After returning from abroad for only a few hours, “Kacha,” an ordinary beta, somehow ends up being mistaken for a stalker fan (a sasaeng) by none other than “Ramil,” a top-tier Omega and famous model.

As luck would have it, they’re thrown together again, but this time as photographer and model on the same project.

At first, Ramil seemed dead set on giving Kacha a hard time.
Nitpicking everything.
Constantly picking fights.
Even going as far as to say…

“Someone so ordinary.”

It left Kacha convinced that Ramil must hate him.

Until one day...

“I've been wooing you, Cha.”
“Didn’t you notice?”

Wait… WHAT?!
Where did that come from?!

When Aunt Luna let the AC repairman in, I was five, fast asleep in my bedroom.
By the time I woke up, the police were already bagging evidence. Aunt Luna was wrapped in a blanket, bruised and broken, staring blankly at the wall.
She never smiled again. Instead, she collected scars on her arms.
Her ex-husband Ethan dropped everything to hold her, promising it wasn't her fault. But the PTSD won. Two years later, she swallowed a lethal dose of pills. Ethan followed her in death the very same night.
Every year, my mom would take me to their graves, crying as she whispered: If only I hadn't let your aunt call that repairman.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back in the summer I was five!
Aunt Luna walked out of the kitchen with her phone, fanning herself.
"Stella, I called a guy to fix the AC. Be a good girl and go take your nap."
The next second, the front doorbell rang.
"Hello! HandyPro AC repair."
My blood ran ice-cold!
I recognized that voice—Jake Dalton.
The rapist who destroyed both our families in my past life!

I accompanied my husband, Kieran, down to the Antarctic station’s underground quarantine zone to rescue an ice-bacteria sample at negative forty degrees. Halfway there, he asked me to fetch some data. I was gone for exactly three minutes. When I came back, he had vanished.
The institute staff told me I had gone insane, wandering the halls searching for a husband who had been dead for three years.
They called Kieran’s mentor, Dr. Reiner. Through the phone, the old man wept, swearing that Kieran had fallen into the deepest ice rift in Antarctica three years ago. Not even his bones were recovered.
Branded a lunatic, I was thrown into a sealed bio-containment pod twenty miles away. I became a human guinea pig. Under endless rounds of experimental drugs, my organs failed one by one until I died on that cold metal table.
Then, I blinked. Kieran was standing right in front of me, rushing me to the lab...

Since marrying into the Sterling family, I've been pregnant three times. Not one of them survived.

Every time the DNA test report arrived, my mother-in-law would drag me to the clinic for an abortion.

They said the fetus had genetic defects. But I secretly went to an outside hospital for tests, and the report clearly stated everything was normal.

After my third miscarriage, I followed my in-laws to the basement I was forbidden to enter.

I held my breath and pressed my eye to the crack in the door.

In that moment, I finally knew why they had to kill my babies.

Growing up, my parents and brother favored only me, treating my sister Della like a burden. They locked her in the basement and fled overnight with me to Aldermere.
Twenty years later, for the sake of my upcoming wedding, they brought me back to that old house to erase the last traces of her existence.
But none of us expected that Della wasn't dead. Decades had passed, yet she still looked exactly as she did back then. She even followed us to our new home—and right now, she’s sitting quietly on our living room sofa, slowly turning her head to smile at us...

His dream was to open a club in the heart of Denver and be his own boss, business owner. In order to do that, he needed his father's help and money. But when Molly is literally kneeling in front of him, looking up at him with those sexy, defiant eyes, he would forget his plans every time.

Molly is determined to not let Scott ruin another fun and exciting adventure. Until she realizes that Scott is exactly the person she needs to show her this new lifestyle that she has found.
Scott just wanted to keep her safe until he could find someone to take care of her. If there was someone that lived up to his standards, that is.

On my eighteenth birthday, I didn't get a cake. I got a slap from my mother and my MIT acceptance letter crushed under her heel.

