Shapeshifter Animal

O híbrido de serviço de classe elite que comprei não gosta de mim; ele ignorava minha presença e só abanava o rabo para a minha irmã. Frustrada, acabei levando para casa um híbrido de classe inferior, daqueles vendidos para aliviar o estresse de forma brutal. No entanto, quando ele percebeu minhas intenções, entrou em pânico, quase chorando de desespero. — Daniela, você só pode criar a mim! Vou ser o seu único cachorrinho! — Implorou ele.

Stella is a broken vessel, a Tribian star that falls every 500 years, who carries the fate of a shapeshifter named Chase and his kind. Chase is a shapeshifter destined to save his clan. Their paths crossed in an unprecedented occurrence, and they became star-crossed lovers. However, even if he was madly in love with the Tribian Star, would he be able to drain her life in order to save the clan that has yearned for peace for centuries? Would Stella finally break free of her eternal curse and find love in Chase's arms?

Mi hermana y yo fuimos transportadas por accidente a las tribus de hombres bestia, y el Dios Bestia nos dio a elegir nuestra identidad. La primera opción es convertirnos en Guerrera Bestia, con fuerza poderosa y figura robusta. La segunda opción es convertirnos en Doncella Sagrada, con capacidad de reproducción entre especies y figura esbelta y sensual. En mi vida anterior, mi hermana eligió la primera opción para sobrevivir, y yo me convertí en la débil y deseable Doncella Sagrada. Pero a ella, por no ser lo suficientemente delicada, los machos de la tribu la despreciaron. Por eso, solo le asignaron tres machos discapacitados. A mí, en cambio, por mi figura grácil, los tres hombres bestia más fuertes y apuestos me volvieron su consentida. Luego ellos se convirtieron en los reyes de la selva virgen, y yo en Doncella Sagrada, llena de gloria. Mi hermana, muerta de envidia, aprovechó un descuido para empujarme a un pantano venenoso. Con mi último aliento, le clavé un aguijón venenoso y morimos juntas. Al abrir los ojos otra vez, volvimos al momento de elegir ante el Dios Bestia. Esta vez, mi hermana se apresuró a escoger ser la Doncella Sagrada. —Mariana, esta vez la Doncella Sagrada seré yo. Por lástima, te regalo a esos tres machos inútiles y discapacitados. Contengo mi inmensa alegría. ¿Qué tiene de bueno ser encerrada como herramienta de reproducción? Hay que saberlo: en una sociedad primitiva, el que manda es el más fuerte.

To save the vampire clan, I slept with my crush, Stefan Ferrano. Stefan had always been cold and distant, but that night, his response was fiery. He ignored the fact that I was inexperienced and took me with wild, unrestrained passion. Everything unraveled when my blood servant, Stella Luciado, brought me fresh blood and Stefan found out. Like a man possessed, he tore off all my clothes and dragged me into the sunlight. “So even the vampire queen is afraid of sunlight? Do you know what sort of torture your kind are enduring right now? But no pain compares to what I felt losing my sister because of you and your kind.” For five years, he held my clan’s safety over my head. He locked me in a sunroom and found new ways every day to torment me in bed. The day I gave birth to his child, he married Stella. Stefan called my child a bastard and forced me to watch him and Stella sleep together. When Stella was unhappy, he bled me so she could bathe in my blood. He even painted with my blood and made me dance undressed in the sun. He tortured me but never let me die, using specially made drugs to keep me alive. A vampire who had offered their ancestral blood but didn't turn a human into a vampire within five years would end up dead. I had five days left to live. Finally, I didn't have to keep my secret anymore.

Ethan Gibson, un multimillonario, estaba decidido a romper la maldición de su familia: terminar sin heredero. Se gastó una fortuna reclutando a diez "candidatas a ser madre" y nos llevó a todas a su isla privada, la Isla Brumazul. El día que llegamos, Ethan lo anunció ahí mismo, delante de todas: —La que dé a luz a mi primer heredero será la futura señora Gibson. La codicia creció más rápido que el deseo. En apenas unos meses, varias mujeres anunciaron sus embarazos con orgullo, casi presumiendo. Pero las tiraron al mar, a ellas y a los bebés que llevaban dentro, y las dejaron como alimento para los tiburones. La razón era simple: las habían encontrado con otros hombres. Cada noche, los gritos que subían desde el muelle no me dejaban dormir. Yo estaba aterrada, porque también había tenido un solo encuentro accidental con Ethan y ahora estaba embarazada. Cuando por fin llegó el día y vi lo que había parido, todo se me fue a negro. Esas mujeres que terminaron como alimento para los tiburones, al menos, llevaban bebés humanos. Yo había parido tres cachorritos diminutos.

