Solo Leveling Spin-off

Soy una mujer lobo, con ocho meses de embarazo del cachorro híbrido de mi compañero vampiro. Cuando comenzaron las contracciones, mi compañero vampiro, Justin, me encerró en un ataúd de hielo tallado con runas destinadas a suprimir el parto. Grité. Le supliqué. Y él solo dijo: —Espera. Pero todo esto era por su amor de la infancia. Isolde. La vampira de sangre pura había usado magia oscura de sangre para gestar a su heredero de sangre pura sin haber tenido relaciones. El primer niño vampiro nacido en un milenio recibiría la bendición suprema del Progenitor. Purificaría la línea de sangre. Rompería una maldición que se había estado gestando durante generaciones. —Ese honor le pertenece al niño de Isolde —dijo Justin, con la voz absolutamente gélida—. Ya tienes mi amor, Gracie. Este ataúd solo garantiza que des a luz después que ella. El dolor de las contracciones me desgarraba. Le supliqué que me llevara al Santuario de la Fuente de Sangre. Sin embargo, se inclinó hacia mí con sus dedos fríos sujetando mi barbilla. —Deja de actuar. Debí haberlo visto antes. Tú nunca me amaste. Eras una paria en el mundo de los hombres lobo. Solo querías mi poder y mi título. Estás tan desesperada que pondrías en riesgo a nuestro hijo con tus trucos salvajes de loba, solo para arruinar la bendición de un sangre pura… Eres venenosa. Las lágrimas corrían por mi rostro. Temblaba, mi voz estaba hecha pedazos. —El cachorro ya viene… no puedo detenerlo. Por favor, haré un juramento de sangre. No me importa la bendición. ¡Solo te quiero a ti! Él se burló, con un destello de dolorosa traición en sus ojos. —Si me amaras, no habrías ido corriendo con mi madre. No le habrías envenenado la mente contra Isolde. Volveré después de que ella reciba la bendición. Después de todo, el niño que llevas también es mío. Después de eso, se quedó montando guardia afuera del santuario donde el ritual de Isolde se llevó a cabo. No volvió a pensar en mí. No hasta que vio el halo de la bendición coronar a Isolde. Fue entonces que ordenó a su siervo de sangre que me liberara. Pero la voz del esclavo temblaba de terror. —Mi lord… Lady Gracie y el niño… sus signos de vida… han desaparecido. En ese instante, el mundo de Justin se hizo añicos.

Maya believes in fairy-tales and soulmates. Only problem with that is fairy-tales set a girl up for dissapointments in real life the prince goes off with the wrong princess.

My biased mother brought my sister, Irene Baxter, to help me with my child. But one day, I forgot to bring a contract to work. When I returned home, I saw two bodies entwined. To cover up their secret, my husband, Sam Hodgson, and Irene pushed me off the tenth floor. It was only after my death that I realized I had been nothing more than a tool for carrying on the family name. "It's better that she's dead. Now my sweet girl can be a mom without having to go through childbirth." "Sleeping with her was revolting; she was like a block of wood. Irene is so much better." Even Irene had regrets. "Still, we shouldn't have pushed her down. She was smashed beyond recognition—otherwise, we might’ve been able to sell her corpse for a pretty penny." When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day they pushed me off the building. This time, I wouldn't let any of them off the hook.

Mi hija Sofí era una pianista muy reconocida. El día de la final, alguien la encerró en el baño y, confundida, perdió la oportunidad de ganar el campeonato. Revisé las cámaras, descubrí a la culpable y me preparé para denunciar esa trampa. Pero mi esposo Andrés, me detuvo con firmeza. —Es solo una travesura de niños. Si insistes en denunciar a la hermana de Isabel, haré que Sofía ni siquiera obtenga el segundo premio. Temblé de rabia. ¡No podía creer que Andrés fuera capaz de humillar así a su propia hija solo por proteger a la hermana de su secretaria! En ese momento, Sofía me tomó de la mano, aguantando las lágrimas. —Mamá, ya no quiero el campeonato. Y tampoco quiero a papá. Apreté su mano con fuerza. —Está bien. Si tú no lo quieres a él, yo tampoco lo quiero.

