Wonder Ch

18+ __ Reaching forward, she ran her hand over his hard, well defined abs. “Its pretty.” Zique held her hand against him, pride shooting through him like electricity. A man’s body wasn’t something to be called pretty, but she could call his whatever she wanted to. “Thank you.” He slid her hand further down, running it along the length of his covered c*ck. “I wonder what you’d have to say about this.” The hardness made Kiara gasped and when he dropped his underwear, she was utterly flabbergasted. It was the size of her hand, unbelievable but true. “Huge...?” Zique smirked. “I thought you’d call it pretty too.” ___ As ruthless as the devil, Zique Blud reigned above all the other alpha's. He was feared by most, looked up to by many and only a few had the courage to test him. He hated the weak, detested them with his whole heart, which was exactly why he crushed them...But crushing them ended up being the reason why he was cursed by the goddess... In ten years...he needed to find his mate or the thread around his heart would tighten until it killed him. _ Kiara Cole had been locked away from the world all her life, she was weak, without a wolf...thus why the alpha of the Silver Rain pack decided to isolate her from the world...

Synopsis Selene est née maudite. Sans loup, elle est la honte de la famille Thorne, une lignée obsédée par la pureté du sang et la fierté. Sa mère, Luna Mariana — souveraine froide et impitoyable de la meute Crescent Blood — a fait de sa vie un enfer, la reléguant au rang de paria. À l’opposé, Ciara, sa demi-sœur cadette, est l’enfant chérie. Bénie d’un loup blanc rare comme la neige éternelle, elle est admirée, désirée et célébrée par toute la meute. Afin de préserver l’honneur familial, Selene est cachée dans l’ombre, utilisée uniquement comme monnaie d’échange pour des alliances matrimoniales insignifiantes. Mais personne ne la choisit. Pas même les alphas les plus faibles. Tous veulent Ciara — pour son loup rare et pour ce qu’elle représente. Tout bascule lorsqu’un alpha tristement célèbre exige une compagne issue de leur meute. Kael Varn, le redouté Alpha de la lointaine et brutale meute de Gravepine, est entouré de rumeurs sanglantes : il aurait assassiné son propre père, laissé des massacres derrière lui et posséderait un loup si terrifiant que nul ne l’a jamais vu… ni osé décrire. Tous sont convaincus qu’il choisira Ciara — la fille parfaite. Mais lorsque la cérémonie de la Lune commence, le loup de Kael hurle. Pas pour Ciara. Pour Selene. Et Kael Varn n’accepte jamais qu’on lui dise non.

Il la plaqua contre le mur, et elle gémit de douleur, ses doigts s’enfonçant dans sa peau nue à la taille. — Qu’est-ce qu’il s’est passé, mi amor ? Tu es blessée ? murmura-t-il de sa voix rauque et étrangement calme. — Qu’est-ce que tu fous ?! Lâche-moi ou je hurle ! tenta-t-elle de se dégager. — Vas-y, hurle. J’adorerais t’entendre crier encore une fois, mi amor, souffla-t-il lentement. Ses yeux à elle s’écarquillèrent. — Qu… qu’est-ce que tu racontes ? balbutia-t-elle, les yeux embués de peur. — Tu pensais qu’épouser mon frère effacerait ce qu’on a fait, toi et moi ? Quelle idiote, ricana-t-il, avant de la tirer brusquement vers lui par la taille. — Non, non, non… cria-t-elle en le repoussant, alors que son esprit la ramenait à cette nuit-là. Il tituba en arrière et éclata de rire. — T’inquiète pas, c’est notre petit secret. À bientôt, Amor, lança-t-il avec un clin d’œil avant de s’éloigner dans le couloir d’un pas majestueux. — Ce n’est pas vrai… Ça ne peut pas être vrai, souffla-t-elle, le visage ravagé par le choc et les larmes. Ses genoux lâchèrent, et elle s’effondra lourdement au sol. • Catherine Baldwin, une jeune femme de vingt ans, a « accidentellement » passé une nuit ivre dans les bras d’un inconnu, deux jours avant son mariage. Une semaine après la cérémonie, elle découvre que cet inconnu n’est autre que... le frère de son mari.

