After mating to the prince, I was brutally killed by my jealous friend during pregnancy!
Luckily I was reborn and the ugly scars on my face were gone. My husband, who never cared about me, suddenly came to my door. How dare he let my son call him Daddy？

——
“Wake up,” I willed myself desperately, to my sunken and sallow body. “You can’t die. If you die, the baby will die.”
Moon Goddess, are you here to answer my prayers?
Yes, child. But there is a reason I am here to grant you life again; your bloodline is too significant and rare to expunge.
This is why you paired Prince Aldrich and I, I muttered, realization surfacing.
You are just as important as him, even more so.
My body thirsted for water, for food and a bath and sunlight. But mostly, it thirsted for revenge at that moment.
I must return, was all I said.

I walked into Dante Marchetti’s world begging for mercy.
He offered it, beautifully packaged, brutally priced.

Two million dollars erased with a single signature.
My freedom erased with the next line

The contract is simple: my silence, my time, my body.
Now I’m bound to a man who doesn’t believe in love,
only ownership…
and I’m the possession he chose.

Dante is cold, controlled, and feared by men who fear nothing.
Yet with me, his control fractures.
His gaze turns hungry.
His voice turns sinful.
And the darkness he hides pulls me closer than his hands ever dare.

I should run.
But he’s already decided I’m his.
Not for a night.
Not for a debt.
For as long as he wants.

And Dante Marchetti never stops wanting.

Three years ago, the top assassin Stuart was falsely accused and imprisoned by his wife Selina and lover Leon. In prison, he met the retired world's top war god and inherited a mafia empire spanning three continents, overseas vaults, and private armed groups before his death.
Three years later, Stuart returned to the human world. His former wife has remarried someone else, his parents have been kicked out of the house, and his father's legs have been broken. The godfathers of the global mafia bow down and pledge allegiance, while the generals of the three major military regions kneel and pledge their loyalty.
In order to fulfill the dying wish of the old war god, Stuart took on his only regret - to search for his long lost daughter Freya. When he found this iceberg beauty in the business world, she was being pushed to a dead end by a family feud.
From now on, all the wealthy families in the state of Melbourne will tremble for him!

He wanted a servant. Fate gave him a mate.

Banished. Scarred. Broken.
Valeria was marked a traitor and thrown to the wolves—literally. Her only crime? Refusing to bow to the mate who rejected her and tried to kill her.

Now, she’s forced to serve the most feared Alpha in the realm—King Aldric, a monstrous Lycan whose rage is legend and whose mercy is a myth.

But something shifts in the shadows of his desire. A stolen glance. A trembling touch. A beast who sees something in her no one else ever did.

When a dangerous aphrodisiac pushes Aldric past the brink, Valeria becomes the object of his obsession—and perhaps the key to breaking his curse.

But in a world where love is weakness and power rules all, can a scarred servant tame a cursed King?

Or will her second chance at love become her final downfall?

“Between love and revenge, my heart became the most dangerous weapon.”

“You are certainly handsome, for a bloodthirsty vampire.” I blurted, unable to stop the words as they slipped from my lips.
“Funny, no one has ever complimented my looks in the thousands of years I have walked these halls.” He smiled, his elongated fangs almost piercing his lips.
I took a sharp breath, forcing myself not to stare at his mouth. “Then you are clearly surrounding yourself with the wrong people.”

I had only one plan: To git rid of my new stepdad. I never knew; I'd fall hard for him!

"I want to lose my virginity to you, Daddy." Viola seductively whispered to his ears.
He gulped nervously trying to control his body; " but I am your stepdad!" .

“My last day?” Ashley echoed, fear creeping into her voice. “What do you mean?”

“Look at me!" Adam shouted. "Do you think I deserve an obese woman like you?” He spat, his face contorting with disgust.

“Me?” she finally managed to whisper, her voice shaking.

Betrayed by her husband and sister on her birthday night, pregnant Ashley Smith is left for dead.

Fueled by anger and a thirst for vengeance, this dead girl is back with a new face and identity, but her quest for revenge might not be as simple as she thought, plus her ex husband likes the body of this new woman and wants her.

Will she be able to get her revenge or will she lose it all again?

And what happens when Prince charming comes her way after she'd sworn never to give love another chance?

I can’t believe it started with him. Before he was just my boyfriend’s brother, he was the guy who stole my breath the moment we met. If only he’d taken off that ring, a ring that clearly meant nothing to him.

“If only you’d made a move, things would be so different.”

I’ve tried to keep my distance, respecting boundaries, but watching him suffer in silence is driving me crazy. I steal moments with him, little glimpses and fleeting touches, moments that make it impossible to forget him.

“Why can’t I get him out of my head?”

Then, everything shatters. I leave his brother. I leave them both. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. Suddenly, he’s my client, and it’s my job to make his business a success, to keep him happy. He doesn’t know how much that last part terrifies me.

