“I can make you scream,” he whispered, “without fucking you, Val.”
Then his tongue flicked against her ear before he sucked it into his mouth, wet and hot, his hips pressing harder into her, making her legs tighten instinctively around his waist.


"In his world, you kneel for one of two things—to beg for mercy… or to beg for more.”

Five years ago, Valerie Ledford let a stranger kiss her like no man ever had. It was supposed to be one reckless night, a dare to savor before marrying into one of the most powerful crime families in New York. And she thought she’d left it behind her.

Until now.

On the eve of taking over her fiancé’s billion-dollar real estate empire, Valerie meets the company’s newest hire: Maximilian Cardini. The same man who once pinned her to a wall and made her question everything. He is as dangerous to her composure as he was that night.

Betrayed by my best friend and boyfriend, I died alone on a snowy mountain—only to be rescued at the last moment by Michael Johnson, the cold-hearted CEO I once rejected in front of everyone. Now, I've been given a second chance.

Armed with memories of my past life, I refuse to play the victim again. When my ex tries to win me back and my "bestie" plots behind my back, I shock them all by publicly declaring Michael is mine. This time, I'm taking control of my destiny—and my heart.

But as old schemes resurface and new threats emerge, can I protect the love I fought so hard to claim? Or will history repeat itself?

It's been ten years now and I've programmed my brain to forget her little did I know that I was deceiving myself.

Things changed when I saw her.
She looked different. She wasn't the same little girl I had fallen in love with. She was now a grown woman.

She was gorgeous.
I needed her beneath me just for one night. I'd get her out of my system and move on.

That was probably a lie.

Months later.

Here I am drowning my sorrow in alcohol on my last night as a single man.
I was getting married to a woman I never truly loved.

Tara gave me a shy smile as she approached the aisle with her father.

Kelsey looked away and ignored me.

I was about to slide the ring on Tara's finger and her father's voice stopped me.

"Stop."

I turned around and faced him.

Tara grabbed his hand angrily.

"Dad what are you doing?!"

Xie Yijin hated me more than anyone in this world.

He called me vicious as a scorpion, said I schemed about everything, stole all that belonged to Lin Wanwan, and destroyed the one he held dearest.

Xie Yijin shielded Lin Wanwan tightly behind him.
The eyes that once looked at me with such tenderness were now frozen over with unmelting ice.
He pointed straight at me, every word cutting like a blade:

"Shen Zhiyi, why don’t you just die?!"

I froze in place, my fingertips ice-cold.
Unconsciously, I still clutched that crumpled, yellowed candy wrapper.

He had given it to me when he was seven years old,
saying that when I grew up, he would marry me
and buy me candies for the rest of my life.

But now…
he only wanted me dead.

He slowly spread my legs.

Now, I feel his big and hard was knocking for me to let him in. It electrifies my whole body!

Ughh...

'Ahhhh,' I hugged him tightly as he buried it a little bit. It's like something inside me is torn that I don't understand. This is what my best friend told me when she lost her virginity to her first boyfriend.

I saw the surprise in his eyes when he looked at me.

'Fuck. I'm sorry. I didn't know,' he said. There is guilt on his face, maybe because he found out that I was still a virgin.

'It's okay. Go on..' I whispered to him. It's now or never. For Pete's sake, I didn't want him to stop, so I hugged him close to me!

He kissed me.

"I'll be gentle," he whispered to my ears. Damn, his bedroom voice is so damn turning me on!

Aria had a rough background. She was the product of Alpha
Damien’s affair with a human, her mother died young, and at eighteen
she still hadn’t awakened her wolf form. Although she was taken back
to the Pack, it was only to maintain the Alpha’s dignity. In Luna’s eyes, she was a symbol of shame, subjected to years of cold stares and
neglect. The only person who truly cared about her was her
half-brother, Max. Max was about to leave for the border camp to attend a year-long
patrol training, after which he would officially inherit the Alpha
position. Before his departure, the one he worried about most was
Aria. So, he entrusted her to his most trusted friend his future Beta, and the most popular young warrior in the Pack, Leo. Leo had always
been flamboyant and unruly, adored by the she-wolves, and was
extremely reluctant to take care of someone like Aria, whom he saw as
a “burden.” However, just before Max left, the Pack’s Doctor held an
apprentice selection. Aria, despite everyone’s ridicule, insisted on
participating and, relying on her exceptional memory and calm
judgment, passed the test to become the Doctor’s apprentice. Because
of the human blood in her veins, she was especially sensitive to human
medicine. She took the initiative to study, combining herbalism with
human medical knowledge, not only gaining the Doctor’s recognition
but also gradually showcasing her talent within the Pack. From a
disregarded “shame,” her presence slowly transformed into an
indispensable medical pillar. During an herb-gathering trip for the Doctor’s apprentice trial, Aria unexpectedly encountered a rogue wolf attack.

