Chapter 1
*“Ladies and gentlemen, Philippine Airlines welcomes you to Alicante. The local time is 2:00 am. For your safety and the safety of those around you, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened and keep the aisle clear until we are parked at the gate. The Captain will then turn off the “Fasten Seat Belt” sign, indicating it is safe to stand. Please use caution when opening the overhead compartments and removing items, since articles may have shifted during flight.”
“Señoras y señores, Philippine Airlines les da la bienvenida a Alicante. La hora local es las 2:00 am. Para su seguridad y la seguridad de quienes lo rodean, permanezca sentado con el cinturón de seguridad abrochado y mantenga el pasillo despejado hasta que....."
Rian was awakened from her deep sleep by the sound of the PA system signaling their landing.
"You awake?"
She turned to her side and saw Ethan sitting beside her.
Yes," she mumbled. Ethan responded with a bright smile.
"We're here," he said again. She
didn't reply and started to fix her hair.
"You've still got some drool on your right cheek, hehehe," Ethan said teasingly.
"What the heck! Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Rian panicked while finding some tissues in her pocket.
Meanwhile, Ethan leaned closer to her, making her still. He pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the drool from her face.
"Here you go."
Rian looked away shyly while Ethan held in his laugh.
At the airport, a man in a black suit was waiting for them.
"Good morning, Ms. Marian De Castro and Mr. Ethan Dominguez. I am sent by G&G Inc. to escort you to the hotel. Please come with me."
He then walked the two to the limousine waiting in the parking lot. He was also the one who drove the car.
During the ride, Rian asked the man for his name.
"My name's Leonardo Milady, but everyone around me calls me Leon."
"Guess I'll call you Leon too."
"Please suit yourself."
After almost an hour of driving, they reached their destination.
"You said it was a hotel; I never thought it would be a villa." Ethan chuckled.
"I am sorry for the misinformation, sir. But this villa is also used as a hotel by G&G Inc."
Oh, I see."
"This place is pretty nice, though, Rian complemented.
The said villa is located in a hilly and rural area. It is composed of a two-story house, a private pool, a beautiful lawned garden with gravel and trees, and wonderful views of the sea, the valley, the countryside, and the mountains.
"This place is really good, Ethan said while roaming in the living room.
"Yeah, it feels like we're just having a vacation, Rian beamed.
"I'm going to rest in my room first. The jet lag has started to sink in my system" , Rian said tiredly.
Ok, have a rest. Do you need meds? " Ethan asked worriedly.
"Nah, a good rest will do. You should rest; we'll be going on the battlefield tomorrow." Rian smiled mysteriously.
"A battlefield, huh? Ethan sighed as he understood what she meant.
Upon entering her room, Rian immediately headed to her bed and slumped her body on the mattress. She can't sleep because of the jet lag, but her body is dead tired. In her 23 years of existence, this was her first time boarding a plane. She wants to sleep the fatigue away, but she just can't.
Meanwhile, Ethan, who is sitting on a sofa in the living room, is carefully looking at his laptop. He's reading information about G&G Inc.'s executives and owner. Striking a deal with G&G Incorporation is a crucial step in his and Rian's plan. They may succeed tomorrow in convincing them into a partnership. It has been five years since they started this war. Ethan is thrilled to think that they've gotten this far together.
Rian's POV
I'm really tired. While lying on my back, I closed my eyes because I felt like the ceiling was spinning because of my dizziness. Ugh, I never thought jet lag could be this bad. I should shrug this jet lag off because tomorrow's event is very important. I am nervous and excited at the same time. If tomorrow's deal is a success, the war that I started five years ago will come to an end with me as the winner. I can't stop looking forward to that day. When that time comes, I'll finally be able to repay Ethan's kindness to me. But in the middle of these thoughts, I can't help but remember someone I've already chosen to forget. About someone who made me experience a different kind of happiness and pain. He was the one who made me realize that feelings should be set aside for one to achieve his or her goals. Maybe I should thank him for making me the heartless person I have become now. But I hope that I won't get to do that because that means we have seen each other again. And I pray to the Gods and to my mother's soul to not let me see him again.

The Pack: Rule Number 1 - No Mates
"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."

Alpha Twins' Mate's broken Human
A Lesson in Magic
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.
I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
The Forbidden Throb
Mine changed in the time it took to open a door.
Behind it: my fiancé Nicholas with another woman.
Three months until our wedding. Three seconds to watch it all burn.
I should have run. Should have screamed. Should have done anything except stand there like a fool.
Instead, I heard the devil himself whisper in my ear:
"If you're willing, I could marry you."
Daniel. The brother I was warned about. The one who made Nicholas look like a choir boy.
He leaned against the wall, watching my world implode.
My pulse thundered. "What?"
"You heard me." His eyes burned into mine. "Marry me, Emma."
But as I stared into those magnetic eyes, I realized something terrifying:
I wanted to say yes to him.
Game on.
The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.

Luckily, in those four years, the mysterious husband never asked to meet in person.
Now, in the final year of our arrangement, the husband I've never met is demanding we meet face to face.
But disaster struck the night before my return—drunk and disoriented, I stumbled into the wrong hotel room and ended up sleeping with the legendary financial mogul, Caspar Thornton.