“He wants me. He’s always wanted me. Should I have been his from the start?”

Now, I’m with someone new, someone who thinks he’s my future. But his brother is back, threatening to unravel everything. The moment he reappears, I feel the tension, the unresolved longing.

“I can’t let him close again. Can I?”

He’s willing to risk it all for me, and I’m torn. Because deep down, I know I might be willing to risk everything too.

"Phantom, don't blame me for being heartless. This is the Organization's decision." My teammate looked at me coldly. "Cooperate, and you might live. But even if we only take back your corpse... it makes no difference."

Countless infrared lasers locked onto every lethal point on my body.

I am Phantom, the undisputed Queen of the underworld’s deadliest assassins. But because I became too powerful, the Organization deemed me a threat. They wanted me erased.

There was no escape. But...

If you want me dead, prepare to dragged into hell with me.

Yet, after a lethal explosion that should have ended it all, I woke up. I was reborn into the body of a marginalized, bullied high school girl. No one knew that inside this "ugly, bloated" shell lived a monster.

I was once the nightmare that made the entire underworld tremble. I still am.

To those who bullied me, humiliated me, or tried to kill me: I will pay you back tenfold—no, a hundredfold.

In an elite suburb of New York City, girls are dying. That doesn’t happen in Greenvale, with its immaculate lawns, exclusive yacht clubs and multi-million dollar mansions. But behind its perfect façade, its trimmed hedges and luxury cars, a darkness lies. Girls, dependent on Adderall, outmaneuver each other to get into top colleges, while the mothers’ need to live vicariously only makes it worse. Bella DeFranco is one of the Bronx’s top SVU detectives. At only 37, she disarms everyone with her stunning good looks, yet she is as tough as most men—and a lot smarter, too. Yet when is summoned to Greenvale, she finds herself getting lost in a case that even she can’t comprehend. She stumbles into a land of secrets, a place where husbands hide their pasts from their wives, where friends are not what they seem, and where no one wants to know too much. As she digs deeper into layers of suburban dysfunction, she comes to learn that, behind all the fake smiles, there is a subtle violence--rivaling even her crime-ridden streets of the Bronx. With a killer on the loose, time running out, and a new partner who never recovered from his washed-up alcoholic days, the odds are stacked against Bella. She is determined, though, to save these girls, whatever the cost. Yet as she gets close, the depth of psychosis she discovers shocks even her….

Five years ago, Emeline Maxwell fled her fated mate and his pack in the middle of the night, saved at the border by her brother, who took her home to safety. Five years of healing, five years of pain... and she then found her second chance mate, a feat that many didn't even believe possible, in the last place she expected. In the middle of a summit to better support werewolf and Lycan unity. The Lycan King was her second chance mate. Not everyone was happy with this arrangement; traditionalists called it traitorous, and her first mate had his own 'concerns'. Can Emeline and Theodore make it? That's the question.

Echo never asked to be powerful. She never asked to be hunted. And she definitely never asked to be tethered to Nicholaus—the cold, controlled, terrifyingly gentle heir to a cursed vampire throne. But the day she unleashes her full elemental magic, the tether between them ignites… and so does everything fate has been waiting for.

An ancient seer reveals the truth witches have killed to hide:

“The last king was cursed for failing to love a witch.
Now the new king must love completely for the curse to break.
The lock shatters when the Last Elementi accepts her fate…
And binds, marks, and mates her king.”

Echo is the key.
Nicholaus is the lock.
And the witches would rather drag the world into darkness than let the prophecy unfold.
Now Echo must choose who she becomes—a weapon, a queen, or the girl who finally stops running.
But some truths cut deeper than any spell. Especially when Nicholaus holds her trembling body against his and whispers:

“If the cost of breaking the curse is your life…then I choose the curse.”
Nothing prepared her for the way he looks at her. And nothing can stop what’s coming.
Fate is awakening and so is she.

“You seem to have forgotten that you’re not marrying a commoner, Alina. You’re marrying the prince of all vampires, so look alive and get me some coffee.”
Alina Deluca lives a normal life up in the Californian north. At least that’s what she makes the world believe. Locked within her hypnotizing emerald eyes are horrors she could never speak of, even if it killed her.
Erick Stayton, the vampire prince, is her nightmare. To her, he was no more than a cold, savage predator that lusted for her blood and took away everything she had during that one traumatizing night four years ago. Problem is, she is bound to be his bride.
Mustering every strength to set things right in her awry life, she gets embroiled in an ages-old feud and a struggle for power of mind-boggling proportions. Strangely enough, she finds herself connecting with Erick in ways she never knew she could. Suddenly, everything is not what it seems.
Is Erick the heartless monster Alina makes him out to be? Will a vampire law made eons ago be the undoing of the whole vampire race? Will heated passion bloom in these bloodiest of times?