In their eyes, I wasn't a daughter—I was a walking blood bank, a spare part for my cousin Jennifer.

They took my blood, made me take the blame, even sent me to prison in her place.

In that car accident, my mother saved my cousin without hesitation and left me to bleed out in the wreckage.

"Save Jennifer first! That wretch is too stubborn to die!"

That's when I gave up on them.

But what truly broke me wasn't being sent to a mental hospital—it was the diary I found hidden in my mother's safe.

"Strip her naked and throw her in a dog cage."
When Vincent Sterling gave the order, Serena clutched her stomach in despair: "I'm carrying your baby!"
Vincent just lit a cigarette, watching coldly as the bodyguard’s boot slammed into her belly. "Get rid of it. I don't want anything filthy."
That night, to avenge his childhood sweetheart, Vincent personally killed his own flesh and blood, trampling his wife—whom he had loved for ten years—into the mud.
Later, the truth came to light.
The so-called "infidelity videos" are AI-generated, and the manipulative woman's pain is self-perpetuated.
Seeing the signed divorce agreement and the blood-stained ring, the arrogant Vincent went completely mad.
He knelt in the pouring rain for three days and nights, begging her to come back.
This time, Serena sat in her wheelchair, gazing down at him with an icy, detached gaze.
"Vincent, I don't hate you, but I hate you for being filthy."

On her birthday, Chloe’s world falls apart when her boyfriend abandons her. Seeking comfort, she makes the worst mistake of her life—or maybe the best one. In a moment of weakness, she ends up in the arms of Ruan, her half-sister Megan’s rejected fiancé.

That single night changes everything. When Megan disappears and Chloe’s family turns against her, she is forced into an unthinkable role: the substitute bride. Trapped in a loveless marriage, she faces a ruthless father, a cruel stepmother, and a husband who belongs to someone else.

Two years later, after her father’s death and Megan’s shocking return, the fragile balance shatters. Ruan, torn between the past and the present, demands a divorce. But as the papers are drawn, he realizes something he never expected—Chloe has taken root in his heart in ways he cannot deny.

Now, he must face the one question that could rewrite their fate:
What if the love he spent years searching for has always been with the woman he swore he would never love?

The peaceful and tranquil town of Bermington has recently experienced a horrific murder case. Charles Jones, a full-time writer, allegedly broke into the home of Lawrence, an engineer, and brutally killed the family of three.
Police immediately arrested him, but after several interrogations, officers learned a shocking secret: the real killer wasn't him, but rather some kind of entity that shared his exact appearance, build, and even his name and DNA...

I longed for family affection and true love all my life. I tried my best to get along with my stepbrother Karen, and wholeheartedly loved his friend Nolan. However, my sincerity was trampled into the mud. They conspired to hurt me, spread indecent content to ruin my life, and even broke the last relic left by my grandmother. I suffered countless humiliations and injuries, then chose to leave without saying goodbye. Years later, the two men were trapped in endless regret, but I had already walked out of the shadow of the past. Trust is gone, and so is my tenderness for them.

Isabel has everything—beauty, success, the perfect relationship. So why does she feel so empty? When she discovers the mystical dream realm, she finds what she’s been craving: Alexander. He’s everything her perfect life isn’t—wild, passionate, impossible. Twin flames colliding in a world where every forbidden fantasy becomes reality. And she’s done pretending to be satisfied.

For three years, I paid so my sister could rebuild her life — her rent, her lawyers, her hospital bills, the shop she now runs in my name. Lucas, my fiance, always told me it was the right thing to do. I believed him, because believing him was easier than admitting how tired I was. I flew home two days early to surprise him. Instead, I opened my own front door and found my sister in his lap, wearing my robe, laughing in a voice I'd paid to keep happy for years. Ninety-nine empty perfume bottles stood along the wall — quiet witnesses to nights I never knew existed. Lucas didn't apologize. He asked me to be more understanding. My sister cried and called me cruel. I stood in the apartment I bought, surrounded by the people I built a home for, and realized I had never once been the one who got to be loved first.

