He Plays Dead, and I Make It Real

He Plays Dead, and I Make It Real

Three months after my husband, Josiah Erikson, disappears in a skiing accident, I spot him in a bar. He's laughing freely with an arm slung casually around his "best friend", Monica Jones' shoulders. "Good thing you came up with the idea. I'd almost forgotten what freedom feels like." One after another, his buddies clink glasses with him and ask about when he plans to reappear. He looks down and thinks about it before saying, "In a week. I'll show up once she's gone completely crazy searching for me." Standing in the shadows, I watch him savor his freedom, then call my friend who works at the state vital records office.

His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride

His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride

Althea Johnson did not walk blindly into darkness. Before the contracts, the demands of blood and legacy — Dominic Valtieri had loved her. It was fierce, dangerous, and real enough to make her believe she could stand beside a man the world feared. Behind his ruthless reputation, she had seen a man capable of choosing her. For a while, he did. Until the weight of his name consumed him. By the time they marry, Dominic is no longer the man who once held her like something precious. He is colder, controlled by a dynasty that demands an heir and sees love as weakness. Still, Althea clings to the ghost of what they once were, hoping the man she loved is still buried somewhere inside him. On their wedding night, that hope dies. There is no tenderness—only possession. No love—only purpose. She is not a wife to him, but a necessity. When she discovers she’s pregnant, the truth becomes unbearable. Dominic did not choose her again. He chose what she could give him. An heir. A legacy. A continuation of a name built on power and fear. To him, she is no longer the woman he loved. She became a vessel. But grief hardens into something far more dangerous than heartbreak. Because Althea remembers who he used to be — and that memory burns. If legacy has consumed Dominic Valtieri, then she will become the one thing his empire never accounted for: defiance. She will not allow her child to be raised as a pawn in a dynasty built on fear. She will not let love be twisted into ownership. And if she must burn his empire to the ground to set her child free— She will.

Bowing to public pressure, the department suspends me and tells me to keep reporting in at my own expense. I hand in my resignation on the spot.

Als ich nicht die Pflicht meines Alphas war

Als ich nicht die Pflicht meines Alphas war

Nachdem ich die Luna-Ausbildung abgeschlossen hatte, von der jede Wölfin träumte, ging ich mit einer Bitte zu meinem Alpha, Damien. Unsere Gefährtenbindung zu lösen. „All das nur, weil du deine Zeremonie verpasst hast, um der Gefährtin meines verstorbenen Bruders, Lilith, gegen die Gesetzlosen in ihrem Gebiet zu helfen?“ Ein spöttisches Lächeln verzog seine Lippen, seine Stimme war ein raues Flüstern. Ich nickte, schweigend. „Ich habe meinem Bruder mein Wort gegeben, bevor er starb. Ich schwor, Lilith zu beschützen. Ich kann dieses Gelübde nicht brechen! Warum verstehst du das nicht?“ flüsterte er und seufzte schwer. „Hör auf, so kindisch zu sein! Warum kannst du nicht vernünftig sein, wie Lilith?“ Ich schob ihn mit eisiger Ruhe von mir weg. Zehn Jahre. Zehn Jahre waren vergangen, nachdem unsere Bindung bestätigt worden war; ich gab alles auf. Jedes Hobby, jeder Traum… alles, um zu lernen, seine Luna zu sein. Jeder im Rudel hielt mich ohne ihn für so hilflos, dass ich nicht einmal ohne seinen Schutz überleben könnte. Aber diesmal hatte ich genug. Er wusste nicht, dass ich bereits die neutralen Rudel in einem anderen Land kontaktiert hatte. Ich würde an einen Ort gehen, den sein Alpha-Geruch niemals erreichen konnte.

Playing Dead and Breaking the Don-To-Be

Vincenzo Costa and I have been in love with each other for eight years. Everyone knows that the heir of the Costa family loves me more than life itself. In order to marry me—an orphan—Vincenzo has knelt outside Costa Estate for three days and three nights. At the same time, he has received 99 whips from his father, the Don of the Costa family, which almost kills him. In the end, Don Edmondo Costa finally agrees to let Vincenzo marry me. But the catch is, Vincenzo must date Sofia Camorra, the Principessa of the Camorra family, and have an heir with her. So, Vincenzo tells me to wait for him for a little longer. I end up waiting for a very long time while watching him traveling to Sofia's villa time and again. At first, Vincenzo still takes three showers and scrubs his skin so much that it turns red. He tells me that once Sofia has given birth to the child, which allows him to fulfill the promise he has made to the Costa family, he'll whisk me far away from the violence and spend the rest of his life with me. Alas, everything has changed. Vincenzo no longer showers frequently. He constantly smells like Sofia's perfume now. He doesn't inform in advance whenever he goes on dates with Sofia. To make things worse, there's nothing but affection in his eyes whenever he looks at her. When Sofia burns up from a fever during her pregnancy, Vincenzo doesn't leave her side at all. She pretends to be gracious by telling him about how understanding she is about his situation. Because of that, Vincenzo wastes no time in admonishing me for being spoiled and pampered. Through the gap in the ward door, I can hear how close and intimate Vincenzo and Sofia are. At the same time, I notice the flash of provocation in Sofia's eyes. Vincenzo has made me wait year after year, not knowing that my biological parents have already found me. They want me to go home with them so that they can give me a real home. That's why this time, I won't be waiting for Vincenzo anymore.
