Introduction

離婚後、サスサンナ・コリンズは億万長者の相続人であり、著名な建築デザイナーへと変貌を遂げた。愛らしい双子を連れ、かつての夫の会社ビルを三重に取り囲むほどの求婚者たちが列を成していた。

かつて冷酷だった億万長者のアーロン・アボットは、今や嫉妬と切望に苛まれていた。サスサンナが常に自分の心を掴んでいたことに気づき、懇願する。

「サラ、もう一度結婚してくれないか?子供たちを一人で育てるのは辛すぎる」

だが返事を待つ間もなく、様々な業界で活躍する彼女の十人の兄たちが割って入った。

「サスサンナは我が家の唯一の姫だ。彼女を取り戻したいなら、まず俺たちを突破しなければならない」

天才肌の息子は指を折りながら言った。「ママ、パパの資産は僕たちとは比べ物にならないよ。慈善事業に時間を使う必要はないでしょう」

決意に満ちた表情で必死になったアーロンは、サラを腕に抱き寄せ、宣言した。

「限りない資産と、君の望むだけの財産がある。この三年間の借りは、一生かけて返させてくれ」

Chapter 1

スザンナ・アボットはリビングルームのソファに静かに座り、離婚届を握りしめながら、思いに沈んでいた。彼女は目を閉じ、3年前のあの寒い冬の日を思い出した。アーロン・アボットが交通事故で昏睡状態から目覚めたとき、自分が彼女と結婚していることを知ったのだ。

最初から、彼らの結婚は運命づけられていた。彼女は力も影響力もない孤児だったが、アーロンは力と影響力を持つ人物だった。もしマリア・アボットの目に留まるという運命の巡り合わせがなければ、彼らの人生が交わることはなかっただろう。

スザンナは家族と愛情を切望していたが、アーロンは氷のように冷たかった。3年間の結婚生活で、彼らが親密になったのはたった一度、それも偶然だった。

スザンナが妊娠していることを知ったとき、彼女は希望の光を見た。おそらくこの子供が彼らの結婚を完全なものにする絆になるかもしれない。彼女は勇気を振り絞ってアーロンにメッセージを送り、夕食に帰ってくるよう頼んだ。

「アーロン、今夜ファンタジー・キュイジーヌの予約を取りました。一緒に来てくれませんか?重要なお話があるんです」スザンナのメッセージには慎重さが込められていた。

しばらくして、彼女の携帯画面にアーロンの簡潔な返信が表示された:「私も話したいことがある」

スザンナは彼の返事に胸を躍らせた。彼女はめったにおしゃれをしなかったが、今夜はクローゼットからシルクのドレスを取り出し、軽くメイクアップをした。ファンタジー・キュイジーヌは有名なロマンチックなレストランで、スザンナは友人の助けを借りて予約を確保することができた。

夜になり、キャンドルの灯りが揺れ、バイオリンとピアノの柔らかな旋律が空気を満たした。アーロンは少し遅れて到着した。彼はスザンナの向かいの椅子を引き出し、ネクタイを緩めた。

スザンナは期待を込めて微笑んだ。「アーロン、来てくれたのね。あなたの好きな料理を注文したわ。すぐに出てくるはずよ」

アーロンの表情は無表情のままで、スザンナの前に冷たい離婚書類を置いた。「これが離婚書類だ。問題なければ確認して署名してくれ」

スザンナは唖然とし、書類を信じられないという様子で見つめ、絶望の波が彼女を襲った。「アーロン、なぜ突然離婚したいの?私たちの間に何か誤解でもあるの?」

アーロンは冷たく答えた。「誤解はない。そもそも私たちは結婚するべきではなかった。この3年間、十分な時間と機会を与えた」

絶望的になったスザンナは、妊娠のニュースで彼らの結婚を救おうとした。「アーロン、もし私が妊娠していると言ったら?私たちはもうすぐ自分たちの子供を持つのよ。それでも離婚したいの?」

アーロンの目に驚きの色が一瞬よぎった。「妊娠しているのか?前回は事故だったんじゃないのか?処理するように言っただろう?」

スザンナの視線はよろめいた。「つまり、もし私が妊娠していたらということよ」

アーロンはスザンナを疑わしげに調べた後、彼の口調は元の冷たさに戻った。「それでも何も変わらない。私はお前の子供を認めないし、欲しくもない」

彼の言葉はスザンナの心を千の鋭いナイフのように切り裂き、彼女は息もできなくなった。

3年間の結婚生活、別々の寝室で暮らし、スザンナはアーロンが彼女を愛していないことを知っていた。彼女は妻としての義務を果たすために最善を尽くし、優しさで彼に近づくことを望んでいた。しかし彼女はアーロンの冷たさを過小評価していた。彼の心は氷のようで、誰のためにも溶けることはなかった。

彼らの子供さえもアボット家から認められない重荷と見なされていた。涙がスザンナの視界をぼやけさせる中、彼女は本能的に自分のお腹に触れた。

「赤ちゃん、パパはあなたを望んでいないけど、私は一生懸命働いて、世界中の愛をあなたに与えるわ」スザンナは感情に震える声で囁いた。

アーロンは離婚書類を置いて出て行き、スザンナをレストランに一人残した。彼女は永遠とも思える時間、呆然と座っていた。彼女は涙をこらえ、最終的に書類に署名し、厳しい現実を受け入れた。

翌朝、スザンナは騒ぎで目を覚ました。まどろみながら起き上がると、家政婦のカリオペが一人の女性を彼女の寝室に案内しているのが見えた。

「何をしているの?」スザンナは怒りを爆発させた。3年間の結婚生活で、彼女はアボット家でこれほど尊厳を傷つけられたことはなかった。この女性は誰だ?

