SYNOPSIS

“Remember,” he growled, his voice roughly caressing against the shell of my ear. His large and scarred hand splayed possessively on my stomach, pulling me back against the hard wall of his chest. We were a twisted parody of a loving couple, nestled in the bed we once shared.

I squeezed my eyes shut, trembling. “I—I can’t. I'm fucking trying.”

His lips brushed the sensitive skin of my neck, a gesture that felt anything but tender. “Try harder, malyshka. The man who put that bullet in your head is in this house. He smiles at me across the dinner table. And you’re the only one who can point a finger.”

He shifted, and I felt the cold, hard steel of a pistol being pressed into my palm, his fingers closing mine around the grip.

“So remember. Before I have to burn this whole fucking world down to find him with you in it”

But living with him again is a sweet, painful torture. Because his revenge isn’t just about ruining me.

It’s about making me want him one last time… before he breaks my heart forever.

Ashley Evaline Miller was your drop-dead gorgeous perfect girl next door. Decent, smart, focused, and goal-oriented. She didn't have all the luxury one could think of, but she was content with what she had.

Stuck with her self-acclaimed perfect boyfriend, whom she'd do and be anything for, breathing down on her neck and draining every ounce of happiness out of her, plunging her into an oblivious hole of darkness. The love of her life who has taken so much from her, leaving just the shell of whom she used to be.

She'd stop at nothing to make him happy.

HE BOUGHT HER; SHE STOLE HIS SOUL

Anya Koslov was sold to settle her father's debt, becoming the Blood Tithe to the most powerful Bratva in Moscow. She is now a commodity of Nikolai Markov, a Pakhan so cold that even monsters feared his name.

“Please… I’ll do anything,” Anya whispered, her voice like a fragile thread in the crushing silence of the hall. On her knees, she was just one more offering in a centuries-old tradition, a debt paid in flesh and blood.

He circled her like a predator assessing his latest acquisition. His voice was winter itself, cold and absolute. “Your life is not yours to bargain with anymore.” His gloved hand caught her chin, forcing her to meet a gaze as stormy and merciless as his soul. “From this moment, little ghost, you belong to me.”

“Go away from me. Let me be, you monster!” Eira screamed, her voice echoing from behind the room she had closed herself on. Determined more than ever not to see him. She heaved, her chest rising and falling to the pain."You took everything from me, Draven. You took everything from me!"

"Then take it back, Eira.” Draven called out possessively, “Hate me, fight me, do everything Eira, but don't dare leave me. I won't let you do that.”

…

Eira Katz's world is ripped apart when she is abducted by Draven, a man blinded by grief and vengeance. Accused of murdering the only woman he ever loved—a woman carrying his child—Eira becomes the target of his rage. Held captive, she endures relentless torment, all for a crime she did not commit.

But when the truth is revealed, the damage is already done. Draven has destroyed her life, killed the man she loved, and left her with nothing. As Eira grapples with the aftermath, she learns she is carrying his child, a bond neither of them can escape.
Trapped in a cycle of vengeance, guilt, and reluctant dependency, Eira must decide whether to escape her captor or confront the broken man who refuses to let her go. But in a world where pain and passion collide, the line between love and hatred blurs.

Will Eira find freedom, or will she be forever bound to the man who took everything called life away from her?

“But I—”

“Shh,” he said, placing his fingers on my lips. “I have found a bond with you, and I found you..." He trailed off, as if not knowing the words to use. "You are the most beautiful woman in this world I have seen. I want you to be my Luna, and I don't want anyone else near you,” he said.

“I know you are scared and do not have any experience, but that is not a problem. I will guide you. I will be your head. I will love you. And we shall live together happily."

"I'm not—"

"It is not up for debate.”

She stared at the cup, then back at him, not daring to take a sip. When he noticed her attitude, he tilted his head, staring at her in disbelief. God this man was perfect.

He reached for the glass, took a sip, and then slid it to her once more.

"Don't worry, I don't poison my offenders. That would be less fun" he said and she shuddered in fear, grabbing the glass and placing it on her shaky lips, gulping the content as the tears threatened to fall.

"Will you kill me?"She asked in a cracked, shaky voice.

"It depends"

"On what?"

"If you are willing to go on a deal with me," he said, but coldly this time. A stern look took over the smirk on his face. Racheal immediately knew he meant business.

