Chapter 1

"Korey!" Minha chefe chama.

"Sim," respondo preguiçosamente.

"Você enviou a margarida para o Sr. Adams?"

"Sim, enviei, senhora," respondo, essa era a quinta vez que ela me perguntava, e sinceramente, estava começando a me irritar.

"Bom, agora preciso que você comece com o arranjo de flores dos Ramírez," ela diz enquanto sai do armário de suprimentos.

"Claro, Mama June," aceno com um sorriso.

Mama June é uma mulher de 55 anos, esquecida e parcialmente cega. Ela me acolheu há menos de três anos. Meus pais adotivos estavam se divorciando, e eu não estava indo muito bem até que ela entrou na minha vida, bem, eu entrei na loja dela pensando que era um bar.

Desde então, ela tem cuidado de mim, ela me chama de seu afilhado do céu, me trata como um de seus netos e eu a amo da mesma forma que amo minha avó.

Sua pequena figura fraca passa por mim, ela está pálida, muito mais pálida do que o normal. Ela se apoia no balcão e coloca a mão no coração.

"Mama June," chamo por ela.

"Estou bem, meu filho, não se preocupe," ela diz e continua andando em direção à frente da loja.

Eu continuo com meu trabalho. Conforme o dia passa, continuo implorando para Mama June ir para casa, e ela finalmente vai mais cedo para descansar porque a pobre mulher trabalha demais. Odeio vê-la fazer isso, então fico sozinho para terminar alguns pedidos para o dia seguinte.

Mais tarde naquela noite, estou montando o último arranjo quando percebo que estou sem Petúnias. Suspiro, agora tenho que ir ao jardim nos fundos. Coloco minha jaqueta, calço minhas botas de jardim, pego minha cesta e tesoura, e saio pela porta dos fundos.

Caminho pelo pequeno caminho até a seção de petúnias; graças a Deus aquele lugar tinha iluminação, caso contrário, eu já teria estragado todas as flores. Não só isso, mas tenho medo do escuro, mas mais importante, tenho medo de Mama June.

Ajoelho-me em frente às Petúnias e cuidadosamente as corto e coloco na cesta. Quando estou prestes a terminar, ouço um farfalhar. Olho ao redor e não vejo nada, meu coração começa a bater rápido.

Devem ser esquilos, penso.

O farfalhar se afasta, e vejo um flash à distância. Levanto-me e caminho em direção ao flash de luz. Sei o que você está pensando, não vá em direção à luz. Bem, não consigo evitar, preciso saber o que está acontecendo. À medida que me aproximo, vejo uma porta.

Por que diabos há uma porta no chão?

Espio dentro, mas não consigo ver nada, está escuro. Pego meu celular do bolso e ligo a lanterna. Uma escada que desce mais fundo no chão.

Não desça aí, Korey! diz meu cérebro.

Dou uma risada, vou descer sim.

Desço as escadas e quanto mais desço, mais quente fica. De repente, chego a outra porta.

Garota, você vai morrer hoje à noite!

Giro a maçaneta e abro a porta. Estou em um quarto, o quarto de alguém, especificamente de um homem. O quarto inteiro parece um cenário de Game of Thrones, uma cama enorme com quatro postes e cortinas brancas, grandes janelas, uma estante de livros e crânios, pinturas medievais.

Adoro isso! Quem mora aqui tem um senso de estilo profundo.

Continuo andando pelo quarto e vejo uma foto de um homem, ele é lindo, olhos verdes penetrantes, tatuagens cobrindo o corpo, mandíbula esculpida, ele é um sonho.

Eu pularia nele a qualquer dia, penso comigo mesma.

Além disso, continuo olhando ao redor quando ouço vozes vindo do outro lado do quarto. Parece que pessoas estão fazendo sexo. Eu me encolho, isso é constrangedor.

