Ein Intimer Fremder: Die Kämpfe einer Einsamen Ehefrau
Scarlett Langley
Introduction
Am Abend, als George von einer weiteren zweimonatigen Geschäftsreise zurückkam, schleppte er seinen müden Körper zur Tür, aber Ellie kam nicht wie üblich aus der Küche gelaufen. Er wunderte sich und rief nach ihr, aber es kam keine Antwort.
Er ging ins Schlafzimmer und sah, dass die normalerweise leere Kommode voller Hautpflegeprodukte, mehrere Lippenstifte und zwei Flaschen Parfüm war. George runzelte die Stirn, setzte sich auf die Bettkante, nahm seine Brille ab und starrte auf eine Mitgliedskarte eines Latin Dance Trainingszentrums auf der Kommode.

Chapter 1
Nachdem sie das Abendessen bei ihren Eltern verschlungen hatte, stieg Ellie Baker gegen 20 Uhr in den Bus nach Hause. Der Bus war so gut wie leer, die meisten Sitze waren frei. Sie ging zu dem Doppelsitz in der Nähe der hinteren Tür und ließ sich am Fenster nieder.
Es war Sommer, also blieb es länger hell, aber die Straßenlaternen waren schon an, und die Neonlichter der Geschäfte summten und flackerten, als hätten sie zu viel Kaffee getrunken.
Ellie starrte aus dem Fenster, ihr Kopf schwirrte von all dem Geplauder von Herrn und Frau Baker. Außerdem konnte sie nicht aufhören daran zu denken, dass Fionas Baby in nur zwei Tagen einen Monat alt sein würde.
Fiona hatte erst vor einem Jahr geheiratet, und jetzt hatte sie ein einmonatiges Baby. Ellie hingegen war seit sechs Jahren verheiratet, und es war immer noch kein Baby in Sicht. Sie erzählte allen, dass weder sie noch George physiologische Probleme hätten, dass George nur mit Arbeit überhäuft sei und ständig auf Geschäftsreisen unterwegs. Sie hatten beschlossen, noch ein paar Jahre zu warten, bis sich sein Job beruhigt hatte, bevor sie sich auf das Elternsein einließen.
Anfangs waren ihre Familien damit einverstanden und machten kein großes Aufhebens, aber im Laufe der Jahre, sie konnte nicht genau sagen, wann es passierte, begannen alle, sich "Sorgen" um sie zu machen, was sie allmählich nervöser machte.
Ellie war tief in ihren Gedanken versunken, als sie plötzlich spürte, wie sich jemand neben sie setzte. Instinktiv drehte sie den Kopf und war völlig überwältigt von dem, was sie sah.
Es war ein junger Mann, wahrscheinlich Anfang zwanzig, der ein einfaches hellblaues kurzärmliges Hemd trug.
Er hatte ein unglaublich attraktives Gesicht, mit so perfekten Zügen, dass jeder zweimal hinschauen würde. In der heutigen Sprache war er definitiv "heiß" oder "attraktiv."
Aber was Ellie wirklich aus der Fassung brachte, war nicht nur sein gutes Aussehen. Es war die Tatsache, dass die Seite seines Gesichts unheimlich ihrem Ehemann George Stone ähnelte. Sogar seine sanfte und kultivierte Ausstrahlung war genau richtig.
Ihr Geist konnte nicht anders, als an das erste Treffen mit George zurückzudenken. Es war, als ob alle Zellen in ihrem Körper zurück zu jenem Nachmittag im Park vor sechs Jahren transportiert wurden, als der Direktor George ihr vorstellte. Es war ein seltsames, fast surrealistisches Gefühl...
Der Typ muss gespürt haben, dass Ellie ihn anstarrte, denn er drehte den Kopf und schenkte ihr ein verlegenes, aber höfliches Lächeln.
"Äh... Ist dieser Platz besetzt?" fragte er, seine Stimme warm und irgendwie verspielt.
Seine Frage riss Ellie zurück in die Realität. Sie riss sich zusammen und spürte, wie ihre Wangen heiß wurden.
"Nein, der ist frei," antwortete sie leise und schüttelte den Kopf.
"Oh, ich dachte, hier säße jemand," sagte er, ein leichtes Lächeln auf den Lippen.
Ellie wusste nicht, wie sie darauf reagieren sollte, also biss sie sich nur verlegen auf die Lippe und drehte sich wieder zum Fenster.
Aber im Spiegelbild des Fensters konnte sie sehen, dass der Typ sie immer noch ansah. Sie konnte sogar seinen Blick spüren, was sie sehr unwohl machte.
Sie runzelte die Stirn und rückte instinktiv näher ans Fenster, fast so, dass ihre Schulter dagegen drückte. Sie hob ihre rechte Hand, um ihren linken Arm zu halten, und verschränkte leicht die Arme vor der Brust in einer defensiven Haltung.
Diese Haltung ließ den Blick des Mannes ihrem schwarzen Haar folgen, vorbei an ihren Ohren und hinunter zu der hellen Haut ihres Nackens, die aus dem Kragen ihres Hemdes hervorlugte. Er blinzelte und schaute schließlich weg.
Ihre Ohren wurden rot vor Verlegenheit.
Obwohl der Typ im Spiegelbild des Fensters weggeschaut hatte, fühlte sich Ellie aus irgendeinem Grund immer noch unwohl. Sie konnte nicht anders, als ihre Aufmerksamkeit auf ihn zu richten, obwohl er sie nicht mehr ansah.
Nach einer gefühlten Ewigkeit und drei weiteren Haltestellen erreichte sie endlich ihr Ziel. Sie atmete erleichtert auf, als der Bus zum Stehen kam, und stand schnell auf.
Der Typ war höflich; er wusste, dass sie aussteigen würde, und drehte sich nicht einfach zur Seite. Stattdessen stand er auf und trat zur Seite, um ihr Platz zu machen, und schenkte ihr ein Lächeln.
Ellie biss sich wieder auf die Lippe und brachte ein Lächeln zustande, das kaum als solches durchging, als Antwort auf seine Höflichkeit.
Mit einer Hand, die den Riemen ihrer Tasche auf ihrer Schulter hielt, senkte sie den Kopf und ging aus ihrem Sitz.
Als sie an dem Typen vorbeiging, bemerkte sie, dass er groß war, fast so groß wie ihr Ehemann George.
Sie presste leicht die Lippen zusammen, stieg schnell aus dem Bus und ging ohne einen Moment zu zögern in Richtung ihres Wohngebiets. Sie verlangsamte erst, als sie hörte, wie der Bus davonfuhr.
Endlich drehte sie sich um, um zurückzuschauen, aber der Bus war schon längst weg.

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.”

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.

I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.

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.

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.

Crossing Lines
Noah
I was here to prove myself—

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…

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.
