BOOK 1 "When I finally take you Seraphina, it will not be vanilla. You will beg, you will claw at my skin, and lastly your heart..... it'll cease to beat for you, and just for me." His fingers curled around her wrist, guiding her hands to caress the sides of his face. "Don't you want it?" Her heart pounded against her chest, She couldn't even fathom the word, no. _____ In a world ruled by four supernatural factions, Lucian Valemont, the last pure blooded Lycan, reigns with ruthless power and a heart forged in frost. Seraphina Noir, the last of the fire-born witches, is delivered to his feet in chains, branded a traitor, stripped of her magic, and burning with vengeance. She blames him for everything that had gone wrong. While, He sees her as a threat he should eliminate. But the moment their eyes meet, fate stirs. She was supposed to be his enemy and he was meant to be her executioner. But a feeling, ancient pulses between them, it is dark, forbidden, and dangerously tempting. What began with chains and hatred sparks into obsession. And what should have ended in blood.....ignites into fire. One that can't help but consume them.

His eyes darkened as he rose them to me. “You won't be able to escape me now, Maeve,” he said, the fire in my veins trembling. “There’s no out. You fucking chose this, so you’re going to be a good girl and fucking take it.” Maeve, a young lawyer, tries to start a new life after having her obsessive and psycho-ex-boyfriend under restriction, but her life takes a more dark turn when she accepts a proposal— a new dangerous obsession burns, and is caught up in a storm of deceit. TRIGGER WARNINGS

Sous l'Habit, la Fièvre Sœur Clara a toujours vécu dans l'ombre des murs du couvent Saint-Raphaël. Dévouée à sa foi, elle a fait vœu de chasteté, mais une soif d'absolu brûle en elle, un désir qu’elle n’a jamais osé nommer. Lorsqu’elle est envoyée en mission pour assister les malades d’un hospice isolé, elle ignore qu’elle vient de poser le pied à Poudain-Bassé, un lieu dont les murmures parlent d'interdits et de damnation. C'est là qu'elle rencontre Raphaël, un homme dont l’aura est une promesse de péché. Il est tout ce qu’elle a fui : la chair, l’arrogance, la tentation incarnée. Lui, amusé par cette nonne trop fière, s’amuse à la provoquer. Mais sous la soutane, il perçoit autre chose. Une femme en lutte, un brasier caché sous le marbre de la dévotion. Les jours passent, et ce qui n’était qu’un affrontement de principes devient un jeu dangereux. Chaque regard échangé, chaque frôlement accidentel les consume un peu plus. Clara tente de résister, priant avec plus de ferveur, mais la voix de Raphaël résonne dans son esprit plus fort que celle de Dieu. Et quand enfin il ose briser la dernière barrière, lorsqu’il murmure à son oreille que le ciel n’a jamais brûlé aussi fort qu’entre ses bras, elle vacille. Céder, c’est trahir sa foi. Résister, c’est trahir son propre cœur. Mais dans ce lieu oublié du monde, où les âmes perdues se cherchent, où le bien et le mal s’entrelacent, une seule vérité demeure : il n’y a pas de salut sans passion, et pas d’amour sans damnation.

J’ai reçu une vidéo pornographique. « Tu aimes ça ? » L’homme qui parle dans la vidéo est mon mari, Mark, que je n’ai pas vu depuis plusieurs mois. Il est nu et sa chemise et son pantalon sont éparpillés sur le sol. Il est en train de faire l’amour avec une femme dont je ne peux pas voir le visage. Les seins dodus et ronds de cette femme rebondissent vigoureusement. Je peux clairement entendre les bruits de claques dans la vidéo, mêlés à des gémissements et des grognements de luxure. « Oui, oui, baise-moi fort, chéri », hurle la femme avec extase. « Vilaine fille ! » Mark se lève et la retourne, lui claquant les fesses tout en parlant. « Mets ton cul en l’air ! » La femme glousse, se retourne, balance ses fesses et s’agenouille sur le lit. J’ai l’impression que quelqu’un m’a jeté un seau d’eau glacée sur la tête. Ce qui est déjà mauvais, c’est que mon mari a une liaison, mais ce qui est pire, c’est que l’autre femme est ma propre sœur, Bella. *** « Je veux divorcer d’avec toi, Mark », j’ai répété au cas où il ne m’aurait pas entendue la première fois, bien que je sache qu’il m’avait clairement entendue. Il me regardait avec une mine renfrognée avant de répondre froidement : « Ce n’est pas à toi d’en décider ! Je suis très occupé, ne perds pas mon temps avec des choses aussi ennuyeuses, n’essaie pas d’attirer mon attention ! » La dernière chose que j’allais faire était de discuter ou de me quereller avec lui. « Je demanderai à l’avocat de t’envoyer le contrat de divorce », c’est tout ce que j’ai dit, aussi calmement que possible. Il n’a même pas dit un autre mot après cela et il est simplement passé par la porte devant laquelle il se tenait, la claquant durement derrière lui. Mes yeux se sont attardés un peu distraitement sur la poignée de la porte avant que je n’enlève l’anneau de mariage de mon doigt et que je ne le pose sur la table.

While preparing for the SATs at the library, my brother is accidentally shot and injured, causing him to bleed profusely. I pass by this scene but turn a blind eye and quicken my pace to leave. This is because in my previous life, when I saw him, I rushed him to the hospital in a panic. He had intracranial hemorrhaging, and he urgently needed surgery. I quickly called my mom, the top neurosurgeon in the city, begging her to come to the hospital as soon as possible. However, she thought I was jealous that she had taken my adopted sister to the beach instead of spending time with me. She also believed I had fabricated the story about my brother's injury, and thus refused to return. By the time my dad and the rest of the family hurried to the hospital, it was too late for rescue efforts—my brother had passed away. The whole family blamed me for his death. They were convinced that I had deliberately misled my mom and delayed his critical treatment. When my mom returned from out of town, she lost her composure and pushed me down the stairs, watching coldly as I bled to death. After opening my eyes again, I had returned to the day my brother was shot at the library.
