One Last Bite Made Me the Vampire's Only Mate

One Last Bite Made Me the Vampire's Only Mate

666 Views · Ongoing · Piper Hayes
The best deal I ever made in my life was selling my blood to a vampire.

I was a broke, permanently starving werewolf who needed ten times the food a normal person did just to feel full.

Evan was a vampire heir with a blood allergy, the kind where the smell alone made him sick and dizzy. Somehow his life was worse than mine.

Except my blood didn't trigger it. He never reacted to me.

So he pulled out his card. "I'll keep you fed. You let me feed off you."

This wasn't a vampire. This was a walking meal ticket.

For the next three years, he was the perfect meal buddy. Five meals a day, and he never once complained. Once I finished and let out a satisfied burp, it was his turn, just a small sip, nothing more.

Then, the year we graduated, he got a call from his family. He had to fly back to Europe that same night.

Before he left, I figured I'd thank him for three years of generosity. I pulled my collar aside.

"Go ahead, take more this time. Consider it a going-away present."

He hesitated, then leaned in.

But this time, once his teeth were in, he couldn't stop.

By the time he pulled back, horrified at himself, I already had a hand pressed to my neck, and everything went dark.

“NO!” I screamed in fear.

"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.

"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...

Being a female Alpha is rare, especially in a world that still doubts women in power. Every move I make is judged. Any sign of weakness would be used against me.
Love is not just love for someone like me. It is a sign of weakness.
Taking an Alpha consort feels like risking the pack my grandfather handed to me. He ruled without a mate. If he could do it without a mate, so can I.

So when fate bound me to Leo Leonidas Blackwood, my childhood friend, the one I once loved without fear, I rejected him without delay.

I chose my throne over the bond. But a mate bond does not disappear because an Alpha says no. It lingers. It pulls.

Now everyone is watching. The elders want me to have a mate. The pack wants stability. But no one asks what I want. Because loving him once broke me and choosing him again might destroy us both.

On the day I was supposed to get married....
I watched my fiancé, Rafael, kissing another woman on his office.
Not a stranger.
My best friend.
Right then, I knew I’d only ever been the safe option, not the one he really wanted.
I left the dress, the ring, and my family’s reputation to burn in every group chat and gossip thread.
All I took with me was a small suitcase, a silent phone, and one secret I hadn’t fully understood yet: there was a baby growing inside me.
Rafael’s baby.
Six years later, I’d built a new life in Los Angeles. By day, I designed buildings for an architecture firm, drawing sharp lines to hold back the cracks I didn’t show anyone. By night, I painted until color stained my fingers and the floor.
In my calm house by the sea, a little girl with hazel eyes called me “Mom” and sprinted between piles of rolled-up blueprints.
In this new version of my life, there was Luca.
The man who always showed up with coffee, mocked my playlist, and told me, “With me, you don’t have to act tough.”
I thought I’d finally found calm.
Until that gala night.
The voice I used to almost promise forever stopped right behind me. “Long time no see, Maya.”
When Rafael’s eyes landed on my daughter’s matching hazel gaze, the air in the room grew heavy.
He wanted answers.
I wanted the nearest exit.
And before the night was over, one sentence from him tore through everything I’d carefully rebuilt:
“You need to meet my brother. His name’s Luca.”
My lungs forgot how to work.
I stared at the man I’d been calling my boyfriend… and wondered if my life had just fallen apart all over again....
