“Answer me, Nessa. Do you want to kiss me again?” When I finally opened my mouth to answer, Vito interrupted me. “And before you do, you should know the power your words hold, so think very well before you do.” I wasn’t ashamed to admit that I’d fantasized about it a few nights prior. “I do.” I finally answered, my words just as breathless as his. “You are certain that you want to do this?” I almost smiled. He was supposed to be a big bad mafia boss, but there he was making sure that I really wanted him to fuck me. Without saying anything else, I held the lapels of his shirt and brought his lips down on mine. ~•~ Nessa Sims faces an unfortunate fate when Vito Giancana, the don of the Italian mafia, offers her a job.

"pwede ba kuya! hindi naman namin pinapalayas yang asawa mong magaling. Kusa siyang umalis dito sa bahay, sinampal niya pa si Celestine, isa pa nabalitaan ko sa mga friends ko na yung haliparot na yun ee dun na nakatira sa condo ni Oliver" sagot pa nito sakin habang si Celestine ay tahimik lang na nakatayo sa likod ni Cecille. "CECILLE! tigilan niyo na kakagawa ng kwento tungkol kay Natalie." napatiim bagang kong sagot dito "sige tawagan mo Sebastian ng magkaalaman kung sino nagsasabi ng totoo dito. i-loud speaker mo para marinig ng lahat ang katotohanan." sabi pa ni mommy sakin. "Hello Sebastian napatawag ka?" tanong nito sakin "Oliver may gusto akong malaman at gusto ko sabihin mo sakin ang katotohanan, lalaki sa lalaki sabihin mo sakin sayo na ba nakatira ang asawa ko?!" tanong ko dito "Sebastian, oo totoong sa condo ko nakatira si Natalie, pero hindi ganun ang ibig sabihin nun. Tinulungan ko lang siya ng minsan ay madisgrasya ang sasakyan na sinasakyan niya, nabangga ang kotse niya sa poste nung oras na umalis siya sa mansion niyo, nakiusap siya sakin na wala na sanang ibang makakaalam ng nangyari kaya pina block namin sa news ang nangyaring aksidenteng ! Kilala mo ako Sebastian, oo tarantado ako at mahilig sa babae, pero hindi ang klase ni Natalie ang babaeng papatol na lang sa ibang lalaki kung wala ang asawa niya. Sya ang klase ng babaeng irerespeto. Siguro kung wala ka sa buhay niya hindi ko palalampasin ang pagkakataon na ligawan ko siya. Kaya ingatan mo ang asawa mo Sebastian, one in a million lang ang ganyang babae, kasi kung aayaw na talaga siya sayo. Hinding hindi ko siya pakakawalan."sagot nito sakin

My Alpha husband, Ryder, has always hated the sound of a crying pup. But recently, he started caring for my adopted sister's newborn pup, staying by its side in the nursery every night until dawn. Every time Ryder left our bedroom for the nursery, an inexplicable stabbing pain would pierce through my chest. This agony would last all night until dawn when he returned. I had finally reached my breaking point. At the Full Moon Festival, I announced in front of the entire pack that I was rejecting our mate bond. The pack's mind-link erupted with whispers that the battle had damaged my mind. A golden light ignited in Ryder's eyes as he stared at me in disbelief. "Because I was too busy to check on you when you were injured, you're rejecting our bond over a six month old pup?" I didn't meet his eyes. Instead, my gaze lingered on the faint lipstick mark smudged inside his collar. My voice trembled, yet it did not waver. "Since you love her pup so much, once our bond is severed, you can openly be the father."

Sequel to Xara: His unwanted, beautiful bride Elon didn't have much luck with women. It wasn't because he wasn't good-looking, rich, or charming. That wasn't the reason.

Everybody except one woman, Ida Moore, has always had a strong attraction to him. However, this attraction has never been mutual, and Ida has always harbored these feelings alone. What will happen when Elon, in a lighthearted endeavor, chooses to become an incognito aficionado of Ida, only to find himself unexpectedly smitten with her?

Alessa found herself in the unexpected role of replacing her older sister as wife, after the latter refused to marry a man who had supposedly suffered burns to ninety percent of his body during a terrible accident.

[18+] “I want you to submit yourself to me. Submit your body to me. I don’t want your soul, your heart, or your devotion, and you will get the same from me. Pleasure for pleasure.” The contract was made up, and clear. It was a deal between two strangers, who agreed to remain strangers, despite being intimate. “What if we end up breaking the terms?” She asked in a timid voice, which was so unlike her. “The contract shall become null and void. And we will part ways without looking back.” Theodore Gilbert took confident steps towards her. Taking her chin between his thumb and index finger, he tilted her face to make her look up. Her lower lip quivered at the touch. “I want your body, Natalie. To do as I please for a price. I dare you to fall for me.”

Gumuho ang isa sa mga pangarap ni Naneng Araneta ang magkaroon ng magandang relasyon nang harap-harapan niyang nasaksihan ang panloloko ng kanyang nobyong si Raze Almirante at ang kanyang matalik na kaibigan na si Sheena Lopez—isang gabi sa mismong condo ng nobyo. Matapos ang tatlong-taon na panloloko ng nobyo sa kanya, napagdesisyonan ni Naneng hiwalayan ito't magsimula ng panibagong pangarap—para sa kanyang sarili, at maging sa mga kapatid na rin. Ang pangarap na muntik na sanang maabot, ay nauwi sa isang mabigat sa loob na desisyon. Ngunit, bagaman, nawala man iyon ay alam niyang may panibagong darating—iyon ay ang magkaroon ng panibagong trabaho sa isang malaking kompanya ng Exhibition Space kung saan dito niya ulit makikita si Kid Gabriel Alcantara—ang pinsan ng dating amo nito. Isang gabi sa isang malaking event ng Exhibition Space—hindi inaasahan ni Naneng na ang patikim-tikim lang sana ng alak ay nauwi sa pagkalasing nito. Nang kinabukasan, nagtaka—nagtanong sa sarili kung paano siya napunta sa isang hindi pamilyar na lugar. Saka niya lang naalala ang lahat nang makita si Kid na nakatayo sa paanan ng kama. Dahil sa takot at reputasyon niya bilang babae—nakiusap siya kay Kid na itago na ang lang lahat na nangyari sa kanila. Bagaman, pumayag si Kid nang magkaroon ng isang kondisyon; iyon ay ang maging tagapagbigay ng aliw sa kanya tuwing nangangailang ang katawan nito. Mabigat sa kalooban ni Naneng ang kasunduan na iyon. Ngunit, kinakailangan niyang sumang-ayon dahil kilala niya ang binatang iyon; may pangalan sa kumunidad. Isang Alcantara na magiging bangungot sa kanyang kinabukasan at hindi niya matatakasan; nagtapos sa pagtanggap ng alok.
