“I told you before, you’re mine! You’ll marry me and bear my children and you’ll be my property until the day one of us dies!” He growled, running out of patience.
“Am I to be your possession, your prisoner?” She glared at him with all her might.
“Call it as you wish! You have nowhere to escape to!” He declared before pulling her into his lap, holding her tightly in his arms.
He crashed his lips against hers, forcing his tongue in her mouth. Against her will, her body loosened in response, she lost the ability to breathe. She could not hear, she could not see, she could not feel anything else, except Edmund taking her mouth like a drowning man in need of oxygen.
‘Isabella is fucking mine! My woman! Nothing is going to change that!’

Annie always believed that finding her mate would bring her happiness. But fate had other plans. The night she was supposed to be claimed by her destined mate, he rejected her—for her own sister. The betrayal shattered her, leaving her wolf weakened and her spirit broken. With no strength left to fight, Annie was cast aside, forced to leave behind everything she once knew.

Alone and struggling without her wolf, Annie has no choice but to seek help from a neighboring pack—one that has always been at odds with her own. There, she meets Riley, the powerful and enigmatic Alpha, who takes an unexpected interest in her. From the moment he lays eyes on Annie, he feels an undeniable pull toward her, a connection so strong it shakes him to his core.

But Annie has lost all faith in mates and love. Every kind word, every lingering touch, and every stolen glance from Riley makes her heart ache with memories of the past. She refuses to be seen as a tool or a prize ever again.

Riley, however, sees beyond her pain. He doesn’t just want her because of the bond—they haven’t even confirmed it yet. He wants her for who she is, for the fire she tries so hard to hide. He wants to show her that not all mates bring pain, that love doesn’t have to be a weakness.

“I want to know what you have on under that skirt?”
“Nothing, master,”
“What would you like the master to do with you tonight?” He touched her chin.
“Whatever the master wants,” she answers and then looks back to the floor.
“Are you really up for anything?” He asked her.
“Yes, Master. I want to please you,”

But Isabella didn't know that Kade wasn't a guy who honored boundaries. He didn't just want her for a month, he wanted to own her. To mark her. To make her forget who she was before he came into the picture.
"You're mine to touch, no one else's," he growled, his voice dark and commanding, igniting a fire she'd never felt before.
What began as a desperate deal soon turned into a dangerous obsession. Will Isabella lose her heart to a monster who only takes, or will she find the strength to refuse the one man who refuses to let her go?

“This was never just a contract, sweetheart,” Emerson murmured, slowly dragging his thumb across my bottom lip.

I furrowed my brows in confusion. What was he talking about? “Why pretend then?” I could barely hear my own voice above my whisper. “Why act like it is?”

His mouth hovered a breath from mine. “Because if I touch you the way I want to,” he said quietly, “you better believe I'm never letting you walk away.”

A secret that is quite frankly, the great divide between life and death.

"Shit, the fucking blonde has a dirty secret that no one knows about. In that case, she will be trapped in our webs, in between exposing her or making her dance to our tune." He grins with mischief.

"Fucking fun, Sebastian." Weaver licks off the chocolate from his finger and jumps on his feet like a cat who's ready to play.

"What do we plan to do with her, actually?" Harper, who's been typing away on his phone, asks a question like he's been absent.

"Play with her. Punish her. Torment her. The sky is the limit." Sebastian smiles cruelly.

The three powerful Alphas are the most handsome and popular in school; even though they were newly transferred students, it didn't take them up to three days to earn the entire school's attention.

They had the most unrealistic beauty; it's difficult to ignore them, but when a girl ignored them for the first time in their history of existence, it became chaotic like the blast eruption of a volcano.

They were so determined to clip her wings and make her crumble before them, leading to their discovering a secret about her that was spilled by her best friend.

On her 18th birthday, Emily faced betrayal. Her boyfriend turned out to be her sister’s mate. Not only did her father demand that she forgive her sister and her boyfriend’s betrayal, but he also asked her to preside over their wedding.
However, at the wedding, she met Prince Leon. He claimed that she was his mate. The prince had another engagement with another woman.
Emily’s best friend Lola told her that the best way to get the prince was to tie him to a bed.
"My sweet Emily, you only belong to me." Leon whispered on the bed.

