But the pain didn't always lead to something pleasant.
Oppositely, Daniel will become one of the fearest men in the mafia.
Now they are forced to be gathered most uncommonly again, after ten years of absence.
What would happen to our protagonists?
Chapter 1
"Let us put an end to this relationship, it won't make any good to any of us" Daniel expressed with a hoarse voice he used to hide his pain.
He knew he was hurting her, that he was tearing her heart off, though it was the smartest decision he found.
He eyed her, trying to speak as composed as his nerves could allow him to, even if he was as hurt as his sibling was. He struggled with his tongue to pronounce those words with his heart broken into a thousand pieces.
Kinder was staring at him, with a glance filled with sorrow, pain, and tears running down her cheeks unable to understand why he was breaking up with her.
Has she done something wrong? Was he a liar during all this time? has he lied about his sentiment toward her?
She couldn't understand why the dude with who she always dreamed of spending her life was bleeding her, the only guy she fiercely loved.
"Whose good do you want to preserve by acting as you do?"
"You know how much I care about you, you know how I will feel after your departure, I don't want you to leave me" she was pleading, she expressed, wiping with her hand the tears which were running down her cheeks.
She wiped them away, unable to stop them, she couldn't, where would she take this strength when the guy she loved, the only one she always wanted was breaking up with this relationship she cherished without any worth explanation?
Every tear falling down her cheeks was like a dagger in his heart. He was witnessing his soulmate crying, the girl he loved more than anything.
The worst part was that he was the cause of this stream of tears on her cheeks yet he should act stoic.
"You can't just leave me like that, not after the way you fucked up with me over this month."
"Am I no more the one you desire?"
"Don't be a coward and tell me you have another girlfriend and you don't want to risk your new relationship" She monopolized the speech for a moment.
"But please don't tell me this bullshit, this fucking reason, neither my parent nor my brother will be angry knowing we love each other" she groaned without leaving the occasion for a word to escape his mouth.
"If you love me as you pretended before you fucking steal my virginity let us face this situation as a couple" She spoke with a sob in her voice holding Daniel's shirt.
He couldn't understand or explain where he found the strength to not escape any tears during her speech.
Despite the pain, his decision was irrevocable, how kinder's father would react when he would know the guy with who he has always been so delightful was the one fucking with his daughter.
Beyond every fear, what would his best friend, Rune Houlton, who knew Daniel's adventure with all his ex-girlfriends would think about this? He would never believe in a Changement in his behavior.
He didn't utter a word since her speech, since this monologue, the room was silent.
"I know you love me as I do, let us face whatever will come against us" She broke the silence filling the room with her soft and tiny voice, her arms wrapped around his waist.
"I will tell you the truth if it is what you need" He finally opened his mouth.
"I have never loved you, the only thing I wanted was your pussy, and I got it, you were just an amusement for my cock as every other girl was" he expressed without any stutter, without any fear through his emerald eyes.
At his words, she stumbled on her ass, her knees weren't able to support her, and she was experiencing pain she didn't believe could exist.
"It isn't the truth, I know you love me as much as I do, stop wearing this mask of the heartless guy, it doesn't fit you" she cried out, her eyes wide open with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Why do you think I have to leave the district?" he questioned with a sneer bending to her, with a hold on her chin to make her face him.
"My parents won't be angry, my brother will accept it with time, don't leave please." She blurted.
"Everything will be okay" She didn't stop speaking.
"It is just a part of the motive" he started
"I have another girlfriend and your brother knows the love I have toward her, he wouldn't agree after noticing I used his sister for sexual fun"
"It is why I am leaving" he asserted, with unwavering composure.
"stop thinking it is because of your brother"
"Therefore, please stay away from me, it is for your good" he added.
Kinder was on the floor, stunned, unable to believe what she was witnessing.
He stood and motioned to his luggage already packed, he was leaving her with all the hopes and feeling she had nourished toward him broken.
"WHY?" she cried out with a sob.
"Why have you taken my virginity if you knew you would leave? Why?" she yelled, crying, with her hand on her chest as if she tried to hold her heart to not fall.
"It was just for fun" he explained, laughing hard, it was the only way he found to exteriorize his sentiment, to let out the pain and rage he was feeling.
"Hate me" Those words, those two words were the last she ever heard Daniel pronounce and he left the room.
Leaving the room and his past behind him, leaving her in empty sentiment.
She was broken, lying on the floor unable to gather the strength to follow him.
She looked at him, crossing the door, and without any other words, he closed the door behind him and went away.
After marking some footsteps away from the door, he quietly wiped the tears dropping down his cheeks and he fell to his knees.
"It was for our good" he pronounced, trying to comfort him with these words.
But they were hurt, both of them were broken, and nothing could heal them.
Maybe they would heal with time from this wound.
Maybe.

