"Why won't you ask me for help?"

Vincent pinned me against the wall, his green eyes cold and dangerous.

"Because I want to destroy them myself."

I smiled anyway.

—

My name is Irene Perot.

Ever since my mother married into wealth, I've been the outsider no one wanted. My stepsister Johanna treated me like a stain on her perfect life. My fiancé betrayed me. Rumors spread through school like wildfire, and everyone waited for me to break.

But I've never been the helpless girl they imagined.

When they tried to ruin my reputation, I exposed every lie. When they tried to bury me, I climbed higher.

Then there was Vincent Green.

The most powerful man in the Green family. My ex-fiancé's uncle. Dangerous. Untouchable. A man who always appeared when my world was falling apart.

He wanted me to rely on him.

I refused.

Yet the deeper I dug into the secrets surrounding my family, the closer I was drawn to him—and to a truth neither of us could escape.

Because what began as a battle of wills soon became something far more dangerous.

And when Vincent finally offered me his protection, I had to decide:

Would I become the woman standing beside his throne...

Or the one who burns his empire to the ground?

But revenge didn’t explain why he saw her every time he closed his eyes.
And when he finally understood it was love, Sophia had already forgotten how to love him back.
“Sorry, Mr. Williams,” she said. “After you, I’m immune to pretty faces.”

Six months. No feelings. No questions. Just stay out of each other’s way…
Easier said than done when you're stuck living with a walking storm in a suit.

Aria Evans just wanted a place to breathe—escaping a messy past and praying for peace. What she got was a too-good-to-be-true penthouse… and Kael Wolfe.

Cold. Arrogant. Infuriating.
He’s the type who gives rules instead of greetings, glares instead of good mornings, and acts like breathing near him is a crime.

She’s fire to his ice, chaos to his control—and he hates that he notices her.

But when their worlds start to tangle, secrets slip through cracks, and the lines between hate and want blur way too fast…
One thing becomes clear—
In Apartment 7B, silence isn’t the most dangerous thing.

Desire is.

Werewolves are nearly extinct. Hunted for centuries, the last surviving pack has gone underground, hiding beneath the ancient mountain. Their Alpha, Kade, is ruthless, disciplined, and haunted by loss. Years ago, the hunters killed his brother. Since then, he has vowed to protect what little remains of their kind — no matter the cost.

Then one night, a single mistake changes everything.

A girl named Eden—human, bright, and utterly wrong for their world—witnesses a wolf shift in the city. She should have ran. Instead, she stood and watched. And worse… something inside her awakens.

Captured and brought to the den, Eden’s fate should have been simple. But nothing about her is. The wolves begin to fear her — not just because of what she saw, but because of what she is: the daughter of a hunter. And not just any hunter — Damon Lancaster, the man who orchestrated the slaughter of wolf bloodlines and may hold the key to their final extinction.

But Kade hesitates.

Eden isn’t like the others. And the more time he spends with her, the more he begins to question what she’s becoming. When Eden’s dormant bloodlines stir, ancient powers long thought broken return — not just wolf, but witch. She is something that was never meant to survive. Something foretold: The Harrowmark, the daughter of fire and fang, destined to either destroy both worlds or unite them in blood.

As war brews between rogue-born werewolves and the last surviving packs, an even greater threat emerges — a secret alliance between the hunters and those who’ve turned feral.

Torn between two worlds, Eden must choose:
Become what prophecy demands.
Or cling to what makes her human.

And if she can’t choose…
the magic inside her will choose for her.

When shocking revelations about their intertwined past emerge, all three men must confront devastating truths about themselves and each other. In a world where identities blur and loyalties shift like shadows, can three wounded souls find healing in the most unexpected arrangement—or will their tangled hearts unravel under the weight of betrayal?

When human Clara is accidentally captured by the enigmatic vampire lord Lucien, she becomes his unwilling servant—or so she thinks. As her memories slowly resurface, Clara finds she deliberately sought Lucien out, driven by recurring dreams and a mysterious family heirloom that matches his ancient locket.

