Resumen

Athena Stanford is a 21-year-old orphan living in the bustling city of New York. She is jobless and lonely, but she catches the eye of Caleb Martin's, a charming and successful businessman. After a whirlwind romance, Caleb confesses his feelings for Athena, and they become a couple. However, their happiness is short-lived when Caleb develops a nervous problem that requires an expensive operation. Determined to help the man she loves, Athena takes up various jobs to earn money for Caleb's operation. Her journey leads her to the Elite Restaurant, a prestigious establishment owned by the wealthy and powerful Liam Steele. During her time working at the restaurant, Athena encounters Luke Steele, a notorious playboy known for his perverted interests. Luke becomes infatuated with Athena and starts pursuing her relentlessly, despite her clear rejection of his advances. One fateful day, Athena stumbles upon a beautiful ruby pendant and impulsively decides to sell it to cover Caleb's medical expenses. Unbeknownst to her, the pendant actually belongs to Liam Steele, who values it dearly. Determined to retrieve his precious possession, Liam seeks out Athena, but rather than taking her as a slave as expected, he becomes intrigued by her resilience and independence. Meanwhile, the Steele family faces internal turmoil when Logan Steele, Liam' brother, discovers that Luke has betrayed him by sleeping with Logan's fiancée, Jaden Ravenwood. Seeking revenge, Logan sets his sights on Athena, using her as a pawn to inflict pain upon Luke. With the help of his loyal bodyguard, Flynn Martin's, and devoted right-hand woman, Sandra Scott, Logan begins a dangerous game of manipulation, which further complicates Athena's life and fuels tensions within the Steele family.

Worship in the bedroom

- If she could be my God, then I can gladly worship her my entire life. She met him as a child, he raised her like his daughter...until she fall in love with him. She was the princess of a kingdom, betrothed to another strong king. He was a priest, swore to only love god and never touch or even think about any woman. Will he be able to resist that love and temptation, and stop himself from doing the greatest sin? Did she ever get the love she wanted? Or will she be trapped in a loveless marriage? And will society ever let them two together or the pure love will be treated as a sin? •••••• I chuckled hearing his answer, he was talking like a possessed man, without any emotion. I already knew I was going to get rejected by him, but still, I tried... He is a priest after all and had years of experience in resisting seduction. What was I even thinking when I decided to tell him my feelings? “ Sure Father, I won't get late”, I replied and turned around as I get the worst idea of my life. I can't be more shameless, can I? It's all worth it though...for him, I have no shame. My heart was pounding, and my whole body was shivering because of fear. Was I really going to do this? Hell, yes. The soft silk gown fell from my body when I removed it. My long golden-brown hair was hiding my back but still, it was outrageous to stand naked in front of another man, and it was even more sinful if that man is your father! I saw his lascivious gaze when I turned around after sitting in the bathtub. The rose petals were hiding my body, but my bare shoulder was still visible. It wasn't even allowed for me to reveal my full face to anyone, but here I am, naked in front of a priest. I tilted my head, smirking at his darkened gaze, " Oh, I thought you left…do you want to join me, Father? The water is still warm…” " Stop this madness Xenia, it's enough.”, He grumbled, glaring at me... resisting me. But his eyes, it said it all he was trying to deny. I smirked, " It's not enough, not yet...I know you want it, the way you are looking at me now…” " It's wrong.” “ So you are not denying that you are thinking something immoral for me?” I asked, smirking, and slowly removed those rose petals from my hands. My entire body was on the show for his eyes now, clear, bare...waiting for him to devour like some forbidden fruit. As his eyes took me in, the cold silver cross around his palm turned red. Blood, dripped down his hand as he was taking deep breaths with a clenched jaw…his darkened ocean eyes were still on my bare body but he hadn't taken a single step to come towards me. He could do whatever he want with me, I was wet, nacked...helpless, begging for him to love me..fuck me, use me as he pleased, but there he was, standing like a statue, just staring at me. Never in my life, I'd begged like this before. I am the only heir of this kingdom, the future queen. But I begged for a man's love like a vagrant. And the worst part is, I could gladly beg like this my entire life as long as he wants me to. ••••••• ⚠️ warning ⚠️ In this book, a priest and a princess fall in love, so, there is a lot of dirty and mature content with BDS.M, foul language, and blasphemy, read-only if you can endure this all.) Ah... and also self-harming and triggering scenes made you uncomfortable then read this book at your own risk. "The setting and characters in this story are fictitious, please do not substitute real life."

A New Pretender

Set nearly twenty years after the "Island of the Haunted" movie. Everyone at the Center knows about Jarod while only a handful knew that his name was specifically mentioned in the Center's scrolls as the "chosen one". The thing is... Jarod wasn't the only one mentioned. There was another Pretender mentioned who would come down the road. A girl named Dana. Like Jarod, she was taken from her family at an early age. But there's a difference between Dana and Jarod's abductions. Dana had an idedic (photographic) memory. Though she only remembered what her parents looked like when she was a child. They told her she was from Miami, but she distinctly remembers snow on the ground and the air being frigid as it was winter time when she was taken. A weather condition that's not entirely possible in the southern climate. --------------------------------------------------------------------- There are Pretenders among us. Geniuses with the ability to become anyone they want to be. In nineteen sixty-three, a corporation known as the Center isolated young Pretenders, exploiting their genius for research. But their Pretender ran away... While still trying to locate and recapture their Pretender, the Center moved on to another piece of the prophecy, and found another pretender in a young girl named Dana. "That's not where your home is," Jarod replied. "What do you mean?" "They told you that you were from there so that, if you ever got out, you'd go to the wrong city and state. Makes it easier to capture you." "That's an interesting theory, Jarod. There’s just one thing. They told me I was from Miami, but I’m not. I never had a home.”
