Chapter 1 DISASTER

Tears rolled down her cheek, she felt there was no consolation, what was happening to her? Who has she wronged that will do this to her? Why? Why? Why her? She ran out of the crime scene at full speed as she headed for nowhere in particular.

She could hear her friend and neighbor calling out to her but soon enough she ran out of their sight, after a few seconds of catching her breath, she rested her butt on a nearby field, and she burst into fresh tears as she recalled all that happened.

"FLASHBACK"

"Make a few more poses, the magazine cover and Bliss Entertainment needs a lot of pictures for their cover, "Director Linda said.

Just then I received a phone call from an unknown number

"Hello, please who am I speaking with" Annabel said.

The caller from the other end replied

"This is David from the crimes and investigation unit, I am a fan of yours that's why I called you to come over to 8b Linus estate, We found a dead body here" The caller replied.

Annabel was silent for a few seconds lost in thought, "Linus estate rang a bell, but she can't fall into anybody's trap" She snapped out of her reverie and replied

"Sorry sir but I can't come over, Seeing a dead man's body in Linus estate does not have anything to do with me, am a very busy person and if you would excuse me, I would love to go back to what I was doing" Annabel replied

"Wait!!, The body we found here belongs to your fiancé Gregory Linus, I just wanted to inform you" David replied.

The call got disconnected, and Annabel's phone landed on the floor and shattered into pieces, Miara who was standing a few paces away from her walked up to her

"Annabel! Annabel! Annabel! What is wrong with you?" Miara asked

Annabel could hear Miara's voice, but it sounded far away, and soon enough she blacked out.

************

Annabel woke up to find everything blurred, She squinted her eyes and tried adjusting to the light, She stood up from the soft bed, Miara rushed to her immediately and hugged her tightly

"I thought I was going to lose you" Miara mumbled and finally released her

"What happened? Are you okay? Fine I shouldn't be asking that, It's obvious you are not okay, what is wrong with you" Miara said dramatically while chuckling.

She remembered the call she received and started crying. She tried rushing out, but Miara held my hand

"Annabel, what is going on? Why are you crying?" Miara asked concerned

"G.... r...e...g...o...r.y" I stammered a reply while sniffing

"Annabel, breathe in, a deep one, Everything is going to be fine," Miara said while patting my hair roughening it in the process, I breathed in and replied

"Someone called to tell me that Gregory is dead" I replied

Miaras's eyes were almost bulging out of its socket

"Gregory is dead? How? Why? When? Who called you" Miara said all in one breath.

"Miara can you calm down, I don't even know which question to answer," Ann said tearily

"Someone called saying that Gregory's dead body was found in his estate, I want to go and check it out myself" she continued, and Miara nodded her head in understanding

Philip Montez who lived in Annabel's estate walked towards them and Miara immediately exclaimed

"Oh shit!!! Annabel, I forgot to tell you that Philip asked for lunch with you and......." Miara said but was interrupted by Philips's voice

"Hey ladies, it's a pleasure seeing you guys, So lunch" Philip paused

"Ann, are you okay? Your eyes are all red and swollen" Philip continued

"Someone called to tell her that Gregory is dead" Miara chirped in

"WHAT!!!!!!" Philip exclaimed

"We were on our way there" Miara added

"Okay I will take you guys there" Philip replied

Soon they were on the elevator, then the road headed for Gregory's mansion

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What's worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn't thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn't seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he's different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
