"Take me home Wesley......I can't go near him. He knows now!"

"Knows what?"

"That I'm in love with a werewolf!"

"Do you take Angelina Adenike Walters as your lawful wife? " the minister said.

"I do" he replied curtly, looking nothing in particular as his eyes void any emotions he was feeling.

The minister turned to the bride  and asked, "do you take Nathaniel Xander Hugh as your lawful husband?" her heart skipped a little, staring at her unresponsive husband to be face before responding in a crooked voice, "I do".

"With the power of God, I declare both of you as husband and wife. You may kiss your bride" the minister pronounced.

Her stranger husband moved to her slowingly , opened her white veil a little as he titled his head to the right side and she closed my eyes expectantly, waiting for his cold lips to hers  but a gush of air passed through her face.

She  fluttered and her eyes opened to know what was delaying him but she was left alone at the altar humiliated.

He left her.

She  was just a replacement.

Stephanie was found in the woods. She had no memory of her life before. She is adopted as an Alpha heir to the strongest pack in the kingdom. When destiny comes knocking everything begins to unravel and fate seems to have a sick sense of humor.

"You are getting married today." My mum's voice echoed from the side of the room as she picked up my veil and fixed it in my hair.

Elsie's worst day ever—late to work, coffee on her favorite shirt... and discovering her boyfriend cheating on her! Worse still, Elsie wakes up in the same werewolf romance book she'd trashed the night before. All she wants to do is get back to her life in the real world. All she needs to do is keep the plot on track and make sure the heroine gets her happily ever after.

Unfortunately, that’s not as easy as it seems. The heroine is more unpredictable than she seems, and the possessive, evil Alpha that’s supposed to be the villain? He’s convinced that out-of-this-world, human Elsie is his mate, and he’s not about to let her go anytime soon.

Elsie may have no idea how to get back home, but she does know one thing: this cliche werewolf romance novel is about to get a hell of a plot twist.

She has long since been predicted as his fated mate by all in their pack having been childhood sweethearts. They make a perfect couple so this would be the perfect love story for them. Surely fate couldn’t take an unexpected twist sending her on a painful path she didn’t expect? That painful path could change the person she once was but may bring an unexpected ally……could it be in a bitter twist of fate Delilah all along had held her hopes on the wrong Alpha?

It all started with the series of dreams Freya has about a man she had never seen before, from when she clocked eighteen until the night, almost two years later, when it all changed.

“Mate,” I could hear him mutter from across the club. The noise of the party people became still in my head. I thought I was envisioning him in my head, and I was going crazy again.
But as he came close to me, the excitement I saw on his face disappeared.
“Human,” He said angrily, his eyes turned dark under the lights.
Unsure what he meant, I went close to him to ask if he had the same dreams as me.
“Do you know me?”
“Yes, I do, actually. A weakling.”

She was a powerful witch, disguised as a maid to the prince who found her attractive yet dangerous.

She clearly had secrets, the prince believed she had something to do with his younger brother, who coveted the throne when they were kids.

But the prince was only half right. Her agenda remained a secret to everyone until the truth emerged...

"How dare you touch me with those filthy hands stained with my father's blood?" he growled, his eyes burning with rage. My hands shook, my heart raced.
"You and I can no longer be mates, Ember. I, Brandon Ryder, now Alpha, reject you as my mate. Accept my rejection."
On the eve of her wedding, Ember's life is turned upside down. Falsely accused of her father's death, she's imprisoned, only to learn the shocking truth—her mate, Brandon, and her best friend conspired to destroy her and her unborn child.
Escaping to protect her children, Ember is caught by Brandon. As she's about to lose everything, she falls off a cliff. Desperate, she prays for salvation, and her answer comes in the form of the feared Lycan Kings of the South: her second chance mates.
With the Grey brothers by her side, Ember becomes a force to be reckoned with. Together, they vow to tear down the Bloodhound Pack that betrayed her, starting with the smallest details and pulling every string. But Ember's path to revenge is far from simple. A stranger appears, claiming to be her betrothed and holding the key to a part of her she thought was lost forever.
Will Ember let fate control her life, or will she make the decisions that change everything before it's too late?

