Too Hot To Handle Tessa Bailey

My roommate sets me up. She deliberately forces me into a death-trap survival game. As I shut my eyes and wait for death to take me, I realize that the game's bosses can read my mind. "Look at the blood spurting from this baby doll's neck. It's like a fountain of pee." The baby doll is baffled. It's about to launch its ultimate move, but it falters. "Man, look at how this guy is still sweeping the streets when he's so old. Does he not have a pension?" The old man is about to swallow me whole, but he suddenly gets a heart attack. An ambulance takes him away. "Oh, so this is the amusement park's owner. Oh, dear god, he's handsome, albeit a little skinny. I can send him flying with a kick!" The handsome owner's expression darkens. He instantly takes off his shirt to reveal his washboard abs. "Do you still think I'm skinny?"

Matinding galit ang naramdaman ni Detective Marga Castro nang mahuli ang sariling ina na may relasyon sa boyfriend niyang si Dominic Mendoza. Para sa kanya, iyon ang pinakamalaking kataksilan na hindi niya kailanman mapapatawad. Sa isang iglap, gumuho ang mundo niya—ang ina niyang pinagkatiwalaan at ang lalaking minahal niya, parehong nagtraydor sa kanya. Umalis siya sa bahay nang walang direksyon, puno ng poot at hinanakit, hanggang sa isang aksidenteng kinasangkutan niya ang nagbago ng lahat. Nasagasaan siya ng isang lalaking kalaunan ay malalaman niyang si Dr. Oliver Mendoza—ang ama ng ex niya. Isang sikat ngunit kilalang malupit na surgeon. Habang nagpapagaling sa bahay ng doktor, naisip ni Marga ang isang mapanganib na plano. Gagantihan niya si Dominic sa pinakamasakit na paraan—sa pamamagitan ng pag-akit sa sariling ama nito. Alam niyang delikado, alam niyang mali, pero sa isip niya, ito ang hustisyang karapat-dapat sa kaniya. Ngunit habang isinasagawa niya ang plano, natuklasan ni Marga ang panig ni Dr. Mendoza na hindi niya inaasahan. Sa likod ng malamig na anyo at mapait na nakaraan, nakita niya ang isang lalaking marunong magmahal at marunong umintindi—isang lalaking unti-unti niyang minahal sa kabila ng lahat ng kasinungalingan. Paghihiganti ang plano, pag-ibig ang naging kapalit. Ipagpatuloy ba ni Marga ang paghihiganti o ipaglalaban ang pag-ibig na hindi kailanman dapat umusbong? Dahil kapag lumabas ang katotohanan, hindi lang puso niya ang mawawasak—pati ang tanging taong natutunan niyang mahalin.

Kaelan noticed I hadn't filed a single medical or living expense request in the pack’s resource channel for a week. He must have thought I’d finally kicked my greedy human habits. At dinner, he tossed a black card at me. It cut a cold arc through the air, landing beside my plate. “Your father’s treatment for next month. The wolf gene serum, the lab fees—it’s all approved.” His voice was pure Alpha command. An order, not a suggestion. “Bringing you and your father here was a risk. I fought the Elders for you. You are my mate. Stop begging for pack funds like a common stray. It’s a bad look.” He didn’t know my fingers were ice-cold when I picked up the card. The papers to sever our mate bond were already signed. So was my will. The hoodie I wore when I left was a faded thing he’d tossed at me three years ago. No one would believe it. The fated mate of an Alpha who ran a corporate empire… had to send a photo of a $10 painkiller receipt to a Beta assistant for approval. All because he thought a fragile human like me was a leech who couldn’t be trusted with cash. But a week ago, when my father’s lupus caused his organs to fail, I needed $50,000. He needed a dose of pure gene repair serum, synthesized in the pack’s high-tech med-bay. I begged him on my knees. His childhood friend, Seraphina, just laughed. She froze my request, saying she was helping me break my bad habit of “cashing in on my mate status.” Kaelan never knew I endured that humiliation just so my father could stay alive in his top-tier medical lab. Now, my father was dead. The medicine was cut off, and his ashes were already in the ground. I didn’t need to be his obedient little pet anymore.

It's my first day undercover at my future husband's dessert shop, and chaos walks in with fake lashes and two-inch nails. "I want an ice cream. Heated." I paused. "Just checking... You want your ice cream hot?" She gave me a look like I'd failed kindergarten. "Yes. Hot ice cream. Are you slow?" Deep breath. Zen mode. Customer-first service smile. "I'm sorry, ma'am. Ice cream has to stay frozen, or it just turns into—well... milk. If you want something warm, we have hot tea or coffee." "I'm pregnant!" she screeched. "Pregnant women crave weird things! Plus, my doctor said I can't eat anything cold! Are you trying to kill my baby and me? Is that what this is?!" People started turning their heads. Fantastic. A whole audience. I kept my voice low. "Ma'am, I can refund you." She suddenly smacked the counter, knocking the scanner sideways. Her nails shot past my face like tiny knives. "What kind of attitude is that?! A pathetic cashier talking back to me? I'll call my husband and get you fired!" Then, she leaned in like she was about to reveal a royal bloodline. "Guess what? I'm the boss's wife." I blinked. If that was true, I really needed to stop thinking about helping my boyfriend to open 3,000 franchise stores.
