“They want you dead.” I managed to say, my voice barely audible.

“I don't care!” He yelled.

“Its not possible, the two most powerful Mafia's want you dead,Dante.” The tears I tried so hard to conceal all came pouring down. I didn't want to leave him. I didn't want to go.

“I don't fucking care.” His words hung tight in the air. “It's you Veronica, I want you.” He whispered the words I so badly longed to hear.

His voice went deadly calm.

“The rest can all burn in hell.”


All he ever knew was pain. She wanted to be his comfort.

Crysta had to accept the harsh reality when her father betrothed her to one of the princes from the eastern region. There was no other choice for her because King Brent's words were absolute and could not be changed. She who could only obey put aside her feelings that had actually been anchored to a prince.

However, every prince who was betrothed to her always died in a terrible tragedy. Killed by the same person. Namely a shadow who moves in the darkness of the night and has an army called the army of the shadow.
Made Crysta get a title as a cursed princess.

While in a difficult situation to find the truth why the shadow killed the prince who was betrothed to her, Crysta discovered hidden facts about the leader of the army of the shadow.
What is Crysta's story really like? Who exactly is the shadow assassin?

"I'm losing you," Rhett growled, his fingers digging possessively into my flesh. "What's so fascinating in that head of yours?"

I looked up at him, taking in the moonlight that carved shadows across his sculpted chest.

"Just imagining," I replied with deliberate provocation.

His eyebrow arched. "Imagining what exactly?"

I ran my fingertips down his chest, enjoying the way his muscles tensed under my touch. "Imagining a man more devoted and skilled than you."

His face darkened, jaw clenching. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

I realized I'd pushed too far and fell silent, giving him a crooked smile before leaning up to kiss him. He responded hungrily, his anger transforming into something more primal.

He lowered his head, mouth replacing fingers as he parted my thighs wider. His tongue traced deliberate patterns, alternating between broad strokes and precise flicks that made my hips buck involuntarily.


When I married the notorious Rhett Hayes, I thought I'd found my forever. Instead, I discovered I was just another conquest in his collection. For two years, I watched him charm other women while keeping me as his wife in name only, my heart breaking with each betrayal.

The day I finally placed divorce papers in his hands, something changed. His eyes—always cold and calculating—suddenly burned with an intensity I'd never seen. "You're the only one I've ever loved," he whispered, his voice raw. "Everything else was a necessary deception. There are people who would hurt you to get to me."

I didn't believe him—until the attack came. As bullets shattered our windows and masked figures stormed our home, I glimpsed the truth behind his lies. Now, trapped between deadly enemies and the man I'm no longer sure I know, I'm discovering that Rhett's dangerous world is far more complex than I imagined, and the depth of his love more profound than I dared hope.

"You're nothing but a worthless breeding machine trying to seduce our Alpha!" Scarlett shrieked, her claws inches from my throat.

"Do it," I whispered to the voice in my head.

Scarlett lunged, the massive red wolf aiming for a fatal blow. Time seemed to slow down. An ancient, icy power erupted from my core, and with a strength that was not human, I slammed her violently into the dirt.
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. Even Alpha Acheron took a step forward, his silver eyes wide with shock.

"Impossible," Scarlett choked, her eyes filled with sudden fear.

As she whimpered and scrambled backward, I flexed my partially transformed arm, the silver fur shimmering with an ethereal glow.

"I'm not worthless," I growled, my voice laced with the ancient power of the silver wolf. "If you dare touch me again, I'll tear you to pieces."

"And this Alpha, this man, he belongs to me!"

For the first time, my voice was filled with intimidation and dominance.

As I excitedly walked out of the clinic with the pregnancy test results, eager to share this incredible news with my husband, I stumbled upon him and my best friend making love passionately in our bed!

“How could you do this to me! I’ve done so much for you, and you slept with my best friend Michelle! What’s going on between you two?”

I roared, throwing a pretty cushion at them both.

“You filthy little bitch! I don’t know what I ever saw in you!”

He yelled at me, jumped up, and slapped me hard across the face, drawing blood from my lip.

At that moment, I felt utterly hopeless. I decided to leave this place, leave these two scumbags, and start a new life somewhere new.

But my wicked husband, like a persistent ghost, found me again and haunted me. Oh God, what am I supposed to do to escape this miserable life!

SYNOPSIS:I thought meeting my mate would be the start of my happily ever after. For a moment, it was. Jacob Jude, the powerful heir of the Golden Claw Pack, ignited a fire in me that I’d never known. Then, in one cruel twist, he shattered my world.

With my sight newly restored, I opened my eyes to betrayal—false accusations, heartbreak, and the lifeless body of my twin sister. Losing them both on the same day nearly destroyed me. But someone pulled me back from the edge.

Four years later, I’m no longer the fragile, blind girl who was cast aside. I’ve rebuilt myself, stronger and sharper than ever. Returning to the Golden Claw Pack wasn’t in my plans, but fate has a cruel sense of humor. Because standing at the altar is the man who broke me... and the sister I buried.

Now, I have one question—will love or vengeance claim me first?

I felt warm soft lips on my neck. My body felt like it was igniting.
“Your skin is so soft.” A voice said against my neck.

It was a familiar smooth voice that felt like it was filled with a richness. I felt a soft bite into my neck, and I moaned. Large hands slid down my sides. My knee went up and those large hands slid up my thighs, gently, caressing me.
The hands came up and moved between us to grab at my breasts.
The mouth that was occupying my neck moved down kissing my throat. My hands slid from his pale skin to his muscled back and wrapped into clean white hair.

“It means,” he said, stepping closer. “That you aren’t safe yet. You’re vulnerable as long as you’re in human form. Until you’re able to shift, he can get to you. But I won’t let that happen.” He took up a hand and gently pushed back a loose strand of hair. “I could never let that happen.”

