Introduction
After weighing my options, I knew that I had no choice but to leave with him.
"I don't want to stay here, but I can't leave without getting answers."
Sean sighed, dragging a hand through his blonde hair. "Fine." He responded reluctantly.
"What do you want to know?" I had a lot of questions.
Zoey's life is turned upside down when she's falsely accused of murder and abandoned by her mate. Saved by a handsome Lycan king, she's drawn into a world of secrets and lies.
But as she falls for him, she discovers a shocking truth that changes everything.
Chapter 1
Zoey Malik
"No, no." My heart was pounding in my chest as I tried to resuscitate him back to life. My clothes were already stained with his blood. "Please, open your eyes." I continued to beg, even though he couldn't hear me.
Soon enough, I heard voices and footsteps coming from outside.
"Help! The Beta is dying!" I screamed as I continued to apply pressure with the torn fabric from my blouse on the wound in his chest.
The door creaked open and I froze as I saw what felt like the entire pack standing in front of me. Before I could say anything, someone from the crowd pointed at me and shouted.
"Zoey killed him. She killed him."
My eyes widened in shock.
No, I didn't kill him.
I was asked to deliver something to him. I found him injured.
I shook my head. "No, I didn't kill him." My voice trembled as I tried to defend myself."I was calling for help, but I didn't want to leave him here."
But the crowd didn't care. My voice was overshadowed by the angry accusations. No one wanted to hear the truth. They had already made up their minds.
A group of men were already walking toward me.
As I realized what was happening, I let go of his wounds and stood up. "What are you doing?" I asked, taking a step back.
Some of the men checked his pulse, while the others held me.
"I am the Luna! You can't do this to me. It's all a big misunderstanding." The desperation in my voice was palpable. "Where's Conrad? You can't take me away."
My chest was filled with terror because I already knew what the punishment for murder was. I couldn't pay for a crime that I didn't commit.
Before anybody could say anything, Conrad walked into the room.
The entire pack went silent.
I felt a little bit relieved to see that my mate was there to save me. I looked up at him, my eyes burning with unshed tears.
"Talk to them, Conny. Tell them that I'm not a murderer."
My voice echoed through the silent room.
Conrad's eyes raked over me from head to toe.
He didn't utter a word until Wendy walked inside the room.
"I told you she was planning to kill him, didn't I?" Wendy said as she interlocked her fingers with Conrad.
Why were they holding hands? He was my mate, not hers!
But then, my chest tightened when I processed what was happening. Wendy was trying to frame me. I didn't kill the beta and I never planned on killing him.
Why was she accusing me wrongly?
"She's lying! I didn't kill him." I continued in a slightly cracked voice.
My head was spinning and I couldn't understand why Wendy would want to frame me.
Alpha Conrad finally cleared his throat and began. "Release her, and the rest of you should leave." I let out a relieved breath I had no idea I had been holding.
"But trust, she will get the punishment that she deserves." He added when he noticed that the crowd murmured, expressing their displeasure.
My heart dropped.
What punishment? I didn't do anything.
After the crowd disappeared, I was left alone in the room with Conrad and Wendy. Wendy clung to his hands like her life depended on it.
"Conny, you can't believe her. I wouldn't hurt anybody."
Conrad scoffed bitterly. "Don't call me that. It's Conrad."
My lips parted in disbelief.
"What? Do you believe her?"
Of course, what was I thinking?
He would obviously believe his first love over me. The same person he had cheated with countless times.
But I couldn't even leave him because I had nowhere else to go. I didn't have parents. Or siblings. I didn't even have many friends.
Selena was the only one I had.
And her family couldn't afford to take me in.
I had to stay with Conrad even though he treated me badly.
Wendy made it clear that she hadn't liked me ever since Conrad and I discovered that we were mates. She continued to make my life miserable in ways both loud and subtle.
And now, a murder accusation? This was the cruelest thing she had done yet. I would have preferred if she continued sleeping with my mate, instead of framing me for murder.
I stared at both of them, still trying to process what was happening.
"I didn't kill him, you have to believe me."
Conrad exhaled deeply. "You know he was my best friend, right?" He raised a brow at me, his voice low. "You fucking killed my best friend."
"No, no, no." I shook my head, the tears I had been struggling to hold back finally started flowing freely. "I didn't kill him."
He looked at me like I was filth. "So why are your clothes soaked with his blood?"
"I was trying to save him. I came here and saw him lying in his pool of blood. I had no idea who did this to him."
Wendy laughed as I explained. "I told you exactly what she would say, right?" She turned to Conrad. "Don't let her fake tears and explanations deceive you."
Conrad nodded and Wendy leaned in for a kiss.
I didn't expect him to kiss her in front of me. But he did, slow and deep.
My stomach twisted in agony.
It was the same pain I always felt whenever he cheated on me with her. As werewolves, when one partner cheats, the other one is left in pain during the whole process.
They knew how much pain it caused me, but they still continued.
"Stop!" I screamed when it became too suffocating.
But they didn't listen to me, they continued until they were satisfied.
Then Conrad looked at me, his eyes filled with hate and anger. "You can deny all you want, but everybody already saw you. And there's no way you can escape your punishment." He said spitefully, causing me to look at him in shock.
"Conrad, you know me so well. I can't hurt anybody." My jaw trembled. "I'm your mate, Conrad."
"You were just a pity mate." He said. "The moon goddess made a mistake."

He used one of his hands to stroke my cheek and tingles erupted everywhere.

.
"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.
"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."
I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.
Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.
"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

A PRINCESS IN DISGUISE; BOUND TO THE ENEMY KING
I fell to my knees, the cold marble digging into my skin. I had studied for years in the flickering candlelight, memorizing every herb and poison to pass the healer's exam. I wanted freedom. I wanted to save my mother from the servant's quarters. I placed second. I thought I had won my life back.
But the King didn't give me a badge of honor. He gave me a death sentence.
"Raven Thorne shall be wed to the King of Grok," he announced, his voice echoing in the silent hall. Princess Ellie, the woman who had tormented me for years, slapped her hands over her mouth to hide her cruel laughter. She was supposed to marry the Beast.

I looked at the King, tears streaming down my face. "I'll do it," I whispered, my voice trembling. "But my mother must be safe."
I sold my body and soul to a monster to save her. But when the carriage door opened and I finally looked into the Beast's golden eyes, I realized the terrifying truth...
He wasn't a stranger. He was the man I met in the woods.

Raised in a starving settlement choked by a vast, unforgiving forest, Lara learned early that survival has a price. To keep her family alive, she became a master hunter—agile, silent, and deadly with an array of mismatched blades. But the forest has eyes, and one evening, the shadows dragged her away.
Nine months later, Lara breaks free from a concrete dungeon, only to find herself stranded in the lawless, rogue-infested wilds of Avers Land alongside four captured werewolf girls.

But a human cannot survive the brutal political landscape of the North, and Rowan openly rejects the bond, dragging her onto a warship bound for a kingdom that views her as a fragile liability.
