The Predator's Fiancee 소설 & 이야기

I found out by a slip of the tongue by Shikari. Now she is half Phoenix and half vampire and she didn’t even tell me, not that I have a right to be upset. I should have been there. To make things worse, I find out the fates have given her a mate, Xei. She, of course, is denying the bond. I know it’s only a matter of time until she gives into it though. No one can disobey what the fates have planned, not even the stubborn fiery blonde phoenix, heir to the Concealed Bravata.

It seemed Fedora shared the same sentiment by when we’ll get married we will have to share things such as our room, my bed, and my office. "And finally," she concluded, her gaze unwavering, "my last condition is that I’d like to continue my work as a healer. I had to stop my work due to increasing rogue attacks but now I want to continue doing it.” I couldn't help but admire her determination. Fedora was willing to put aside her personal dislikes for the greater good of our pack. It was a quality I hadn't expected to find in her. As her words hung in the air, I pondered the proposal. Fedora's plan had its merits, and I couldn't deny the logic behind her reasoning. The idea of a temporary mar

I hope someday in the future she can forgive me, but for now, I'm going to hold her. Mark her my wolf orders. A knock has me almost growling as I ease Jasmine off my body to go answer. The old lady is there with food and I smile big at her. "Well, my heavens, aren't you a sight for these old eyes?" she giggles. "Hi Mrs. Fern, I'm Kaiden. I'm Jasmine's fiancee",she gasps loud. "Thank heaven you're here. I've been trying to feed that poor thing, but she can't keep much down. She is always working on her computer.

I walked out alone. There were three people waiting for me out there. Antonio Falcone, the heir to the rival family, was smiling like he meant every lie. Markus Taini, the "Consigliere" who poisoned me, was smug with confidence. Caterina Rossi, Leonardo's mother, was shooting daggers at me with her eyes. "What a shame, Vittoria," Antonio said, sliding a refrigerated briefcase toward me. "The antidote's inside. Sign the transfer papers, and you might live another year."

We were close in part because she was one of the few she-wolves who did not lust after Xander; she was too obsessed with her neighbor and long-term boyfriend, David. “Oh my Goddess, Andie. It’s me, Piper.” “PIPER!!!!!!” she squeals. “Oh my gosh. I have missed you so much!!!! How are you doing? Where are you? How is life? Have you met your mate? Any pups?” “Slow down, Andie,” I laugh. “First, tell me how you are doing? How is David?” “David is great. We just found out three months ago that we are fated mates, and… I’m PREGNANT!!!!”

But the way she looked at me tonight, the way she held onto me, pressed herself against me—it was different. Was she finally giving in? Was she finally starting to want this as much as I did? I let my fingers slide down her waist, feeling the warmth of her skin through the silky fabric of her dress. My eyes searched hers, but all I saw was confidence, playfulness. She wasn’t running anymore. And I wasn’t about to let her go. Turning to the room, I tightened my grip on her waist and announced, "Everyone, meet my fiancée, Scarlet. The future Luna of this pack."

"President Gu." "What is it?" "The chairman's announcement last night has already spread through the company." Gu Yichen didn't look up. "I expected it." "The directors are making guesses." "About my fiancée?" "...Yes." "They've mentioned Miss Su." "They've mentioned several daughters from influential families." One elderly director had even suggested arranging introductions immediately. Gu Yichen closed the file. "I have no interest in blind dates." Chen Wei smiled awkwardly. "I assumed as much." "Unfortunately..."

“When Ava told me she made a new friend, I didn’t pay attention to it. I mean, she had her life to give and her career to pursue and I wasn’t going to be a stumbling block to her successes but the first time I saw Jake, I knew he was bad news.” “How could you tell?” Damian asked. “Come on, man. I’ve gone through this same sequence countless times over the years. I know predators when I see one because I once was one. I tried warning Ava about her new friend but we ended up fighting him so I let it go but now? I wish I didn’t.”

She couldn’t afford to. The meeting was worse. Every director stared at her like she was lying. But she said what Adriano told her to say. She told them he was now her fiancé. She told them he would take charge until Max was old enough. Her voice almost broke, but she didn’t let it. When the meeting was finally over, she stepped outside, exhausted and drained. Adriano walked beside her, scanning the area like he expected trouble. She didn’t understand why—until she heard a sharp sound.

Marco's voice was low, controlled, but I could hear the tension beneath. "I assume you've shown her to her room," I replied, ignoring his question. "Yes, and she's currently having a minor breakdown in your guest bathroom, trying very hard not to make any noise." His tone was accusatory. "Want to explain why you've brought home a crying woman who looks like she's been through hell?" I sighed, rubbing the bridge of my nose. "She's going to be my fiancée." Silence, then: "Have you lost your fucking mind?"
