Rue Lowell spent all her life preparing to be Alpha of Bloodhound Pack. After her parents' mysterious death, the Alpha position automatically fell on her.

But on the night she was meant to be crowned, she was sold as a slave to the Alpha Beast, Alpha Thane, the cursed Lycan King who was rumoured to have murdered his own mate.

…

People called him a monster. A beast. His name was whispered with fear, and his presence sent terror into every heart.

Alpha Thane Lockwood carried a curse from birth, a curse that killed his emotions, turning him heartless and cold.

The first time he saw Rue, he was spellbound, his frozen heart stirring for the first time in centuries. He found himself inexplicably drawn to her, craving her presence, her scent, her soul.

Until everything changed on the night of a bloodmoon. Secrets were unraveled, and Thane discovered Rue was his mate.

The one in the prophecy.
The one meant to destroy him.
His curse.

Being the first born of her parent’s Lilith never got that attention and love from her parents because they wanted boy and not a girl, and hence she was not respected in her school as well, despite being the Alpha blood, but it gets worse for her when at the age of sixteen her wolf appears but she couldn’t shift. Member of her pack assumed that she is a weak wolf and an insult for the pack, hence bullying starts for her because her own parents felt disgust from her. She did not lose the hope and waited impatiently for her mate, until one day the Alpha of Creek Star pack was invited to the dinner by her father and she found out that none other than Caleb Donovan is her mate but her heart breaks down when she finds out why he accepted her as his mate.

In a world where magical courts wage war through cursed flesh, enemies are turned into monsters and used as weapons. A politically vulnerable woman, Lyx receives a deadly and dangerous gift. Her enemy sends her their most powerful weapon: a cursed beast built to kill her and leave no trace of a mistake. She was never supposed to survive the night. But instead of running, she does the unthinkable—she speaks to it like a person. That was her mistake, or maybe her salvation. The curse begins to crack.

The beast, once a powerful man, Cael. chooses not to kill her. And neither of them can walk away. Now bound by something neither fully understands, they must survive enemies who want the weapon back.

Now the enemy is afraid of what they created. Bound by something neither fully understands, they must survive enemies who want the weapon back. The courts want what she has broken, returned, or destroyed. Because the greatest threat isn't the curse; it's what happens next when it finally breaks.
And the man emerging from the beast. Cael. Who owes her nothing and has every reason to leave, has decided, for reasons neither of them has named yet, to stay.

Rejected by her mate, but now the whole pack bows to her.

That very brutal rule; “weakness is death!” These words were imprinted deep within her. When her fated bond to Alpha Kieran is revealed, she dares to hope, until he rips her heart out in front of the entire clan. Cast out and left for dead, Ava vows never to trust another wolf again.

But fate isn’t done with her.

Found by a rogue Alpha with secrets of his own, Ava discovers a power no one expected, a gift tied to a forgotten prophecy. As her strength grows, so does the life inside her; Kieran’s unborn child, an heir born from betrayal.

Now, with her former pack under the rule of a traitorous Beta and Kieran himself on the brink of death, Ava must choose: flee forever or rise as the Luna she was born to be.

Even if it means tearing the pack apart to reclaim it.

“Holy shit. You really are the owner?!” Heather drunkenly shouts, as we make our way up the stairs and into that VIP booth.
“My club and my right to lay claim to anyone who catches my eye,” Luc drawls, and I shoot him a look, shifting my weight to get in between him and Heather.
“Look, you can’t just… I mean, thanks for the drinks, but she is not going to…” God I sound like an idiot, and staring straight in Luc’s eyes I feel more than a little intimidated, especially because he is not intimidated by me whatsoever. He’s smiling like I’ve just gifted him a shiny new present. I turn to tell Heather we should go, and Luc catches my arm.
“I wasn’t trying to steal away your date,” he laughs. “I invited the both of you here, now didn’t I?” He pushes a hand through Heather’s hair, turning boldly to face her dreamy eyed gawking. “You ever had a three way?”

Christopher was born into one of the most powerful families in the country. Most of the family members are politicians. After graduation, he will become an official under his grandfather's arrangement. However, he meets a girl on his graduation trip and falls in love with her. His family disapproved of their marriage because he was engaged to a girl from a powerful family. So she eloped with him and became the daughter-in-law of his family. What's next for Christopher's story?

