Chapter 1
PIPER
"Where's Harper? I hate waiting too long; my wedding should have started twenty minutes ago!"
I pouted in frustration; Mr Damon's baritone tone was killing me. "I'm sorry, Sir, I'll go over to Miss Harper now!"
"Let me! And tell Johan to calm the guests down!"
My forehead furrowed anxiously. "I-I will..." I answered anxiously while glancing in various directions to look for Johan.
"Damn, why can't you work when I'm fucking paying you? I have to step in for all this!"
Damon's mood worsened; his wedding day would be a disaster. "I'm sorry, Sir!" My eyes glanced at the other servants so that they gathered together.
As Damon's long legs approached the bride's waiting room, we followed him with alert steps.
"You guys should have ensured Harper got to the altar on time; what the hell, you've all gathered in the hall without her!" Damon grumbled
Throughout the hall, Damon cursed at us. He just doesn't know how hard it is for us to deal with Harper. They make a great couple, I think. Damon is the notoriously cruel tycoon, and Harper is the spoiled girl with many rules.
"This isn't good; the mega-industry tycoon received something bad on his wedding day, Piper? Are you sure Miss Harper told you to go first? Why don't you take her along?" protested Sonya, the leader of the maid team.
"I'm pretty sure Miss Harper was ready to go down the aisle after I left her!" I answered, feeling guilty. This is my sixth month moving to Monroe Mannor to help Johan and my brother work.
Damon Monroe is as intimidating as the boss, a devil with a handsome face, and damn I fell in love with him. Some of the servants call him Alpha; I don't understand why. I just need to help my brother raise money to buy back the house our parents left behind and pay for my studies.
"Harper, why are you taking so long? Let's hurry to..." Damon trailed off; there was no one in the bridal waiting room.
Damon's olive irises darted in different directions, his chest heaving as he gasped for air. "Fuck!" he grumbled, making us even more anxious.
"What is Damon doing?" I whispered confusedly, the veins in his neck popping out as his face turned red
"For God's sake, where is Miss Harper?" said Sonya, glancing at us individually.
Damon passed us; of course, we were still following his steps. "Now Damon chooses to remain silent," I muttered, no more angry chatter from him.
We turned towards the eastern waiting room; I could feel Damon's anger coursing through his veins. Has something happened?
Damon's strong hands pushed open the brown door with gold floral patterns. We went in without any suspicion, but the sight we saw afterward made us all scream.
"Oh, my God!" I screamed in silence
"Miss Harper? For God's sake!" Sonya let out a scream.
Harper is having sex with Johan on the couch. Harper's position sitting on top of Johan made it difficult for her to move; her body scrambled to fix the mane of her wedding dress, and we were forced to see the chaos on their faces.
"Damon, I can explain; it's not what you think." Harper was half messy; even the locks of her hair that I had seen were beautiful and now tousled.
"Mr. Damon, we didn't do anything; we just…." Johan's words were stopped because Damon had thrown a fist at his cheekbone.
"No!" I screamed in surprise; I couldn't see that. Everything went too fast, and Johan fell to the floor. He grimaced, holding his cheek.
"What has your brother done, Piper? You have awakened the sleeping devil," Sonya scolded me. The other maids whispered, enjoying the show.
Harper touched Damon's arm, tears streaming down her face, mixing with her makeup. "Babe, listen to me, okay? I told you, I can explain this!"
"There's fucking nothing you need to explain to me here, Harper! You fucked my house, butler?"
"I didn't mean it like this. I just was tempted, and..."
"Hah, that's funny!" Johan snorted; he raised his head shamelessly, "Tempted, you say? Why don't you just be honest, Harper? You enjoy making love to me, too!" he said
"Johan, stop!" I rebuked him, "What have you done? Please stop, "I begged desperately.
Johan got me trapped as a servant in that manor and made me pay for all the mess he made for our late parents.
"Stop for what? Honestly, Harper would have married you, Mr. Damon, but she damn wanted my touch and was afraid of losing it, so we made love, and that's called hot love."
"Johan, please! Don't make things worse!" Harper whined; she still held onto Damon's arm tightly. "Babe, don't listen to him, okay? We need to talk!"
"I don't want to talk to a woman who has already made love to a human!"
My brows furrowed; what does the term human mean? My knees lost strength when Damon turned to look at me as if he was going to throw me to hell afterward.
"You took Harper's place in marrying me today!" he said
"Wait, what?" Harper also glanced at me. "Babe, don't joke! You're angry because I fucked a human, but you're going to marry that human woman? Just like that?"
"Yeah, just fucking like that! Oh honey, this is not my anger, but it shows how low your quality is. I'm Damon Monroe, Alpha Coralmoon Pack. I reject you as my mate, Harper, and I'm marrying Piper Prescott today."
Two men came after him. One of them is Luther, who I know as Damon's assistant. I'm still stuck in a place of disbelief at this situation.
"Get Piper ready in her wedding dress!"
"Mr Damon, without prejudice to my respect for you, but I can't possibly…." I said I was worried
"I will kill your brother without hesitation, Piper! The choice is yours!" Damon didn't threaten, but he would.
My eyes turned to Luther, who had pulled Johan's hair, made him kneel, and put the tip of the knife against Johan's neck. Again and again, my body shook in fear.
"Damon, think again! You will regret the decision you took in this angry state." Harper was still trying to persuade him
"Am I the one who asked you to betray and destroy everything? I want a wife to maintain the family tradition and control my inheritance! So nothing can stop me from that!"
"But sir, I can't possibly marry you because..." I'm confused about this.
"That's right, sir; Piper is only a C-class maid in our Mannor, so…." Sonya tried to enter the conversation, but it was no use
"LUTHER!" Damon's tone rose; his assistant just nodded his head, and he stabbed the tip of the knife into Johan's neck
"NO, wait, stop!" I screamed anxiously.
Johan grimaced with his eyes closed. "Piper, you want me to die, huh? Obey his orders, damn bitch!" he said, scared. Am I the one causing problems here?
Damon dragged me, "Be a good sister to your brother, and come with me down the aisle, NOW!" I don't know what will happen to me after this, even though I'm secretly in love with Damon.