While I was busy looking for a way to save our son's life, Liam, My husband was busy having dinner with his childhood lover, Anna.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Wright, but we can no longer continue with the treatment procedures." Those were the last words the doctor had said before unplugging the life support from my child.

I had lost my child due to my husband's unavailability and I promise to avenge his death.

Rika is reborn as Ulrika Vincent and realizes that she's got a scumbag of a Prince to cut out of her new life.

Rohan knight – he has brunette hair, piercing hazel eyes and a muscular build, he is calm and level headed in times of making decision and cares a lot about his family and friends. He is one of the main characters as Avilla's mate, Camilla's brother and ben's best friend. He has been training to become the best warrior in his pack and has worked hard to achieve that.

Camilla knight- she is a pretty brunette with long legs and a gorgeous body, she is Rohan's sister and the mate of the human boy Mitchell, she is going to fight alongside Rohan to banish the law saying werewolves cannot mate with humans.

Avilla Stevenson – her black hair is the first thing that people notices, her eyes are a sparkling grey and she has a body that tempts every one that sees her. She is the new girl that arrived and caused confusion in Rohan's life, she lives with her aunt and is extremely shy. She is an ordinary human who turns out to be something much more.

Benjamin menzel- he is Rohan's best friend who tried to steal his mate from him because he is jealous of Rohan and secretly in love with Avilla.

Mr. and Mrs. knight- Rohan and Camilla's parents

Alpha Dickson- he is the alpha of the stronghold pack, extremely strong and powerful but he is archaic in his ways to mend the law.

Mitchell Rolando- he is the human mate of Camilla, he feels a strong pull towards her but is confused on how to handle such emotions.

Stronghold pack- the second most dangerous pack in the lycans kingdom

Melissa Dorian- is the queen bitch in high school that makes life miserable for everyone, she is your typical blonde girl with blue eyes.

Kenneth Norway- he is the jock in school that gets on ben's nerves by stealing his girlfriends.

It started with Rohan finishing the yearly race in his pack and coming first, they went out for a little celebration between the three of them mainly because Camilla wanted to see her mate but Rohan appeared late making Camilla mad at him and promising to get back at him. Her chance came when she tattled to ben that Rohan hates helping him solve his girl problems, which prompted a mini fight between the two. They patched it up when Rohan explained to ben that he was always doing the opposite of whatever he tells him to do making the problem get worse and later turns round to blame him.

Ben was pretty upset because his girlfriend, Melissa was talking to another boy and according to Camilla, she was already sleeping with Kenneth during the time ben was stuck training for the race. He was close to swearing off females and waiting for his mate but he got interrupted when the most beautiful girl came into the café…

Rohan felt the attraction sizzling from across the room but he was too tranced to say anything to his friends, he was too busy ogling the girl to pay attention to what ben was babbling about, he couldn't believe he had a human as a mate but furthermore he could not believe ben called dibs on his girl, he tried so hard to fight the attraction to this human girl but he it didn't work especially when his sister Camilla was having the same problem, the law was preventing them of being with their mate.

Camilla opened up to Rohan after she saw that he was having the same problem as her because she noticed the pull between her brother and the human and she knows the only way he could fight for her was knowing that his sister was in the same dilemma. They talked on the way home to the pack and looked for ways to avoid telling their parents, the choice came down to either telling them or going for a run and they chose the latter. The went to their favorite place since they were kids and Rohan was reminded that no matter how capable Camilla is in handling herself, he was going to make sure his baby sister was happy.

Avilla has tried her best to talk to the cute boy she saw at the coffee shop the other day but he keeps blowing her off like he doesn't even notice her but his best friend the goofy one always seem to be ogling her each time she passes which was very creepy but she figured if she could get close to ben then she could slip into Rohan's life. She wanted to find more about the pull she felt for him but ben seems to be falling in love with his best friend's mate when he was aware of the mate bond. While Rohan searches for a means to be with his mate, ben on the other hand tries to sabotage the process because he wants Avilla all to himself.

