They said that a weak human could never be the alpha's mate. It breaks her heart to see her mate marrying a girl from another pack. Without knowing that she was not just a human with powerful blood but a werewolf too. Daughter of alpha from the Blazing flame pack.
Hector and Luna find themselves in a situation where they need to protect each other until their last breath. Their love for each other became a possible strength in an actual weakness.

Mira Holloway was never meant to survive werewolf territory.

Sent by her coven under false pretenses, she carries a single vial of moon-bound poison and one deadly order: kill the Alpha King before the packs unite and plunge the world into war.

Alaric Bloodhowl is everything Mira was warned about—ruthless, dominant, and feared by every wolf who draws breath. His power rules the packs, his word is law, and his control has never faltered… until the night of the blood moon.

One drop of blood ignites an ancient bond neither of them asked for.

Now Mira is trapped between loyalty and desire, her mission rotting in her pocket as the bond tightens with every heartbeat. Because if the truth comes out, the Alpha King won’t hesitate to destroy her.

And when the blood moon rises again, Mira will have to choose: betray the man her soul has claimed… or doom them both to a fate written in blood.

Born in a pack that only valued beauty and fluidity on ice, Yvonne's weight and her wolf's fear of ice was practically a curse.

The day before the grand audition, a day that every werewolf teen looks forward to, she finds out her ice skating partner of two years and her boyfriend, had dropped her as a partner and gone for her step sister instead.

Heartbroken, she nearly gives up, understanding that she may either end up auctioned or as an omega if she isn't able to audition into the grand rink, especially with her commoner status.

And that is when Void comes in. Her best friend since they were both eight and she cleverly saved him from a snake, Void was the best ice skater in the pack and the alpha heir, the only one exempted from having to compete for a place in the rink.

But once Yvonne is left all alone, he steps in, offering her a once in a lifetime chance.

Dance with him on the ice. That was all.

Neither of them expected it to be messy. Especially not Yvonne. But it was, and amongst it all, she found herself looking at her childhood best friend a little differently.

Lilith, born to be cursed as feared by many. Her mother arranged a marriage between her and Prince of the Zaryth Kingdom, their longtime rival. This marriage would bring peace between the two kingdoms. But in the castle lies secrets and not everyone is who they seem to be. Lilith comes across a stranger in the castle who is more than he seems to be. Will Lilith choose her kingdom over heart?

Kaelen Vance is a broken soldier who just wants to disappear. But when a dying Alpha thrusts a moonstone into his hands, he is dragged into a war he never asked for—a prophecy that says he alone can unite werewolf packs torn apart by 300 years of blood. The only problem? The two Alphas who find him, the scarred and dangerous Aldric Thorn and his charming, manipulative brother Roman, both feel the mate bond snap into place. And the prophecy says Kaelen must destroy one of them.

The Blood Moon is twelve months away. If Kaelen fails, every wolf on earth will turn feral.

But nothing is what it seems. There’s a traitor inside the pack, feeding secrets to human hunters who want all wolves dead. Kaelen’s own body betrays him—he’s not fully human. His wolf has been suppressed by a dark secret, and when it awakens, it reveals a power that terrifies even the Alphas. He is the Eclipse Wolf: a weapon so dangerous that both packs want to control him. Or kill him.

And then there’s the romance. Aldric burns cold and fierce, offering protection at the price of Kaelen’s freedom. Roman weaves seduction and lies, promising love but hiding a knife. Kaelen loves them both, but one of them might be the spy. One of them might be the enemy. And the prophecy might not be about saving the world—it might be about ending it.

Allison was framed, and they said she tried to kill her half-sister, so they sent her to an asylum. For three years, she suffered all kinds of torture, and no one even bothered to check on her. Her own family called her mentally ill, but the truth was her mother betrayed her just to push her illegitimate daughter into the Rogers family and steal Allison’s identity.

She had nothing left except an injured body. But a sudden encounter with the notorious mad dog of the Lopez family became her one advantage. She saved the crippled Jareth Taylor during an underground fight.

