The Cheap 4C
Chapter 1
Sacha POV
¡CRACK!
—¡Maldita sea! ¡Es el tercer peine que rompo esta semana!— grité mientras miraba con frustración el trozo de peine roto que aún estaba enredado en mi espeso cabello Afro 4C.
Solté un fuerte suspiro, contemplándome en el espejo mientras tiraba el peine roto en el basurero junto a mis pies.
¿Qué debería hacer con mi cabello ahora?
Toc Toc
Di un salto, pero recordé que ya no estaba sola en mi pequeño apartamento.
—¡Tengo que hacer pipí!— gritó mi hermanita desde el otro lado de la puerta.
—¡Espera!— le respondí y desbloqueé la puerta para dejarla entrar. Corrió hacia el inodoro y hizo lo suyo mientras me miraba.
—¿Mal día para el cabello?— preguntó cuando tiró de la cadena.
—Sí. Otro más. Y rompí otro peine.
—Vaya, vas por el récord— bromeó.
Judy tenía diez años y yo veinte cuando perdimos a nuestros padres en un fatal accidente de coche hace un año. Judy fue llevada por el estado porque decían que yo no era 'apta' para criarla.
Tan pronto como cumplí veintiuno, solicité la custodia y desde entonces la tuve conmigo. Era la única familia que tenía y la amaba profundamente. Haría cualquier cosa por ella.
—Déjame ayudarte a peinarlo— dijo y me senté en silencio en un taburete. Agarró un cepillo y gel y comenzó a peinarme. Y he aquí, hizo un mejor trabajo del que suelo hacer yo.
—¡Ahora date prisa o perderás el autobús para la escuela!— la apuré para que se metiera en la ducha para su baño matutino y fui a la cocina a prepararle su cereal favorito: Lucky Charms.
A las 7:25 A.M, esperé en la parada del autobús con Judy hasta que llegó el autobús escolar. Me aseguraba de que subiera al autobús de manera segura cada mañana antes de tomar el tren hacia mi trabajo en el centro.
Trabajaba de 8:30 A.M a 4:30 P.M en una agencia de telecomunicaciones multimillonaria. Mis tareas diarias generalmente consistían en ingresar datos y contestar el teléfono.
Fiché, dije 'buenos días' a todos los que encontré en el camino al ascensor y subí al primer piso, a mi escritorio, para comenzar mi día.
—Buenos días, Sacha, esto es para ti— dijo mi compañera de trabajo cuando me senté. Su escritorio estaba justo al lado del mío y siempre compartíamos la carga de trabajo que nos daban.
Disfrutaba mi trabajo. Pocas personas podían decir lo mismo. Mi trabajo era simple y básico y pagaba bien.
—Disculpen, todos los empleados del primer piso!
Conocía esa voz en cualquier lugar. Era Tim. El supervisor del primer piso y un dolor de cabeza a veces.
—Hay una reunión muy importante en el décimo piso. ¡Por favor, diríjanse allí ahora mismo!— terminó.
Todos nos levantamos de inmediato y nos metimos en el ascensor como sardinas.
El décimo piso era donde estaban los 'de arriba'. Los que tomaban todas las decisiones aquí y con quienes nunca nos gustaba estar porque nuestros corazones no dejaban de latir con miedo e intimidación.
Todos entramos en la sala de juntas.
El Sr. Mackie estaba sentado en la mesa principal, el hombre a cargo de todas las operaciones. A su derecha, estaba la Srta. Lena Ally, la directora de operaciones, y a la izquierda, estaba el Sr. Hollace Penys —siempre nos burlábamos de su apellido porque se pronunciaba como 'Pene'. Era el director de marketing y asesor financiero.
El Sr. Mackie aclaró su garganta y cruzó los brazos sobre su pecho. Miró hacia una carpeta frente a él y luego nos miró a nosotros.
—La empresa va a hacer algunos recortes— fue directo al grano.
Hubo jadeos de nuestra parte junto con expresiones de sorpresa.
—Hemos tenido problemas financieros— añadió el Sr. Penys.
—Sí. Así que si digo tu nombre, significa que estás despedido— dijo nuevamente el Sr. Mackie y comenzó a llamar nombres.
—Sr. Jeremy Ashton. Srta. Lisa Lopez, Sr. Alex Payne, Srta. Jonna Smith, Srta. Jasmine White...
¡Por favor, no digas mi nombre!
¡Por favor, no digas mi nombre!
