The day I walked into SilverRidge Academy, everyone was staring. At first I thought it was because I was the new girl. New school, new halls, new people whispering behind lockers. I told myself it was normal. Transfers always draw attention.
What I didn’t know was that two of the most powerful boys in school were already watching me.

Talon Blackwell and Nico Thompson Heirs. Untouchable. The kind of guys who treat SilverRidge like it belongs to them and to them, I wasn’t a new student. I was a bet. Two months, that’s how long they gave themselves to see who could win me first.

They watched my every move. The classes I took. The friends I made. The tutoring sessions after school. Every laugh, every conversation, every moment like I was some kind of challenge to conquer .To them, it was just another game, something to laugh about with their friends while they measured my reactions and suddenly every joke felt like a lie. Every look felt like manipulation. Every moment I thought was real became part of their game.

They thought I didn’t know, but the day I found out about the bet was the day everything changed. Because if And if Talon Vale and Nico Devereaux wanted to turn my life at SilverRidge Academy into a competition… Fine, I’d play along, but they were about to learn something very important. I might be the girl they bet on, but I’m not the girl who loses.

Strength is everything in our world. I was born without it.
My name is Maeve Nightwhisper—the royal family’s shame. I can’t shift. I don’t heal like a true Alpha. I was never meant to rule. That future belonged to my twin brother, Reeve.
Until he was poisoned the night before enrolling at Lycan Spirit Academy.
If the academy discovers the heir is dead, our uncle Garson claims the throne by dawn.
So I bury my brother and become him.
I cut my hair, bind my chest, suppress my scent, and enter the all-male academy under Reeve’s name. One injury that heals too slowly, one slip in the communal showers, one crack in my control, and I’m exposed.
The academy is a battlefield disguised as a school. Ranking matches are merciless. Alphas dominate or get crushed. I can’t overpower them, so I awaken the Forbidden Arts—an outlawed technique once practiced only by women of my bloodline.
They call me weak.
Until I start winning.
Now Alaric, the Academy’s Sword Bearer, watches me like prey. Dorian, the potions prodigy, looks at me like a secret he’s desperate to uncover.
Then the Mate Bond snaps.
If they discover I’m Maeve...
The throne won’t be the only thing I lose.

Soraya Valeo has always been the wrong kind of alpha. A she-alpha born to two powerful alphas, yet weaker than even an omega. A twin, but the defective one. Where Bianca shines, Soraya is barely existent. Where Bianca shifts with grace, Soraya gets sick at the slightest push of her wolf. And because of their rare shared genetics, they share a mate too.

Everyone expects Kaelion Marcellus to choose Bianca. So when he does, it hurts Soraya, but it does not surprise her.
Heartbroken and done being the family disgrace, Soraya makes a single reckless promise to herself, for one night, she would let herself feel wanted.

The club she runs to is closed. But the man she finds there is not. A dangerously compelling stranger and a night in the backseat of his car that leaves claw marks on his leather and her soul.

Three days later, Soraya arrives at Wolfrite Academy with a new look, a new resolve, and a spark of pride she fought to earn. And then she sees him again. Her stranger is no ordinary alpha. He is the Alpha of Iron Fang. The Alpha of Alpha's.

And her ex-mate's father.

As murders begin to shadow the academy, and Soraya becomes the prime suspect, visions, secrets, and raw desire collide.

Is she truly the monster in her head?

Or does this academy have far more in-store for her than she thinks?

Ariel was looking forward to her arranged marriage as the perfect princess, only to discover that she was being seen merely as a surrogate. Determined to escape the impending wedding, Ariel found herself with nowhere to turn. Her brothers helped her disguise as a boy, and she entered the mysterious and formidable Alpha Academy. To her surprise, Ariel stumbled upon her mate within its walls, and not just one … but more? However, her outward identity remained that of a young man… Will her true identity be uncovered, and can Ariel survive the harsh trials of Alpha Academy?

"How pathetic of you, Aspen. Falling in love with your mate’s murderer. Worse still, he doesn’t love you, he only sees you as a key to getting what he wants."


On the day her mate was supposed to return and take over as Alpha, Aspen watched his murder happen over FaceTime.
She swore to avenge him, but she has no idea who the killer is or where to start.

To find answers, she disguises herself as a male and joins an academy meant for Alpha heirs. Everything goes as planned until she meets Ronan Cross, her second chance mate. But he’s already betrothed to a jealous Alpha’s daughter who would kill to keep him.

