Do Lizards Shed Their Skin

A Noiva do Diabo

Um amor condenado desde o início, uma causa perdida, uma batalha em desvantagem - E ainda assim, nenhum dos corações deseja desistir até o final. ----- Arlan Cromwell, o epítome do perfeito Príncipe Herdeiro. Tudo o que ele quer é viver uma vida normal de um humano, mas a vida de um dragão está longe de ser normal. Ele tem apenas um objetivo - encontrar sua prometida fugitiva e decapitá-la. O que acontece quando ele descobre que a mulher que conquistou seu coração é aquela que ele jurou matar? Oriana, a herbalista, se disfarçando de homem, passou a vida inteira fugindo sem saber do que está fugindo. Quando os mistérios de seu passado lentamente começam a alcançá-la, ela não tem a quem recorrer... exceto Arlan. Mas quando ela descobre que o homem a quem entregou seu coração é o mesmo que quer matá-la, como ela pode aceitar as crueldades que a vida lhe impôs? Duas pessoas com segredos para manter, identidades para esconder e respostas para encontrar. Quando a certa escuridão ameaça levar Oriana embora, o Dragão será capaz de proteger sua companheira? ----- Excerto- “Se eu soubesse que você era minha prometida, teria te matado no exato momento em que nos encontramos.” “Se eu soubesse que estava prometida a você, teria me matado antes mesmo que você me matasse!” Ele tirou uma adaga e a ofereceu a ela. “Não é tarde demais. Apenas corte sua garganta com isso e você sangrará sem dor.” Ela aceitou a faca, seus dedos segurando firmemente o cabo. No momento seguinte, ele estava pressionado contra a parede e a faca estava no lado direito de seu pescoço. “Que tal eu tentar em você primeiro, meu prometido?” “Sinta-se à vontade para tentar. Mas quando você falhar, esta faca provará primeiro o sangue do seu avô, depois o seu.” A raiva subiu em seus olhos, e no momento seguinte, sangue corria pelo lado direito de seu pescoço. Ela cortou profundamente o suficiente para romper um vaso sanguíneo importante. “Você não deveria ter me desafiado,” ela zombou e recuou, esperando que ele desabasse. Ele apenas sorriu e passou o dedo ao longo da ferida profunda em seu pescoço. “Parece que você falhou.” Ela observou a ferida em seu pescoço se curando sozinha e sentiu-se chocada até os ossos. “Você.. o que você é?” “Adivinhe?” -----

"Oops... I Do!"

Lila Harper is an heiress with a plan: marry Ethan Grey, the perfectly polished billionaire, and save her family’s crumbling company. It’s not about love—it’s a strategic partnership, the kind of union her parents approve of and the tabloids eat up. But when Lila arrives at the courthouse for her low-key, no-frills wedding, fate has other plans. Enter Jackson Carter, a devilishly handsome troublemaker who’s in the wrong place at the wrong time—or maybe the right one, depending on who you ask. Thanks to a clerical mix-up and Jackson’s impulsive charm, Lila accidentally says “I do” to the wrong man. Now married to a stranger with a scandalous reputation, Lila finds her life spiraling into chaos. The tabloids are having a field day, her mother is on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and her furious ex-almost-fiancé, Ethan, is determined to win her back—or ruin her new “husband.” But Jackson? He’s loving every second of it. With his wicked sense of humor and surprising loyalty, he’s the one person who refuses to let Lila’s perfect life stay perfectly boring. As sparks fly between Lila and Jackson, their fake marriage starts to feel a little too real. But when Ethan escalates his schemes to destroy Jackson, Lila must decide: does she stick to the safe, controlled life she’s always known—or take a risk on the wild card she never saw coming? “Oops... I Do!” is a fast-paced romantic comedy filled with witty banter, unexpected twists, and the kind of chemistry that can’t be planned—even when everything else is.

Ascensão do Alfa Escuro

``` [COMPLETO - GANHADOR DO PRÊMIO SILVER $8,000USD: Competição de Lobisomens 2022] Zev avançou em direção a ela, toda uma brilhante e brutal beleza, o queixo baixo e aqueles olhos incríveis e penetrantes fixos nela. Ele não parou até que estivessem frente a frente e ele bloqueasse sua visão de qualquer outro macho no círculo. Seus olhos desceram para a boca dela enquanto ele se inclinava, seu sussurro brincando em sua pele. "Você. É. Minha." Sua voz profunda ressoou na barriga dela enquanto os uivos da matilha de lobos surgiam por trás dele, ecoando pelas montanhas de Tana, enquanto os outros Quimeras protestavam contra sua reivindicação. Segurando o impulso de acariciar o amplo peito nu dele com suas mãos trêmulas, Sasha forçou-se a inclinar a cabeça e erguer uma sobrancelha. "Tão ousado para um filhote que acabou de encontrar suas presas." Os outros machos rugiram de riso. Ignorando suas provocações, os olhos de Zev brilharam e ele se inclinou ainda mais, a barba por fazer em sua mandíbula fazendo cócegas na bochecha dela enquanto ele sorria. "Tão ousada para uma humana que já conhece o prazer de ofegar meu nome." Ela estremeceu quando os dentes dele roçaram sua orelha. ***** Apenas dias depois de Sasha se entregar ao amor de sua infância, ele desapareceu. Cinco anos depois, em uma escura rua da cidade, Zev voltou - com perigo seguindo seus passos. Zev é Quimera: Metade humano, metade lobo.

Agora, Zev deve lutar contra seu próprio povo para ganhar o direito de acasalar com seu único amor. Será que ele consegue provar a ela que sua promessa de muito tempo atrás, de proteger seu coração, bem como seu corpo, era verdadeira?
