I, Sulli, the wolfless werewolf, found myself exiled from my pack, the Nixx Pack. My parents' wrongdoing had cost them their lives and our pack dearly. Lost and with nowhere to turn, I ended up in the woods and got attacked by rogue wolves. I was unaware that I'd trespassed into the territory of the BrimeStone Pack, rivals of the Nixx Pack. Unable to defend myself, I ran until I reached a dead end. I thought all hope was lost when I heard a commotion. The rogue wolves were dropping dead one by one. I covered my ears and eyes, huddling in a corner. When the sounds ceased, I slowly opened my eyes, and they fell upon a tall, brooding stranger. The creature knocked me out. Upon waking, I found myself in a cottage. I got to find out the owner was Ron, a barbarian Alpha and protector of the BrimeStone Pack. I was terrified of him, but I had no other place to go. I had to stay with him, even though he didn't want me around and preferred solitude. I noticed he was cold, rarely spoke, and had a short temper. We argued over the smallest things. During our time together, I once ventured out and bumped into the Werewolf Prince of the BrimeStone Pack, Cole. He became utterly smitten with me and that's when life got more complicated. Why did I feel that Cole was my mate, despite Ron and I sharing the same birthmark on our chests?

"You have to live, Lily, not just for me - but for everyone and everything we care about." She holds the key, or does she? ~~~~~~~~~ Lily's world trembles as she discovers she's "half of the chosen one." The burning question remains: Who is the other half and who completes her destiny? Adrian, a vampire she helps and has an instant connection with or Tyler, her arrogant ex and the Alpha-to-be? And who is the leader of the vampire coven who now takes such a keen interest in Lily?

One… He told me I was beautiful, his most cherished possession. But when the door closed, I became his punching bag. Two... He whispered promises of forever, of love that would never break. But every touch left me colder, every word more twisted. Three… I thought I could endure it. I thought I could survive in his world. Until I met Dimitri. Four… He was my salvation, a knight in shining armor. Until his smiles turned sharp, until his hands held me too tight. Five... Niko broke me with fists. Dimitri broke me with silence. Six... I tried to run, but the chains wrapped tighter. Niko wouldn't let me leave. Dimitri wouldn't let me breathe. Seven… They told me it was love. They told me I was lucky. Eight... Niko bruised my skin, marked me with scars. Dimitri bruised my soul, twisted me until I didn't know who I was. Nine... Every step toward freedom led me deeper into their grasp. Niko was my nightmare, but Dimitri became my prison. Ten... And now, as I look back, I wonder... will I ever escape? Or am I already too far gone?

Overworked and overstressed Durella was just looking for one night of pleasure and leisure in a stripper club her friend took her to but she ended up entering into a blood bond with the owner of the club who's coincidentally the Alpha of Hell. Yes, that Hell. Hadez was already dealing with his annoying baby mama, his betrothed and also his sister who always seemed to get in trouble, so adding another female into his life would push him to the brink of madness. And definitely not a human female at that! But things get serious when Benro, his outcast brother teams up with Iman, the bloodthirsty Prince of the Underworld, who wishes more than anything to have Hadez' head on a platter as he is crowned the supreme leader of all parts of the Underworld, including Hell. When Hadez finds out about the blood bond, he is floored. If Durella bleeds, he bleeds too. If she dies, he dies. The last thing he wants is for any of his enemies, and he has multiple, to know of this.
