A king bound by ambition. A girl scarred by fate. And a matebond powerful enough to bring a kingdom to its knees. Narine never expected to survive, not after what was done to her body, mind, and soul. But fate had other plans. Rescued by Supreme Alpha Sargis, the kingdom’s most feared ruler, she finds herself under the protection of a man she doesn’t know… and a bond she doesn’t understand. Sargis is no stranger to sacrifice. Ruthless, ambitious, and loyal to the sacred matebond, he’s spent years searching for the soul fate promised him, never imagining she would come to him broken, on the brink of death, and afraid of her own shadow. He never meant to fall for her… but he does. Hard and fast. And he’ll burn the world before letting anyone hurt her again. What began in silence between two fractured souls slowly grows into something intimate and real. But healing is never linear. And love? Love is a war. With the court whispering, the past clawing at their heels, and the future hanging by a thread, their bond is tested again and again. Because falling in love is one thing. Surviving it? That’s a war of its own. Narine must decide, Can she survive being loved by a man who burns like fire, when all she’s ever known is how not to feel? Will she shrink for the sake of peace, or rise as Queen for the sake of his soul? For readers who believe even the most fractured souls can be whole again, and that true love doesn't save you. It stands beside you while you save yourself.

"Lorelai Voss died once.Betrayed by her fated mate.Used by her brothers.Sold to bear a cursed Alpha's heir. But death didn’t end her story.It rewrote it. She wakes up the day before her forced marriage—wolfless, but not powerless. She remembers every lie. Every hand that pushed her into the fire. “You don’t get to tell me who I belong to,” she says, staring down her Alpha brother. “I can save you,” she tells Alpha Keith, the strongest wolf on the continent. “Now you owe me.” This time, she’s not the pawn. This time, she plays the game—and she plays to win. With twisted loyalties, buried secrets, and a slow-burn romance that begins with distrust and ignites into obsession, Lorelai walks the line between justice and vengeance. Will she destroy the monsters who made her… or become something far more dangerous? One thing is certain: The girl they threw away is back— and she didn’t return to survive. She came to conquer."

"Apologize!” Ethan coughed repeatedly. “My wife is the one who deserves your apology, it’s her forgiveness that you need!” “I told you, you’re mine now, and I will not let anyone hurt you. I’ll get them to apologize on their knees”. --- Jane Fitzergald, a 22-year-old medical student and the illegitimate daughter of the Harrison family, was forced to take her half-sister’s place as a substitute bride to the eldest son of the Harrington family, Ethan, a deformed cripple with less than 6 months to live. She dealt with mockery right from her wedding from everyone and was a victim of vicious plots due to her naivety which caused a strain on the relationship with her new husband whom she had already decided to be on good terms with. Unbeknownst to her and everyone else who looked down on her husband, he was not what he seemed. Ethan Harrington knew that she was not his bride but he didn’t mind as long as she stuck to his words, his known health status was a front to cover his escapades. He’s set to unmask some plots but what happens when he starts to fall for his naive wife who shows him the love and care he never got? Will their budding love be cut off or will they weather the storm together?

"I, Valerie Ava Montrell…reject you, Alpha Ronald Ewan, and the Blood Moon Pack as my pack!" "Don't you dare, Omega! You will regret it," Ronald seethed, clutching his chest in pain as the bond snapped. Before he could reach me, Alpha Niklaus stepped forward, lifting me into his arms and striding out. "Keep the girl down, Alpha Niklaus." Niklaus only tightened his hold on me, his gaze sweeping over them. "Valerie is no longer a member of this pack," he declared, before cupping my face with surprising gentleness. "And I am not leaving here without her, because she is my mate." "You are f*ck*ng lying!" Ronald bellowed, a growl vibrating through his chest."Prove to us that she is your mate." My new mate let out a low chuckle. "And how do they prove the mate bond? Will a kiss do?" His eyes locked with mine, asking for permission. My heart raced, but I found myself nodding. Niklaus closed the distance between us and captured my lips in a kiss. My knees went weak instantly, the mate bond surging to life and intensifying what should have been a simple kiss. Mates are supposed to protect each other—but why do mine keep tearing my soul apart? As Alpha Ronald's mate, I thought I'd hit the jackpot. But time proved that it was the worst thing that could ever happen to me. I was left wondering if even the goddess herself had forsaken me. Just when I had given up on everything, the impossible happened: I found another mate, another Alpha. Would he be my salvation—or my downfall? Would he treat me with the care I'd longed for, or would he turn out to be just like the one before him? With my heart still fragile from the abuse I had endured, trusting again seemed impossible. Yet something about this stranger pulled me in, making me wonder: could I finally have the love I deserve, or am I about to face an even greater monster in disguise?

“I, Alpha Kaden of the Black Crescent Pack, reject you, Ella Thorn, as my mate.” I was born cursed—or so my mother used to say. In a world where strength determined your worth, having a weak wolf was the same as having no wolf at all.

