"He knew my last name before he ever knew what I looked like. It wasn't until it was too late to turn back that I found out why."
Agnes Tremaine arrived in Melbourne with a camera but no backstory in this world. She was meant to document one season. She never realized she was already the blueprint — that the connections, the open doors, and the meticulous arrangements were all built specifically for her, tailored and designed to use her.
Ace had a nine-year revenge in the making. A journalist had destroyed his sister's life and left no fingerprints. Now the man's daughter was standing in his garage with a camera, and Ace had been the one to open the door.
His wolf chooses a mate he never wanted and couldn't shake — not in the paddock, not on the track, not even at 200mph where nothing else had ever followed him before.
For the first time in his life, he couldn't have it all.

"Keep your eyes open for me, princess. I want you to see exactly what you do to me with just a single look. I want you to remember the way I make you feel, the way you lose yourself whenever you're with me. Because once you're mine, you'll never forget me."
I had always thought that there was something wrong with me.
Not because I couldn't feel attraction, but because I couldn't stop wanting the one man I was never supposed to think about: Tristan Desmond, my father's cousin.
I had planned to spend the night enjoying my freedom while my parents were away. Going out, having fun, and forgetting about everything. But I never expected to be caught revealing feelings I had desperately tried to hide for the man I was supposed to see only as family.
I had carried this impossible attraction toward Tristan for years. No one had ever made me feel so restless, so lost, or so alive without even trying.
But soon, I realized it wasn't just a forbidden desire.
It was love.
I was willing to risk everything to be with him. I thought I knew what I wanted, but I had no idea who Tristan Desmond truly was.
He wasn't just the man everyone feared. He carried a dark past, dangerous secrets, and a side of himself hidden from the world.
He was far from perfect. He was not a good man.
Yet the more I learned about his darkness, the more I wanted to uncover the truth behind it all.
Because Tristan Desmond wasn't just a temptation. He was a danger I couldn't walk away from.

Whether you like it or not, Blair, you will have us buried inside of you one day," Sinclair whispered into my ear. The feeling of his hot breath against my skin sent shivers down my spine.
I gulped, trying to gather my thoughts.Before I could react, I felt a cold hand on my arm, trailing up to my shoulder and then unzipping my gown. The gown fell to the ground, leaving me naked except for my bra and panties. I instinctively covered my bra with my hands, inadvertently revealing a large portion of my breasts.
However, the hand grabbed my hands and turned me to face him. I was captivated by his blue eyes."Omg! What is happening to me?"He moved closer, his breath brushing against my skin. "How about we bury ourselves inside you today, my love?" Gabriel said with a smirk."No, please," I pleaded."No?" Another voice, with a hint of laughter, came from behind me. "Your body's response suggests otherwise, Blair. Just come to us willingly, it's inevitable as we are your mates," Caleb, the third alpha I was supposed to be babysitting, said.

Clutching his shirt, I pull him closer, and he smirks, well aware of the effect he has on me. The wetness in my core intensifies with his touch.Realization dawns on me as I hastily push him away, panting heavily. His gaze, dark with lust, looks at me intently.
The wetness beneath me and the pain in my neck subside, but the tingling sparks remain.His overpowering scent and minty breath envelop me.

Eva was deemed a 'try hard' for being born to Elizabeth Maxwell - Silverclaw's respected Beta. She endured torment from whom she trusted to be her best friend and possible lover - Damien. When her mother died, Eva's world shattered and everyone's true colors surfaced. In the mishap of her final torment from Alpha Damien, Eva resorted to living a scary, lonely life in the woods. But fate had a twist for her. Awaiting for her arrival were 3 brothers. Alexander, Nicholas and Lucas were waiting for the right one to come HOME.

Blurb

"T-This is pretty common amongst wolves, isn't it? E-Especially since we're all mates?" Eva took a pause to speak to her three mates.
"Shush..." Nicholas shushed her while re-inserting himself, smirking as her throat expanded, tears flowed.
"This...is more common than you think, princess. We are all meant to share you. Just like we shared the womb of our mother." Lucas's sultry voice sent shivers down her spine.
With all three h***s being filled at once, Eva knew she was never running out of love nor affection, or even luck.

I thought I’d found my forever.

Kael was supposed to be my fated mate — my safe place. Instead, he shattered me, ripped away my trust, and left me bleeding in the woods like I was nothing.

