Slow Burn

For as long as she could remember, Mina pretended to be an ordinary person, kept quiet, and hid her special magic from people.

Marina Andriivna lived a long life, but a lonely one, because she never learned to trust men, but always wanted family happiness.

Що ж буде робити Міла з спадком та чоловіками - поки залишається таємницею...

He's been married three times, abandoned three times, and on the third day of the third month, his mother passed away. He undoubtedly has no fond memories of that number; however, as the only Omega in a family ruled by prestige and power, he must marry as many times as necessary until he fathers a pup. Amidst his loneliness and sadness, his fourth marriage is arranged with a man, an Alpha. One who clearly doesn't want to meet him, because he doesn't want a husband.

One day, I found myself wondering how I could strengthen a relationship I believed I was going to lose, unable to do anything about it. Later, I doubted my own actions when I saw myself bound by a treacherous impulse, and now, I no longer want that wonderful bond of friendship to disappear again.

He didn’t want anything to distract him from his passion. He was clear about that: it was only pleasure, but I couldn’t help falling in love despite who he was. I hid it so well that he ended up just like me, asking me to be his wife. Until that night at the bachelor party, when, trying to surprise him, I saw him with another woman.

A month ago, we slept together.” “I didn’t know you were Petro’s daughter.