Avilla tries to explain to ben that they were just friends and she has always wanted Rohan, while Rohan decides to be happy even though the law forbids it, he starts hanging out with Avilla and slowly she creeps into his heart, deep enough to make him reveal the real him. He was expecting her to be scared and run far away from him but it only seems to draw her close like she has always been part of the supernatural world. It was a relief that she was open minded about him but he still didn't tell her the truth about their love.

...

Rohan knew it was a suicide mission taking on his alpha but it was also a suicide mission to live without your mate and one out of those choices were easier, he was going to do everything within his power to fight for his mate. He treated avilla bad and would always hurt her each time they got closer.

When avilla had enough, she went on a trip and there she met a vampire who claimed her as his mate, spending time with the vampire triggered her vampire side and it became known to her that there are some secrets that she doesn't know.

She is a hybrid, her decision to choose a mate would lead to the never ending war between the wolves and vampires.

I gave my heart to Ethan Cole long before I understood what love truly was.

As my brother's best friend, Ethan was always there. He protected me, fought for me, and made me believe that maybe one day he would see me as more than a kid following him around. For years, I loved him in silence, holding on to a hope I should have let go.

Then one reckless night changed everything.

For a few stolen hours, Ethan made me believe my feelings weren't one-sided. The way he touched me, the way he looked at me, made me think I finally meant something to him. But when morning came, he shattered that illusion with four devastating words.

"You're like a sister to me."

Heartbroken and humiliated, I left town determined to forget him and never look back.

What I didn't know was that fate had something far worse waiting for me.

The mate I was bonded to became my greatest nightmare. The man who was supposed to love and protect me turned my life into a prison of pain, betrayal, and fear. When he murdered our pup, he destroyed the last piece of me that still believed happiness was possible.

Five years later, I return home carrying scars no one can see and secrets I would do anything to keep buried. I expect my brother to be waiting for me at the airport.

Instead, I come face to face with Ethan Cole.

The man who broke my heart.

The man I never truly forgot.

And the moment our eyes meet, I realize the past isn't finished with either of us.

She gave up everything for love—only to be betrayed.

“You can't have us both, Ava.”

In the heart of a place that relishes killing resides the SCV Strip club where Avalyn Monroe works for a living. Ava grew up as ordinary as any other girl but everything changed one night, and that night made way for bigger problems to come.

Welcome to Imperial city, the land where the lawless reign and godless revel. Avalyn's troubles would come in the form of not one, but two dangerous men. An Alpha, and a Godfather. These men, different in every way, have one thing in common. Avalyn. To claim her. To own her. To possess her.

But, how will this work when they aren't willing to share her?

Lana Moore wakes up from an accident that changed her life with memories that are full of holes and the name of a stranger on her lips. Adrian.
It's cold. Strong and untouchable.
And somehow connected to everything she can't remember.

Lana is taken to Paris under the pretense of safety, but she has to live next to a man whose eyes show both rage and desire.

Lana finds old letters, hidden pictures, and a kiss from the past that she can't deny anymore, and their fragile truce is broken.

Lana starts to see the truth as rumours of betrayal spread and new enemies close in:

Adrian might have loved her at one time.
He might still love her now.
But he could also be the one who wanted her to leave.

Lana has to find out the truth about the man who protects and hurts her on the glittering streets of Paris, where there are rooftop confessions, masked desires, and storms that break both the sky and the heart.

Is he the love of her life?
Or the reason her life fell apart?

Danger comes back when memory comes back.
And the truth could destroy them both.