Running was the only choice left.

But I didn’t run into freedom. I ran straight into a rival pack, straight into a cage, and straight into the path of two Alphas who couldn’t be more different — one cold and commanding, the other wild and dangerously warm.

They should have killed me. Instead, they’re fighting over me.

And the worst part? My heart is fighting too.
In a world where loyalty is a weapon and love is a battlefield, I’ll have to decide who I am — a victim of betrayal, a pawn in their war… or the Luna who changes everything.

The triplet billionaires appeared, claiming to be her mates.

"May I be granted the privilege of knowing your name, my Lord? I am a fast learner, I promise."
My words faded into a whisper when I felt the bulge underneath his pelt and my breath hitched in awareness. His arms banded around my waist at once and our hips met, his organ pushing at me from underneath. His touch felt familiar and I had to know for sure.

"Why do you wish to know my name, Miatta?"

"I want to be able to cry out the right name when you give me what we both want."


With no other alternative left to her parents, Miatta, the Princess of the Black Fur Pack is given away to a rival Lycan Pack as a gift to end the ongoing lupine war between them.

This was Angela Cassiel's last year in high school. She had planned to spend the last year smoothly and welcomed her she-wolf when she turned 18. She may even find her mate. But she didn't expect her bully, Leo Miller to come back. Leo had always bullied Angela since they met in middle
school. Leo kept bullying Angela, because Angela's father was the reason his mother and sister died. And he wanted Angela to pay for her father's mistake. Angela had no idea of this. She just knew Leo hated her to the guts. She tried to fight against Leo several times, but she was no match for him. Two Years ago, Leo transferred to another school because of family issues. Angela was glad to get rid of the bully bandage. And she thought they would probably never see each other. But her peaceful life was shattered, again, by Leo Miller's return. What would happen next? Would Angela fight against Leo
bravely this time?

“Raise your gown.”

My breath catches at Demetrius' command.

“What?” I whisper.

“You’re in heat, Talitha.” He says, voice low yet edged like velvet-wrapped steel. “Though you may deny it with your tongue, your body is more honest. It aches, it hungers, and it seeks relief. I can smell how badly you want it, Wildling. How badly you want me.”

My fingers curl into the linen of my shift, knuckles blanching, as a tremor runs through me. “I-I thought you were angry with me.”

“I am. By the Goddess, I am fucking livid.” He growls at once, guttural and strained. “But as much as I would love to punish you to my heart's content, I will not have my mate writhing before me in agony while I stand here pretending as though I do not want to pin you to this damn wall and claim you until the bond between us is unbreakable. To fuck you until your legs can no longer bear your body weight, talk less of aiding you in trying to escape me again.”

•••

Found as a pup with an unknown bloodline, Talitha grows up in an Alpha household until the Luna bears her own child, and Talitha becomes disposable. When the Goddess grants her a mate, Cain Lukoji, Talitha dares to dream of freedom. Instead, she is betrayed, brutalized, and rejected, forced to flee while pregnant and utterly alone.

Years later, Talitha is living quietly and peacefully with her daughter until Alpha King Demetrius Yarrow arrives, claiming her as his fated mate. Furious to find she’s already a mother and has built a life without him, Demetrius refuses to let her go.

Now Talitha must decide whether fate is finally offering her salvation or condemning her to a far crueler yet gilded cage.

I was chosen as a breeder of the Shifter King

“What were you dreaming of?,” Aiden asked.
Her head snapped around. “What?”
“What were you dreaming about?,” he repeated.
A blush stained her cheeks.
“I.. uhmm.. I have this recurring dream.”
“What about?”
“Your Highness-”
“Tell me.”
She licked her lips nervously. “There’s this guy and he’s standing behind me, touching me. His hands are everywhere on my body.. My breasts, my stomach, my vagina. His touch sets my body on fire and then he turns me around. I wrap my legs around his waist and fucks me like that.”

A group of women go to be breeders to a clan of shifters, chosen by Sasha. She makes it her personal mission to guide her little sister and a select few through the trials that await them in Terra Mysterium. And, she also got a secret mission, disguised as a blind person to assassinate the shifter king Aiden.

Will Sasha succeed kill King Aiden?
Will Sasha and her sister be able to figure out their hidden true identities before the deadly plots are fulfilled?

