Rival Of Aether

Escapé de mi ex, fui capturada por su rival

``` —Durante los últimos tres años, Ariana Ari Harlow ha dado todo de sí a su marido —. Los dos se casaron porque su hermana decidió huir en la noche de la boda, ya que creyó los rumores de que la Corporación Nelson estaba en bancarrota. —Ari amaba a Noah desde que tenía dieciséis años —, pensó que era el sueño de su vida hecho realidad. Sin embargo, no sabía que su hermana le había tendido una trampa y no era el comienzo de su nueva vida, sino su nuevo infierno. —Se vio obligada a renunciar a su formación como médico porque la respetable Señora Nelson no podía tener las manos cubiertas de sangre —. Ari aceptó. —Por el bien de Noah, se convirtió en la esposa perfecta que cuidaba de sus suegros y su marido —. No obstante, lo único que le esperaba eran insultos, su marido se avergonzaba de ella y su suegra creía que su hermana, Ariel, era la más adecuada para su hijo. —Con todo, Ari persistió —. Pensó que algún día llegaría a ablandar el corazón de su marido. —¡Pero lo pilló besando a su hermana! —.Con el corazón roto, Ariana decidió divorciarse de su marido, pero de alguna manera se encontró enredada con Nicolai —. El enemigo y rival de su marido. —No estaban destinados a estar juntos —. Pero a Nicolai no parece importarle las probabilidades en su contra. —De hecho, estaba decidido a irrumpir en la vida de Ari y prenderle fuego a todo —.En un estado de embriaguez, una vez la sujetó del cuello contra la pared de un bar sórdido : — "Puedes negarlo todo lo que quieras princesa, pero me deseas—. Sus ojos recorrieron su pecho agitado y sus ojos se oscurecieron, el rojo apareció desquiciado, posesivo como si quisiera arrancarle el alma del cuerpo y anclarla al suyo : — "Apuesto a que si echo un vistazo, estarás chorreando húmeda por mí. —El calor subió a las mejillas de Ariana mientras ella gruñía : — "Cállate. —Hazlo tú—, dijo Nicolai mientras estampaba sus labios sobre los de ella . —Sus besos se quemaban en su alma, y su calor le quemaba la piel cada vez que se tocaban —.Pensó que su mayor error había sido enredarse con Nicolai. —Con todo, Ari pronto se dio cuenta, literalmente, que ser deseada por semejante hermosa pesadilla era mucho peor que un error . ``` Y las cosas se complican cuando su marido descubre la verdad sobre todo. —Dispárame en el corazón, Ari —dijo Noah mientras colocaba la boquilla del arma donde latía su corazón—. Porque una vida sin ti es una vida que no quiero, así que mátame o vuelve. Te lo suplico. Ahora que Nicolai le había dado una opción, ¿se enamoraría Ari de él y se lanzaría a una vida de nada más que peligro? ¿O volvería con su marido, Noah, a quien ha amado desde que tenía dieciséis años? ¿Y evitaría Ariana el peligro que acecha en la oscuridad, esperando a que ella cometa un error y pierda todo lo que le es querido? ¿Encontraría la clave de todos los secretos que la atan a Noah y Nicolai así como a su retorcido destino? ******* —Se trata de dinero, ¿verdad? Toma y lárgate —gritó mientras lanzaba la tarjeta negra a la cara de Ariana. Ariana no podía creer lo que oía cuando su marido o su futuro exmarido la humillaba de esta manera. Tres años. Ariana Harlow le dio a Noah Nelson tres años y sin embargo cuando lo sorprendió besando a su hermana mayor, Ariel—— esto fue lo que él le dijo. —Voy a divorciarme de ti —declaró Ari y se fue. Se fue sin un centavo, pero Ari se topó con Nicolai. El enemigo y rival de su marido, el príncipe de la mafia de la Ciudad Lonest, un bastardo notorio conocido por sus tendencias violentas. El desafortunado encuentro la colocó en el camino de Nicolai y, así como así, posó sus ojos en ella. La primera vez que se encontraron, Nicolai le pidió que lo invitara a cenar. La segunda vez que se encontraron, le entregó un millón de dólares. La tercera vez que se encontraron, declaró —Te ves bien en mis brazos, ¿qué dices princesa? ********

Song of the Gardener of Souls [BL]

Rowan sees beauty in death. The Order he has sworn to obey only sees defilement. As the reviled Caretaker of the Order, Rowan has accepted his role as a dutiful outcast because he believes it is the only way to prove his worth to the man who holds his sisters’ souls as collateral. With his magic and his voice, Rowan can absorb death and transform it, but only in ways the Order deems acceptable to maintain the stability of the reality it claims to protect Order must subdue Disorder. Reality must triumph over illusion. He is tainted and always will be. Rowan has never questioned those lessons, but that changes the night he harvests a crimson soul that is more than human and chooses to keep it a secret. When Rowan’s song transforms that soul into a beautiful and mysterious man he names Wren, he is forced to accept that sometimes duty is a lie and illusion is the only thing you can trust. As the fabric of the Order begins to unwind and a new kind of Disorder takes hold, Rowan will need to choose again, stand with the Order that held him down, or forge a new path with Wren at his side. He may be the only one who can restore balance to the worlds, but only if he can find balance within himself first. ************************************* Updates 3-4 times per week. Note: This story focuses on relationships. I promise an epic romance, lots of swoon-worthy moments, and a healthy amount of fluff. When it does get steamy…you might get burned. Fair warning for explicit content. I don’t shy away from my spice. There are lots of side characters and couples to fall in love with, in addition to the main couple. If you love the idea of found family, you will be happy. This book is set in a non-heteronormative world, so you will see various gender identities/expressions and types of love. ************************************* Excerpt (if you want the full steamy version, you will have to read the book!): Still reeling from the new magic that coursed under his skin and unsure of how to react to the desire that threatened to take control of him, Rowan froze. Wren's hot breath against his mouth sent a jolt of pleasure through his body, and he choked back a groan. A different kind of panic flared in Rowan's chest, burning him as if he were the one on fire. This was what he wanted, what he'd thought about every night since Wren left. But wanting more was one thing. Acting on it was another. He'd spent so much of his life hiding, he didn't know how to do anything else. One corner of Wren's mouth twitched as Rowan pulled away. When he attempted to free himself from Wren's grasp, Wren just hauled him closer. Rowan liked that he didn't have to think about what to do next. His bare chest thudded against Wren's torso, and the heat from Wren's body merged with Rowan's skin, melting him from the inside out. "What did you just do to me?" Wren's deep voice vibrated against Rowan's chest. "The Disorder of your illusion was holding you captive. I…I absorbed it." "Oh? Where did you learn to do that? Have I been gone that long?" Wren's grip loosened slightly on Rowan's wrists as if he was satisfied now that Rowan was practically sitting on top him. Rowan stared at Wren's lips. He opened his mouth to protest, but immediately closed it again. "I know you aren't going to say that I shouldn't touch you." Wren's free hand splayed over the small of Rowan's back. "Not when you started it." Rowan's breath hitched. "No. I'm not going to say that anymore. Not to you." "I thought you were afraid to be touched." Wren's fingers traced a circle over the curve of Rowan's spine as if testing for a reaction. "I know that I'm not afraid of you." Rowan waited for the panic to set in, but all he felt was desire. "With you, I want…" "You want what?" "I want more." Triumph flared in Wren's gaze before he narrowed his eyes. "Really? Then why are you still trying to get away from me?"
