Sakristan Mayor

Mi hermana adoptiva, Sophia, la última loba blanca de raza pura de la manada Grell, fue violada y torturada hasta la muerte por un lobo renegado desconocido. Su nota de suicidio contenía solo una frase: [Lina vio su rostro.] A partir de ese día, me convertí en la mayor pecadora de la manada. Porque yo sabía quién era el asesino, pero guardé silencio durante cinco años. Hasta que mi hermano adoptivo, Damien, el Alfa más poderoso de Norteamérica, regresó. Trajo consigo el Dispositivo de Visión del Alma y extrajo a la fuerza recuerdos de mi alma de loba. Todos los hombres lobo a los que se les había aplicado el Dispositivo de Visión del Alma murieron o se volvieron locos. Mi loba fue torturada repetidamente en el dispositivo, pero Damien reprimió el dolor en sus ojos y rugió: —Cuando encuentre la verdad, te enviaré a ti y al asesino al infierno juntos. Pero cuando finalmente descubrieron la verdad, Damien enloqueció.

Retired Marine. Force Recon. When Callan 'Cannon' Asher retires from the Marines and joins the best security firm in Miami, the jobs seems too easy. Protecting civilians is all he knows, pulling the trigger on people who don't deserve it is all he knows. When he receives a job to protect the Mayor's daughter, all hell breaks loose because the raven haired girl isn't just a brat but unlike any woman he has ever seen before. When he sleeps with her and abandons her when she gets too clingy, he learns the hard way that love isn't like one of his covert missions in Afghan (simple and fast) but a shitty complicated game. He never wanted to settle for one woman. Yet she's the only woman in his mind. He never dreamt of having a family behind a white picket fence. Yet she gave him sons. Twins! Most of all he never expected to lust over a married woman because not only did Nicole Montenegro screw him over by hiding his sons from him but she also went ahead and got his children a man to call their dad. For him, this is by far the most deadliest mission he has ever been on. Code name: Cannon Mission: Get his woman and his sons.

El día de mi compromiso, él quiso irse solo porque Violeta Mendizábal quería comer empanadas caseras hechas por él. Intenté detenerlo, pero me respondió con una bofetada. —Solo es un compromiso, lo podemos hacer otro día. ¿Y si Violeta se queda con hambre? Incluso mi hermano me regañó, como si yo fuera la culpable: —Tú eres mayor que Violeta, ¿no puedes ceder un poco? No respondí. Solo me di la vuelta y lo dejé ir. Pensando que era solo una rabieta mía, no le dieron importancia, y cancelaron todos sus compromisos para poder pasear con Violeta por montañas y playas. Recién medio mes después se acordaron de mí. Cuando por fin intentaron contactarme, se enteraron de que ya había ingresado a un programa confidencial del Estado, un proyecto de investigación de armas estratégicas que duraría diez años… Y que no pensaba volver jamás. Entonces sí, el pánico los invadió.

Perpekto na sana ang buhay ni Aria bilang tagapagmana ng isang mayamang angkan at mapapangasawa bilyonaryong at future Mayor na si Paulo Santillanes. Ngunit sumabog ang isang madilim na lihim: hindi siya ang tunay na anak. Pinalayas, inalisan ng yaman, at pilit inilalayo kay Paulo.

Wala siyang pakialam kung limot na nito ang nakaraan. Aariin niya ito gabi-gabi, hanggang sa ang mismong katawan ni Melissa ang makaalala kung sino ang nag-iisang lalaking nagmamay-ari sa kanya. Hanggang langit.

Liam Dunlap, my girlfriend's junior apprentice, bragged that he could defuse a bomb with one hand. Then he slipped. The timer began to race. Terrified, he dropped his tools and ran. I stepped in at great risk and saved the hostage. For that, I was commended. Liam, on the other hand, was condemned across the internet and faced severe disciplinary action. My girlfriend tried to speak up for him, but I stopped her. "If you defend him now, not only will your promotion be revoked—people online will come after you too." Later, unable to bear the pressure, Liam jumped to his death. Every line of his suicide note blamed my girlfriend for not standing by him. She said nothing. She simply burned the letter in silence. After that, she rose step by step from a frontline officer to a model figure in the police force. On the day I was kidnapped by criminals, she came in person to defuse the bomb strapped to me—using only one hand. She looked coldly at the device on my chest and said, "See? It can be done with one hand. Why did you all have to drive Liam to his death back then? If I had protected him at the time, the one in my position today… should have been him." The bomb detonated. I died on the spot. After I opened my eyes again, I saw her running around desperately for Liam. She didn't know—the hostage was the mayor's son.

