What makes a hero?

They say a hero is someone that has given his life to something bigger than himself.

I say a hero is no braver than an ordinary man, he is just braver for five minutes longer.

All soldiers are brave, it's what they do with their bravery that makes them heroes.

Am I a hero?

I am a soldier that put my life on the line to save my squad. It is my job, doing my job should not make me a hero.

Clayton Jackson is a First Lieutenant in the Marine Corps. He joined the Marines at the tender age of eighteen and has never dreamt of doing anything else. After a fateful accident during deployment, Clayton becomes disabled and gets his ticket back home.

Isabella Jones, previously married to a Marine, runs away to the town where Clayton lives to get away from her past.

Clayton and Isabella meet one day as they both seek the comfort of the outdoors to clear their heads. The connection is immediate, and their relationship is off to a quick start.

When Clayton gets the opportunity to return to the Marine Corps, Isabella is left to decide if she will go with him or stay behind.

Will Clayton become the ultimate soldier, and will he have Isabella by his side?

"Tell me to stop, and I will," he murmured against my ear. "But if you don't..."
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.


Ella never imagined she would marry the man she had secretly loved for years in such a way.

This wasn't a fairy tale proposal, but a carefully orchestrated revenge. Because in James's heart, Ella was the culprit who had killed his sister Cecilia. He wanted her to pay the price—to atone with a lifetime of suffering.

At twenty-two, she’s sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and stronger than most Betas, she refuses to bow to anyone even if the world insists she’s weak. But behind her strength lies a secret she’s carried for years—her wolf has never answered her call.

Mavros Warren Grimvile, the ruthless Lycan King, is a man feared by all. Cold, untouchable, and haunted by a past that shattered him, he has no room for weakness—nor for love.

But when a humiliating rejection at the Grand Wolf Gala puts Cori in the spotlight, fate takes an unexpected turn. In front of everyone, the King claims her as his own possession.

Now trapped under the rule of a dangerous king, Cori refuses to submit—and Mavros finds himself drawn to the one woman bold enough to defy him.

The King didn’t choose a pawn, he chose a fire that might just burn him alive.

In a world of power, dominance, and hidden truths, will Cori break under his possession… or will she become the one thing the Lycan King never expected—his equal?​
