Ma meilleure amie et moi avons épousé les héritiers d'une grande famille fortunée. J'ai dit « oui » à l'aîné, Alexandre, un brillant chirurgien, tandis qu'elle s'est unie au cadet, Thomas, un PDG aussi brillant que glacial. Le jour de notre mariage, Alexandre s'est volatilisé pour aider son ex à retrouver son chien perdu. Un comble ! Ma grand-mère, sous le choc, a fait une crise cardiaque. J'ai supplié Alexandre de revenir pour la sauver. « Tu as perdu la tête, Emma ? » m'a-t-il lancé, furieux. « Tu serais prête à maudire ta seule famille pour me faire revenir ? Chloé est désespérée, son chien a disparu. On peut toujours reporter la cérémonie. » Ce jour-là, elle a retrouvé son stupide animal, mais moi, j'ai perdu ma grand-mère à jamais. Je me suis effondrée en larmes. À mon réveil, j'ai regardé Juliette droit dans les yeux : « Je vais demander le divorce. Et toi ? » Elle m'a serrée contre elle, les joues ruisselantes : « Moi aussi, c'est fini. » Quand les frères Lefèvre ont reçu nos demandes de divorce, ils ont pleuré comme des enfants...

Mais combien de temps encore ? » Un triangle amoureux à la tension insoutenable. Un garçon blessé, une fille écartelée, un choix impossible. 🖤 L’amour peut-il survivre à l’amitié ? 🔥 Et si tomber amoureux de sa meilleure amie… c’était la pire erreur de sa vie ?

Mes parents, parmi les plus riches du pays, jouissent d’une réputation nationale en tant que philanthropes renommés. Pourtant, toute dépense de plus de cinq euros devait faire l’objet d’une demande formelle auprès d’eux. Quand le médecin m’a appris que mon cancer était en phase terminale, j’ai rassemblé tout mon courage pour leur demander 100 euros. Résultat : trois heures d’humiliation. « À ton âge, tu veux vraiment me faire croire à un cancer ? Trouve une excuse plus crédible pour demander de l’argent. » « Tu sais qu’avec 100 euros, des enfants dans les régions pauvres pourraient survivre longtemps ? Même ta sœur adoptive est plus raisonnable que toi. » À bout de force, traînant mon corps malade, j’ai marché plusieurs kilomètres pour retourner dans mon sous-sol étroit et sale. Et sur le chemin, sur un écran géant d’un centre commercial, je les ai vus : mes parents, souriants, dépensant une fortune pour offrir Disneyland à ma sœur adoptive. Les larmes que je retenais depuis longtemps se sont mises à couler. 100 euros ne suffisaient même pas pour une séance de chimiothérapie. Je voulais seulement acheter une tenue neuve pour partir dignement.

“No, please, please don't give me away like this," I begged, gripping him. My step - father pushed me to one of the guards. I was being given away as a slave to the most feared man in the region. He was King Mattel, the alpha who was born with a curse placed on him by the moon goddess. “You are of no use here.” He growled at me. “No, no, I'll work hard to help you pay off the debts, I promise.

“We need help,” The man supporting the other up said roughly, voice strained like he’d been screaming. “Are you a doctor?.” He hefted the slumped man up and said, “He’s been shot.” “Y-yes,” Gianna managed to choke out, but she had to lean on a nearby wall as she saw the gun. And it was aimed at her. The third man, snapped out, “You save him. Now.” “The clinic isn’t--” “Now!” The man thundered, gesturing down to the gun. “Or I’m not going to be heartbroken about emptying a bullet into you.” *** *** Their worlds were never meant to collide. He was the boss of the Mariposa Mafia after all, he was ruthless, insane, cunning, the shadow king of the underground… he had no time for love. But somehow that all changes the first time Dante laid his eyes on the beautiful doctor coerced with a gun to her head to save their boss’s life. For Gianna, the rules for being a doctor in gang territory were simple: keep her clinic open at all costs, treat her patients with care, watch out for her rebellious little brother, Giovanni, and most of all, avoid the thugs. The last thing she expected was to get caught up in a gang war, or to find herself falling for Mariposa’s leader himself, Ferrari Dante. And in a world where rules are everything, sometimes breaking them can mean the end of everything, like helping Dante. That is, if her heart doesn't kill her first. Dante never fathomed he would... care, so much about her, about anyone. Or maybe it’s deeper than just caring as Gianni shows him a whole new perspective to the world. .

"You sound jealous." He pointed out and pushed off the wall. He walked towards me with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "You wish." I barely said as my knees went weak with the expectation of him touching me. "Do you want me to fuck your brains out?" Issa huskily asked as he groped me to his hard muscled body. The slit between my legs was heating up. I knew that I had to be very careful about my answer or things were going to take a dirty turn. "In your dreams," I whispered and softly pushed him back. I prayed that he had not caught on to my moment of weakness. "I will be waiting for you in my dreams then." _________ Yulia— a stubborn and rebellious wolf's life is turned upside down when she's forced to move in with her step-uncle, Lycan Issa Frostwood, after her mother's death.
