Sarah J Maas

After forgiving Lucas for the tenth time, I stopped paying attention to his smell and whereabouts every day. The Pack Council had unanimously voted for me as the Chief Healer. However, Lucas used his Alpha authority to secretly give the position to his first love Sarah, a rogue wolf who had just returned to the pack. He noticed my silence but felt no guilt. Before leaving to answer Sarah’s mind link plea again, he held me. "Elena, this job is Sarah's only lifeline to stay in the pack. She’s been a rogue for too long. She needs an official rank for protection." "You’re different. Your healing gift is a blessing from the Moon Goddess. You shine anywhere." "She only gets a title. You have my complete love. Isn’t that enough? Don't be mad." My wolf, usually scratching to get out due to his neglect, was unusually quiet. "Okay." I didn't plan on keeping him or the job anyway.

Dans notre meute, chaque loup avait une seule chance dans sa vie d'utiliser un élixir d'amélioration pour renforcer ses capacités, mais cet élixir ne fonctionnait que s'il était préparé par soi-même. Dans ma vie précédente, même si j'étais une simple Oméga, j'avais passé mes journées et mes nuits à préparer mon propre élixir pour devenir la Gamma de la meute. Mais, le jour de la sélection, dès que je me suis transformée, j'ai totalement perdu le contrôle. Ma louve s'est aussitôt prosternée aux pieds de Victoria, la petite-fille du Bêta actuel. Sous les acclamations de toute la meute, Victoria est devenue la nouvelle Gamma. Moi, on m'a battue et humiliée. Tout le monde disait que j'avais volé l'élixir de Victoria, et c'est pour ça que je ne contrôlais plus ma louve. Ils m'ont coupé les deux mains et m'ont jetée dans une mine d'argent. J'ai souffert d'une douleur insupportable dans cette fosse, mes os rongés par l'argent. Jusqu'à mon dernier souffle, je n'ai pas compris… Comment mon propre élixir avait-il pu faire plier ma louve devant Victoria ? Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais revenue une semaine avant la sélection du Gamma. Cette fois, j'ai renoncé à participer et je suis partie seule dans la forêt pour m'entraîner au combat. Le Bêta Richard est resté planté dans l'embrasure de ma maison, me demandant par notre lien mental pourquoi je partais à un moment si important. Pendant ce temps, j'ai retiré mon amulette protectrice, puis je me suis transformée seule en louve pour aller affronter les loups errants sur leur territoire.

I never thought a dance could bring me disaster Tonight, at the annual Moon Goddess Festival, my brother, the heir of the Silver Moon pack, Aiden, and I performed a dance together. We won a lot of applause. Aiden made me the star of the festival. Unexpectedly, after the dance, Aiden's mate came with a group of sorority members to bully me. "How dare you flirt with Aiden? Omega! "Break her legs!" “No!No!No! I am Aiden’s sister!” I tried to explain, but they gagged me. I struggled desperately, but it only provoked an even more brutal beating. "If she's so horny, strip her naked and throw her into the boys' restroom," Bella said, standing nearby with her arms crossed. Tears of despair streamed down my face. Just then, Aiden arrived. "I'll make every one of you pay for this!" he roared.

I slept with my brother's best friend. And I didn't even know who he was. --- The first time I saw Rafael De Luca, he was a stranger by the pool with sin in his smile and hunger in his icy blue eyes. He kissed me like I was air and he'd been drowning. Then I learned his name. My brother's best friend. The heir to the De Luca empire. My family's sworn enemy. I should have walked away. Instead, I let him ruin me. One night of passion. One whispered "my little sunshine" against my skin. One secret I took with me when I disappeared without a trace. Now I'm back. Six years later, Rafael is colder than ever, Chicago's most feared mafia prince, and the man I'm being forced to marry. He doesn't know why I left. He doesn't know about the five-year-old secret waiting at home with his father's blue eyes. And he definitely doesn't know that one look from him still sets me on fire. "You're mine now, sole," he whispers against my lips on our wedding night. "And I'm going to find out why you left. Every. Damn. Reason." He thinks he's in control. He thinks he's the one ruining me. But Rafael De Luca doesn't know the truth yet. I didn't just sleep with my brother's best friend. I gave him a son. And when he finds out, this monster who wears obsession like armor will have to decide: Destroy me for my betrayal... Or surrender to the passion that could save us both.

