For three years, I hid my scent from the Alpha who let my family be slaughtered, until he showed up at my door, bleeding and claiming I was his mate.

I changed my name to Lila. I worked double shifts at a diner. I buried my wolf so deep I thought she was dead. But tonight, Kieran, the Alpha of Shadow Moon, stood in my alley. “You’re my mate, Lila. And I’m not walking away without you.”

I laughed bitterly. “You think I’d follow an alpha? After your pack let my family die?”

Before he could answer, a giant black rogue wolf smashed through my door, jaws snapping for my throat. Kieran didn’t hesitate. He shifted mid-air, taking a brutal slash to his flank that sprayed hot blood across my face. They rolled on the floor, claws tearing flesh, bones snapping.

Seeing him bleed for me broke the lock on my soul. My wolf tore free. Bones cracked, skin burned, and I shifted for the first time in years, sinking my teeth into the rogue’s arm.

We killed them, but Kieran was dying, his chest heaving, his human form naked and shredded on my floor. I crawled to him, my own naked body trembling.

“You are bleeding,” I whispered, hating how much my chest ached for him.
“So are you,” he rasped, his bloody fingers gently touching my ribs.

We thought the fight was over. But then the pack Enforcers arrived, swords drawn, demanding the Alpha hand me over to be executed.

She saved his life.
He ruined hers.

Now he’s Roonie’s most famous biker and playboy
And also her housemate

Living under one roof with him becomes a job, constantly annoying each other, proving who hates who more and also trying not to fall in love.

But ignoring the way he looked at her? Impossible.

What is fate? Waking up three days after you rejected your fated mates in front of the entire school, with the memories of your husband's betrayal still burning in your chest? Or finding out that the only way to save your empire is to compete for love on national television—against the man who murdered you?

Make your pick.

Odessa Montgomery died at thirty—cheated on, poisoned, and blown to pieces by the husband she trusted. Then she opened her eyes at twenty-one, three days after the mating gala where she publicly rejected the De Luca triplets. The rejection is still fresh. The whole school is still talking. And Damien Gracias, her charming hockey-star boyfriend, has no idea she remembers every lie he ever told her.

She dumps him. Publicly. Brutally. But freedom comes at a cost. Her grandfather's will is clear: find a mate or lose the Montgomery empire. With Damien out and the De Luca triplets—her humiliated fated mates—lurking in her past, her options are nothing.

Then comes Moonlit Bonds, a televised competition where unmated shifters compete for love and a life-changing prize. Win, and her inheritance is hers. Lose, and lose everything.

There's just one problem. Damien and his true mate, Sarah, have joined the show, hoping to legitimize their bond on camera. And the De Luca triplets are also contestants—three alphas she rejected, two who bullied her, and one who has never stopped watching.

Now Odessa is trapped in a villa with cameras in every corner, a public audience that votes on her fate, and enemies who want her dead.

She came to win.

She might just find revenge.

But falling for the enemy? That was never part of the plan.

So it turned out he did know how to be romantic—just not with me.
My husband couldn't care less about how I felt. This marriage was already hollow, existing in name only.
That day, I finally made up my mind...

“I doubt that,” I slurred, drunk and reckless, right before a stranger dragged me into a dark room and changed my life forever.

One night. That was all it took. I woke up with a pounding headache, a bite mark on my neck, and the Alpha’s shirt on the floor. I ran away before he woke up, thinking I’d never see him again.

I was wrong.

"This is your new boss, Alpha Warren," the manager announced.

I froze. The man walking into the office, radiating power and dominance, was him. The stranger who owned my body for hours. The man who marked me.

But he looked right through me. To him, I was just Diana, the new personal assistant. He didn't recognize me.

"You're clumsy," he growled when I spilled coffee on his expensive suit, grabbing my waist to steady me. His touch burned through my clothes, igniting the memory of his skin against mine.

"I'm sorry, Alpha," I whispered, trembling.

He leaned in, sniffing my neck, his blue eyes darkening. "You smell... familiar."

'' But we can't just leave like that. '' I continued.

''We can and we will. We promised to take care of you and we will even if you are standing in the way.'' Jonathan said pulling me out.

'' But we can't just leave. Everyone here has been kind to us. We can't just abandon them when they need us." I continued

''Find her and when you do bring her to me. I'm going to end her.'' she promised.

This was the voice of the person that was hard bent on killing me. She haunted me not only physically but in my dreams too.

''We have to go now.'' Sam said with an urgent tone and this time I dared not utter a word.

We were currently at the secret passage filled with endless stairs and it was really dark and creepy. They were both holding a torch so we had a sense of direction and vision. We walked fast and when we reached outside the tunnel we saw three horses stationed outside. We got on it hastily and rode quickly even though we had no idea where we were headed to. We weren't safe anywhere. The only place I thought I was safe in she managed to get me there too. It has been like this for two years now. Her chasing me to kill me and me running for my dear life.

And what happens when Damon discovers the ultimate betrayal—that she’s the mother of the son he never knew?

After Grandpa passed away, he left two inheritances behind.
One was an underground shelter costing over a hundred million yuan.
The other was a crumbling old house on the brink of collapse in the village.
My younger sister Su Rou rushed to pick the underground shelter first, so I settled for the old house.
No one expected an extreme cold apocalypse to descend just days later.
Su Rou moved into the shelter with her boyfriend.
But her boyfriend leaked the gate password, attracting a mob of thugs.
Su Rou was reduced to their plaything, trapped in a fate worse than death.
As for me, I discovered the old house’s cellar connected to a natural underground hot spring. I managed to survive by sheer luck.
When Su Rou heard the news, she was consumed by envy. She led the thugs straight to me, forcing me to take her place.
"Sister, you’ve always been the nicest to me since we were kids. You’ll save me, right? You take my place and serve them instead."
I could no longer endure the humiliation. I set fire to the place and died alongside them all.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the very moment we chose the inheritances.

I bowed my head to hide all my emotions, then silently chose the underground shelter.
My dear sister… that drafty, ramshackle old house is nowhere near as wonderful as you think it is.