— "Porte quelque chose que je peux facilement retirer. On ne sait jamais." Le message fait monter une chaleur dans mes joues. Je tape ma réponse, mes doigts tremblants : "On verra." Tout a commencé par une odeur. Du romarin, du beurre qui grésille, et quelque chose de sucré s'infiltrant par ma fenêtre dans ce nouvel appartement parisien. Je venais de quitter Thomas, de tourner la page sur quatre années tièdes et confortables. Je cherchais un nouveau départ. Je ne m'attendais pas à trouver l'obsession. Matthieu Beaumont. Chef trois étoiles. Beau comme un péché. Intense comme un incendie. Notre histoire a commencé avec un repas partagé et un regard échangé à travers une cour intérieure. Elle a explosé dans une passion dévorante qui m'a consumée plus vite que je n'aurais cru possible. — "Goûte ça," murmure-t-il en me tendant une fourchette, ses yeux sombres ne quittant jamais les miens. "Et ferme les yeux." Le gémissement qui m'échappe le fait sourire ce sourire carnassier qui devrait m'effrayer mais qui, à la place, fait naître un feu dans mon ventre. — "Ce son," dit-il d'une voix rauque. — "J'ai envie de te l'entendre faire encore et encore. Mais pas pour de la nourriture." Trois jours. Il m'a fallu trois jours pour tomber amoureuse d'un homme que je connaissais à peine. C'est l'histoire d'un chef qui cuisine comme il fait l'amour : avec une intensité qui vous laisse pantelant et en redemandant. Ceci est notre histoire. Crue. Honnête. Pimentée.

Je suis morte le jour où j'ai remporté le Prix international du doctorat en médecine. Mes parents, mon frère et mon fiancé venaient de célébrer les seize ans de ma petite sœur. Ils ne sont rentrés à la maison que trois heures après ma mort. Sur les réseaux sociaux, les photos de famille rayonnaient de bonheur, tandis que moi, je gisais dans le sous-sol étouffant, baignant dans mon sang. Avant de mourir, j'avais lutté pour faire glisser ma langue sur l'écran de mon téléphone, tentant désespérément d'appeler à l'aide. Mes parents et mon frère avaient bloqué mon numéro. Seul mon fiancé avait répondu. À l'instant où sa voix s'est fait entendre, il a lâché sèchement : « Winona, l'anniversaire de Winnie est important. Arrête d'essayer de détourner l'attention avec tes excuses pitoyables. Assez de cinéma. » Cela a achevé la dernière étincelle qui me restait pour survivre. Dans ce râle électronique, mon cœur s'est arrêté. La centième fois qu'ils la choisissaient, elle. La centième fois qu'ils m'abandonnaient pour elle. Mais c'était aussi la dernière. Ils pensaient que je m'étais encore enfuie pour attirer leur attention, et que s'ils me donnaient une bonne leçon, je finirais par revenir en rampant, pathétique. Mais pas cette fois. Parce que je n'avais pas quitté la maison. J'étais allongée dans le sous-sol de chez moi.

He looks at me like he already knows the truth I’ve spent a lifetime hiding. Ethan Vance—lawman, predator, believer in a system I learned to outthink before I could drink wine. His eyes don’t burn with hate. They study, measure, almost… understand. They call him incorruptible. Maybe he is. But I’ve seen incorruptible men fall, not to money or power, but to fascination. The kind that crawls under your skin and makes you wonder if the person chasing you might be the only one who truly sees you. He hunts me by the book. I survive by rewriting it. But somewhere between the pursuit and the silence, between his questions and my lies, the line blurred. And now, I can’t decide which is more dangerous, losing to him, or wanting him to catch me. --- He isn’t what I expected. Luca Vitale walks into every room like he owns it, and maybe he does. Calm. Calculated. Dangerous in ways that don’t show up on a rap sheet. He should be just another target, another name I take down and file away. But there’s something about the way he looks at me. Like he already knows I’m not as untouchable as I pretend to be. I tell myself it’s strategy, curiosity, control. It’s not. It’s a problem. Because every time I think I’m closing in, I realise he’s already two steps ahead—and for the first time in my career, I’m not sure if I’m hunting him, or if he’s letting me try.

BLURB: “What are you doing, Adrian?!” I ask in an alarmed tone, the intense look in his eyes scaring the shit out of me. “I can fucking smell him on you!” Adrian growls at me as he covers the distance between us. “Let go, Adrian. You are scaring me!” I say in a shaky tone as Adrian's hand wraps around my wrist like a hot band. “You better be scared, doll, because when I'm done with you my name will be the only thing etched in your mind and fucking body.” Adrian says through gritted teeth, his words leaving me shaking on the spot. I'm overwhelmed with fear as I begin to wonder if I will even make it out if this room alive. __________________________ For a long time, winning the love of one of the most ruthless billionaires in the city was the only thing on Anya's mind until she is faced with his cruel betrayal and served with divorce papers.