I was the daughter of the Blackwood Pack's Alpha, and my mate, Damien, was the Alpha heir of the neighboring Pack. We grew up together, and when we turned eighteen, our wolves recognized each other as mates. I thought I would be happy forever, until Damien rescued an Omega named Sarah at the border. She was beautiful, appearing as fragile and innocent as a doe. Two months later, Damien finally made his decision. "Elena, let's break the mate bond. My wolf might have chosen you, but that's just instinct. I’ve never actually loved you, Elena. You've always just been like a sister to me." In my past life, I cried until I fainted. My father, heartbroken for me, personally pressured the Shadowcrest elders. Ultimately, Damien was thrown into the dungeon and Sarah was exiled. However, Sarah was killed by rogue wolves on her way out of our territory. Damien remained despondent for six months. Eventually, through my patient companionship and care, he pulled himself together and marked me. But fifteen years later, as I lay in bed suffering from silver poisoning, Damien appeared before me holding Sarah’s hand. He personally injected the final dose of silver into my body, watching me struggle and die in agony. But when I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the year I turned eighteen. After my rebirth, I severed all ties with my Alpha mate, Damien. In my previous life, I had spent six months pushing myself through combat training I wasn't suited for just to attend the Alpha Academy with him, leaving my body covered in scars. This time, I tore up the admission offer and headed to the Royal Lycan Academy of Healing in Europe. Years later, I returned to the pack house for my marking ceremony with my second chance mate—the Alpha King, the most powerful werewolf in existence. Damien knelt outside the pack house, his eyes bloodshot. "Please, just give me another chance to love you..."

Dans ma vie précédente, personne ne m'a aimée à part mon compagnon Alpha, Grayson. Mes parents et mon frère me traitaient comme une simple réserve d'essence de loup ambulante pour ma sœur Victoria. Mais Grayson n'avait pas oublié que j'avais peur du noir et laissait discrètement une veilleuse après mes transfusions d'essence ; il a gardé au fond de son cœur ma remarque en passant sur mon envie « de trouver un coin tranquille pour peindre », et m'a offert sans broncher cinq milliards d'euros pour que j'achète ma forêt préférée. Quand je lui ai avoué mes sentiments, même s'il a été surpris, il a tout de même accepté ma déclaration et m'a promis qu'il me marquerait, c'était certain. Dieu sait à quel point j'étais heureuse sur le moment — celui que j'aimais m'aimait aussi. Ce n'est qu'en mourant que j'ai compris que sa gentillesse envers moi était conditionnée par mes dons réguliers d'essence de loup à Victoria. Après ma renaissance, la première chose que j'ai faite a été de claquer cinq milliards d'euros dans l'achat d'une forêt isolée. « Mlle Ember, vous êtes sûre de vouloir acquérir cette forêt ? Si vous l'achetez et vous y installez, il sera quasiment impossible de joindre le monde extérieur. » J'ai hoché la tête, un soulagement perceptible dans la voix. « C'est précisément ce que je cherche — un endroit où personne ne pourra me retrouver. » Mais alors, quand je suis vraiment partie, pourquoi ma famille et Grayson sont devenus complètement fous en me suppliant de revenir ?

May Austin is left to care for her sick younger sister, Lily. Struggling to afford Lily’s medical treatment, May signs a surrogacy contract with the powerful Stones family, agreeing to bear a child for Damien Stone, the ruthless and handsome CEO. The procedure is impersonal—they never meet, and Damien only glimpses her in dimly lit rooms. May gives birth to twins, a boy and a girl. The family takes the boy, leaving May to flee with her daughter and sister, disappearing abroad to build a new life. For five years, she raises her daughter Aria while Lily grows healthy and excels academically. Their paths cross unexpectedly at an airport when Aria bumps into Damien. He feels an instant, inexplicable attachment to the girl, unaware she is his daughter. Sparks fly as Damien encounters May professionally when she returns as a director at his company. Attraction, tension, and unresolved pasts begin to surface. Meanwhile, their children play a pivotal role in reconnecting their parents. Damien’s grandfather, Daxton Stone, disapproves due to class differences and manipulates circumstances to challenge May and Damien, while Damien’s parents wholeheartedly support May. Corporate intrigue, sabotage, and a vindictive fiancée create further tension, especially as May’s son, Aiden, suffers domestic abuse and entrusts May to protect him. Alongside a parallel romance between Damien’s boyfriend, David, and May’s best friend, the story weaves love, resilience, and family into a gripping tapestry. As truths emerge and past grievances confront them, Damien and May must navigate threats, heal old wounds, and embrace the family destiny they never imagined. One Pregnancy, Two Babies is a story of love, sacrifice, second chances, and the unbreakable bonds of family, where children are the bridge that reconnects hearts separated by fate.
