Chapter 1
Molly
"Tienes que seguir trabajando en esta empresa, Molly."
Las palabras del sr. Henry invaden mi mente, me limpio de nuevo las lágrimas que se escapan mientras observo la fotografía de él, vestido en un traje de marca y acompañado de una gran sonrisa, una sonrisa que marca muchas arrugas de su rostro, luce feliz entregándome un reconocimiento como mejor empleada del año en empresas Goldberg. Trago saliva con sentimiento y el dolor en mi pecho se instala con fuerza, dejo el portarretrato sobre mi regazo y cierro los ojos. El sollozo se escapa de mis labios sin poder evitarlo. La alarma suena distrayéndome unos momentos, abro los ojos y miro el reloj en la mesa de noche: 8:50 am, a las diez es el entierro.
Se escuchan pasos acercándose a mi habitación, es mi madre. Abre la puerta mientras da un toque con sus nudillos, su rostro muestra angustia. Me mira en silencio, entra y se sienta a mi lado.
—Necesitas un poco de color en tus mejillas, Molly. Estás pálida.
—Estoy bien, madre. —ella pasa su brazo por mis hombros y lentamente tira de mi para recargarme a su costado. Lo hago sin rechistar. Cierro los ojos y lloro por unos minutos más. Ella no dice nada, sabe que me ha dolido la partida de mi mentor, de un amigo.
—No estás bien. Puedo conducir y llevarte. —me separo de ella, me limpio las lágrimas con el dorso, busco mi bolsa y doy con ella.
—Estoy bien. Tengo que irme, después del entierro...—se me corta la voz mientras camino en busca de mi bolsa, dejo el portarretrato en la otra mesa de noche. Alcanzo mi celular y camino para la puerta, detengo mi huida. —...regresaré a la empresa. No podré venir a comer...
—Está bien, Molly. Llama cuando estés en la empresa... ¿Sí? —me vuelvo hacia mi madre quien sigue con su rostro cargado de preocupación.
—Si...—intento sonreír, pero no lo logro. Hago una mueca y salgo.
—Mi sentido pésame, Sebastian. —le extiendo la mano a Sebastian, el nieto menor del sr. Henry. Él arruga su frente y en lugar de aceptar mi mano, tira de ella y me abraza.
Comienza a convulsionar del llanto, mis manos lentamente responden el agarre. Sebastian era muy cercano al sr. Henry, aunque como vicepresidente hacía a la perfección su trabajo, como nieto... hacía enojar mucho a su abuelo, aunque cada pelea tenía una reconciliación, siempre fue una relación de estira y afloja, ahora, en la ausencia, ¿Con quién va a pelear?
El sr. Henry había fallecido de un infarto mientras dormía plácidamente en su cama, un día antes, me había dicho que se tomaría el día siguiente, que por fin iba a descansar, pero no sabía que sería eternamente. Casi cinco años trabajando para él, la empresa es una exportadora de vino, siempre decía que sus tierras en California eran los mejores, que un día tenía que llevarme para mostrarme el paraíso de la uva, qué cuando finalmente se retirara, iba a vivir en aquellos viñedos, que cabalgaría por los atardeceres como lo hizo de joven junto a su padre, luego con su único hijo...y que un futuro, sería el día de hacerlo con sus dos únicos nietos.
Nietos que había criado él solo cuando su único hijo y la esposa había fallecido en un accidente de carretera, les había educado, les había enseñado la empresa desde abajo, el único que se quedó a su lado fue Sebastian, quizás por ser el menor, pero el otro hermano, se había marchado a Inglaterra, dejando a su hermano y a su abuelo con la empresa en la ciudad de New York. Dice Sebastian que la última vez que su hermano vio a su abuelo, fue hace cinco años, que había terminado en una gran disputa, una que hizo que Henry Goldberg hiciera maleta y se fuese a otro continente.
—Gracias por acompañarnos, Molly, si no hubieses venido, hubiera ido por ti. —entrecierro mis ojos por encima del hombro de Sebastian, a través de mis lentes de sol veo un hombre de traje negro impecable, de su brazo una mujer rubia, delgada y luce un elegante traje negro, con sombrero y todo.
—Creo que ha llegado alguien...—la gente comienza a acercarse a la pareja, Sebastian se separa de mí, se vuelve hacia su espalda y entonces maldice entre dientes.
—Es Henry, mi hermano mayor y la bruja...es la prometida. —el hombre no deja de mirarnos, su quijada es tensa. —Pensé que no vendría, ¿Por qué tiene que pasar una tragedia para poner el pie en la ciudad? Mi abuelo muchas veces le rogó para que viniera, ¿Ahora que se ha muerto es cuando lo hace?
