Wrath And Glory 2nd Edition Pdf

My adopted sister, Rebecca Lawson, steals the gift I painstakingly prepared for the Don and presents it at a family gathering. Everyone in the room is stunned. So, my parents turned what was supposed to be my engagement party into a celebration banquet for Rebecca. They sit together and raise their champagne glasses to toast her, while I collapse alone in the bathroom, hitting my head and bleeding out. After regaining some consciousness, I use all my strength to call them for help, but only the mafia's consigliere and my fiance—Yves Gilbert—answers my calls. "Tessa, why didn't you come to Rebecca's celebration? She felt hurt by your absence! I know you've always been jealous that she could easily gain everyone's affection, but it's what she deserves. "Quickly come over and apologize to Rebecca. Don't disappoint us any further." Yves hangs up the phone after saying that. I stare at the darkened phone screen with an unsightly smile. They don't know that the gift I have prepared for the Don is still a half-finished product and needs to be repaired. However, I don't have the time to tell them. Because I am about to die of illness.

My younger sister and I unlocked our systems on the same day? The setting? The nation decades ago. She went for the learning system and married an intellectual. I had no choice but to go with the useless storage space system. Then, I was forced to marry a thug. A very rude and crass one at that. Thanks to the storage space system, I got through a famine and became the village's richest person. My sister's learning system was useless, and she almost died of starvation. Driven by jealousy, my sister seduced my husband and slept with him. To get my wealth, they came up with a plan and pushed me down a cliff. When I came to, I realized we'd returned to the day we awakened our systems. My sister shoved me away and picked the useless storage space system. "Move, you bitch! Now I have your system! I'll survive the famine and get rich! You'll live in my shadow forever, as you should!" She was so smug. She was gloating. I took the learning system and smiled to myself. Unbeknownst to my sister, I got rich during the famine, not because of the system, and my dream was to score high on the exam and get into a good college. My sister managed to mess up her life even when she had the better system. Now she took the useless one. I could practically see the misery waving at her down the path.

"Please, help me." I stretched my hands out as life and death flashed in front of my eyes. "Being Alpha was the only reason I had a relationship with you, So it would be best for I and the whole pack if I lost my mate to unknown people a night before our big day, I'm sorry Selene." There could be nothing worse than getting killed by your fiance few moments to your wedding right? Wrong! What was worse was being given a second chance at living just to end up at the brink of death immediately you were reborn? Even worse was being mated to a cursed Alpha that held the power of my judgement right inside of his fist.

Ever since we brought our six-year-old daughter, Elise, home, she's been keeping her distance. My husband, Patrick Sheeter, chalked it up to "adjustment issues." Told me to bring her more gifts when I got back from my overseas trip. I was halfway out the door when I heard her voice in my head. 'Should I tell Mom that Della always hits me? 'Dad says Mom hates tattletales. Especially me. 'But if I keep quiet, I might not make it till Mom gets back.' My stomach flipped. I turned around. Elise was curled up in the corner, eyes glassy with tears. Silent. But I still heard her. 'Maybe I lived again just to see Mom one more time.' Patrick, noticing I was frozen, casually reminded me I was gonna miss my flight. Right. Like that mattered. I turned and slapped him so hard. Screw the business trip. I was staying. Let's see who's got the guts to mess with my kid now.

It was the day of my return. The city was talking about the birthday party my husband was throwing for me. He was a lawyer. But the night before the big day, a message popped up on my husband's cell phone. 'It's been five years. I've been waiting for far too long.' My husband pushed me away, though his face was smeared with guilt. "I'm sorry, honey. The GM wants me on a last-minute work trip. I can't make it in time for your birthday." He left without even missing a beat. I opened up the GPS app and watched the red dot move away. That was him. I got an Uber and tailed him right away. His GM was me. I just got the job, and I approved his leave for my birthday. And then he told me, in my face, that I assigned him on a last-minute work trip when I did no such thing. It was midnight. And I was going to find out who this man was meeting at this witching hour.

At first, akala ni Callen Moore, natutuwa lang siya sa dalagang si Asia Jade Del Franco dahil sa lantarang pagpapahiwatig nang nararamdaman nito sa kaibigang si Astin. Hindi pala. Nasasaktan pala siya dahil unti-unti na siyang nahuhulog sa dalaga. At nasasaktan na siya sa paulit-ulit na pag-reject ni Astin dito. How he wish na sa kanya na lang nito ibaling ang pag-ibig nito. Dahil sa kabiguan kay Astin, ibinaling ni Asia ang tingin niya sa iniidolong author, kay Ismael. Napag-alaman niyang maliban sa magaling na manunulat, isa itong adonis. Wala siyang pinapalipas na libro nito sa merkado. Kaya mula sa pagkagusto, nauwi iyon sa obsession na makita ito. Ni hindi na nga niya pinapansin ang pagpapahaging sa kanya ni Callen tungkol sa nararamdaman nito, kahit na lagi itong sumusulpot sa tuwing kailangan niya nang karamay. At kung kailan naman nakukuha na ni Callen ang atensyon ni Asia, saka naman na nagpakita si Ismael sa kanya. Tunay nga ang bali-balitang isa itong adonis. Kaya binalewala niya nang tuluyan ang umuusbong na pagkagusto kay Callen. Pero hindi akalain ni Asia na may tinatagong lihim si Ismael. Ano kaya ang gagawin niya oras na matuklasan iyon? Mabibigo na naman ba siya sa pag-ibig?