In the rugged heart of the wilderness, where the trees loom like ancient sentinels and the mist clings to the mountains, lies a town that the world seems to have forgotten—an eerie place devoid of a name, yet teeming with mysteries and echoes of past atrocities. The town’s allure is paradoxical; what may first appear quaint soon reveals itself as a harbinger of terror. It is here that Joe and Emily find themselves unwittingly ensnared, their unraveling love set against a backdrop of impending doom. Joe, a man of logic and reason, is haunted by the life he once led. Days in the nameless town morph into a fever dream as he grapples with the palpable sense of dread. Every alley seems to hum with whispers of forgotten nightmares, every speck of dirt on the dusty street echoes with the pain of lost souls. Joe’s heart races with an unshakable urgency; he must escape this confounding labyrinth before it consumes him whole. Emily, however, is drawn to the quaintness of the town. Its rusty charm enchants her in ways Joe never could. The townsfolk, with their enigmatic smiles and hidden stories, wrap her in a warm embrace that Joe’s steady gaze cannot provide. She finds herself limping through the remnants of their marriage, it is in her burgeoning connection with Lucas, a strikingly charming young man with eyes like the stormy sea, that Emily discovers a thrill she thought long extinguished. As Emily dabbles in her new romance, at night, the howl of unseen beasts punctuates the silence, and Joe learns quickly that the woods are not only a physical barrier but a metaphorical one. They are a representation of his isolation and his fight against forces he cannot control.

"I have no sexual experience, I'm a virgin."
"Virgin?"
"Yeah," I said,"remember how I mentioned that to you in the hospital when I got naked?"

"I want you to be my first time."

My fiancé has tried to kill me seventeen times.

Everyone says I'm cursed by the Moon Goddess. Five years, seventeen mating ceremonies—all ending in blood.

An eagle's talons through my spine. Poisoned wine that stopped my heart. Ritual flames that charred my skin. Each time, I survived. Each time, Kael Silverblade held my hand and swore it was fate's cruelty, not his.

I believed him.

Until the seventeenth time.

Blood moon. Three assassins. Nine bone blades cutting precise lines across my body—missing every vital organ, maximizing the pain. I writhed on the sacred stones, screaming until my voice broke.

Three days later, still wrapped in bandages, I heard him talking to his lieutenant outside the healing den.

"Lord Silverblade, she almost died this time. Maybe we should—"

"No." Kael's voice was ice. "Her brother saved my life. My grandfather swore a blood debt—a mating bond to repay it. But goddammit, I love Vira. I've always loved Vira. Not her."

Silence.

"Keep the accidents coming," he said. "As long as she won't let go, we keep going. She'll break eventually. She has to."

I pressed against the wall, tears streaming down my face.

Seventeen times. Not curses. Not fate.

Him.

The male I'd loved since I was sixteen.

But here's what Kael doesn't know—this time, he finally wins.

I won't survive the next full moon.

I was Alessandro Romano's wife in name only—the mafia godfather of Belluno City.
We had the most extravagant wedding this city had ever seen: three thousand guests, flowers lining every street. Everything except a legal marriage certificate.
Over three years, he promised to sign the papers twenty-two times. He canceled every single one.
He would buy two identical necklaces, hanging one around my neck and the other around his mistress's, trading a night spent comforting her for a dismissive apology to me.
After the twenty-one broken promise, I stopped waiting.
I packed my bags and left for the one city he vowed never to enter.
What I didn't know: after I left, the man who ruled the underworld completely lost control.

Kaelani spent her life believing she was wolfless.
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.

But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.

Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.

When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.

For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.

Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.

But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.

And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.

Especially him.

She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.

Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.

At 23, Aeryn is already making waves in the scientific community—fair, bold, and driven by a relentless passion for the unknown. As part of a multinational team, she's been dedicated to the pursuit of one of humanity’s greatest questions: are we alone in the universe? The answer seems to be within reach when they pick up signals from a distant planet, confirming the existence of alien life. But as the team prepares for the next step into a mission that requires sending a human to this otherworldly realm, they abandon Aeryn, leaving her behind just as the stakes reach their peak.

On the alien planet, Alex is as king,a being of immense strength and unparalleled powers. Yet, there’s a void, a missing piece that threatens not just his rule, but the survival of his entire kingdom. His powers are vast but insufficient until he gets coupled and consummates the bond with his chosen bride. Without this, his powers remain incomplete, and the very existence of his people teeters on the brink of extinction. The search for his queen becomes a race against time, with the fate of his kingdom hanging in the balance.

Lena Harper has always been invisible, a nobody from the wrong side of town struggling to survive her mother's string of bad decisions. But when her mother marries a mysterious billionaire, Lena's life takes a dramatic turn. Suddenly, she's thrust into the gilded halls of Crescent Ridge Academy, a school for the elite... and the dangerously untamed.

