When I was seventeen, Cesare Cassano, the youngest son of the Cassano Family, saw me once—and that was it. He was hooked. At nineteen, he fought his way up and became the Don's chosen successor. At twenty-one, in front of the whole city, I said yes to Cesare's over-the-top proposal. Overnight, I became the woman every girl in Naples envied. Everybody knew the Cassano Don would do anything for me—anything—just to see me smile. And then three days later, at the billion-dollar wedding Cesare threw for me, livestreamed to the whole world, I fell off a cliff. Just like that, I was dead. Gone without a trace.

When my Alpha mate, Logan noticed I hadn't submitted a single expense request in three days, he reached out to me on his own for the first time ever. "Baby, I've already approved the next phase of your wolf's healing. See? As long as you learn to behave, there's nothing I won't give you." His tone was still so affectionate, as if he were truly a good Alpha, worried sick over his mate. But he didn't know that as his "Baby" flashed across my phone screen, I had already finished drafting the agreement to sever our mate bond. Before I left, the only thing I could take with me was the old T-shirt I had worn when he marked me. No one would ever believe that the beloved Luna of the Blackmoon Pack, in the three years since our bonding ceremony, couldn't even scrape together five decent dresses of her own. Every household expense I incurred had to be approved by the Luna's seal, the very symbol of my power. "Sienna, managing the books is too tiring. It will wear you out." "Just let Chloe handle the tedious work with the seal. All you have to do is be beautiful, be my perfect Luna." And so, the Luna's seal, which should have been mine, became something I had to beg for from Chloe, the Alpha's secretary who was supposedly "handling the tedious work for me." Three days ago, my wolf was on the verge of collapsing. I cried and begged him for the two hundred thousand needed for an emergency intervention. But Chloe deliberately withheld the seal, delaying approval by claiming improper procedure. Finally, my already fractured wolf went completely silent in the depths of my soul. And with that, I was done with this Alpha, too.

On my eighteenth birthday, the boy I'd secretly loved for years kissed me first. After a night of passion, I traced the marks on my skin and thought it was all a dream. I was ready to make it official. But the next day, my nude photos were plastered across the entire school. When I confronted him, Damien Ashford laughed with bloodshot eyes: "Blame your mother. If she hadn't turned a blind eye while those girls destroyed Rosalie, Rosalie would never have killed herself." "Now let's see — when her own daughter becomes the school whore, will she still just sit back and watch?" That was the moment I understood. Every tender word from the night before had been a weapon. In the end, my mother slapped me hard across the face and dragged me away. Years later, we met again. He had become the Don — the most powerful man in the underworld. And I was a dealer in his brand-new casino. He offered me up like a chip for other men's amusement, then claimed me himself after the game — the winner taking his prize. I didn't resist. Didn't struggle. Obedient as a puppet. But he froze. His eyes locked onto the stretch mark across my stomach.

Ophelia loved Dylan, the Alpha of the pack, with all her heart—but to him, she was merely a plaything, a lowly maid unworthy of his regard.

Um die Treue meines Jugendfreundes Alexander Guderian zu testen, verabreichte ihm meine Stiefschwester Johanna Wagner ein starkes Aphrodisiakum. Dann stieß sie mich in sein Zimmer. Ich konnte nicht mit ansehen, wie Alexander so litt. Also war ich bereitwillig sein Gegenmittel. Aus Trotz rannte Johanna von zu Hause weg und heiratete schließlich einen brutalen Mafiaboss. Nachdem ich schwanger geworden war, wurde Alexander gezwungen, mich zu heiraten, doch von da an hegte er Groll gegen mich. In den zehn langen Jahren unserer Ehe war er zu mir und unserem Sohn immer kalt und abweisend. Doch als wir im Ausland in eine Flutwelle gerieten, brachte er unter Aufbietung aller Kräfte unseren Sohn und mich an Land. Ich konnte seine Hand nicht festhalten. Bevor er im Wasser versank, sah er mich ein letztes, tiefes Mal an und sagte: „Falls alles noch einmal von vorne beginnen könnte ... sei bitte nicht noch einmal mein Gegenmittel.“ Mein Herz fühlte sich an, als würde es zerschnitten. Dann verlor ich das Bewusstsein. Als ich die Augen wieder öffnete, war ich zurück – an dem Tag, an dem Johanna Alexander den starken Liebestrank verabreicht und uns beide in einem Raum eingeschlossen hatte.

She gave him everything, her love, her light, her life. Aurora healed Rowan’s broken soul, stood by him through darkness, and asked for nothing in return. But instead of love, she was met with hatred, indifference, and pain. Rowan’s heart belonged to Vivian, the woman who vanished without a trace, and he blamed Aurora, his fated mate, for her disappearance. His love for one blinded him to the truth of the other. Now Aurora is gone… and Rowan is left with nothing but guilt, madness, and the ghost of the woman who loved him more than life itself. Will he ever forgive himself, or is this his punishment for destroying his own destiny?

Su mano suave me acariciaba los muslos duros como piedra, una y otra vez. Y de vez en cuando frotaba sus meloncitos blancos contra mí: —Amor... juega con tu zorrita. ¿Cómo iba a aguantarme al escuchar eso?...
