Aventure d’un soir

Getting falsely arrested feels like a scene from a bad movie for rising star Gloriana Templeton, especially when she discovers the conditions of her release: round-the-clock surveillance by world-class lawyer Griffin Blackwood-Carter. Ignoring her attraction to the sinfully sexy man who crushed her youthful heart is getting harder by the minute! Gloriana belongs to Griffin now, and when he says jump, she’d better ask how high! With a reputation founded on control, he’s determined not to lose his head over this little minx again. But he blazes white-hot every time he looks at her, and it’s burning away his couldn’t-care-less façade!

"Dia siapa, Ma?" Entah kenapa aku gugup sendiri saat tanya itu mencuat. Aku belum berani melihat jelas wajahnya. Sampai Bu Tya memperkenalkanku padanya. "Ning, kenalkan ini anak sulung saya, Zen Maulana. Zen, ini Ning yang mau bantu mama bersih-bersih rumah. Dia juga mau kerja di kantin kampus." Aku yang baru saja menginjakkan kaki di anak tangga terakhir terlonjak kaget. Nama itu, tidak asing bagiku. Apa hanya sebuah kebetulan nama lengkapnya sama. Aku memberanikan diri melihat wajah anak sulung Bu Tya. Seketika kotak yang kupegang jatuh membuat isinya berhamburan. Rasa-rasanya kepalaku bagai dihantam palu. Aku tidak menyangka akan bertemu laki-laki masa lalu di rumah besar ini. Nasib yang menurutku baik bertemu Bu Tya ternyata disertai kejutan besar bertemu orang yang membuatku tidak tenang di tiga tahun terakhir hidupku. "Zen? Dia benar-benar Zen yang sama, Zen Maulana." Tanganku mendadak tremor. Bulir keringat sebesar biji jagung bermunculan. Bahkan tenggorokan terasa tercekat. Aku dilanda ketakutan seperti seorang penjahat yang menanti eksekusi hukuman. Pandangan mulai mengabur dan gelap. Lutut lemas seolah tak bertulang, aku terhuyung. Sebelum kesadaranku hilang, sayup-sayup telingaku menangkap suara. Nama panggilan yang biasa Zen sebut untukku. "Han!" Simak ceritanya, yuk.

I'd been lonely lately. Having accrued enough wealth to no longer need to go on the raids I was well off. Now I just needed a little slave girl to warm my bed. I'd considered a docile thing with a warm spot for me. But instead, I was intrigued by the spitfire commanding she'd not be touched. I saw her body and thought her too tiny but when I touched her, I wanted her. And what I want. I get. Afterall, I'm a wolf at heart. And a full moon is coming. She'll learn the way of things. One way or another.

Liam closed the door behind and walked closer, step by step, striking fear in the girl. Nora backed away, her body hitting the icy wall. He stared at her, his deep cello voice resounding in the room.“Nora Shahan, have you forgotten what I told you three years ago? Don't provoke me. But time and time again you kept testing my patience.” He picked up her jaw harshly and continued. “Tell me, how should I punish you?” Nora met his eyes, which were filled with a coldness, making her hair stand on end. This was the real Liam, cold and heartless. She was foolish to think he had changed for the better. A pang of bitterness welled up in her heart and she closed her eyes, letting the memories from the past flood into her mind.-Three years ago, Liam had warned her to never appear in front of him and Nora had been well behaved, staying as far as away from him. Whenever he'd go north, she'd go south. Even when they were in the same class, she'd stay at the opposite end. But fate played a cruel joke on her when she got locked down at his place. He assumed it was one of her tricks to climb into his bed. But she was certain she has fallen into an elaborate trap. With his family using despicable means to destroy everyone around him, can Liam successfully get her out of that hell house? How will Nora survive living under the same roof with the person who's been nothing but a nightmare all her life while learning his darkest secrets that would entangle them together and bring their entire world crashing down with it?

