The Bear

Seorang Majikan cantik memutuskan berselingkuh dengan sopir pribadinya demi membalas dendam pada suaminya yang ternyata diam-diam sudah menikahi sahabatnya. Awalnya sopirnya hanya di jadikan alat balas dendamnya saja, namun setelah menyadari pesona sopir tampannya, bos cantik tersebut benar-benar jatuh cinta pada selingkuhannya tersebut. "Satu langkah lagi Anda mendekat, saya tidak akan segan-segan menelepon Pak Yudi!" ancam Harry, sopir tampan dari majikan cantik bernama Alena. "Kamu mau memberitahu suami saya kalau kamu pernah nidurin saya?" Alena terus maju mendekat ke arah Harry. "Bukan, tapi saya akan lapor padanya kalau Anda terus berusaha menggoda saya!" Alena tertawa keras sekali, "Kamu pikir dia akan percaya begitu saja ucapanmu?" tanya Alena dengan seringai nakalnya.

My husband's childhood sweetheart is gravely ill. She says her only wish is to die in his arms. So, she boldly moves into our marital home. I demand an explanation for this, but my husband only snaps at me. "Why are you holding this against her when she already has one foot in the grave? Can't you be more magnanimous?" I sneer at that. Half a month later, the paparazzi catch me coming and going from Novak Group's heir's villa. My husband demands an explanation with bloodshot eyes. I imitate his previous response. "Why are you holding this against him? Can't you be more magnanimous?"

"You're no daughter of this pack," my mother hissed, her golden eyes flashing in the firelight. "If you can't support your Alpha sister, then get out." I should have seen it coming. In the Ashveil Pack, family means everything—unless you're me. Vera Darkthorne, the disappointment. While my perfect sister Eris got the love, the title, even my mate Cain, I got a mating ceremony where nobody showed up. Not even the man who swore he'd always be mine. That night, I ran. Now I've built a new life in Berlin's underground werewolf syndicate, where strength is the only law that matters. I've learned to fight, to lead, to make wolves twice my size back down with just a look. But when a message comes that Eris's dying, the pack demands my return. "Come home, Vera," my father's voice crackles through the phone. "Your sister needs you." I almost laugh. After everything? But this time, I'm not the weak wolf they left behind. This time, I have fangs of my own. And when wolves hunt you down, you don't run—you rip their throats out first.

„Du bist keine Tochter dieses Rudels“, zischte meine Mutter, ihre goldenen Augen funkelten im Feuerschein. „Wenn du deine Alpha-Schwester nicht unterstützen kannst, dann geh.“ Ich hätte es kommen sehen müssen. Beim Ashveil-Rudel bedeutet Familie alles – außer für mich. Vera Darkthorne, die Enttäuschung. Während meine perfekte Schwester Eris Liebe, Titel und sogar meinen Gefährten Cain erhielt, fand meine Paarungszeremonie ohne einen einzigen Gast statt. Nicht einmal der Mann, der mir ewige Treue geschworen hatte. In jener Nacht floh ich. Inzwischen habe ich mir im Berliner Untergrund-Syndikat der Werwölfe ein neues Leben aufgebaut. Dort zählt nur Stärke. Ich lernte zu kämpfen, zu führen und Wölfe von doppelter Größe mit einem einzigen Blick in die Schranken zu weisen. Doch als die Nachricht eintraf, dass Eris im Sterben lag, forderte das Rudel meine Rückkehr. „Komm nach Hause, Vera“, dröhnte die Stimme meines Vaters aus dem Telefon. „Deine Schwester braucht dich.“ Ich muss fast lachen. Nach allem, was passiert ist? Aber dieses Mal bin ich nicht die schwache Wölfin, die sie damals zurückließen. Dieses Mal habe ich eigene Reißzähne. Und wenn Wölfe dich zur Jagd freigeben, fliehst du nicht – du beißt ihnen zuerst in die Kehle.