I was always a nobody in the pack, the orphan everyone tolerated but never truly accepted. Kian was the only person who made me feel different, like I belonged somewhere. He was my best friend, my safe haven, and secretly, my greatest love. On the night he became Alpha, a moment of passion made me believe that maybe, just maybe, there could be a future for us.

But everything fell apart the next day when he found his fated mate and chose her as Luna. My heart was shattered. There was no reason to stay anymore. I left the pack that same day, vowing never to look back.

In the human world, I rebuilt my life. I became a successful doctor and raised the three miracles Kian never knew existed—our children. I thought the past was buried, that Kian would never be a part of my life again.

Until he came back. Betrayed by his Luna and broken, he sought me out, demanding that I return to the pack to help him. I refused. I owed him nothing.

But Kian didn’t take no for an answer. He had me kidnapped and brought back to the pack I had sworn never to return to. Now, he says I’m his second-chance mate. But I can’t feel the bond. Years of wolfsbane erased that connection, leaving only the scars of the past.

He says he’s changed. That he wants me and the family I built on my own. But how can I trust the Alpha who destroyed me? And how can I give up the life I fought so hard to build?

Until fate twists.
The vampire prince, Dorian, chooses her—the one girl everyone else rejected.
And from that moment on, Aria’s world turns upside down.

Julian. With a feral growl, he appeared out of nowhere, tackling the rogue to the ground. His movements were quick and lethal, and within moments, the rogue was dead. “Julian!” I cried, rushing to him as he staggered to his feet. But before I could reach him, his legs gave out, and he collapsed to the floor. Blood pooled beneath him, staining his shirt. “No, no, no!” I dropped to my knees beside him, my hands hovering uselessly over his wounds. “Julian, stay with me!” His eyes fluttered open, and he gave me a weak smile. “Laura,” he murmured, his voice barely audible.

I was a billionaire's canary. Never asked for it — but every time I slept with him, he paid another chunk of my mom's medical bills. Later he made me his secretary, and stupidly, I thought we'd built something real. Turns out I was wrong. He drained my entire savings to buy his mistress a $500K necklace. "What do you mean, your money?" he sneered. "Every penny came from me." I begged. He laughed. Then the hospital called: Mom didn't make it. That's when I stopped being anyone's canary — and started billing him back, in full.

"You," he growled, glaring at me with hatred in his eyes even as he pinned me to the wall, obstructing my airflow. "I'm going to enjoy breaking you."

"I'd like to see you try, Alpha." I spat at him, my voice filled with defiance.

For as long as Elara Grephat could remember, she was the loyal shadow to Alpha Alexander of the Nightshade Pack. As his fated mate, she bled for him, built his empire, and loved him with a devotion that should have been unbreakable. But in the advanced, cutthroat world of the great packs, loyalty is a cheap currency.
Accused of a betrayal she didn’t commit, Elara’s world shatters when Alexander—the man who swore to protect her—delivers a soul-crushing rejection and a slap that echoes through the pack lands. Stripped of her title as Alpha Heiress, she isn't just exiled; she is sold to the enemy.
Her destination? The Bloodfang Pack. A fortress of ruthless warriors led by three brothers whose names are whispered like a death sentence: Kieran, the cold King; Silas, the calculating strategist; and Victor, the volatile Alpha who hates the very word "love."
To Alexander, she was a traitor to be discarded. To the Bloodfang brothers, she was supposed to be a slave to be broken. But they see what Alexander was too blind to notice. They see the fire of a true Alpha Heiress, and their wolves recognize a bond that defies every law of nature. As the brothers’ icy hatred thaws into a lethal, possessive desire, Elara must decide if she can trust the "monsters" who saved her.
The war is coming, and Alexander wants his "property" back. But as he arrives to reclaim her, he realizes one terrifying truth: He didn’t just sell his mate... he gave the enemy the only woman capable of destroying him.

