Chapter 1
“Can I join you?”
I looked up from my Cosmo drink to the man standing next to me on the bar.
“You’re sitting alone but… you don’t look like you want any company. Or are you just selective?” he asked, his tone unhurried. Familiar, somehow. I heard his voice from alpha male doctors I worked with. Ultra-confident, assured of what he could offer in the table—the operating table in this case—and talked to people like gods.
But I wasn’t in the hospital, worried about losing my job.
I was right here, nursing my vodka martini, waiting for someone exactly like this man. But I didn’t know how exact was exact. He watched me watch him back. He was tall and handsome. Not ordinarily handsome but strikingly good-looking. Deep-set eyes, gaze intense yet relaxed and a straight nose that made his warm expression almost aristocratic. His lips were full for a man, softening his features but, strangely, didn’t put even a tiny dent to his aura of masculinity. His jaw was squared with a subtle dimple to his strong chin. He was hot and sexy.
He was a beautiful man.
He wore a maroon jacket, blue shirt underneath and jeans that looked washed but expensive. Stylishly casual. He smelled amazing and honestly, his careless smile made my knees tremble. His baritone was low yet full and carried over the hum of bar chatter around us. I knew it was deliberate, trying to hook me up with a voice you’d hear right after sex, making me think of rough tumbling in bed. Soft music and the murmur of other patrons deepened the intimate mood between us instead of distracted.
I finally smiled. His eyes focused now, lowering to my assets, his flirty lips letting me know he liked my smile, but more the short, red dress I wore because of the skin it revealed. I felt suddenly hyped up. Sexier. Hotter. Oh, good, he’s a real charmer.
He was exactly exact.
“Sure,” I replied, matching his relaxed energy. “You can join.”
He took the stool next to mine. The usual small talk commenced, every word tinged heavily with suggestion. People who came here wanted one thing and we both knew the game all too well.
“Wanna cum?” he asked after a few minutes of laughter and subtle touches, his thigh lightly knocking mine, finger on the side of my hand, a thumb on my cheek before that question. “Pun… intended.”
His choice of words danced with the invitation in his intense eyes.
“Rough and hard?” I asked.
Fire dilated the black moons of his eyes. “And syrupy sweet in between.”
I went.
He was onto me the moment we were inside the hotel room. Not the fast and furious and rough I was anticipating and wanting, though I changed my mind as soon as his hands were on me, sure and strong. His kiss was gentle, inquiring. The truth was, despite my craving for these carnal conducts in my secret night life, I felt more weird about getting kissed by strangers than being fucked. I would turn my face aside until my choice of the night got it, and he would focus on my body, and I would reward him if he was especially rough.
I liked rough. I liked hard. I liked dirty. More times I didn’t get it. But tonight, this man… I wouldn’t mind if he didn’t deliver because I felt lucky just inhaling him.
But then he kissed me before I could turn my face away—as if I could. I was mesmerized when he slowly lowered his head so our lips would touch, as if he would really stop if I withdrew. I didn’t find out because I let him kiss me, and I was lost in his kiss. I let him kiss me so thoroughly as we shed our clothes, and more when we tumbled on the bed together, his lithe body covering my willowy one. I had given my body to more men than any woman I knew ever did, and my late mother would be turning on her grave if she knew that her delicate and innocent-looking Nyleen was actually a very kinky girl.
But there were men and there were… men. And this man, I would be glad to become anything he wanted me to be tonight because I knew I would thoroughly like it, too.
He raised his head from me, and his eyes glittered in the soft light of the lamp. My heartbeat raced so I tried to calm my breathing. My hands itched to touch him. I was already hyperventilating because of the way he rubbed himself against my body, sensuous and sure. I could feel his cock against my stomach, not so hard yet but already considerably thick. He would be huge when rock-hard. I wasn’t worried that he wasn’t hard yet, or when he’s hard and huge. The time for that had passed. Anything could happen tonight and I wouldn’t worry a thing.
Earlier in the car when we started making out, I cupped and groped him.
“Uuhh… big equipment you carry here,” I teased, encouraged by his low, sexy laugh.
“It shouldn’t disappoint you,” he’d said. “I know how to use it, too,” he added in a way that wasn’t as cocky as it should have sounded, and it made me laugh.
His confidence was the kind that was true to the bones. Instinctive. I wondered how many women he’d broken with this power he possessed. He would try to break me.
His eyes roamed all over me as he changed. Subtle, but it was there. I felt the thrill of knowing crept on my skin, tried to arch my spine. I resisted. I knew, too.
“You are beautiful and you know it, too.” He was teasing me with the truth. I couldn’t help gasping, but I controlled it… stretching it. Making sure he saw I was being careful. And he was attentive. I breathe in again as his other hand rose to caress the side of my neck, where he angled my face towards his. “Now… let’s see what we can do with this beauty here.”
My heart thudded inside my chest. He could twist that neck or grasp it to limit my air. Creepy that I thought that with the way he held me there.
I liked it.
“Yes, please…” I replied.
And he kissed me again, rough now. Deeper. Harder. He slipped my lower lip between his teeth, sucking and sucking until my eyes heated up with tears but I didn’t cry out. His knees pushed my thighs apart, unceremoniously, his knee caps—or patellas—pinning my inner thighs down. It hurt. I winced even as a moan escaped my lips.
I felt his cock, and it was considerably harder now, twitching. I was aroused since we left the bar, and was soaked in the car. But it still hurt, and I still screamed, when his hips withdrew to shove his hard length inside me, cleaving through my inner muscles, roughly. Tears gathered at the side of my eyes. He got harder inside me, thicker. His passage hurt. He was raw.
A sob escaped my lips. He kissed me, one deep kiss before he raised his head and asked in a rough voice. “Did you like that?”
“Yes!” I answered.
He withdrew and pushed in again, no less rough, not slowing down. Just a slight pause at the hilt. And another.
Then he was taking me with fast thrusts, hard, really rough. He angled his hips and I screamed when his thrusts scraped my g-spot each time, too fast and yet not ever gone for a moment. Unrelenting. I got more soaked and he hammered at me and sawed at me, breaking me as he fixed me, each stab a death sentence of life. Oh god, he was exactly exact. He was the man. And I threw my head when my orgasm whipped at me like an angry lash, hitting over and over, my body quaking like bombs were exploding inside, while liquid heat suffused me entirely, my fingers and toes curling in like they were ready to spat out claws.
He did the same thing several times, twisting my limbs and my back in impossible positions that hurt and aroused. Not once did I wondered if he was ever going to cum. When it did, I was already bombed out of my mind. I was probably already riddled with bruises all over my body. But when his heated skin finally parted with mine and air cooled the heavy sheet of sweat on my skin before it reached the sticky wetness between my open legs, I was gone.