What Lena doesn’t know is that Crescent Ridge is a sanctuary for pure-blood werewolves, where ancient rivalries and primal instincts dictate everything. On her first day, she crosses paths with Ethan Wolfe, the cold and untouchable heir to the most powerful pack; Liam Blackwood, his wickedly charming second-in-command; and her stepbrother, Caleb Rivers, who hides secrets as dark as the forest surrounding the academy.

What begins as heated animosity between Lena and the three alphas takes a sinister turn when her long-suppressed visions resurface, revealing a bond that ties her to all of them, a bond older than time itself. Her scent is intoxicating, her presence inescapable, and her gift as a seer marks her as both their salvation and their curse.

As Crescent Ridge becomes a battlefield of desire and danger, Lena must navigate forbidden passions, ruthless power plays, and a destiny she never asked for. But with the wolves circling closer and her visions hinting at a catastrophic betrayal, she begins to wonder:

Can she survive being the heart of their obsession, or will the bond that draws them together be the very thing that tears her apart?

Everyone knows Adrian loves me more than life itself. When that car crashed, he threw himself over me and took the hit. First thing he said when he woke up in the hospital: "Where is she? Is she okay?"

Everyone says I married the best man in the city.

What they don't know is this man has married me ten times. And divorced me ten times. All for the woman he's never gotten over.

By the seventh time, I stopped crying. Just signed the papers, packed my things, waited for him to come back like he always did.

I've caught my fiancé Henry cheating ninety-nine times. And every single time, I forgave him.

That's because I have this rare condition—short-term memory loss. Every morning, I wake up with no memory of what happened the day before.

But then, out of nowhere, a car accident actually cured me.

I was so excited. I rushed over to tell Henry the good news, but stopped cold when I heard him outside the door, joking around with his friends:

"Didn't Judy get sick because she walked in on you and Kenna having sex?"

After being abandoned by my husband one last time and rejected by my own son, I finally hit my breaking point.
Because I was dying.
At the very end, fate sent me back to the world I once knew.
And there, love and glory swept over me like a flood.

She built an empire from code. He can’t afford a subway ride. What happens when love crashes through firewalls and fortune? Aspen Carter is a 24-year-old billionaire tech mogul, brilliant, ruthless, untouchable. But behind the sleek penthouses and global power plays, she’s never known love that wasn’t calculated or conditional. Enter Leo Moreno, a broke Brooklyn artist with paint on his jeans and dreams bigger than his rent. He doesn’t care about Aspen’s wealth. He doesn’t even know her name. And when their worlds collide in a chance café encounter, something electric sparks. Something real. But love between two people from opposite universes isn’t easy. Aspen wants to lift Leo up. Leo refuses to be a project. And when secrets, sabotage, and emotional firewalls threaten to destroy what they’ve built, they’ll have to decide: Is love a luxury neither can afford? Or the one thing worth losing everything for?

I married Rowan for love—he only saw a contract.

Desperate to turn our two-year arrangement into something real, I gave it all: my name, my body, even my silence about my deep feelings. But all I got were cold exchanges and closed doors—no emotional intimacy, no warmth, nothing real. Eventually, my heart shattered.

So I walked away: divorce, resignation, and a vow to rebuild on my own terms. My law firm was born—and it thrived, just like I began to.

Only then did he truly see me: brilliant, resilient, once hopelessly in love. Regret drove him to chase me relentlessly, eager to win back the woman he’d overlooked.

Just as my toxic family resurfaced to destroy everything I’d built—this time, he wouldn’t let me face them alone.

This is my story of longing, self-discovery, and second chances. Love here isn’t claimed—it’s earned.

They paid me a fortune to authenticate a masterpiece. It took eight seconds to know it was a forgery — and eight more to understand I was the forgery they'd hired.

The brushwork was my great-grandmother's. The woman they let die in a county ward, calling herself a liar for daring to say the paintings were hers.

The Ashford name sits on three centuries of art, scholarship, and law. None of it is theirs. He stole her words. His wife stole her paintings. They built a dynasty on a woman they erased — and never learned her blood runs in me too.

I'm the lawyer they brought in to seal one more theft. I said no.

By the time they remember her name, they won't have one left to sign.

I donated a kidney to my adopted sister.

Seven days later, I lay on the cold hospital bed, listening to my fiancé and family laughing down the hall.

They were popping champagne to celebrate my adopted sister's discharge.

No one remembered I had just had surgery. No one remembered my nut allergy.

When someone handed me a plate of almonds, I smiled.

