Karma Goddess

I'm accidentally pushed off a cliff when my fiancé and I are enjoying the sunset. I end up with grave injuries. As I drift in and out of consciousness, I hear Eric Bartholomew speaking to a doctor. "Gamma Derrina's injuries aren't that severe, Alpha. She can be treated even without her womb being removed!" "Shut up! Do it because I say it needs to be done. Don't forget that I'm the Alpha here—all you need to do is obey me! Only if Derrina loses her womb can my and Phyllis' pup to become the wolf pack's heir. "Use copious amounts of sedatives on her. I don't want her to wake up on the wedding day. She'll be sad if she sees that the bride isn't her." I open my eyes and look at Eric standing outside the room. He's like a monster with hands that can end lives. I'll make his wish come true since he wants to marry that weak Omega. I make a call. "I agree with the thing you asked me about before." The person on the other end of the line laughs. "The Moon Goddess loves the wise."

My name is Addison Calder. During my first heat as an adult werewolf, Morgan Flint suddenly announces that he wants to end things. I can't stop crying—not from a broken heart but because the torment of my mating cycle is consuming me from within. Gripping his sleeve tightly, I lean closer, attempting to kiss away the tension. Impatient, Morgan shoves me toward his older brother, Tucker Flint. "Hey, Tucker. Addie's drunk and losing it. Can you help calm her down?" As Tucker steps forward, Morgan leans in and whispers, "Keep an eye on her. Don't let any other men get close. I'm only breaking up with her for now. Once I'm done fooling around, I'll get back together with her." Tucker nods and gently lifts me into the car. "It hurts, doesn't it?" he says softly. Overwhelmed by the pain, I clutch his tie with tears streaming down my face. "Please… Help me," I plead. Tucker's pupils contract, his voice low and hoarse. "And how exactly do you want me to help you?" In a flash, I lean in and press my lips to his. "Kiss me… or let me kiss you." Our passionate kiss melts away much of the tension gnawing at me. Noticing Tucker's reddened ears, I grab his tie once more. "Will you take me home?"

Isang babaeng pinangalanang Sithya ang nadisgrasya dahilan ng pagkawala ng kanyang memorya, hindi niya alam kung paano mamumuhay ng walang kaalam alam kung sino at nasaan siya. Wala siyang ibang magagawa kundi ang magpanggap at makisama sa mga mageno na napag-alamanan niyang may espesyal na abilidad. Namuhay siyang nagpapanggap na kabilang sa mga naninirahan sa Voreios, lugar kung saan nakatira si Ravus — ang lalaking nagligtas sa kanya, hanggang sa makuha niya ulit ang kanyang memorya. Nang sa gano’n ay makabalik siya sa totoong kanyang pinanggalingan, at hindi iyon Voreios. Naging matunog ang kanyang pangalan sa Voreios dahil sa kanyang pambihirang pisikal na abilidad na kayang makipagsabayan sa pakikipaglaban sa mga mageno kung kaya’t sa maikling panahon ay itinuring siyang isa sa mga mageno kahit walang taglay na espesyal na abilidad. Sa maikling panahon ay marami na siyang nagpadaanan sa loob ng Voreios at pakiramdam niya ay kabilang talaga siya dito. Kaya gumuho ang lahat nang bumalik ang kanyang memorya. Hindi siya si Sithya. Hindi siya taga-Voreios, at lalong lalo nang hindi siya mageno dahil siya si Seffyre Nicolisle Lestridge na isang tao. Siya pala ay mula sa mundo ng mga tao na kinamumuhian ng mga mageno. Nauunawaan niya na kung bakit kakaiba ang kanyang pisikal na abilidad. Iyon ay dahil siya ay hindi lang ordinaryong tao kundi isang agent na hubog sa pakikipaglaban. Ngayon ay kailangan niyang gumawa ng paraan upang makabalik sa mundo ng mga tao na kanyang totoong kinabibilangan habang wala pang nakakaalam sa kanyang lihim. Sa kanyang pagbabalik sa mundo ng mga tao ay nabalitaan niya na ang mundo ng mga mageno ay nasa panganib. Pipiliin niya bang bumalik para tumulong? O manatiling mamuhay ng ordinaryo sa kanyang sariling mundo?

[Rendezvous = Pertemuan] — Mungkin pepatah mengatakan 'Dunia itu sempit seperti daun kelor' benar adanya. Semesta juga memiliki macam-macam karma yang membuat banyak orang terkadang menyesali apa yang ia katakan ataupun lakukan. Tapi banyak juga yang mengatakan Karma itu indah dan Pertemuan juga indah. Tapi sepertinya tidak berlaku bagi wanita berumur 25 tahun itu. Meski tak sebenci dulu, namun pertemuan dengan pria berumur terpaut lumayan jauh itu menjuluki bahwa pertemuan tersial yang ia temui. Apalagi pertemuan buruk ditambah karma buruk pula, nyatanya ia harus terjebak dengan pria tersebut dalam jangka waktu tidak bisa ditentukan. — "Bapak tu kenapa kalo sama saya sensi terus? Heran saya." "Saya penasaran kenapa kamu benci saya." Written by mochachash

Aku disiram segelas air oleh klien, tubuhku gemetar saat menghadapi makiannya, sementara Raisa Gunawan memeluk asistennya sambil menatapku dengan dingin.

—¡Ay... más suave, mi esposo me está llamando! —exclamé con las mejillas enrojecidas mientras tomaba el teléfono y contestaba la videollamada. Al otro lado de la línea, mi esposo, con la mirada perdida, me daba una orden tras otra, sin percatarse de que, fuera de cámara, un joven movía la cabeza entre mis piernas.
