Introduction
«Theo, por favor...» Lo digo, pero sale como un lloriqueo.
Puedo sentir la sonrisa en sus labios mientras aspira sobre mi cuello.
«Sé que me quieres, Hayley», dice.
Mueve sus dos manos hacia mi cintura, su aroma me envuelve, lo que me convierte en un lío tembloroso.
Puedo sentir los círculos que hace en mis caderas a través de mi vestido, que es subir mi vestido más alto...
He metido la pata.
Voy a engañar a la persona que ha estado ahí para mí en todos los momentos difíciles.
Hayley y Theo eran novios en la secundaria, pero ocurrió un malentendido entre los dos y Hayley se rompió el corazón. Luego dejó la manada y se negó a regresar durante años.
Con el paso de los cinco años, la madre de Hayley quiso volver a organizar una de sus famosas fiestas navideñas y le pidió a Hayley que fuera sin excepción. Cuando Hayley y Theo se reencuentran en la fiesta, Theo pronto se da cuenta de que le han pasado muchas cosas a Hayley que nunca supo. Las cosas se complican aún más cuando una chica entrometida y algunas otras buscan a Hayley. Cuando Theo y Hayley se dan cuenta de que son amigos, ¿podrá recuperarla después de romperle el corazón hace cinco años?
Chapter 1
HAYLEY
Mi teléfono suena fuerte mientras sigo trabajando en la pila de formularios que quedan en mi escritorio. Gruño en voz alta. Agarro mi teléfono y miro la pantalla para ver quién me está llamando: Mamá. ¿Por qué demonios me está llamando? Suspiro y contesto la llamada, poniendo una sonrisa falsa en mi cara.
—Hola mamá, no puedo hablar. Estoy hasta el cuello con formularios. ¿Es importante? —le pregunto mientras miro por la puerta de mi oficina para ver a mi asistente trabajando con mi novio. No puedo evitar mantener los ojos en ellos.
—Hola Hayley, me alegra haberte encontrado. Me preguntaba si vendrías a casa para Navidad —dice ella—. Decidí hacer nuestras famosas fiestas familiares de Navidad como solíamos hacer antes, todo el grupo está invitado, pero quiero que mi hija esté allí —dice.
—Mamá, no puedo... —pero ella me interrumpe con un suspiro pesado.
—No me digas que tienes que trabajar durante toda la Navidad, la fiesta es dentro de cinco meses, puedes reservar el tiempo libre y quedarte unos días —dice—. Además, tus dos hermanos estarán aquí y como Harvey trabaja contigo y se tomó tiempo libre para pasarlo con nosotros, tú también puedes hacerlo. Será divertido —dice.
—Está bien, te lo confirmaré. Necesito volver al trabajo, tengo mucho que hacer —digo y cuelgo el teléfono. Suspiro de nuevo, en voz alta. Miro a la pareja frente a mí; como soy una mujer lobo, puedo escuchar a unos pocos pies de distancia. Escuché de qué estaban hablando.
—Entonces tengo que agregar la cita en el calendario para ti y asegurarme de que todo se envíe a Hayley una vez que esté hecho —dice Maxine a Shane, quien ahora me ha dado la espalda.
No puedo escuchar más; si me envían más trabajo, tendré que pasar otra noche en vela. Miro alrededor de mi oficina; ya hay seis pilas de formularios por revisar. Suspiro de nuevo y bajo la cabeza, continuando con el trabajo que tenía frente a mí.
Después de una hora revisando los formularios, agarro la pila que completé. Aunque había más allí, pensé que el Sr. Harris podría firmarlos antes de que yo revisara el resto. Salgo de la oficina, sin rastro de Maxine o Shane, pero me encojo de hombros y me dirijo a la oficina del Sr. Norris.
Una vez que entro, toco la puerta y entro. No puedo evitar mirar al hombre. Era un hombre grande, pero tenía un corazón de oro, aunque no podía manejar su dinero adecuadamente, de ahí que yo esté aquí. Soy la que firma cada trato e inversión que se hace aquí, ya sea grande o pequeña.
Coloqué los formularios en su escritorio y estaba a punto de salir por la puerta.