—No lo he conocido en persona, solo por llamadas a la empresa... —susurro sin bajar de mirar, entonces me tenso cuando empieza a avanzar hacia nosotros. Sebastian se pone a mi lado mientras se ajusta la corbata negra.
—Mierda, tarde o temprano tenemos que darnos el pésame, ¿No puedo simplemente dar la vuelta e irme?
Intenta hacerlo, pero mi mano atrapa su brazo, él se sorprende.
—Sebastian...es el funeral de tu abuelo. —su rostro se descompone, sus ojos azules comienzan a cristalizarse, intento hacer algo, pero llega su hermano.
—Sebastian. —el tono con el que usa el hermano mayor es frío, el ambiente se vuelve tenso en segundos. Sebastian pone el mismo gesto.
—Henry. —no mira a la prometida.
—Tenemos que hablar. —dice Henry sin dejar de mirar a Sebastian.
—Estoy ocupado como verás, después podemos hacerlo. ¿El lunes en la empresa?
Se hace un silencio más tenso.
—Mi sentido pésame, Sebastian. —le dice la mujer rubia a Sebastian, pero él no responde, es más, ni la mira.
—Sebastian. —advierte Henry.
Entonces, Sebastian gira su rostro unos centímetros hacia la rubia.
—Gracias. —dice de manera fría.
— ¿Y tú eres? —la rubia me mira detenidamente. Se baja un poco los lentes y me da un repaso descarado.
Sebastian se pone frente a mí.
— ¿Cuánto tiempo estarán? ¿Hasta que den lectura al testamento? —pregunta a toda prisa Sebastian, Henry se tensa más.
—Sí, nomás a la lectura y nos marchamos. —Sebastian asiente, pone una mano en el brazo de Henry y murmuran algo.
Se retiran, pero lo más escalofriante es ver como Henry no deja de mirarme. Su quijada es dura y las marcas de cómo aprieta su mandíbula es fácil de ver.
Sebastian se gira hacia mí, que sigo en mi lugar.
—Disculpa por lo de hace unos momentos, Alexandra Dorian es una...—asiento cuando no termina sus palabras.
—No te preocupes. Tengo que ir a la empresa...
Sebastian se aprieta el puente de la nariz. Luego levanta su mirada y me observa detenidamente.
—Tienes que descansar, deja la empresa por hoy.
—Hay mucho trabajo, Sebastian, además yo...—pone sus dedos en mis labios, eso me hace callar.
—Date un respiro, estamos pasando por algo fuerte, más tú...—trago saliva, retira sus dedos.
—Lo sé...—él sonríe a medias.
—Casi cinco años haciendo impecablemente tu trabajo con pasión, eres un humano no un robot...—sonrío a medias.
—Eso decía tu abuelo...—él sonríe.
—Lo sé. Anda, ve a descansar, haré que me desvíen las llamadas a mi celular para que descanses. El lunes te espero como siempre a primera hora. ¿Sí? —asiento lentamente dudando.
—Gracias. —tira de mi brazo para abrazarme, al soltarme él sigue su camino hasta la gente y recibiendo abrazos.
Camino hacia mi auto.
— ¿Molly? —escucho una voz ronca y fría a mi espalda, me giro.
— ¿Sí? —es Henry, viene hacia mí ajustando el botón de su americana, viene solo. Se retira sus lentes oscuros y yo hago lo mismo. — ¿Qué pasa, señor Goldberg? —pregunto cuando se detiene frente a mí, tiene que bajar un poco la mirada hacia mí, su frente se arruga.
—Así que tú eras la asistente personal y mano derecha de mi abuelo...—dice entre dientes, lo dice en confirmación.
—Sí, soy yo. —levanto mi barbilla.
No dice nada, simplemente me da un repaso discreto.
—El lunes quiero que me facilites toda la información de la empresa, quiero todo a primera hora en el escritorio. Lo último que te ha dejado mi abuelo.
—Sí, señor. —me tenso cuando ya no dice nada más, ahí está frente a mí, observándome en silencio. — ¿Necesita algo más?
— ¿Tú y Sebastian...? —abro mis ojos como platos.
— ¡No, no, no! Es el vicepresidente, yo solo hago mi trabajo como asistente, hago mi trabajo y…—detengo mi justificación. — ¿Por qué lo pregunta? —eso sale sin filtro.
Él se tensa más.
—Te veo el lunes a primera hora. —se gira y desaparece entre los autos.
Estoy atónita. Ahora el nieto mayor del sr. Henry...tenía un rostro, realmente existe el hombre, intento controlar mis pensamientos, fantaseaba con esa voz tan masculina cuando llamaba todos los días a las ocho de la mañana, "Molly, pásame a mi abuelo" "Molly, dile a mi abuelo que la videoconferencia es a las doce" "Molly, dile a Sebastian que conteste el maldito teléfono" "Molly... ¿Qué hace aún en la oficina?"
Finalmente entro al auto y me marcho a casa pensando en la promesa que me hizo hacerle antes de fallecer...
"No abandonar Empresas Goldberg por nada del mundo."
¿Por qué?