In the dead of night, a brutal murder shatters the peace of a quiet neighborhood. A sharp-witted female detective and a seasoned male homicide detective are thrust together to solve the case. As they dive into a series of chilling mysteries, each more twisted than the last, their professional partnership evolves.

Through late-night stakeouts and heart-pounding chases, their bond deepens, and mutual respect turns into a burgeoning romance. But with a cunning killer always one step ahead, they must stay focused to survive. In a world where shadows conceal the darkest truths, can they trust each other enough to bring justice?

Marisol Torres had known hardship her entire life, but nothing could prepare her for the night her entire family was massacred. A ruthless gang stormed into their tiny home, slaughtering her parents and siblings while she lay helpless in a pool of blood. Left for dead but miraculously surviving, she emerged from the ashes with nothing but a scarred body and a heart consumed by vengeance.

 

Desperation led her into the hands of Rafael Montoya, a powerful and enigmatic mafia lord with a reputation as lethal as his charm. At his high-end nightclub, Marisol became more than just a dancer, she became his spy, his enforcer, and eventually his confidante. But beneath her obedience, she harbored a secret: every move she made was a step toward avenging her family.

 

Her world unravels when she spots one of her family’s killers in Rafael’s inner circle, a scarred man with a sinister grin. She’s certain he’s part of the gang that destroyed her life, but why is he so deeply connected to Rafael? As she digs deeper, shocking truths emerge: her father’s death wasn’t just a random act of violence. It was part of a calculated betrayal tied to her father’s hidden double life, and Rafael’s empire.

 

When Marisol confronts Rafael, his chilling confession shatters her: “Your father betrayed me, Marisol. His choices sealed your family’s fate.”

Now, with vengeance within reach, Marisol must decide: will she destroy the man who saved her but kept her in the dark? Or will uncovering the truth about her father lead her down an even darker path?

Can Marisol forgive the man who both saved her life and shattered it? Or will the weight of her revenge pull her into the very darkness she’s trying to escape?

Lena van Dijk lived a quiet, predictable life—until one fateful night changed everything. Without warning, she finds herself entangled in an arranged marriage with Casper Vermeer, the untouchable billionaire and head of the most powerful family in the state. To him, Lena is nothing more than a convenient accessory, a necessary piece in a carefully crafted façade. But she isn’t the docile, obedient wife he expects. She’s a fire in human form, and her defiance sparks something deep within him.
Casper plays by his own rules. Cold, calculated, and dangerously handsome, he believes love is nothing more than a weakness. But Lena tests his limits in ways he never imagined. Her strength, her kindness, and the way she challenges him threaten to dismantle the walls he’s spent years building.
As they navigate their forced union, tensions rise, and hidden desires surface. Lines blur between pretense and reality, and soon, Casper isn’t sure if he’s protecting Lena from the world—or himself.
With secrets lurking in the shadows and past demons refusing to stay buried, one question remains: can a marriage built on lies and necessity transform into something real, or is their love doomed before it even begins?

My husband, Arthur, forced me to take private training sessions with his buddy Marcus, saying my body wasn’t good enough for him to really enjoy himself in bed. But on the very first day, Marcus started getting handsy with me.

What I didn’t expect was for him to start rubbing his thing against my pussy.

Vania never imagined that the man she once called her future would become the very reason her dignity shattered.
She had given him everything—her soul, her body, her trust—believing her fiancé would protect and cherish her. But behind the sweet promises and the nearly perfect wedding plans, a cruel bargain had already been made: she had been turned into a wager.
To save his family’s company from the brink of collapse, he chose the most despicable path—selling Vania’s innocence to his own best friend as “capital” to keep the business alive.
The love she thought was sacred became a transaction. The sacrifice she believed was devotion transformed into an unforgivable betrayal.
Now, standing among the ruins of her dreams and the fragments of her stolen dignity, Vania must decide: remain a victim of someone else’s greed—or rise, reclaim herself, and demand justice for what was taken from her.

Aurora Calloway was the wife no one knew existed, trapped in a marriage where love was a distant illusion. But when betrayal cuts too deep, the life she thought she had unravels, forcing her into a battle she never saw coming.

“Did I not make you a promise?”
King Evander asked, ripping her dress off, leaving it hanging around her waist, exposing her full breast.
