“Who is she?" I asked, feeling tears well up in my eyes. "He met her at the Alpha training camp," he said. "She is a perfect suitor for him. It snowed last night, indicating that his wolf is happy with his choice." My heart sank, and tears made their way down my cheeks.

" You are no one to me, you are nothing, and don't ever expect anything from me. You were bought here to play the part of a Luna and gratify my sexual desire," My Mate and new alpha said, with no remorse or any kind of affection in his gaze, tears well in my eyes but I refused to cry for the man who beds other women in my presence. I look him in the eyes and answer; " Yes," " No," He growls " Yes, Alpha," I repeat and he walks past me, once he's out of my sight, my legs give up just as tears roll down my cheeks. ... " You're pregnant, Luna, congratulations," My world stopped as I looked at the doctor, she was happy that the pack would have an heir, but I wasn't, you can't be when you've suffered so much at the hands of your fated mate. I ran, I ran and ran but it wasn't far enough for the mighty alpha.

Five hundred years ago, Sebastian Stone, the supreme alpha, was known for his cruelty and cold heart. However, his past mistakes condemned him to an unrelenting curse from the goddess of the moon. Since then, he has been tormented by this curse, which tortures him relentlessly until he finds true love in the form of his second-chance mate, the only one capable of removing the brand that has gripped his heart. But there is a terrible price to pay for his mistakes. If Sebastian Stone proves to be wicked or cruel to his mate, he will face a tragic fate, determined by the ruthless rules of the moon goddess.

Broken. That's one word that can be used to describe Adrienne Knight. For her, life has no meaning. Made to believe she was no more than a piece of worthless property, Adrienne developed a rather grim outlook on life, and rightly so. Happiness seemed to elude her at every turn. From a mate that turned bad, to being tortured within an inch of her life by the same person she thought would protect her. She trusts no one and sees everything as a threat. When Alpha Lucas finds his mate, she isn't what he'd expected. She was a shattered puzzle he had to put together, piece by tiny piece. Some pieces are lost and he has to make new ones, making his job that much harder. It tugs at his heart when she flinches when he touches her, or when she braces for a hit at every movement of his. He wants to kill every person responsible for the mess that was his mate. But slowly, he manages to pull her from her downward spiral and into the light. Their love is one borne from darkness and pain and not even the joined forces of heaven and hell can tear them apart.

“Say it.” Elara’s throat tightened. “I belong to you,” she whispered. Alpha Kane Blackthorn’s gaze remained cold. “Do you understand what that means?” After her father, Beta Draven, is exposed as a traitor responsible for unimaginable crimes, Elara loses everything overnight. Her name. Her freedom. Her place in the Blood Moon Pack. As punishment for her father’s sins, she is taken to the Alpha’s palace and placed under Kane Blackthorn’s control. The ruthless Alpha is known for his unforgiving heart and his hatred for betrayal. To him, mercy is a weakness, and love is a distraction. Elara should hate him. She should fear him. But the closer she gets to the man who holds her fate in his hands, the more she realizes there is more behind his cold eyes than cruelty. Because the Alpha who claims she is nothing but a punishment may be the same man destiny chose for her. And when the truth about their bond is revealed, Kane must choose between the throne he protects and the woman fate placed in his path. He rejected her. But his wolf chose her.

His lips brushed mine, and for one reckless heartbeat, I believed it was real. Then my mate’s voice cut through the air. Rhael his eyes burning with hurt, as if he hadn’t been the one to reject me for being an Omega. Auren’s arm tightened around me, his growl silencing him, staking a claim that was never meant to last. When the crowd was gone, his tone changed low, cold, merciless. “No one’s watching now. Let go.” And I did. Because I’d forgotten what I was to him a lie dressed as a lover, a pawn pretending to matter.

