The Pale Blue Dot

Marie Samantha Fortalejo was the average girl, with steady job as waitress and sharing an apartment with her best friend Linda, and living in Manhattan, New York. Iñigo Callan was a powerful cold man, then meant business when it comes to his powerful company. Iñigo never had a time for girls nor did he never want to get involved in one. But when her mother throws an ice ball party at his building, Samantha stumbled in a wearing blue beautiful dress. Iñigo couldn't help but feel captivated by the beautiful woman behind the mask.

She felt like a caged bird. A bird that was meant to fly the high, blue skies, but was trapped like a prized possession for her master to impress others with. Ava is the daughter of a very powerful man in the underworld. Her blood, her family name makes her a tool for others to gain more power. Greedy men want her for her name, not for who she is. Being locked up all her life in her father's house makes her naïve and ignorant of the outside world. Meaning the greedy men have an easy game to play.

Dans les bas-fonds d'une ville rongée par la corruption et la violence, Aleksandr Volkov, un assassin sadique à l’humour mordant, règne sur le crime avec une précision chirurgicale. Il aime tuer, il aime le chaos, et il aime surtout voir ses ennemis supplier. Mais sa routine macabre bascule lorsqu'il croise Eden Hale, une jeune femme trop belle pour être innocente, trop intrépide pour être raisonnable… et dotée d’un étrange pouvoir : son sang attire les gens comme un aimant. Littéralement. Quand Eden échappe miraculeusement à une tentative d’enlèvement, Aleksandr, intrigué par cette anomalie vivante, décide de la garder sous sa coupe. Mais ce qu’il ne sait pas, c’est qu’Eden n’est pas qu’une victime : c’est une emmerdeuse de premier ordre, capable de tenir tête à un monstre comme lui avec un sourire insolent. Entre bastons spectaculaires, quiproquos hilarants et une tension électrique qui menace d’exploser à chaque regard, Aleksandr et Eden se retrouvent pris dans un tourbillon de violence, de passion et de situations absurdes. Car si son sang attire les gens, c’est Aleksandr qui, malgré lui, est irrésistiblement attiré par elle. Mais peut-on vraiment aimer un homme qui prend un peu trop son pied en assassinant ses adversaires ? Et peut-on survivre quand on est une bombe à retardement en cavale avec le pire psychopathe de la ville ? Une chose est sûre : ça va saigner… et ça va faire rire.

"Prometo elegirte, protegerte y amarte hasta la última página de nuestra historia." ~Nico~ Originally arranged to be married, Alinnyta Carmi Avilla's world comes crashing down when her first love and soon-to-be husband Azul 'Blue' Dela Vega falls in love with another girl. But when she meets Niccolo Alejandro – the man who has the same vibes as hers, she learns how to trust and love again. Can she finally get the happy ending she's been longing for? Or accept that a happy ending does not truly exist?

I met a boy when he was eight years old. I never believed that the boy with the incredible blue eyes would be my future husband. We grew up and promised to have a life together, which happened. There was nothing to predict that something terrible would happen on my wedding day. Heartbroken, I now find myself at a crossroads. Should I continue with the wedding, respecting our prenuptial agreement? Should I leave him at the altar for having damaged our bond and trust as a couple? And what’s worse. Should I escape from him with a secret that will bind us together for life?

"It hurts…" Joanna Horton clutched her swollen belly in agony, a deep, wrenching pain twisting through her that words couldn't describe. Terror filled her voice as she cried out, "It hurts so bad… Theo… please, save our baby…" But outside, there was only silence—except for the soft, steady sounds of prayers and chanting from the next room. That was where her monk husband, Theo Brook, was, praying for the soul of his long-dead first love. Ever since Sharon Cooper jumped off that building, Theo had been grief-stricken. He left everything behind and became a monk, never missing a single night of chanting for her. People said he had the heart of a saint, that he was devoted and had never stopped loving her. But they didn't know that just on the other side of that wall was Joanna—his lawfully wedded wife, the one he had once married in a grand ceremony. Joanna was burning up with fever, her eyes barely open, her face pale and tired. A few days ago, she had made Theo angry. Since then, no matter how much she cried out in pain, he ignored her. Another sharp wave of pain hit, and suddenly, a rush of blood spilled from between her legs. The baby inside her stopped moving. She knew then—her child was gone.

My fated mate left the pack, heartbroken, after I rejected him. Seven years later, he returned with his new mate-to-be. By then, the pack doctor had given me my final diagnosis. "Extreme wolf spirit decay." It was irreversible. My wolf would be gone within months. My life was at its end. My fated mate, Alpha Roric, now the most powerful Alpha in North America, smirked when he saw me. I was pale and thin, leaning on my sister for support. "Ayla. Seven years, and you're too weak to even stand straight? When you rejected me, didn't you say that beta was a better match? Where is he now?" His voice dripped with hate. I just tugged on the sleeves of my coat, hiding the way my fingers trembled. A tell-tale sign of my power slipping away. "It's just a cold." Roric's gaze swept over me like ice. "In that case, you should come to my Mating Ceremony with Cressida. I'll save you the best seat." I just smiled. "I can't. I'll be going somewhere far away soon. I'm sorry." Then, pulling my sister with me, I turned and melted into the shadows.

I was feeding my seven-year-old daughter, Lucy Langer, when Robert Langer crashed through the front door, reeking of alcohol. His shirt collar hung askew, and red marks blazed across his neck. "Audrey," he said hoarsely, "someone spiked my drink at the charity gala. But don't worry. I've already had my lawyer handle it." I nodded. After so many years of marriage, I knew he only had eyes for me and our daughter. He never strayed. Or so I believed… until eight months later. While Robert was away on a business trip, his cruise ship caught fire. The news dominated every channel. Clutching a sobbing Lucy, I rushed to the hospital, only to find him swathed in bandages, standing outside the maternity ward. "Becca is pregnant," he murmured. "It was that night at the gala… I didn't think it would happen from just once…" He gulped. "When the fire spread, she saved me. But she… got trapped herself." A newborn's wail pierced the corridor as the delivery room doors opened. Becca White was wheeled out, looking pale and exhausted. She clutched my sleeve and pleaded desperately, "Audrey… my babies can't grow up without a father…"

There are two dogs who will forever revolve around Leonardo Zeller. The first one is his pet dog. The second one is me, his devoted lapdog. But I've successfully risen to the ranks as his fiancee. On the day before our wedding, Leonardo gets into an accident from car racing for the sake of his first love, Renee White. I rush over to the hospital immediately, but I don't see the scar that's supposed to adorn his chest. My complexion goes insanely pale out of panic. "Where did the scar from his heart surgery go?" "Hey! Don't you dare jinx my son! Since when did he go through such a cursed surgery?" Suddenly, I realize that I've gotten the wrong person this whole time for three years. On the day Leonardo gets discharged, he tells me that he regrets proposing to me and that he wants to call off the wedding just to be with Renee. Everyone wants to see me break down and humiliate myself by showing my hysterical side. But I merely reply, "Okay." What they don't know is that I've never loved Leonardo before. After all, the man I love is already dead a few years ago.
