What Does Onii Chan Mean

Lenora is the adopted daughter of an alpha family. As a child, she was deeply cherished by the family and showed signs of possibly having a gift, becoming the little princess of the entire pack. But as she grew up, after the alpha family’s biological daughter Eleanor returned, and everything changed. Lenora's talent inexplicably faded, and she couldn’t awaken her inner wolf upon adulthood, becoming the “wolfless” whom people said was “abandoned by the Goddess.” The hypocritical Eleanor, to secure her position, often framed Lenora, causing the alpha family to gradually resent Lenora and favor Eleanor. Lenora's former fiancé, Eric, also leaned toward Eleanor, dissolved his engagement with Lenora, and became ambiguously involved with Eleanor. The once-in-500-years sacrifice ritual is approaching, and without a volunteer, the entire pack may be endangered. The alpha family is frantic. Meanwhile, after being repeatedly framed by Eleanor, Lenora is deeply hurt by her once-loving family. Upon learning that, having come of age, she will be expelled from the pack like other wolfless, she chooses to volunteer as the sacrificial offering and will walk toward death in a month—to make one last contribution to the family she once loved most. But the alpha family doesn’t know about her choice; the identity of the sacrifice is strictly confidential. While they’re immensely grateful to the anonymous volunteer, they continue to despise and insult her, misinterpreting her recent solitary actions as betrayal. During this period, she suffers repeated emotional and physical harm. The family has several near-misses where they might discover her identity as the sacrifice, but misunderstandings prevent it each time. Meanwhile, after Lenora jumps, she slumbers for a long time. But at the bottom of the cliff, what lives there isn’t the so-called darkness, but a quirky monster (Mikael)...

La famille mafieuse Rossi suivait une règle ancestrale. Avant son mariage, l’héritier avait droit, une fois par an, à un tirage au sort. S’il tombait sur un lot favorable, il pouvait choisir lui-même son épouse et échapper à un mariage arrangé. Pendant cinq années de suite, Dante Rossi a tiré un lot défavorable, et moi, qui étais avec lui depuis sept ans, je n’ai jamais réussi à l’épouser. Cette année, c’était la sixième fois. J’ai surpris une conversation entre lui et Marco Valentino, le sous-chef. « Monsieur Rossi, vous avez encore tiré un lot favorable. » La voix de Dante portait une froideur que je ne lui avais jamais entendue. « Comme d’habitude, changez-le en lot défavorable. » Marco a hésité, puis a essayé de le raisonner. « Monsieur Rossi, cela fait déjà cinq ans que vous le changez. Vous n’avez pas peur que Celia vous quitte ? Celia est la plus belle femme de Nopales. La moitié des hommes de la ville lui courent après. » Dante a répondu avec une certitude absolue : « Elle ne le fera pas. Celia m’aime trop. Elle n’épousera personne d’autre. » « Il y a des années, le père de Livia est mort en me sauvant la vie. Son dernier souhait était que je reste à ses côtés pendant cinq ans. Quand cette année sera terminée, j’offrirai à Celia un mariage grandiose en compensation. » Le dernier espoir qui me restait s’est éteint en entendant ces mots. Dante ne savait sans doute pas que la famille Rossi avait encore une autre règle ancestrale. Si l’héritier échouait à tirer un lot favorable six fois de suite, il perdait le droit de choisir lui-même sa femme. Et moi, j’allais bientôt épouser quelqu’un d’autre.

When her first love died, my wife jumped from the cruise ship to end her life on our honeymoon. That was when I realized she had never let go of Tyler. Reborn back to our teenage years, she didn’t hesitate to shake off my hand and walk straight toward her first love. I watched them leave together, then turned away. From that moment on, our lives became two parallel lines that would never cross. Ten years later, we meet again at a lavish gala in Rivendell. She was now the rising star of high society, proudly clinging to Tyler’s arm as they made their entrance. When she saw me crash the gala in search of someone, she couldn’t help but advise me. “Why are you still obsessed with me? Even if you’ve waited ten years, I’ll never love you.” I ignored her and pulled my son out of the corner where he had been sneaking cake. Her eyes instantly redden as she grabs my hand in a panic. “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Didn’t you say you’d only ever love me in this life?”

The last thing she saw as her sight got blurry, was the face of her husband with his arms around a strange woman. His gaze held disgust and so much hatred that she wondered how she never noticed it. "You brought this upon yourself. I don't ever want to see you again." She thought she died, but then she woke up. A stranger beside her told her. "I will protect you." But does she want his protection? Especially since the said man promises to give her a life again if she will marry him. Can she turn her life around with his offer, or is she just bound for loneliness?

