Steven Jessica Iskandar

Los vampiros solo tomaban un compañero en toda su vida. Y aun así, mi esposo vampiro se negaba a reconocerme a mí, su consorte humana, unidos por un matrimonio de alianza. La noche de nuestro décimo aniversario de bodas, Jason trajo a otra mujer a mi cama. Llevaba puesto mi camisón, y esperaba una cría de él. Y en mi mano, yo sostenía una prueba de embarazo que acababan de confirmarme. —Sé razonable, Elena. Jessica lleva a mi cría en su vientre. Me necesita. Ve a dormir a la habitación de huéspedes. Lamento la molestia. Mi esposo protegió a la otra con una sonrisa pulida y caballerosa, aunque su mirada conservaba la misma indiferencia de siempre. Cuando me vio paralizada en la puerta, Jason asumió que haría lo de siempre: Gritar. Llorar. Exigirle que me explicara por qué seguía haciéndome esto. Pero no sabía que esta vez era diferente. El pacto de diez años se cumplió, y por fin lo iba a dejar para siempre.

Warning. 21+ Emely married Alexander Winchester—the billionaire who chose her not out of love, but because a family arrangement demanded it. For an entire year, she tried to build a warm home and a future for them, yet all she ever received was his icy indifference and a gaze that reminded her she would never be enough. When Emely failed to get pregnant, Alexander made a devastating choice: he hired another woman to carry his male heir. Emely agreed, clinging to the hope that saving their marriage was still possible… even if their marriage had never been built on love to begin with. But fate had plans neither of them could control. The surrogate became pregnant and so did Emely. When the surrogate delivered a son while Emely gave birth to a daughter, her status in the Winchester family collapsed instantly. Overnight, she became the unwanted wife, the mother who didn’t matter, the woman who had failed to produce the heir they valued above all else. Everyone expected her to break. Instead… Emely rose. She returned to work, rebuilt herself piece by piece, and shone brighter than ever—catching the eye of the one man no one saw coming: Steven Hale, Alexander’s most ruthless business rival. A man who saw Emely’s worth from the very beginning. A man who was willing to fight for her. And just when Alexander finally realized that the woman he’d neglected was the only one he could never live without—Emely was no longer standing alone. Now only one question remains: Will Emely return to the man who shattered her into pieces… or choose the one who was ready to protect her from the very start?

„Alles ist gut, Schatz.“ Das ist es, was Steven ihr seit Monaten sagt. Aber heute Abend, auf der Feier zu ihrem Hochzeitstag, wird Shirley das Gefühl einfach nicht los, dass etwas ganz und gar nicht stimmt. Ihr Ehemann, einst so aufmerksam und präsent, wirkt jetzt fern und unnahbar. Seine ausweichenden Blicke, sein gezwungenes Lächeln ... und diese eine SMS, die er so krampfhaft zu verbergen versuchte. „Wir können so nicht weitermachen. Du musst ihr die Wahrheit sagen.“ Die Nachricht leuchtet auf seinem Handy auf und Shirley spürt, wie ihre Welt aus den Fugen gerät.

Everyone said I was too possessive when it came to my girlfriend, Amanda Crane. When Amanda first started taking photos of her childhood friend, Ian Lewis, I ripped apart all the rolls of film. When she helped him fix his computer, I called her 100 times in an hour. And when he called her from the airport, asking her to pick him up because the rain made it impossible to get a cab, I held a knife to my throat. I told her I'd take my own life if she went to him. Fed up, Amanda shipped me off to a psychiatric hospital that same night. When I got out, I vanished. Amanda was certain I was hiding somewhere, spying on her and Ian, but I never showed up—until the celebration party for a business project three years later. Ian put his arm around Amanda and swirled the wine glass he was holding. He shot me a taunting look, remarking, "You used to get so jealous, Steven. I'm sure you no longer mind if Mandy and I drink from the same glass now, right?" He waited for me to go berserk the way I used to three years ago, but I simply moved the bottle of wine closer to them. "I don't mind at all, of course. Have as many glasses as you want. It's great to see that your relationship has been progressing so well." Amanda paused. Her eyes started to redden. She stared fixedly at me and questioned, "Why don't you feel jealous anymore, Steven?"
