Chapter 1 Lena's Life Turns Upside Down

Lena had always been a successful lawyer, living in the heart of the city. Her days were filled with high-stakes negotiations and complex legal cases.

One day, she walked home from work very late at night, because she had a case in the court to deal with.she felt a strange sensation wash over her. Suddenly, she was filled with a primal urge to hunt, to run, to howl at the moon. Lena didn't understand what was happening to her, but she knew that something was different but she manage to sleep because of her case hearing tomorrow.

Lena woke up from sleep and dress up for the Court still feeling what she felt like chainging her self to be in the bush. She took her way to the Court.

Judge: All rise. Court is now in session.

Lena: (standing up) Good morning, Your Honor.

Judge: Good morning, Ms. Lena. Please be seated. Who do we have here today?

Lena: I am representing Mr. John Smith, Your Honor.

Judge: I see. How does your client plead?

Lena: Not guilty, Your Honor.

Judge: Very well. Let's proceed with the trial.

Lena: Thank you, Your Honor. I would like to request a few moments to confer with my client.

Judge: Granted. Please proceed.

(Lena approaches her client and whispers to him)

Lena: Your honor, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we are here today to defend my client, Mr. Smith, who has been accused of attacking a human being while in the form of a werewolf. I would like to argue that my client is not responsible for the attack, as he was not in control of his actions at the time.

Prosecutor: Objection, your honor. The defense is trying to argue that werewolves are not responsible for their actions. That is simply not true. Mr. Smith knew the risks when he chose to become a werewolf.

Judge: Overruled. Ms. Lena, please continue.

Lena: Thank you, your honor. I can attest to the fact that when werewolves transform, they lose all sense of their human selves. They become pure animals, driven by instinct and primal urges. It is not a choice the make, it is a curse that has been thrust upon them.

Prosecutor: But your client knew the risks. He chose to become a werewolf.

Lena: He did not choose this life, your honor. He was born into it. And while he may have made the decision to embrace his werewolf side, he did not ask for the curse that has been placed upon him. He did not ask for the responsibility that comes with it.

Judge: Ms. Lena, what evidence do you have to support your argument?

Lena: Your honor, we have medical records that show that my client has a genetic marker that is present in all werewolves. This marker is responsible for the transformation, and it is something that my client cannot control. Furthermore, we have eyewitness accounts that show that my client was not in control of his actions at the time of the attack.

Prosecutor: But that does not excuse the fact that he attacked a human being.

Lena: Your honor, my client is not denying that he attacked the victim. What he is saying is that he was not in control of his actions at the time. He did not choose to become a werewolf, and he did not choose to attack the victim. It was simply the curse that took over.

Judge: Ms. Lena, I am sympathetic to your argument, but I must also consider the safety of society. If your client is unable to control himself, then he poses a danger to others.

Lena: Your honor, I understand your concern, but my client has taken steps to ensure that he does not pose a danger to society. He has voluntarily placed himself in a secure facility during the full moon, when the transformation occurs. He has also sought therapy to help him cope with the effects of the curse. He is doing everything he can to ensure that he does not harm others.

Judge: Very well, Ms. Lena. I will take your arguments into consideration as I make my decision. Court is adjourned

Lena finished with her case her and she was happy because it went successful,not knowing she also have the genetic maker of the werewolves.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
