Chapter 1
Taylor's POV
I turn around and block my ears with the pillow. The walls are so thin that every single movement can be heard as if they are doing it right beside me.
The pillow does nothing for me causing a groan to come from me. I get out of bed and walk to my closet, pulling some sweat out of my drawer. I pull the matching hoodie out and throw it on.
Kelsey, my roommate, seems to moan even louder and I squeezed my eyes shut at the embarrassing sounds.
I wonder what random guy is going to be walking around our apartment shirtless this time. I pull my black fuzzy slippers on before pulling my door open and locking it. I walk through the tiny apartment to get to the door before walking out.
I take the stairs to the lower level before knocking on my friend, Janie's door.
She answers half asleep before letting me in. "You need to move out of that apartment. Move in with me." She says as I hop into her bed. She gets in next to me.
"I want to. I really do, J, but I barely have the money to pay my half of the rent in our crappy apartment. How will I pay for this one? Hell, how do you pay for it all on your own." I stress and she laughs.
"Daddy's paying, sis. I just buy the food. Dad loves you so that is just one more reason to move in." She says smiling at me. I chuckle looking up at the ceiling.
"Thank you but I'm not sponging off of you guys. Your dad works hard for his salary and so do you. I'm not moving in." I say stubbornly and she laughs. "Stubborn as always." She mumbles and pulls me closer to her.
"Sleep child." I say before my burning eyes shut.
I wake up to my phone ringing. Patting around the bed I find it underneath me.
"Hello?" I groggily speak into the phone. "Where are you! You are twenty minutes late, Taylor." I hear Maggie whisper and yell and I jump up.
"Oh goodness." I panic jumping out of bed. Janie is still asleep and I roll my eyes. "Janie wake up. You're going to be late. I'll be there in 10, Maggie." I say and she groans.
I rush out of her apartment and start pulling my clothes off as I get to the door. I push it open as I pull my shirt off. I bump into something hard and jump back when I feel hands on my bare waist.
A scream leaves my lips when I see a really tall, really handsome man standing in the middle of the apartment. He makes it look even smaller than it is and the look on his face makes it clear how unimpressed he is with the place. The expensive-looking suit hugs his body just right and I can't help but stare at his bulging biceps.
Reality dawns on me and I cover my bra clad chest. "Who are you and what are you doing in my apartment?" I ask backing up.
He opens his mouth to speak but I raise my hand. "You know what never mind. You're probably one of Kelsey's flings. I am late for work and I don't need to be dealing with this right now." I say rushing passed him to my room. I unlock the door before shutting it and locking it again.
My cheeks heat up at what just happened but I brush it off before changing into my work clothes. I brush my hair as fast as I can before putting it into a ponytail.
I grab my bag, my toothbrush and some Chapstick off of my dresser before rushing out and locking my door again. The man is now seated on the couch and I stop.
God he's beautiful.
I walk over to Kelsey's door before banging on it. "Wake up! Your friend is still here." I yell before waking to the front door.
"Help yourself to anything in the kitchen but please don't touch my chocolate." I say before slamming the door shut.
I rush down the stairs before practically running the whole two blocks to my workplace. It wasn't easy with all the New Yorkers on the sidewalks.
I slide my ID through the scanner and I walk through, into the elevator, going straight to the conference room. Leaving my bag in the corner, I pop a piece of gum in my mouth as I stand next to Maggie.
"I'm so sorry." I whisper to her and she nods her head. "The buyer is not here yet so you're in the clear." She whispers and I nod.
What do I do here at Stevenson's Construction? I don't know. I just get people coffee, print out documents, organize files and I get a paycheck of $87.5 at the end of the week.
My biggest concern now is whether or not I'll still be getting that paycheck every week when the place is sold. The buyer is coming today to sign the last of the papers from what I've heard and everybody is at risk of losing their jobs.
I stand by the door with Maggie, softly chewing my gum as we wait. Ten minutes go by and two men approach the conference room with the boss' assistant leading the way.
I pull the door open and Jason walks in followed by a tall dark man and finally a very familiar face. So familiar that I saw this face thirty minutes ago. My eyes widen and his light up in amusement. I look down as he slowly walks past me. "Shit." I mumble under my breath.
The man that I was so rude to not even an hour ago is sitting 5ft away from me at a table that holds my freaking boss.
They all take their seats and immediately start talking business.
"Taylor. Their glasses are still empty." Maggie says through clenched teeth and I look up towards the three men.
Mr. Handsome is looking directly at me when I look toward them and I suck in a deep breath. "Taylor go." Maggie says and I walk toward the table. There is a smirk on his face and I feel my face heat up as this morning's rudeness plays back in my head.
Why is this crap happening to me.
I grab the pitcher of water before filling the three glasses. My hand is shaking so much that I'm actually amazed at how I managed not to spill the water.
I place chilled bottles of juice next to their glasses before standing up straight and placing them where every man is seated. Mr. Handsome keeps staring at me and I try to focus solely on getting their refreshments to them.
Once I'm done, I stand up straight ready to walk back when my wrist is caught by a huge hand.
"I would like a cup of coffee, please." He speaks and I feel my whole body tingle. "Right away, Sir." I say as respectfully as possible before looking at the other two men who both decline.