She ran away from home, leaving with anger inside her heart.
She will never accept his father's mistress to become the legal wife after her mom died.
Alone, lost, hungry and desperate. She met the young and wild Lance Angelo Vergara.
They shared a night with full of passion...
Ashamed of what she did. Nathalie Audrey Falcon leave without saying goodbye.
Leaving Lance in so much rage and burning desire.
After 6 years, their path crossed again.
The Forgotten Desire that they felt a long time ago, ignites...
Lance will never forget the night that they had and chased her.
But it will never be the same again...
She is already married, with a twin.
Hiding something...

“How old are you?”
“T-Twenty,” I bit my lower lip, stuttering on the lie. “I’m an adult.”
I trembled but turned my head, allowing him to drag his nose along my neck and breathe in my scent. I didn’t know what I smelled like to him. Did I smell like I was lying?
I held still. He shifted just a bit, seemingly retreating, and I flung my arms around his neck, holding him down.
“Please, Alpha King,” I said. My voice trembled even as I tried to sound sultry. “I’m… sure I can please you.”
“Do you know what happens when you lie to the Alpha King, little girl?”
He knew. I should have known that he would know I wasn’t twenty.
“You seem so deliberate, but I’m not interested in your offer. How about we play a game?”
“A-A game?”
He narrowed his eyes and gave me a slow, cruel smile.
“If you win, I’ll grant you sanctuary.”
My eyes widened with a spark of hope.
“But if you lose….”

Solaris has reached the end. Her body giving out after her gruesome past and forcing her to accept the future. However, she’s not done yet. There are some last strings tied to her past that she needs to bring together. It brings her home, to the Moon River pack, and to two men she never thought she would see again. However, with their fates intertwined, Solaris needs to pull everyone together before she takes her last breath. To save the lives of everyone she loves but her own. Battling the stigma of rogues, the broken-hearts of her lovers, an old flame, her duties to her kind, and trying to hold on before her final breath is taken.

Elora, a young werewolf and daughter of the Beta of Darwin Pack, is forced into slavery together with her siblings when her father is betrayed and branded as a slaver by his own Alpha. Her only goal is to find a way to clear her father's name and find a good home far away from their kingdom where her family could be together but a lot of enemies stand in her way. Becoming the mistress of the Lycan king seemed a good way to get a step further in getting her revenge but it only exposed her to more dangerous enemies. Rome, King of the Lycans, is heartbroken by the betrayal of his wife and is decidedly fed up with matters of the heart. He is on a mission to ensure the new law he passed on slavery was being followed when he is bumped into by a female werewolf that steals his breath and commands his attention. He finds out she's the daughter of a slaver and hopes to put distance between himself and the alluring woman but with the threat of losing his throne, he is forced to make her his mistress.

When her sister disappears for three years, Kasia sets out on a dangerous mission to find her. She goes to the Lycan King's home, hoping to find clues about Lana's whereabouts. However, she finds much more than she bargained for. Kasia learns that the Lycan King, Ethan, is her mate, a fact that both surprises and terrifies Kasia.

Ethan has no intention of letting her go. Kasia must decide whether to follow her heart and embrace her destiny as Ethan's mate, or continue to fight against the supernatural creatures she has been trained to hate.

Misa is a sheltered novice of the pious Sisterhood of the Fire, her innocence protected by the walls of the temple and the strict codes of Halen-Dar. When the scarred, brutal King of Askaris arrives, mounted on a dragon and leading his army of savage warriors, Misa's father commits the ultimate betrayal against her:

He offers Misa as a bride to the Askari king in order to save his own clan.

Violently wrenched from her home and forced into a dark marriage of convenience, Misa finds herself utterly bound to the one man who fulfills her deepest, most terrifying nightmares. As she faces the agonizing terror of her impending innocence lost and a forced proximity with him, Misa begins to sense a strange, aching connection between her and the terrifying man she was married to against her will.

Her sole purpose is to give birth to his heir. Nothing more. She is to be used as a breeder, discarded, and forgotten, so the king may secure his legacy and ensure his dragon blood lives on. But when his cold, possessive interest gives way to a volatile desire...

What does it take to conquer a conqueror?

After mating to the prince, I was brutally killed by my jealous friend during pregnancy!
Luckily I was reborn and the ugly scars on my face were gone. My husband, who never cared about me, suddenly came to my door. How dare he let my son call him Daddy？
——
“Wake up,” I willed myself desperately, to my sunken and sallow body. “You can’t die. If you die, the baby will die.”
Moon Goddess, are you here to answer my prayers?
Yes, child. But there is a reason I am here to grant you life again; your bloodline is too significant and rare to expunge.
This is why you paired Prince Aldrich and I, I muttered, realization surfacing.
You are just as important as him, even more so.
My body thirsted for water, for food and a bath and sunlight. But mostly, it thirsted for revenge at that moment.
I must return, was all I said.