In a world of shifters, secrets, and fated bonds, love may be Sienna’s greatest strength... or her ultimate weakness.

In the year 2387, humanity has evolved beyond their biological limits. After colonizing various planets and space stations, augmentation technology and genetic engineering have become commonplace. Humans are no longer satisfied with their natural bodies.

Society is divided into castes based on the level of genetic perfection and augmentation they possess. Commanders sit at the top of the hierarchy – humans with the best DNA modifications and the most advanced augmentations. They lead colonies with absolute power. Below them are the Beta-Engineers, the middle caste with standard augmentations who manage and maintain the colony's technology.

Neural-link is the standard way of life, an implant in the brain that connects all humans in a digital network. Some even enhance their bodies with bionic hair, synthetic organs, and various other advanced implants.

However, amidst this obsession with perfection, there are still a few humans who are nearly pure – almost without genetic modifications and with minimal augmentation. They are considered defective and inferior. Fiora Starfire is one of them, the daughter of a Beta-Engineer family, ironically the one closest to the original form of humanity.

The Genetic Matching Night is an annual ritual where Central AI helps match individuals with the highest DNA compatibility. For most, it is an opportunity to elevate their family’s genetic status. But for Fiora, tonight may reveal something far greater than just a matter of social status. What will happen?

No wolf. No pack. No problem.
Scarlet has two blades, a dying guardian, and exactly three days to convince the most powerful pack in the territory to help her. She doesn't plan on staying. She doesn't plan on the bond. She definitely doesn't plan on four alpha brothers — Liam, Ryan, Davis, and Henry — deciding that the wolfless girl who walked through their gate covered in blood is the only mate they'll ever want.
But something in her blood is waking up. Something old. Something that has been waiting longer than she's been alive.
The boundary between the living world and the Underworld is fraying. Scarlet is the only one who can fix it — Moon Lineage healer, Underworld Queen, and the last person who ever expected to be either. With four alphas at her back and a daughter who inherited her stubbornness, she's about to find out what she was always meant to be.
Scarlet's Claim is a reverse harem paranormal romance about a woman who survived everything and then chose something worth fighting for.

"Are you sure you want this?" She nodded unable to speak even if she wanted to, her brain so overloaded with lust.

My brain must be malfunctioning too, I can't believe I am breaking all the rules by taking her now, before the games. Taking her this way could result in my own lashing or worse. I knew the rules, but any punishment would be worth having her.

"I need to hear you say it beautiful."

"Yes, Lucas please take me." Her voice is borderline begging, I can smell her sweet arousal perfuming the room.

It’s like my body refuses to stop even though I know I should.


Captured and taken far from her home along with fifty other women, she is thrust into a whole new world.

Leaving her beloved hometown and familiar life, she entered an unknown adventure, but she was attracted by two dangerous men. Their similar eyes looked at me with desire and love, and I was lost in this erotic game.

Who's my partner? I seem to feel the burning gaze.

His pupils dilate and my mouth goes dry with the contact. Why am I so drawn to these two men, men who took me and will probably hurt me? Why do I suddenly feel safe when their eyes are on me? I have officially lost my mind.

Warning: this book contains strong, sexual content and strong language.

"I want to find those truly responsible and make them pay for my death," I said when he remained silent.
"I want Silas to know he made a mistake when he burned me at that stake and I want that knowledge to torment him for the rest of his life," I commented as I shuffled on my feet, uncomfortable at how Gary stared at me almost as though he was staring into my soul.

Triggered by the memories of her past life, Scarlett returns to the Nightshade pack to find out those who had framed her and get revenge on them and her former mate Silas.
Silas, however, finds that the new pack member reminds him of his dead mate and he can't help but feel attracted to her despite all his attempts.
What happens when there are more forces at play than Silas and Scarlett could have ever imagined? Will Scarlett let go of her hatred for Silas and build a new life with him or would she let rage and revenge destroy her? Join them as they unravel the web of lies, deceit, and love.

"Listen to everyone present here! You need to know that Isabella is my lover. She is the reincarnation of my lover in the past. Isabella is the incarnation of Elara. So it is absolutely not appropriate for her to be engaged and even marry my brother Ethan. Isabella is mine and still is mine completely. She will marry only me.