I shoved them into my mouth, handful after handful, and swallowed them down. Then I told them I was done fighting for their love.

My fiancé demanded I postpone our wedding. My brother beat me until I bled and locked me on the rooftop to die.

After being abandoned eighty-eight times, I finally learned how to love myself—by cutting everyone who failed me out of my life.

Nora Ashveil had spent twenty-six years being exactly what her pack demanded: obedient, loyal, and completely devoted to werewolf law. She had never questioned the rules that governed her kind. She had never broken rank. She had never once allowed herself to look twice at a human.
Then she met Eli Carver.
He was warm where her world was cold, honest where her world was built on hierarchy and silence, and completely, dangerously unaware that the woman sitting across from him in a rain-soaked diner was the only reason three werewolves standing outside had not already torn him apart.
Nora broke every law she was raised to honor the night she chose him over her pack. What she did not know was that her protection of Eli had triggered something ancient sleeping deep inside her blood, a power so threatening to werewolf authority that the hunt for Eli was no longer about law.
It was about silencing Nora before she understood what she was.
Eli Carver fell in love with a beautiful woman. He had absolutely no idea he fell in love with a revolution.

I could still feel Liam's hands on my body. I reached down for my crotch and stroked it, all the while imagining it were his hands. The picture of his naked frame, still evergreen in my mind, made me harder. His electric blue eyes caused goosebumps to run down my skin. I stroked myself faster and harder. My phone rang in the room but I paid it no heed. I was stuck in my imaginations, picturing my mouth wrapped around Liam's long and hard cock, sucking him like a lollipop. Sucking him till he came in my throat, making me slurp down all his sperm. I moaned out loudly as I neared my peak. At the thought of him bending me over and driving his hard cock through my ass, his balls slamming my butt cheek, I pumped faster and came with a loud groan.


Ethan Blackwood is nothing but a rebel. Born to a reputable and elite family, he is expected to take over the family business but he is anything but interested. During a gala, hosted by his family, that he was forced to attend, he meets Liam Thompson.
Liam Thompson is a self made billionaire who is known for his nonchalant attitude towards the Law. He cares little or less about what other people think.
When the two meet, it's all sparks and butterflies. But there are so many obstacles ahead. What will Ethan do when his parents arrange a contract marriage for him with a one night stand he barely knows? Will he put his family reputation first or will he rebel as always?

On the night my husband’s assistant staged her 99th suicide threat, he hung my grandmother from a helicopter.
“Selena, apologize to Shirley publicly—across every platform—or I’ll drop her into the sea.”
Watching my grandmother’s terrified face suspended in midair, my voice trembled with pain:
“Elvis, just because I called her a homewrecker… you’d threaten Grandma’s life?”
Elvis smiled, his tone dripping with indulgence. “Shirley isn’t like you. She’s sensitive.”
“Besides, I’m only asking you to apologize. It doesn’t mean I’ve stopped loving you.”
Loving me?
I stared at the 999 intimate photos of him and Shirley on my phone, feeling as if my heart had been brutally stabbed.
If that was his idea of love, then I wanted no part of it.
I texted my mentor: “I accept the offer. I’ll go abroad for the design competition in seven days.”
In seven days, I’ll stage my death and disappear—where he can never find me again.

In the terminal stage of cancer, my only life-saving chemotherapy opportunity was bought out by Patrick for Laura, who only had early-stage cancer.

I gave up the treatment plan that doctors said could save my life and swallowed strong pain-blocking medication. The consequence was organ failure and death within three days.

During these three days, I gave up everything.

When I gave all my hard-earned achievements to Laura, my parents smiled with relief.

When Patrick presented the divorce papers and I signed them readily, he sighed and said I was very sensible.

When I pushed Anna to call Laura "mom," she said excitedly that mommy was the best.

Even when I transferred all my properties and assets to Laura, they didn't notice anything wrong.

They just looked at me with relief and said: "Our sensible Flora has finally come back."

But I'm also curious - after I die, will they ever think of me?

Seven years. Seven bonding ceremonies. Seven times a pack of feral strays charged through the territory on the full moon and tore into me before the marking could take.
I thought the Moon Goddess had cursed us.
Then I woke up in the pack hospital and heard my Alpha whispering to her — the delicate white wolf he called his "sister."
"Next time you let them in, could you tell them to go easier? I'm scared she might actually die."
Seven years of attacks. Every single one orchestrated by the man I loved, designed to break me down until I gave up the Luna title and made room for her.
So I played the recording in front of his grandmother, looked him in the eye, and ended the engagement myself.
He thought that was the worst I could do.
He had no idea what those seven years had already cost me — what was already shutting down inside my body while he stood there worrying about her.
By the time he found out, it was far too late.

