Tris Outfit Divergent

In the second year after dropping out of school, I decide to cosplay as a dancer and stage a chance encounter with my husband, Don Vincenzo Rossi, in order to give him a surprise. However, I happen to run into my old classmates in the club. When they see me pole dancing in a skimpy outfit, they burst into laughter immediately. Tatiana Lazzari, the one who's throwing the party and was my former bully at school, mocks me for being a lowly, slutty bitch. My ex-boyfriend, Cristian Paleno, who had cheated on me with Tatiana back then, has his brows drawn into a tight frown. He seems to feel sorry for me. "If you didn't insist on breaking up with me back then, Aria, you wouldn't have gotten reduced to having to work as a stripper." In order to spice up the party, they drag me into their private room and force me to strip in front of them. When I reject them, they dump all sorts of alcohol and beverages onto my exposed skin and my thin, skimpy clothes. Then, they force me to kneel between Cristian's legs in submission. As Cristian leans in close to my ear, I can see the lust brimming in his eyes. "Come back to me, Aria. Otherwise, you can only remain as a horny bitch for the rest of your life." Out of sheer jealousy and rage, Tatiana kicks me in the gut right away. That's when Vincenzo hurries to my side and scoops me into his arms. By then, I'm in so much pain that I'm all curled up. He then glares at everyone else, whose faces have gone white from terror. "How dare you harm my wife and our unborn child! You can forget about leaving this room today!"

Alexander Blackwood est tout ce que le monde admire : un jeune PDG milliardaire, brillant, charismatique, respecté. Mais derrière l’image parfaite se cache un homme brisé, père célibataire d’une petite fille de trois ans, Lina, qu’il élève seul depuis la mort de sa femme. Son cœur est verrouillé, son quotidien réglé, ses émotions soigneusement maîtrisées. Élise, elle, mène une vie simple. Douce, discrète, profondément humaine, elle avance sans faire de bruit, entourée de sa meilleure amie Camille. Elle ne croit pas aux contes de fées ni aux hommes inaccessibles. Elle croit aux choses vraies… même si elle a appris à se protéger. Une nuit, dans une boîte de nuit, leurs regards se croisent. Une attirance fulgurante, instinctive. Une nuit hors du temps. Puis le silence. Ils se quittent sans promesse, persuadés que cette parenthèse restera sans lendemain. Jusqu’au jour où Alexander cherche une babysitter vivant chez lui pour s’occuper de sa fille. Et que la porte s’ouvre sur Élise. Le choc est brutal. Les souvenirs brûlants. Les regards lourds de non-dits. Ils jurent de rester professionnels. De garder leurs distances. Mais la proximité quotidienne, les gestes anodins, ravivent ce qu’ils refusent de nommer. Un premier baiser, trop tôt, trop intense, les fait reculer. La gêne s’installe. La distance aussi. Pourtant, entre eux, le désir et l’attachement grandissent. Baisers furtifs, jalousies silencieuses, gestes protecteurs jamais expliqués… Ils se mentent en parlant d’attirance, refusant de reconnaître l’évidence. Au milieu du chaos, alors que des personnes extérieures tentent de briser leur équilibre — une ex ambitieuse, des enjeux professionnels, des manipulations — Alexander comprend enfin : ce qu’il ressent n’est pas une faiblesse. C’est de l’amour. Alors Alexander devra choisir : continuer à se cacher… ou aimer sans retenue.

Every bonding anniversary, Shawn would bring home a new human girl from the outside—always under the lovely pretense of letting me mentor her on how to serve an Alpha. On our seventh anniversary, he brought back a nightclub girl dressed in a Princess Snow White outfit—cheap satin trembling under the chandelier's light. “She doesn’t have anything appropriate for an occasion like this,” he said casually. “Let her borrow your bonding dress. And the jewelry I gave you last time. As for shoes—what you're wearing now will do.” Then he added, with a trace of irony, “She’s just a young human girl, clueless. Teach her a few things about our world, will you? Especially the part about the bed.” Everyone was waiting for the spectacle—for me to break again, as I always had. And I didn’t disappoint them. I looked at Shawn, my voice steady, and said I wanted a bond-severance. He laughed—short and sharp—and leaned back like he was watching a comedy. “Clara, when are you going to stop with this bond-severance nonsense? I’ve heard it so many times. They’re just human girls, while you are my Luna. How could they ever compare to you?” Then, grinning as if doing me a favor, he added, “Fine. If you really want a bond-severance, I’ll gift you a territory in the south. Consider it a reward for doing your job as my Luna.” The room erupted in laughter. To them, I was ridiculous—greedy, jealous, hysterical. But what they didn’t know was that this was the 365th time I’d asked for a bond-severance. And the first time, I truly meant it. When he found out I wasn’t joking this time, he lost his composure. He searched for me across the world—only after he realized I was no longer where he thought I’d always be.
