Thanatos walks into the room, and my world stands still. He looks like a Greek god. I can’t catch my breath. He’s almost 7 feet tall. I need to run my fingers through his golden locks that touch his beautiful face. His dark gold eyes burn into my soul. His face is full of scars and draws me in. He is the most handsome man I have ever laid eyes on. His muscles are bulging out of his tux. He smells like a wood fire. Like he’s going to burn my entire world down. My jaw is on the floor. My wolf is howling in my head, begging me to reach out and touch him. He pulls out a chair and sits beside my father. My sisters and I sigh in unison. What I wouldn’t give to be his seat cushion. Traded like property. Marked as a breeder. Ayesha was never meant to survive the Lycan King. But inside her stirs something ancient Stella, a demon wolf bound by blood and rage. She doesn’t obey. She doesn’t kneel. And she certainly doesn’t care that the king wants Ayesha to carry his heir. Ayesha must walk a dangerous line between survival and surrender. Because losing control doesn’t just mean death it means

Eu fui linchada na internet pelas minhas próprias funcionárias que eram mães. Elas começaram a espalhar que a creche gratuita da empresa, feita especialmente para os filhos delas, era na verdade uma "prisão de crianças", um truque cruel para forçar horas extras. O que elas não sabiam era que aquela creche foi o meu projeto mais caro e mais amado: eu importei equipamentos de ponta, contratei professores de fora do país, montei uma estrutura em que cada criança custava, em média, oito mil reais por mês. Ainda assim, a internet inteira caiu matando em cima de mim, me chamando de palhaça, de hipócrita, de capitalista nojenta. Foi aí que eu perdi a paciência e soltei um comunicado interno para todos os funcionários: [Para atender ao desejo de autonomia das famílias na criação dos filhos, a empresa decidiu encerrar o serviço de creche gratuita. A partir de hoje, será substituído por um auxílio‑creche: funcionários que se encaixarem nos critérios receberão 200 reais por mês.] Bastou o aviso ser enviado para o caos começar. As mesmas mães que me xingavam estão agora em massa na porta da minha sala, implorando para eu não fechar a creche.
