Introduction
My plan was perfect. Use our alliance as my shield. Keep my secrets—the art, the healing, the power—hidden until the right moment. But my one miscalculation was him. The man I thought would be my pawn is turning into my addiction.
Now the world is discovering who I truly am, and the line between our game and reality is breaking. He agreed to play by my rules, but now he wants to change them. He doesn’t just want to be my kingmaker; he wants to be the king of my heart.
Chapter 1
River City, night.
A desolate, rundown alley. During the day, it's nearly deserted, and at night, it's even more silent and eerie, devoid of any human presence.
The cold white moonlight spills onto the moss-covered cobblestone path. A stray cat, sniffing around for food, heads deeper into the alley.
Within seconds, the cat's eyes widen in shock, its back arching in fright.
In front of it lies the still-warm body of a young girl.
Malnourished and frail, with disheveled long hair, a filthy T-shirt, and red, swollen marks around her neck.
But then, something even more astonishing happens—the corpse's fingers twitch, and her eyes open.
"Am I reborn?"
The girl slowly sits up from the ground, her pale lips parting slightly, her voice as cold and clear as a bell.
Golden hair flows in the moonlight, giving off an eerie yet enchanting aura.
The name of this body is Amelia Martinez, and from now on, that would be her name.
Amelia tries to stand, but the body is too weak, stumbling with every step. With her current soul's strength, it would take at least a week to heal this damaged body.
Too long.
Just as Amelia feels a pang of disappointment, her nose twitches, catching a scent in the air. Her eyes light up as she lifts her head.
By the roadside, a sleek, black luxury car.
Michael Johnson is sitting inside, waiting for his assistant, Eric Allen, to return with the jade he sent him to retrieve.
The Williams family is hosting a charity auction tomorrow night, inviting the city's elite. Though called an auction, the items are actually donations from the guests' private collections.
The Williams family isn't spending a dime, yet they gain a good reputation and all the credit—truly a clever move.
Michael usually avoids such events, especially since he's not well-liked. But due to the family ties between the Johnsons and the Williams, he has to make an appearance and donate something, out of respect for Vaughn Williams.
As Michael looks down at his phone, he suddenly hears a knock on the window.
He looks up to see Amelia standing outside the car window, her appearance making him pause.
Amelia looks frail, about 5'3", with a small face. Her long hair is messy, and her face and clothes are dirty, obscuring her original features.
A beggar?
Michael hesitates, then reaches into his suit pocket, pulls out his wallet, and extracts five hundred dollars, which he extends through the partially opened window.
However, Amelia doesn't take the money. Just as Michael frowns and looks up, she grabs his hand.
Michael's eyes narrow, and he speaks sharply, "Let go!"
It's not that he minds the dirt; it's just that he's an unfortunate person. If someone with a weak constitution touches him, they could suffer anything from palpitations to a heart attack.
"I won't."
Michael is taken aback by her response. And her grip is surprisingly strong—he can't shake her off.
"I don't want money."
Amelia's voice is firm as she holds onto his hand.
Michael now notices that despite the dirt, her features are quite beautiful. Especially her clear eyes, which shine like glass.
"Then what do you want?" Michael's voice is low and steady.
Amelia suddenly leans in closer, whispering, "I want... you."
What?
Michael's expression freezes, and before he can react, he finds himself unable to move.
In the next moment, Amelia's lips press against his.
As their lips touch, Michael's eyes widen. All he can see are Amelia's slightly trembling eyelashes and feel their breaths mingling.
Five whole minutes pass before Amelia pulls away from his lips.
"Didn't anyone tell you to close your eyes when kissing?"
"Then again, this wasn't really a kiss."
Amelia mutters to herself. She straightens up, looking serious, "Anyway, I kissed you, so I'll take responsibility."
With that, Amelia digs into her worn-out jeans pocket, finally pulling out a shabby coin, which she forces into Michael's hand.
"This is a down payment. I'll repay the rest next time we meet."
"By the way, my name is Amelia."
It isn't until Amelia's figure completely disappears that the force holding Michael in place vanishes.
When Eric returns with the jade, he finds Michael in the backseat, breathing heavily, his chest heaving.
"What's wrong, Mr. Johnson? Are you okay?" Eric quickly asks.
"...I'm fine." Michael takes a deep breath, his eyes swirling with an unknown emotion.
"Eric, help me find someone. Search all of River City if you have to, but find her."
——
Michael, who Amelia had just encountered, carried a heavy and pure aura of misfortune.
Such an aura is intrinsic, a part of one's fate. Those born with it either suppress it to become exceptional individuals or succumb to it, leading to an early demise.
Regardless of the outcome, people with heavy misfortune are dangerous to ordinary people with weaker fates, bringing bad luck if they get too close.
But for Amelia, this misfortune is the fastest way to replenish her soul's strength.
After just five minutes of absorbing it, she feels her body becoming incredibly light, her soul's power coursing through her limbs, even her breathing feels invigorated.
Amelia finds a place to sit, sifting through the original owner's memories. Just as she finishes, the phone in her pocket rings.
Someone is calling.
Amelia brought the phone, an old model displaying the caller's name, marked by the original owner as: [Kevin]
A member of the Martinez family.
Amelia touches her chin thoughtfully.
An hour ago, the person who sent someone to strangle her—was it her never-before-seen "mother," or the sister who's currently involved with her fiancé?

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.

‘I need you tonight’
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.

His Lethal Obsession
He didn't respond but moved his eyes around the room, scanning the place.
"Wha...what are you doing here?"
His icy blue eyes returned to me, sending shivers down my spine. Then further dropped to my dress and then back to my eyes.
"The shit going on downstairs, what does it mean?" he asked, making my legs as weak as they are eager to flee.
"It's....it my wedding,"
He scoffed darkly. "Excuse me?"
I swallowed. "I am......getting married,"
He let out a humorless laugh, looking away and giving me lesser comfort. He looked at me with a demonic frown.
Terror washed me.