"I don't understand it myself, but I know you feel the same way," I said. There was no other way to say what needed to be said.
We were feeling something we couldn't explain; we were not mates, but there was a strange, strong attraction between us.
"W-what are you talking about?" She swallowed nervously, and I edged closer to her.
"This," I smirked, snaked my arms around her waist, and pulled her closer to me. Her breathing changed instantly, and her cheeks flooded with color; damn, I could even start to smell her scent.
She was aroused.

Lexi has an accident two days after she turns sixteen when she goes on a trip, but miraculously she survives the accident with no memory of that night, except a big mark that seems to have appeared out of nowhere on her neck.
Axel’s pack gets attacked by rogues from different packs who have bound themselves by blood and sworn an oath to destroy the remaining wolf packs.
One night his sister gets brutally killed and he is saved by a hair's breadth. he comes in contact with a dying human and he does not think twice before he saves her in the only possible way, which was to mark her and she becomes his, even though she doesn't realize it yet…

The dress she wore looked innocent at first glance. Soft cream silk, thin straps, short enough to reveal the smooth length of her legs. But as she moved, the slits at the sides shifted apart, exposing flashes of skin along the curve of her thighs and hips. My jaw tightened with an overwhelming desire. She noticed exactly where my eyes had gone. Her gaze lifted slowly to mine, and for a brief second I caught something dangerous there. Annoyance. And desire too. It flickered across her face before she turned away from me. Why did she have to pretend that she didn't want me as much as I wanted her too?

“I don't like butterflies, ” I said quietly.

Her brows furrowed slightly. “Why?”

“A butterfly flies away eventually.” My grip around her waist tightened. "Is that your plan?"

Her eyes returned to mine. “And if it is?”

“Wrong answer. You can't fly away.”

I lowered my second hand from her neck to her waist slowly. The silk bunched beneath my fingers. Gods. She felt soft everywhere, making my control thin dangerously.

“We don’t need a ceremony,” I murmured against her skin.

“Silas…” that was her cry for help, for reasoning. But it was too late. All I heard was her begging me to mark her.

My wolf surged immediately. I kissed the side of her neck again, slower this time, letting my mouth linger against her pulse. I could feel how fast her heart was beating now. The need to claim her was already unbearable. I tightened my arms around her as the mark settled beneath her skin. My breathing turned rough instantly from the force of it. The feeling was almost overwhelming. Her knees nearly buckled beneath her afterward. I caught her immediately. Her fingers clutched my shirt tightly while she tried to steady herself. Then slowly, she lifted trembling fingers toward her neck.

“What...?” she whispered.

I felt no regret for claiming her. She would be mine. Forever.
Fate may have chosen Silas for Alexa but somewhere in the shadows, someone is watching. Someone who believes Alexa stole the life that should have been hers. And she'll do whatever it takes to take it back. Even if it means destroying Alexa in the process.

Ivy Hayes has one dream: escape to the Solaris Sanctuary where sunlight keeps vampires away forever. But when she encounters her dying high school classmate Lucien Sinclair at the blood lodge, everything shatters.

Lucien is now a vampire, poisoned by silver and descending into madness. His brother Valerius—the ruthless head of the Blackwood family—kidnaps Ivy and drags her into his estate. Her scent is the only thing keeping Lucien sane. She's not a nurse. She's a living sedative, monitored and controlled, her body no longer her own.

Valerius underwent an ancient ritual that severed his empathy. To him, Ivy is just another possession to manage. He controls her every movement, destroys her escape routes, and tightens his grip until she's utterly trapped. But his cold precision hides something far more dangerous—a dark obsession that hungers for more than obedience.

While caring for Lucien, Ivy finds unexpected tenderness with the gentle vampire who still remembers her. But when Valerius corners her in shadowed hallways, his touch blurs the line between punishment and twisted desire.

Then Seraphina arrives—Valerius's fiancée and the woman who once shattered Lucien's heart. Her return ignites a vicious war between brothers, with Ivy trapped at the center.

One vampire offers her broken tenderness. One demands absolute surrender. One wants her destroyed.

Can Ivy reclaim her freedom—or will she discover that some chains are forged with blood, desire, and darkness?