My organs are failing, rotting from years of toxic lab work.
My only life-saving antidote was stolen by my husband and biased parents, given to adopted sister, Ivy.
I gave up any chance to live, injecting strong painkillers to endure crippling agony.
The price I paid: only three days until my organs shut down completely.
During those three days, I surrendered everything I owned:
I handed over the Ghost formula that monopolized the black market, and my mafia parents looked utterly relieved;
Marcus laid divorce papers before me. I signed without a second thought, and said I’d finally become sensible;
The day before my death, I spent the whole day out with my son, yet he only wanted Ivy for his mother;
I gifted Aphrodite, the beauty serum, as my husband and Ivy‘s wedding present, and every single one praised me for finally being meek and mild.
I thought myself:
When I’m dead, will they feel remorse for the things they’ve done to me?

Twenty-one times.

I've signed the mate bond with Kael Nightshade, Lord of the Black Panther Clan, twenty-one times.

And dissolved it twenty-one times.

Not because we didn't love each other.

But because every few months, she comes back.

Seraphine. His first love. The angel who shattered her wings saving him, leaving her mind fractured and fragile.

"Seeing the mate mark sends her into psychotic breaks," he'd say, burning the bond from my skin. "I owe her my life."

So I'd erase the mark. Burn the contract. Pretend we were never bound.

The first time, I cried and begged. He backhanded me: "Cut the bullshit. We'll rebond once she's back in the sanatorium."

The thirteenth time, I followed them to a tavern and watched him tenderly kiss the scarred stumps where her wings used to be. When I confronted them, he knocked me down and locked me in enchanted restraints for seven days straight.

Sign. Burn. Erase. An endless cycle I couldn't escape.

Until the twenty-first time.

Fire engulfed the manor. Seraphine and I were trapped in different wings. Kael could only save one of us.

"Kael!" I collapsed at the window, smoke choking my lungs. "I'm pregnant—please—"

He shifted into his panther form and bolted toward her room.

The guards dragged me out thirty minutes later. Third-degree burns across my back, lungs filled with ash, blood pooling beneath me.

No heartbeat.

Kael stood in the safe zone, holding an unscathed Seraphine in his arms. From the moment the flames erupted until they pulled me from the rubble, he never looked back.

Not once.

The twenty-first dissolution was my choice.

There won't be a twenty-second.

Determined to uncover the truth, Mia teams up with Colin—the heartbroken fiancé of her husband's mistress. What starts as a cold alliance soon turns into something more, as they unravel betrayal, lies, and twisted desires.

When love is lost and revenge tastes sweet—
What do you do when you catch them cheating?

Corinne Baxter's father was an accountant. Quiet, careful, the kind of man who alphabetized the spice rack. Then someone puts a bullet in him and calls it a robbery. The only thing he leaves her is a claim ticket for a safety deposit box registered under a name she's never heard: Sorrentino.
To open that box, she needs Griffin Sorrentino, heir to the family half the city is afraid of, and the man everyone says ordered the hit. Griffin agrees to help her. He also refuses to explain why. Every answer he gives creates two more questions, and every night she spends inside his house convinces her a little more that the danger isn't coming from him.
It's coming from the one person she trusted enough to call for help.

She was declared dead. They just didn’t expect her to come back richer, colder, and hungry for blood. Lyra Calloway once had everything: a doting father, a rightful inheritance, and a fiancé she trusted with her life. Then her half-sister and fiancé conspired to steal it all, staging a car accident to bury her secrets along with her body. She survived. And for two years, in silence, she rebuilt herself into someone they won’t recognise and won’t survive. Her weapon of choice: Ethan Vance. Cold, ruthless, and the one man with enough power and enough hatred for her ex-fiancé to help her burn his empire to the ground. Lyra offers him a deal, a marriage in name only, insider access to destroy their mutual enemy in exchange. Ethan agrees. But he adds a condition of his own: if she’s going to wear his ring, she belongs to him completely in every boardroom, every bedroom, every heartbeat of the plan. What Lyra doesn’t know is that Ethan isn’t a stranger she recruited. He’s the one who has been circling her life for years, waiting for the exact moment she’d have nowhere left to turn but to him. As their fake marriage entangles them in real desire, real danger, and a revenge plot that runs deeper than either of them planned, Lyra will have to decide if she’s using Ethan, or if he’s always been the one pulling her strings.
