Men like us, we see things. We do things, things that make us unfeeling. That’s the price of power and money, of living la belle vie and running the French mafia. Then she came along like a pretty wildflower pushing through the cracks on a dirty pavement - fragile yet resilient, a breath of beauty among the filth. She was supposed to be just another job, a nameless person I was to pluck from her life and hand to my brother, nothing but a pawn in the gamble of our diamond business.

Zavir is a guardian. He's the best the Krinar has. His assigned vocation is to uncover the Resistance movements popping up around the earth and eliminate them. New information about a fast-growing Resistance camp sends him to Costa Rica, home of the largest Krinar Center. His informant is a human girl. She wants to make a deal - her traitorous family's lives in exchange for information - but Zavir doesn't make deals, and he takes no prisoners.

Once upon a time, a thief stole me in the middle of the night. He took what he wanted, gave me an illusion, and ripped it all away to claim his ultimate trophy. My heart may be physically weak, but fighting to live made me stronger. I won’t perish as easily as that. I’m turning the tables on him. After all, I learned from the best. I’m robbing him of what he stole from me.

Ich dachte, nichts wäre schlimmer, als zu sterben. Dann entdeckte ich, dass es Dinge gibt, die weitaus schmerzhafter sind als eine Chemotherapie – zum Beispiel, wenn dein Herz von einem wahnsinnig mächtigen, übermenschlichen Prinzen zertrampelt wird, der behauptet, dass du seine Gefährtin bist. Und das gleich, nachdem wir die Paarung vollzogen hatten.

In einer Minute bin ich in einem Krankenhaus, kurz davor, den Löffel abzugeben, und in der nächsten bin ich in einem seltsamen Dschungel, der von unglaublich übergroßen Käfern und dämonenartigen Eidechsenmenschen wimmelt, die entschlossen sind, mich zu versklaven. Nein, ich bin nicht gestorben. Und nein, es ist leider keine Halluzination.

Er bietet mir Schutz an, aber das Bett eines Mörders ist kein sicherer Ort für mich. Ich habe mich in eine missliche Lage gebracht. Mächtige Leute auf beiden Seiten des Gesetzes wollen meinen Tod. Ein Mörder braucht mich aus egoistischen Gründen lebend, aus Gründen, die ich mir in meinen wildesten Träumen nie hätte vorstellen können. Ich bin nicht sicher im Bett eines kaltblütigen Mörders, aber ich habe keine Wahl. Einerseits bietet er mir Schutz, andererseits zieht er die Schlinge um meinen Hals zu. Ich bin in seinem Netz aus Lügen und Betrug gefangen.

One year after her mother’s death, a woman prepares to celebrate her fortieth birthday. Digging through a trunk in the attic, looking for keepsakes for the occasion, she discovers photographs that call into question everything she believed about her life. The truth is a different story—one of a little girl in danger, a lie, and a mother’s love so fierce it led her to do the unimaginable.

Das ist der Preis für Macht und Geld, dafür, dass wir la belle vie leben und die französische Mafia leiten. Dann tauchte sie auf wie eine hübsche Wildblume, die durch die Ritzen eines schmutzigen Pflasters wächst - zerbrechlich und doch unverwüstlich, ein Hauch von Schönheit inmitten des Schmutzes. Sie sollte nur ein weiterer Job sein, eine namenlose Person, die ich aus ihrem Leben reißen und meinem Bruder übergeben sollte, nichts weiter als ein Pfand in unserem Diamantengeschäft.

No matter how hard I try, I can’t escape him. No one can keep me safe. Every year on my birthday, he brings me a gift, each one having a detrimental effect on my life with unimaginable consequences. With every gift he offers, he claims another one of my firsts. Before I know it, he’s taken control of my existence, turning me into a nervous wreck, because when I turn 18, I know what first he’ll come for next.

Ian Hart stole a night of my life, but he took so much more. His obsession pinned a label on me. His lust put me in an impossible situation. Now I have to choose sides. I have to decide between right and wrong. Only, no matter what choice I make, each comes with dreadful consequences. There’s only one way this can end - how every tragedy ends.

Ian Hart is the most notorious criminal in the country. Like the thief he is, he came in the dark and stole a night of my life. He left me with souvenirs. Disaster and fear are my new realities. I’ll forever look over my shoulder, terrified he’d return, because when he took me, he stole more than just a few hours of my time. His crime has consequences neither of us could’ve imagined. If I’m to escape the nightmare of my life, I have to outsmart him.

I got myself in a predicament. Powerful people on both sides of the law want me dead. A killer needs me alive for his own selfish reasons, reasons I never could’ve imagined in my wildest dreams. I’m not safe in the bed of a cold–blooded murderer, but I don’t have a choice. On the one hand, he offers me protection, and on the other, he tightens the noose.

All Zane wants for his birthday is a dog. A real dog. A guy's dog. But his mum brings home this little mutt and wants to call it 'Fluffy'. Seriously? It's shaggy, smells undead and bites people. And why do its victims all turn sluggish and keep asking Zane for brains? One by one, everyone he knows is becoming infected. Join Zane as he takes on the neighbourhood zombie plague.

I never dreamed of getting married. I dreamed about freedom. When my stepfather promised Leon Hart a partnership in his clandestine software company, he offered me as part of the package deal. It’s a win-win situation for both men. My stepfather gets rid of his damaged stepdaughter, and Leon becomes second-in-command of the biggest underground IT operation in the country. I’ll do what I must to escape my fate. Even if it means turning my powerful and dangerous betrothed into my worst enemy.

Ian Hart is the most wanted fugitive in the country. His gang is linked to the riskiest and biggest heists in the history of the continent. His identity is an enigma to everyone except me. Because, the night he robbed the casino, he set his sights on a different target.

In my line of business, every day dawns with the smell of death in the air. But it’s not a bullet that’s going to slay me. It’s Sabella, the woman who was promised to me—the woman who betrayed me. We’re heading down a path of destruction, but there’s no turning back. At the first chance she gets, she’ll stab me in the back again. She’s a dangerous risk and a threat to my family. If I were wise, I’d eliminate that risk and leave her funeral to the sharks. I must be an idiot, because I’m going to finish what I started, no matter the cost.

A deal sealed with a handshake promised she’d be mine. A broken vow ripped her from my future. I made unspeakable sacrifices to claim what rightfully belongs to me. After all the blood I shed in her name, the bond that ties us is hatred. The war cost us both dearly, but the price we paid won’t be in vain. I’ll never let her go.

Ich bin über etwas gestolpert, was ich nicht entdecken sollte. Ich habe etwas gesehen, was ich nicht sehen sollte, und jetzt bin ich ein Alibi für einen Mörder. Er ist der meist gefürchtete und mächtigste Mann in der New Yorker Unterwelt. Ich habe keine andere Wahl, als zu tun, was er sagt. Aber er verlangt so viel mehr als meine Zeugenaussage.
