Tetra Coffee Solo Menu

My sister has awakened her mermaid bloodline, but it is incomplete. Her skin is her curse. A single touch, too hard, and it cracks. For her, everything hard in our house has been thrown away. I love to dance, but the hard tips of ballet shoes are forbidden. I love music, but the strings of a guitar or the keys of a piano are too dangerous. Every dream I've ever had has been strangled in its cradle because of my sister's condition. My brother, Liam, who raised us both, always looks at me with tired, pleading eyes. "Elara is fragile, Isla. You have to be understanding." But I was only eighteen the first time I truly understood. I came home from my high school graduation ceremony, the scent of sunshine and excitement still on my clothes. The moment I stepped inside, Elara's hand connected with my cheek. Hard. For no reason at all. Everyone rushed to her. Liam pointed a furious finger at me. "Look what you've done! You've hurt her hand! How could you be so careless?" He shoved me aside and rushed out with Elara to find a doctor. I fell back against the glass coffee table, the impact jarring. And then, a strange, cold pain bloomed across my back. I felt my skin... tear. It was then I remembered the doctor's words from my last check-up: "You carry the Siren's Gene, Isla. It could manifest at any time." As my vision blurred, my own blood pooling on the pristine white floor, I finally understood. The curse wasn't just my sister's. It was mine, too.

Who meets Prince Charming in an elevator while carrying their broken shoe? Lena Masterson was having a rough day. Her coffee pot exploded, her favorite heel broke on the way to work, her computer died, and her coworker sabotaged her performance review that she should have aced. To top it all off, she had to stay late. So when she ran into a handsome stranger at work, she was certain that it was the worst day of her life. Instead, it was the start of something wonderful. From the moment she nearly bowled the man over, she thought about him. She didn’t know anything about him, and could only assume that he was someone’s assistant. Still, the encounter left her with new self-confidence. She made a move assertive enough to get the attention of her boss’ boss, and be granted a new position as the personal paralegal of the head partner. This promotion soon led to an important trip to the Caribbean, where she saw a familiar face on the beach… Everything seemed perfect when she was in Aiden’s arms, but he was holding something back. Worse, Lena was keeping a secret from him as well. She knew that she couldn’t keep up her little white lie forever, but it turned out that Aiden’s secret was much bigger. Much much much bigger. A billion times bigger, in fact. Even though he treated her like Cinderella at the ball, it was possible that the billionaire playboy just thought of her as one of his “flavors of the week”. After saying goodbye with one last barefoot kiss and returning to the real world, there was a burning question on Lena’s mind: Did this Prince Charming love her as much as she loved him?

Tuvimos una relación de diez años. Salvador Ríos, finalmente, aceptó casarse conmigo. Pero el día en que debíamos tomarnos las fotos para la boda, cuando el fotógrafo nos pidió que nos besáramos, Salvador frunció el ceño con desagrado, murmuró que sufría de misofobia y, sin más, me empujó suavemente a un lado y se marchó solo. Yo, con la cara ardiendo de vergüenza, me vi obligada a disculparme con todo el equipo por su actitud. Afuera caía una nevada densa. Era imposible encontrar un taxi. Caminé sola, paso a paso sobre la nieve, con los pies empapados… y el corazón también. Y al llegar al departamento que sería nuestro hogar conyugal, lo encontré besando a Lucía Solís. Abrazándola como si el mundo estuviera a punto de acabarse. —Lucía… solo dime una palabra… y dejo esta boda y todo ahora mismo —susurró él. Diez años de amor ciego… de pronto se convirtieron en una broma cruel. Lloré como nunca. Y luego decidí que sería yo quien escapara primero de esa boda. Tiempo después, se corrió la voz en todo nuestro círculo social: El joven Ríos buscaba desesperadamente a su ex prometida por todo el mundo, solo para rogarle que lo mirara una vez más.

—Hay algo duro aquí abajo que me está picando. En el auto de la escuela de manejo, para enseñarle a manejar a mi ahijada, hice que se sentara en mis piernas para guiarla personalmente. Pero apenas encendimos el motor, el auto se nos apagó y la carrocería dio un brinco muy fuerte. Esos amortiguadores de mi ahijada se hundieron profundamente en mi entrepierna. Lo que terminó por acelerarme el pulso fue notar que Camila solo llevaba puesta una minifalda cortísima que no le cubría nada.

Ang inaakala ni Nadine Cruz na maginhawang buhay sa piling ni Jayson Saavedra ay isa palang bangungot. Isa lang pala siya sa apat na naging asawa ng bilyonaryong gwapo. Isa lang pala siya sa sasaktan, pahihirapan at pinaghihigantian nito dahil sa kasalan ng nauna nitong asawa sa kanya. Hindi niya kayang lumabang mag-isa. Kailangan niya ng tulong ng dalawa pang pinakasalan ng akala niya, solo niyang asawa. Ngunit ano nga ba ang magagawa nilang tatlong inosente? Kaya ba nilang pantayan ang lakas at kapangyarihan ng kanilang demonyong asawa?

—Por favor, deja de empujar. No puedo soportarlo más. El lugar del concierto estaba abarrotado. Un hombre detrás de mí sigue presionándome el trasero. Hoy estaba vistiendo una minifalda con una tanga debajo, y eso solo empeora la situación actual. Él levanta mi falda y se aprieta contra mis caderas. A medida que el ambiente se calienta, alguien delante de mí me empuja y retrocedo un paso. Mi cuerpo se pone rígido al sentir como si algo se hubiera deslizado dentro de mí.

Seven years ago, Himera was left broken by Derrick Leonard–the only man she ever trusted with her body, and the one who turned her love into humiliation. Now, fate has given her a second chance. On a solo vacation in Spain, she meets her mate, Elliot, and the bond ignites instantly. But it all comes with a devastating truth: in his bloodline, brothers share one mate. And so she is brought to the other. Derrick. The man she never truly escaped. He doesn’t want her. She refuses to fall again. And Elliot refuses to let her go. Caught between past pain and a fated bond she cannot break, Himera must choose–fight destiny, or surrender to it.

Nora Ainsley didn’t sign up to play hero. As a rogue-born tracker for hire, she works solo, stays broke, and minds her business. But when a missing pendant leads her into the heart of a conspiracy tied to the murder of the Silver Ash Pack’s Luna, she gets dragged into something way bigger than she ever wanted. Now she’s a suspect, a target, and holding a magical artifact every side wants to kill for. Worse, the only person offering help is Roman Vale—a masked stranger who’s got his own twisted ties to the very pack that wants Nora dead. She didn’t ask for this war, but if she doesn’t fight back, she won’t survive it.

Llevaba siete años con Santiago, y aun así él no quería casarse conmigo. —Santiago, estoy lista para casarme —le dije un día con calma. Él frunció el ceño con indiferencia, como si ni siquiera hubiera escuchado bien mis palabras. —Joana, la empresa está a punto de salir a bolsa, estoy tan ocupado que no pienso perder tiempo en un tema tan irrelevante. Sonreí con tranquilidad. Tal vez, en sus ojos, aquello era solo un intento desesperado de presionarlo para que me propusiera matrimonio. Pero lo cierto es que, esta vez, sí me iba a casar… Pero el novio no sería él.
