Chapter 1
Mainit na mainit ang araw, ang araw ay tila nag-aapoy sa taas, ala una ng hapon, ang pinaka mainit na oras, si Xiu Yan Huan ay may bitbit na bag, pinapahid ang pawis sa kanyang noo gamit ang kamay. Ang kanyang mga mata ay bahagyang nakapikit, at ang kanyang buhok na nakalugay sa noo ay dumikit sa kanyang mukha. Marahil dahil sa sobrang init, ang kanyang magandang mukha ay namumula, na nagmumukhang mas kaakit-akit.
Ang kanyang kagandahan, sariwang mukha, at matangkad na pangangatawan ay nagiging dahilan para mapatingin ang mga kalalakihan sa kampus nang dalawang beses.
Hindi gaanong mahirap ang mga kurso sa unibersidad, at sa ikalawang taon ay wala nang mga night class. Bukod pa rito, ang mga estudyante dito ay kadalasan may kaya sa buhay o kaya’y matatalino, na hindi kayang suwayin ng mga guro. Ang mga matatalino naman ay masunurin, kaya’t hindi na gaanong binabantayan ng mga guro.
Si Xiu Yan Huan ay nasa ikalawang taon na. Dahil walang klase sa hapon, pumunta siya sa supermarket para bumili ng ilang pang-araw-araw na gamit. Hindi siya mahilig mag-shopping; kung hindi lang talaga kailangan, hindi siya lalabas sa ganitong kainit na panahon.
“Wow, ang ganda!” Sa lilim ng puno sa di kalayuan, may dalawang lalaking may angking karisma. Ang isa ay nakasandal sa puno, tila may iniisip at hindi pinapansin ang paligid.
Ang kasama naman niya ay tila sabik na sabik, pinapalo ang kanyang braso at tinuturo ang direksyon ni Xiu Yan Huan.
Naiinis si Gu Jin Chen sa ingay ng kasama, kaya bahagyang tumingin sa tinuturo nito. Isang tingin lang at bumalik na siya sa dati niyang posisyon.
“Ano? Ang ganda, di ba? Ang ganda niya, di ba?” Ang sabi ni Gu Yun Fan na tila nakadiskubre ng bagong mundo, na parang naghihintay ng papuri mula sa kasama.
Ngunit biglang naging seryoso ang mukha niya, hinawakan ang kanyang baba at nagtanong sa kanyang kuya, “Bakit hindi ko maalala na may ganitong kagandang babae sa ating unibersidad? Masyado ba siyang low profile o bagong lipat?”
Nakatitig si Gu Yun Fan kay Xiu Yan Huan, tila sinusuri ang bawat detalye ng kanyang mukha.
“Hindi ko alam.” Matagal na siyang graduate, paano niya malalaman kung bagong lipat ito.
Walang interes na magtagal pa, tinitigan ni Gu Jin Chen ang kanyang kapatid na tila walang alam, at nagdesisyong umalis.
“Kuya, hintayin mo ako!” Sigaw ni Gu Yun Fan habang tumatakbo para habulin ang kanyang kuya. Wala rin namang saysay na magpaiwan, kaya’t sumunod na lang siya.
Hindi napansin ni Xiu Yan Huan na may mga matang nakatitig sa kanya. Ang gusto lang niya ngayon ay makabalik sa dormitoryo at magpahangin sa aircon. Pagdating niya sa dormitoryo, ibinagsak niya ang mga gamit sa kama at humiga nang walang pakialam sa kanyang hitsura. Sobrang pagod na siya.
“Xiu Yan, nag-shopping ka? Bakit hindi mo ako sinama?” Tanong ni An Ran, ang kanyang roommate, na kakalabas lang ng banyo.
“Di ba pumunta ka para alamin ang tungkol sa lecture ni Chen? Ayoko namang istorbohin ka.”
Mahilig si An Ran sa mga gwapong lalaki, isang certified na fangirl. Kapag may nakita siyang gwapo, tila nagiging baliw siya. Kaya’t hindi na niya pinilit na isama ito.
