"She was mine first," Dimitri whispered, his voice deadly calm. "And you stole her in the dark."
Dimitri and Alexei Volkov—twin brothers, mafia kings, two halves of a single shadow. They ruled cities together, buried enemies together, breathed through each other’s rage and silence. Nothing had ever broken them. Not bullets. Not blood. Not betrayal from the outside world.
Until her.
Irina was Dimitri’s quiet refuge, the only softness in his brutal life. His maid… yet the only woman he ever allowed close. She soothed him without knowing it. She steadied the chaos he lived in. Over time, she became the one thing he couldn’t live without.
He loved her. Deeply. Quietly. In a way a monster shouldn’t love anyone.
But one night changed everything.
A drunken party. A dark hallway. A room lit only by shadows. Alexei wearing Dimitri’s robe. Irina whispering a name that wasn’t his. A mistake born from darkness—a moment that spiraled into sin.
And now… Irina carries the child of the wrong brother.
When Dimitri learns the truth, something inside him shatters. Rage becomes a living thing in his chest. Alexei’s smirk—claiming Irina, claiming the baby—turns brotherhood into war.
For the first time in their lives, the Volkov twins are standing on opposite sides.
One wants the woman he loves.
One wants the woman who will give him an heir.
And Irina… is trapped between a love she didn’t choose and a fate she never asked for.
Two brothers.
One woman.
A child powerful enough to crown one king…
and destroy the other.
In the Volkov world, betrayal is paid in blood.
And this time, the blood spilled may belong to the brothers themselves.
When this war ends… who will be left standing?

BLURB

For four years, Avrielle lived in a gilded cage of gratitude, cherished by a husband who stayed by her side after a tragic accident left her paralyzed. She believed she was a beloved wife—until she found the diary. Inside were the jagged words of a man trapped by guilt, dreaming of a divorce and the woman he truly loved.

Now, Avrielle has twenty-four hours to play the part of the happy bride one last time. While Kayden performs a mask of devotion, she is orchestrating a silent escape that will strip him of everything. But as the clock ticks down to her flight to Switzerland, the lines between her revenge and her lingering love begin to blur.

What if all she believed in was a lie... What if she caused her own destruction?

The sound of the gurneys almost deafen my ears, and the light from these doctors' torches is blinding me but I keep running towards the scene. It is 12 o' clock. In the midnight, I know even though I don't look at the clock over my head. With sweaty palms and terrific faces, five gurneys are wheeled towards the emergency rooms by the late night doctors. Even though their mouths are shut tight, I can hear millions of inaudible sounds coming out of them. Each of the gurneys are being wheeled by two personnels, and each time they pass me by, i peer into them to see the victims' faces clearly because I can not see them from where I am.

The first face I see is badly disfigured. It's got a big mark from the forehead down to her upper eyelid, her lips are charred and her jaw is almost totally detached from the rest of her face. Hot drops of blood trickle down her head to her chest and her dress is soiled. She looks like she is no longer breathing and just as the ambulance pass by me, I see something in her hands-A red neck piece. She is clutching it tightly like it is her whole life. My red neck piece. Yes, this victim is my only sister, Jamie but I do not cry. I mean, I always want to cry but I can't. So my face is firm and peaceful, but I am screaming inside me. My legs are hitting the air and I'm ripping my hair inside of me, but outside? I am standing tall. Somehow, with all the swiftness as they pass by me, her hands shake and she loses hold of the red neck piece. As thick and shiny as my hair, our hair(hers blonde and mine black). It falls from her hands and drops at my feet just as soon as the second ambulance approaches me. I bend to pick up my red neckpiece-the one thing that binds my sister and I together but whoosh...it is air. I can see it on the cold tiled floor but when I try to pick it up, it is not there.

My mate. My dignity. My future.

Olivere was not my sister, yet she always took what I wanted. Born to the powerful Beta of the Silver Moon Crest Pack, she was untouchable. And Stephan—my childhood love and destined mate—never wanted me to begin with.