When rumors spread that an Omega is pretending to be an Alpha, Aspen’s secret is in danger. Now she must hide her identity, find her mate’s killer, and resist the man whose voice sounds just like the one she heard the night of the murder.

When the truth comes out, will she choose love or vengeance?

A string of brutal murders has bodies piling up in Brooklyn, and Detective Frankie Donovan knows what is going on. Clues left at the crime scenes point to someone from the old neighborhood, and that isn't good. Frankie has taken two oaths in his life—the one he took to uphold the law when he became a cop, and the one he took with his two best friends when they were eight years old and inseparable.  Those relationships have forced Frankie to make many tough decisions, but now he faces the toughest one of his life; he has five murders to solve and one of those two friends is responsible. If Frankie lets him go, he breaks the oath he took as a cop and risks losing his job. But if he tries to bring him in, he breaks the oath he kept for twenty-five years—and risks losing his life. In the neighborhood where Frankie Donovan grew up, you never broke an oath.

I walked into my boyfriend's dorm to surprise him, but the sounds coming from inside shattered my soul before I even opened the door.

"God, Jace, right there!" My best friend’s voice. The girl I trusted with my life. My hand trembled on the doorknob, but I had to know. I pushed it open. Lila was straddling him, her head thrown back in ecstasy, riding the boy who swore he loved me. They didn't even stop when they saw me. They just... kept going.

I ran. I ran until my lungs burned, only to find my world destroyed again. My parents—the Alpha King and Queen—slaughtered in our own castle. Blood everywhere. And just like that, I was an orphan. A "wolfless" freak with nothing left.

I transferred to Keane College to hide, to survive. But I didn't expect Him. Calix Hawthorne. The Alpha’s son. The most dangerous wolf on campus. When our eyes met, my wolf screamed one word: MATE. But he looked at me with cold, dead eyes and walked away.

Now, I’m the target of the school’s queen bee. They put wolfsbane in my shoes, burning the skin off my feet while the whole school laughed. I am broken, bleeding, and alone. But they forgot one thing: Even a broken wolf has teeth.

I ran by hands down his broad shoulders, squeezing his firm biceps.

“Like what you see Princess?” Aphelion asked, a cocky smirk on his face,

“Just shut up and kiss me.” I replied back as I lifted my hands off of his arms and wrapped them in his hair, pulling him down towards me.

Allison was never meant to survive. She was born a siphon and hidden away like a mistake the world was waiting to break. The Council planned to shape her into a weapon or erase her before she became one. She was supposed to disappear quietly; another tragedy folded into the past. Instead, she lived, she thrived. When the truth of her bloodline comes to light, Allison’s carefully held world fractures, and power spills through the cracks whether she’s ready for it or not. She steals the magic she needs. She survives the way she has learnt. Everything is fine until she captured from the scrub lands and four men begin to orbit her life; each bound by something deeper than choice. Five men. Five obsessions. Five hearts tethered to hers by magic older than the Wall itself.

Hunted, haunted, and newly awakened, Allison is dragged into a rebellion built on blood and belief, the same fight her parents died trying to protect. As enemies close in and desire sharpens into something dangerous, she must decide what kind of power she will become. The weapon the Council always wanted. Or the storm that tears their world apart. When Allison rises, kingdoms kneel and when she loves, she loves like war.

An epic gothic vampire romance set at an ancient academy, where a dean comes face to face with the woman he loved two centuries ago after she's been reborn with no memory of him.


Some love stories are destined to span lifetimes. Some legends refuse to be forgotten. And some secrets have been waiting centuries to awaken.

Welcome to Laraque Academy, where ancient magic walks beside modern life, immortal legends teach the next generation, and one young witch is about to discover that her past is far more powerful than she ever imagined.

Step through the gates. Meet the Laraque brothers. And prepare to uncover a world where every legend begins with a secret.

Katy Riley hoped the prestigious local academy would be a sanctuary for her six-year-old son, John, offering a fresh start after a painful divorce. Renowned for its excellence, the school promised safety and stability. But beneath its polished facade, something is terribly wrong.

Barred from entering the school grounds and unsettled by the iron bars on classroom windows, Katy grows uneasy. John returns home drained, his memories of the day eerily blank, and strange marks mar his small arms. The other children whisper in fear, their silence hiding a chilling truth.

As dread tightens its grip, Katy realizes her son is caught in a web of danger. With time slipping away, she must unravel the academy’s dark secrets to save John—before the sinister forces lurking within claim him for good.

"Get your hands off her, or I will incinerate your cock right off your body."