El Sr. Mackie continuó llamando nombres y yo seguía esperando no ser mencionada. Observé cómo la sala se vaciaba de caras tristes y ojos llorosos. Todas las personas ya mencionadas recibieron un último cheque de pago y tuvieron que entregar sus credenciales antes de irse.
—Sr. Keshon Thomas, Srta. Daisy Hoppins y por último, Srta. Sacha Rish.
—¿Qué?— dije.
—Estás despedida. Por favor, entrega tu credencial, recoge tu último pago y sal— aclaró Lena Ally.
Escuché que estaba despedida, pero no quería creerlo. No podía permitirme perder mi trabajo cuando tenía una hermanita a la que mantener.
Las lágrimas llenaron mis ojos, mis rodillas se debilitaron y pensé que se me doblarían. Mi cabeza daba vueltas y se sentía ligera.
—Sr. Mackie, por favor. No puedo permitirme ser despedida. Tengo responsabilidades...
—¡Al igual que esta empresa, Srta. Rish!— interrumpió el Sr. Penys.
—Srta. Rish, lo siento. Pero debe hacerse. Ya está decidido. Le deseo lo mejor en otro empleo— dijo el Sr. Mackie.
Asentí con la cabeza y con el poco orgullo que me quedaba, entregué mi credencial, recogí mi último pago y me fui sin mirar atrás.
Tomé el tren hasta un banco, cobré mi cheque y me dirigí a casa. Me quedé llorando en el dormitorio y sintiéndome apenada por mí misma.
¡Casi un año! ¡Casi un año trabajé para esa agencia! Nunca falté ni llegué tarde y ¿así es como me lo agradecen?
Estaba despedida. En otras palabras, me habían echado.
Esa tarde, cuando Judy llegó a casa de la escuela, me encontró acurrucada en el sofá, llenándome la boca de helado.
—Hola, hermana, ¿qué te pasa?
—¿Qué te hace pensar que algo me pasa?— pregunté.
—Porque siempre comes helado cuando estás triste. Dime, ¿qué pasa?
—Me despidieron esta mañana— respondí con sinceridad. Judy era una niña inteligente y seguro haría preguntas hasta saber la verdad.
—¿Despedida? Vaya, eso es duro, hermana. ¿Qué vamos a hacer ahora?
—Tú seguirás yendo a la escuela y yo encontraré otro trabajo. No quiero que te preocupes por esto, Judy. Estaremos bien.
—Está bien. Te quiero—. Se acercó y envolvió sus delgados brazos alrededor de mí.
—Yo también te quiero— respondí. Coloqué el bote de helado en la mesa junto a mí y la abracé fuertemente.
Prometo que estaremos bien.

From Best Friend To Fiancé
I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip.

Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.

Especially not someone like her.

The Biker's Fate
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."

Will Dani finally give her heart to a man who's everything she's been warned about?
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

In despair, Sable left, reclaimed her true identity, and married her childhood neighbor—Lycan King Caelan, nine years her senior and her fated mate. Now Darrell desperately tries to win her back. How will her revenge unfold?
From substitute to queen—her revenge has just begun!
Crossing Lines
Noah
I was here to prove myself—
One last shot at football, at freedom, at a future no one ever thought I’d deserve.
And then I met him.
Coach Aiden Mercer.
Cold. Demanding. Built like a legend and twice as ruthless.
From the first command, I wanted to fight him.
From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.
But this wasn’t just about the game anymore.
He looked at me like he saw through every mask I wore…
And spoke to me in a voice I knew far too well.
The same one that called me baby boy in the darkest corners of the internet.
Now I didn’t know if I wanted to win…
Or just be his.

I knew it was him.
He didn’t know who I was. Not yet.

Breaking him down until he begged for what he swore he didn’t need.
This was not supposed to get personal, but every second he disobeyed made me want to claim him harder.
And if he crossed the line…
I’d make damn sure he never forgot who he belonged to.

The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.