"Huh?" I was wide-eyed.

Meanwhile, Ethan immediately became furious after being surprised by the words that Lucas had said which were beyond common sense. Ethan felt angry because perhaps he really didn't want his younger brother to suddenly announce something like that in public. Ethan, who didn't accept it, immediately threw his grip off my shoulders. Then he walked up to the podium to approach Lucas.


Isabella is an omega from Crystal Lake Pack. As an omega, Isabella has a hard life. She is always looked down upon and often ignored by her pack members. However, Isabella has a sincere and loving heart. In her simple life, she never expected to meet someone who would change everything.

One day, Isabella meets Ethan, the Alpha of Storm Ridge Pack. Ethan is a strong and authoritative figure, but behind his strong appearance, he has a gentle heart. Their first meeting occurs at an inter-pack gathering. Isabella’s simplicity and kindness captivate Ethan, while Isabella feels a strong connection between them.

However, their happiness does not last long. On their engagement day, in front of the entire pack, Lucas appears. Lucas declares Isabella is his mate. This revelation shocks everyone, including Ethan and Isabella.

What will happen next in Isabella's story?

"I should have known you were like this, Olivia. You're so... disgusting, I think it's time for us to end,"
"No, Lucas, no..."
Lucas looked at me coldly and said the words that broke my heart, "I, Lucas Mason of Shadowclaw Pack, reject you, Olivia Furlong of Bloodmoon Pack."
"You are no longer my Luna," Lucas said, turning and leaving.
I looked helplessly at the door, tears blurring my vision.


My marriage was the outcome of a Pack alliance, and though Lucas and I weren't Fate Mates, our life together was fairly content.
However, on the day of our wedding anniversary, I was framed for infidelity, and Lucas was furious to reject me.
As I left, bewildered and heartbroken, I unexpectedly ran into my stepsister, revealing her as the mastermind behind it all. She ruthlessly plunged a silver dagger into me and I died in pain.
But the story didn't end there. The Moon Goddess granted me a second chance! This time, I won't allow my stepsister's schemes to succeed, nor will I ever let myself get close to Lucas again.
Little did I know that this new life would be filled with unexpected twists and turns...

She was pregnant?
How could she be pregnant when she was getting married to another man?
How was she going to explain this to her soon-to-be husband? Donovan O’Connell was destined to be the heir to his family’s empire but an accident left him disabled and marrying who his grandfather had picked for him might be his only shot at maintaining his position in the family. But there was one problem. He had someone else in his heart now. Someone he had a one-night-stand with.

“No, I don’t want this… I don’t want you.”

Even as the words left his mouth, Ronan's hands moved without his command, his fingers curling into Dimitri’s linen shirt, as if pulling him closer rather than pushing him away.

“I can’t… stop. What is this feeling, Ronan?”

“By all means, do as you please. Run away as far as you can but keep one thing in mind, I'm going to find you. I'll follow you, Jaselyn. I'll stalk you like you're my prey and I'll catch you.” His warm breath brushes against my neck and I realize just then that he'd somehow bridged the distance between us.
“I’ll make you mine over and over again till I become embedded in your DNA. You'll never be free of me.” His hand brushes against the side of my face, caressing almost lovingly while he says such chilling words to me. All of this feels like a farce, one big stupid comedy but a sad smile tugs at my lips when I realize this is my life.
“I’ll give you everything and then I'll take it away. You'll always be mine, Jaselyn Everhart. Always.”


Jaselyn just wants to make it out of the Pack. Living with her abusive uncle after her parents' death, she dreams of saving up enough to finally run away.
That's until she meets her mate at the annual Peace ball and is claimed by him, only to be rejected the very next day.

AN AGE GAP, FORCED PROXIMITY, BLACK FLAG ROMANCE

Vincenzo Valentini is a man who sees the world as a business counter and human beings as merchandise.

The owner of an empire built upon corpses and submission, he is the reflection of pure perversity.

When fate places Andrew Thompson, the son of his greatest rival, into his hands, the plan was simple: use him, break him, and discard him like a toy that has lost its appeal.

What Vincenzo did not expect was that, beneath the youthful skin and the appearance of innocence, Andrew hid the same abyss as he did.

Vincenzo never wanted redemption. He never wanted someone to save him from his own darkness. He was seeking a mirror. And in Andrew, he found the partner who, upon seeing his blood-stained hands, does not recoil in terror, but trembles with desire.

