Ruining Sofia by SinfulGuilt

"How could you?" Sofia looked at her husband Hector. "You are overreacting. It's just above you." "I am telling you that a man was... inappropriate to me...he said he wanted to..." Sofia's voice was shaking. "We are all adults here. He has taken a liking to you. Consider yourself lucky. You have no idea where this man can get us. To where this connection can get us..." "I am your wife." Sofia scoffed. "And, I am consenting to this." Hector cut her off. "Hector, don't!" Sofia tried to shut him up, but Hector continued. "It doesn't change anything. Make him happy. He won't be wanting it all the time. He had hundreds of women for him. This will all be over in a month or two. But you can be good friends in the future, and he can be kind to you. And, us!

"You will warm my bed one day. And, your husband will drive you here that day." At that time, she slapped him, but now it seems he had won. Sofia gulped, looking at Hector. Her Hector couldn't be this blind. It wasn't that simple. She could tell that Antonio had spent a great deal of time brainwashing her husband.

The most mundane day gets her in the way of an obsessive trillionaire, who has only one agenda. If you can't have it, ruin it.

ALPHA AND OMEGA by v_adams

Even breathing seemed hard, and all he could hear was the drumming of his heart. Her green eyes stared down at him. Cold. Blank. And yet, he could tell Emery was piercing into his soul, seeing every dark thought and desire he held as she said, her voice low, "I have waited eons to find you, and now that I have you, I am never letting you go." Then she leaned in closer to his ear, whispering, "Besides, I know other fun things we could do without having your dick inside me, little bird," Fuck. ~ London Eli is what people call a 'Yuxrian'. He is half wolf, and half demon, and there is no moment that he is not being reminded of it, and what makes it worse is the fact that his demon side is that of an Incubus and the other side has him as an Omega, two sides that are naturally very hard to resist.