“I..I’m...” I can’t form sentences but the message is getting through. They both lower themselves as my orgasm shakes me. On either side of my neck I feel their teeth pierce my skin but the pain soon gives way to pleasure, prolonging my orgasm.

Without warning, Adam swears and cums in my mouth as Austin fills me with his seed.

I feel full and not just physically, I feel like I have been given back a part of myself that I had missed. The three of us lie down, me in the middle, with a feeling of fullness that I have never felt.


What would you do if you were told you had two mates? Two completely different alpha males that you are terribly attracted to. They want you to choose but you only dream of one thing... keeping them both.
That's the situation Aria, a young graduate, finds her world turned upside down when she learns that her best friend and roommate is actually a werewolf and has two mates.
Will she be able to choose between Austin and Adam or will she end up keeping them both?

His right hand delved into my pubis, massaging the area consistently and steadfastly, his fingers opening my wet petals deftly.
"Your clit is beautiful and heavenly," He teased me while fondling and tugging it nonchalantly.
He inserted one finger into my vagina and gently moved it in a circular motion. "Your pussy is fucking wet... So beautiful a pussy you got here. Do you want me to eat it for you?" He teasingly asked. "Yes, yes, yes, yes, uhr uhr...!"


I thought I had escaped the worst.
After years of torment, I was finally free—welcomed into the Shadow Pack and bound by marriage to four sinfully gorgeous men. I was their stepsister in name… but desire doesn’t care about blood or vows. Just when I started to breathe again, my past came crawling back. And I found comfort in the last place I should have looked—in him.

Alessandro Prickette.Heir to a brutal legacy. Colder than steel, sharper than teeth.
He lives for control, thrives on power, and has no room for weakness. But the moment I walked into his life, something cracked.
He touches me like I’m his. He kisses me like he owns me.
And every time I try to walk away, he pulls me deeper into the heat.

He was born to take the throne. But now the only thing he wants to conquer… is me. Can he still rise as his father’s chosen Alpha? Or will the fire between us burn everything to ash?

Having three or more mates is just insane, whatever I am.

Fate will show me what's real using more than one extremely attractive and not remotely men. I feel limitless in their presence and it's becoming very addicting.

She thought she was just an ordinary girl… until her world was torn apart. Lilith Greyson’s pack is weak, her family was at the edge of ruin. Then they arrive—the Radae twins. One is fire incarnate: ruthless, wild, and untamed. The other is ice: calm, terrifying, and impossibly alluring.

Kidnapped, imprisoned, and thrown into a deadly game of power, Lilith soon discovers she isn’t just a pawn—she’s the prize. Each twin pushes her to her limits, testing her strength, her will, and her heart.

And then there’s him… the third alpha. Shadowed, mysterious, and dangerously compelling, he claims pieces of her she never knew existed.

In a world ruled by strength, lust, and secrets that can kill, Lilith must learn to survive—and maybe, just maybe, surrender to the forbidden desire that binds her to three of the most dangerous wolves she’s ever known.

The king wasn't an ugly old man, in fact, he was the most handsome man in the kingdom, but his face was only handsome and charming, his heart was cruel, evil, wicked, and filled with malice.
The king believed that since he was the epitome of power, his subjects were his slaves. He treated women like his property, and the men weren't spared either.

Parents warned their children never to look into the king's eyes because it's rumored that whoever looks the king in his eyes, ends up ruining mad or losing their eyes.

Some called the king a charming beast, some said he was a monster, but the king wasn't offended by his citizen's allegations, because he knew they weren't wrong. He's not a normal human, he depends on blood and human flesh, and the only way to have a continuous supply is to feed on the people he regards as slaves…. the men in his kingdom.

But everything changed when the traitor's son came for revenge, and although Raphael knew the path he was on could cost him his very soul, he was determined to give it his all, and teach the self-centered king a painful lesson.

Raphael was in the lion's den once again, but this time, the lion was hungry and craving fresh blood, it didn't look like anyone would shut its mouth. Worst still, the lion king hates gay, and he wants them eliminated from his kingdom, because of his ongoing curse… Raphael!

They think I’m weak.
They think I’m invisible.
They think I’ll never fight back.

Let them think what they want.

Every day, I walk the halls of my high school with my head down and my heart guarded. The whispers. The laughs. The bruises—both the kind you see and the kind that cut deeper. Being the Beta’s daughter doesn’t protect me. If anything, it’s made me a bigger target.