Allison slowly walked toward the confused Jareth, who was sitting on the couch with his cane in his right hand. “Elite society calls you a mad dog, but Master Jareth is far more than that. You’re the craziest dog I’ve ever met. Still, I’m willing to become your bait in exchange for power.”

Jareth chuckled, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his lips. “I take both body and soul as collateral. Would you be willing to crawl into my bed and warm my lonely nights?”

I gasped for breath, clutching my chest, the bloody scene of my former husband's mistress, Kelly, slitting my throat still vivid in my memory. Now, I had been reborn.
The man I once deeply loved, the man with whom I built a business empire, and his mistress, Kelly, were staring at me defiantly.
"Evelyn, this is Kelly. She... she's pregnant. She needs our help. I think we can take her in."
But the weeping Evelyn of the past was dead. The woman standing before them now was a queen returned from hell, ready to burn their kingdom to the ground.
"Of course, darling," I said in a sweet yet venomous voice. "Let her stay. I'm happy to keep my enemies close."
Gray breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know that this time, I wouldn't just divorce him; I would take his gang, his money, his dignity, and leave him with nothing but regret.

He is the First Wolf.
Five thousand years of blood and moon and hunger carved into a man who no longer remembers how to ask.
She is the last High Priestess reborn, the only woman who ever made the Moon scream, and the only one who can end his curse… or finish him for good.
Eva Harlow doesn’t believe in fate. She believes in locks, in exits, in never owing anyone anything.
Malach Whitaker believes in one thing only: her.
He has waited through empires and plagues and the slow rot of centuries, collecting pieces of her dead lives like a dragon hoards gold. This time he is done waiting. This time the torc is around her throat before she even knows she’s been caught.
Beneath a shuttered Appalachian megachurch lies The Hollow: an underground coliseum of rust, rage, and pack law.
Here, silver scars and moonshine flow in equal measure.
Here, the bond between them is a living blade: every touch sharpens it, every refusal makes it bleed.
Body. Blood. Womb.
Three offerings she swore to a Goddess who no longer walks the earth.
Three offerings she will have to give freely, or watch the world drown in wolves.
She will try to run.
He will let her.
She will try to kill him.
He will die smiling, because the curse won’t let him stay dead until she loves him enough to break it.
This is not a love story.
This is a claiming.
This is the sound of a five-thousand-year hunger finally sinking its teeth into the only throat it was ever meant for.
Dark. Feral. Inevitable.

"I will make them pay for making you suffer," Lukan said to me.
"Why me?" I asked, swallowing hard. "I'm not good for you. I killed my parents. I might repeat the same mistake."
"I don't care about that," He replied, his voice steady. "I bought you because I want to mark you and make you mine."
How do you survive when the only life you've known has been taken from you?
At six years old, I was branded a murderer—blamed for something I didn't understand. My wolf was bound, and I became a slave to my cruel aunt and uncle. For fifteen years, I endured their abuse and believed the lies they told me.
Until the day I was auctioned to the highest bidder: the arrogant Alpha Lukan.
I thought being sold would only bring more misery, but instead, it brought me to the powerful and mysterious Alpha of the Nightbane Pack. He was ruthless yet kind, cold yet tender, and he looked at me like I was someone worth protecting. Like I mattered.
But nothing is ever that simple.
Why did he choose me? Why does he keep me close yet seem so distant, like he's searching for something I can't see?
When the Moon Goddess decides to play chess with your life, you have no choice but to move with the game. And with every step I take, new secrets rise—each one threatening the fragile happiness I've just begun to feel.
Now I must decide:
Am I just another pawn?
Or can I become the queen in a game I never asked to play?

Ashlynn had just graduated Veterinary School, excited to find a job. She was living with her parents on the edge of Pack Land, her father not wanting them to close to anyone. Her father was violent, and often abused her mother. Her mother refused to tell anyone and made Ashlynn keep it secret. Things changed as soon as Ashlynn's father attacked her. When the Alpha intervened, Ashlynn and her mother moved away to avoid embarrassment. Will this new Pack offer them comfort, or more danger?

“Be sure. If we do this, it is forever. And you and I WILL live forever. That is what it means to be you. You will live forever, but if you become my mate, I will live forever too, and you and I will be tied for eternity.” Lyle’s eyes were probing. They seemed to be searching for the truth.

