Ohh Gosh!
I groaned in pain trying to get up, l felt someone's hands trying to help me get up, he had spilled his glass of wine on my body which made me very furious
I raised an eyebrow only to see a tall handsome guy standing in front of me... I couldn't help but admire his cute brown eyes, his nicely shaped jaws, and his perfectly structured face, l smiled at him immediately forgetting that l seemed so angry a few minutes ago
"Who is this guy to take my breath away?"l pondered, l have never felt like this or admired any guy like this before but here l am checking a stranger out
His clothes looked quite expensive and I figured out he must be very rich..... I snapped out of my thoughts immediately after l heard his voice
"You should be more careful next time, "he said sternly
Even though he sounded very rude and arrogant, l didn't care because I was busy admiring him all through, his smooth velvet baritone voice was everything to me. I just smiled at him without saying a word.
One of the men behind him stretched out his hands and handed a handkerchief to me.
He left immediately as the two hefty men that looks more like bodyguards walked behind him, l kept wondering who he was and why those men are with him
l had made a reservation earlier with my best friend Arianna, we wanted a girl's time out more like a vacation... l arrived earlier before Arianna so after dropping my bags in the room, l needed a change of cloth since the dress l was wearing earlier got ruined by the handsome stranger and when l was done, l decided to go grab a drink while I wait for her, I was just wearing something casual, l had a mini bum-short on and slightly transparent top which showed my round breast
I kept on reminiscing on what happened earlier, and the thought of seeing him again went through my head, l couldn't wait to tell Ariana all about the stranger who took my breath away....l have never for once thought I will be crazy about a guy this way.l sat down and signaled the waiter to come take my order, l requested a glass of Bourbon and was waiting patiently for it.
"Hey girl "Ariana's voice echoed behind me
I turned to see Ariana smiling at me, she has been my best friend since childhood, we did everything together, she's this crazy type of person, fun to be with, and she always looks out for me...l grinned at her and she grabbed a seat and sat beside me....l signaled at the waiter to make another order for Arianna
"Another glass of Bourbon please, "l said, since we both loved Bourbon....l turned my attention back to Ariana, She was looking at me like she knew l had something to say
"Spill it already, "she said, grinning from ear to ear.
"Well l saw my prince charming today, "l said with my face beaming with smiles, l went on and on about the stranger, Arianna always listens to me, well l guess that's why we are friends.
"You have a secret crush now huh," She said still gazing at me
I nodded in confirmation, grinning like a Cheshire cat
Even though I didn't know much about the stranger but for some reason I was convinced that I will see him again....my thoughts were interrupted when the waiter arrived with the order, we sipped our drinks while we kept talking and soon it was time to go to our rooms
As we moved towards the receptionist to get our keys....l suddenly heard people laughing loudly, l turned to see the handsome stranger that l couldn't get off my mind kissing a girl passionately, l felt a sharp pain in my heart, Ariana noticed how unease l was, she grabbed my hands and we moved towards our rooms
We had separate rooms, but Ariana followed me to my room seeing l was hurt, she tried to calm me down, but l didn't know if l was mad at him or angry at myself that a stranger has so much effect on me...after some time Ariana went to her room
I couldn't sleep, that was nothing new.
I usually stay up late to watch movies or read books but this night it was different, l was lying on the bed staring at the ceiling reminiscing on what happened earlier, l wondered who that bitch he was kissing was.
"Could that be his girlfriend"l pondered
I don't care l sighed, l want him to be all mine and that's all that matters

I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you."

Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain.

"Ahh!" She was in a moaning mess. She did not want to feel anything for this man. She hated him. His hands began to move all over her body. She gasped when he pulled down the back chain of her dress. The chain stopped at her lower waist, so when he zipped it off, her upper back and waist were exposed. "D-Don't touch m-ummm!" His fingers rolled around her bare back, and she pressed her head against the pillow. His touches were giving her goosebumps all over her body. With a deep angry voice, he whispered in her ear, "I am going to make you forget his touches, kisses, and everything. Every time you touch another man, you will only think of me." - - - Ava Adler was a nerdy omega. People bullied her because they thought she was ugly and unattractive.

"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.