My boyfriend skipped our anniversary for her—the girl who called me a whore.
He left me walking home in the dark. When my apartment caught fire, he ignored my calls.
But his uncle showed up.
The one with the scarred knuckles and the cop badge. The one who looked at me like he wanted to burn the world down for me—or maybe burn me down instead.
Now, we live under the same roof. Three people. One bed too close.
Every time my boyfriend touches me, I flinch. Every time his uncle looks at me, I burn.

Is he saving me... or does he just want to own me?
Some fires don't just burn. They consume.
The Unbreakable Oath
The Devil’s Contract: Kiss Me Like A Lie
The air in the ballroom was suffocating, filled with the scent of expensive wine and predatory Alphas. I felt the familiar, terrifying burn start low in my stomach. My suppressants were failing. I am an Omega pretending to be a Beta, and my fiancé, Reign Montgomery, is a powerful Enigma who believes Omegas are nothing but weak whores.
I rushed to the restroom, locking myself in, praying the scent wouldn't leak. My hands shook as I dialed for help, but the door handle turned. Reign stood there. He didn't look at my face; he grabbed my wrist, pulling it to his nose, inhaling deeply. His dark, soulless eyes bore into mine. "You smell different," he whispered, his voice dangerously low. If he finds out what I really am, I’m dead.
Reign Montgomery promised himself he’d never get involved with an omega. Not romantically, not physically, not even by accident. He doesn’t trust them, doesn’t want them, and refuses to let anyone become a weakness.
Soren Fox has lived his whole life making sure no one ever learns what he truly is. An omega pretending to be a Beta, fighting in underground rings just to survive and keep his sister alive.
But one contract drags them into a dangerous partnership of lies, heat, and power, and when Soren is kidnapped, Reign realizes too late that the omega he never wanted has become the one person he can’t live without.

Three years later, fate drags them back into each other’s world, along with a little girl who has Ryan’s eyes and a truth that shatters everything he thought he knew.
Old wounds reopen, grief masquerades as rage, and love refuses to stay buried. As parenthood binds them together and the past demands accountability, Emily and Ryan must face the question neither of them is ready to answer: is broken trust the end of their story… or the beginning of a love forged through loss, forgiveness, and brutal honesty?
Real Heiress, Hidden Boss
On the engagement day, my fiancé slipped a ring on her finger. My parents handed me a train ticket to oblivion.
They celebrated their victory while I disappeared.
What they didn't realize was that letting me go was the worst mistake of their lives.
I am the surgical prodigy saving lives that science deems hopeless. I am the muse of the art world. I am the true heir to a dynasty they couldn't even dream of.
Now, I am back.

They wanted a loyal Luna??

The Rejected Luna’s Rise
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."
Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
