The Answer Is In The Wind

I'd been married to my lawyer husband for eight years. In all that time, he never once acknowledged me as his wife in public. He wouldn't even let our daughter call him "Dad." Again and again, he missed out on her childhood because of his childhood sweetheart. Even when she hurt our daughter, he still forgave her. I was worn out and empty. So I decided to leave. I took our daughter and vanished from his world. But he refused the divorce. He started searching for us like a madman, turning the whole world upside down. Only this time, neither my daughter nor I will be looking back.

Empty vessels make the most noise, and men who fit that description to a tee hardly make for suitable partners. When Corinne had to go on a blind date with someone like that, she did the unthinkable simply to show her disinterest in him—she kissed a handsome older man whom she had never met before. "I hereby pledge myself to you," the older man vowed. If a single kiss from her was all it took for him to devote himself to her, would a second kiss entail much more? There was only one way for Corinne to find out…

My boyfriend suddenly posted something on his Instagram. [I’ve offered my body and soul to the country.] I was about to ask what he meant when he sent me a plane ticket to the northwest. He explained that the mission was confidential and that he could not be in contact with me during this time. Ten months passed. He was supposed to be away, but he came home unexpectedly and caught me at a prenatal checkup. When he saw my eight-month-pregnant belly, his face turned pale with anger. “I’ve been gone for ten months. How are you pregnant?” I shrugged and said, “Weren’t you supposed to be gone for three years? Why are you back after just ten months?”

What would you do if you've been saving yourself for your mate? Only for him to choose another Alpha Female right in your face? Reciprocate the act. Avenge. An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. Easier said than done. Because whenever he was around me, my body betrayed me. "Alia, do you trust me? Even just for tonight?" His voice came out low and rough that it sent shivers of pleasure direct to my core. I know I should not trust him. But my mouth and body have a mind of their own. "I trust you, Gavin..." I whispered as I pressed my back to his naked chest. He took a deep breath and dipped his head into the crook of my neck, slowly brushing his lips against my burning skin. I angled my head, giving him more access while a sultry moan escaped my throat when he started nibbling and sucking the soft spot where his mark should be. This was all wrong, but I don't want to be right this time. Just for tonight. ¨¨¨¨¨¨Book 2 of the Black Shadow Pack Series - The novel is stand-alone, however, to understand the characters deeper and the concept of The Claiming, I highly recommend that you read the first book HE'S MY ALPHA (completed).

My fiancé, Skyler Grant, barges into the art gallery where my work is being exhibited and trashes the place. "You plagiarized Leah's work and pushed her to jump off a building! I can't believe you have the gall to have an exhibition here! I have to seek justice for her!" He sets the gallery on fire, leading to stray glass shards damaging my eyes. I'm tormented by the pain of losing my work and vision when Leah Rivers returns. She says indifferently, "It was April Fool's yesterday, and I was just fooling around. You're not mad at me, are you?" I charge at her hysterically, but Skyler shields her. "They're just some canvases—so what if they're gone? You can paint them again." He has no idea that I'll never paint again.

Abot tainga ang ngiti ni Elisa habang naglalakad papunta sa opisina ng kanyang asawa. Pinaglalaruan niya sa isip at ini-imagine ang mga eksena kung paano maaaring mag-react ang asawa niya sa balita tungkol sa kanilang magiging anak. Buntis siya, dalawang buwan na. Habang papalapit siya sa opisina, napansin niyang bahagyang nakabukas ang pinto, sapat na para makita at marinig ang usapan sa loob. “Tama na, Azrael, ang kulit mo talaga!” malakas na hagikgik ng isang babae. "Nakikiliti ako!" Biglang bumilis ang tibok ng puso ni Elisa, at pakiramdam niya ay dumaloy nang mabilis ang dugo sa buong katawan niya. Hindi siya sigurado sa narinig, kaya napagpasyahan niyang sumilip—ingat na ingat na hindi makita o marinig. Dahan-dahan siyang yumuko at nakita niya si Azrael, ang kanyang asawa, nakayakap sa baywang ng babae at mapusok na hinahalikan ang leeg ng babae. Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Elisa sa nakita, lalo pa nang sakupin ni Azrael ang mga labi ng babae. Parang sinasaksak nang dahan-dahan ang puso niya, hindi niya alam ang gagawin. Hindi niya rin namalayan na tumutulo na pala ang mga luha niya. "A-Azrael..." nanginginig niyang bulalas, dahilan kung bakit napatingin sa kanya ang asawa.
