"We get married. For two years. Publicly. Legally. The whole deal."
I blinked. Then laughed—a short, breathless sound. "You're joking."

But I won't be their collateral damage.
With Andrew—Nathan's former best friend turned sworn enemy—I strike a deal.
A marriage of convenience. A partnership built on strategy, not love.
Two years to regain control. To uncover the truth. To bring them both down.

This is war.

The Beast of Green Manor is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers story filled with tension, emotion, and the kind of love that changes lives, because sometimes, the person you hate the most… is the only one who truly sees you.

Being the first born of her parent’s Lilith never got that attention and love from her parents because they wanted boy and not a girl, and hence she was not respected in her school as well, despite being the Alpha blood, but it gets worse for her when at the age of sixteen her wolf appears but she couldn’t shift. Member of her pack assumed that she is a weak wolf and an insult for the pack, hence bullying starts for her because her own parents felt disgust from her. She did not lose the hope and waited impatiently for her mate, until one day the Alpha of Creek Star pack was invited to the dinner by her father and she found out that none other than Caleb Donovan is her mate but her heart breaks down when she finds out why he accepted her as his mate.

"Shift," I said again. "Before I break you. Last warning."
Long red hair spilled across the dirty floor. Soft, smooth, feminine skin replaced the fur. A delicate neck. And as her chest rose with a shaky breath, I froze.
Rounded curves. A woman's body.
"You're… you're a female," I said, my voice raspy, almost broken.
"Let go of me, you monster," she spat and even dared to spit on my face.
The sound that came from my throat was a dangerous growl.
"No," I said.
"You're a female," I whispered again, obsession rising inside me so fast it scared even me. "And you're mine. You're mine."
Rachael believed she was the last female werewolf alive in a kingdom where women had vanished—hunted to extinction, erased into myth. To survive, she stayed hidden in her wolf form, living deep within the woods.
Until one mistake led her straight into the territory of the most feared Alpha alive.
Eryx, the ruthless Alpha King with cursed blood and unmatched power, thought she was a trespassing male. One forced shift shattered that illusion.
She was female. And she was his.
Desired by all. Hunted by many. Trapped in the hands of a man who ruled through blood and fear. Packs across the land would do anything to claim her—to breed her, to break her.
And Eryx would slaughter anyone who tried.
Because she isn't just the last woman.
She is the spark that could draw other females out of hiding—and set the entire kingdom on fire.

Sapphire.

I despise him, truly despise him. Yet, there was a time, in what feels like another era, when I loved him so intensely that life without him seemed unimaginable. He was my oxygen; I craved him. I believed I would wither away without him.

Why wouldn't I? He swore eternal love, comparing it to the enduring stones of the pyramids. Massive, resilient, standing for centuries against rain, shine, or sandstorms. I constructed my dreams on those stones, envisioning children playing and a Christmas table surrounded by laughing grandchildren.

But he lied.

In one cruel move, he betrayed me, shattering my beautiful dreams into a million pieces. Now, the spiteful man has returned with an indecent proposal. I won't accept it. Never, even if my body yearns for his lips, mouth, hands, skin...

No, Zade.

You might be the most attractive man I've ever seen, but I won't give you a second chance to destroy me.

“You are a pet that I must tame,” he said, slightly stammering. It was clear he was trying to use Earth’s human language.

The Ravis race was indeed highly intelligent; with their abilities, they could quickly learn human languages and mimic human behaviors.

“Let me go! I’m not an animal! I’m not your pet!” screamed Belinda. “You strange creature!”

“What does ‘strange creature’ mean?” the Ravis asked.

“You are the strange creature. Red-eyed vampire freak!” snapped Belinda.

The Ravis stared at Belinda with a confused expression. “I don’t understand what you’re saying,” he replied.

“Go to hell!” Belinda yelled angrily. “Let me go!”

“I won’t let you go. You’re my pet,” he said in a flat tone.

“You think I’m your cat, you weirdo?” Belinda shouted.