The air grew thick with testosterone and magic as Zmiyrenan slammed the Vampire King against the wall. I could smell the pheromones rolling off them—spicy, smoky, dangerous. My body, still sensitive from the aftereffects of the aphrodisiac, throbbed in response.

Wilhelm just laughed, his fangs grazing his own lip, eyes dropping to my cleavage. "You can't hide her forever, dragon. I can hear her pulse. I can smell her wetness. She doesn't want a guard dog. She wants a King."

Zmiyrenan roared, his hand gripping my hip so hard it would leave a bruise, pulling my pelvis flush against his hard length. "She is my mate. Her heat is for me alone."

I gasped as the friction sent a jolt of electricity through my core. I was sandwiched between fire and ice, between a beast who wanted to breed me and a monster who wanted to drain me.

Wilhelm stepped closer, ignoring the dragon's flames, and whispered in my ear, his cold breath making me shiver. "Let him have your heart, little flower. I'll take the rest of you. And I promise, I bite."

In a desolate coastal area in Northern Sweden, the cruise ship, Ocean Gala, is docked whilst carrying 1,800 asylum seekers. Far-right groups are gathering on the dock to protest against the floating refugee camp and as a brutal home invader begins to roam the area, the local Chief of Police calls upon a team of cadets from the newly established Scandinavian Academy of Criminal Profiling. This group is led by the aging detective, Conrad Løwe, but its most valuable asset – and biggest challenge – is Nadia Elmkvist. They meet Hampus Cedergren – a local police officer who most definitely does not welcome the group, particularly Nadia and her methods of interrogation.

"You're nothing but bad luck! You're just as vile and worthless as that wretched mother of yours!" My father's roar echoed through the room, punctuated by the sharp crack of his belt.

Through my tears, I tried to defend myself: "That's not true! My mom is a good person—she's a police officer!"

He let out a cold laugh: "Good person? Your mother was nothing but a slut! How dare you talk back to me!"

I turned desperately to my stepmother: "Please, make him stop..."

She just gave me a cold glance and walked away.

The beating continued until he was too exhausted.

When I became an adult, I finally escaped that house of horrors.

I thought that by working through college, writing novels to pay off my loans, life would finally get better.

But then...

I woke up on my neighbor's floor, clutching a blood-soaked knife, with blood splattered everywhere.

Had I killed someone?

This couldn't be happening... I would never hurt anyone!

When everyone saw me as a murderer, when the whole world turned against me...

He was the only one who stood by my side.

"I believe you," his voice rang out firmly in the courtroom.

Why does he want to help me?

As the body count rises and the killer’s gaze turns to her, Emily must unravel a deadly web of betrayal before she becomes the next victim. In this pulse-pounding suspense, every date could be her last, and trust is the deadliest gamble of all. Will Emily unmask the killer or fall prey to the heart she thought she knew?

My dad was a highly decorated narcotics detective. Fifteen years ago, they framed him for corruption and claimed he swallowed his own gun. It ruined our family.
But tonight, everything changed. I was digging through his old evidence box when a heavy, battery-less police radio suddenly crackled to life.
"Pumpkin, I'm bringing a turkey home."
"Dad! Don't go to the motel today!"
Right before my eyes, the ink on his autopsy report physically shifted. "Suicide" twisted into "homicide."

Aslan

I came to Crownwell Academy on a scholarship and a promise to myself:
Keep my head down. Don’t make waves. Survive.
I didn’t plan on standing up for anyone.
I didn’t plan on becoming a target.
And I definitely didn’t plan on catching the attention of Garrett Williams.
The king of Crownwell.
Cruel. Untouchable. Beautiful in the most dangerous way.
Now the school watches my every move. His friends circle like predators. And Garrett makes my life hell in ways I don’t always understand—hot, cold, violent, confusing.
The only safe place I find is with Aitor.
Quiet. Kind. Gentle.
The boy who keeps saving me when things go too far.
But safety doesn’t stop my pulse from racing when Garrett looks at me like I’m something he wants to destroy… or devour.
And I’m starting to realize:
At Crownwell, kindness is a weakness.
And attention can be lethal.

Garrett

I didn’t bring my past to Crownwell.
I buried it.
Here, I’m power. Control. Fear.
Here, no one knows what I was forced to become—or what I still fight not to be.
Then Aslan Rivers walks in, all effortless perfection and amber eyes that drag my attention where it doesn’t belong, in his refusal to break…
He shouldn’t matter.
He shouldn’t exist in my head.
He definitely shouldn’t make me lose control.
So I push him. Humiliate him. Hurt him.
Because if I don’t… I might want him.
And wanting him is dangerous.
I don’t do love.
I don’t do weakness.
But Aslan is a risk I can’t seem to eliminate.
And if he finds out who I really am…
I don’t know whether I’ll destroy him—
Or burn my world down to keep him.