—Hayley, ¿puedo hablar contigo un momento? —dice desde detrás de su escritorio.
Me doy la vuelta y le sonrío.
—Sí, señor.
Él me sonríe.
—Cierra la puerta y toma asiento, por favor.
Cierro la puerta y tomo la silla frente a él. Me mira.
—Sabes que has sido un activo valioso para esta empresa, pero me he preguntado si quieres tomarte algunos días de vacaciones —dice—. Tienes la mayoría de los del año pasado y la mayoría de este año por usar.
No digo nada.
Me mira.
—Hayley, eres buena en tu trabajo y yo me las arreglaré. Pondré a Shane a cargo de tu escritorio mientras te tomas el tiempo libre —dice—. No me gusta hacia dónde va esto. Harvey mencionó que hay una gran fiesta familiar que se celebrará unas dos semanas antes de Navidad, ¿por qué no te tomas el tiempo libre y pasas tres semanas con tu familia?
Lo miro fijamente.
No quiero ir a casa.
—Señor, realmente no quiero... —pero me interrumpe levantando la mano y sacudiendo la cabeza.
—Hayley, te vas a tomar el tiempo libre. Te lo mereces y además, ¿quién no quiere estar con la familia en Navidad? —dice con un toque de tristeza en su voz.
Asiento.
—Si está seguro, podría llevarme algo de trabajo y tiene mi correo electrónico —digo, pero él sacude la cabeza de nuevo.
—No será necesario, Hayley. Irás y pasarás las fiestas con tu familia. Cuando regreses, revisaremos todo —dice.
—Está bien, gracias, señor —digo y me levanto de la silla.
Salgo por la puerta y me dirijo directamente a mi escritorio donde Shane está esperando.
—Hola preciosa, ¿qué quería el jefe? —pregunta.
—Aparentemente necesito tomarme un tiempo libre y pasarlo con mi familia —digo, sonando sarcástica.
Shane me mira por un momento.
—Cariño, es una idea brillante; puedes volver a casa con tu madre y asegurarte de que esté bien. Yo me aseguraré de que todo esté bien aquí. También puedes contarle sobre nosotros —dice con una sonrisa.
Mi loba Raina gruñe.
«Ni de broma lo haremos», dice. Ella ha estado recelosa de Shane durante los últimos cinco meses desde que nos mudamos juntos.
Le sonrío.
—¿Estás seguro de que puedes manejar las finanzas del jefe? La mayoría necesitarán mi firma, pero sé que mi madre tiene una impresora y un escáner en la casa, puedes enviármelos por correo electrónico y yo te los devolveré —digo.
Shane me sonríe.
—Bueno, entonces está decidido, ¿cuándo te vas? Quiero llevarte a cenar —dice.
—En tres semanas —digo.
Shane se queda un rato, pero se va tan pronto como Maxine entra con otro lote de formularios para que los revise.
Una vez que ambos se van, vuelvo al trabajo.
Supongo que voy a volver a mi hogar, al grupo, por tres semanas.
«Podríamos encontrar a nuestro compañero», dice Raina en mi cabeza.
No digo nada.
Los compañeros son algo que me gusta la idea, pero he sido herida en el pasado por un lobo del grupo. Solo espero poder manejar estar de vuelta en casa con mi madre, mis hermanos y también espero que él no esté allí.

“I have waited nine years for you. That’s nearly a decade since I’ve felt this emptiness inside me. Part of me began to wonder if you didn’t exist or you’d already died. And then I found you, right inside my own home.”
He used one of his hands to stroke my cheek and tingles erupted everywhere.

Strings of Fate
Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm.
I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species.
I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate.
Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother.
“What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it.
“Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain.
Nanny and Her Four Alpha Bullies
Secrets of Us: A Forbidden Love Romance
He’s angry from the conversation last night. I can feel it, I can see it in his dark eyes. It’s only confirmed when he slams into me without preparing me.
I cry out and he soothes me with kisses on my neck and nibbles on my skin. Still he doesn’t slow down. He starts at a quick pace, at a strength that already has my legs trembling.
I grab onto his shoulders, cries leaving my lips every time he slams into me. It turn wet, not from the water, but from how much he makes my pussy happy.