"You're just a pathetic slave wolf. This bond means nothing!" Beta Marcus sneered as he shattered the fake mate medallion, revealing years of deception in front of the jeering pack.
As a slave wolf born into servitude, Lyra has known nothing but chains and cruelty her entire life. When she discovers what she believed was her mate bond with the pack's Beta was actually an enchanted lie designed to exploit her rare blood for dark rituals, her world crumbles completely.
Cast out to die in the cursed Shadowlands, Lyra is found by the mysterious Phantom Alpha - a legendary figure whispered about in fearful tales. Darius Nightfall is not just any Alpha; he's the exiled heir to the Celestial Court, banished for refusing an arranged marriage and seeking to overthrow corrupt pack hierarchies.
In his hidden sanctuary, Lyra discovers she's not a slave wolf at all, but the last of the StarBlood lineage - descendants of the first werewolves blessed by ancient celestial magic. Her blood doesn't just heal; it can reshape the very foundations of pack power structures.
But when her former captors come hunting for the "escaped slave" and Marcus reveals he's been working with a conspiracy to harvest StarBlood wolves for an ancient ritual, Lyra must choose: hide in safety with the Alpha who sees her true worth, or return to face those who enslaved her - not as their victim, but as their reckoning.
The weak slave they discarded will return as an empress of starlight and shadow.

She only wanted one night.

He was supposed to be a beautiful stranger she’d never see again.

But fate has other plans.

Three years ago, Emmaline Facer made a bold choice. She slept with the first man who made her heart race — and disappeared the next morning, leaving with stolen money, a stolen car, and leaving behind a man who never stopped looking for her.

Now? She’s back. Working for one of New York’s biggest fashion companies. And her new boss?

Ezra Queen — the man she abandoned.

He hasn’t forgotten her. He hasn’t forgiven her. And what neither of them knows is that their lives are about to get far more complicated.

Now, forced to work together, old sparks ignite, buried secrets rise, and a dangerous game begins — where love battles betrayal, and past mistakes threaten everything.

And a little girl who isn’t who everyone thinks she is.

In front of the entire pack, Alpha Ethan hurled the words icily: "I reject you as my mate and Luna."
Aria felt as if she’d been struck by a sledgehammer. Those poison-laced words echoed through the crowd, ripping all her dreams to jagged shreds. She clenched her fists until her nails bit into her palms, bit down on her lip until blood stung her tongue，only then did she force out, "I accept." But the wolf howling wildly in her chest screamed, "He’s our mate! How dare he?!" And she vowed, fierce and unshakable: If I ever let weakness take hold again, let my own wolf claws tear me to pieces！


By the time she fled into the forest, she was battered and bleeding, every inch of her screaming with pain. On the very edge of death, she crashed into a scorching, searing embrace...

But the brothers she finds aren't the cruel teens she remembers.

They're powerful men now — one cold and ruthless, the other charming and dangerous. And both are maddeningly drawn to the woman Nova has become.

She returns with one goal: rebuild her life and destroy the man who betrayed her.

But she never expected the Blackthorn brothers to be the ones who help her do it... or the ones she can't stop wanting.

"I'm coming to cut out my baby from your stomach myself."
They called me Rose, but they forgot one truth: every rose comes with thorns.
I trusted my husband. I loved my best friend. They repaid me by poisoning my father, stealing my inheritance, and locking me in a basement to rot—six months pregnant.
I died watching them wear my jewels and laugh at my misery.
Then fate gave me a second chance.
I woke up at my father's funeral, the taste of betrayal still fresh on my tongue.
They think I'm still the same soft, grieving heiress they can drug and manipulate. They think I'm an easy target.
They're wrong.
This time, I'm not just defending my father's legacy. I'm burning their world to the ground.
From the funeral podium to the boardroom, I'm reclaiming my power piece by piece.
But as I rewrite my destiny, my enemies are evolving. Worse, the man who should be dead isn't staying buried.
How far am I willing to go to win? And when the thorns I've grown finally draw blood—will I be the one holding the blade, or the one bleeding out?

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.

"Help! Somebody help me! Julian is trying to kill my baby!" I scream at the top of my lungs, bursting into my gender reveal party.