In this perverse game, the "little toy" proves to be the perfect executioner. The mafia leader found someone who not only accepts his cruel side but cultivates it, feeding the monster Vincenzo has always been.

Where there should have been fear, lust emerged. Where there should have been hatred, a perverse loyalty was born.

Vincenzo opened the doors to his empire, but Andrew was the only one capable of invading his heart.

“Why are you here again?” I demanded, unable to stop my eyes from rolling as I stepped back. Lucien followed anyway, irritation flickering across his face. “Have you forgotten this is my personal space? It’s disrespectful,” he said, voice low and authoritative. I knew exactly what he meant. I snorted. “Oh, please. If I didn’t know any better, I would think you were obsessed with me, Lucien.” His eyes darkened. “I don’t think you should speak to a prince like that. Perhaps titles are in order.” “Which one should I use?” I shot back. “Prince? Dickhead? Asshole? Or stalker?” A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips. “Maybe I should show you the one title I want you to use.” Before I could react, his hand closed around my chin, tilting my face up. His lips crashed into mine, hard, claiming, breath-stealing. When he finally pulled back, his voice was a rough whisper against my lips. “You could call me yours… because you are mine.”

“I would never choose you.”
He leaned closer, so close she could feel the warmth of his breath brushing her cheek, could feel the danger that lay beneath the calm.
“You already did, Haven,” he whispered, almost reverently, “The moment you looked at me… and lived. And I will do anything to keep you safe. Including burning down the entire continent.”
..
They say the rains only fall without end when the Dragon King descends from the skies and claims his bride.

Haven despises him for ripping her from everything she’s ever known. She fights him with every breath, every curse, every act of defiance.

Yet the fire between them burns hotter than her hatred, drawing her helplessly toward the very monster she swore to destroy.

When strange powers awaken inside her and haunting visions flood her dreams, Haven learns the devastating truth: she is the lost daughter of the last fae princess — and the prophesied Fae Queen destined to either save or doom the realm.

She is the only fae in over a thousand years to master the forbidden elements beyond earth. With this rare and deadly power awakening, she holds the key to taming the ancient magic threatening to devour the world.

But as dark forces gather and the seal containing catastrophic destruction begins to fracture, Haven faces an impossible choice:

Master the volatile magic that could save the realm… at the risk of it consuming her from within.

Or surrender to the Dragon King she has unwillingly come to love… and watch the world crumble.

One girl. One forbidden prophecy. One love powerful enough to either end everything , or give rise to a new era.

Living in a house with hockey players was supposed to be a temporary fix. Falling for my brother’s best friend? That’s a permanent disaster.
My brother’s golden rule: Stay away from the team. Especially Jaxson Miller, the hotheaded rookie with a slap-shot that breaks glass and a reputation for breaking hearts.
But when my dorm floods and my brother offers me his spare room in the "Hockey House," I’m suddenly living feet away from the one guy I’m not allowed to touch. Jaxson is everything I should avoid—reckless, loud, and constantly in the penalty box. He’s the team’s biggest liability, and I’m his biggest secret. If we get caught, the team falls apart. If we don’t, my heart might be the one taking the hit.

A glass of drugged water left me completely naked on a hotel bed.

The task in the notebook was to accompany a stranger for three months, or else my nude photos would be exposed to everyone.

I had no choice but to agree and sacrifice my first time.

That night was extremely painful!

Because I was still a virgin, when his strong body pressed down on me, all I could do was grip the bedsheets tightly.

My inexperience made the man frown; "Emily, you slut, why are you suddenly so tight?"

He had mistaken me for someone else. Clearly, the woman named Emily was not a virgin. I couldn't reveal that it was my first time, so I bit my lip and endured the pain as best as I could. It hurt so much!

"Does it feel good, woman?" The man smirked at me, "You just moaned, you know. At least you've made some progress tonight."

Oh my God, did I really moan?

Alison felt unbearable shyness, closing her eyes tightly, desperately hoping for everything to end soon...

"Once upon a time,

In a Land not so far away,

They would commit a heinous crime,

Against the Queen of Hidden Fae..."

Daphne Myrh has always been considered the most beautiful of her sisters, maybe even, of the entire village. When her father is sentenced to death, Daphne's love for her sisters will push her into the palace. She will offer her own life, for her fathers.

Ash has been living in the palace for twenty years awaiting an opportunity to enact his revenge on the old human king. Posing as a human for as long as he has, is getting boring until he meets the kingdom's hidden beauty. The farmer's daughter. The moment he sees her, he knows that she is the one. The key to his vengeance. The perfect tribute sparking an act of war and unleashing a terrible magic upon the mortal realm.