Ang lecture na tinatanong ni An Ran ay tila sikat. Maraming tao ang nag-uusap tungkol dito. Sinasabi nilang gwapo at mahusay si Chen, na graduate din ng kanilang unibersidad. Bagaman mayaman ang pamilya, pinili niyang maging doktor. Hindi interesado si Xiu Yan Huan sa taong ito, pero dahil sa dami ng kwento, naalala niya ng kaunti.
“Talaga! Hindi mo alam kung gaano siya kagwapo.” Sabi ni An Ran na tila kinikilig, may mga maliliit na puso sa kanyang mga mata.
“Talaga? Nakita mo na ba siya?” Tanong ni Xiu Yan Huan na tila hindi apektado.
“Hindi pa!” Sabi ni An Ran na may inosenteng mukha.
“...”
“Bagaman hindi ko pa siya nakikita, sabi ng iba, totoo daw na gwapo siya.” Sabi ni An Ran habang nag-iimagine.
“Paano kung hindi?” Tanong ni Xiu Yan Huan.
“Hindi pwede. Mamaya na ang lecture niya, kaya’t malalaman natin. Pero sasama ka ba sa akin?” Sabi ni An Ran habang naglalambing.
Ayaw ni Xiu Yan Huan sa paglalambing ni An Ran. Kahit mas matanda ito, mas magaling maglambing. Wala siyang magawa kundi pumayag.
“Oo na, sasama na ako.” Sabi ni Xiu Yan Huan habang minamasahe ang kanyang ulo.
Masaya si An Ran at naglulundag sa kama. Hindi alam ng iba, baka isipin nilang may sakit ito.
Sanay na si Xiu Yan Huan sa ganitong ugali ni An Ran, kaya’t hindi na siya nagulat. Tumayo siya at inayos ang mga gamit na binili niya.
Nang maayos na ang lahat, naisip niya na hindi na siya muling lalabas sa ganitong kainit na panahon. Mas mabuti pang mag-online shopping na lang siya.
Napaisip siya at tinanong si An Ran, “Anong oras ang lecture mamaya?”
“Mga alas tres ng hapon, matatapos ng alas kwatro.” Sabi ni An Ran na tila sabik.
“Okay.” Tumango si Xiu Yan Huan. Akala niya matagal ang lecture, pero isang oras lang pala. Kaya’t kaya niyang tiisin.
Inayos ni Xiu Yan Huan ang kanyang mga gamit, pati na ang mga pampaganda at pangangalaga sa balat.
Nang tingnan ni An Ran ang oras, nakita niyang ala una y medya na. Kailangan nilang pumunta ng maaga para makakuha ng magandang pwesto.
“Xiu Yan, tapos ka na ba? Ang bagal mo.” Sabi ni An Ran na tila nagmamadali.
“Pwede ba huwag mo akong tawaging Xiu Yan? Parang tunog eunuch.” Sabi ni Xiu Yan Huan habang lumalabas ng banyo.
“Mas bata ka kasi sa akin.” Sabi ni An Ran na tila may punto.
Sanay na si An Ran sa pagtawag ng Xiu Yan, kaya’t mahirap itong baguhin. Pero dahil sasama si Xiu Yan sa kanya, susubukan niyang bawasan ang pagtawag nito.
Naiinis si Xiu Yan Huan, pero wala siyang magawa. Tumayo siya at inayos ang kanyang mga gamit, at bago pa man siya makapagpahinga, hinila na siya ni An Ran.
“Sandali, pwede bang dahan-dahan lang? Para kang baliw.” Sabi ni Xiu Yan Huan na hindi pa makapag-isip ng maayos.
“Siyempre, para makakuha tayo ng magandang pwesto. Kung hindi, wala na tayong mauupuan.” Sabi ni An Ran na tila may punto.
“Sandali, hindi ko nakuha ang cellphone ko.” Sabi ni Xiu Yan Huan na gustong bumalik para kunin ang kanyang cellphone.
“Hetong sayo.” Inabot ni An Ran ang cellphone kay Xiu Yan Huan.
“...”
Hindi maintindihan ni Xiu Yan Huan kung bakit kailangan nilang magmadali. Naisip niyang maglagay ng sunblock, pero dahil hinila na siya ni An Ran, hindi na siya nakapaglagay.
Sigh! Ang hirap talaga.

“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?”

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.”

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.

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.