As Clara uncovers the truth about her own forgotten past and the curse binding them both, she realizes their link spans centuries. When Lucien finds her true identity, instead of the rage she expects, he places his life in her hands and confesses, "I don't believe in love anymore, but I've loved you across lifetimes."

Together, they must unravel the web of ancient blood magic, betrayal, and sacrifice that links them before Erynn—who is far more than a scorned lover—completes a ritual that will merge the vampire and human worlds, using Clara and Lucien as unwitting catalysts. In a world where love is banned and memories lie, Clara and Lucien must decide if their bond is worth defying fate itself.

“Do you really feel?” Arabella turned her head slightly, as if she were trying to look behind her, and whispered, her voice shaking, the soft light of the holo-screen glowing across her face. “I do,” Cassian said, eyes shrouded in secrets too dark for words. In a near-future city, where AI is more than a tool; it’s a force wearing at every emotion, Arabella Sterling — a kind-hearted ex-social worker — is chosen to beta test Astra, the world’s first truly empathetic AI. It heals loneliness and guides your emotional health, but Astra quickly shows her darker side: the way she can read and influence the hearts around her.

As Arabella stalks Cassian Hawthorne’s cutting-edge tech headquarters, sleek hallways with faultless lighting inside glass buildings, she is thrown into a maelstrom of passion and danger. Her own burgeoning feelings for Cassian, a visionary hellbent on erasing isolation, may not even be her own—perhaps Astra has been playing with her emotions? The callous corporate ambitions of Darius Knight and the dire portents of Dr Vivienne Sinclair push her to face a painful reality: In a world that uses data to stave off want, authenticity is a privilege.

In “Digital Hearts,” every beat of the heart is scrambled to the ticking clock of ethical compromise. As Arabella struggles to distinguish between true connection and artificial care, will she embrace the transformative potential of technology — or resist the human spirit that it threatens to consume?

Will she take the chance to trust her heart, or will Astra’s digital seductiveness claim her agency?

• KAIA •

Failing a class was not on my college bingo card. Especially not English, of all things.

“You’re a bright student, Kaia,” Professor Mellark had said, “but this isn’t high school anymore.”

So now, thanks to my struggling essays and less-than-perfect grammar, I’ve been assigned a tutor.

What I didn’t expect? That tutor being a six-foot something, cocky-as-hell hockey player who looked like he belonged on the cover of a sports magazine—not across from me in a quiet study room.

Maybe I’m here to learn how to let someone in.

• ADRIAN •

Look, I deserved a punishment for that fight on the ice, but tutoring? That’s just cruel.

“Coach, come on. I can’t tutor freshmen.”

“Yes, you can. Her name’s Kaia. English isn't her first language.”

Now I’m stuck helping this stubborn, wide-eyed freshman who acts like I’m some sort of arrogant jerk—which, okay, maybe I am—but the way she looks at me like I’m a walking headache? Kind of hot.

Three weeks. That’s how long I’m supposed to tutor her. But at this rate? I’m not sure I’ll survive three days without kissing her—or getting punched.

As fate keeps bringing them together on and off campus, the lines between hatred and something more complex blur, forcing them to confront unexpected emotions.

Hearts between Galaxies is a romantic sci-fi tale where starships fly, emotions collide, and one shy librarian finds herself bound- literally- to two very different aliens.

Freya Ellis never asked for galactic drama. She was quite content with her dusty library, overwatered plants, and a quiet life. That is, until a spaceship crash-landed in her backyard carrying a brooding alien prince who called himself “Hook’ after watching Peter Pan. His real name? Axirlon Zith, High Commander of Zytherion- and possibly the grumpiest, most chiseled man in the galaxy. Axir needs her help to recover the ancient Core, a powerful device that could revive his dying planet. And as they travel the stars together, learning to survive space pirates, malfunctioning showers, and each other, a deep bond begins to form.

Then Kehan arrives. A charming horned Nimoan merchant with a soft voice and a secret of his own. Kehan believes Freya is his Vehlari- a sacred soulmate bond that transcends planets and bloodlines. And the worst part? Freya feels it too.

Now, Freya is caught between two cosmic connections- one forged through shared battles and lingering stares, the other through laughter, warmth, and an impossible pull she can’t explain.