She knew doom was next to her when she gets dragged away by the hot but scary Mafia lord. Laurel is forced to live with Silas and must stop herself from falling for his hot, sinister smile.

“Crawl to me, little kitten…”
His voice is cold and deep, wrapping around me like chains.
I came to Italy for freedom. A girls’ trip. Wine, laughter, and sunlit streets. I never imagined one drunken night would become the end of my old life.
Because that night, I am taken by the Italian mafia.
By him.
Alessandro Vercelli. A man in a charcoal Armani suit with tattoos on his knuckles and danger in his eyes. He does not kidnap me for money. He kidnaps me for revenge.
My father refused his alliance.
So Alessandro marries me instead.
By morning, my blood is mixed with his in a ritual older than mercy. A ring stained red becomes proof that I belong to the man who stole my future.
“Now your father doesn’t have a choice.”
I am trapped inside a palace that feels like a prison, surrounded by silk dresses, armed men, and whispered threats. Alessandro is ruthless, controlling, and terrifyingly protective. He swears loyalty to me in blood and promises to keep me safe, even as he destroys everything I once was.
I hate him.
I fear him.
And I don’t understand why my heart trembles when he looks at me.
Every touch feels like a threat. Every word sounds like a vow. Every night is a war between escape and surrender.
I am Mia Vercelli.
And in his world, love is not soft.
It is possession.
It is violence.
It is fate sealed in blood.
This is the story of how I was kidnapped by the mafia…
and forced to become the wife of the man who might ruin me or protect me until death.
Because once Alessandro Vercelli chooses you,
there is no running, it's a one way ticket to hell.
Now he demands a hier.

"There's something different about you. Something that makes you..." Sebastian trails off, like he can't find the right words.
"Special," Logan finishes, his voice rough.
"Unique," Zane adds softly.
"You belong to us. Like we belong to you."
Sebastian, Logan, and Zane were the last people I expected to see through my disguise.
I only wanted one thing: to play hockey.
But after rejecting Alpha Marcus Blackwood's obsessive claim, I was forced to leave London and disappear. To protect myself, I cut my hair, changed my name, and entered Crescent Moon Academy as Frederick Sterling, a boy chasing his dream on the legendary Wolves hockey team.
No one could know the truth.
Especially not the three powerful Alphas whose wolves had already sensed that something about me was different.
They weren't just my teammates. They were predators, and somehow, they were bound to me.
As Marcus closes in and someone threatens to expose my secret, I have to protect the identity I built while fighting against a bond I can't understand.
Because when they discover that the boy they trusted is actually their mate, will they tame my fire, or will I burn them all?

"You aren't pure enough to carry my heir."
Damian only needs one thing: an heir.
Not love. Not a wife. Just a child to secure his inheritance.
Marriage? Off the table.
Love? A distraction.
And Vanessa, his friend with benefits--is too impure in his eyes to be the mother of his child.
Evelyn, on the other hand, is beautiful, innocent, and desperate enough to sign a contract saying she'll carry his child... The natural way.
Everything is going according to plan--until Vanessa starts showing up at social events, claiming she's pregnant too.
With Damian's child.
Now, two women are carrying his heir.
One is fighting for love.
The other is fighting to win.
And Damian?
He's about to discover that some deals come with unexpected consequences.
The Billionaire's Virgin Surrogate is a sizzling slow-burn billionaire romance filled with passion, betrayal, and a dangerous game of hearts--
where trust is fragile, and love cuts the deepest.

His smirk deepened and he took another step toward me. “I want to fuck you.” His voice dripped lower, “As a dancer, you should be used to this by now.”

I shook my head quickly, panic rising in my chest. “Yes, I do know. I mean, that’s what I’m meant for.”

“Now, let’s get down to business, shall we?” He said, stepping closer. “I don’t have all night.”

Before I could part my lips to answer, his hand gripped my thigh and lifted it. The fabric of my dress bunched up, exposing the fine lace of my panties. I gasped, trying to move away from him, but his other hand moved to the back of my neck, holding me in place.