La séptima vez que Simón Narváez faltó a nuestra cita para registrar el matrimonio, corté todo vínculo con él de forma radical. En las reuniones de amigos donde él asistía, yo faltaba deliberadamente. Cuando lo invitaron al acto del aniversario universitario, abandoné el lugar antes de su presentación. Si la empresa donde trabajaba optaba por colaborar con él, presentaba mi renuncia inmediata. Incluso en Nochevieja, cuando vino a mi casa para dar los saludos del Año Nuevo, inventé una excusa para no estar en casa. Lo bloqueé en el móvil, eliminé nuestros contactos mutuos, una ruptura total y definitiva. Ni yo lo contactaba, ni él tenía forma de encontrarme. Durante treinta años de mi existencia, había dedicado la mayor parte de mi tiempo a amarlo con devoción ciega, a cuidarlo con esmero. No fue hasta esa séptima vez en el registro civil, cuando una vez más me dejó esperando sola, que finalmente abrí los ojos. ¡Bastó ya de aquella situación! Preferí mil veces la soledad absoluta que seguir aguardando noche tras noche en un hogar vacío.

Todos sabían que yo, Isabella Marino, era la mayor debilidad de Vince Moretti: lo único que el jefe de la mafia nunca toleraría que fuera tocado. Hace años, cuando fui secuestrada, Vince se desarmó a punta de pistola, arriesgando la muerte para recuperarme, incluso pagando toda su fortuna por mi rescate. Para mantenerme a salvo, caminó al borde del abismo, navegando el peligro a cada paso. Después de que quedé embarazada, me atendía sin descanso, apenas permitiendo que mis pies tocaran el suelo. Había rumores de que mantenía a una amante mimada afuera, una mujer a la que malcriaba sin límites. Nunca les creí. Pero entonces ella se pavoneó frente a mí. Para rogar por mi perdón, Vince se cortó su propio dedo. Al día siguiente, esa mujer me mostró en la cara los resultados de su prueba de embarazo, burlándose y diciendo: —¡Vince quería tanto un bebé conmigo que simplemente no pudo evitarlo! Ya estaba frágil. La conmoción y la rabia me llevaron a un aborto espontáneo.

18++ "Damn, you're so tight." Hailey Bruce arched her back against the cold wood of the courtroom desk as Zeke Maximo, the ruthless crime lord she had sworn to fight, ripped her innocence away one thrust at a time. His hand clamped around her throat, and his voice was a low growl in her ear. "Your mayor daddy would be so proud watching you right now."

Siya si Marikit, ang babaeng sa sobrang ganda ay binansagan siya bilang si Miss Manananggal. Sa baryo San Lazaro, ang pagkakaroon ng porselanang balat at balingkinitang katawan ni Marikit ay hindi biyaya kundi isa itong sumpa. Para sa mga taga-rito, ang babaeng ubod ng ganda ay hindi tao, kundi isang halimaw na nahahati ang katawan pagsapit ng dilim. Habang ang lahat ay nanginginig sa takot tuwing nakikita si Marikit, para kay Joaquin ay isa itong biyaya. Mataas ang paghanga niya kay Marikit dahil sa gandang meron ito. Bukod doon ay namamangha siya sa katatagan ng loob ng dalaga dahil kinakaya nitong sikmurain ang lahat ng pangungutya ng bayan sa kaniya para lang maitaguyod ang kaniyang pamilya. Pero paano kung ang mga tao na ang humadlang sa kanilang dalawa? Anak ng Mayor si Joaquin habang si Marikit naman ang itinuturing na salot sa lugar nila. Sapat na nga ba ang paghanga ni Joaquin para ipaglaban ang isang babaeng sa paningin ng madla ay hindi dapat minamahal? O kailangan din ba niyang maging halimaw para lang maprotektahan ang kaisa-isang dyosa ng buhay niya?