Just minutes ago, Julian was my perfect, doting husband. Then he opens my unborn baby's genetic screening report. The unadulterated ferocity and revulsion simmering in his eyes makes my entire body shake. He grips my arm, demanding I terminate the pregnancy.

I already died once because of that piece of paper. In my past life, they dragged me to a freezing lab, pumped me full of drugs, and murdered my child before locking me in an asylum.

This time, I hide behind the guests. But my parents storm in. After seeing the report, instead of saving me, Dad kicks me squarely in the stomach.

"You shameless little whore," he spits.

They are about to drag me out the back door when two police officers step through the glass doors. The cop hands me the confiscated report.

I look down at the printed words... and finally understand.

"Our worlds cannot be merged together; no matter how much we try, it will be useless. We just have to give up!" Elise's voice shook, though her alpha glare never wavered.
Rory stepped closer, his voice low and guttural. "You think I don't know that? I know it's impossible… I know you can't abandon your people, and I can't abandon mine."
His hand brushed her cheek, eyes blazing. "But that doesn't change the fact that I crave you. Every breath you take pulls me closer, no law or bloodline can stop it. Tell me you don't feel it too… and I'll walk away."


Every year, Elise, the fierce heir to the SilverClaw Pack, walks into the grand mate-gathering hall with hope burning in her chest—only to leave alone. Without a mate, she can never claim the Iron Throne. And this year is no different…
Until a violent storm changes everything.
Stranded on the wrong side of town, Elise crosses paths with Rory, a rough-edged, dangerously handsome rogue leader who's younger, untamed.
He's everything she shouldn't want. Rough where she's refined. A leader of outcasts, branded an enemy to her people. Forbidden.
But fate doesn't care about bloodlines or crowns. The Moon Goddess has other plans.
No law, no tradition, not even bloodlines can break the pull between them. But with packs divided and war brewing in the shadows, choosing Rory could cost Elise her throne… and spark a conflict that might destroy them both.
Torn between duty and an impossible love, Elise must decide: Will she walk away from her destiny… or risk everything for the mate the moon chose for her?

Layla's life has never really felt like her own. Torn away from by the man she truly loves, Layla must choice between duty, desire, and destiny to keep pack, and her son, safe from an evil she didn't expect—

Solomon whispered, “You are my mate, Layla Undertow. I swear this to you and to the Goddess, I will not reject you.” He looked deeply into her eyes, his long black eyelashes holding back tears.

Immediately Layla knew she had crossed a line. “I love you. I am your mate. You felt it the same way I did. There is no magic that could force it. I want you.”

But it didn’t matter anyway, for Anthony did not hear her. He instead clapped his hands and embraced Alistar. “This is good. You have my blessing.”

Alistar winked at her over her father’s shoulder. “She is the mate I have been waiting for my entire life. She is mine.”

I've been with Michael for five years, stood by him as he clawed his way up from nobody to mafia boss.

He promised me we'd get to city hall and make it official once he made it to the top, and today's supposed to be the day we finally register our marriage.

He's already postponed our registration eight times before because of his first love, Yvaine Price.

This is attempt number nine, and I'm not giving him a tenth.

I thought the worst betrayal was finding my fiancé in bed with my best friend.

I was wrong.

The worst betrayal was being drugged, bagged, and sold to the highest bidder in a supernatural slave auction.

Now I am standing on a stage in Toronto, surrounded by monsters I did not know existed, while two of the most powerful beings in the supernatural world are tearing the room apart... fighting over me.

Cassian Vale—the ancient Vampire Lord with blood-red eyes and a frozen heart. He looks at me like he knows me, like he has been searching for me across centuries.

Kael Carson —the ruthless Lycan King with golden eyes that promise both protection and destruction. He claims I belong to him, that fate itself has bound us together.

They hate each other. They have been at war for longer than I have been alive.

But they both want me.

But what they both do not know about is my powers and to what extent it could make or break either of them.