They were already married for three years when Alpha Damian Zeus’s long-lost first love, Lily, returned bringing along a five-year-old pup. Luna Ariana Volkstane slid the formal rejection request across the table. "Let's end this bond. It's better for you, me, and your first love." He just smirked. "You want me to reject you? You think you can break our bond that easily?" So she did. Ariana cut ties with him completely, poured herself into her career, and rose to global fame as a legendary healer, her knowledge of rare herbs, wolf anatomy, and ancient magic sought after across continents. The powerful suitors lined up. The Alpha of an overseas empire whispered, "Ariana, hurry up and perform the severing ritual. I can't wait to claim you." A powerful pack leader vowed, "I'll be there with you the day you break the bond." A legendary wolf attorney promised, "I'll handle your rejection case with the pack council myself." Ariana just rubbed her temples. It's not that she didn't want the split, she wanted it more than anything, it's just that the Alpha she was mated to refused to let go. Finally, she announced, "Whoever can officially get me rejected, I'll put you at the head table of my bond-breaking celebration." Not long after, Alpha Damian was served the official rejection request right in the middle of an emergency pack council meeting. That same afternoon, he was attacked by rogues at the gates of his own territory. When Ariana showed up at the pack infirmary with healing herbs, she repeated calmly, "Let's sever the mate bond. It's better for you, me, and everyone else." But the cold, untouchable Alpha pulled her into his arms, his eyes blood-red with fury. "You want me to reject you? Over my dead body."

“Well, take this, Alpha. I, Shadow Raven Hawks, omega of Night Stalker Pack—” “Shadow, what the f*ck are you doing?” He was fast to cup my face as his eyes began brewing the pain. “Rejecting—” I wasn’t finished when he slammed his mouth against mine, stopping me. *** She’s a lone wolf— a rogue. Shadow Hawks learns to keep her head down. That’s how she survives until she wakes up in a pack run by a control freak hot-as-sin ruthless Alpha.

"Eyes up here," he said. My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody. I found myself molded to Lex's will, my feet irresistibly following the dance steps. The crowd gasped as Lex pulled me into a more intimate position, his hands roaming over my body in a seductive manner. The experience was both terrifying and magical, allowing me to feel every longing emotion through the dance. I soon found myself lost in his arms. When the music finally stopped, my arms were wrapped around his neck, his hands resting on my back, our noses almost touching. He gazed deeply into my eyes. The ballroom fell silent. Was he about to kiss me? **** Lilly’s life was never easy; she lost her memory and family in a blazing fire. Angelica found and took her in—only to make her a slave to the household. Years of torment and abuse left Lilly weak, vulnerable, and believing she was without a wolf, but that didn't mean that all hope was lost. At night, in her dreams, he would patiently wait for her—the man who brought sunshine into her darkest moments. But things are about to drastically change for her... Secrets, lies, betrayal... and a baby on the way. What if Lilly wasn't wolf-less? What if it was all a lie? What if she had a living family? Would she stay and bond with them or make a run for freedom?

"No! It can't be!" I let out an internal hiss. "He would not dare come here!" "What the f*ck, Zara!" Levi bumped into me and growled behind me. "Sorry," I mumbled, wide-eyed. "What's going on with-" Levi's voice faltered when my father turned away from us and approached his table, confirming my worst fears: Noah f*cking Flinch! "Is that?" Levi mind-linked, and I nodded my head. "What brings him here?" He mind-linked. "Come, come, have a seat, Zara," my father called out to me. "We have a lot to discuss." "Beta, you are welcome to sit," my father gestured toward the lover's couch near the wall. Levi cast a sidelong glance at Noah and shook his head. "Thank you, Alpha," Levi grinned stiffly and said. "However, I would prefer to be at Luna's side. "Very well," my father said. "Suite yourself." "Zara," he uttered next. "I understand that you are familiar with Alpha Noah."

Are you keeping secrets from me?" "Don't play the protective beta now," Kaya barked back at him, making Levi quiet. "You are giving me a bloody headache!" I gave a nod in response to most of the questions, staying silent throughout. "Superb, Alpha Noah has requested your hand." All the hair on my body rose. The b*st*rd was using my father to approach me. "Is that so?" I finally found my voice. Both my father and Alpha Noah nodded. "Interesting," I said as I stood up.

Turning back to me and the pack, he announced, "I am taking a chosen mate befitting of the position of the Luna of this great pack." His announcement didn't come as a shocker to me.
