V Birthday

The cold breeze in my face, clinging tightly to my bare arms. My arms wrapped around my torso in an attempt to keep me warm. Tears streaming down my face as memories of Harry's cruel betrayal flood my mind. Of all days, he chose my birthday to hurt me. My red pumps creating a gentle click sound with every contact it made with the tarred road. Creating the only sound the night breeze brings to my ears. Asides my sobs and the distant barks of the neighborhood dogs. My third sense is sudden activated as I sense I'm being followed. I smell danger. Walking alone on such desolate streets doesn't seem like the best idea I could have come up with. I wasn't thinking straight when I made that choice. I should have called my driver to come get me!. This creepy feeling becomes more intense and I decide to do the one thing I know I'm good at; run!. I throw my purse and phone away as I begin to run in frenzy I feel something hot on my trail, when I look back, all I see is dark fog. The more reason to run faster. The road fairly lit by moonlight, my heart in my mouth and prayers of help and mercy escaping my lips. Finally, I hear music playing from loud speakers. I'm close to civilization!. I keep running frantically.... Tales of missing children are considered a fallacy till teenage Sonia goes missing... Follow Sonia on her desperate quest to break free... And bring the truth to light

— «Tu aurais dû fuir, Mira, je ne suis pas celui que tu crois. » Et sans me laisser le temps de réagir, il se penche sur moi et m’embrasse. Pas doucement, pas tendrement non plus, mais avec cette intensité brute et affamée qu’il contient… comme s’il attendait ce moment depuis une éternité, comme si retenir ce désir l’avait torturé. Il grogne contre mes lèvres, ses doigts s’enfoncent un peu plus dans ma nuque, son autre main descend, glisse le long de mon corps et attrape ma hanche avec force… Elle, c’est Mira, bientôt vingt ans : une petite humaine ordinaire, avec des rêves plein la tête, qui s’apprêtait simplement à rejoindre ses grands-parents dans la réserve d’Eyden-Stood. Un lieu isolé, paisible, presque figé hors du temps. Elle pensait y trouver du calme, un peu de répit, mais cette semaine va changer toute sa vie. Quand la lune est devenue rouge, quand elle s’est mise à briller haut dans le ciel, et que les loups ont hurlé à l’unisson. C’est cette nuit-là qu’elle a compris que les loups-garous n’existaient pas que dans les contes de fées. Mais ce n’était que le début… Ce que Mira va découvrir par la suite dépassera tout ce qu’elle aurait pu imaginer. Des secrets enfouis, mais aussi des vérités que personne n’ose prononcer, et qui vont changer tout ce qu’elle était, mais aussi, tout ce qu’elle pensait ne jamais être.

"Are you going to kill me too?" Olivia muttered weakly. "No little pet, I have other plans for you," the deep voice replied.

_Vous… vous avez bien dit que vous me payeriez 1000 euros pour une heure, c’est ça ? Demanda-t-elle _Oui Lisa, je confirme que c’est bien ce que j’ai dit, répondit-il avec un grand sourire. Lisa s’allongea sur le matelas, et le deuxième homme s’approcha d’elle. Elle se dit qu’elle devrait se méfier, mais étrangement, le bel inconnu lui inspirait confiance. _ Maintenant, il va falloir vous déshabiller, dit-il de sa voix douce et chaude. L’adolescente de 18 ans savait qu’elle était venue pour cela, mais elle hésita tout de même un instant. Elle ne s’était jamais déshabillée devant des hommes auparavant ; en vérité, elle était vierge. _Et… Vous promettez que vous n’essayerez pas de me faire l’amour ? demanda encore Allyssa tout en baissant les bretelles de son débardeur. Elle ne portait pas de soutien-gorge, et elle vit les yeux des deux hommes d’affaires scintiller dans l’obscurité lorsqu’elle révéla ses beaux seins semblables à des melons bien mûrs. _Je vous le garantis, dit le plus âgé des deux. Mon associé et moi-même avons des postes à haute responsabilité. Nous souhaitons éviter tout scandale, et nous ne désirons pas tromper nos épouses en couchant avec d’autres femmes. Tout ce que nous voulons, c’est goûter au sexe d’une jolie adolescente de 18 ans comme vous. Lisa frissonna à nouveau en entendant ses paroles. Elle ignorait si elle avait peur, ou bien si elle commençait à être excitée. Elle retira alors son jean, puis son string en dentelle blanche, et elle s’allongea alors en serrant les dents. Le plus âgé des deux hommes s’approcha près d’elle, puis il s’agenouilla à ses côtés.

After three years of dating Nathan Foster, I thought I knew where we were headed. But he never proposed. Instead, he fell in love at first sight with my stepsister. His pursuit of her was bold and relentless, leaving no room for doubt. This time, I didn’t break down or wait around, hoping he’d return like before. I made a clean break. I threw away every gift he had given me, shredded the wedding dress I once secretly bought, and on his birthday, I left Riverdale behind. Just as I was about to board my flight, Nathan messaged me: “Where are you? Everyone’s waiting for you.” I smiled, didn’t bother replying, and blocked him on every channel. He had no idea that, two weeks earlier, I had accepted the proposal of my college senior, Eustace Cooper. When the plane landed in my new city, Eustace and I were ready to begin a new chapter of our lives together—as husband and wife.