The ruthless Ravis invade from other galaxies and occupy the earth to take away its resources. Water. The Ravis need the Earth because it has the largest water source in the entire galaxy. They want to control the earth completely.

Will Belinda become a meal for Luca Miller? And what about her fate?

Cassian, the beast who craves dominance.
Lucien, the charmer who plays with fire.
Darius, the cold strategist who sees through every lie.

Three kings. One queen. And a war that will decide who devours whom first.

"Camilla, I promised you that you would pay, didn't I?" My father came out from behind the wardrobe,
I had gone to that wardrobe, and selected my outfit, how didn't I see him in there?
How did he get into my hotel room?

A/N: This is a slow burn strong female lead story, please read with patience. Many thanks to all of my lovely readers!

I spent ten years loving my fiancé, only to overhear him planning to drug me and let his driver ruin my innocence—so I wore my wedding dress and married his billionaire mafia uncle instead.

I was supposed to be the happiest bride in Goldville. But behind a slightly open door, I heard Jason, the man I had worshipped, laughing with my pregnant half-sister. He called my ten years of devotion "cheap" and planned to broadcast my drugged rape to the entire world. He wanted to destroy me so he could justify marrying his mistress.

But he forgot one thing: I am a Banks, and we don't cry—we destroy.

I didn't shed a single tear. I played along, took the drugged water, and the second his driver walked in, I smashed his jaw and knocked him out cold. I left Jason a wedding gift: a live broadcast of his precious, "innocent" bride getting railed by three older men on the venue's big screen.

While Jason's world burned to ashes, I walked down the aisle towards a different groom. Dalton Riggs. The youngest mafia Don, the most dangerous billionaire in the country, and Jason's untouchable uncle.

When Dalton slipped the billion-dollar diamond onto my finger, his stormy eyes darkened with a dangerous possessiveness. "In my world, there is no divorce. We live, we stay, we die together," he whispered.

Jason thought he broke me. But how will he react when he realizes the woman he tried to destroy is now the untouchable Mrs. Riggs—his aunt?

Framed for murder and exiled, I’m left alone in the wilderness, chained to a tree. But Jorin, my older mentor, finds me and helps me survive. Still, I’m done just surviving. I want revenge.

When Bram, my best friend, tracks me down, everything changes. The heat between us is undeniable, a simmering tension we’ve always ignored but can’t deny any longer. As we hunt down Alpha Kaelen, the fire between us blazes hotter with every passing second.

I’ll get back what’s mine. I’ll tear down anyone who stands in my way. And if Bram wants to follow me into the flames, he’d better be ready to burn as hot as I do.

Haunted by fragments of a past she can’t grasp, Zara soon realizes her amnesia isn’t an accident—it’s a curse. The deeper she’s pulled into the world of shapeshifters, blood oaths, and pack wars, the more she uncovers a tangled truth: she may hold the key to a forgotten prophecy that could either save or doom them all.

But trust is dangerous. Secrets twist tighter. And Damon isn’t the only one watching her.

In a story where fate and free will collide, Echoes of the Forgotten Pack weaves dark romance with supernatural suspense. It’s a world where loyalty can kill, love can curse, and the past never stays buried. Zara must choose between reclaiming who she was—or becoming someone entirely new.

Hellen Hayes never sought power, nor did she dream of the heavy crown that came with being Luna. Yet fate bound her to Alpha Matt Blackthorn, the ruthless and magnetic leader of a pack divided by secrets, ambition, and hidden scars.

Thrust into a role she never asked for, Hellen must navigate a world where loyalty is tested, every alliance is fragile, and enemies lurk within the very walls meant to protect her. When whispers of betrayal spread through the Bloodmoon Pack and a forbidden attraction begins to ignite flames she cannot extinguish, Hellen finds herself at a dangerous crossroads.
Will she remain the obedient Luna silent, bound by duty and chains woven by fate, or will she rise against the darkness, daring to claim her own destiny, even if it means defying the Alpha who both owns her heart and holds her prisoner?