Framed for a crime she didn’t commit by the one person she trusted most—her best friend—Ella’s world crumbled the night her mate, Alpha Kaden, rejected her and cast her out of the pack. Heartbroken and alone, she thought her story had ended. But fate had other plans. When a rival pack takes her in, Ella’s hidden bloodline awakens—ancient, powerful, and destined for more than just survival. Now, she’s no longer the broken girl the Alpha abandoned**...** she’s the Luna their world never saw coming. And when the past comes knocking, those who betrayed her will learn the girl they threw away was born to rule.

Until Gwen arrives… and everything begins to unravel. Her scent shifts. Her power grows. And her presence stirs something dangerous inside him. As old bloodlines awaken and secrets rise from the ashes, Gwen discovers she’s more than a rejected mate, she carries the blood of a goddess. Her touch heals. Her voice calms. And her wolf is destined to shine in silver fire. But when betrayal strikes and war threatens the packs, Gwen must choose: return to the shadows that scorned her… or embrace the divine strength that was never meant to be hidden. In a world ruled by fate, she is the choice the moon made. And some bonds aren't written in stars. They are forged in fire.

"The night I discovered my husband's wh*r* was carrying his heir, I smiled for the cameras—and plotted his ruin.

She'll wear her crown of thorns with pride, tear down every lie built around her, and when she strikes, it will be glorious. The Alpha forgot that the woman he betrayed is far more dangerous than the girl who once loved him."

My name is Katia; I want to find my fated mate and live a peaceful life raising our pups. The problem is I have holes in my memories and don’t understand who or what I am. I know I am a werewolf, but I am also something else. Rejection is the last straw! I am not worthy is the reason he gives. The pain doubles me over; my wolf is whimpering in my head, and tears are running down my face. I whispered my acceptance of his rejection and took off running. I ran through the pack house out across the green manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me, and our life has been difficult. She whispers," It's not your fault, Katia." I don't know how long or far we ran, but we came to a cliff with a waterfall. The pain from the rejection is unbearable, and the hurt keeps pounding at me. I know I am missing something. Aza, my wolf, feels it, too; she says we are more than regular werewolves and are here for a reason. We cannot remember the reason. I stand staring at the water running over and down, creating the fall. I wonder what the reason is for the millionth time. Why can I or Aza not remember? Does it have something to do with the way others treat us? The way we have been sent to live with different people since the death of our parents? Does it have something to do with why my fated rejected me? I am tired of figuring out why our memories do not make sense. My sweet girl and I want peace, but we do not know how to obtain it. I stand staring into the oblivion of the pool at the bottom of the waterfall. So I stand there rejected, half a wolf, speaking with my Wolfie, my nickname for Aza, debating what we should do next. Someone was yelling my name from the direction I ran. I do not want to go back there. I hear laughter. Turning, I glance down over the cliff. There is another pack having a barbecue. The adults are laughing and watching the pups play. What looks to be the Alpha, beta, and gamma of the pack are in the water playing Marco Polo with some of the children. They look so happy and carefree. I want that. I wonder if Aza and I ever have a life like that.

I am the Omega of my pack, and the Alpha's son was supposed to be my mate. He didn't know it because he hasn't reached 18 yet. But I couldn't stand the sight of him being with someone else.

However, her world suddenly comes crashing down and her dream is instantly destroyed when the alpha announces that his son (her mate) has found his future luna and his mate, who is the daughter of a neighboring pack's alpha. Unfortunately, Katelyn can't bring herself to say anything. She has kept this a secret for two years and she was waiting for another few months until her mate's birthday, but that day is never coming now. She can't stand seeing her mate with another girl, and she can no longer handle being in her pack. In addition, she can't let her father know, since he is the pack's Beta. What can she do? The only thing that she can think of.... She will keep her secret and run as far away as possible.

"I touch my necklace. Nothing is known about my biological parents. I only have this necklace as an heirloom. The pendant is shaped into a crescent moon with a star on the tip where a diamond lays in the center. Engraved on it is some writing I can't read. Just like my pendant, I also have a crescent-shaped birthmark with a star on my hip. My mom said it might go away in time like most birthmarks do. Mine seems to have become more prominent over the years. I sometimes imagine it sparkles. The wind picks up suddenly, swirling around me and I smell it. The scent of fresh cut grass and wood shavings. Two of my favorite things. ""Do you smell that, my child? Follow it,"" says a woman's voice. I sat there thinking against it. The first time I heard voices, I freaked out my mom. She wanted me to see a psychiatrist because hearing voices isn't a good sign. I explained they were guiding me to do things. My mom said, ""Ok, but before you do whatever these voices tell you to do, sit down and think before you do. AND, if it becomes too much to handle, tell me so we can go see an expert."" So far, whatever I hear, hasn't gotten me into trouble. So why not follow that scent? As the wind picks up again, I jump off the fence and follow the scent. What will Hope find? Is she ready to learn the truth?"