“I don’t want you running away from me. How long will it take you to understand that I want you?” “Joye, can you not see that my very existence is dependent on you? Can you not see that I’d be lost without you?” With trembling lips, she shook her head. “No, no, it’s not good for us. It’s not the best. You, me…, it’s incompatible! Please stay away from me.” “I don’t want to! I can’t!” “Please, I don’t want to do this the hard way. Joye, I love you so much. Don’t you feel the same way?” ***** Joye Parker, an ordinary omega, rejected and at the verge of giving up on her very existence.

Light in a dark soul, Kaelan Blackwood? It wasn’t the crazy part. He now calls her his light and savior? When did places switch? Find out in this captivating read! You are mine series***

BOOK SIX (MATE SERIES) Previous books mentioned inside: He was silent; a brooding stranger basking in the darkness as if it were an old friend. The logical part of me wanted to run away screaming and some other part of me that I never knew existed wanted to learn more about him. He looked deadly but his touch was a gentle caress. He looked rude but he was the most easy-going guy I had ever met. We clicked the moment our eyes met and that was when my world turned from all things logic and science related to something mythical and supernatural. I thought it was magic but he laughed, the only sound I'd ever hear leave his perfect lips, and called it a mate bond. ____________________ Dea Kelly is as human as it gets. She doesn't believe in the divine and she most certainly doesn't believe in the supernatural. What she does believe in is science because everything must have a logical explanation. At the age of thirty, she had her entire future planned out. Marry Jason Yates, a fellow scientist who believed in everything she did. Have children ASAP. And live till a hundred (at least she would try to.) But then something happens that she suddenly can't explain. A handsome yet silent stranger that bumped into her while walking on the side walk and the moment their eyes connected, electricity passed between them. It was in that very moment that Dea's life turned inside out.

Love…. You could lose yourself in it or find yourself. It all depends on you. Jealousy…. It drives one to the edge of madness. It paralyzes the mind, and drains the heart, damaging the soul. It teaches you what it takes to care. That's what their relationship was made up of. His eyes made her shiver with pleasure, it took her to euphoria. That's what she felt whenever she was with him, but not every day was sunshine and rainbows. He made her cry, he made her feel pain. He taught her the real definition of love; pleasure and pain. She liked how cold and rough he could get and he liked how innocent she played. He liked teaching her new things and she liked learning from the best. They'd survive the intoxication of each other. They made it further than they thought they would on the grounds of love, jealousy and pain. "What are you looking at?” he asked looking in the direction she was looking, “So... That's your type, huh?" he whispered in her ear with his hand on her thigh, clearly pissed. Siana moved away slightly from his warm breathe blasting on her face and his hand squeezing her thigh firmly. "Everyone out now!" he shouted then a smile came bursting through it all. She was alone shaking with fear and anxiety. She knew how he'd get whenever he was displeased, she knew the kind of psycho he was. He pulled her up from the chair and pushed her up against the wall, her hands enfolded in his and her breath breaking. He looked down then back up at her with a tiring look on his face and sighed "You know you really drive me crazy." his lips hovering over hers.

“By all means, do as you please. Run away as far as you can but keep one thing in mind, I'm going to find you. I'll follow you, Jaselyn. I'll stalk you like you're my prey and I'll catch you.” His warm breath brushes against my neck and I realize just then that he'd somehow bridged the distance between us. “I’ll make you mine over and over again till I become embedded in your DNA. You'll never be free of me.” His hand brushes against the side of my face, caressing almost lovingly while he says such chilling words to me. All of this feels like a farce, one big stupid comedy but a sad smile tugs at my lips when I realize this is my life. “I’ll give you everything and then I'll take it away. You'll always be mine, Jaselyn Everhart. Always.” *** Jaselyn just wants to make it out of the Pack. Living with her abusive uncle after her parents' death, she dreams of saving up enough to finally run away. That's until she meets her mate at the annual Peace ball and is claimed by him, only to be rejected the very next day.

This book explores dark themes, reader discretion is advised.