At Nightborne Academy, your bloodline is everything.
Vampires, wolves, witches—they all belong.

Ayla Rowan doesn't.

She thought she was just a human on scholarship. She was wrong. She’s the last of a forbidden bloodline—the Nightborne.
Now, caught between two rival heirs, she faces an impossible choice:

The vampire who claims her touch is his only salvation.
The wolf who would break his sacred oath to keep her safe.

In a world of dark magic and darker desires, Ayla must master her power not just to survive, but to decide—will she be the weapon that destroys their world, or the heart that finally binds it together?

Would she survive Nightborne Academy?
More importantly, whose claim would her heart answer?

For years, Echo McFarland (the "Potion Queen") and Dean Grant (the "Arrogant Heir") were the academy's most famous enemies. Their rivalry was fueled by their powerful fathers: Arthur McFarland, a wealthy businessman with a clean ledger, and Frank Dean, a ruthless High Inquisitor who viewed his son as a mere tool for his own political ambition.
The "War" began to crumble when Echo discovered Dean’s private notebook from their freshman year. The raw, honest entries revealed a boy drowning under his father’s expectations, harboring a secret love for the very girl he was forced to compete against. Realizing Dean was a victim rather than a villain, Echo decided to protect him.

When Aelin finally decides she is ready to restore her family back to Frostville, she learns that the only way she can do that, is by competing in the Games of Zyraeth against skilled Werewolves, and emerge among the top three.

The only problem, is that the top three winners are the only surviving winners.

After training for years, it is now a risk she is willing to take.

Kael, the heir Alpha to Frostville is forced to take Aelin under his wings during the games, he develops a sudden irritation for the omega he has been forced to babysit. Without a clear reason why he should look after a wolf that should easily be his first kill in the games.

But what they don’t know is, Aelin is not an omega. She’s a human disguising as one.

Kael had spent all his life hating humans.

What happens when his inner wolf finds her quite… interesting

And when he realizes his self control is limited around her.

!!!Trigger Warning!!! Multiple triggers, proceed with caution.

"Who told you, you can be mad at me. I did nothing. I am yours and only yours." I let my wolf slip and bite her neck, she melted into me. The anger was gone, she was so turned on, she almost dropped her drink. "Don't ever yell at me..." before I could finish scolding her, she kissed me, our bodies now flushed against each other. She moaned into my mouth when I grabbed her ass and realized there was nothing under her dress. My pants instantly became tighter, she smiled in the middle of our make out session. I pulled back and took a deep breath in trying to relax.

Forced to disguise herself as a male Alpha, Mael knows one thing clearly—if anyone discovers she’s a female omega, she’s dead.
So she keeps her head down… until the wrong Alpha gets too close.
Eli.
The Alpha who walks out of the bathroom completely naked, towel in hand—
and stops.
“You smell… sweet.”
A death sentence. Her pheromones are slipping.
Their next clash is worse—
Eli glancing down with a smirk:
“What? Didn’t grow down there? Tiny, huh?”
Mael glares back.
“Why? Hoping I’d fuck you?”
Eli’s disgusted gasp almost makes her laugh.
“I don’t want a tiny dick in me.”
She fires back,
“Since you’re so obsessed with size, you must be smaller than me.”
He hates that she gets under his skin.
He hates that he reacts at all.
Because as far as he knows, Mael is a boy—and Eli isn’t supposed to want anything from him.
At the same time, the other two Alphas—Calix and Killian—also start paying attention to “him” in ways they shouldn’t.
Can Mael keep her secret?
And what happens when three Alphas fall for someone who isn’t who they think he is?

What if the monster everyone fears is the only one who can save them?

Ryder Knight is the future Alpha King, captain of the legendary hockey team, and the last person I should trust. The moment his wolf recognizes me as his mate, I reject him. I don't need fate deciding my future, especially when the academy is hiding secrets that could get us both killed.

But as students begin disappearing and an ancient prophecy starts to awaken, I realize my sealed wolf isn't a curse—it's the key to a truth someone has spent years burying.

Now I'm caught between a destiny I never wanted, a mate I refuse to claim, and enemies willing to start a war to keep the past hidden.

If fate has already chosen my ending, do I have the courage to rewrite it... or will Knights Academy become my grave?