エリカ・ジョーンズは玄関に立ち、部屋を軽蔑的に見回した。「ここはめちゃくちゃね。私はここにいられないわ。南側の部屋はアーロンと私の新婚スイートにぴったりよ」

「新婚スイート?」スザンナの顔は青ざめた。わずかな希望にすがりながら、彼女は尋ねた。「あなたは誰?」

エリカはスザンナを上から下まで見た。「あなたがスザンナね。私はエリカ、アーロンの婚約者よ」

スザンナの心は凍りついた。追い出されてからたった一日で、アーロンの恋人が現れたことが信じられなかった。「あなたがジョーンズさん。ここで何をしているの?」

エリカの声は傲慢さを滴らせていた。「もちろん、私の結婚式の部屋を準備するためよ!モード叔母さんが好きな部屋を選んでいいって言ったの。あなたの部屋は好きじゃないけど、収納スペースとしては良さそうね。片付けてちょうだい」

スザンナはエリカからの敵意と挑発を感じ取ることができた。彼女はエリカについて知っていた。アーロンの初恋で、アーロンが昏睡状態のときに姿を消した人物だった。噂によれば、ジョーンズ家が彼らの婚約に反対し、二人を引き離したという。今、エリカが戻ってきたことで、スザンナは自分がずっと代役だったことを悟った。エリカの帰還で彼女は追い出されていた。

エリカは傲慢に顎を上げ、すでに気づいていた離婚書類を指さした。「スザンナ、あなたとアーロンが離婚について話し合ったことは知っているわ。早く署名することをお勧めするわ。アーロンを追い詰めすぎると、これまで得たものをすべて失うかもしれないわよ。あなたの家族に何か起こってほしくないでしょう?」

スザンナの心は怒りと痛みでかき乱された。「アーロンがあなたを送って私を脅しに来たの?」

エリカは嘲笑した。「どう思う?アーロンと私は運命だったのよ。予期せぬ事情がなければ、あなたはここにいなかったはずよ!あなたのような力のない女が私たちに何ができるっていうの?」

スザンナは怒り心頭だったが、適切な言葉を見つけるのに苦労した。彼女は、これらの裕福な人々にとって、彼女と彼女の家族が取るに足らないものであることを知っていた。彼女は家族と生まれてくる子供を守らなければならなかった。

「昨日書類に署名したわ。アーロンは言わなかったの?」スザンナは冷たく言った。

エリカは得意げに書類を手に取った。「素晴らしいわ。心配しないで、あなたが去る限り、私はあなたの家族を傷つけないわ」

スザンナは荷物をまとめ始め、彼女の心は未来への希望と過去への別れで満ちていた。彼女は優しくお腹に触れ、囁いた。「赤ちゃん、これからは私たちふたりよ。勇敢に新しい人生に立ち向かいましょう」

スザンナが去ろうとしたとき、エリカは彼女の手にある妊娠検査の紙を一瞥した。彼女の表情は一瞬で変わった。「あなた、妊娠しているの?」

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.
Aiden
Noah Blake was supposed to be a challenge.
A cocky, reckless quarterback with raw talent and no discipline.
But one message had changed everything.
One night on ObeyNet, a stranger with attitude and submission tangled in his words.
And when I saw Noah in person—his fire, his fear, that ache to be seen—
I knew it was him.
He didn’t know who I was. Not yet.
But I was already testing him. Pushing him.
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.

Alpha Cole Redmen is the youngest of six born to Alpha Charles and Luna Sara Mae, leaders of the Red Fang pack. Born prematurely, Alpha Charles rejected him without hesitation as weak and undeserving of his very life. He is reminded daily of his father’s hatred for him paving the way for the rest of his family to become the same.
By adulthood, his father’s hatred and abuse towards him has spilled over into the rest of the pack making him the scapegoat for those with the sadistic need to see him suffer. The rest are simply too afraid to even look his way leaving him little in the way of friends or family to turn to.
Alpha Demetri Black is the leader of a sanctuary pack known as Crimson Dawn. It’s been years since a wolf has made their way to his pack via the warrior’s prospect program but that doesn’t mean he’s not looking for the tell tale signs of a wolf in need of help.
Malnourished and injured upon his arrival, Cole’s anxious and overly submissive demeanor lands him in the very situation he’s desperate to avoid, in the attention of an unknown alpha.
Yet somehow through the darkness of severe illness and injury he runs into the very person he’s been desperate to find since he turned eighteen, his Luna. His one way ticket out of the hell he’s been born into.
Will Cole find the courage needed to leave his pack once and for all, to seek the love and acceptance he’s never had?

One Night. One Mistake. One Lifetime of Consequences.

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.