There are three phases needed to conjure this madness.

I. Find a beautiful mortal to enchant the king.

II. Impregnate the tribute with Royal Blood.

III. Sacrifice her on the Ninth Moon of her pregnancy.

The only thing this plan doesn't call for...

Is for the girl to fall in love with her killer. And for the killer, to fall in love with her.

Della's heart was completely broken, and she chose true freedom. She rejected her husband, returned to her home, and resumed her true identity- the Lycan King's most favored daughter!But who can tell her why Kylian satrted to hunt her like a different person after the rejection? Can he make a firm choice between his fated mate and her this time?When they see the other side of the moon goddess' gift, and when Della's fated mate showed up as well, where their destiny will lead them?Read to find out.

The cold blade carved into my cheek, bringing a piercing pain.

"Don't blame me, Emma," my adoptive sister Sophia giggled, her voice like sweet poison. "If your face is ruined, Gregory will only look at me."

On my wedding day, my fiancé abandoned me at the altar for her. My biological family had always loved her, the fake daughter, more than me. Now, she had me kidnapped, my hands crippled, and my face destroyed.

"I'm selling you to the black market," she sneered as they nailed my wooden crate shut. "In this lifetime, you're not even worth my toe."

My world went pitch black.

But I didn't die. Surviving the underground auction and enduring agonizing surgeries, I shed my old skin and my old name.

Three years later, I returned as Emily, a billionaire CEO, arm-in-arm with Gregory's powerful uncle. Seeing my ex-fiancé and my vicious sister tremble before me, I smiled. The nightmare you gave me? I’m going to make you pay it all back, tenfold.

"You can't be serious," Bethany whispered, cradling the emerald Caleb had placed in her hand.
"I've never been more certain," Caleb said, his silver gaze locked on hers. "I would give you the world if I could. But all I want is you. My mate."
Her breath caught. "You barely know me."
Caleb's fingers trailed up her cheek. "I've waited forty years to find you, Bethany. I knew you the moment I caught your scent. And I'm never letting you go."
Caleb is the unmated Alpha of a cursed werewolf pack until he meets Bethany, a shy diner waitress with a hidden strength that shakes his world. For decades, Caleb believed fate had abandoned him. But one glance, one touch, one scent changes everything.

"Undo your trick," he then said, and now he was dead serious.

"What trick?" I asked him, and he got up.

He then picked up a knife. Did he save me just so he could kill me?

Wasn't leaving me for dead enough for him?

He left me to die in that forest after I freed him, and now this.

He then slowly cut his hand, and suddenly, I screamed in pain and looked at him.

Right where he cut his hand, on his left hand, I also had the same wound.

What the hell?

How is it that he cut himself, and yet I also have the same wound?

"This trick, you bonded us together, you stupid witch," he said, his face red with rage.

"No, I didn't, that doesn't make sense" I said, and his eyes started changing colour.

"Fix this now, or I will kill your entire coven. I didn't spend centuries looking for a way to be immortal just so a stupid witch could get me killed," he said, and I froze.

If we are bonded together, then since I am mortal, he is technically mortal as well.

If I die, then he dies as well; how did this even happen?

I didn't do anything; what the hell?

“They begged for mercy,” he said coldly, his eyes distant. “But mercy died the day they killed her.”he snarled, his eyes cold as steel. “They killed the only woman I ever loved, and for that, you’ll suffer.”

My husband swore I was the only woman he would ever love.
Then my half-sister handed me her ultrasound. His baby. Growing inside her.
Three years of marriage. Three years of building everything together. Gone in one moment.
I should have thrown the proof in his face.
But my doctor gave me news that made his betrayal feel like nothing.
So I did something he will never expect.
I disappeared.
Let him search. Let him lose his mind.
He will never find me.

Everyone knows my fiancé, Alex, is the kind of madman who would call off a billion-dollar merger just for me.
For years, he convinced the world I was his one and only, risking the wrath of the board just to keep me by his side.
But that kind of devotion is mostly for show.
In reality, he already had a legal wife—and a baby on the way, carrying his blood.
When I learned the truth, I went straight to my best friend.
"Maya, help me stage a car accident. One where the body can't be identified," I said calmly. "It's the only way I can truly escape Alex."
The night I disappeared, he spent hours kneeling by the burned-out wreck.
He destroyed a high-profile marriage alliance, drove his pregnant wife to madness, and became a complete wreck himself.
But when he finally found me—
He realized I didn't love him anymore.