Cama rangendo, garota gemendo, garoto grunhindo. É simplesmente estranho. Então, esse é meu sinal para sair, volto para a porta e a fecho, sentindo-me triste por algum motivo. Uma parte de mim não queria sair, queria ficar lá, sinto uma sensação de paz, por mais incomum que isso pareça, mas não é minha casa, eu preciso ir embora.

Fecho a porta e subo as escadas, saio pela porta e a fecho bem. Fico ali por um momento.

Por que diabos estou ficando emocional com isso? Me repreendo, controle-se!

Parecia um lar, no entanto.

Ah, supere isso e volte ao trabalho!

Suspiro mais uma vez e volto para minha cesta, pego mais algumas petúnias e volto para a loja. Termino de montar o último arranjo e limpo minha estação de trabalho. Além disso, fecho a loja e faço a caminhada de cinco minutos até minha casa, moro sozinha em um pequeno apartamento, na parte boa da cidade.

Duas semanas depois que Mama June me empregou, ela me deu meu primeiro cheque de pagamento e as chaves do meu próprio apartamento. Ela achou que eu precisava ficar perto da loja caso ela tivesse uma emergência e precisasse de mim lá.

Chego à minha porta e vejo uma carta no chão, é do meu pai. Destranco a porta e entro no meu apartamento, tranco a porta novamente, jogo minha bolsa no chão e vou para a cozinha. Além disso, abro a geladeira e pego um pouco de macarrão com queijo que sobrou, esquento e vou sentar no meu sofá.

Ligo a TV e percebo que são 23:39 da noite, como o tempo passou tão rápido? Termino de comer e vou direto para a cama, precisava acordar cedo de manhã para entregar o arranjo de flores dos Ramírez no local do casamento antes das 09:00.

Tomo um banho rápido e pulo na cama, e antes que eu possa adormecer, meu telefone toca, é o Papa June.

"Alô," atendo sonolenta, esfregando os olhos.

"Desculpe acordar você, querida, mas tenho notícias tristes," diz Papa June preocupado.

Sento-me na cama, "O que aconteceu?"

"É a Mama June, ela teve um ataque cardíaco."

Meu mundo inteiro desabou.

"Mas ela está bem, está sendo cuidada," Papa June responde.

Suspiro, "Quer que eu vá até aí?"

"Não, não, eu vou ficar bem, querida, Chase está aqui comigo."

"Ok, vou passar de manhã para ver vocês dois."

"Obrigado, Korey, agora descanse, nos vemos de manhã."

Ele desliga o telefone e eu fico olhando para ele. Soltando um suspiro de frustração, coloco o telefone na mesa de cabeceira e deito de novo na cama, olhando para o teto, minha mente não consegue deixar de voltar ao palácio subterrâneo.

“You think I’d share my mate? Just stand by and watch while you fuck another woman and have her kids?”
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” my mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”

From first crush to wedding vows, George Capulet and I had been inseparable. But in our seventh year of marriage, he began an affair with his secretary.

On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...

Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.

George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.

His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"

Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.

When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.

"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"

George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"

"I'm afraid that's impossible."

Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."

By adulthood, his father’s hatred and abuse towards him has spilled over into the rest of the pack making him the scapegoat for those with the sadistic need to see him suffer. The rest are simply too afraid to even look his way leaving him little in the way of friends or family to turn to.

I paused at the ajar conference room door, attempting to balance the tray of coffees. Creedon was my new boss, now also my boyfriend. I listened at the door.

“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.

“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*

“She is pretty, but she’s of no value to you, Creedon. A pebble in a sea of diamonds, darling. You can have any woman you desire. Fuck her out of your system, and sign off on her,” Latrisha spat. “That one is going to become a pain in your ass. You need a bitch that will submit.”

Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.

“I have her under control, Trisha, back the fuck off.”

**Control? Oh, hell naw! ** He hadn't met the take no bullshit southern bitch I could be.

Rage brewed as I elbowed open door.
