Though disguised as family duty, Roxanne knows the truth: she is nothing more than a solution to their problem, a sacrifice to preserve a legacy.

Yet it is not her uncle’s cold, watchful eyes that linger in her thoughts, it is his wife. Alexandra Romanov, with her graceful and composed demeanor, effortlessly embraces privilege, yet a quiet, aching loneliness lurks beneath her poise.

Unsure how to treat a teenage girl, unsure even how to be a mother, Alexandra turns to bedtime stories, whispered tales meant to comfort a frightened child. But in the stillness of the night, the stories deepen into something far more dangerous: unspoken desires, tender confessions, and an intimacy neither woman dares name.

As Roxanne struggles with her role as pawn in her uncle’s scheme, she finds herself bound to the one person she was meant to call stepmother. Love blooms in shadows, hidden in hushed words and stolen touches, but in a household ruled by control and appearances, every moment of tenderness risks exposure.

Trapped between duty, desire, and her longing for freedom, Roxanne must decide whether her “bedtime story” with Alexandra will remain a secret dream or spark a rebellion that could unravel the family’s fragile facade forever.

"Tell me... your...name so...that I will...have a name to...call you" I said between each Strokes

I poured my heart into Leo’s next song, only to have him mock my lyrics in front of the whole school.
The next morning, he woke up in my body… and I woke up in his.
Now he has one month in my volleyball trials to earn a scholarship spot, while I must master his guitar, voice, and stage swagger for the “Battle of the Bands” that’ll get him signed.

"If I come any closer you will die, and if I remain in this exact spot you will still die, so make your choice."

I was backed into the dark alley, the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against my temple. Marco's goons had me cornered. I thought this was the end. I thought I would die without ever knowing the truth about my mother.

Then he stepped out of the shadows. Alex Ferrini.

He didn't look worried. He looked... bored. And terrifying. "Do you not know who she belongs to?" he asked calmly, adjusting his cuffs.

Before I could blink, shots rang out. Bang! Bang! Bang! The men dropped dead around me like flies. My knees gave out, but Alex caught me, pulling me into his hard chest. He smelled of gunpowder, expensive cologne, and rage.

He gripped my hair, tilting my head back roughly. "I told you not to run," he growled, his eyes burning into mine. "You are mine, Alessia. My prisoner. My property. And tonight, I'm done playing games."

"Paula, what have I done to you to deserve so much animosity?"

"Nothing my dear sister. Just blame God who made you come in my family. You weren't meant to be born to ruin my life."

"It's mean..."

"Yes, I'm mean and it's nothing new. You know it well, and everyone knows it, I don't hide that I hate you with all my insides. I curse the day you were born, because that's when my troubles started!"

"And that restaurant outing? You told me you love me. I thought..."

"That's your problem, you believe everything."

"Paula... I'm your sister, you're supposed to protect me!"

"You're nothing for me Martina! Never try to walk my road again, 'cause next time, you won't be just raped, but I'll kill you!"


Martina didn't know why Paula, her older sister, had a visceral hatred for her. She thought she could succeed in removing this hatred until the day when Paula will push the cork very far by having her raped by a gang. As if that weren't enough, she let her mother die out of sheer wickedness. It was the straw that broke the camel's back. Since then, Martina aspires to only one thing, revenge on her sister. A merciless war will follow which will rub off on the families of the two sisters. How far are they willing to go to satisfy their thirst for revenge?

“AURORA!” My mom screamed, and I knew that I was in for it again.

It didn’t matter that it was my eighteenth birthday so soon, it didn’t matter that they had beat me until I couldn’t breathe.

Werewolf or not my parents were cruel at their nicest and monsters at their worst.

I'm praying to my good graces that I can at least have my mate find me so I can take my little sister with me to their home, but nothing is guaranteed when your parents are your abusers.

I should have been safe. My brother is the Beta to the Alpha’s but I’m still not safe.

Bleeding out on the floor. I never thought that’s how I would die but it’s better than the alternative where my sister dies for spilling juice. I smiled, staring at my big brother tearing apart our parents. How could she beg for mercy when she never gave us that same treatment?

I heard the door slam open and our three Alpha’s came into the room and I felt everything slow down. Sparks shifted in the air while they surrounded me, their eyes enticing my wolf.

“Mate.” They whispered in unison and then everything went black.