King of the Underworld
However, one fateful day, the King of the Underworld appeared before me and rescued me from the clutches of the most powerful Mafia boss's son. With his deep blue eyes fixed on mine, he spoke softly: "Sephie... short for Persephone... Queen of the Underworld. At last, I have found you." Confused by his words, I stammered out a question, “P..pardon? What does that mean?”
But he simply smiled at me and brushed my hair away from my face with gentle fingers: "You are safe now.”
Sephie, named for the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone, she's quickly finding out how she's destined to fulfill her namesake's role. Adrik is the King of the Underworld, the boss of all bosses in the city he runs.
She was a seemingly normal girl, with a normal job until it all changed one night when he walked through the front door and her life changed abruptly. Now, she finds herself on the wrong side of powerful men, but under the protection of the most powerful among them.
Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Ignition And Ice; A Racer's Forbidden Blueprint
The first? Becoming an architect worthy of finally making her mark.
The second?
Convincing herself that one day, Hayes Gallagher–NHL superstar, lifelong best friend, and the man she’s secretly loved for years–will finally see her as more than the girl who’s always there when he needs her.
He doesn’t.
So when Hayes abandons her for yet another girl, Merritt decides she’s done waiting.
One reckless night later, she ends up in the arms of a stranger whose touch makes forgetting Hayes dangerously easy.
She never expects to see him again. Until that stranger turns out to be Stellan Mercer.
Formula One’s most infamous golden boy. And Hayes’s stepbrother who is the one man Hayes would rather destroy than share a room with.
When Stellan uses his influence to make Merritt lead designer on his luxury penthouse project, staying away from him becomes impossible.
Working behind closed doors quickly turns into a secret neither of them can afford. Because the more Merritt falls for the man she was never supposed to touch… the more Hayes realizes he may have lost the only girl who ever truly loved him.
And when jealousy, family rivalry, and the spotlight collide, Merritt will have to decide which dream she’s willing to lose.
Her career, her heart. Or both.
Cursed To Be His
At thirteen, everything changed.
After her parents were murdered, she was cursed by a powerful witch and used as a vessel for Elder magic. Saving her life came at an impossible cost; the curse was broken, but so was the wolf inside her, leaving her human.
Ten years later, Talia hides her grief behind sharp sarcasm and a smile she no longer believes. When a rogue attack proves she can no longer protect herself, or the people she loves, she leaves the only home she's ever known for the quiet human town of Ashbourne Hollow, determined to disappear.
Instead, she catches the attention of the town's most dangerous owner.
Alaric Lazarus is a vampire who rules from the black castle overlooking Ashbourne Hollow. He is cold, enigmatic, and impossible to read, but he awakens something in Talia she can't explain. She doesn't trust him. He trusts her even less.
Then vampires begin turning up dead.
Forced into an uneasy alliance, Talia and Alaric uncover a trail that leads back to the family she lost... and the curse she thought she'd escaped. As old enemies emerge from the shadows and buried secrets come to light, Talia discovers that everything she believed about her past was a lie.
Because the curse that stole her wolf was never meant to save her.
It was meant to lead her to him.
This is book 3 in the series, but it can be read as a standalone.
Book 1 - The Matchmaker
Book 2 - The Heir of Flame and Fang
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

Offside Temptation
Ethan Ryder was a disaster waiting to happen. Hot-headed, reckless, and constantly one bad decision away from ruining his career. I was supposed to hate him. Instead, I memorized him. I learned exactly how to push his buttons on the ice just to see the fire in his eyes.
When he grabbed my jersey in that locker room and kissed me in front of twenty cameras, it wasn't a mistake. It was the moment the line between hatred and obsession finally snapped. The media called it a scandal. They called us a divorced couple. But they didn't see the way Ethan trembled when I cornered him in the hallway afterward.
"You're staring again," he whispered, his back hitting the wall.
"You're still here," I replied calmly, stepping close enough to feel his erratic pulse.
He thought I was cold. He thought I was controlled. He didn't realize that every time he looked at me, I was fighting the urge to completely destroy the distance between us.
Now, the league is forcing us to live together, train together, and smile for the cameras to fix our public image. But the more time we spend alone in my apartment, the harder it is to pretend I just want to play hockey...
Taste of Fate: The Vampire King's Human Mate
He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.
He moaned against my throat as he drank, and the sound was devastating.

When frost meets fire, the world shatters. She was never meant to leave her tower. He was never meant to find her. But destiny doesn’t bow to kings or care for cages and now the question burns through them both: Can Bella have her Beast? Or will the girl of snow melt in the heat of his desire?

"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.

"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