"I know what you are," Scar said, blade still drawn. "The last vessel said that too. Before the end."

Long Chen had survived the Great Merge on one rule: extract, trust no one, keep moving. Then the Dragon Vein Hunter System activated inside him and broke every part of that.

I thought I was only visiting my estranged father. Instead, a cruel scheme dragged me into Draconia, a world ruled by monsters, and left me in the infamous Feral Sector.
I couldn’t speak their language. I had no money, no protection, and no way home. After being imprisoned and abused for weeks, I was thrown into the streets in chains.
Then he appeared.
The moment the black-haired man stepped onto the balcony, the monsters fell silent. His ice-blue eyes and terrifying power made even the predators fear him.
He looked dangerous.
But he was my only hope.
I grabbed his ankle and begged, “My lord, please take me away from here. I'll do anything for you, as long as you can send me home.”
He walked away.
But moments later, his terrifying subordinate returned and took me with him.
I thought I had finally found someone who could save me.
I was wrong.
After ordering me to bathe, the dangerous man gave me his first condition:
“And after you wash, you'll come to bed and have sex with me.”
I thought one night with him would be enough to earn my freedom.
Instead, he locked me away and claimed me as his own.
Now I have only one question:
Will he ever let me go?

In a world where AI controls every aspect of human life, there is no government, no law, and no economy. There is no manual labor because robots handle everything, and there is absolutely no empathy because AI is the government. To survive, you must use your brains.

But if you don't have brains, you better have brawn, because almost every available job is an AI-supervised office role that demands a high level of intelligence.

There are only two paths for those who rely on brawn: become a gladiator for public spectacle and entertainment, or become a slave whose job is to "entertain" the public with all their strength and body.

This is the dark story of a young man fighting to free his half-sister from debt-driven slavery. He fights in the colosseum as a gladiator while still attending school to hone his "brain," using the extraordinary power of the Grey Tower as its chosen Monarch.

“I never asked for this," I whisper, my voice trembling with a mix of fear and something deeper I can't quite name.

"If your twin wasn't in your world, maybe she's inside our world," said Thiltran.

Adhara eyes widened. "Absolutely! That's what I am thinking! You can help me, right?"

Thiltran nodded in response. "In one condition."

"Anything! I can do everything you want!"

The wolf with emerald eyes grinned and said, "Use your body to satisfy me."

To honor a vow to "protect her for a lifetime," I used my flesh and blood to shield her from a fatal impact in a deadly car crash. My heart was severely shattered, leaving me barely clinging to life with a pacemaker.

Concealing my identity for five years, I single-handedly dragged her from bankruptcy and crowned her the new royalty of Wall Street.

Yet, on the eve of her IPO, just to curry favor with a powerful tycoon, she knocked away my life-saving medicine, forced me to kneel and shine shoes in public, and finally kicked my gravely ill body out into a sub-zero Brooklyn blizzard.

My dying pleas for help only earned her impatient mockery: "Save your playing dead tricks for the ghosts."

When my pacemaker completely shattered in the howling snow, that submissive Arthur died.

Armed gunships descended, and a military-grade tactical heart violently rebooted my pulse! When I opened my eyes again, I was the Supreme Commander who cast terror over the global underground.

When I crushed her capital empire with a single hand and the truth was finally revealed, she knelt in the muddy rain, frantically slapping her own face, sobbing and screaming to give her life back to me.

I flicked the ash from my cigar, my gaze as cold as looking at trash: "My wife died in the blizzard. You are just a stranger who crawled up by stepping on half my life."

Excerpt

"I own you, Reyana. You are mine... Mine to torture... Mine to claim... Mine to punish... and nothing will ever save you from me. Not even death!" His words were heavy and true. He meant every word he said.


Bound by an oath, the Blood Crescent pack has kept a prophecy hidden for over 300 years.

Alpha Randall, the most ruthless Alpha of his time was a god among men, rich in power, strength, wealth, achievements... No one comes close. He was the envy of all.