I walk away and straight out of the conference room to the kitchen. I cover my face with my hands before running them through my hair. "What the hell." I say to myself.
The man that I was so rude to in my apartment this morning might be my new boss. I'm screwed.
I prepare the coffee before putting it on a serving tray with sugar, milk and creamer before walking out.
Maggie opens the door for me and I walk in and towards the table.
I place everything down in front of him before standing back and letting him finish. He just picks up the cup and starts drinking it like that. No sugar. No cream. Just bitter, black coffee.
I pick the tray up and walk away to the kitchen.
The meeting drags on for another two hours and I was successful in not making eye contact with him the whole time.
I see him sign the papers before getting up and shaking hands with Mr. Stevenson. "It was nice doing business with you Dimitri, Chris. I can finally go into retirement." Mr. Stevenson says and I smile. He's a nice man from what I've seen and heard. Not like the tyrants that everybody complains about.
Dimitri. That's a nice name for a nice face.
"The pleasure is all ours, Mr. Stevenson. I'll take good care of her." Dimitri says and I blush as he makes eye contact with me. Looking away quickly, I get up and smooth out my skirt.
They walk towards the door and I pull it open. "Good day, ladies." Dimitri's friend, Chris, says winking at us. I give a polite smile and Maggie grunts.
She has this huge dislike for flirts. Both men and women. If you look like a player, she will automatically make a huge, imaginary red "X" across your face. Chris sure looks like a player.
Dimitri just walks out without saying anything. They hop into the elevator and the doors close.
"Finally." I sigh and Maggie taps my shoulder. "What was that all about?" She says and I turn to her with a raised brow.
"What?" I ask as we go to clear whatever's on the table still. "Mr. white chocolate was eyeing you up for most of the conference. And don't get me started on the little moment you had by the door. Yes, I saw that." She says and I blush.
"He was in my apartment this morning. One of Kelsey's boy toys. I had to sleep at Janie's because they made so much noise at 3 this morning. Reason why I was late. Sorry again." I explain to her and she scowls.
"Why don't you just move out? She is a horrible roommate, Taylor." Maggie says as we walk to the kitchen.
"I can't afford to move out and now with the new boss, I don't know if I still have a job because I was so rude to him this morning. I better start job hunting." I tell her and she laughs.
"You? Rude? To anybody? Don't make me laugh. You're the sweetest person, Tay." She says and I shake my head.
"I will apologize then next time I see him." Hopefully not at my apartment when I'm rushing in half-naked at 7 in the morning.
"You do that. Get his number while you're at it. You need some dick in your life and he looks like he gives it good." Maggie says and I gasp. My cheeks immediately tint pink and I cover my face.
"Maggie!!" I yell with a small laugh and she walks out laughing loudly.
"Crazy woman."

THE CHRONO WITCH: BENDING TIME TO SAVE HIM
What she wasn't ready for was finding out Zayn Ponteris had been dead the entire time.
The grief shatters something inside her. And before anyone can stop it, Kayla does something no sorceress should be able to do—she travels back in time.
Suddenly she's fifteen again, standing at their end of year formal, with Zayn alive and right in front of her, completely unaware that in another timeline she watched his parents mourn him.
This time, Kayla is determined to save him. Except nothing goes according to plan.
Zayn has a girlfriend. And the closer Kayla gets to changing his fate, the more she realizes her powers are bigger and more dangerous than she ever imagined.
The supernatural world is closing in. The clock is running out. And the one person standing between Kayla and everything hunting her is the same boy she keeps bending time to protect.
Kayla has no idea what's in store for her.
Because when you bend time, fate bends back.
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
Everybody is Guilty Here
Middlesbrough's underworld is a dangerous game, and Matthew Smith finds himself right in the middle of it. A once-feared gang leader, he is now forced to be a pawn in a deadly cat-and-mouse game. Matthew's only shot at freedom is helping the police bring down Mr. K, the elusive mafia boss of the city. The only problem is that the detective he is forced to work with is the same man who arrested him years ago.
Masahiro Payne is everything Matthew hates: cold, calculating, and relentless. But their only hope for survival is by pretending to be a happy couple, blending in amidst dangerous crime, deceit, and power struggles. The closer they find themselves to taking down Mr. K's empire, the more they are attracted to one another, an affair too potent to turn from.
As their undercover mission spirals into a web of lies and hidden desires, they face a growing threat from all sides. But the greatest risk is the one they can't control-their own feelings. With every touch, every stolen kiss, the line between their fake relationship and real emotions blurs.
In a world of betrayal, trust is a luxury, and falling for each other may be the deadliest mistake of all. Can they survive the deadly mafia games or will their passion be their demise?
The MC Hacker’s Stolen Princess
She did not come to find out her father had promised her to another man.
As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.
Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.
Tango 2 the Alpha's Heart
My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody.
I found myself molded to Lex's will, my feet irresistibly following the dance steps.
The crowd gasped as Lex pulled me into a more intimate position, his hands roaming over my body in a seductive manner.
The experience was both terrifying and magical, allowing me to feel every longing emotion through the dance.
I soon found myself lost in his arms.
When the music finally stopped, my arms were wrapped around his neck, his hands resting on my back, our noses almost touching. He gazed deeply into my eyes.
The ballroom fell silent.
