Chapter 1
Chapter 1
It's been 6 long years...
But the past is still fresh in her memory.
Those long nights always haunted her dreams.
The past that she tried to forget is now coming back.
Her past is now in front of her!
He still looks gorgeous and dangerously handsome.
She is in a meeting for the merger of their company.
Never did she think that he is the CEO.
The meeting has ended, but she didn't understand a single word of the discussion.
She stood up last and let all the people go out first.
She is taken by surprise when someone suddenly talks behind her back.
"Where have you been all these years?" he asked.
Hearing his voice again, create an unexplainable feeling.
But she didn't mind him and continued to walk.
"Playing blind and deaf, my love..."
Upon hearing what he said, memories came back flashing in.
Those memories that she keeps inside and has been buried for a long time.
He blocks her way. And she has no choice but to talk to him.
"Excuse me, Mr.Vergara. You are blocking my way," she said.
But he just laugh!
That laughter that she longs to hear...
"You left without saying goodbye, and that's all you can say?" he asked.
His voice is full of resentment!
She looks at the door, hoping for someone to enter.
But he slammed the door and locked it!
Destiny is playing her life again.
Of all the people he could encounter, Why Lance?
"Mr. Vergara, I don't have time for this. What are you talking about? " she innocently asked.
But Lance's handsome face got even angrier!
"Pretending not to know? Nathalie," he said her name.
"After 6 years, I finally know your name!" he shouted angrily.
Her heart skips, hearing her name in his voice.
They both have their own life now.
It's useless to remember all those memories!
"I need to go home. So please, excuse me," she walks away but when she is about to open the door, Lance hugs her tightly.
She tried to let go, but he is so strong. He can smell the fresh mint on Lance's breath.
"I miss you..." he said gently.
Did she miss him?
Lance surprisingly kiss her and she lost her control and kiss him back with longing.
Nathalie, this is not right!
Her conscience will not stop reminding her to do what is right.
He pushed Lance and slap his face.
"Please, don't do this again." She forcefully let go of her body from Lance's embrace.
Lance was surprised and angry at what she did.
Next time, he will surely hold her tight and never let her go!
She finally went out of the meeting room. Walking as if nothing happened. When she entered the elevator. Her knees finally gave up.
Will she last in here? Or will she go back to France?
But her Daddy is sick, and she is the only heiress of their company.
She cannot leave him.
She did so many mistakes in the past when she is young.
She wants to return the favor to her Dad by managing their company.
She just needs to avoid Lance.
Yeah right, as much as possible! She encourages herself.
The next day, she stayed at home.
She only sent her secretary to monitor the company to give her some possible news if ever there's a problem that may arise when she is on leave.
And she wanted to avoid Lance too.
But that man is a pain in her head.
He even went to their house pretending to visit her sick Dad.
He will never give her peace of mind!
She locked herself in the room until she heard someone knocking.
"Miss Nathalie are you there?" he asked.
He is here!
She did not answer but he will never surrender.
Knocking on her door again and again. And it's noisy to hear.
She decided to open the door and there he is, smiling so sweetly.
"Finally, you come out." He greets her with a wink.
And her heart flutters a bit!
"Don't worry, I'm just here for your signature only," he said showing her some paperwork.
That's all the reason why he went in here?
Why Nathalie, is there more?
Are you expecting something?
Erase that scene on your dirty mind!
"Are you okay? You seem out of your mind. Maybe you're thinking of me? " he's trying hard to be cute.
"Excuse me! I'm thinking about business. " she denied.
Lance suddenly went inside her room and closed the door.
He is a walking temptation!
"What are you doing? Get out! The maids might see you here. " she pushes him away.
Lance just smirked at her and sit down on her bed.
Enticing her to sit down next to him.
But that was a mistake 6 years ago. She was ashamed of what happened in the past, but she did not regret what happened between the two of them.
"Please sign these papers, Ms. Nathalie. " he is still smiling while giving the documents to her.
He is tempting her again...
Would she give in?
No, Nathalie. This is wrong!
She takes the papers and was surprised when Lance pulled her into his embrace and they fall on her bed.
Her, being on top of him!
She can finally see, the face that haunted her dreams over those years...
Now, she remembered. She regretted leaving him...
But, it's all useless. He is engaged and she is already married.
They will only both play a fire, if it will continue.
Until she can control herself, she will, and will not give Lance the satisfaction of doing an act that they might both regret later.
She released from his grip and tried to stand up.
But Lance would not let go of his embrace.
"I miss you so much. All those years, I've been looking for you. I felt like I'm going crazy! Waking up without you by my side. You left without even saying goodbye. Why?" he asked while intensely staring at her.
She is controlling herself not to give in.
And avoided his intense gaze.
Lance touches her face gently and she didn't know what to do but to close her eyes!
"I miss this face, this body, I miss the whole you..." Lance's voice is very gentle.
She opened her eyes, looking at his handsome face.
She can feel his warmness again...
And can finally touch him after all these years, but it's too late!
"Lance, we are not meant with each other. It's all in the past, so let's forget all of it. " Lance's face turns sour.
"I don't care! You can forget all about it?" he asked painfully.
No, But I need to...
She said.
"Yes, it's just a one-night mistake. There's no special about it, a one-night stand and that's how it is." she answer but her heart is saying, " It was never a mistake."
"Fine, forget it. But I will not. I will forever be your shadow wherever you go," he answered with determination.
She wanted to say, that no need for him to do it.

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."
I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.
Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.
"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

The Human Among Wolves
My stomach twisted, but he wasn’t finished.
"You're just a pathetic little human," Zayn said, his words deliberate, each one hitting like a slap. "Spreading your legs for the first guy who bothers to notice you."
Heat rushed to my face, burning with humiliation. My chest ached — not from his words alone, but from the sick realization that I had trusted him. That I had let myself believe he was different.
I was so, so stupid.

Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

Falling For The Biker: The Vice President's Girl
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.

And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?