But I have a secret—one so powerful it could ruin everything… or save me from the nightmare I’m living.

Then they both showed up. Cold eyes. Mysterious past. He sees me, really sees me. And just like that, the walls I built start to crack.

Now, the mates I never asked for want to claim me. The ones who used to ignore me suddenly can’t stay away. Secrets are rising. Fates are shifting. And the girl they used to bully?

She’s done hiding.

I may be broken, but I’m not finished. Not yet.

Aria lost her ten fingers and her entire future to a pair of fake lovers in her past life. Reborn before the crucial music competition, she abandons her role as a shadow pianist and picks up her abandoned violin again. With bleeding fingers and a death wish for revenge, she teams up with Adrian, the ruthless piano tyrant of Juilliard Prep. They burn down the perfect reputation of the hypocritical genius who once ruined her. Broken strings can be re-tuned. Broken talent always plays louder than lies.

They built a hundred-year name on a scholarship they stole from a dead girl.

This morning that name landed on my desk. Brooke Hale, applicant. One signature away from the federal clerkship her family has won, somehow, in every generation since 1962.

I'm the one who signs.

I wrote three words instead. Recommend denial. Then I sat with my hands flat on the file so they'd stop shaking.

The Hales think it's a cold case. A girl named Iris, ruled ineligible sixty years ago, gone quiet, gone poor, gone.

They don't know Iris was my great-grandmother.

They don't know I kept the letter.

Amelia's life took an unexpected turn when she learned that she was diagnosed with a terminal illness that left her only six months to live.

Heartbroken and devastated, the last thing she had expected was to be offered a divorce agreement by her husband, Adrian, when she got back home.

Given that their contract has expired and his ex-girlfriend, who was also Amelia's stepsister, has returned, Adrian wanted Amelia to make way for her. But the last thing he had expected was what she requested as compensation for the divorce.

What did Amelia really request as compensation for the divorce?

What happens when Adrian finds out that the reason why he has been keeping his feelings from Amelia was all lies and that who he wants to leave Amelia for isn't who she really is?

What happens when Adrian tries to win back the woman who he has neglected and sometimes mistreated for no reason only to find out that she's diagnosed with a terminal illness and that she has only a month remaining to live?

I came to Frostveil Academy to because it was expected.
I never expected to be claimed….. especially not by him.

At Frostveil Academy, magic is power—and only the most powerful wolves rule the ice.

My name is Elira Frostborne. I am used to being invisible. I arrives at the elite Frostveil Academy already marked as an outsider. I don’t have my wolf yet. I don’t know my magical limits. And in a school built on dominance, that makes me dangerous—or disposable.
Especially when he starts to notice me….

Kade Pyrrhos is everything Frostveil respects. Powerful. Feared. Unbreakable. His wolf is fully awakened, his strength unquestioned, and his future already written. As the academy’s golden boy, he knows control is everything… until I arrives and his control begins to crumble.

Because something about me calls to him.

Every glance sparks tension. Every moment of closeness ignites power neither of us understands. My magic reacts to him in ways it never has before, and Kade’s wolf refuses to ignore me—no matter how forbidden I am.

Bound by secrets, divided by blood, and drawn together by a force older than the academy itself, we must decide whether to fight the bond forming between us… or surrender to it.

At Frostveil, strength is tested, power is claimed, and some bonds are impossible to break.
Even if he is my stepbrother.

“That’s my husband, Sandra!” I shouted, my voice trembling with a mix of fury and heartbreak. “What is going on? Tell me you planned this! You’ve wanted him from the start, haven’t you?”

My composure shattered. The heat of my emotions burned through me, and all I wanted was for this night, the night I had dreamed of, to unfold as planned.
<<<<<<<<<<<<

Delilah’s life shattered on the night of their mating ritual. Alpha Farrell, the only one who promised her the world, discovered his true mate, her best friend, Sandra.

Farrell was supposed to mark Delilah that night, making her the Luna of the pack. Instead, Delilah was cast out, her dreams reduced to ashes.

Lost and heartbroken, Delilah sought solace in a moment of vulnerability, a one-night stand with a powerful Lycan King. To his shock, she turned out to be his true mate.