His mouth crashed into mine, claiming my lips with a hunger that left me breathless. Suddenly, I felt his hand slip under the elastic of my panties, his finger grazing my sensitive flesh.

I whimpered into the kiss, trying to resist, but the sensation was too overwhelming. He deepened the kiss, his tongue exploring my mouth as his finger moved further, sliding inside me with ease.

I moaned in protest, the sudden intrusion causing a sharp pain as he broke the kiss, smiling wickedly. “Shhh…” he murmured, the sound sending a shiver down my spine.

He knelt, his hand still holding my leg up. “I’m going to need you to open those thighs for me,” he ordered, his tone dark and mocking all at once.

They sold me to pay a debt. To a monstrous mafia lord. So I walked into a club and gave my body to a stranger first. My choice. My terms.

That stranger was beautiful. Dangerous. He saw the fire in me and called it magnificent. For one night, he was my sanctuary.

Turns out, my sanctuary has a name: Matteo. And he’s not some random man. He’s the son of the monster I’m supposed to marry. He offers me his protection, his understanding, his searing touch in the shadows. I hate him. I want him. I’m falling for him. We start an affair while hiding from his father.

Here’s the kicker: there is no monster. There’s only him.

Matteo is the Don. The debt, the fear, the wedding, was all his game. He lied to cage me. He played a role to break me. He thought he could own me.

He thought wrong.

Now he’s learning the truth: you shouldn’t trap a woman who’s already been forged in fire. You shouldn’t lie to someone who can see the cracks in every painted surface. And you definitely shouldn’t fall in love with the queen you tried to make a pawn.
The marriage is real. The war is on. And this time, I’m writing the rules.

He had a heart covered with ice, but for her, he'd burn himself to ashes... and the world under her feet.


Beckett Clainfer wanted to find his parent's murderer. With that in mind, he endured every pain for the pleasure that's about to come - Reputation, wealth, and a drug den that suffices his needs and luxuries.
However, when Vivianne entered his life, everything went chaotic. He sinfully fell in love with her when he should have never been involved with her in the first place... Especially when she wanted him dead more than anyone else.
He's willing to do anything to save her, and he was willing to cross the line as he joined Foedus Corporation in Agrianthropos City for her.
But could he find salvation in Hell?


Vivianne Allamino had been suffering throughout her life. Being forced to take over their illegal family business in leverage to her mother's safety scared the shit out of her. Since childhood, she was trained... and was controlled like a mere puppet.
And now, she was done tolerating all this shit. She just wanted everything to end.
Now, she tried to kill him.
But the cold-hearted billionaire wanted to save her.
Could he?

Angelo loved her from the very first moment he laid eyes on her. She didn't know who he was and what he did in his past and he loved it that way .It was his past and he wanted her not just for fun but for keeps. If only she stopped running away from him...Cleo didn't want to catch feelings for a guy who was out of her league . He had everything sussed out and she didn't or so she thought . Running was always a safe option but fate had other plans.

Twenty-year-old Milan Atlantici thought her life had already hit rock bottom.

A terminal stomach cancer diagnosis, her fiancé tangled up with the returning "true heiress," her identity, her love, her health——everything she thought mattered shattered in the same season.

If it's already destroyed, then let it burn all the way down.

Pushed by her best friend Heidi, Milan walked into a high-end nightclub and asked for the one man they said was impossible to get——Sorensen.

She thought he was a male escort.

He was actually a crime lord who made the entire underworld tremble——a dangerous man who had grown tired of the human world's power and glory, searching for some reason to keep existing.

But the more dangerous secret was hidden beneath his skin——he wasn't human. He was a dragon.

Strange things started from the very first touch. Whenever Sorensen came close, the stomach pain that had tormented Milan for so long would quietly recede. She didn't know why. She only knew that he made her feel better——so she made a shameless decision. She threw down eight thousand dollars to rent a bed in his shared apartment and planted herself at his side.

She wanted to fall. She wanted to burn. She wanted to live recklessly before death came to collect her.

But Sorensen kept stepping in her way, watching her with those eyes calm as a bottomless abyss, pulling her back from her own hands every single time.