I was walking towards the university restaurant before it closed for the day, as I wanted to have my favourite ice cream suddenly someone put his foot, right where I was about to step in because of which I panicked and fell on the hard surface, moreover my glasses left my eyes and fell on the ground.

I was struggling to get my glasses but I saw the guy whose name was Murphy picking them up and dangling around. He always bullied me whenever he could. I never understood why he would pick on me.

“Do you want this, Nerd? Come kiss me and I will give it to you.” He said with mockery.

I looked around for help and tried to get up but I had hit my leg badly when I fell so I couldn’t move my leg.

I struggled and hit him with my fists but he laughed. “You dumb girl, why are you trying to resist, be glad that, I am going to kiss you and turn an ugly duckling like you into a princess ” Saying that he bent his face towards me.

I felt disgusted and wanted to puke on his face and tried to move my face away from his face but he grabbed my chin and made me look at him.

My whole body trembled because of the pain in my leg as I struggled to move back.

I lifted my hands to push him away.

But all of a sudden his weight was lifted away from me and I saw him being pushed on the ground while a hand grasped my arm and pulled me up.

I looked up in surprise only to see a dark pair of eyes looking at me with concern and my heart started beating rapidly....

But the chicken is never found no matter what they do

When the Luna Queen is brutally murdered her mate is shocked to find the betrayer is none other than his best friend and Beta to his Royal Pack.
Having escaped to safety in the arms of her aunt, Princess Angel must keep her true identity a secret from everyone until the day she meets her mate.
Jake is the ruthless Alpha to the Moonlight Pack, he has never wanted to find his mate believing it will make him weak.
How will he react when he meets his mate only to find out that not only is she the Lost Luna Princess but that she's a blood relative to the Moon Goddess?

She was raised to believe she was a human being.
He was born to destroy what she truly is.
But fate never follows the blood it spills.

When twenty-year-old Aria Vale begins suffering from visions of silver moons and wolves howling beneath the city streets, she thinks she’s losing her mind. But the night she meets Kael Draven, everything changes. His eyes—mercurial and ancient—awaken something feral inside her, something her parents spent their lives hiding.

Kael is no ordinary man. He’s the Prince of the Lycan Dominion, an immortal realm built on blood pacts and moon magic. Cursed by the prophecy of the Crimson Bond, Kael carries a bloodline that dooms every soul he loves. He never expected his fated mate to be the last surviving heir of the rival D’Lupin line—the Lost Luna whose return could ignite war between realms.

But Aria’s awakening is more dangerous than either imagined. Her blood isn’t just royal—it’s cursed. The same curse that doomed Kael’s bloodline runs in her veins, linking them in a bond that could either save or consume both worlds.

As forbidden love burns between them, ancient powers stir, and Aria’s lost brother rises from the ashes of betrayal—reborn as the weapon of the very queen who destroyed their family.

In a realm where love is forbidden, and blood decides destiny, one truth remains:
To save the realms, Aria must embrace the monster within or lose everything to it.

She was meant to die in the woods—until he claimed her as his.

Captured by a ruthless Lycan tribe, runaway Lina is thrown at the feet of Alpha Kael—a man as cold as he is commanding. Her death should have been swift, but in one glance, his wolf recognizes what she truly is: his fated mate.

Lina carries a secret that marks her for death: she is the last heir of a lost royal bloodline, a treasure her enemies would kill for and a prize her captor should destroy. Yet Kael, bound by a loyalty fiercer than duty, finds himself torn between his throne and the pull of a heart he never meant to surrender.

Now, with enemies closing in and destiny tightening its grip, their forbidden bond becomes the only thing that can save—or shatter—their world. Because when the Lost Lycan Princess rises, she will not rise alone. She will rise with her Alpha beside her, and the world will learn whether it burns… or bows before their reign.

He was born to rule. She was born to ruin him. And yet, his soul has already chosen: let the world burn, if it means keeping her.

Since she was little, Aurora knew she wasn't like other girls. Her white hair, red eyes... and the inexplicable storms that seemed to follow her.
Raised to hide, she learned to run before asking questions. But when tragedy strikes her town and her mother disappears, Aurora discovers that ancient forces are watching her every move—and that her blood carries a secret that could change the fate of two worlds.
Thrown into a kingdom where creatures join forces with warriors and a deadly tournament decides who rules, Aurora must navigate a world of danger and deception.
Torn between two loves, one light and tender as the morning breeze, the other hot and explosive like a volcano, both want her to trust them, but choosing wrong could mean the end of her life.
Aurora will have to choose between running away from who she is... or becoming the heir everyone fears.
Because there is something growing inside her. Something wild. Something impossible to control.
.
And when it awakens, neither Arcadia nor Earth will be safe.

My life was never mine. I grew up in the shadow of Celine’s perfection—my half-sister—while I was just a mistake my family tolerated out of convenience. But nothing could have prepared me for the night everything fell apart. At Celine’s engagement party, I discovered her fiancé was Theo—my destined mate. The bond that should have united us was ignored, betrayed, as he chose her instead.

Broken, I fled aimlessly and found refuge in a dark bar, where my pain spiraled into something even more chaotic. That’s where I met Cassian. He was dangerous, intense, and exuded a power that both drew me in and terrified me. In a moment of desperation and fear, I did something that changed our lives forever: I marked him.

Now, I’m bound to a rogue Alpha who carries his own secrets and scars. To Cassian, I’ve become something he didn’t know he needed—and something he’s not willing to lose. But Theo hasn’t given up on me either, and I’m caught in the middle of a battle where love, loyalty, and power are woven together in ways I never imagined.

I’ve always been someone’s shadow. Now, I have to discover who I truly am before the bonds I’ve created destroy me—and everyone around me.