For Amaris, the search for truth has always been paramount. But when Lyle enters her life, she must face the ultimate question: will she choose to be with him? As she searches for the truth about their future, Amaris must confront her deepest desires and fears. Will she be brave enough to take the leap and live forever with the man she loves?

“You are mine,” Riven growled, his hand tightening on the back of my neck.The cafeteria went dead silent. Everyone was watching—my sister, my best friend, even Marcus, the arrogant Alpha heir who thought he could claim me. But Riven didn’t care. He pulled me against his hard chest, his red-gold eyes burning with a possessiveness that should have terrified me.
“We’re mates, Callista. Deal with it.” He didn’t wait for my answer. He didn’t care that we were only sixteen, or that the bond wasn’t supposed to manifest for another two years. He just claimed me in front of the entire school. Marcus stepped forward, his face twisted in rage. “You can’t claim her. It’s against the rules!” Riven smirked, a dark, dangerous look that made my wolf howl in satisfaction. “Rules? I make the rules when it comes to her.”


Callista, the daughter of the Blood Moon Alpha, was born with the gift of prophecy. Pampered and protected, she has never known true danger. Not until one nightmare changes everything.
In her vision, her entire pack is slaughtered by a ruthless Alpha with power beyond imagination. She thinks it’s just a nightmare until she meets the son of the Shadowfang Alpha, Riven.
Riven is dangerous, arrogant, and everything she should hate, but something about him draws her in like no other.
Now Callista must navigate a shifting world of loyalties, forbidden attraction, and a prophecy that could demand her to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Her one true mate.

As a housewife, I never forgot a single milestone: every wedding anniversary, my husband’s 7th career anniversary, and the birthdays of my husband and daughter. Yet, my own birthday was always ignored. Both my husband and daughter only cared about that outsider woman. Finally, one day, I chose to walk away and revive my vintage shop business. Now... they are the ones filled with regret.

She was chosen by the moon. Lyra never expected her eighteenth birthday to end with a crown on her head and a world resting in her hands. As the new Moon Goddess, she must learn to guide fate itself, balancing life, death, and everything in between. But in a realm of gods, power isn’t the only thing that matters. He was never meant to be hers. And yet— “I know I’m not the fated you had hoped for… but if you give me the chance, I’d like to learn your heart and soul. I’d like to hold them both.” In a world built on destiny and fate, they choose each other anyway. As their bond deepens, so does the danger. The threads begin to twist, and echoes of something broken ripple through the realms. When war reaches the people she loves most, Lyra must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect them. Being a goddess doesn’t mean she can save everyone, and love doesn’t mean she won’t lose everything.

“You know, when I first realised what you were to me, I thought the universe had made a mistake.”
My brows lift slightly. “A mistake?”
“Yes,” he says with a faint smile. “You were too bright. Too alive. Too extraordinary for someone like me.”
“That is impossible.”
His hand lifts slowly, brushing a loose strand of hair back from my face, his fingers lingering just long enough to make my breath catch. “You are the Moon Goddess,” he continues softly. “You carry the weight of worlds, the hopes of millions, the quiet rhythm of every life moving beneath these threads.” His thumb traces gently across my cheek. “And still,” he adds, voice lowering, “the only thing I’ve ever truly wanted from you… Is you.”

She was never meant to exist.
Hybrids that are born under the blood moon in Valeria are persecuted, and their existence forgotten over time.
Kaelia, a Lupherian Omega—wolf-moon spirit—is a special kind. She has managed to live this long by suppressing her scent, masking her strength, and disguising herself as a lowly Beta servant in the king's palace. Her only rule: stay invisible.

But when she’s forced into the path of Prince Alarion, the unmated Alpha heir bound by duty and desperation, a moment of chaos unravels her disguise. Her suppressed scent breaches the air—and his wolf responds with a single word: Mate.

What begins as denial spirals into obsession.

As courthouse rumor devolves into suspicion, and an undercover flame burns to engulf her, Kaelia and Alarion are inducted into a storm of ancient prophecy, royal heritage, and magical forces long feared and lost. For Kaelia's blood contains more than forbidden magic—it contains royal blood, and with it, a secret that could reduce the crown to ash.