I was a mermaid from the deep sea. Out of curiosity and playfulness, I was caught by a fisherman and endured unbearable torment. Just when I was on the brink of death, Trevon Chapman happened to pass by and saved me. So, I gave up my identity as a mermaid princess, left the ocean behind, and followed him into the human world. For five years after our marriage, Trevon granted my every wish and showered me with affection. I truly believed I had found a safe harbor I could depend on for the rest of my life—until fate struck with its cruelest blow. Trevon's childhood sweetheart had fallen gravely ill, and only a mermaid’s tail could save her. I begged him desperately, but he responded with chilling indifference. "You're only losing your legs. Corinne is losing her life. Are you really that heartless? You're just going to watch her die?" "Besides, you can’t return to the sea anymore. That tail means nothing to you now. From now on, I’ll be your legs." After the surgery, I sat in a wheelchair, running my hand over the empty fabric where my legs should have been, and calmly demanded a divorce. Trevon pulled Corinne into his arms, sneering. "You're neither human nor fish now—a monster. Without me, the only road left for you is death." Yet in the end, when I transformed back into a mermaid and leapt into the sea, his cries and desperate sobs echoed across the waves.

In my last life, my sister, Raven Webster, and I rescued two eggs. Her egg hatched into Snowviper, while mine became Blazewing. But Raven stole Blazewing from me. None of us could have imagined the world would end in a brutal heatwave apocalypse. Raven died from heat stroke in that inferno. And before she died, she tricked my husband, Snowviper, into strangling me with his own tail. Somehow, we were both reborn on the very day those eggs hatched. This time, Raven snatched up Snowviper. She thought having him would keep her safe through the heatwave apocalypse. What she didn't know was that Snowviper's powers could only be fueled by drinking fresh human blood every single day.

Before the dark, obsessive, hideous, and disabled Alpha of the Wolf Pack chose his wife, rumors spread that he favored Cat Clan beastwomen above all others. My fiance feared that my family's maid would be selected, so he spent days and nights making passionate love to her in my bed behind my back. Only after the maid conceived his beast egg did he finally feel at ease. On the day my fiance and I were supposed to form our bond, the maid stroked her slightly rounded belly and flaunted it before me. "Ms. Sinclair's bed certainly served its purpose. Nate and I only needed three months to conceive a beast egg." After speaking, she deliberately covered her mouth with a triumphant smile. "Oh, I forgot to mention—Nate is actually the exiled heir of the Eagle Clan! "For old times' sake, he said he'd graciously allow you to join the Fairfaxes as my maid to care for me during my pregnancy." I let out a cold laugh. She was destined for disappointment. If she would not marry the Alpha of the Wolf Pack, then I would. I could never be her maid, because I would only ever be the Wolf Pack's Luna.

My adopted sister won the Elixir Challenge by stealing my potion. To her shock, she was informed that the event was a selection event for the future wife of the Serpentkins' future head—the same heir who was infamously impotent, barbaric, and hideous. When the Serpentkins sent over a proposal letter, demanding her hand in marriage, my fiance panicked and promptly took my adopted sister away for a quick marriage and even consummated. Once the deed was done, she returned triumphantly, showing off the mark on her lower back. "Well, what are you going to do now, Winnie?" she gloated. "Your fiance is mine now, and you'll be twenty-five in three days. If no one comes to pick you up, you'll just be dumped into the hands of some wife-beating Rogue who is ageing and unwanted…" Actually, she was wrong—I had a choice. I went to the parlor where my parents—who were busy fixing the mess my adopted sister made—were, announcing, "If she refuses to marry the future head of the Serpentkins, I will!"
