Tessa Thompson Ethnicity

Quand Tessa débarque à Paris pour commencer son BTS, elle croit emménager chez Paul, le frère tranquille de sa meilleure amie. Mais en ouvrant la porte, c’est un autre visage qui l’attend : Noah Delcourt. Son premier amour. Son premier connard, aussi. Il l’a humiliée à seize ans, jetée pour une blonde parfaite, et elle ne lui a jamais pardonné. Aujourd’hui, le destin les enferme sous le même toit. Lui, héritier d’un empire hôtelier, arrogant, sûr de lui, persuadé qu’elle n’est “pas son genre”. Elle, étudiante fière, déterminée à décrocher son diplôme coûte que coûte, même si ça veut dire supporter son mépris et ses piques quotidiennes. Mais plus les jours passent, plus la frontière entre rancune et désir se brouille. Car vivre avec son ex… c’est vivre avec la tentation. Et parfois, la haine n’est qu’une autre façon d’aimer.

“Miss Mill, we need to talk,” I said, my voice barely controlled. Her eyes met mine, furious and determined. “I believe we have nothing more to discuss, Mr. Ryan,” she replied calmly, but I could see the hint of tension in her eyes. “We both know that’s not true,” I said, leaning in closer. “Yesterday …what happened between us—” “Was a mistake,” she interrupted, her voice shaking slightly. “It was a mistake, just like the one-night stand and it won’t happen again.” “A mistake?” I scoffed. “Don’t flatter yourself. You were convenient, that’s all.” Her eyes narrowed, anger visible. “Convenient? That’s rich coming from you. I wasn’t the one begging for more.” ******** After freeing herself from a toxic relationship, Tessa unconsciously indulges in a one-night stand, only to discover her partner is no other than her new Boss, Aiden. Attempting to play it safe they both refuse to talk about the incident. What happens when things get complicated, would she run away from it all or is she already slowly falling in love with her new arrogant Boss?

After being assigned to become a chaperone to younger entities of the dark by his alpha father, Cameron Thompson was determined to do exactly that to prove himself. Not wanting anything but to impress his parents his whole life, Cameron's life has always just been about doing whatever they want, even if it sometimes meant prioritizing them more than himself. Babysitting troubled witches and vampires can get quite hard. You have to deal with blood suckers and entitled brats who basically just make hexes around and cause trouble most of the time. But Cameron was a professional and everything was going smoothly until one young black witch was brought into the coven who was just purely trouble. Cameron did everything to do his job accordingly and keep his professionalism, but as time passed by he started falling for this creature who can't, and isn't, suppose to feel love.

He built an empire no one could shake… until she walked in and shattered his control. Alexander Thompson is a billionaire CEO, feared for his cold heart and iron discipline. No one challenges him. No one defies him. No one says no. Until Jasmine Ramirez. She’s simple. Honest. Unimpressed. And completely immune to his charm, his power, and his intimidation. “Ms. Ramirez, I’m used to being obeyed.” “Then you’ve never met a woman like me, Mr. Thompson.” For the first time, someone dares to push back. Someone he can’t intimidate. Someone he can’t forget. The more he tries to keep his distance, the more dangerously he falls. She is his distraction. His weakness. The one woman he can’t afford… yet can’t resist.

"Henceforth, you will live here. You belong to me now." Ryan declared, his deep voice slicing through my defenses. --- At just twenty-two, Jack Harris was on the brink of despair in the dangerous Stone City. Alone in the world and struggling to survive, he was ready to give up. Then, he crossed paths with Ryan Thompson, the man who held the city in his grasp. By day, Ryan was a charming CEO; by night, he ruled as the feared Mafia boss. Rather than seeing Jack as a victim, Ryan perceived him as the universe's gift to him. He offered Jack a chance at life, unaware that the price would entail facing his deepest fears. Ryan quickly became fixated on Jack, drawn in by the very terror Jack embodied. After enduring a series of pain, terrifying BDSM and displays of dominance, Jack ultimately surrendered, marking the most significant compromise of his life.

My adopted sister, Rebecca Lawson, steals the gift I painstakingly prepared for the Don and presents it at a family gathering. Everyone in the room is stunned. So, my parents turned what was supposed to be my engagement party into a celebration banquet for Rebecca. They sit together and raise their champagne glasses to toast her, while I collapse alone in the bathroom, hitting my head and bleeding out. After regaining some consciousness, I use all my strength to call them for help, but only the mafia's consigliere and my fiance—Yves Gilbert—answers my calls. "Tessa, why didn't you come to Rebecca's celebration? She felt hurt by your absence! I know you've always been jealous that she could easily gain everyone's affection, but it's what she deserves. "Quickly come over and apologize to Rebecca. Don't disappoint us any further." Yves hangs up the phone after saying that. I stare at the darkened phone screen with an unsightly smile. They don't know that the gift I have prepared for the Don is still a half-finished product and needs to be repaired. However, I don't have the time to tell them. Because I am about to die of illness.

Adrianna James thought she was done with Eric Thompson—until two pink lines force her to reconsider. Determined to give her child the love of a father, she seeks him out… only to find him with another woman. Then there’s Damien Carter—mysterious, infuriating, and now her new work partner. When their latest assignment forces them into Eric’s world, Damien proposes a ridiculous idea: team up to stalk their exes. It’s reckless. It’s unprofessional. And somehow, it’s exactly what Adrianna needs. But as the lines between partnership and something more begin to blur, Adrianna finds herself caught between the past she thought she needed and the future she never saw coming. Does she choose the man she once loved—the father of her child? Or the one who makes her heart race in ways she never expected?

Seven months pregnant with our heir, I was on the front lines, fighting for my Alpha mate, Ethan. I’d just secured a thirty-million-dollar territory for our pack and rushed home, eager to surprise him with the news. But as I neared the council room, the broken sobs of his adopted sister, Tessa, stopped me cold. "A low-born Silver Wolf like Sophia... she's not worthy of being our pack's Luna." "Ethan, we're the ones who are fated to be together. Mark me... please?" My blood ran cold. I expected Ethan to shove her away, to defend my honor. Instead, he caressed her cheek, his voice a soft, gentle murmur that cut me deeper than any blade. "Just give me a little more time, Tessa. On the next blood moon, I'll sever my bond with Sophia." My world shattered. I fled, only to be cornered and brutally murdered by Tessa. She framed my death as an attack by a rogue wolf before tossing my body from a cliff. It wasn’t until the news of my death reached him that Ethan finally broke. He fell to his knees at the edge of that same cliff, his agonized howl echoing into the night. "Sophia… I was wrong. Please, just come back to me."

My husband and I were in a passionate embrace when his phone suddenly rang. He pushed me away without hesitation, and I snatched the phone from his hand angrily. It was a message from his sister-in-law. [Henry, my mastopathy is acting up again. What should I do? My breasts hurt so much.] It was followed by a picture of her in sexy lingerie. That was when I lost my temper. "Your sister-in-law is such a shameless woman! How could she share such a picture with you in the middle of the night? How dare she harass you like this after your brother's passing?!" Henry kicked me out of bed. "Stop being petty and vicious, Tessa! My brother's death has been a huge blow for her. What's wrong with me showing her concern as family when she's sick?” "Have you any idea how disappointed I am with you? Apologize right now, or I'll divorce you!" In all our years of marriage, Henry would always threaten me with divorce because I was the one who courted him for five years before finally marrying him. He felt that I would never be able to leave him, but this time, I had lost all hope in him. I did not want him anymore.