With war stirring beneath the polished floors of the palace and enemies closing in from within, Kaelia and Alarion must choose:
Hide their bond and survive...
Or expose it and challenge the fate the moon has written for them both.

Blood of the Forbidden Moon is a slow-burn, soul-deep fantasy romance about love that defies kingdoms, power that defies bloodlines, and a mate bond that could either save the realm—or doom it.

The Crown burned the moment Elara touched it.

Not a royal.
Not a noble.
Just a nameless servant girl meant to stay invisible.

Yet when the Blood Moon rose and the ancient Crown awakened testing bloodlines and devouring the unworthy—it rejected every royal heir before the entire court.

Then it called her.

Chosen by forbidden magic older than the kingdom itself, Elara becomes the first ruler in Virellion’s history with no lineage… and the most dangerous queen prophecy ever named.

Because the Crown does not grant power freely.

It feeds on blood.
On fear.
On sacrifice.

Bound by ancient law, Elara is forced into an unbreakable union with King Kael—the cursed ruler whispered to be more monster than man. With every Blood Moon, the curse steals fragments of his soul, leaving behind a king feared for his cruelty and haunted by what he’s becoming.

To survive, he must accept a queen chosen by fate.
To rule, she must wear a crown that may consume her humanity.

Their bond is forged not by love—but by survival.

As rebellion ignites and forbidden magic begins to stir, Elara uncovers a truth the throne buried for centuries: the Blood Moon was never meant to choose kings.

It was meant to create weapons.

With each lunar rise, the Crown grows more demanding… and the king who swore never to love begins to desire the one woman prophecy claims will destroy him.

If Elara refuses the Crown, the kingdom will collapse into war.
If she accepts it, she may lose her heart—or become something no longer human.

As rebellion rises and dark truths surface, Elara discovers the throne has been built on a lie…
It chooses sacrifices.

Elara was chosen because the Blood Moon does not choose queens to rule.

It chooses them to bleed.

Born without a wolf and tortured by her own family, Raine thought she was a useless outcast—until she saved the pack's elite warrior, and a terrifying, heterochromatic Lycan king claimed her in her darkest dreams.
Raine is the daughter of the Silver Pack Alpha, yet she lives nothing like one. Born wolfless, she is seen as a shame, ignored by her parents and quietly despised by the pack.
She exists in the shadow of her perfect sister who gets everything that was ever hers, surviving on silence and retreat. Everything changes the moment she steps into the Lycan palace.
Chosen among the shewolves presented to the Lycan Grand Prince, a male known for his ruthless nature and cold heart, Raine is thrust into a strange world than the one she left behind.
Will this selection finally change her fate for the better, or will it drag her deeper into a destiny she was never meant to survive?
Raphael held onto her tightly, burying his face in her neck to take a sniff.
"Mate," he murmured softly, breathing in her scent.
Then his expression changed.
His brows furrowed, and confusion crossed his face. In the next moment, his expression hardened with displeasure.
Suddenly, he pushed her away.

" My whole body was on fire. Ollie moved his hands down my sides and cupped my butt to lift and pull me toward him. I didn't hesitate to swing my leg over his to straddle him. Ollie quickly stoked my bare thighs, the sensation sending goosebumps all over my skin. I felt his bulge rubbing up against my covered core. His fingertips ran up my back, and he again pulled my lips toward his. With each shift of our bodies, my nipples pebbling against my dress's fabric. Already, this was far better than any of my experiences before. The way Ollie's touch set me on fire was otherworldly. "


Nyx has been abused and treated like a lunatic by her mother and people around her. Her human diagnosis is revealed and everyone dismisses her because she sees things that are not there. Ollie is the alpha king and finds himself distracted by the young woman who moved into his pack's territory. When they continue to encounter each other their curiosity grows. Ollie saves her in the nick of time. The two start off as friends, but friends don't kiss...
Now as time moves forward, Nyx discovers that everything she thought was true in their lives is a lie. Ollie reveals that he is a werewolf.
Not all things are happy ending though as the villians in the story do not want to give the Alpha king the power he finally found and do everything they can to elimate him, including throwing Nyx back into the abusive clinic that caused so much pain...

