Introduction

Lui è il mio fratellastro.
E abbiamo fatto sesso ieri sera, ovviamente prima di sapere chi fossimo l'uno per l'altra.
Ora, non so se dovremmo mantenere segreto ciò che è successo tra noi, nascondendo i nostri sentimenti o...?

"N-non possiamo, Boston."
La sua lingua cerca di entrare mentre le sue mani si spostano dalla mia vita alla parte bassa della schiena, tirando il mio corpo più vicino al suo.
"Cosa stai facendo?" chiedo.
Invece di rispondere, mette la bocca su di me, la sua lingua abile lecca su e giù lungo la mia cucitura.
"Oh, Dio," gemo, mentre mi porta sempre più in alto. "Non fermarti. Sono così vicina."
*************************
La madre di Aspen si è risposata.
Dopo essersi trasferita e essere stata catapultata in una nuova vita, una nuova famiglia, i suoi quattro nuovi fratelli non si preoccupano nemmeno di riconoscere la sua esistenza - almeno non in pubblico. Soprattutto dopo che Aspen si è accidentalmente messa con quello che poi scopre essere il suo nuovo fratellastro.
Tutti i problemi di Aspen iniziano con un ragazzo dagli occhi azzurri penetranti --- Boston.

Boston ha voluto Aspen dal primo sguardo. Durante una festa, hanno passato una notte insieme, che entrambi pensavano sarebbe stata l'inizio di qualcosa di nuovo, bello ed eccitante. Ma, la mattina dopo, tutto è crollato quando ha scoperto che Aspen non era altro che la sua nuova "piccola" sorellastra. Ma nemmeno questo è stato sufficiente per farlo rinunciare a lei.

Ora, bloccati tra i loro desideri e ciò che sanno essere giusto, devono prendere una decisione difficile.
Una che potrebbe fare o rovinare più di due vite.

Aspen

Trasportando scatoloni dall'appartamento al camion dei traslochi parcheggiato fuori sul marciapiede, il sudore mi scorre lungo la schiena, rendendo la mia pelle scivolosa ma fresca quando ho la fortuna di sentire una leggera brezza che raramente si fa sentire.

"Perché ci stiamo trasferendo di nuovo?" borbotto a mia madre, odiando il fatto che stiamo venendo sradicati ancora una volta. Questa è la terza volta in altrettanti anni che dobbiamo traslocare.

"So che sei stanca di traslocare, tesoro, ma questa volta sarà diverso. Te lo prometto. Niente più traslochi dopo questo." dice mamma, cercando di rassicurarmi mentre il massiccio diamante che adorna il terzo dito della sua mano sinistra brilla alla luce del sole.

"Come si chiama questo tizio di nuovo?" chiedo dopo aver caricato un'altra scatola nel retro del camion dei traslochi, posando le mani sui fianchi e fissando mia madre con occhi irritati, "E perché non l'ho mai incontrato?"

"Non stiamo insieme da molto, tesoro. Ma è lui, piccola. Quando lo sai, lo sai." dice con una scrollata di spalle, i suoi occhi brillano di felicità mentre il suo viso si apre in un sorriso da orecchio a orecchio, "Oh, tesoro. Ti piacerà davvero! E ha figli che sono più o meno della tua età."

"Fantastico, mamma. Ma qual è la fretta? Perché non potevate frequentarvi per un po' invece di scappare e sposarvi alla prima occasione?" Sono piuttosto irritata per tutta la situazione.

Non sapevo nemmeno che fosse seriamente interessata a qualcuno e poi torna da un lungo weekend con un anello di matrimonio al dito e un nuovo cognome.

Ma che diavolo, mamma? Se avessi fatto io una cosa del genere, mi avrebbe sicuramente strozzata.

"Non mi aspetto che tu capisca ancora, tesoro. Sei ancora giovane, ma un giorno incontrerai un uomo che ti farà perdere la testa e non vorrai aspettare un altro momento per passare il resto della tua vita con lui." Sembra così felice, e sono davvero contenta che sia felice, è tutto ciò che ho sempre voluto per lei, ma è solo un tale shock.

Ho avuto dodici ore per abituarmi all'idea di avere una figura maschile nella mia vita, e non solo lui ma apparentemente anche i suoi quattro figli.

Fantastico.

"E dov'è questo tuo nuovo marito e i suoi quattro figli per aiutarci a trasportare le nostre cose a casa sua?" chiedo, non ancora pronta a rinunciare alla mia irritazione a favore della felicità di mamma.

"Tesoro, non fare così. Ti prometto che ti piacerà," sospira e mi afferra il polso, tirandomi verso i gradini di cemento che portano alla nostra porta d'ingresso.

"Andiamo, piccola. Penso che siano rimaste solo poche scatole." dice mamma con una stretta alla mia coscia e un sorriso incoraggiante.

"E poi, scaricare e disfare tutto. Dove sono di nuovo?" chiedo, ancora infastidita, anche se voglio che mamma sia felice.

