E Myth Revisited

« Qu'est-ce que… tu fais ? » demanda Celeste d'une voix tremblante mais douce, comme si elle était au bord des larmes. « Qu'en penses-tu, ma petite ange ? » Malakai inclina la tête, ses yeux sombres se plissant, tandis que sa grande main caressait chaque tache de rousseur de son visage. « Voilà comment je montre à tout le monde à qui tu appartiens. En d'autres termes, je te revendique, ma chère épouse, et ici, point de salut, seulement la damnation. » ***************** Celeste Ronan devait épouser le benjamin des frères Valtor. L'amour de sa vie, mais quelques jours avant le mariage, elle le surprit en train de murmurer des mots doux à l'oreille de sa sœur aînée, tandis qu'elle le chevauchait. Fragilité et fille de la famille Ronan, elle fut rejetée, impuissante, tandis que son ex-fiancé épousait sa sœur aînée. Un verre d'alcool était censé l'aider à noyer son chagrin et à se complaire dans son désespoir, mais il n'en fut rien. Sa résistance à l'alcool ne fit pas le poids, et elle finit dans les bras de l'aîné des frères Valtor, Malakai Valtor. Celui qui portait une cicatrice, le milliardaire impitoyable et froid qui piétinait rois et ministres. Il n'était pas un sauveur, mais un démon dans un costume Alexander Amosu sur mesure. Céleste cherchait désespérément à fuir la réalité. Elle signa donc un contrat de mariage et devint officiellement sienne. À lui. À lui de la briser. À lui de la damner. Malakai Valtor est d'une avidité sans bornes. Il n'est pas question de partager sa jeune épouse innocente, qui cherche refuge dans son enfer, ni sa multinationale valant des milliards. Ni avec son frère, ni avec personne d'autre.

Durante a cerimônia de premiação da Competição Internacional de Design de Joias, a minha meia-irmã recebeu o grande prêmio, só que usando os designs que havia roubado de mim. E qual era o grande prêmio? Tornar-se a noiva do principal patrocinador da premiação, Jude Moretti, o Padrinho da família Moretti. Ele era um homem cruel e ambicioso, mas que acabou atingido por uma grande explosão e por isso diziam que ele não podia ter filhos. Naquela noite, os homens de Moretti, vestidos com seus paletós pretos, traziam um contrato de casamento todo cravejado a ouro. Eles buscavam a "artesã extraordinária". Meu noivo, Marco, entrou em pânico e fugiu com a Sandra às pressas para Vegas, eles se casaram naquela noite e ela foi salva. Com o ato consumado, Sandra retornou usando o meu vestido de seda, o pescoço cheio de marcas e exibindo um anel brilhante em seu dedo. — Agora, o Marco é meu. — Ela disse em tom de deboche. — O que você vai fazer, Odessa? O padrinho te deu apenas um dia para decidir. Se você não se casar, a Família vai pedir uma compensação e você terá que trabalhar em algum cortiço qualquer, ou quem sabe eles não te vendem para algum maluco com fetiches estranhos. Ela estava enganada, eu não tinha escolha. Mais cedo, eu encontrei meu pai e minha madrasta tendo dificuldades para lidar com aquele contrato. — Eu faço isso! — Eu disse. — Eu me caso com o Padrinho.

No terceiro ano do meu casamento com Leonardo Carvalho, recebi de repente um vídeo enviado por Cristiane Carvalho, irmã adotiva dele. Quando abri, vi Leonardo usando a gravata que eu havia acabado de lhe dar para amarrar a própria irmã adotiva na cabeceira da cama. Ela estava completamente nua sob o corpo dele, gemendo sem parar e chamando-o de "meu amor". Depois, os dois ficaram abraçados, colados um ao outro. Cristiane, manhosa, enroscou os braços no pescoço dele e reclamou: — Mano, aquele anel que você me deu, eu não gostei. Leva de volta e dá para a sua esposa. Diz que é presente de aniversário da irmãzinha, tá? No dia seguinte, eu me sentei sozinha em um restaurante elegante. Fiquei encarando a cadeira vazia à minha frente, perdida em pensamentos. De repente, o assistente apareceu empurrando um bolo enorme na minha direção. — O Chefão teve um imprevisto e me mandou entregar seu presente de aniversário. Dentro da caixa estava justamente o anel que a irmã adotiva dele havia recusado. Logo depois, novas fotos chegaram ao meu celular. Leonardo estava no hospital acompanhando Cristiane, dedicado como um marido perfeito. Eu não chorei. Não fiz escândalo. Apenas assinei calmamente os papéis do divórcio e pedi que começassem a preparar um casamento. — Senhora, em nome dos noivos... Quem devo colocar? — Leonardo e Cristiane. Sete dias depois, eu faria o mundo inteiro ver o quanto o reservado e inflexível Padrinho sabia se divertir quando estava sozinho com a própria irmã.

They say the happiest moment in a Lycan’s life is when they finally meet their fated mate. But what happens when you reject your fated mate just to be with your chosen one—only to realize you made the biggest mistake of your life when the one you chose abandons you and picks someone else? That was exactly what happened to Amelia Blake. After discovering she was pregnant with the child of her boyfriend and chosen mate, Lucas West, she was cruelly rejected by him. Instead of staying by her side, he chose her stepsister, Olivia Blake. What Amelia didn’t know was that everything had been planned from the start by her stepsister and stepmother. They wanted Lucas—the Alpha of their The Crescent Moon Pack—for themselves. Ever since her mother died and her father left the empire, her stepmother had been slowly poisoning her, leading to the loss of her unborn child… and eventually, her own death. Before she drew her last breath, the truth was finally revealed to her. “Even with your dying breath, you’re still a fool, Amelia. You’re too kind, just like your mother. That’s why you’ll die without even putting up a fight.” With her final breath, she vowed she would seek vengeance. She swore she would make every single person who hurt, used, and belittled her pay the price. And when she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the past one year before her death. There, she met again the fated mate she once rejected and decided she would use Lorcan Ashford—Lucas West step-brother, as her weapon in her revenge.