“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.
Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother
"What is wrong with me?
Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?
It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.
He’s my boyfirend’s brother.
This is Tyler’s family.
I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.
**
As a ballet dancer, My life looks perfect—scholarship, starring role, sweet boyfriend Tyler. Until Tyler shows his true colors and his older brother, Asher, comes home.

I'm falling for my boyfriend's brother.
**
I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
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.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
The War God Alpha's Arranged Bride
Yet Alexander made his decision clear to the world: “Evelyn is the only woman I will ever marry.”

To make matters infinitely worse, the furious (and frustratingly handsome) “accidental hostage” is Enzo Marchesi, Vegas’s most notorious mafia Don.
For Enzo, this is the ultimate security breach. But the fiery, unpredictable tattoo artist is the most intriguing thing to happen to him in years. To stop his crew from “neutralizing” the threat, he makes an impulsive claim: she’s his fiancée.
Thrust into a world of high-stakes lies and feral attraction, they must navigate rival families and their own explosive chemistry.
One wrong move sparked it. Now neither of them wants out.
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."

Will Booker be able to find the source of the threat before it's too late?
Will Dani finally give her heart to a man who's everything she's been warned about?

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.

Crossing Lines
Noah
I was here to prove myself—
One last shot at football, at freedom, at a future no one ever thought I’d deserve.
And then I met him.
Coach Aiden Mercer.
Cold. Demanding. Built like a legend and twice as ruthless.
From the first command, I wanted to fight him.
From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.
But this wasn’t just about the game anymore.
He looked at me like he saw through every mask I wore…

The same one that called me baby boy in the darkest corners of the internet.
Now I didn’t know if I wanted to win…
Or just be his.

I knew it was him.
He didn’t know who I was. Not yet.
But I was already testing him. Pushing him.
Breaking him down until he begged for what he swore he didn’t need.
This was not supposed to get personal, but every second he disobeyed made me want to claim him harder.
And if he crossed the line…
I’d make damn sure he never forgot who he belonged to.