"Just fuck my life," I snarl, "I need some fresh air."
"I see you're still in a bad mood," a familiar, hated voice drawls, dripping with with arrogance.
Jaxon leans against the wall beside me, the heat from his body radiating like a furnace. Some sick impulse inside me wants to lean against him, just to see how it feels, but there's no way in hell I'm allowing that to happen.
"Maybe if you would stop stalking me, I wouldn't be," I snap, turning my back to him.
He lets out a low snort. "Please. I just keep running into you by accident."
"Well, you won't have to worry about that soon."
"And why is that?" he asks, a hint of curiosity creeping into his voice.
I meet his eyes, but the intensity is too much, so I look away. "Why do you care? You'll be Alpha soon, and you can continue fucking all the pack sluts your heart desires. That's if you even have a heart," I growl bitterly.

WARNINGS: s****l CONTENT, DOMESTIC ABUSE, SUICIDE, GRIEF, AND VIOLENCE!

Melanie Stokes is Alpha Damon’s eldest daughter and heir. Jaxon Miller is the fatherless male wolf that snatches the title right from underneath her. After they begin to work together as Alpha and Beta, they make a deal to have a casual relationship until the Mating Ball, when they will both meet their mates and decide their fates from then. What happens when Jaxon discovers they are mates a month before the ball and that the Moon Goddess chose her from birth to become a member of “The Alpha Council” that will force her to leave the pack? Can he make her fall in love with him before her hatred causes her to reject him? Can love even prevail the challenges they will face if she does choose him? Find out when you read, “Alpha Jaxon” by Destiny B.

“I need you to do me a favor once you become Alpha.”
“Anything for you, my Alpha,” I say, sitting up straighter.
“Get rid of Melanie.” He leans forward, his voice dropping low.
I can’t stop my mouth from falling open. “W-What?” Did I hear that correctly? He does know he’s talking about his own daughter, right?
My reaction causes him to scowl. “Yes. She poses a threat, Jaxon. You don’t think she will retaliate once you become Alpha?”
I open my mouth to speak but hold my tongue. I mean, he’s right. I know Melanie well enough to know that she will throw some type of tantrum about it. Defiance is her middle name, but I’m pretty sure I can keep her in line without ‘getting rid of her’.
I swallow hard. “Alpha, you want me to kill your daughter?”
Saying those words causes the pit in my stomach to deepen.
Is this really happening right now?

“I never asked for this," I whisper, my voice trembling with a mix of fear and something deeper I can't quite name.
Ava Shemar never imagined she would be the one to take her sister's place. But after years of living in Aria’s shadow, she’s suddenly thrust into the very role she never wanted—Rogan Gray’s bride. Once the boy who captured her heart, Rogan is now a cold stranger with eyes that barely see her. But there’s more beneath his indifference—something dark and painful that neither of them can escape.
Rogan isn’t just marrying her for the pack’s sake. He’s using her to get closer to the sister who broke him—and no matter how much Ava tries to prove herself, she will never be good enough for the man she’s always loved.
Then, the truth begins to unravel. Aria isn’t gone—she’s alive, and she’s hiding secrets that could tear everything apart. As Ava races to uncover the mystery, her every step brings her closer to a truth that might destroy them all.

And just when she thinks she’s finally reached Rogan’s heart, Aria walks through the door.
The past is never truly buried. And neither is the love Rogan once had for her twin.
Will Ava remain a shadow in her sister’s wake? Or will she finally claim the heart that was always meant for her?
The moon is full tonight—and so is the truth. But as I look into Rogan’s eyes, I wonder… Who will he choose when the truth comes out?

Ophelia was born the weakest wolf in the pack, mocked, beaten, and treated like nothing. All she ever dreamed of was the day the Moon Goddess would give her a mate who would love her despite her flaws.

But when her fated mate was revealed, he didn’t claim her. He crushed her.

“I, Alpha Dominic, reject you as my mate. You will never be my Luna.”