"What deal?"

Like you have never existed in this life and the next." "It doesn't matter." "You will be nothing."

“You wish, and I will say it again, go fuck yourself,” she said again but this time louder
“Say fuck one more time, princess, just say it,” he said in a threatening voice as he walked closer to her.

He reached for my panties, his fingers slipping under the lace and his thumb brushed against my labia.
I moaned and arched my back, pressing my breast on his chest.
“You are so wet,” he mumbled. “So beautiful and so responsive.”
I moaned again, my body moving on its own, as my hips moved against his hand, my body shaking from anticipation and begging for relief.
The man slid my panties down my legs, and his fingers played with my sensitive labia.
“You want this... you want this,” he whispered, his lips placing wet kisses on my neck. “You want me.”
I nodded, the words refusing to come out. But one thing was sure, I wanted him, I wanted his touch, I wanted to feel his skin on mine, I wanted his body pressed on mine, and I wanted to feel him deep inside me.
“Then take me,” my mouth finally opened to speak, a low whisper and in a voice that was breathless and raw. “Then take me now. Make me yours”
The man grabbed me by the waist and lifted me up, pressing my body on the wall.
“I am going to take you,” he growled, his hands roaming over my body, his fingers rolling my sensitive nipples between his thumbs and index fingers. “I am going to take you, until you can only scream and beg me for more.

Toby and Jarold stand at the head of the platform at the annual pack ceremony. As the Alpha's heirs and still neither having a mate, their father had been strutting them around every pack meeting since he won the Alpha position.

"What do you think the chances of us just happening upon our mate after two years of being forced to shake every available hand in the pack?" Toby muttered to his brother between people.

"The same amount as any other occasion, which is pretty much none." Jarold muttered back, though he gave a friendly enough smile to the female in front of him who was looking up at him with stars in her eyes.

"I know it has to be skin to skin contact to trigger the mark but you'd think we'd have some clue from our wolves recognizing each other." Toby said.

"Dad said when the human form doesn't want to be mated, they may block their wolf's call." Jarold said with a shrug.

"You're up." Christine nudged her sister, Kathrine, with a grin. They had been at the back of the line, just in protest of having to be a part of the ritual at all.

With a sigh Kathrine went up in front and grasped hands with Toby then felt her eyes go wide as a slight sting lit her palm at the same time as his eyes widened.

"Now grasp Jarold's hand." A gravelly voice demanded from behind them, having not missed their reactions.

Unable to refuse their Alpha's command, Jarold held out his hand for Kathrine and the same stinging sensation touched them both.

"Allow me to introduce the next Luna and the mate of my heirs, Kathrine Brown." Alpha Jackson called out for the crowd to hear.

My fated mate is the son of the murder who smashed my family and life.
I need to revenge.

“You,”He leered and smirked at us. “Both of you. Get up.”
I shook my head, shuddering, “Please… Please don’t–”
He grabbed me by my arm and dragged me up to my feet.
He grabbed Angelia with his other hand and proceeded to drag us towards the door.
Angelia had gone all but silent as she was pulled along like a ragdoll. Her eyes seemed glazed over.
My heart raced.
“P-Please. I can give you gems! Jewelry! What about lunar flowers? We have them all. If you’d just take us back–”
“How are you going to bargain with something that’s not yours anymore?” He scoffed, “Move it. The boss doesn’t like to be kept waiting.”
Tears streamed down my face. We were brought out of the dungeon into another section that had been turned into a room.
There were no windows and the scent of sweat and tears filled the air.
The man who brought us there shoved us inside and closed the door behind us as a fat, whale of a man turned towards us.
I could tell by his stature and his scent that he was either human or his wolf was weak.
He chuckled and licked his lips as he approached. He stopped at me first, grabbing my chin and leaning close to take a deep breath of my scent. He chuckled as I recoiled and shuddered in disgust.
Then, he stopped at Angelia, tracing a hand over her cheek.
He chuckled and stepped back, “I love the obedient ones… Welcome girls, to my dungeon. You will call me, Dan.”

"I wonder how it would feel to fuck a hybrid." Liam whispered now leaning into her neck. "-don't tell me you're a virgin. A sexy little thing like you?"

Xavier moved her hands up to his throat and chuckled. "Don't hide it, that beast within you. I want you to unleash it onto me. I want you... to dominate me... and my body."

