Sarah sat alone at a small corner table in the bustling café, her fingers nervously tracing the rim of her coffee cup. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the gentle hum of conversation enveloped the air, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Lost in her thoughts, she absentmindedly observed the people around her, their faces flickering like passing strangers in a dream.
As if guided by an invisible force, John entered the café, his gaze scanning the room until his eyes met Sarah's. There was an instant connection-a spark that seemed to bridge the gap between their worlds. A shy smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he approached her table, his heart pounding with anticipation.
"Is this seat taken?" John asked, gesturing to the empty chair across from Sarah.
Sarah's cheeks flushed as she shook her head, her own smile mirroring his. "No, please, have a seat."
The minutes turned into hours as they delved into deep conversations and shared anecdotes about their lives. Sarah discovered that John was an aspiring artist, his eyes lighting up as he described his latest painting. He spoke of the passion that fueled his creativity and the dreams he nurtured in the depths of his heart.
In turn, Sarah shared her own aspirations. She talked about her love for writing, her dreams of becoming a published author, and the stories that danced through her imagination. The more they spoke, the more they realized how intertwined their dreams and passions were, as if they were two pieces of the same puzzle.
Laughter echoed between them, filling the café with a joyful melody. Sarah found herself captivated by John's wit and charm, the way his eyes sparkled when he spoke, and the genuine interest he showed in her every word. It felt as if they had known each other for years, as if their meeting was not a mere coincidence but a serendipitous event carefully orchestrated by the universe.
As the day wore on and the sun began to set, they both reluctantly realized it was time to part ways. Sarah and John exchanged contact information, promising to meet again soon. Their smiles lingered, a bittersweet reminder of the connection they had forged in the span of a single afternoon.
Walking home that evening, Sarah couldn't help but replay their conversations in her mind, relishing the warmth that had enveloped her heart. She had experienced a profound connection-one that felt rare and precious. It was a smile that had brought them together, and now love began to bloom in its wake.
Life was perfect until she met her boyfriend's big brother. There was a forbidden law in the Night Shade Pack that if the head Alpha rejected his mate, he would be stripped of his position. Sophia's life would get connected with the law. She was an Omega who was dating the head Alpha's younger brother. Bryan Morrison, the head Alpha, was not only a cold-blooded man but also a charming business tycoon. His name was enough to cause other packs to tremble. He was known as a ruthless man. What if, by some twist of destiny, Sophia's path were to intertwine with his?
"Miss Brown, I am the butler here at your service," the butler replied. "My master wants to buy the baby in your belly." "What?!" Does that mean the abortion didn't take place? Did they kidnap her from the operating table just to buy the baby? But why her? "You..." Alice was about to ask a question, but the man in front of her calmly continued, as if he had expected her question, "You're pregnant with his child, and he needs a child. That's all I can tell you." Alice was forced to sign a surrogacy contract and eight months later gave birth to two healthy babies. Fortunately, the man was unaware of her daughter's existence. It wasn't until five years later that fate brought them together again...
"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned. There'd be bloodshed if he touched her, but the sight of blood always did fascinate him. * When Susanna flees from her husband, she stumbles right into the arms of her devilishly handsome neighbour with a brooding glare. He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