Wherever he went, he left a trail of death and darkness, and no one ever prayed to be mated to such a monster, but fate had a different plan for him.

His world began crumbling when he was mated to Reyana, his Beta's girlfriend, whom he hated with passion.

Reyana was doomed when Alpha Randall refused to claim her, neither was he willing to reject her, not only because he had a mistress, Visha, whom he loved so much... He had other reasons.

Torn between two women, the secret of the prophecy was on the verge of crumbling as, unknown to Randall, one of these women was meant to be his downfall, while the other was the key to unlocking the prophecy.

What happens when Randall's biggest nightmare is unlocked and the Dark-eyed monster whom he thought he killed years ago resurfaces, threatening his very existence?

Let's find out in this heart-racing piece filled with suspense, Steamy romance, and betrayal.

Brace yourselves. This will be one of the most twisted, mind-blowing stories you'll ever come across.

（There is a lot of sexual and stimulating content， minors are not allowed to read!!!）
Victoria was raised in the mountains where she was abandoned. After her father's accidental death, her mother remarried a wealthy man.
Upon being brought to the city, she discovered that her mother wasn't heartless, but had given all her love to her favored stepdaughter.
Victoria was then married off to the unconscious Edward. Who would have thought that on her wedding night, she would have her pants taken off by her 'vegetative' husband Edward?
Help! If only she had known, she wouldn't have treated Edward. After he recovered, she realized that her husband possessed not only wealth but also a lot of energetic sperm!
Pregnant Victoria, sought after by top doctors, became a prominent figure. Those who had bullied her were in tears. Even the proud Edward was flustered.
This outstanding Victoria was his discovery, so why were people coming forward to claim kinship? Oh well, his wife was too formidable. Whether he was the richest man or not didn't matter; he didn't mind becoming a son-in-law.
Victoria wanted to refuse. She wanted to return to her rightful life and walk the path of a wealthy heiress, with this young and handsome man... No, no! Her back was sore! Edward at home was insatiable!

I know what you are thinking!?
That this is a beautiful Lycan Love story. I am exactly not in the right mood to tell you how absolutely wrong you are.
Beautiful? It's not a word I am sure is related to me. Love? I am not entirely sure if I can say I have ever experienced that. Lycan? I have not even been given the luck of being that. What can I even really say I am? Even I lack the right answer to this question. All I know is that right now, I am wrapped around Jacob's back as he runs through the thick forest, blood trickling down my face, his heart beating so fast like it's about to burst open, and am sure he is probably praying to the mother goddess that we do not get caught as he runs with me on his back.
Me?
I am Number 28. No. That is not the name my mother gave me, it is my identity in the pack I come from. I am a Doulos, meaning Slave. No, I am not a slave actually, I am a slave of slaves. Slaves are permitted to keep their birth names, but Doulos, we are identified by numbers, worst than slaves, servants to slaves. We are the lowest rank of shame in the pack, and I, I am one of them, No. 28.
I may have been free once, a noble perhaps, but that may have happened while I was in my mother's womb, and my father was still alive. But everything changed the day I was born. I was told my father died in battle the day I was born while disobeying the Alpha and leading a thousand plus of the packs finest soldiers to death.
My birth name is Ianna Evar, and this is my story beginning from two weeks ago!

For twenty-seven years, Kael Draven bled for the Empire, conquered its enemies, and became the legendary Black Shogun feared across the continent. On the day of his greatest victory, the Emperor he served, the friend he trusted, and the priests he protected repaid him with betrayal and a public execution.
Instead of dying, Kael awakens thirty-five years in the past as a powerless orphan in a forgotten village at the dawn of the Demon Sengoku Era.
Armed with memories of future wars, hidden treasures, legendary heroes, and the apocalypse that will one day destroy humanity, Kael refuses to repeat his fate. He will claim every opportunity before his enemies, build his own kingdom from nothing, and crush those who once stood over his corpse.
But as history begins to change, Kael discovers a terrifying truth: he is not the only one who remembers the future, and someone else is secretly rewriting destiny from the shadows.
In an age of warlords, demons, ancient gods, and endless conquest, can Kael save the world before it falls, or will his second life lead to an even greater catastrophe?