The words tore her apart, and the pack’s laughter sealed her fate. Cast out, abandoned, and left to die, she thought her story had ended.

But the broken girl they discarded rose. The weak omega become stronger than them all. And the Alpha who rejected her bow at her feet.

“You think I’m going to let my daughter sleep with whoever she wants” he spat. He kicked me in the ribs, sending me flying back across the floor.
“I didn’t” I coughed, gasping for air.
I felt as though my chest had caved in. I thought I was about to vomit when Hank grabbed my hair and lifted my head. CRACK. It was like my eye had exploded inside my skull when he punched me in the face. I landed on the cold concrete and pressed my face onto the floor. He used his foot to roll me over so that I was on my back.
“Look at you, you disgusting c**t” he huffed as he crouched down beside me and wiped the hair from my face. He smiled, a terrifying evil smile.
“I have something extra special for you tonight” he whispered.

For five years, Elara was the "peasant" wife, the woman who gave her kidney to save Shawn’s life, only to be rewarded with his cold indifference and his family’s verbal abuse. She was the dutiful housewife, hiding her true identity as the world’s most feared cybersecurity genius, and the secret heiress to a global empire. She stayed for love. She stayed for the hope of a family.

But hope dies in a cold swimming pool.

When Shawn pushes a pregnant Elara into the water to save his mistress, he not only breaks her heart, he kills the only thing she had left to love.

Waking up in a hospital bed with an empty womb and a frozen heart, Elara is done playing nice. As Shawn prepares to discard her for his mistress, he’s met not with a weeping wife, but with the arrival of five of the most powerful men in the world—Elara’s brothers.

Now, the "peasant" is the predator. While Shawn’s empire begins to crumble under a mysterious cyber-attack, he finds himself desperately chasing the woman he once despised. But Elara has already moved on to a man who never had to be taught her value.

Nyra Vale was born without a wolf, and rejected by the one man fate chose for her.

When her Alpha mate turns his back on her, Nyra leaves her pack with nothing but a broken heart and the gift of healing she was never allowed to be proud of. She disappears into the wild, determined to survive on her own.

But fate is not done with her yet.

Wounded and close to death, Nyra is saved by Rowan, a powerful Lycan who has long given up hope of finding a mate. In his territory, she finds safety, strength, and a man who does not look at her like she is lacking.

As a deadly curse begins to spread through the packs, Nyra’s healing becomes the one thing that can stop it. The Alpha who once rejected her must now kneel before her for help. But some bonds, once broken, can never be healed.

She will save them all.
She just won’t give her heart away again.

I’m a retired Special Forces soldier. After I got out, I handled problems people didn’t want on paper, and I’ve seen enough dirty work to last a lifetime.

When I finally retired for real, I wanted a normal life.

So I came back to the orphanage where I grew up, planning to adopt a quiet seven-year-old boy I’d kept in touch with for years.

But the moment I arrived, I was told he’d already been “adopted.”

I called the family to make sure he was safe. On the line he said, “I’m fine.”
Then I heard it—fingernails tapping in a pattern: three short, three long, three short.

The distress signal I had taught him.

I stormed into the director’s office and forced the truth out: the adoption papers were fake. He wasn’t taken into a home. He was sold.

They think I’m just a returning orphanage worker.
They have no idea what I’ve done out there—and no idea I’m very good at cleaning up this kind of mess.

Ravenna Damon was banished for existing.

Darius Pike crossed the border anyway.

They built something in the wilderness. A home from nothing, a child on the way, something almost close to peace. The Moon Goddess let them have three months before she took it back.

Now Darius is dead. Her child is gone. And the man responsible for both is apparently her second fated mate.

The bond does not care what Caleb Nightshade did. It does not care that Ravenna has nothing left to lose, or that the war outside the dungeon walls is burning everything she ever loved to the ground. It simply exists, pulling at her like a tide, patient and merciless and completely indifferent to her feelings about it.

She has a choice. Survive Caleb or die rejecting him.

Ravenna Damon has never been good at dying.

Mated to the Enemy is the second book in the Blood and Ice series. It contains mature themes, grief, and emotional intensity.