But Delilah’s story is far from over. Who is she, really? What secrets does her destiny hold? As layers of mystery unravel, Delilah’s life takes an unexpected turn, uncovering truths that could change everything.
Dive into this gripping love triangle filled with suspense, supernatural powers, magic, war, and jaw-dropping revelations. This is a tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat. She had pinned all her hopes on her marriage. Being a human and marrying the Alpha of a powerful pack was no small feat.. Alpha Farrell loved her deeply, and she loved him just as fiercely.

Tara was married to a scheming husband who is a wolf. She is unaware of her husband's identity. He hates her for being an ordinary woman
On their second anniversary, he sold her to Gaston for a one-night stand. She had sex with Gaston thinking it was Chad. Something changed in her and started demanding sex from her husband because of the way Gaston handled her.
She got pregnant and her husband hated her more and threw abusive words at her and started showing off her girlfriend who is her mate.

“I, Julius Armstrong, reject Doris Charles as my mate.”
The laughter came right after.
This was the second time my mate rejected me because I cannot talk. In the pack, they call me dumb not because I am stupid, but because I am mute.
When I turned eighteen, my first mate rejected me for that reason.
Today, it was the Gamma.
He is twenty-one, the same age as the Alpha and Beta.
This was his third rejection. The first girl was too fat, the second was too short and now, I was dumb.
I never wanted to attend the mating ceremony. I knew how it would end, but my stepmother forced me to go, and my stepsisters came just to watch me get mocked again.
The next day, wolves who had found their mates returned to officially claim them before the Alpha and pack leaders.
I went only because I was forced, just to stand there and watch my stepsister get chosen.
Then something happened that no one expected.
The Alpha claimed me as his mate in front of everyone.
Was I shocked? Yes.
Did I believe him? No.
Did I think it was a cruel joke? Absolutely.
Because no Alpha would choose a rejected, mute girl like me.

I paused at the ajar conference room door, attempting to balance the tray of coffees. Creedon was my new boss, now also my boyfriend. I listened at the door.

“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.

“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*

“She is pretty, but she’s of no value to you, Creedon. A pebble in a sea of diamonds, darling. You can have any woman you desire. Fuck her out of your system, and sign off on her,” Latrisha spat. “That one is going to become a pain in your ass. You need a bitch that will submit.”

Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.

“I have her under control, Trisha, back the fuck off.”

**Control? Oh, hell naw! ** He hadn't met the take no bullshit southern bitch I could be.

Rage brewed as I elbowed open door.

Well, here goes everything.

Today is the day I marry Lucian.

The woman in the mirror wore a gown of pristine white — but Joanna Ashford's eyes held nothing of a bride's joy. Her best friend Sia's whisper brushed her ear: Everything is ready. After the wedding, we'll meet at the tree-lined path behind the estate.

This was no wedding. It was a transaction between two wolf packs. And Joanna was the bargaining chip.


Joanna had once been loved by her fated mate, Sebastian Lockwood — a border patrol Beta with nothing to his name but his integrity and the warmth in his eyes. Then her father, Roger Ashford, Alpha of the Shadow Pack, gave her a choice that was no choice at all: stand in that courtroom and destroy the man she loved, or watch her mother die on an operating table without a signed consent form.

She lied. Every word out of her mouth was a blade she drove into Sebastian herself.

He severed their bond in front of the entire clan before the gavel fell. He didn't look at her once.

She didn't know, as she watched him be led away in silver cuffs, that she was already carrying his child.


Sebastian survived the exile grounds the way only the most furious do — by refusing to die. He emerged harder, colder, and burning with a single purpose. When he walked into the Northern Pack's challenge circle and took down the old Alpha in under three minutes, no one was surprised. When he announced his chosen Luna — Sophia Carter, who had nursed him back from the edge of death — the crowd cheered.

He had built himself a life with no room for the past.

And then a chef in a flour-dusted uniform looked up from across a banquet hall, and his wolf went absolutely feral.


Joanna had spent three years building something small and stubborn out of the rubble of everything she had destroyed. A kitchen job. A tiny apartment. A son named Theo, with deep brown hair that curled at the nape just like his father's, and gray-blue eyes that saw everything.

Theo's ears hadn't developed properly. The bills were staggering. Every restaurant in the Northern Territory had been warned not to hire her.

She kept going anyway. Because Theo needed her to.