She told herself it was just pity.

Until the night Sorensen pushed inside her——and something between them snapped into place, a connection that no human language had words for. Her cancer cells began to retreat. Her body began to heal. And her heart began to beat for a dragon.

But just as she realized she had fallen in love with something that wasn't human, another gaze emerged from the shadows.

The current head of the Atlantici family——her uncle, Kaeya. A vampire with an endless lifespan and an obsessive soul. His feelings for Milan were suffocatingly real and dangerously consuming. She once stumbled upon him using her underwear to pleasure himself——that sight sent ice down her spine, and for the first time made her understand just how deep this man's fixation on her truly ran.

A dragon. A vampire. And a human girl with half a life left, still burning as defiantly as she could.

Love and possession. Salvation and ruin. A triangle that tears everything apart at the seams.

In the end——who will be the one left standing?

Madison and her half-sister Zoey are both Beta's daughters, yet their lives are worlds apart. Always overlooked, Madison clings to the hope of her fated mate. But at their engagement party, after her fiancé runs to Zoey, her world shifts when she locks eyes with a stranger later. An profound connection sparks between them that dwarfs what she feels for her fiancé. Betray or confess. What will Madison choose to do?

My fingers move to his shaft, which is hard and hot to the touch. It’s been more than a while since I was with anyone – since I felt this desire for a man. He groans and finds my lips again, but this time the kiss is less gentle.
I pulled back, meeting his still gaze.
“Can I taste it?” I asked, my face warm.
He chuckles, nodding. I lick my way from his mouth through his chest and stomach muscles and down still.


Finding out I spent the night with my new boss is all types of wrong.

A man like Maxwell Thatcher is the last person I expect to save me from a disaster date.
Especially when he pretends to be someone I least expect.
He’s ready to be anyone I need him to be when I’m in a pinch.
And to return the favor, I’m willing to do anything he wants.
It was supposed to be one night, but who knew we’d meet again sooner than expected.
This familiar stranger is my company's new CEO.
And who knew his secrets could be my salvation?

In the year 2387, humanity has evolved beyond their biological limits. After colonizing various planets and space stations, augmentation technology and genetic engineering have become commonplace. Humans are no longer satisfied with their natural bodies.

Society is divided into castes based on the level of genetic perfection and augmentation they possess. Commanders sit at the top of the hierarchy – humans with the best DNA modifications and the most advanced augmentations. They lead colonies with absolute power. Below them are the Beta-Engineers, the middle caste with standard augmentations who manage and maintain the colony's technology.

Neural-link is the standard way of life, an implant in the brain that connects all humans in a digital network. Some even enhance their bodies with bionic hair, synthetic organs, and various other advanced implants.

However, amidst this obsession with perfection, there are still a few humans who are nearly pure – almost without genetic modifications and with minimal augmentation. They are considered defective and inferior. Fiora Starfire is one of them, the daughter of a Beta-Engineer family, ironically the one closest to the original form of humanity.

The Genetic Matching Night is an annual ritual where Central AI helps match individuals with the highest DNA compatibility. For most, it is an opportunity to elevate their family’s genetic status. But for Fiora, tonight may reveal something far greater than just a matter of social status. What will happen?

I am Vera, forced to marry the ruthless mob boss Viktor Quinn.

Years of one-sided devotion have finally extinguished the love I once held for him.

"You will never be worthy of carrying my child," he once vowed. If he discovered I was pregnant, he would personally ensure I aborted it.

But I was already months along.

One night, an assassin cornered me in a dark alley: "I'm here to take your life and your child's!"

I barely escaped. But the question haunted me—who sent him? Was it Viktor?

An accidental flight change saved me from a plane crash that killed everyone on board.

To the world, Vera Quinn died in that disaster.

Viktor went mad searching for my body.

Six years later, I've rebuilt my life as Maya Pierce, a renowned jewelry designer—and a mother.

Then I was kidnapped.

One day, I was mysteriously kidnapped.

When the hood was ripped off my head, I froze.

The person standing before me made my heart stop.

The one behind all of this turned out to be...