“There shall be a time in Mystic Falls that a dark force shall arise, determined to resurrect her kind and create a new dawn of darkness upon the land. But only the true love between a great Alpha and his pregnant mate shall put an end to this deadly wave” This prophecy was declared unto Arianna, who started her life as an orphan to a rejected mate. There was no hope that this prophecy was related to her until she eventually found herself immersed in a new realm of strength and fighting a war that she had no clue about. Friends and foes came her way, making it hard to trust anyone. She was betrayed by even her closest. But she was charged with a duty. The fate of the Moonstone pack rested in her ability to forgive her past and find true love. Will she return to her the same mate that rejected her? Or will she find another mate?

They broke her. Betrayed her. Left her for dead. But she’s coming back stronger, with two Alphas by her side. Mia was only a child when her mother died and the pack turned against her. Branded a killer, hated by her father, and tormented by a wicked stepmother and a jealous stepsister, Mia grew up as little more than a slave in her own home. Still, she clung to one fragile hope: her fated mate. Someone who would finally love her, protect her, and pull her out of the darkness. But fate can be cruel. When her mate is revealed to be the ruthless Alpha of her pack, Mia’s dreams shatter. Not only does he reject her, he beats her and claims her stepsister as his Luna instead. Left for dead and with nothing left to live for, Mia makes a final choice: she jumps into the sea, ready to end her pain forever. But the Moon Goddess isn’t finished with her yet. Rescued by powerful twin Alpha brothers, Mia is given something she’s never had before: a second chance. In their arms, she finds safety, healing, and a love fierce enough to ignite a fire in her broken heart. Now, she’s done waiting for mercy. She’s coming back for vengeance and this time, she's a silver wolf and a hybrid and not alone. She will be a force they can't reckon with.

From an awkward, insecure teen to a fully grown woman—she's come a long way. After everything she’s been through, she knows now that the cheap love of her past doesn’t define her worth. Her past may be messy, even painful, but just look at the woman she’s chosen to become: strong, beautiful, and unshakable. It’s hard for her to give love a second chance—especially after building walls so high. And then he said, "I know it’s too much to ask for a second chance. Deep down, I know how badly I hurt you. My heart aches every time I replay what I said, what I did. I wish I could take it all back. I know you're scared and hesitant—but please… let me in again."

Three years… That is how long Eunice Tsui spent in a coma after the car accident five years ago. Now that she is awake, the perpetrator must settle his debts. She's returning to the country that never gave her a warm home, and this time, she's taking matters into her own hands. She will track down every rat hiding in the sewer and eliminate them herself. No more being pushed around or feeling unwelcome—she's taking control of the situation. However, her well-thought-out revenge compromises when Jullian Lopez keeps appearing before her. What will be his role in the stage she built for the culprits to gather around? EXCERPT: “Mommy, I missed you!” A four-year-old boy rushes to her side and gives her a loud kiss on the cheek. “How’s my baby?” With an unusually delicate smile on her lips, Eunice asked softly. “Mommy, don’t embarrass me!” Eunice raised a brow and chuckled. “And why is that? You will always be my baby. Besides, we’re the only people here. Why would you feel embarrassed if I called you my baby?” Jillian pouted, folding his arms as he looked past his mom and pointed at the man who emerged from her bathroom only wrapped in a bath towel, barely covering anything. “Eunice Tsui! Why does that child look so much like me?” the man inquired. Eunice rolled her eyes and retorted, “Jullian Lopez, stop assuming. We never sleep together!” Astounded, Jillian shifted his gaze from the two adults to the bedroom, which looked like a super hurricane had passed because of how messed up the bed and every corner of the room were.

"you will abort the baby" Anthony's voice was cold and rough. "I don't want a child" "I can't abort it" Avery's voice was small, fear hidden beneath it. Her hands went to her stomach instinctively and wrapped around it protectively. "It's not a request." Anthony's voice was calm but threatening and it stirred a warning inside Avery. A warning that he wasn't to be messed with. "It's an order. I own you for the next one year and you will do as I say" Avery wanted to yell at him but she couldn't. Even as he sat in a wheelchair, he still looked powerful and threatening. There was just something about him that scared people. "Now get lost" he rumbled and Avery's chest tightened. She couldn't bear to get rid of her only reason to hope. Her father kicked them out of the house months ago with no apparent means of survival and her mother had become gravely ill, bills piling up, and no one left to turn to, she agrees to the unthinkable. An arranged marriage to a dying billionaire she barely knows. He’s cold and cruel. And he makes it clear he wants nothing more than a convenient end to this marriage. But Avery’s not giving up that easily. If she’s going to sacrifice everything, she’s determined to make him fall for her, for hope and for the future neither of them planned
