Pedaço De Vida

CAMILLA As if being used by Rico for his club business wasn’t enough, he sold me to Nighthaven’s billionaire, the untouchable AUGUST CHILDE. August Childe is dangerous in ways money can’t hide. He is intense, possessive, and beautifully broken. He lives with bipolar disorder, a mind that swings between control and care. I should be afraid. Instead, I’m falling. And loving him might cost me the last piece of myself I still own. AUGUST She’s a goddess. That’s the only word that fits. I want her—desperately, irrationally—but how does someone like her survive someone like me? I want her, but I have a fiancée forced on me by my family, and my family would rather destroy this goddess than tarnish our legacy. I want her. And I don’t know how, or if I can stop. Sold into South Nighthaven’s underworld, Camilla survives years of exploitation before being claimed by August Childe—the untouchable billionaire heir whose power hides a dangerous truth: a bipolar disorder he has never learned to control. What begins as captivity ignites into a forbidden, consuming love complicated by his fiancée, a woman forced on him by his family, his family’s ruthless legacy, and a mind constantly on the edge of unraveling. When August chooses reputation and almost marries his fiancée, Camilla walks away carrying his child—only to be dragged back into the darkness she barely escaped. It is only after losing Camilla that August dismantles the empire that owned her, confronts his illness, and abandons the life that taught him love was disposable. Love offers them a second chance—but only if August chooses healing over control, and Camilla decides whether trusting the man who once let her go is worth the risk of losing herself again.

MICAH. I’ve always done as my father commanded—until he sells me to a family in Sicily and I become the property of Sullivan Stone. He’s everything I always want to stay away from; cold, ruthless, and dangerously intent on having what he wants. But what I didn’t expect was how easily his darkness would pull me in—how quickly his world would become mine. Running was never an option. And by the time I understand the truth, I’m already too deep in his game to crawl out. SULLIVAN. I wanted her the moment I saw her—feisty, sly, and meant to be broken. She doesn’t know it yet, but I’ll make her mine in every sense of the word. I’ll train her, tempt her, and mold her until she fits perfectly into my hands. But when she uncovers the secret that brought her to me, she’ll realize survival always demands a price. And this time, that price might be our everything! Get ready for a steamy chaotic mafia novel!

En mi vida pasada, mi hermana Marina y yo dimos con dos huevos misteriosos y los pusimos a salvo. Del suyo nació una serpiente de hielo, y del mío un fénix envuelto en llamas. Marina me arrebató el fénix que yo había criado con tanto cariño, pero nunca pensó que acabaríamos viviendo un apocalipsis de calor extremo. Ella se murió asfixiada por el calor y, en su último aliento, logró persuadir a Iván, mi esposo —la serpiente de hielo— para que me estrangulara. Pero nadie imaginó que volveríamos al mismo día en que esos dos huevos empezaban a romperse. Esta vez, Marina se quedó con Iván. Creía que, con él a su lado, podría salir adelante sin problema en ese infierno de calor, confiando en su poder helado. Pero lo que no sabía era que, para mantener su fuerza, esa serpiente necesitaba alimentarse de sangre fresca todos los días.

Mi esposo y yo éramos las dos almas que más se aborrecían en este mundo. Él me detestaba por haberlo arrebatado del lado de la mujer que amaba; y yo le guardaba rencor, pues su corazón permanecía cautivo de otra dama. Durante ocho años de matrimonio, las palabras que con mayor frecuencia cruzamos no fueron de afecto ni de deber, sino amargas maldiciones. No obstante, el día en que la ciudad sucumbió, todo cambió. Las banderas enemigas ya se divisaban más allá de la puerta interior. Él fue al frente y tomó el camino, interponiendo su cuerpo entre el acero enemigo y mi huida. —Vive —pronunció quedamente. Acto seguido, alzó su espada y no volvió la vista atrás. Las flechas cayeron cual lluvia inclemente. Mientras lo atacaban, volvió la cabeza una vez, solo una vez. Tras aquello, su cuerpo custodió el camino, y nada ni nadie logró cruzarla. —Si existe otra vida… ruego a su Alteza que me conceda la misericordia de pertenecerle a ella. Aquella noche, con la ciudad reducida a cenizas y el pueblo yacente o en fuga, subí a la torre más alta del palacio. Y salté al vacío. Cuando mis ojos volvieron a abrirse, me presenté ante el Rey. —Los reinos del norte requieren una desposada real —dije—. Yo iré. En esta vida, seré yo quien cruce la frontera. En mi vida anterior, él halló la muerte creyendo que le había fallado a ella. Esta vez, no permitiré que tal lamento exista. Tomaré el matrimonio destinado a ella. Portaré la corona labrada para su exilio. Caminaré hacia un destino que ella nunca debería padecer. Que ella siga aquí. Que él la proteja. Que él viva su vida creyendo que, finalmente, ha cumplido su promesa.

Esme believed in this saying for as long as she could remember. These words gave her the strength and courage to live each day as it came until she eventually became tired of making those lemonades and wished for something else. Something—different. But that only seemed wishful thinking. Born as a noble and made an orphan after a rogue attack, Esme became the unwanted pack member of NightCrawler Pack. The once daughter of an alpha became nothing but a slave who answers to the new alpha’s family’ every beck and call. The pack that had once adored her now ridiculed her and laughed at her mistreatment and misery. They seemed to have forgotten how her family had fought for the safety of the pack and the kingdom and even lost their lives for them. But in all this, Esme remained silent. Silently enduring and hoping that one day, her knight in shining armor would come and rescue her. He will show up one day and take her away from the once happy place that has now become her hell. When that day eventually came, she was rejected without a second thought, and she watched as her world came crashing. Hard. Her heart caved in and lost all hope of ever finding happiness again. Or even leaving the pack. After all, what could a wolfless shifter do? Amidst her misery, a ray of light appeared. She was blessed with a second chance, mate. One whose outstretched hand she was hesitant to take, especially after knowing who he was.

Naya, the only daughter of the most powerful Alpha of the Moon Pack, watches her world collapse at the age of fifteen when her parents are brutally executed for treason by King Nolan. Stripped of her title and protection, she is condemned to a life of slavery within the very pack that once revered her. For five years, she survives on scraps, enduring humiliation and cruelty—until the Moon Goddess intervenes and binds her fate to Ethan, her childhood friend. But Ethan rejects her. Though forced to marry her by divine decree, Ethan treats Naya with nothing but disdain, subjecting her to abuse and betrayal. During a mandatory full-moon shifting ceremony, Ethan exposes her inability to shift to Alpha King Benjamin—Nolan’s ruthless son. Declared unfit to remain in the pack, Naya narrowly escapes banishment when Benjamin condemns her instead to palace slavery until she can awaken her wolf. Burning with hatred for the king whose family destroyed her own, Naya views the palace as her chance for revenge. Yet fate takes an unexpected turn. Despite being bound to another, King Benjamin finds himself drawn to Naya’s quiet strength and warmth. Their forbidden connection deepens, blurring the line between vengeance and love. When jealousy and ambition collide, Ethan and the king’s mate, Tanya, conspire to destroy Naya. Kidnapped and poisoned, Naya loses her unborn child, and her trust shatters when deception convinces her that Benjamin has betrayed her. She flees the palace, vowing revenge once more. Months later, Naya returns—disguised, hardened, and ready to strike. But at her public trial, the truth finally comes to light. Betrayals are exposed, enemies unmasked, and Naya must decide whether to cling to vengeance or reclaim the love and destiny that were always meant to be hers.
