Introduction
Ce qu'il trouva cependant, enfoui la tête la première dans les placards de la maison arrière, n'était pas un raton laveur.
Les yeux écarquillés, la bouche vulgaire et maigre, la fille était la dernière chose à laquelle il s'attendait. Et tout autant la force et la profondeur avec lesquelles sa beauté le frappa.
Mais peu importe sa beauté, elle avait essayé de le voler, alors il fit ce qui était juste. Il la jeta sur son épaule pour un interrogatoire musclé. Les choses tournèrent cependant très mal lorsque la fille s'enfuit. Vingt mille Francs de son argent partis avec elle !
Kara Kingsley est douée pour fuir. En fait, elle l'a fait toute sa vie. Fuir son beau-père, la police, son propre père, des voyous, elle a tout fait, et elle pense vraiment qu'un prix devrait être décerné pour une telle habileté à fuir. Alors, quand un grand homme des cavernes chauvin qui suppose pouvoir la garder immobile en disant "assis" arrive, elle lui montre ce qu'elle sait faire de mieux. Fuir. Et des milliers de Francs plus riche ! Le problème, cependant, survient lorsqu'il la retrouve. Peut-être qu'elle peut encore le distancer, mais comment... comment diable pourra-t-elle distancer ces étranges sentiments qu'il lui fait éprouver ?

Chapter 1
La faim tordait son estomac, envoyant une douleur sourde à travers son abdomen. Kara serra son ventre en jetant un coup d’œil autour du coin de la petite maison ombragée. La douleur de la faim était devenue très familière pour elle et pourtant, elle n'en était jamais moins douloureuse.
Elle mordit sa lèvre inférieure, concentrée, en écoutant si quelqu'un approchait, sachant très bien que si quelqu'un la surprenait, elle passerait un mauvais quart d'heure. Pas qu'elle s'en soucie vraiment, sa vie étant devenue un enfer depuis longtemps, elle pouvait bien en tirer un sandwich.
Nerveusement, elle jeta un regard en arrière vers les bois sombres derrière elle, ses mèches noires indomptées fouettant dans le vent. Le vent hurlait autour d'elle, rendant plus difficile d'entendre quoi que ce soit à l'intérieur de la petite maison.
Les expériences amères du passé lui avaient appris que courir à l'aveuglette dans n'importe quelle situation était une recette pour les flics et la prison, et à seulement vingt-trois ans, c'était vraiment la dernière chose qu'elle voulait.
Sa bouche ronde se poussa en une moue réfléchie alors qu'elle fronçait les sourcils, scrutant la zone. Elle venait de s'échapper des bois, encore une fois, quand elle avait aperçu cette maison.
Elle ne l'avait pas vraiment vue de près et ne serait pas surprise de découvrir qu'il s'agissait d'un ranch entier avec des chevaux et tout le tralala. Ce ne serait pas si mal, n'est-ce pas ? Cela signifierait que les propriétaires seraient trop occupés pour la remarquer si elle entrait discrètement, non ?
Avant que Kara ne puisse réfléchir à la brillance de sa propre logique, son estomac gronda monstrueusement dans son état d'humeur et Kara décida qu'il était temps de bouger.
Serrant son sac à dos presque vide, elle contourna la maison, silencieuse sur ses pieds bottés. Elle atteignit l'avant et s'arrêta. Il y avait une vaste étendue de terrain vert et à environ vingt-cinq mètres de là où elle s'était arrêtée, se dressait une maison extrêmement grande. Eh bien, elle semblait grande de son point de vue en tout cas. Ses lèvres s'écartèrent et ses yeux s'agrandirent alors qu'elle regardait l'arrière de cette belle grande maison.
« Les fils de bourgeois doivent être bourrés de fric... » souffla-t-elle. Bientôt, cependant, elle se rappela ce qu'elle faisait là. Elle devait encore passer par la petite maison à l'arrière et espérer trouver de la nourriture à emporter. Mais…
Son regard incertain retourna à la demeure à l'avant de la grande propriété. C'était définitivement la maison de quelque riche type, pensa-t-elle. Si elle se faisait attraper, le vieux pruneau ridé n'hésiterait probablement pas à appeler tous les flics de France sur elle. Kara fit la moue en regardant la maison.
Tout ce qu'elle voulait, c'était un sandwich, certainement... certainement, il pourrait avoir pitié ?
Décidant de prendre le risque, elle se précipita vers l'avant de la petite maison ressemblant à un cottage. Elle avait une grande porte en bois qui semblait à moitié rongée par des fourmis ou d'autres parasites dégoûtants.
"Ça devrait être facile..." murmura-t-elle pour elle-même en posant ses mains sur la porte. Ayant initialement prévu de l'ouvrir discrètement, Kara poussa un cri lorsque le vieux morceau de bois s'effondra dans ses mains, le reste s'écrasant bruyamment sur le sol. "Merde !" chuchota-t-elle alors que son cœur s'emballait comme un cheval effrayé.
Elle devait bouger. Cette vieille chose pourrie s'était écrasée assez bruyamment et ce vieux riche qui possédait la propriété était probablement en route, fusil à la main.
Kara se précipita dans la petite maison sombre. Elle avait l'air abandonnée de l'extérieur, seul le bon Dieu savait ce qu'elle trouverait réellement à l'intérieur. Malgré l'état de la porte, l'intérieur était assez propre. Elle passa devant une pièce vide, probablement ce qui devait être une sorte de salon. L'espace était assez grand. Elle et six autres filles auraient facilement pu y dormir confortablement. Ne s'arrêtant pas pour réfléchir à des arrangements de vie inexistants, Kara se précipita dans la petite cuisine.
Il y avait quelques chaises en bois et une table dans un coin. Elle les regarda, se souvenant de son enfance et des heures qu'elle passait à une table très similaire. Dessiner, peindre... pleurer. Elle soupira.
Ce n'est pas le moment, ma chérie.
Se secouant mentalement, Kara continua. Tout ici était couvert de poussière, mais elle s'en fichait. Si elle pouvait trouver quelque chose de comestible, n'importe quoi, et avant sa date d'expiration, elle serait reconnaissante. Elle posa son sac sur la petite table poussiéreuse de la cuisine et se précipita vers les placards marron. Elle ouvrit les portes des placards, ses yeux cherchant avidement.
Rien.
"Quoi ?" souffla-t-elle incrédule. "Rien ? Tu ne peux pas... tu ne peux pas être sérieux..."
Kara chercha plus intensément, ouvrant chaque porte de placard. Seulement pour ne trouver que des toiles d'araignées. La faim brûlait dans son estomac.
Mon Dieu, elle devait sortir de là avant que quelqu'un ne vienne enquêter sur le bruit de la porte qui s'était écrasée. Avec un grognement frustré, elle attrapa son sac à dos sur la table de la cuisine, le fermant en se tournant pour sortir en courant.
La chose suivante que Kara sut était une collision douloureuse avec ce qui ressemblait à la Grande Muraille de Chine. Son corps mince fut projeté en arrière jusqu'à ce qu'elle atterrisse sur son derrière vêtu de denim. Elle leva les yeux avec un regard furieux, seulement pour que son regard se fige devant la vue qui s'offrait à elle.
Non, ce n'était pas un vieux pruneau méchant et ridé avec un fusil. C'était une fantaisie d'homme aux yeux gris et impassibles.
Avec un fusil.

“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.

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

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.