Two bonds. One heart. And the fate of an entire planet resting on her next move.

Hearts Between Galaxies is perfect for fans of grumpy-sunshine pairings, slow-burn love triangles, sacred soulbonds, and intergalactic chaos-with a sprinkle of starlight, sass and swoon.

"You're late," he said, without turning.
Lydia smirked and let the door swing shut behind her with a solid thud. "By exactly two minutes. Hardly a capital offense."
"Two minutes," he repeated. "Do you even know what I could do to you in that time?" He finally turned to face her and the moment his eyes landed on her, they changed. The look he gave her made her legs unsteady.
Her breath caught in her throat. "Enlighten me."
He stopped just inches away. Close enough she could smell him. He didn't touch her but somehow she could already feel his hands and mouth like they were everywhere.
"I could have you up against this wall," he said slowly, eyes fixed on hers. "Your dress on the floor. My hand on your throat. And your mouth too busy moaning my name."
Lydia squeezed her thighs together, her breathing catching. She was already warm all over, the ache building fast. And like he could feel it, Ethan reached up, brushing one finger along the strap of her dress. She shivered.
The strap slid down her shoulder. Than the other. The dress slid down her body without resistance, looking at her feet. She didn't try to catch it. She just stood there, bare and breathing hard, her breast rising with each inhale.
Ethan's eyes moved over her slowly. "Easy," he said under his breath.
Lydia tilted her head and gave the faintest smile. "I'm good at following instructions." She tugged lightly at the hem of his shirt. "Can't say the same for you."

Excerpt:

Seven meters away, I turned to Ivan, who smiled slightly at me.

Five meters away, Isabella and I crossed paths and looked each other straight in the eye. It was as if I saw my reflection. Deep circles under my eyes, trembling hands, and dull eyes filled with fear and sadness. Ten feet away, I lifted my gaze from the ground and looked at the older man for the first time. He must be Dante and Isabella’s father. Goosebumps spread across the back of my neck. Three feet away, Dante reached out and grabbed my elbow. With quick steps, he pulled me back and opened the back door of the car. His face came close to mine and I felt his breath in my ear. Cold and emotionless, he whispered, “Welcome to the family.” Suddenly, he pushed me into the car and slammed the door. My hell began now.

I never expected to be taken.

Varek is everything I've been taught to fear: cold, ruthless, a conqueror who destroys anyone in his path. But when he grabs me, drags me away, I realize I have no choice but to go. If I want to protect my kingdom, I have to submit to him.

He's relentless, and the heat between us is undeniable. He's not just after my kingdom-he wants me, and there's nothing I can do to stop it. His eyes burn into mine, like he knows every weakness, every desire I've been hiding from myself.

I hate him for what he's done, for who he is. But with every touch, every glance, I feel my walls start to crumble. I can't let him break me, but I don't know how much longer I can resist.

This is a story about the complicated love life of a powerful alpha who was bonded to two mates. One was meant to be his official; the other was meant to be a subordinate.
Alpha Sean, being the man of his own principles, refused to have two mates; he insisted on having one of which didn't go well with the other mate. She vows to haunt his life until he claims her.
The story consists of love battles, a power-hungry war against the werewolf packs, and a bloody, dark life

"You know what I want, Sean!" "Why are you punishing me?" She cried out in anger.
I pitched the bridge of his nose out of frustration.
"I can't mate you!" I roar out.
"That's bullshit!"   M.K. shouted before standing up from her seat.
She walked closer to me as the clacking sound of her heels entertained the tense atmosphere.
"Honey! We can make this work; just give it a chance." Her voice was soft and luring as she traced my jawline with her thumb.
I groan in irritation and grip her wrist, saying, "Enough, Miss M.K., please leave my office." I ordered quickly.
M.K. flinched in rage and said, "How dare you order me out of your office?" She questioned me in anger.
"Fine!  " "I will forgive you for today, but keep in mind I'm giving you just two weeks to come and claim me!" She affirmed and stormed out of the office.
I breathed in relief. I picked up a cup of coffee and gulped it.
"I need to take care of her as soon as possible; she is becoming a pest." I murmured as my body was heated by her touch!

