Chapter 1

¡Dolor, un dolor insoportable!

Una agonía intensa se extendía por todo el cuerpo de Steven Rogers.

Esto no era solo una sensación; era una dura realidad que le estaba ocurriendo.

En ese momento, estaba siendo pisoteado sin piedad por amigos y vecinos en quienes una vez confió y a quienes ayudó. Sus puños, pies e incluso los palos en sus manos caían sobre él.

En este apocalipsis con escasos recursos, ¡ni siquiera consideraron la ayuda que Steven les había dado antes de atacarlo!

En sus últimos momentos, vagamente vio a su diosa, Alice Sanders, de pie al fondo de la multitud, gritando lastimosamente:

—¡Yo fui quien lo hizo abrir la puerta! ¡Tienen que darme una porción extra de los suministros!

Fue esta mujer quien engañó a Steven para que abriera la puerta y luego causó su muerte.

Steven la miró, sus ojos llenos de odio y arrepentimiento.

Solo podía culparse a sí mismo por ser demasiado tonto y bondadoso, lo que lo llevó a convertirse en un cordero sacrificial en este apocalipsis.

Cómo deseaba que todo pudiera empezar de nuevo.

Si se le diera otra oportunidad, no mostraría piedad a nadie; ¡viviría solo para sí mismo!

La visión de Steven se oscureció rápidamente y perdió el conocimiento.

Sin embargo, en el siguiente momento, de repente abrió los ojos y se sentó en el sofá.

La escena infernal que acababa de experimentar, el dolor insoportable, era difícil de olvidar.

Steven jadeaba, su cuerpo entero rápidamente empapado en sudor.

—¿Qué está pasando? ¿No me mataron esos vecinos despiadados?

Después de recuperar la compostura, Steven comenzó a observar su entorno.

Este lugar le resultaba familiar; era su propia casa.

La temperatura confortable en el aire lo sorprendió.

En diciembre de 2050, la Tierra fue afectada por una explosión de supernova a 500,000 años luz de distancia, dando paso a una tormenta fría global.

Las temperaturas globales cayeron en picado, y en Starlight City, donde vivía Steven, las temperaturas diarias rondaban los menos sesenta a setenta grados Fahrenheit, con tormentas de nieve que duraban un mes, enterrando toda la ciudad.

Se decía que en la parte norte del Reino de Astralium, las temperaturas incluso alcanzaban un aterrador menos cien grados Fahrenheit, y la tierra estaba completamente enterrada en hielo y nieve.

Varias especies se extinguieron a gran escala, y hasta los humanos vieron una tasa de mortalidad superior al 95% en este desastre.

Steven se levantó y tomó una botella de agua del refrigerador, bebiendo más de la mitad de un trago.

Aunque el agua refrigerada estaba muy fría, ahora sabía tan bien que casi lo hizo llorar.

En el apocalipsis, la única forma en que la gente podía conseguir agua era salir, desafiando el frío extremo de menos sesenta a setenta grados, y cavar nieve para derretirla en agua.

Tal comportamiento podía fácilmente llevar a la congelación hasta la muerte.

Después de beber el agua, Steven revisó su teléfono.

Mostraba la fecha "12 de noviembre."

Aún quedaba todo un mes antes de que llegara el apocalipsis.

—Parece que he renacido.

Steven respiró hondo y rápidamente entendió lo que había sucedido.

Esa experiencia de un mes no podía haber sido un sueño, especialmente el dolor de ser desmembrado; era demasiado real.

Steven levantó la cabeza, sintiéndose inmensamente agradecido por su nueva oportunidad de vida.

Al mismo tiempo, un destello agudo brilló en sus ojos.

Recordaba claramente a aquellos que causaron su muerte.

En esta vida, estaba decidido a vivir bien y ya no mostraría piedad a esas bestias.

Además, mientras aseguraba su propia seguridad, tenía que vengarse severamente de esas personas despreciables.

Pero por ahora, Steven necesitaba considerar cómo sobrevivir al apocalipsis que llegaría en un mes.

Las condiciones de vida de Steven eran relativamente buenas.

Sus padres habían fallecido temprano, y él heredó una casa de 1,300 pies cuadrados en Starlight City.

También tenía más de $300,000 en ahorros, lo cual se consideraría bastante cómodo en tiempos normales.

Pero con el apocalipsis acercándose, el mundo enfrentaría una enorme escasez de recursos.

Con solo el dinero que tenía, no sería suficiente para sostener su vida por mucho tiempo.

Después de todo, sobrevivir requería una gran cantidad de suministros.

Dada la oportunidad de prepararse con anticipación, Steven no solo quería sobrevivir; quería una cierta calidad de vida en el futuro.

La comida y el entretenimiento debían ser considerados. De lo contrario, con el tiempo, su estado mental colapsaría fácilmente.

