher la tête docilement et attendre son retour. Pendant dix ans, je l'avais aimé plus que ma propre vie, au point de couper les ponts avec ma famille pour lui. Cette même nuit, j'ai embarqué à bord d'un jet privé à destination de la Sicile, afin d'accepter un mariage arrangé avec le Parrain de la famille Vettori. À partir de ce moment-là, j'ai disparu sans laisser la moindre trace du monde de Ryder Conti. Trois ans plus tard, je suis revenue à Paris avec mon mari et mon enfant pour régler le compte d'un traître au sein de la Famille. Zayn avait une affaire de dernière minute à régler, alors il a envoyé ses hommes pour me récupérer. Je ne m'attendais absolument pas à revoir un visage de mon passé. Ryder m'a dévisagée avec un rictus moqueur. « Tu t'es bien amusée là-bas ? Puisque tu es revenue en rampant, c'est parfait. Le fils de Carmela a besoin d'une cuisinière. Tu feras l'affaire. » Attendez… Il venait vraiment de m'appeler, moi, la Donna la plus respectée des Enfers, une simple cuisinière ?

My mate is Ryder Blackwood, Alpha of the pack. As the approaching bonding ceremony, he tells me that his "savior", Isabelle Morrison, is dying. She took a silver dagger meant for him three years ago. Now she is terminal, and her days are numbered. Her last wish, he says, is to leave behind a pup bearing the strongest Alpha blood. I tremble. "What about me? I'm your only mate." His voice is cold, emptied of feeling. "Don't worry. I'll always be your mate." Two days later, I receive the pregnancy test results. Isabelle is five weeks along. Turns out there was never a choice. All I get is a belated notice. What he doesn't know is that I'm the one who took the silver dagger meant for him three years ago. The healer tells me I have, at most, a month to live. I neither weep nor protest. I cancel the bonding ceremony I've dreamed of and quietly book a flight out. It leaves on the very day of the ceremony. Ryder stands at the venue of the canceled ceremony when my message reaches him. It's my unwavering rejection of him as my mate. That's when he finally breaks. For the first time, the Alpha who controls everything tastes a fear that tears the soul. He searches for me frantically, only to find every trace of me erased from his world.

In the shadowy pine forests of Silvercrest, Colorado, the Moonfang and Ironclaw packs have been at each other’s throats for as long as anyone can remember. Lena Carter has grown up in the middle of that hatred and she’s had enough. She’s wild, stubborn, and dreams of running far from pack politics… until a peace summit throws her straight into the path of Adrian Holt, the cold, untouchable Alpha of Ironclaw. They should hate each other. They do hate each other. But when the mate bond snaps into place, the pull is instant and dangerous. Dragged into a deadly conspiracy, haunted by secrets, and torn between love and loyalty, Lena and Adrian’s connection is tested at every turn. With memories stolen, alliances shattered, and a prophecy hanging over them, they have two choices: destroy each other… or fight together for a future that could save or doom them all.

Timothy Holt was someone my family sponsored. He was extraordinarily gifted in mathematics, winning an international gold medal at just 17. Yet for the prom queen's sake, he was willing to give up his chance to further his studies abroad I couldn't bear to watch someone with such a brilliant future ruin his own prospects, so I handed the girl a check and sent her overseas. Later, Timothy achieved both fame and fortune. However, when my family fell into hardship, he kicked us while we were down. An accident followed, and we both died. Before his death, he said to me: if he could start over, he hoped I would show mercy and stop interfering in his life. Thus, just as he wished, in this lifetime, I chose to stay out of his business.

J’ai été laissée à l’orphelinat Sainte-Agnès à l’âge de quatre ans, sans rien d’autre qu’un nom cousu à l’intérieur de mon manteau : Reina Calloway. J’ai construit ma vie à partir de rien. Puis Damien Holt est entré dans ma vie, avec son sourire lent et ses gestes attentionnés, et pour la première fois de ma vie, j’ai pensé que peut-être Dieu avait décidé d’être bon envers moi. Nous nous sommes mariés. Je lui ai tout donné : mon corps, ma loyauté et trois années de ma vie. Puis j’ai découvert l’acte de naissance d’un petit garçon, le fils de Damien, né sept mois après notre mariage. Et la mère était Claire Sutton, sa secrétaire, sa véritable épouse. Notre mariage n’a été qu’une mise en scène. Et le rapport de fertilité qu’il m’avait montré, celui qui prouvait que mon ventre était défaillant, la raison pour laquelle nous devions adopter ? Tout était falsifié. Il voulait que j’élève son fils pendant que sa véritable femme observait depuis l’autre côté du bureau. J’ai pleuré pendant une seule nuit. Et le lendemain matin, un avocat est arrivé avec une lettre scellée de ce père dont j’ignorais l’existence, et un héritage valant plus que tout ce que Damien Holt touchera jamais. Mais il n’y a qu’une seule condition. Je dois épouser l’héritier de la famille Harrington, la dynastie la plus riche d’Amérique. Très bien. J’ai joué un rôle pendant trois ans. Qu’est-ce qu’un rôle de plus ? Seulement cette fois… c’est moi qui écris le scénario.