"Collin non ha potuto prendere un giorno di ferie per aiutare e i suoi figli sono a scuola."

"Tipico," grugnisco.

E così inizia, penso, alzando gli occhi al cielo mentre mi dirigo di nuovo nell'appartamento per prendere le ultime delle nostre cose, mamma che mi segue appena dietro.

"Devi essere così negativa riguardo a questo?" chiede mamma mentre si china per prendere l'ultima scatola. Mi alzo tenendo la mia e do un'ultima occhiata allo spazio che abbiamo chiamato casa per poco più di un anno.

"Non vedo davvero il lato positivo al momento, mamma," mormoro camminando di nuovo verso il camion dei traslochi, scavalcando il rimorchio attaccato al gancio che trasporta la nostra macchina.

"Dove ci stiamo trasferendo, comunque?" chiedo mentre guardo le case degli amici che ho fatto passare mentre ci dirigiamo verso l'autostrada 105.

Mamma mi lancia un'occhiata, il suo sorriso scivola via dal viso mentre la sua presa sul volante si stringe fino a far diventare le nocche completamente bianche, "non arrabbiarti," dice, facendomi irrigidire per le parole che stanno per uscire dalle sue labbra, "ci trasferiamo a Hawthorne..." dice rapidamente, concentrandosi sulla strada invece che sul mio sguardo scioccato.

"COSA?" strillo. Sicuramente ho capito male perché non c'è modo che ci stiamo trasferendo a due ore di distanza a Hawthorne.

"So che ti sei affezionata a Monument, ma ti piacerà anche Hawthorne, tesoro." Scuoto la testa e mi giro verso la porta, affondando nel mio sedile, il terrore che mi riempie mentre le case si diradano, diventando sempre più rare.

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Portando l'ultima scatola su per le scale, le mie braccia sono doloranti e le mie gambe mi urlano contro, avendo fatto più esercizio oggi di quanto ne abbia fatto da troppo tempo. "Avrò bisogno di una doccia dopo questo. Puzzo così tanto che anche il mio puzzo puzza," dico, rabbrividendo mentre sento il mio odore.

"Vai pure. Potresti dover cercare un po' per trovare il bagno però. Collin non ha detto dove si trova." Non dandole la possibilità di cambiare idea e darmi un altro compito da fare, corro su per le scale, posando l'ultima scatola sulla scrivania e iniziando ad aprire porte, cercando di distinguere il bagno dal ripostiglio.

Una volta trovato, accendo l'acqua al massimo del calore e mi spoglio rapidamente prima di entrare sotto il getto, gemendo al sentire l'acqua battere contro i miei muscoli doloranti.

Dopo essere uscita dalla doccia, con l'asciugamano avvolto intorno a me e legato al petto, apro la porta che conduce all'altra stanza, lasciando che la mia curiosità prenda il sopravvento.

Il profumo di colonia mi accoglie mentre entro nella stanza. È relativamente ordinata per un ragazzo: il letto sembra essere stato rifatto in fretta e ci sono vestiti sporchi nel cesto della biancheria, ma per il resto è pulita.

Poster sportivi adornano le pareti, trofei sono posizionati su una libreria insieme a un pallone da calcio e un casco firmati. Prendo il pallone, le mie dita scorrono sulla pelle mentre osservo la stanza, cercando di capire chi sia il mio nuovo fratello.

Rimetto il pallone al suo posto e mi avvicino al comodino, dove c'è una cornice che ha catturato la mia attenzione. Prendendo la cornice, mi siedo sul bordo del letto, osservando l'immagine della ragazza che mi sorride attraverso la foto. È stupenda, i suoi occhi scuri brillano, la sua bocca piena è arricciata in un ampio sorriso, mostrando una serie di denti bianchi e dritti. La sua pelle chiara e senza imperfezioni è in netto contrasto con i suoi capelli e occhi scuri, facendo risaltare i suoi tratti scuri contro la sua pallidezza.

Un rumore al piano di sotto cattura la mia attenzione, e rimettendo la cornice sul comodino, corro di nuovo verso il bagno. Fermandomi appena arrivo alla porta, mi giro e prendo un'ultima profonda inalazione del profumo inebriante prima di chiudere la porta dietro di me.

Completamente pronta mezz'ora dopo, corro giù per le scale e seguo il suono delle voci provenienti da qualche parte più avanti nella casa. Entro in una cucina che sono sicura mia madre adorerà per cucinare, e il suono di un uomo, che suppongo sia Collin, sta parlando con mia madre. "Torneranno più tardi. Hanno partite e altre attività extrascolastiche in corso in questo momento," le dice, poi si china per darle un bacio sulle labbra.

"Bambini nella stanza!" strillo e mi copro gli occhi, non volendo vedere i miei genitori che si baciano davanti a me.

“I thought we discussed this earlier, Weakness? I warned you. His death is on your hands.”
“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.
