Shrinking Potions

Married to Jasper Brook for six years, I found out that he was keeping a mistress under his wing. She was stunning but timid, shrinking back at the slightest raised voice. Because of this, Jasper never lost his temper around her. He indulged her fragility and treated her preciously. However, the mistress wasn’t as obedient as she appeared. When she stirred up trouble with me, Jasper’s patience snapped, and he unleashed his fury on her. The next day, she sent me a photo of her neck covered in hickeys. “Selena, Mr. Brook is so scary. I’m terrified.”

"He is Keegan. Don't ever get in trouble with him. He's from The Dragomirs. And you know who they are," said Louisa Collins to Lyla Helliwell on the first day Lyla entered Gothic Academy. Sure, Lyla knew who they were. Very influential Vampire family. Wealthy and powerful. But, Keegan Dragomir had marked Lyla as a new object of bullying. "We hate witches. They don't deserve to be in the Freaky world. They are just human who pretend to have power like us, with their stupid potions," said Keegan. Gothic Academy was a special school for The Freakies---weird and magical kids. Vampire, Witch, Siren, Lycan, Goblin, Elf, to Centaur. Something huge and dangerous was happening there, made the two different kind of Freakies---Lyla and Keegan---who hated each other, have to work together to protect the school from danger. Meanwhile, the unfinished story of their parents long long ago, revealed.

“I am sorry, Mr. Thomas, but I am married—" "To an asshole," Thomas interrupted, his voice dripping with disdain. My eyes flashed with anger. "To my husband," I corrected. Thomas raised an eyebrow. "Your husband doesn't know or care that you're crying because he's in there flirting with another woman." My face burned with shame. "He's just socializing," I defended, frustration betraying my words Thomas snorted. "By trying to get into her pants." He smirked, moving closer while I retreated, the space between us shrinking with every step. "I am sorry, Mr. Thomas, but my marital life is none of your business." "Only I can decide that." He said, his smirk twisting into a snarl I opened my mouth to protest, but he cut me off. “Say one more word and I'll have you right here and now" he said, his voice a low, husky growl. His finger traced the curve of my face, my heart racing and I felt my defenses crumbling. In a lightning-fast move, his lips slammed into mine, crushing me with a kiss that was both savage and intoxicating. ****** Two people, different worlds, with just one thing in common - Secrets.

As far as now, Raphael Lockwood, a mixed-blood witch—a human and a witch—has relied on the potions created by his father to live, which unfortunately began to lose their effectiveness. He's afraid he will die. At the same time, Isaac Kanon, his childhood friend who happens to be the ruler of the kingdom he lives in, confesses his love to him. Isaac is a human, and he is not willing to give up his feelings for Raphael. Even though Raphael rejects his love confession. But Raphael's condition begins to worsen, so he is forced to agree with the dragon, Daniel Krauss. The payment for his request is that he has to give up Raphael to be Daniel's fiance for a month.

Ma sœur jumelle Elaine et moi avons été accouplées aux jumeaux Alpha. Seul le premier bébé né de ma sœur ou de moi deviendrait l'héritier Alpha de la meute. Ma sœur est tombée enceinte un mois avant moi et elle était censée donner naissance à l'héritier en premier, mais j'ai accouché prématurément avec un mois d'avance. Quand j'étais sur le point d'accoucher, j'ai choisi de m'asseoir dans une chambre remplie de potions spéciales qui supprimaient les contractions. En effet, dans ma vie précédente, mon compagnon Alpha Marcus m'avait entraînée dans de l'eau contenant de l'aconit pour retarder mon accouchement. Au bout du compte, mon petit et moi étions morts dans l'eau. L'agonie était insupportable. J'avais sangloté et supplié, l'implorant de m'expliquer pourquoi il me faisait ça. Mais il avait complètement ignoré mes pleurs. Tout ce qui l'intéressait, c'était de précipiter Elaine dans la tanière d'accouchement de la meute. « Mon frère Maël est mort en me sauvant la vie. » m'avait-il alors hurlé. « La seule façon d'honorer cette dette de sang est de faire en sorte que son enfant devienne l'héritier de la meute. Tu peux en vouloir à Elaine autant que tu veux un autre jour, mais pas aujourd'hui, attends encore un peu. » « C'est une potion spéciale, tu seras saine et sauve, fais-moi confiance ! » Saine et sauve ? J'avais souffert dans cette chambre souterraine pendant un jour et une nuit entiers. Mon enfant étouffait dans mon ventre tandis que l'empoisonnement à l'aconit me consumait. Lorsque j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais revenue au jour de mon accouchement. Cette fois, je devrais me sauver.