We grew up together—Stephan, Marcus, Olivere, Juliet, and me. I devoted my life to Stephan, even saved him, but in the end, he chose her. Because I was lowborn. Because I was nothing.

On our mate night, he severed our bond. I felt my wolf die.

Then came the accusations. My mother, blamed for killing the Alpha—Stephan’s father. And me? Accused of aiding her. Stripped of my Beta rank. Thrown into the dirt as an omega.

But something changed. My wolf came back, stronger than ever. A strange power surged within me, tied to a guard I didn’t even know.

Forced to serve as a slave under Olivere, I vowed to uncover the truth, to clear my mother’s name. But when I finally regained my wolf, my heart screamed for revenge.

Yet, fate has a cruel sense of humor. When the truth is revealed, I must make a choice.

Revenge or love?

Which will I sacrifice?

My legs were shaking and my heart was beating so fast as I entered the chambers.
It was a little dark inside and I could hardly see anything.
"Ly..Lycan..you sent for me.." I said with a shaky voice.
That familiar scent hit my nostrils, making me grow excited and assaulting my senses. I could feel myself gradually growing wet underneath.
"You.." I heard him say coldly and turned to his direction. He was sitting on a sofa beside his window.
"Come here.." he commanded and I took slow strides to where he was.
"What is your name?.." he asked Icily
"Oli..Olivia, Olivia Gael.." I stuttered.
"I Kayden Enzo of the paxon pack reject you Olivia Gael as my mate and Luna of my pack.." he said with no emotion.
"What!!"

“On your hands and knees,” he commanded.

Ashes in Her Mouth

The fire took more than walls. It took names. Faces. Pieces of me I’ll never get back.

Now it’s back. Different street, same smoke. Same teeth in the dark.

The brass call it arson. I call it unfinished business.

Every blaze leaves a mark a body, a whisper, a threat carved in soot. Someone wants me chasing. Someone wants me choking on the past.

I should walk away. Let the flames eat the city clean. But the next fire is already lit. And I know where it’s burning.

Not a matter of if I get there in time. Just what I’ll lose when I do.

A dragon’s soul lives inside her one that once set empires ablaze.

Now the Obsidian Order wants her power. The Ember Cult wants her crown. And the voice in her head ancient, arrogant, and all too alive wants freedom.

As magic riots tear through the city and old gods begin to stir beneath the streets, Kaia must master the inferno within before it consumes her… or watch the world burn from the ashes of her own making.

Because in New Arcana, every flame demands a sacrifice.

Detective Grace Marlowe has built her career on precision and grit, carving her place in the department without owing anyone favors. But when she’s called to the scene of a murdered tech heiress in a penthouse suite, the case feels wrong from the start every detail too deliberate, too staged.

The body is laid out like an art installation: silk gown, perfectly applied lipstick, a single drop of blood at the corner of her mouth. No sign of forced entry. No defensive wounds. And tucked under the bed, hidden in a place only a meticulous search would find—an envelope.

It isn’t addressed to the victim. It’s addressed to Grace.

Inside: a photo of her sister, taken the year she disappeared

Enemies rise as her magic grows dark mages who want her power, ancient creatures who want her blood, and a fate that demands she either save the world… or burn it.

She should run from Aeryn.
Instead she finds herself pinned under him, his voice rough at her ear, begging her to choose him even if it damns them both.

Now Kaela must decide:
Will she claim the dragon king whose desire could ruin kingdoms
or break the bond that could destroy him?

“Yara,” he murmured softly before his lips crashed into mine. A muffled noise escaped me but I didn’t hesitate to reciprocate the kiss and moments later, I was backed up against the counter with his body pressed against mine.

I wanted to melt in his arms while he deepened the kiss and I moaned into his mouth when his hands slid down to grab my ass. Oh my God. He squeezed, making another moan escape me, before he began to trail kisses down my neck and stopped at a spot to suck on it.

“Aiden.”
