Chapter 1
GWEN
"Are you sure you're ready, little rabbit?" Talia teased me mockingly, slowly walking around me.
I didn't answer. I didn't need to.
I was here to survive.
I was here because the Gamma gave me no choice.
EARLIER THAT DAY
"You know what happens if you don't fight", Gamma Evan growled. " You'll lose your housing, your ration and your damned life".
"I shouldn't be here" I muttered, barely loud enough to be heard.
"But you are," he said grinning. "And you'll fight. Because if you don't. I'll make sure I send you to your parents in hell."
I had no choice. This was what it was. A fight for survival. For the right to remain useful.
I stood on one side of the training pit.
Talia stood on the other side, taller, broader and smiling with malice swirling in her eyes.
I know she wants to kill me. I can feel it.
The signal horn blared.
Talia came in fast, no hesitation, no mercy. I ducked under the first blow, but the second glow got me in my jaw, snapping my head sideways. Blood filled my mouth. I staggered but did not fall.
The crowd was going wild. Wolves of every rank gathered to see who was stronger. A sick game.
I wiped my mouth and stood straighter. My hands trembled, I knew this wasn't about dominance. It was about humiliation.
Talia swung again. I ducked and drove my fist into Talia's ribs. A clean hit. The crowd shouted.
"I'm not weak" I said to Talia.
She stood up quickly and grabbed me by the shoulders and slammed me down on the ground. Her elbow crashed into my stomach. The crowd went wild.
She hit me repeatedly.
Once..twice…
I gasped, stars bursting in my vision.
I reached for air. Reached for anything.
I was going to die.
All of a sudden, a loud growl echoed through the arena.
Beta Archer jumped into the training pit.
"Enough!"
He shoved Talia off me with a force that sent her rolling into the dirt. The crowd erupted in confusion. Some shouting protests, others still cheering.
Talia scrambled to her feet. I lay there. Breathing hard.
"Fighting's over. Everyone get lost!" Beta Archer's voice rang through the pit.
Everyone started grumbling. They loved pack fights.
As the crowd dispersed, Beta Archer and I were left alone in the pit. He turned to look at me.
"She was going to kill you" he growled.
"I had it under control" I say as I push myself off the ground.
"No you didn't" he snapped. " If I hadn't stopped her. She would have killed you Gwen. You are not built for this. You're soft. You hesitate. That's why I rejected you."
The words struck harder than any blow.
My wolf whined, sad that our mate didn't stand up for us. Not that he would. But she was a hopeless romantic, always pushing for the bond. She still hoped that one day he would punish Gamma Evan for hurting his Beta female and take care of us, but that was just a wild thought.
I looked up at him, " I need to survive".
"God damn it, Gwen, I can't stand to watch you.
Why do you have to be so fucking weak?"
My heart stung, more painful that all the hits. " She shoved me" I try to explain hopefully.
"Shoved you?" Archer scoffed " I don't give a shit. This is why I will never accept you. They say the moon goddess does not make mistakes with a pairing, but she did when she bonded us."
"You didn't even tr—"
"You are just a poor, pathetic maid. The worst day of my life was the day that I found out I was bonded to you". He shook his head in disgust. "Your parents would be so disappointed in what you have become."
"Don't talk about my parents, Beta" I snapped
"Watch the way you talk to your Beta, Gwendolyn." Archer's eyes flashed black for a moment, before returning to their icy blue colour.
"You don't care about me. You know what you are doing. You make me weak on purpose. You sleep with Lily knowing fully well I would feel pain. You make me work day and night leaving me no time to train. I have warrior blood in me. You know I can be strong. But you won't let me.
"Oh I see" He smiled evilly. "You are jealous"
I turn my head away saying nothing.
"Oh Gwen, I can't keep playing this game with you. I don't want you. Lily is going to be my Beta female.
"Just reject me. Mate and Mark her and be done with it"
His eyes flashed. Archer's Wolf seemed restless, not happy with my answer. It was almost as if he wanted me to begin to beg him not to reject me.
"Fine" He cleared his throat. " Don't come begging me afterwards you stupid bitch. I Archer Nicholas Beta of Riverclaw pack reject you, Gwendolyn Hannes as my mate and beta female."
A sharp pain struck my chest, sending me to my knees as our bond shattered every inch of my body.
"I Gwendolyn Hannes, accept your rejection as your mate and Beta female of the Riverclaw pack."
Archer groaned in pain from the rejection as our bond broke into pieces. " You bitch!. Why the fuck would you accept the rejection?"
As I was about to answer, I heard Gamma Evan.
"Aye, Bitch!" He calls out to me from outside the pit.
"Alpha is looking for you"
I got up painfully, holding my chest. I took one last look at Archer and walked away.
The Alpha's chamber smelled of firewood and cedar. I stood still before the Alpha. Bruised.
"You fought well" the Alpha said. " But that is not why you are here".
I straightened my back. This was not a good way to start a conversation
"You are being sent to the Mystic Pack. To Alpha Conan.
I froze " the widowed alpha?"
"His mate died four years ago. He needs a surrogate. His pack is growing restless. He's strong, but…. He needs an heir. You'll give him a child to restore his bloodline.
"Alpha, I can't" I say to him, trembling. Scared but determined.
"You are being given an opportunity" the alpha said. "Protection, food and even a position. You have no family, no claim, Archer has rejected the bond. What are you still fighting for?"
I stood, staring at him before letting out a long sigh. "This isn't a request, is it?"
"You leave at dawn."
He turned his back to me signalling the end of the conversation.
I left without a word. My fists clenched so tightly that my knuckles turned white.
As the door shut behind me, i felt it, the final quiet blow.
I had survived the pit.
But I was still rejected and now being sent away.
Tomorrow, i will be sent to a new alpha.
And I would have to fight to survive again.

My Alpha's Fake Luna
Those were the last words my Alpha whispered before he severed our bond.
I believed our marriage was over.
I was wrong.
For two years, I thought Alpha Michael never loved me.
Every misunderstanding pushed us farther apart.
Every silence broke another piece of my heart.
While another woman slowly took my place.
But everything changed after the death of the Grand Alpha.
My mate began watching me.
Protecting me.
Holding me whenever I fell.
Looking at me like he was terrified of losing me.
If he hated me...
Why did he keep risking everything for me?
And why did everyone panic the moment I finally chose another future?
Love's Deadly Equation
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.
Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.
Bloodright

The northwest trees hold an attention that trees should not be able to hold.

She is the opposite of nothing.
Beneath the campus, three ancient entities are waking up. Every house in the pack world wants to control what runs in her blood. The boy sent to assess her has stopped being able to do his job. And the woman who has been three steps ahead of everyone since before Adaline was born is not a villain. She is a warning. She is what Adaline would have become if nobody had found her.
The suppression field holding everything together is failing. The clock is running. And the only way to stop what is coming requires Adaline to give up the thing she can least afford to lose.
She already knows her answer. She decided before anyone told her the full price.

Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.

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.

Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:

He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.