Chelsea Stewart enters Blackthorn Academy on a scholarship, determined to build a better future for herself and her mother. On her very first day, she clashes with Ryan Ashford, the academy's arrogant top student and heir to one of its founding families.

When they unexpectedly tie as the highest-ranking students, they are forced into the Elite Scholars Program together. Constant competition soon turns into reluctant partnership, and hidden feelings begin to grow.

But Blackthorn Academy hides dangerous secrets. As students start disappearing and dark truths about powerful families come to light, Chelsea and Ryan find themselves caught in a mystery that could destroy everything they know.

In a world built on privilege, lies, and ambition, can love survive the truth?

At Arcane Academy, mundanes are barely tolerated, and she arrives with no magic, no friends, and every reason to be overlooked. Yet she somehow gains a familiar, a black serpent that coils around her ankle and refuses to leave her side. Stranger still, she can understand its hissing voice and answer back. Speaking to snakes is rare even among wielders, impossible for a mortal.

Drake recognizes the truth immediately. He speaks the same lost tongue, a trait from an ancient bloodline thought to have vanished. She should not exist, yet she mirrors him in impossible ways. While the academy doubts her, he is captivated.Because somehow, loving her feels like the greatest spell of all.

My husband's body moved over Celeste's, driving into her with brutal force.
She wrapped her legs around his waist, moaning like she did for her three million followers—except this performance was just for him.
I was her assistant. Her best friend, supposedly. Which is how I knew her passcode.
Now I was wedged in the back of her bedroom closet, phone aimed through the gap in the slats, ready to catch the bastard in the act.
Then Celeste's moans ripped into a scream. The mattress lurched violently. Blood poured down the sheets in thick rivers.
Her head hit the floor. Rolled. Stopped right in front of the closet.
Those wide eyes met mine through the darkness.

“You’re not going back to work.”

“You don’t get to decide that.”

“I do when the man sitting beside you was murdered.”

Stone stepped closer. “Walk out that door, Fox, and I’ll follow.”

“To protect me?”

His jaw tightened. “To make damn sure you come back.”

——————

Getting involved with my biker bodyguard was never part of the plan.

Neither was watching one of his brothers die in front of me.

Now I’m the only witness to Tiny Benson’s murder, someone wants me dead, and Jaxon “Stone” Hayes has decided keeping me alive is his personal responsibility.

Fine.

We can keep this simple.

Casual sex. No promises. No expectations. And absolutely no pretending whatever is happening between us means more than it does.

There’s just one problem.

I’m not giving up Stormie Fox.

For years, I’ve been Stormie Fox, a high-end escort who gets invited into rooms most investigators could never reach. Tiny died helping me uncover something dangerous, and I refuse to abandon the investigation he left behind.

Which means Stone has to do the one thing neither of us is prepared for.

Stand guard while I go back to work.

He says he can handle it.

I say I can keep sex and feelings separate.

We’re both lying.

Because every client I see makes Stone a little more possessive. Every night he spends protecting me makes it harder to remember why we agreed to keep things casual. And the closer we get to the truth behind Tiny’s murder, the harder it becomes to hide the secret that started my investigation in the first place.

Stone thinks he’s protecting me from whoever killed Tiny.

He doesn’t know they’re the reason Stormie Fox exists.

Grace Ainsley is seventeen, broke, and promised to a stranger to keep her mother alive. Then one night her rage shatters a mirror, the air turns cold, and a powerful wolf with golden eyes catches her before she finishes what her instincts started.
Enzo Torres is pack royalty—dangerous, disciplined, and next in line to rule. He should’ve walked away. Instead, he locks his gaze on Grace like he’s just found something he never wanted.

​"Welcome to Blackwood Academy: Here, you’re either the hunter or the prey."
​For Elara Vance, the only way to survive this savage hierarchy was to remain invisible. The bitter potions she consumed for years didn’t just seal her cursed wolf—they marked her as a target, masking her true nature with the scent of "rot."
​But hiding became impossible the moment the school’s ruthless heir, Alpha Kael Draven, locked his eyes on her.

​As fate plays its cruelest hand, Elara is caught between two fires:
On one side, Asher, the school's Golden Boy and her fated mate, who rejected her in revulsion...
On the other, the obsessive Alpha Kael, who shadows her every move, whispering, "You are my disaster."
​With blackmail messages from an unknown number backing her into a corner, time is running out. When the potion fades and the silver-leafed ivy reveals the truth, Blackwood Academy will be shaken to its core.
