Introduction

Ele riu da tentativa desesperada dela de tornar a mentira convincente. "Pequena mentirosa, seu rosto te trai muito, infelizmente," ele colocou a mão em suas bochechas, seu rosto sombrio, "você não pode fugir de mim, Maya; não importa o quanto você tente, eu sempre vou te encontrar. Mesmo na parte mais profunda do inferno. E quando eu te encontrar, você será punida de acordo com o tempo que ficou longe de mim, entendeu?"

O tom dele era tão suave e gentil que poderia enganar qualquer um, menos ela. Ela conseguia ver através dele, e tremia sob seu toque.

"S-sim, maestro."

****

Embora sua irmã tenha cometido o crime, Maya Alfredo é entregue por seus pais para ser punida pelo Impiedoso Don Damon Xavier por vender informações sobre a Costa Nostra para a polícia.

Seu mundo é virado de cabeça para baixo e destruído; ela é levada para a Mansão do Don, onde é possuída por ele e tratada como seu brinquedo, enquanto sabe de suas intenções de destruí-la.

Mas então as coisas ficam sombrias na Mansão do Don, com a presença de Derinem Xavier. Maya não tem chance na fornalha de Damon. Ele vai destruí-la e tudo o que ela ama pelos pecados que ele acha que ela cometeu? Ou a sorte tem outros planos para ela?

Nota— Este é um romance sombrio. Não é todo amorzinho. O protagonista masculino é um psicopata. Avisos de gatilho!!!

Chapter 1

"Damon, por favor, eu imploro, me deixe ir," ela chorou. Ele a puxou com a gravata, que usava para amarrar suas mãos.

Ela sabia que lutar era inútil quando ele a olhou de maneira assustadora, e como se ele fosse um vodu, ela estremeceu. Tentou ler seus olhos, mas, como sua consciência, eles estavam vazios.

Para sua surpresa, ele a soltou e caminhou até a mesa de cabeceira no quarto. Ainda assim, seu medo aumentou enquanto se perguntava para onde ele foi e o que faria com ela.

Mas quando ele voltou, estava segurando uma tesoura.

"Eu adoro quando você implora," ele murmurou, cortando seu vestido branco, rasgando-o em pedaços até que ela estivesse completamente nua diante dele, pois não usava roupas íntimas. "Implore, Maya. Implore!"

Maya engoliu em seco.

"Ah, você está sendo desobediente, não é?" Ele inseriu a língua em seu ouvido e sussurrou, "Eu gosto disso também." Ele enterrou os dedos em seu traseiro. "Porque agora, eu tenho todos os motivos para fazer o que sempre quis fazer com você. Maya..."

Alguns Meses Antes

Maya entrou no quarto, exausta do trabalho. Trabalhar como jornalista foi bastante agitado naquele dia. Foi um milagre uma bala perdida não tê-la atingido devido ao confronto entre criminosos e a polícia.

Ouvindo passos atrás dela, Maya se virou para encontrá-la entrando casualmente. Ana, um palmo mais alta que ela, era uma beleza de se admirar. Carregando todos os traços físicos de sua mãe, o desprezo em seus belos lábios mostrava seu desdém pela irmã mais velha.

Pelo menos com um desprezo tão evidente, não havia necessidade de se perguntar se era tudo coisa da sua cabeça. Ela não era apenas desprezada pela irmã, mas por toda a família. Seus pais eram imensamente ricos, mas ela sempre foi tratada como lixo por razões desconhecidas.

Então não foi surpresa quando ela conseguiu sua primeira liberdade na forma de seu emprego. Alfredo, como patriarca, embora odiasse a visão da filha, fez uma regra de nunca deixá-la sair, o que ela nunca entendeu quanto mais pensava sobre isso.

"Maya, papai está te chamando."

Ela sentiu um arrepio percorrer sua pele. A última vez que verificou, seu pai se esquivava ao vê-la. "Por quê?" Maya perguntou, em alerta.

"Bem, ele não me disse, mas quer conversar durante o jantar."

Maya olhou para a irmã, e vendo o sorriso presunçoso no rosto de Ana, suspeitou que ela estava mentindo sobre não saber de nada. E o fato de ter sido chamada para jantar com a família era ainda mais estranho.

"Estarei lá em um minuto," ela disse finalmente.

"Seja rápida," Ana disse enquanto se afastava. "Haverá um visitante em breve, e papai quer terminar a conversa antes que ele chegue." Quando estava na saída, acrescentou zombeteiramente, "Não se esqueça de tomar banho também, Maya. Você está fedendo."

