Introduction

Chapter 1
Eleanor:
Franzi o cenho quando a porta do meu quarto se abriu, sabendo que era Elton, meu noivo, quem estava entrando.
Ele não se deu ao trabalho de bater na porta, ele nunca fazia de qualquer maneira.
Ele caminhou em minha direção, sem se incomodar em dizer uma palavra antes de me agarrar pelo pescoço por trás, percebendo que eu não me incomodei em me virar para encará-lo. Não era como se ele quisesse que eu fizesse isso, se é que ele não acabaria me dobrando sobre a cômoda, me tomando como desejava.
Ele se esfregou contra mim, me fazendo senti-lo através do meu vestido, e eu fechei os olhos, antecipando o que estava por vir.
"Hoje não, neonata", ele sussurrou, sua voz enviando arrepios pela minha espinha. "Estou guardando o melhor para amanhã, quando você for oficialmente minha esposa e eu puder marcá-la e tomá-la do jeito que desejo."
Ele apertou meu pescoço, deixando uma marca roxa, antes de remover a mão e beijar a área. Eu tive que lutar contra o impulso de recuar, sabendo que isso lhe dava o que ele queria. Ele queria que eu enfraquecesse e desmoronasse, e isso não era algo que eu queria lhe dar.
"Eu vim te dar isso", ele disse, dando um passo para trás, me indicando silenciosamente para me virar e encará-lo. Eu fiz como mandado e olhei para cima, meus olhos encontrando os dele, apesar de saber que não era algo que ele gostava. Ele ergueu uma sobrancelha diante do meu comportamento, mas não se deu ao trabalho de comentar, algo que não era típico dele, enquanto abria uma caixa para revelar um colar de esmeraldas. "Um presente de casamento antecipado."
Eu não disse uma palavra enquanto mantinha meus olhos na pedra. Este casamento em si seria a minha ruína, e era algo que ele sabia, e isso era algo que eu não podia permitir. Me virei, sem esperar por sua ordem, e o encarei através do espelho enquanto ele colocava a joia em volta do meu pescoço.
"Não estou gostando da sua atitude hoje", ele disse, apertando o colar em volta do meu pescoço, sabendo que os diamantes deixariam cortes e marcas. Eles estariam curados antes do casamento, era algo que ele tinha confiança, e quer eles curassem ou não, maquiagem sempre era usada para cobrir meus cortes e hematomas, pelo menos, quando ele queria que fossem. Havia momentos em que ele se recusava a me deixar cobri-los, querendo mostrar sua força do jeito que fazia. "Mas vou te desculpar por estar nervosa. Você sabe, é o seu grande dia amanhã."
Ele afrouxou o colar em volta do meu pescoço, e não pude deixar de tremer quando os diamantes foram retirados da minha pele ferida. Meu pescoço sangrava, mas não me movi ou respondi enquanto ele fechava o colar em volta dele.
Ele me olhou através do espelho, e eu olhei para baixo na cômoda, evitando seus olhos. Isso era o máximo que eu podia desafiar ele. Considerando que ele escolheu comentar, eu sabia que um movimento errado acabaria me custando muito mais do que eu poderia pagar, e não tinha ninguém para me defender; portanto, eu sabia que precisava ficar quieta e obediente se quisesse que a noite passasse.
"Entendeu bem a sua lição, boa menina", ele disse, sua voz acima de um sussurro antes de baixar a mão para minha coxa, cavando os dedos nela, me fazendo franzir. "Essa marca roxa vai te ensinar a não pensar em me desafiar novamente, e acho que não preciso te lembrar do que acontecerá quando você o fizer."
Mantive meus olhos na cômoda, lutando contra a vontade de retrucar ou ceder ao meu lobo que implorava para eu parar de desafiá-lo. Desafiá-lo era a única coisa que me mantinha em frente. Isso me lembrava que eu era, apesar de tudo o que estava acontecendo, uma alma livre que ainda queria lutar. E isso era algo que eu não ia deixar que ele me privasse.
Ele caminhou em direção à porta, sem se incomodar em esperar que eu respondesse, sabendo que eu não o faria. Ele abriu a porta assim que olhei para minha própria reflexão. Coloquei a mão na joia, e ele soltou uma risada divertida.
"Descanse, pequena. Você terá tempo suficiente para admirar o colar amanhã. Mas eu acredito que você poderia usar todo o descanso que puder conseguir", ele disse, seu tom zombeteiro, fazendo meu peito arder. "Não que isso faça muita diferença de qualquer maneira."
Ele saiu e bateu a porta atrás de si. Fiquei encarando a porta por alguns segundos antes de arrancar o colar do meu pescoço e jogá-lo na cômoda.
Meu coração disparava contra o peito, e balancei a cabeça diante do meu destino. Isso não era algo que eu queria para mim, ceder ao homem não era algo que eu queria.
Olhei para a janela, sabendo que era minha única chance. Se eu fosse me casar com o homem, então eu estaria condenando minha vida a ser prisioneira do homem que não queria nada além de me machucar, e isso não era algo que eu queria viver.
"Você pode encontrar outra pessoa para brincar, Elton", sussurrei para mim mesma enquanto prendia meu cabelo em um coque, lembrando-me das lutas pelas quais passei até este momento. Seis anos da minha vida foram dedicados ao homem, e nesses seis anos, tudo o que vi foram lágrimas e dor.
Caminhei em direção à janela e a abri lentamente. A árvore que minha mãe e eu plantamos anos atrás antes dela falecer agora tinha dois andares de altura, seus galhos alcançando a minha janela. Era a única coisa que ela conseguiu me dar, a única planta que poderia disfarçar meu cheiro.
Arranquei algumas folhas e esfreguei meu pescoço e pulso com elas antes de segurar meu vestido, sabendo que era minha única chance. "Não vou acabar com o mesmo destino que o seu, mamãe. Prometi que não o faria, e vou lutar para cumprir essa promessa."
Olhei para o chão, sabendo que era minha única chance. Se encolher não me levaria a lugar nenhum. E, portanto, fiz a única coisa que conseguia pensar.
Saltei...

My Marked Luna
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
"You're soaking for me, baby," he is pleased. He moves his fingers in and out, making me moan in pleasure.
"Hmm," But suddenly, they are gone. I cry as he leaves my body aching for him. He switches our position within a second, so I'm under him. My breath is shallow, and my senses are incoherent as I anticipate his hardness in me. The feeling is fantastic.
"Please," I beg. I want him. I need it so badly.
