The day began like any other in Sarah's quiet and uneventful life. As she sipped her morning coffee, a glance out the window revealed a sun-drenched neighborhood, with people going about their daily routines. But little did she know that her life was about to take an unexpected turn.
Just as Sarah was finishing her last sip, the doorbell rang, jolting her from her peaceful morning routine. Curiosity piqued, she made her way to the door, wondering who could be calling at such an early hour. Opening the door, she found a postal worker holding a small, ordinary-looking envelope.
"Delivery for Sarah Anderson," the postal worker said, handing the envelope to her.
Sarah thanked the worker and closed the door. As she examined the envelope, she noticed that it was made of a thick, cream-colored paper with elegant handwriting on the front. The address was written in an elaborate script, beautifully crafted yet unfamiliar.
Intrigued and slightly puzzled, Sarah tore open the envelope and pulled out a folded sheet of paper. Unfolding it delicately, she squinted to read the words written across the page:
"Dear Sarah,
If you are reading this letter, it means that I am no longer with you. I apologize for the cryptic nature of this communication, but there are forces at play that I cannot fully disclose at this moment. You must trust that everything I am about to reveal is of the utmost importance.
You come from a lineage of great strength, courage, and honor. However, that legacy has been hidden from you for far too long. It is time for you to uncover the truth about your heritage, as it holds the key to your destiny.
I understand that these words may be confusing and overwhelming, but you need to trust me. Your life, as you know it, is not what it seems. The world you think you understand is merely an illusion, and danger lurks around every corner.
You must embark on a journey to find me. Seek out the hidden clues within the old family estate, where secrets have been buried for generations. Only once you have unraveled the mysteries of the past can you find me and discover the true purpose of your existence.
Be cautious, Sarah, for there are those who would do anything to prevent you from discovering the truth. Trust your intuition and find allies who can guide you along this perilous path. Be prepared for the unexpected, as the road ahead is treacherous and fraught with danger.
Remember, Sarah, you are stronger than you realize. Your legacy is calling, and it is up to you to answer.
Yours faithfully,
A Friend"
Sarah's heart raced as she absorbed the words written on the paper. The letter was cryptic, leaving her with more questions than answers. She couldn't comprehend why someone would send her such a letter, especially one filled with such enigmatic claims.
As she pondered the words, Sarah's mind drifted to her family, her own upbringing. Her parents had always been evasive about their past, shying away from sharing anything about their heritage. Could this letter hold the key to finally understanding her own history?
Without hesitation, Sarah set aside her coffee and resolved to heed the mysterious letter's call. She would dive headfirst into the web of secrecy that had enveloped her life. Determined to uncover the hidden truths about her family, she knew she had to start with the old family estate.
Little did she know that this decision would set her on a path filled with thrilling adventures, unexpected encounters, and unimaginable dangers. The mysteries of her past were waiting to be unraveled, and Sarah was ready to face them head-on.
With renewed determination and a sense of purpose, Sarah began the daunting task of unraveling the first clue-the mystery of the old family estate. Her journey had just begun.

"Who is she?" I asked, feeling tears well up in my eyes. "He met her at the Alpha training camp," he said. "She is a perfect suitor for him. It snowed last night, indicating that his wolf is happy with his choice." My heart sank, and tears made their way down my cheeks. Alexander took my innocence last night, and now he is taking that thing in his office as his Luna. **** Emily never shifted on her 18th birthday and became the laughingstock of the pack.

"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.