Do you remember the story of Rapunzel, the long golden-haired girl trapped in a tower.

And do you remember the witch that took her, because of a feud from both siblings. The woman no one knew the tower was originally built for.

What you don't know was that that witch was once a Queen. And across the kingdoms of Arrandelle and Seatopia, jealousy does more than poison hearts between two sisters, it created curses.

When Princess Athalia, driven by envy and desperate longing, forges a forbidden pact to gain beauty and influence, she unknowingly ignites a chain of events that twists love into obsession and ambition into ruin.

The sorcerer’s bargain demands an impossible pact, else she will face destruction. But how long will the result of Athalia’s ambition and jealousy grow?

This is the untold origin of the witch and Rapunzel's parents, reimagined into a darker tale where every spell demands a sacrifice and every fairy tale begins with a sin.

Agatha Gonzales grew up seeking the love and care of a father because even though she had never experienced that with her father, the only thing she always saw was her mother’s suffering at its hands.

Ethan Hernandez comes from a wealthy family and he is an heir. He lives like a prince and is full of his father's love but is no longer with his mother because she has died. He gets everything in life.
In an unexpected turn of events, the paths of the two meet.
Is there hope for the two of them?
What is Agatha willing to do just to be forgiven by the man she loves?
Will they have a happy ending or a tragic one?

After dying in a meaningless accident, 28-year-old Korean ex-soldier and amateur chef Seo Jun-Ho is transmigrated into a brutal, merged world where Earth has been fused with an ancient tower system. Humanity is forced to climb endless mysterious Towers that appeared during the Great Collapse.
The world runs on "Essence", a system that rewards strength, crafting, taming, and conquest. Most people struggle just to survive the first 10 floors. Seo Jun-Ho discovers he has a unique "Primordial Palate" trait that lets him cook monsters and magical ingredients into dishes that grant permanent stat boosts, skills, and evolution paths. Combined with his military background and a rare Beast Sovereign class, he begins building something far greater than just personal power.
As floors grow deadlier and ancient secrets awaken, Seo Jun-Ho will cook, tame, conquer, and rise until even the gods of the system tremble before the Beast Sovereign.

I was nothing. A magicless girl in a world where power decides your worth. The Storm Kingdom treated me like I didn’t exist, like I was a mistake.

Then came a letter I never sent, a summons I never expected, and everything changed. They called it the Obsidian Spire Academy, a place to train in the chaos of magic, but I had no magic or so I thought.

And then came Kael. A Flame wielder feared across all kingdoms, the boy who stared at me like I held the answers to questions I didn’t even understand. He saved me, but his eyes warned me that danger followed, and that the world I knew was about to crumble.

I’ve learned the truth the hard way: my blood carries power older than the kingdoms themselves. Power that can either destroy everything or rebuild it. Now, hunted by those who want me as a weapon, I must fight, learn, and control the chaos within me or risk losing everything I care about, including Kael, who refuses to leave my side.

In a world where magic and Dragons are real, where magic is taught at a school's and kingdom's rule over the land. Why are dragons so scarce and why is magic not so widely used if it's available for everyone to learn and use. History is told by the victor and that often leads to a miss telling in the tale, leaving those who read it to miss out of the true story. But when Young Nova discovers her past and goes on quest to discover her true self, she will meet friend's she will come to hold as family and they will discover the truth behind magic. As everything comes to light, and the truth comes to light, their resolve will be tested.

The gods' realms have fallen into war, and the mortal world, while unaware, is feeling the effects. Whispers of a plague that turns people into monsters ripple to every end of the earth, but no one can stop the sickness.

The Gold Moon Pack has thrived in chaos before, but the long respected alpha has only just handed the reins to his son, Henry. It’s the ultimate test for a new Alpha, and his Luna, Dorothy. If he fails, he’ll be one of many that could not save his people during the mass extinction of the mortal world. If he succeeds, history will paint him on banners until the end of time.