Además, las armas y el equipo eran imprescindibles. Solo con ellos Steven podría asegurar su seguridad y completar su venganza contra los vecinos.

Justo entonces, una luz blanca apareció repentinamente ante los ojos de Steven.

Pensó que su ojo derecho estaba un poco borroso, así que se llevó la mano para frotarlo.

Pero de repente, una idea extraña surgió en su cerebro.

Parecía que esta luz blanca era parte de él, y la información sobre la luz blanca apareció en su mente.

Con un pensamiento, la conciencia de Steven entró instantáneamente en la luz blanca.

Una vez dentro, se encontró en un enorme y vasto espacio blanco.

El área dentro era desconocida, solo una gran extensión de vacío.

—¿Es este el espacio extradimensional?

—Parece que después de renacer, tengo algunas habilidades especiales.

Steven se alegró instantáneamente.

Parecía que los rayos gamma habían causado una mutación en su cuerpo, dándole poderes extraordinarios.

Con este enorme espacio, almacenar suministros para el apocalipsis sería mucho más fácil.

Sin embargo, Steven quería saber cuánto podía almacenar el espacio y si había alguna limitación en los objetos que podía contener.

Su conciencia regresó inmediatamente a su habitación, y comenzó a intentar colocar objetos de su casa en el espacio.

Empezó con una taza de té y una palangana, que se colocaron fácilmente dentro.

Steven luego intentó poner electrodomésticos más grandes en el espacio.

Televisor, refrigerador, lavadora, computadora, aire acondicionado, aspiradora.

El espacio blanco aceptó todo sin dudar, llevándose todos estos objetos.

Además, con solo un pensamiento, Steven podía recuperar objetos del espacio.

Sin embargo, los objetos sometidos a fuerzas externas fuertes y que no existían independientemente eran difíciles de almacenar en el espacio.

Por ejemplo, cuando intentó arrancar una tabla del suelo, el espacio extradimensional no tuvo ninguna reacción.

—El espacio extradimensional parece tener muchas reglas que necesito explorar lentamente.

—¡Pero solo tener este enorme espacio para almacenar objetos me permite acumular una gran cantidad de recursos!

Se lamió los labios, formando un plan audaz en su mente.

Steven trabajaba como supervisor en el almacén sur de Walmart.

Como el supermercado más grande del mundo, Walmart tiene una amplia gama de productos.

En el Reino de Astralium, tenía tres almacenes gigantes: el almacén central, el almacén sur y el almacén norte.

Estos almacenes eran enormes, especialmente el almacén sur.

Construido en 2040, tenía 5,000 pies de largo y 2,300 pies de ancho, ¡cubriendo más de un millón de pies cuadrados! ¡Era el almacén más grande del mundo!

Una vez fue aclamado por el presidente del distrito de Woodvale de Walmart como la octava maravilla del mundo.

Por supuesto, el mundo oficialmente reconocía solo siete maravillas, y la octava maravilla era un título autoproclamado con miles de contendientes.

Pero el tamaño y la capacidad de almacenamiento del almacén sur realmente encabezaban el campo de almacenamiento global.

Su reserva podría abastecer a varias ciudades con millones de personas durante una semana.

En otras palabras, si Steven pudiera vaciar un almacén y transferir los suministros a su espacio,

no solo estaría asegurado de por vida; ¡tendría suficientes suministros para diez vidas!

El punto clave era que el control de calidad de Walmart era muy estricto.

No había productos de baja calidad o marcas desconocidas en el almacén.

Ya fuera comida, artículos para el hogar o artículos de lujo, todos eran de marcas reconocidas.

Si Steven pudiera vaciar un almacén de Walmart, no tendría que preocuparse por los suministros cuando llegara el apocalipsis, y podría vivir muy cómodamente.

Como supervisor de almacén, Steven estaba extremadamente familiarizado con cada estante, equipo de vigilancia y horario del personal en el almacén.

Vaciar el almacén no sería una tarea difícil para él.

Con este plan en mente, Steven se sintió mucho más tranquilo.

Justo entonces, el estómago de Steven gruñó en protesta.

Se tocó el estómago y miró la pizza en la mesa.

Steven dudó por un momento, luego sonrió y sacudió la cabeza, decidiendo prescindir de la comida para llevar.

—En un mes, llegará el apocalipsis. Debería disfrutar de tantas cosas buenas como pueda ahora, o podría no tener la oportunidad de nuevo. ¿Por qué ser tacaño conmigo mismo?

Habiendo soportado un mes de frío y hambre, ahora estaba ansioso por comer algo caliente y delicioso.

El dinero ya no tenía uso para él.

Después del fin del mundo, el dinero se convertiría en papel sin valor, así que mejor gastarlo todo ahora para evitar desperdiciarlo.

Steven se dio la vuelta con una actitud despreocupada, listo para encontrar un restaurante de alta gama que antes había sido reacio a visitar y tener una comida abundante.

“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.

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.