A las dos de la mañana, cuando llegó la llamada urgente de los Ancianos de la manada, yo acababa de salir arrastrándome de debajo de mi amor de la infancia, el heredero Alfa Slade. Mi cuerpo todavía me dolía por su ruda posesión. Como la única sanadora humana en toda la manada Bosque Negro, se me ordenó preparar hierbas como regalo para la alianza de apareamiento de Slade con la manada de las Espinas. Levanté con cuidado el brazo de Slade, que me rodeaba. Tras una noche de pasión, su poderoso cuerpo Alfa aún irradiaba un calor febril. Supuse que esta era solo otra princesa loba a la que él necesitaba rechazar, así que le toqué el pecho con picardía y le pregunté con una sonrisa: —Slade, ¿qué excusa vas a usar por nonagésima vez? ¿Que de repente te dio alergia la princesa? Él se dio la vuelta y me besó la frente, con los ojos pesados por el sueño. —Mi dulce niña, esta vez las hierbas deben ser preparadas por ti, y solo por ti. El éxito de esta alianza descansa sobre tus hombros. Me quedé helada. Durante los últimos diez años, yo había sido su consuelo secreto, la que calmaba sus ataques violentos de ira cada noche. Pensé que, tarde o temprano, me ganaría una ceremonia de unión formal. Pero en ese momento, lo comprendí. Yo era solo una conveniencia, un cuerpo para su uso personal. Si eso era todo lo que yo significaba para él, entonces reduciría a cenizas todo lo que teníamos. Hice una llamada a mi antiguo mentor en el Instituto Nacional de Medicina, el profesor Sterling. —Profesor, ese puesto de investigación sobre genética... ¿todavía está abierto? Estoy lista para regresar al mundo humano. Pero cuando ese Alfa arrogante, que decía que éramos "solo amigos" y "estrictamente profesionales", descubrió que ya no podía percibir ni un leve olor mío en el aire, perdió completamente la cabeza.

Camilla walks into my study, and the air shifts. She's a distraction I can't afford, but fuck if I can resist her. Her fingers trace the edge of my desk, her eyes locked onto mine. "What are you doing, Camilla?" I growl, my control already fraying. She's a walking temptation, and she knows it. She smirks, her voice a sultry whisper, already undoing me. "Pushing your buttons, Zeke. Seeing how far I can go before you snap." My control falters. I spin her around, pressing her against the desk. My hands roam over her body, and I can feel her submitting. "You want this?" I ask, my voice a low growl. "You want to see the beast you're unleashing?" *** Camilla Dawson never expected to see the sinfully hot stranger she once hooked up with in a public washroom ever again. But fate—or rather, a father she never knew existed—has other plans. Now, she's bound and delivered as payment for a debt, straight into the hands of none other than Zeke Russell—the ruthless kingpin who always gets what he wants. Zeke built his empire on power and control, and he never takes no for an answer. Business or pleasure, the rules are his. It’s been years, but he’s never forgotten the woman who left him wanting more. Now, with Camilla thrust into his world as a replacement for his promised bride, everything spirals into chaos. She was never supposed to matter. Yet somehow, she’s slipping past his defenses, unearthing secrets he’s buried deep—and igniting a dangerous obsession. And when enemies close in, there’s nothing he won’t do to keep her. After all, what’s one more crime in the name of love?

I put my t-shirt down, my hands shaking. I try to ignore them and stare at my reflection in the mirror. My hair color is dark brown and a vague hint of golden. My dad used to say that my eyes are ocean blue. A guy in my history cl once said that I had perfect s. Another guy said that I had a great body. They wanted to date me. And I dated few of them. I brush my fingers in my forehead. Then my dark, thick eyelashes. The side of my nose. My s. I run my hand at my neck, then across my collarbone. Am I beautiful? Honestly, I don't know. Maybe I'm not. "You were wrong, Angelina Valentine." A voice inside my head suddenly whispers. "Calm down, Angel," another voice whispers. It's the voice I loved. His voice is fading away. My hands start shake again, my breath rapidly quickening. I am losing control. I have to do something. "Goddammit!" I punch the mirror with my fist. It shatters into thousand pieces. My reflection has shattered into thousand pieces, too. The mirror now looks to me like an art. And my bloody knuckles. "I am sorry, Edwin. I can't promise you anymore, because you left me." I bite my to stop myself from crying. I won't cry. What's the point of crying? My sixth sense is suddenly alert. Somebody is watching me. I spin around. A guy is standing in front of the door, leaning against it. He wears a tight blue shirt, the sleeves folded. His black hair is ruffled and his hands are folded across his chest. The probable most amazing thing about him is his eyes. They are dark green. They are dangerous, beautiful and incredibly unreadable. And they are watching me.