Enquanto via sua irmã sair, Maya ficou com medo. A última vez que seu pai a chamou foi há dois anos, quando ela deu um tapa em Ana por causa de um incidente específico e vergonhoso. Sua punição não era uma experiência que gostava de lembrar.

Mas como era durante o jantar, talvez não fosse tão ruim. Sendo a segunda filha e criança de Alfredo Petra, ela estava constantemente na defensiva.

Ela entrou no banheiro e tomou um banho rápido. Vestiu um vestido leve, e como não usava sutiã, seus mamilos estavam bem visíveis contra o tecido.

Maya caminhou até a sala de jantar, onde sua família já estava sentada ao redor da mesa. Ela ficou ao lado de um assento vazio, esperando que ele gritasse com ela. Se perguntava o que tinha feito desta vez. Pelo que sabia, estava conseguindo evitá-lo e se manter longe do seu caminho. Ela supôs que isso não era suficiente.

"Sente-se, Maya; vamos jantar," disse seu pai suavemente.

Ela olhou para ele bruscamente. Ele usou aquele tom suave com ela? Ela não podia acreditar. Estava sonhando?

Ainda de pé e se perguntando se tinha ouvido bem, sua mãe repetiu, "Sente-se, criança. Sua comida pode esfriar."

Seus ossos enrijeceram. Mas ela se sentou, e sua comida foi servida por uma empregada. O assento à sua frente estava vazio. Seu pai estava na cabeceira da mesa, enquanto Ana, que estava de frente para a mãe e ainda a observava de cima a baixo, estava perto do pai, segurando sua mão.

Maya notou que o homem mais velho parecia frágil e doente. Ele também parecia preocupado.

Quando começaram a comer, Maya os observava, sem saber o que fazer. Ela não se sentia confortável com sua própria família, e isso era evidente.

"Por que você não come sua comida, Maya?" Sua mãe perguntou.

"Talvez ela ache que envenenamos," Ana disse maldosamente.

"Não, não," ela disse rapidamente, "Eu não acho que foi envenenada. Nunca pensaria isso, mãe..."

"Então coma sua comida."

Ela rapidamente começou a enfiar a comida na boca, sem sentir o gosto de nada.

Seu pai pigarreou. "Eu sei que você está se perguntando por que a chamei," ele pausou, e após segundos de silêncio, continuou, "Quero saber se você pode fazer um sacrifício pela sua família."

A confusão aumentou. "Eu não entendo, pai."

Ela notou o calor subindo ao rosto dele, e rapidamente acrescentou para que ele não a machucasse como sempre fazia, "Sim, eu posso, pai. Posso fazer um sacrifício pela minha família."

"Não importa o quão grande?" Ele insistiu.

Maya não estava confortável com o rumo daquela conversa, mas ainda assim, respondeu, "Não importa o quão grande, pai."

Ele assentiu, então, de uma pasta ao seu lado, tirou um pedaço de papel e lhe entregou uma caneta. "Assine isso," ele disse ao lhe entregar o papel.

Desta vez, ela teve que perguntar, "O que é isso?"

"Isso provará seu amor pela família," ele disse. Ele desviou o olhar dela e olhou pela janela antes de começar a explicar, "Ana encontrou os relatórios sobre a Cosa Nostra em que você estava trabalhando."

Seu coração bateu forte contra o peito. O projeto sobre a Cosa Nostra era pessoal; não deveria ser visto por ninguém. O que Ana estava fazendo em seu quarto para encontrar os papéis? Maya esperava que ninguém mais tivesse descoberto.

"E ela enviou para a polícia por uma pequena recompensa."

Ela engasgou. Estava devastada. Não importava o quanto sua irmã a tratasse mal, ela não desejaria o perigo que estava por vir. Ela olhou para o pai e se perguntou: não estavam cometendo um grande erro ao mantê-la ali em vez de escondê-la em algum lugar longe de todo o perigo que certamente viria?

"Felizmente, o Don tinha um informante que conseguiu os papéis, então estão em mãos seguras. Mas o Don..." Sua respiração estava trêmula. "quer algo em troca se quisermos manter nossas vidas."

"O que é, pai?" Ela perguntou. Pelo que sabia, estava pronta para fazer qualquer coisa para ajudar sua família. Se ele quisesse que ela fosse ao público e dissesse que tudo o que escreveu naquele papel era mentira, talvez com isso, ela pudesse até ganhar o amor de seus pais. "O que eu tenho que fazer, pai?"

Ele a olhou e então finalizou, "No lugar de sua irmã, você tem que concordar com tudo o que o Don Damon disser."

O choque ficou preso em sua garganta.

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.

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.
