Buy DRM'ed ebooks not from built-in store and without using ADE?

I own a pocketbook sold under the brand Tea for the French market (Tea has now become vivlio if I understand correctly).

It is associated with a built in store (decitre in my case) which allows me to buy books directly from the device. I can also buy books from a windows computer, download them with ADE and transfer them on the device.

Unfortunately the built-in store does not contain all the books I'd like, and I'd like to not use a windows computer as I mainly use Linux.

Is there a way to buy ebooks from elsewhere than my built-in store AND without using ADE, either directly from the device or from a Linux computer?

I doubt that the customer service would let me change my built-in store and anyway I think I would need several as I read both in English and French. I am also unwilling to physically open my device, and would like to avoid rooting it for changing the built-in store.

This question must have been asked several times but I was unable to find an answer, sorry for asking again.

ETA : running ADE from Linux with wine doesn't work for me.

ETA : I'm also not willing to buy from amazon.
