The Sword And The Dress

Akala ni Evan ay tama ang desisyon niyang pakasalan ang lalaking pinapangarap niya---hanggang sa ang desisyong iyon ay nauwi sa isang bangungot. Naipit siya sa isang loveless marriage, muntik makunan ng dinadalang sanggol, at sa huli’y nakulong pa ng limang taon. Hindi naman siya masamang tao, ngunit hindi niya alam kung bakit naging ganito ang takbo ng buhay niya. Ngunit tila may ibang plano ang tadhana, dahil ang dinadala pala niya ay hindi kay Kenneth. Isang pagkakamaling hindi sperm cell ng asawa ang naiturok sa kaniya sa ospital. Dahil sa takot, inilayo niya ang anak kay Kenneth at iniwan ang pangangalaga nito sa isang kaibigan. Paglaya ni Evan, nalaman niyang ang malamig at tahimik na tiyuhing si Kevin ay nagkaroon ng anak habang siya’y nasa kulungan. Pero ang mas ikinagulat niya ay nang makaramdam ng kakaibang koneksyon sa bata. Mas lalo siyang naguluhan nang hindi na niya mahanap ang kaibigang pinag-iwanan sa sariling anak. "Ella, kapag nahanap mo ang file ng doktor na iyon para sa akin, I will divorce Kenneth immediately. Ang kailangan ko lang ay mahanap ang taong inaasam ko buong buhay ko sa kulungan, hindi ako narito para makipag-agawan sa'yo sa asawa ko."

When Sadie was deemed the bad seed of her pack, even by her father, she didn't think she would find any place where she belonged. Until she ran away and joined the army. The werewolf army where she found more than she could have ever bargained for. Not one mate, but several mates.

After I became pregnant, my figure changed, and my face grew puffy. My fiancé began to treat me with a subtle, almost imperceptible sense of disdain. When the baby was five months along, it happened to be Valentine's Day. That day, he finally agreed to take our wedding photos, something I'd been hoping for. But just as we arrived at the bridal studio, his phone rang. "Mike, I just got back to the country. My friends are hosting a gathering, and everyone's bringing their boyfriends. Could you come and pretend to be mine?" It was a few short sentences, yet it completely altered the expression on his face. He turned abruptly, stepping out of the studio with a look of urgency. "Lucy's back. I have to go see her," he said. Hearing those words, a fire of rage ignited inside me, one I couldn't suppress. "For her? You're going to leave me here alone?" I demanded. "Do you even know how long I've been looking forward to today? It's Valentine's Day, and instead of staying with me, you're going to be with her?" His impatience flared visibly as I stood my ground. Without a word, his hand pushed me aside, and he strode out of the shop. "We can take wedding photos any day. I'm the only one Lucy has in this country. I have to go see her," he said. Then, gripping my wrist with alarming force, he shoved me, sending me sprawling to the floor. Without a backward glance, he got into his car and drove off. I felt a sudden, wet heat flowing from my lower abdomen. Pain surged through my stomach, sharp and unbearable, as my consciousness started to fade. A wave of despair and terror consumed me. Someone. Anyone. Please save my baby.

"Finders keepers," Deangelo growled, his voice all sharp edges. "I found her first, commoners, she belongs to me. The only reason she's still breathing is because I saved her from that fucking fire." Romano snorted, pushing his way further inside. "You think you can just claim her like that? She's not a damn trophy, Scorpion." Fernando gave a series of hand gestures in sign language. Deangelo translated, "You may have found her, but that does not make her yours. We have a stake here, Papi." Vincenzo's voice cut like a knife through the tension. "This isn't some playground game. She's a person, not a prize to be fought over?" As their voices rose, they suddenly fell silent, snapping their eyes to Rosita. She was rushing towards the door. DeAngelo's eyes narrowed as he took a step towards her. "Little peasant, don't even think about it." **** Rosita's life has been anything but ordinary. Homeschooled and sheltered by her overprotective father after a near-fatal stalking incident, she dreams of escaping to college and pursuing her passion for music. But her father's plans to enroll her in an online university leave her feeling trapped and desperate. On the day, she finally decides to away, a fire overtakes their home, trapping her in her room. Just when she thinks all hope is lost, her metal door is broken down—not by her father, but by Deangelo Luis Valladares, the most-feared mafia drug lord in the whole of Mexico. With an intriguing, sinister smile, he extends his hand to Rosita through the smoke-filled room. Will Rosita take his hand and let him save her, or will she be taken by force? Can a breathtaking beauty like Rosita survive in a world ruled by mafia dons who live like kings and control Mexico City?

She fought to catch her breath as she took in her mates. They looked satisfied and —fuck if she didn't feel satisfied. “I can't believe I did that.” She whispered softly to herself but they heard her. “Oh, that was just the beginning, dolcezza.
