System Thinking And Design Thinking

I’d thought Christmas would end on a sad note. December 25th, which started with my husband’s fraud discovery, caught him with our supposed maid in the afternoon… I wasn’t expecting anything for the evening. “Take me anywhere. Somewhere loud, mad, anything just anywhere from these disgusting humans.” The driver really took my request seriously. He took me away from humans to the dangerous and lustful world of the shape-shifters. I’d doubted, thinking the fangs were for Halloween until THEY appeared. They offered me what my husband and I make in a year for a night. I thought I was painting December Detty for just one night by accetping thier offer. But they said no. "We're the Alphas of the Dynera pack, a woman once ours, is forever ours"

Rayna was a Beta’s daughter but was demoted to an Omega after her mom died during childbirth. After tolerating the abuse for a lifetime, she got to know on her eighteenth birthday that she was mated to the pack’s Alpha triplets. She was over the moon thinking that at last, she would get her due respect. Well! She was wrong. She was rejected brutally and abused by her mates who took another mate right there in the Luna oath ceremony. She swore to leave the pack and took the help of her Lycan who she thought was just a mere warrior. He had a certain royal air around him that demanded respect. She would surely run away but not before taking revenge from all those who failed her and thought that she was a weakling.

It is a one night mistake, a mistake that she will never regret. Mikaya's one night mistake at the bar with the stranger turns her life upside down. When she found out she was pregnant, she immediately broke up with her boyfriend and chose to go home to the province because of her parents. She live a simple and a happy life with his son. But fate is playful, because there is no secret that cannot be revealed. When her ex-boyfriend finds out that she has a child he's ready to take the responsibility for the child thinking that he is the father. Is she ready to tell him the truth? Or she will let his son meet the person he still loves. But love cannot make two people stay with secrets and lies. Would a woman like her be ready to reveal the whole truth?

I was born an Omega, seen as weak and disposable. Three years ago, the Blackfang Pack sold me, thinking I would never return. They were wrong. I came back, scarred but stronger, no longer the girl they discarded but a warrior that every Alpha fears. Lucian Draegor was my mate, the Alpha who let them take me without a word. Everyone fears him, and I used to think fate connected us. Now, I see him as the man who betrayed me. Lucian says I still belong to him, but if he wants me back, he will have to kneel. Kael Thorne, the Alpha of Ironclaw, gave me strength when I had none. He stands by me and will not back down. I didn’t return for love; I came back for revenge. I will make them pay.

Demetria Hernandez wants one thing. To grow her cozy bakery without getting tangled in the world of the rich and entitled. Then she crashes into Marion Whitfield, a billionaire with a razor-sharp tongue, a dangerous smirk, and zero patience for her attitude. She hopes never to see him again. Fate laughs. When she’s hired for a high-profile charity gala, she discovers the client’s son is none other than the arrogant stranger she can’t stand… and can’t stop thinking about. Clashing becomes their routine. Chemistry becomes their problem. And when jealousy turns deadly, Marion realizes one brutal truth. Money can’t protect him from losing the one woman he was never supposed to want. In a world of luxury and lies, love is the one thing neither of them can control.

SERENA is betrayed, her father is killed, and when she ends up escaping. She finds herself mated to FOUR BROTHERS! Now? She’s in love, not with one, but all…and what more? The Silverstone Quad alphas are also in love with her, but it’s only reasonable that she ends up with one of them. Who will she choose? Blake, whom she feels so drawn to? Kade, who acts kind of mysterious, and she can’t seem to deduce what he’s thinking? Dylan, who acts so uptight and righteous, but has his secrets and ploy? Or Jeremy, the one who acts like a clown yet alluring in his one way? Or wait? Would she end up with all of them? Well, you can find out…you just have to start reading!!!