Sebastian placed a cold and soft hand against the side of her cheek before placing his lips on her." Now, if you keep on being a good girl, then I will continue rewarding you, understand?"

Demetri placed his delicate fingers underneath my chin, making me look into his gentle blue eyes. "Perhaps this is sudden but, mate, could I perhaps make it up to you with a kiss?"


A brutal game of slaughter, no, a macabre massacre- this was what Phoenix Ackerman, daughter of the great Alpha Denzell, faced the moment she revealed that she was not only a hybrid, but the last vampire royal in existence. Now, she has no choice but to fight for the one thing owed to her, the one thing that could finally end the centuries-old feud between vampires and werewolves alike. The throne to the Vampire Kingdom. To attain the throne, however, Phoenix must compete against a number of pureblood vampire nobles in the deadliest game ever created in vampire history- the Game of Successio.

But the Game of Successio is not the only cruel game Phoenix will need to face, as she finds herself in the middle of the world’s greatest love battle between the four men entrusted in keeping her safe and away from the history-altering truth of her real identity: Sebastian Dragović, Liam Howard, Xavier Chase and Demetri Forbes. It is a battle a millennium in the making, and aside from the Game of Successio, it is one of the greatest challenges Phoenix is yet to face.

My fated mate is the son of the murder who smashed my family and life.
I was sold to a brothel and my body was turned into a commodity.
And my sister, she's still being raped by those pedophiles, over and over, over and over.
I need to revenge.

“Showtime, ladies!”
I rolled my shoulder and walked to the back of the line. There were ten of us. Each of us dressed in a sparkling evening gown, ready to introduce ourselves to the crowd. I barely listened to the women ahead of me.
Then, it was my turn. I took a deep breath and lifted my head as the woman ahead of me stepped aside. The stage light was so bright my eyes burned, but I kept my eyes open, scanning the VIP room windows for the man in question.
There, sitting in the front row of the VIP room just to the right of the stage, was Matt Wallber, surrounded by various women. His collar was undone and he wore what looked to be a deconstructed tuxedo. His hair was raked and a bit windswept as if he had been running his hand through it.
“We’ll open the bidding now!”
A few breaths passed before the screen lit up.
Round 1 Bidding Open.
I watched my headshot shoot ahead of the other nine and over the blue line that signified my requested starting bid.
Someone had bid on me in the first round well over my opening bid.
My heart leaped.
Had he taken the bait so soon?

She doesn't want a mate, all she wants is to live her life on her own terms. What will happen when she is mated to not one, or two, but three powerful male. A vampire King, An Alpha and a Demon Prince.

Will she be able to accept the three of them? Or will she chose one?

What is the reason behind the three mates?

Mates of Auroville is a collection of two stories.
Part one of the story (Despicable Mate) revolves around Kiara and Kevin.
Kiara is turned into a poisonous wolf by an evil witch. She is planted as the mate of Kevin, the future alpha of a powerful pack. Unfortunately, he turns out to be Kiara's, real mate.
She has to struggle to keep him away from herself. A single kiss from her can be fatal to him. She does everything she can to make Kevin hate her.
Kevin on the other hand is brought up to honor the wish of the moon goddess. He keeps forgiving Kiara for everything she does. How long can this continue? Will he ever find out the truth or will he end up rejecting Kiara?
PART TWO of the book (Blind Mate) revolves around Kiara's brother Nivaan: a blind Alpha and Emilia: a stubborn, arrogant girl.
Emilia is a popular high school girl. She is arrogant and likes to show off. When her mate turns out to be blind, she is conflicted. Will she accept her mate, or will her ego destroy their relationship even before he begins?

Brianne has worked at The Bar for just over a year. She’s damn good at her job—and not afraid to keep rowdy patrons in line with a well-placed kick to the ass.
Her boss, Allen, is a friend. Nothing more. Because Brianne has one rule: you don’t date the boss.
Too bad her boss isn’t just a boss.
He’s the Alpha of the local werewolf pack. And his closest ally? The leader of the vampire clan.
Now they’re both claiming she’s their mate.
With hunters closing in, supernatural factions clashing, and a growing target on her back, Brianne is caught in the middle of a deadly turf war she never asked for.
Too many enemies. Too many secrets. And way too many people trying to kill her.
Good thing they underestimated her.
Because Brianne doesn’t run from a fight—
she ends it.

