Chapter 1
In een schemerige kamer hing de lucht zwaar van de geur van alcohol. Natalie Teeger duwde de deur open en hoorde vaag het zware ademen van een man. Ze strompelde naar het bed, maar voordat ze iets kon zeggen, werd ze met een krachtige ruk naar beneden getrokken. Natalie viel op het bed, volledig buiten controle.
Een heet lichaam drukte zich tegen haar aan, en instinctief riep ze uit: "Nee." Met de woorden van Alice Cullen in gedachten sloot ze haar ogen, terwijl ze de tranen en het gevoel van vernedering probeerde te onderdrukken.
De man trok haar in zijn armen en voelde haar trillen. "Ontspan je, wees niet bang," zei hij met een hese stem. "Ik zal voor je zorgen." Terwijl hij sprak, landden zijn brandende kussen op haar wangen.
Natalie, die nog nooit met een man was geweest, kon alleen maar vertrouwen op de instincten van haar lichaam om op hem te reageren. Halfdronken duwde de man zichzelf in haar onvoorbereide lichaam, waardoor ze zijn armen in pijn vastgreep. Hij pauzeerde, blijkbaar wachtend tot ze zich aan hem had aangepast, en begon toen heftig te bewegen. Haar borsten stuiterden mee op zijn ritme, en hij kon het niet weerstaan om eraan te zuigen. Natalie kreunde, haar lichaam werd rood en slap onder hem.
Na wat een eeuwigheid leek, gromde de man, en Natalie voelde een hete stroom in haar. Hij viel uitgeput bovenop haar en viel al snel in slaap. Natalie, net zo uitgeput, dwong zichzelf om rechtop te zitten, haar verspreide kleren te verzamelen en haar spullen haastig in te pakken. In haar haast pakte ze per ongeluk een diamanten hanger op.
Op haar lip bijtend keek ze terug naar de slapende man. De deken was naar zijn middel gezakt, waardoor zijn gespierde torso en gebeeldhouwde gelaatstrekken zichtbaar werden. Ze durfde niet te blijven en verliet snel de kamer. Als dienstmeisje voor de familie Cullen leek ze sprekend op Alice Cullen, de oudste dochter van de familie. Alice vond voortdurend manieren om haar te vernederen, en deze keer had ze Natalie gedwongen om met een man te slapen. Voor haar gehospitaliseerde moeder en de oplopende medische rekeningen had Natalie geen andere keuze dan toe te stemmen.
Aan het einde van de gang wachtte Alice, perfect gekleed. "Alice, het is gebeurd. Het geld dat je beloofde," zei Natalie zacht, terwijl ze nerveus aan haar shirt plukte.
Alice' minachtende ogen vielen op de sporen op Natalie's nek, waardoor ze haar tanden op elkaar klemde. Deze nacht had van haar moeten zijn, maar ze was geen maagd meer. Natalie had de betere deal gekregen. Alice haalde een bankkaart tevoorschijn en gooide die naar haar, waarschuwend: "Als er iets uitlekt over vanavond, kom je er niet mee weg."
Natalie knikte begrijpend. Ze wilde ook niet dat iemand dit te weten kwam. Tevreden draaide Alice zich om en liep de kamer in.
De volgende ochtend opende Adrian Howard zijn ogen en ging rechtop zitten zonder zijn shirt aan. Zijn verwarde haar en gebeeldhouwde gelaatstrekken straalden een aura van autoriteit en adel uit. Zijn blik viel op de vrouw die naast hem sliep.

“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.
Genevieve loses a bet she can’t afford to pay. In a compromise, she agrees to convince any man her opponent chooses to go home with her that night. What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.
From Best Friend To Fiancé
I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip.
“I don’t just want to fuck you—I want to keep you. You’re my favorite sin, and I’ll commit it again and again until you understand you’re mine.” His lips twitched a little. “You’ve always been mine, Savannah.”

A weeklong wedding in New Hope. One mansion full of guests. And a very bitter maid of honor.
To survive it, Savannah brings a date—her charming, clean-cut best friend, Roman Blackwood. The one man who’s always had her back. He owes her a favor, and pretending to be her fiancé? Easy.
Until fake kisses start to feel real.
Now Savannah’s torn between keeping up the act… or risking everything for the one man she was never supposed to fall for.
Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother
"What is wrong with me?
Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?
It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.
He’s my boyfirend’s brother.
This is Tyler’s family.
I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.

Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
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 her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.

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."

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.