“Wendy, are you absolutely sure you want to sign this document?” The Elder’s voice rang in my ears—cold, distant. “Once your bond with Alpha John is dissolved, you’ll lose everything tied to the Blackthorn Pack.” I gripped the pen so hard my knuckles turned white. “Yes. I’m sure.” But just as the tip touched the paper— BANG! The door was kicked open with a violent crash. Alpha John stormed in, eyes bloodshot, and wrapped his hand around my throat. “You dare?!” Blood slipped from the corner of my lips… but I laughed. Because I knew—he would never discover the truth. That his dear uncle, Alpha Vincent, was hiding in my closet at this very moment. And the fresh bite mark on my lower belly… still burned from last night. As if fate was mocking me, my sweet little sister Penny sent a message right then: “Sis, wanna know a secret? That miscarriage you had? John planned it. He made it happen.” Then the TV flickered to life with a breaking live broadcast— There she was, Penny, gently stroking her swollen belly as she smiled into the camera. “John and I are expecting our baby next month,” she announced proudly to the entire Pack. And Alpha John—my “husband”—stood beside her, lovingly kissing her forehead. Like I never existed. Like I wasn’t the Luna written in law. “Miranda,” my wolf snarled in my head, “Rip those traitors apart—now!” But I didn’t. I wiped the blood from my mouth, and dialed the number I hadn’t called in five long years. “Vincent,” I said calmly, “Come get me.”

Madeline Sanders had always been aware that her marriage to Trevon Gibson was merely a contract. When his first love breezed back into town, Trevon wasted no time in asking for a divorce. Clutching the results of her pregnancy test, Madeline was at a loss for words. She was stripped of everything and left to fend for herself. She decided to start anew as an artist and a single mom. However, Trevon couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. He inexplicably suffered pregnancy symptoms. Madeline's morning sickness became his, her cravings for pickles turned into his own, and her labor pains echoed through his body. Afterward, Madeline declared, "The baby will carry the name Sanders!" There stood Trevon, juggling a bottle and a diaper, "Sanders it is! Darling, when do you say I join the Sanders crew?"

During the eight years I spent by Alpha David’s side, I also raised the pup he had with my late sister. At his birthday banquet, I accidentally wore one of her old dresses. Eight-year-old Dorian grabbed a pot of freshly brewed coffee and poured it over me— right in front of the maids. The scalding liquid burned my skin, and when I looked up, I saw the same cold disgust in his eyes that I’d seen so many times in his father’s. “How dare you wear my mother’s dress?” he sneered. “You’ll never replace her. You killed her with that wicked heart of yours!” The coffee seared more than my flesh. It burned straight through my heart. I looked at the child I’d raised for eight long years. I didn’t feel angry. I didn’t even feel sad. Only a quiet kind of exhaustion. “Don’t worry,” I whispered. “I’ll leave tomorrow.”

My wife’s new assistant recently celebrated his birthday, and she splurged on a villa as a gift to him. On the day he moved in, the assistant, Zachary Shaw, bragged on Instagram with a post and captioned: [Bagged myself a sugar mommy, just FYI.] My wife, Ivy Bennett, commented on the post: [Happy birthday, my dear Zacky! 🫰] The photo was Zachary wrapping his arm around my wife’s slender waist, looking incredibly intimate. The work group chat blew up at once. Everyone expressed their envy toward Zachary, singing his praises for being so promising at such a young age. Then, my childhood friend, Autumn Sinclair, tagged me in the group chat and teased, [Love is a blinding green light. Your wife’s cheating on you so hard it glows. Congrats, Julian!] I smiled wryly and stubbed out my cigarette. Slowly, I typed my reply, [Want a house, Autumn? I’ll get you one too, better than her gift to him.]

Talia's life is so unfortunate and miserable. Her obsession with the loved one's death drove her mad. She dreams of escaping her life, but she can't. Talia needs money, so she came to Kosho and started her plan. Here, she met Daniel Henrotin. Daniel gave her a huge amount of money, along with an offer. But why did he do that? There is something fishy about Daniel Henrotin. He is flirtatious and often changes sweethearts. Perhaps Talia would be his next prey.