“Before we get on with our business, there’s a bit of a paperwork you’d need to sign,” Damon said suddenly. He took out a piece of paper and pushed it towards Violet.

“What’s this?” she asked.

“A written agreement for the price of our sale,” Damon replied. He said it so calmly and so nonchalantly, like he wasn’t buying a girl’s virginity for one million dollars.

Violet swallowed hard and her eyes began to glaze over the words on that paper. The agreement was pretty self-explanatory. It basically stated that she’d agree to this sale of her virginity for the aforementioned price and that their signatures would seal the deal. Damon already signed his part and hers was left blank.

Violet looked up to see Damon handing her a pen. She came into this room with the thought of backing out, but after reading the document, Violet had another change of heart. It was one million dollars. This was more money than she could ever see in her lifetime. One night compared to that would be minuscule. One could even argue that it was a bargain. So before she could change her mind again, Violet took the pen from Damon’s hand and signed her name on the dotted line. Right as the clock struck midnight that day, Violet Rose Carvey had just signed a deal with Damon Van Zandt, the devil in the flesh.

"P... please, don't do this" I muttered up the courage to speak this words. My voice pleading and my eyes desperate to get to him. " I can't wait any longer. You don't know how bad I want you, even your tears turns me on" His face came closer to me. I could feel his warmth breath on my face, his words send chill down my body.

☆☆☆

When a dangerous captor sets his sight on a young girl and he knew he needs to have her even if it means taking her against her will .

I am already married, but a single dad Alpha said I am his mate

I am Salara, a housewife who keeps suffering mental abuse from my husband Henry for 5 years. I almost left him once four years ago, but then I found out I was pregnant and I felt trapped in a marriage that I am miserable in.

Tonight, I was preparing dinner for Henry’s business partner Derrick.

He stands at least half a foot taller than Henry and his dark looks are more appealing to me than Henry’s lighter ones. His black hair is cut short along the bottom with curls gracing the top in the most alluring way.

And his eyes…never have I seen this shade of green in anyone’s eyes. I find myself getting lost in the depths of them as he looks at me hungrily. His well-defined chest stretches his black t-shirt perfectly over his muscular body, making my mouth water as I stare at him.

“Derrick-” Henry interrupts our silent appraisal, disapproval in his voice. “This is my wife Sa-” A growl rumbles out of Derrick’s chest, interrupting Henry as he introduces me to our guest.

I watch in avid fascination as his face begins to contort, his mouth and nose fusing together until there is a snout in its place, large canines protruding from his lips as he growls over at Henry. Horror fills Henry’s face as he stares at Derrick, trying to grasp what is happening.

“Mate,” Derrick growls at Henry, moving to take a step towards him, causing Henry to take a step back in fear.

"Look how wet you are," he roughly flipped me over, his fingers cruelly invading my pussy. "Your cunt is desperate for it, isn't it? You were born to be fucked by me, dear sister."

His thick cock thrust into me mercilessly. My walls stretched forcefully, pain and pleasure intertwining.

"Fuck... it's too big!" I screamed, gripping the sheets as I felt each savage thrust. "Alexander... please..."

"Call me brother," his teeth bit down hard on my neck. "Say you're my Omega."

When Omega wolf Erin loses her job for refusing her boss's harassment, a chance encounter in an alley leads to a night of passion with powerful Alpha Alexander. In a cruel twist of fate, she discovers her one-night stand is not only the heir to the Black Stone pack but also her stepbrother.

Caught in a whirlwind of pack politics, Erin is torn between Alexander's almost manic possessiveness and the cold machinations of his betrothed and her family. As the mystery of her origins unfolds, a shocking secret of blood vengeance rises to the surface.

In this forbidden affair where lust and hatred intertwine, where will their path lead?

I loved her before I knew who she was.
Now I hate her with every breath.

She is the daughter of my sworn enemy the Vampire King who betrayed me for centuries. To seal a fragile peace, she was sacrificed to me, a pawn in a war that will never truly end.

I dragged her to Hell, determined to shatter her spirit. I destroyed the one she cherished most, ensuring her broken heart would belong only to me.

But Selena is not just a sacrifice.

