JÓIA RARA

Na cidade de Verenthia, onde a hierarquia entre ômegas e alfas era marcada por uma brutalidade implacável, Angelo navegava pelas águas turvas da desilusão. Baixinho e gordinho, o ômega vivia sob o olhar severo da sociedade que o considerava inferior. Seus dias eram preenchidos por sussurros maldosos e olhares de desprezo, e as noites caíam como um manto pesado sobre seus ombros cansados. Contudo, a vida de Angelo estava prestes a mudar de maneira inesperada. Uma noite, enquanto caminhava pela rua, ainda repleto de tristeza, ele foi interrompido por um grupo de homens imponentes. Eram os três alfas mais temidos de Verenthia, conhecidos não apenas por sua força, mas também por sua influência na máfia local. Alessandro "Ale" Rizzo, com seu olhar azul penetrante e presença dominante, era o líder, atrás dele, Leonardo "Leo" Bianchi, deslumbrante e sedutor, e Gabriel "Gabe" Russo, o enigmático reservado com olhos castanhos profundos. "Você é diferente," Ale disse, estudando Angelo com uma intensidade que fez seu coração acelerar. "Diferente de todos aqueles que nos rodeiam." Angelo hesitou. Como alguém como ele poderia ser considerado especial? Contudo, os alfas viam algo nele que ele mesmo não conseguia enxergar. Eles o recrutaram para a equipe, prometendo protegê-lo e dar-lhe uma nova vida longe do desprezo que sempre enfrentou. Nos dias que se seguiram, Angelo passou a conviver com Ale, Leo e Gabe. Cada um deles trouxe um novo ensinamento. Ale, com sua determinação feroz, ensinou Angelo a defender-se e a se valorizar. Leo, com seu carisma contagiante, mostrou-lhe a beleza da vida e a alegria de se permitir amar. E Gabe, em sua quietude, ofereceu um espaço seguro onde Angelo podia explorar suas emoções sem medo de julgamentos. Porém, à medida que os laços entre eles se aprofundavam, o passado de Angelo voltou a assombrá-lo. Ele lutava contra os traumas de sua infância, e apesar da proteção dos alfas, a insegurança continuava a atormentar sua mente. Em uma noite de tempestade, sob a luz suave da lua, Angelo decidiu compartilhar suas feridas com os alfas. "Eu só quero ser amado, mas sinto que nunca serei o suficiente", ele confessou, lágrimas escorrendo pelo rosto. A resposta veio rápida e firme. Ale segurou sua mão, olhando fundo em seus olhos. "Você é mais do que suficiente, Angelo. Você é uma joia rara, e nós vamos ajudá-lo a ver isso." Leo se aproximou, envolvendo Angelo em um abraço caloroso. "Você merece todo o amor do mundo, e estaremos aqui, sempre." Gabe, geralmente tão reservado, falou suavemente: "Você é meu norte, e eu nunca vou deixá-lo sozinho." Essas palavras, carregadas de sinceridade e amor, começaram a quebrar as barreiras que Angelo havia construído ao longo dos anos. Gradualmente, ele começou a se abrir, a se aceitar, e a entender que seu valor não estava atrelado à sua aparência ou à opinião dos outros. Por meio de desafios e superações, a relação deles floresceu em uma dança complicada de amor e amizade. Juntos, enfrentaram inimigos da máfia e preconceitos da sociedade, defendendo aquilo que realmente importava: o amor verdadeiro. À medida que os ventos da mudança sopravam sobre Verenthia, Angelo aprendeu a ver a si mesmo com os mesmos olhos dos alfas. Ele começou a se vestir como se merecesse estar entre os poderosos, a erguer a cabeça e a se afirmar como um ômega digno de amor. No final, em uma noite iluminada pelas estrelas, Angelo, agora confiante e radiante, ficou em pé entre os três alfas. Com um sorriso genuíno, ele gentilmente declarou: "Eu sou uma joia rara, e não preciso mais da aprovação de ninguém para brilhar." Os três alfas, em união, levantaram seus copos em um brinde ao amor que os uniu. A vida de Angelo havia mudado, e agora ele não apenas aceitava seu lugar entre os poderosos, mas o fazia com a certeza de que o verdadeiro poder está, afinal, no amor e na aceitação. E assim, em um mundo que muitas vezes parecia sombrio, nasceu um novo amanhecer

The Seventh Daughter of Jezebel

Shantel Hale has spent her life trying to live above the dark shadows her mother’s reputation cast over her. She has seen powerful men fall at Jessica Hale’s feet— the infamous seductress popularly termed the modern day ‘Jezebel’ only to be left ruined afterwards. But unlike her sisters, who embraced their mother’s legacy to build fortunes and secure influential husbands, Shantel, the seventh and youngest daughter of Jessica Hale, had carved her own path in secret, gathering several awesome identities for herself. One of them was the elusive Elsa—an influential force in the corporate world, sought after by the most powerful executives. Invincible CEOs vie for her counsel, but she has consistently refused to step into the limelight while offering her services. Meanwhile, in a desperate bid to salvage his company that was crumbling after a scandal, Richard Domango turns to Elsa, convinced that she is the only one who can save him. Seeing that Richard had played right into her hands, Shantel will stop at nothing to demand for her pound of flesh from Richard for humiliating her in the past. But neither is ready for the sparks that begins to fly between them, especially Richard after finding out that his saviour, whom he fell helplessly for at first sight, is none other than Shantel Hale— ‘the seventh daughter of Jezebel’ and the very woman he’d felt nothing but blatant disdain for all his life. Will they allow their past to chart a vengeful path for them, or give in to the all consuming attraction growing between them in leaps and bounds by the day?