But the path out of darkness is overgrown with deceit, violence, and tragedy.

Choices are made.

Family bonds break.

Peace never lasts.

AUTHOR’S NOTE:

RISE OF THE ALPHA KING is an episodic style continuation of The Green Witch Trilogy/Dragon Keep Me/and The Toad Prince storylines. This story will see the events of Ceres’ trilogy: Loved by Fate, Kissed by Sun, and Touched by Chaos, played out from the Point of Views of our mortal world characters.

For the most part, I will be writing from the viewpoints of:

Henry

Dot

Jillian

Odin

and Gideon.

BUT, it could be anyone from the original books.

As with much of my writing, just be aware I write realistic stories. If it’s violence, it's violent. If it’s sexual assault, it’s traumatizing. I want to evoke strong emotion. I want you to laugh and cry and cheer for my characters like they’re your friends. So yes, TRIGGER WARNINGS.

BUT, of course there are erotic scenes! There is still a lot of romance, love, and laughter, too.

This story will be updated with (3,000-5,000) words one time per week, on Wednesday, until completed.

Alpha werewolves should be cruel and merciless with unquestionable strength and authority, at least that’s what Alpha Charles Redmen believes and he doesn’t hesitate to raise his kids to be the same way.
Alpha Cole Redmen is the youngest of six born to Alpha Charles and Luna Sara Mae, leaders of the Red Fang pack. Born prematurely, Alpha Charles rejected him without hesitation as weak and undeserving of his very life. He is reminded daily of his father’s hatred for him paving the way for the rest of his family to become the same.
By adulthood, his father’s hatred and abuse towards him has spilled over into the rest of the pack making him the scapegoat for those with the sadistic need to see him suffer. The rest are simply too afraid to even look his way leaving him little in the way of friends or family to turn to.
Alpha Demetri Black is the leader of a sanctuary pack known as Crimson Dawn. It’s been years since a wolf has made their way to his pack via the warrior’s prospect program but that doesn’t mean he’s not looking for the tell tale signs of a wolf in need of help.
Malnourished and injured upon his arrival, Cole’s anxious and overly submissive demeanor lands him in the very situation he’s desperate to avoid, in the attention of an unknown alpha.
Yet somehow through the darkness of severe illness and injury he runs into the very person he’s been desperate to find since he turned eighteen, his Luna. His one way ticket out of the hell he’s been born into.
Will Cole find the courage needed to leave his pack once and for all, to seek the love and acceptance he’s never had?

After treacherous attacks from the Red Dragons, the Golden Dragons were almost eliminated from the face of the Earth, with only a few of them surviving and having to face decades of war against their persistent enemies.
In the middle of the conflict a new hope was found, one more surviving member of the Golden breed, Kemely. Except there was nothing they could do to take her from her current state of unconsciousness.
Under the sun of her new home in Marbella, Kemy’s future was unclear as the only reality she knew were her dreams, and her years of slumber.


On the other side of the world, in the cold Alaska, Henry was very sure about his future.
He is a werewolf, who is supposed to take the Beta’s daughter as his chosen mate and succeed his father as the alpha of the Boreal Keepers Pack, one of the most ruthless packs in the continent. The Boreal Keepers Pack only knows power, how to crush their enemies, greed, and tradition. There is something they and their alpha hate more than weakness; they hate dragons with passion.

Henry changed his ways when he heard a call to his soul, a call from his long-sleeping mate. He didn’t know who she was, or where she was, he only knew that he had to find her. However, he never expected his mate to be Kemely, a dragon.
Will Henry leave his pack and his destiny, to help bring his dragon mate back from her coma or will he follow his father’s orders and wishes and his Pack ways?
What will happen when, challenging the old feud between Dragons and Werewolves, destiny intertwines the ways of the Alpha’s son and his sleeping Dragon mate?