She is half-human, half-vampire… an outcast born of two worlds yet claimed by none. She doesn’t yield. She doesn’t break. She burns.

And in defying me, she may bring Hell itself to its knees.

The war between us is inevitable. The bond between us is undeniable.

And she is mine.

She could feel the pain slowly overcoming her soul. The agony, the grief, taking over all that she once thought was alive in her. She felt so empty that she was sure her whole body will echo if someone was to shake her. But she stood, rigid as though a hundred years old tree, clinging onto the only thing that made her alive; her eyeglasses.

Through those glasses, she had seen things she had wished she could erase. She had hated the things she once loved, places she once cherished and the man she grew up to love.

It didn’t matter who he was to her, his role in her life or even the title he possessed. She was going to take revenge, she was going to make him regret, she was going to make her father cry right before her eyes!

But what if he chose to add more pain to her aching wounds? The day he declared her married to a gateman, the strings left attaching her with him were forcefully cut off. And she was certain even if it would take her till eternity, so long as she stayed married to the gateman, her father would never know what happiness felt like!

“Why did you bend over, Maverick?”
 
“Because you told me to, asshle.”
 
“I’m so tempted to fck you right now. You’re the most exquisite woman I’ve ever been with, the only beautiful thing I see and have.”
 
“Then what are you waiting for? Just punish me already!”


MAVERICK

As a working college student, I struggle to make ends meet until a stranger approaches me with a proposal—to be his employer’s wife for an enormous sum of money.

Knowing the cash will help me pay my grandmother’s medical bills, I accept the offer with a demand—just a marriage of convenience, no intimacy.

It’s too late to realize I’m marrying the charming and gorgeous to a fault, young Mr. Winston. And there’s this instant fire between us despite my inhibitions.

Things get more complicated when our sham marriage is put to the test by his father, who threatens to expose my dirty little secret.


LAKE

Being a Braddson-Winston heir is sometimes a curse. My father is a real SOB and a pain in my ass. He makes one outrageous demand for me to secure the CEO seat in the company—marriage.

So I found a perfect bride— Maverick Bates II, who is beautiful but in a dire financial situation. I only ask two things. We stay MBA and keep things purely business until the contract ends. As simple as that.

It was meant to be a straightforward deal, but each day I get to know her, my position is not the only thing at stake but also my heart.

I realize I can’t let her go even if she’s the daughter of the ruthless don of Sicilianos.

He then gets into a bet with her. In six months, he'll make her fall for him. However, there is a condition. For that six months, they have to live as a married couple.

But who falls for who?

Elena Langston,” he said, his voice like smoke and secrets, “I’m Dante Virello. And I’m here to claim what was promised to me.”

Her breath caught. “I—I don’t know you.”

“No,Not yet honey” he said. “But you will.”


Dante Virello doesn’t forgive.
He doesn’t forget.
And he always collects what he’s owed.

Power is his weapon. Fear is his currency. Revenge is the only language he speaks until Elena walks into his world and rewrites every rule he’s ever lived by.

She’s soft where he’s ruthless.
Tempting where he’s lethal.
And every breath she takes pulls him deeper into a hunger he can’t control.

She should be untouchable.
She should be off-limits.
She belongs to the man who destroyed him.

But Dante has never wanted what was easy.

Her voice drives him mad.
Her body becomes his weakness.
And once he tastes her, obsession replaces vengeance.

Blood will be spilled.
Secrets will burn.
And Dante will take what he wants again and again until the world knows one truth:
Elena was never meant to be saved.
She was meant to be claimed.

This isn’t love.
This is possession.

"The bride is here" Someone shouted and he calmed down a bit, he just want to get this over with.

He turned to stare at his bride and was shocked to see another face, dressed as his bride walking towards the altar.

The lady has blond hair and baby blue eyes, a straight nose and a rosebud mouth that was twitching nervously.

He stared at his friend who was standing beside him, his gaze demanding for an explanation but he only shrugged, his gaze portrayed that he doesn't have a clue about what's going on.

She smiled nervously when she got to where he was standing.

"Hello, you must be the groom, my name is Isabella. Joana's cousin and I am your bride "

Daniel arched a brow at her before turning back to the priest, "let's begin"........


"Boss, you have to see this video, it is a video of your wife with another man and the worst is that it is uploaded on an adult site".
