Introduction
Chapter 1
"I can't believe it," I say avoiding letting go of the tears that have already accumulated in my eyes.
"Laura, baby, please, I didn't mean...”
"Now you're going to tell me you didn't want to sleep with her?!" I interrupt him, already screaming with tears running down my cheeks.
In my words there is only a feeling of anger, anger that grew more and more.
"Seriously, love, seriously, I didn't mean..." He looks at me with a pleading look in his eyes, but I'm not willing to forgive this.
“This is where it ends, Gareth.” He resigns himself “Goodbye.”
And I leave his house as fast as my feet will carry me, visualize my car and head towards it.
I start to drive home, as I do so my mind can only think of the last few months with Gareth.
To think that two years of relationship went to waste in less than twenty minutes.
All because of an infidelity that in no way do I intend to forgive.
I hear the sound of my cell phone indicating that I am receiving a call, I look at the screen and my sister's name appears on it.
“Hi Liliam, what's up?” I ask when picking up.
"Hello Liliam? Oh really?” She's a little upset, and I don't blame her, she just gave birth to her first daughter and that has her a little stressed “dad is angry, he says that if you don't arrive before the man he invited home does going to...”
“Shit! I forgot, but I'm coming, tell him not to worry” I say quickly, cutting off the communication and drying my face.
It was only a block away to get home. Dad had told us that a man would arrive today who wanted to invest in one of the companies, and that he had invited him over, since the man lived in Los Angeles, and he had no intention of traveling, his second daughter had just given birth to birth to her third granddaughter.
Apparently dad's future partner is very interested in doing business with him, since he did not oppose or object to traveling from Los Angeles to New York.
When I get home I park the car and get out of it, when I open the door the first thing I see are two brown hair running towards me.
“Aunt!” Amanda says, stretching out the A. "I missed you." Amanda is the second daughter of Alexandre, my older brother, she is only two years old.
“But it was only a few minutes, little one” I say trying to hide the sadness in my voice, while I take her in my arms and leave many kisses on her face.
“But we still miss you, aunt” says Liam, he is my brother's eldest son, and also my father's eldest grandson, he is four years old, he is also very cute, I am sure that when he grows up he will be a heartbreaker.
"Where were you, Laura?" My father looks at me with a stern expression on his face.
“Sorry dad, I forgot, but I'm here.” I say advancing towards him and depositing a kiss on his cheek.
He Smiled.
“It's fine little one, but go get ready quickly, Mr. Smith will be here in a few minutes. Give me this little princess, I'll take her to her parents.”
“Ok dad.” He murmured as he left Amanda in her arms and I watched him leave with Liam, following in his footsteps.
When I go up the stairs I go through the corridor where my room is located, which is next to my sister's, when I pass through the front I hear little Sarah crying.
For only a week to live, she cries very hard.
I decide to ask if he needs help and I knock twice on the door, immediately Leandro. My sister's husband and Sarah's father appears behind her with a tired expression on her face.
"Oh! Laura, can I help you with something?”
“I ask the same thing, Leandro, do you want me to help you?”
“Yeah!” Liliam yells from inside “ Please, little sister, take Sarah, while we prepare for lunch, we're tired” She looks at me with a pleading face, I nod and she hands me the baby who is wearing bunny pajamas, she looks so tender.
I leave Liliam's room and go to my own, when I enter I leave Sarah, who strangely hasn't cried in the bed surrounded by pillows, and I go into the bathroom to shower.
When I go out I see the sleeping baby. I go into the closet and dress myself in a tight dress on top and a loose blue skirt, I leave my light brown hair loose and I do makeup that highlights my green eyes, at the end I put on black heels and that's it.
“Laura, dad tells you to come down quickly” Says my sister entering my room “Oh my God! You put her to sleep! Sister I love you!” She says when she sees her daughter asleep in my bed, I just laugh and deny while I get up and she takes the baby.
We walk out of the room together, Liliam stopping in her room to put Sarah down in her crib and running out.
"Come on, dad must be mad," she says and takes my hand.
Upon reaching the ground floor we find Alexandre.
“Hurry up, Smith just entered the dining room.” He says with a frown.
We enter the dining room together, and everyone is seated, so in silence we rush to do the same.
"Excuse my daughters' tardiness, Mr. Smith."
My eyes widened at the sight of the man in front of me. I watched him from head to toe and my heart raced so much I was afraid they might hear the beat.

When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
Oops, Wrong Girl to Bully
My back hit the desk. Pain exploded through my skull.
"Girls like you don't get to dream about guys like Kai." Bella's breath was hot on my face. "You don't get to write pathetic love letters."
She shoved me again. Harder.
"Maybe if you weren't such a desperate little—"
I fell. My head cracked against the corner.
Warmth trickled down my neck. Blood.
Their laughter turned to gasps.
The door slammed.
I tried to stand. Couldn't. The room was spinning, fading to black.

"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."

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.
I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
The Forbidden Throb
Mine changed in the time it took to open a door.
Behind it: my fiancé Nicholas with another woman.
Three months until our wedding. Three seconds to watch it all burn.
I should have run. Should have screamed. Should have done anything except stand there like a fool.
Instead, I heard the devil himself whisper in my ear:
"If you're willing, I could marry you."
Daniel. The brother I was warned about. The one who made Nicholas look like a choir boy.
He leaned against the wall, watching my world implode.
My pulse thundered. "What?"
"You heard me." His eyes burned into mine. "Marry me, Emma."
But as I stared into those magnetic eyes, I realized something terrifying:
I wanted to say yes to him.
Game on.