Sebastian paid off her debts without being asked. He transferred her a restaurant. He found her in his office on a full-moon night with his silver cuffs already snapped, and she stayed — and in the dark afterward he said: Move into my apartment. She said: Let's pretend this never happened.

Her wolf Nana came back at last, in a forest surrounded by rogues Sophia had sent to kill her, red fur erupting through torn skin. Go find Sebastian, Nana whispered before going quiet again. Tell him about Theo. He'll love Theo.


Tomorrow is the Moon Festival. Tomorrow is the marking ceremony that will bind Sebastian to Sophia forever.

Joanna has one chance left — and one question she cannot answer.

When Sebastian learns the truth about the courtroom, about the child he never knew existed — will he look at Theo and see his son?

Or will he only see her betrayal?

"We want to see the virgin's breasts!" They shouted and ripped off my top, leaving me in nothing but my underwear.
Everyone laughed at me, but I can't do anything.
I couldn't speak.
"She seems to have a nice ass ...... " the man said.
He propped me up on a table and put my hands behind my back, then turned me over and lifted my skirt, exposing my ass. I gasped and tried to move, but he spanked me.
"How about we start with a hundred dollars? Any more, and you can check if she's a virgin...... " he said while holding me there.
"One hundred dollars!" I felt a hand rubbing my thighs and spread my legs.
But a voice boomed across the room.
"Five thousand dollars ...... Get your fucking hands off of her." An alpha voice rang out, and everyone fell silent.
" The deaf virgin is sold to the Alpha over there for five thousand dollars!"


The pack had always hated Mildred for not having a wolf.
The future alpha of the pack, her mate, immediately rejected her.
However, shortly after she escaped, she was kidnapped. She realized that her mate had sold her to the human trafficking mafia.
There, she met her second mate ...... He bought her. He was an Alpha who had suffered for years without his mate, which turned him into a violent and ruthless man.
Just when Mildred thought she had a chance to be happy, her first mate appeared again, jealous and demanding that Mildred become his wife.
Now Mildred was between two mates from rival packs, and she seemed to have a power to win the war.

Trevor didn't start by loathing Sireen. Heck, he had always been nice to her. It all went downhill when Sireen's sister, Trevor's mate, Kylie, died in an attack, and a weak Sireen did nothing to save her. In his terms, she's a murderer. Ignoring her trauma, Trevor became Sireen's tormentor. Her bully. The bane of her very existence. So when he finds out at the start of second year that Sireen is his second chance mate, he definitely rejects her. But wait. Not before humiliating her in front of the entire school, exposing her guarded secret which was an outcome of watching her twin sister die.
When Sireen and Trevor are forced to breathe the same air as each other and see each other in and out of school everyfreakingday, at least one person is set to Lose. Their. Sanity.
How much torture can Sireen take?
And just how long can Trevor stand his rejected mate's presence? Delve in to find out!

The night High Alpha Rhazien Vaelborne took Seraya for the first time, she thought the Moon Goddess had answered her prayers.

Then he chose another woman as his Luna, she realized the Moon could be just as cruel.

Branded a bond thief, declared scent-cursed, and condemned to exile, Seraya should have died beyond the borders of Wolfsbane Bastion.

Instead, she was found by the one wolf the Council had spent years trying to erase.

Corvan Vaelborne. An exiled Alpha. A cursed bloodline.

A man whose mates were never meant to survive.

But the more their forbidden bond grows, the more ancient secrets buried beneath Bastion begin to awaken.

Now the Council wants her dead. Rhazien wants her back.
And the child she carries may become either the salvation of their world or the reason it burns.

How far will two Alphas go to claim one omega and what happens when she chooses neither?

They told Christine Hayes she was worthless—no wolf, no power, no place in the pack. Her own father sold her for fifty million dollars.

The buyer? The Lycan King himself.

Cedric Lancaster doesn't do love. Not anymore. His fated mate died in his arms five years ago, and he swore never to mark another. But Christine is carrying his twins—an accident from a night neither of them fully remembers—and his dying wolf spirit is screaming one word: MATE.

She signs his contract to save her dying brother. He tells himself it's just about the heir. But every time her green-apple scent fills the room, his iron control cracks a little more.

She's a wolfless Omega at the bottom of the hierarchy. He's the king at the top. The contract says she walks away after the birth.

But since when has the Moon Goddess ever played by anyone's rules?