Not loving him will cost more.
Derek has one goal: survive high school without drawing too much attention or pissing off his pack’s alpha.
As the youngest son of the alpha, his life is governed by lycan hierarchy, tradition, and politics. With no signs of awakening a lycan spirit, his only value is what he can do for the pack’s image. He knows he’s only ever one misstep away from exile… or worse.
Then, he finds a boy trapped in a locker on orientation day, and everything changes.

So why does it feel like he’s the only thing worth fighting for?
Nikolias has just lost everything: his parents, his home, and any sense of peace. Sent back to the town his family left years ago to live with his prejudiced and controlling uncle, who wants nothing to do with anything—or anyone—not human, he’s trying to do everything in his power to get out quickly.
But then he meets Derek again, and all of his plans vanish in the soft, yearning flecks of gold in Derek’s green-hazel eyes. He’s drawn to Derek in a way that’s impossible to deny, and he thinks Derek feels the same way, despite the danger their relationship holds for him.
As Moonshadow's politics turn deadly, Derek and Nikolai are caught in the crossfire of a war that had started long before they were born, and their bond becomes a threat and a lifeline that neither can afford to sever.
Because the heart wants what it wants….

King of the Underworld
However, one fateful day, the King of the Underworld appeared before me and rescued me from the clutches of the most powerful Mafia boss's son. With his deep blue eyes fixed on mine, he spoke softly: "Sephie... short for Persephone... Queen of the Underworld. At last, I have found you." Confused by his words, I stammered out a question, “P..pardon? What does that mean?”
But he simply smiled at me and brushed my hair away from my face with gentle fingers: "You are safe now.”
Sephie, named for the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone, she's quickly finding out how she's destined to fulfill her namesake's role. Adrik is the King of the Underworld, the boss of all bosses in the city he runs.
She was a seemingly normal girl, with a normal job until it all changed one night when he walked through the front door and her life changed abruptly. Now, she finds herself on the wrong side of powerful men, but under the protection of the most powerful among them.
Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.
The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...
The Contract Wife: Marriage Of Malice
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.
When her brother Theo faced twenty-five years in prison for massive embezzlement, the ruthless business tycoon James Lancaster offered her a deal: marry him in exchange for her brother's freedom.
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.

"What?"