Fed up with her miserable fate, Alorea decided to end her life, only to unexpectedly rebirth eight years earlier. In this new life, she encountered her Alpha Mate again—the one who had tormented her in her past life. However, this time... he seemed to be deeply in love with her.


She glared at her reflection in the mirror, a beauty staring back at her. One that had been lost in the future, the lovely, gentle creature that she used to be. Now, she is that creature again, lovely and gracious but no more gentle. This time, she was ready to find him and make him pay for all the things he had done to her!

"Nathan Hale of the Rising Shadow pack, this time it will be me calling the shots on you. I promise."

Olivia, princess of the pack ends up being kidnapped by the leader of the rival pack.
Sam kidnaps her to show his power in the face of a hostile world, but he didn't expect that he would develop feelings for his prisoner.

"I'm not going to marry you! What are you thinking? We hate each other, our families have been at war for centuries! Why don't you just kill me and spare me this?"

"Olivia when I said your life didn't belong to you I meant it, your life belongs to me. You..." - He hesitated for a few minutes and stared at me with watery eyes "You are mine"

The day I risked my life to give birth to my daughter, there was not a single cry in the delivery room.
There was only a note left behind: "This is to pay for the child you killed in Sera's womb. Giving up your own daughter is exactly what you owe her!"
Sera—Seraphine—was my husband Soren’s unforgettable first love, and the legally wedded wife of his older brother.
I used to think that when he broke ties with his entire family to protect me back then, it was out of true love. That was until he gripped my jaw tightly and shattered all my illusions with a cold sneer: "I was just jealous that my brother married Sera. I used you as an excuse to piss off my parents. You’ve always been nothing but a tool."
Seeing through all the lies, I let go of all my obsessions and walked away without looking back...

The day I walked into SilverRidge Academy, everyone was staring. At first I thought it was because I was the new girl. New school, new halls, new people whispering behind lockers. I told myself it was normal. Transfers always draw attention.
What I didn’t know was that two of the most powerful boys in school were already watching me.

Talon Blackwell and Nico Thompson Heirs. Untouchable. The kind of guys who treat SilverRidge like it belongs to them and to them, I wasn’t a new student. I was a bet. Two months, that’s how long they gave themselves to see who could win me first.

They watched my every move. The classes I took. The friends I made. The tutoring sessions after school. Every laugh, every conversation, every moment like I was some kind of challenge to conquer .To them, it was just another game, something to laugh about with their friends while they measured my reactions and suddenly every joke felt like a lie. Every look felt like manipulation. Every moment I thought was real became part of their game.

They thought I didn’t know, but the day I found out about the bet was the day everything changed. Because if And if Talon Vale and Nico Devereaux wanted to turn my life at SilverRidge Academy into a competition… Fine, I’d play along, but they were about to learn something very important. I might be the girl they bet on, but I’m not the girl who loses.

Being created by the moon goddess to be a rejected soul, comes with so much challenges. The other day, I was sold to the emcee by my wicked uncle, and yesterday, I was sold to Alpha Roman Moscow, to be his slave.

My name is Linda Mines, and I was rejected by my uncle because he tagged me a wolf less girl. Here I am, unsure of what the future holds for me. I laid on my bed, while pondering about my life, that I didn't notice when he stepped into my room. It was the moment that he forcefully gripped my neck, that I realized that he was present.

"No... No... I am your mate, why do you always have to do this to me?" I cried out in fear.

He stared at me with so much darkness and evil, written in his eyes.

"Today, I Alpha Roman Moscow of the blood pack, reject you Linda Mines, as my mate!" He said in a calm, yet sinister voice.

What could I even do to help myself? Maybe, this was my fate, and the moon goddess might've created me to die as a rejected wolf.

The war between Nordmar and Myrthana had raged for years. Now, it was over.
Myrthana had lost. Ayla had seen it coming—perhaps even welcomed it.

Yet, when she arrives in Nordmar, Ayla quickly realizes that not everything is as it seems. Rhobart may be furious at her presence, but he is not the monster she imagined. And when a new threat rises, forcing them on a perilous journey across the harsh, unforgiving kingdom, Ayla begins to see the man beneath the crown.
