Chapter 1
A basin of cold water hit Zoey King's face, making her shiver and snap her eyes open. Her whole body felt like it had been run over by a truck, and a bunch of loud, angry voices erupted around her.
"You shameless girl! How could you do this to Mr. Scott?"
"Zoey, how could you? You're about to get married!"
"Disgrace! You've shamed the King Family!"
Zoey's head pounded from all the noise. She looked down and realized she was only in her underwear. Her neck and exposed skin were covered in big, obvious hickeys.
Memories began to resurface as Zoey massaged her temples, eventually remembering the wild events of the previous night.
She had been drugged with some aphrodisiac at the bar and had fought off some creepy guys with everything she had.
In her daze, she had stumbled into this room. The next thing she knew, she was in the arms of some guy.
In her dazed state, she couldn't recall the guy's appearance. She only remembered grabbing him, and then feeling his hands all over her.
When she woke up, the guy was gone, but a big crowd had gathered at the door.
Zoey looked up and coldly stared at a familiar face in the crowd—Luna King, her sister, the mastermind behind everything that happened last night.
If Luna hadn't messed with her drink, Zoey wouldn't have ended up in this room and lost her virginity.
Noticing Zoey's dark glare, Luna looked away and grabbed the arm of the stern-faced Brian Scott.
"Brian, I'm so sorry. Zoey has always been a bit of a wild one, and we've tried talking to her many times. I never thought she'd be so bold as to ignore your engagement and sleep with another man. It's the King Family's fault for not keeping her in check..." Luna's eyes reddened, and she bit her lip.
Behind her, Zoey's father, Timothy King, and her mother, Hazel King, were also furious, looking at Zoey like they wanted to tear her apart.
"Zoey! Get over here and apologize to Mr. Scott!" Timothy gritted his teeth.
"I've always said we shouldn't have brought her back. She should've been left to fend for herself in that poor, remote village!" Hazel wiped her tears in anger, as if Zoey wasn't her biological daughter but her mortal enemy.
Zoey's lips curled in mockery, but her heart remained unmoved. These were the parents her master insisted she return to honor.
They cherished Luna, their adopted daughter, as if she were a treasure, while constantly making life hard for their own biological child.
Zoey now regretted listening to her master and coming back to be bullied by these people.
Half a year ago, the King Family had sent people to Whispering Pines Village to bring her back, claiming she was the long-lost true daughter of the King Family.
Zoey hadn't wanted to reconnect with this family, but her master, Saul Pena, had persuaded her, so she agreed.
Since returning to the King Family, she had been met with disdain at every turn. Timothy and Hazel didn't like their rough, country-bred daughter, but they doted on the delicate Luna. Their favoritism was extreme!
Zoey put on her clothes, ignoring the almost furious stares from the crowd, and stood up calmly.
Brian took a step forward, his eyes blazing with anger. "Zoey, do you even care about our engagement?"
Zoey looked at him, a mocking smile on her lips. "Brian, shouldn't I be asking you that? What were you and Luna doing at the bar last night? Do you think I didn't see?"
Brian's face stiffened, and his expression became unnatural. "You're lying about me! You're the one who cheated, and now you're blaming me and Luna? That's just low!"
He turned to Timothy and Hazel, "I don't think this marriage should happen! The Scott family doesn't need a woman like her!"
Timothy and Hazel immediately panicked. Hazel forced a smile, afraid of losing this good match. "Brian, don't be hasty. This is Zoey's fault, and we'll discipline her. The King and Scott families arranged this marriage a long time ago. Please think it over."
Brian glanced at Zoey, then turned and gently took Luna's hand. "Timothy, Hazel, to be honest, I've always loved Luna. We've been together since childhood. Now that Zoey has proven unfaithful, I think the engagement should be between Luna and me."
The two gazed at each other affectionately, ignoring the shocked faces around them.
Zoey had finished dressing and looked at the text message on her phone: [Dr. K, everything's ready for the experiment. Director Aaron Hill has arranged a pickup for you, and they should arrive soon.]
Zoey had no time to waste on these fools. As she walked towards the door, Luna grabbed her. Turning around, Zoey saw Luna's tearful face, as if she had been greatly wronged.
"Zoey, where are you going? Are you mad because of my feelings for Brian? It's my fault. I shouldn't have fallen for him. I'm not asking for your forgiveness, just that you don't stand in the way of us being together..."
Another round of tears. Zoey was tired of this act. Since returning to the King Family, Luna had pulled this stunt countless times.
Every time Luna shed a tear, the entire King Family would side with her. This time was no different.
Zoey frowned and impatiently shook off her hand. "I don't have time for your drama. Get lost!"
The next second, there was a cry of surprise as Luna fell backward and hit the ground hard.
Brian rushed to help her, glaring at Zoey with anger. "Are you crazy?! How dare you hurt your sister?"
Timothy and Hazel were also furious.
But Zoey just smirked and walked towards the door.
Timothy's angry shout came from behind her. "You wretch! Where are you going?"
Zoey paused, slightly turned her head, and smiled calmly. "I'm going to find the handsome guy I slept with yesterday! Brian has found a new love, so why can't I?"
Timothy's face turned ashen and his fingers trembled as he pointed at Zoey's departing figure before he rolled his eyes and fainted.
Ignoring the commotion behind her, Zoey walked out of the hotel.
Outside, a group of men in black stood in neat rows, exuding a powerful aura.
As soon as Zoey stepped out, the men in black bowed in unison, their voices loud and clear. "Welcome, Dr. K!"

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."
New to the world of shifters, Draven is human on the run. A beautiful girl who no one could protect. Domonic is the cold Alpha of the Red Wolf Pack. A brotherhood of twelve wolves that live by twelve rules. Rules which they vowed could NEVER be broken.

Iron And Glamour Just Don't Mix
Well… Sometimes you just might turn out to be right.
It turns out, the fae stole my little brother. In his place? A pixie with boundary issues and a talent for home repairs.
I’ve spent my life taking care of everyone else. So when my baby brother is taken, I don’t hesitate. I walk straight into a faerie mansion and make a bargain with its infuriatingly charming master.
Kie is everything you’d expect from a dangerous fae, beautiful, political, and entirely too amused by me. Power wrapped in a smirk. Sensual, mischievous, and far too aware of the effect he has on people. He agrees to help me find my brother.
For a price.
Now I’m bound by a faerie bargain and navigating a world of glamour, manipulation, and ancient rules I definitely should have learned sooner, enchanted forests, political games, magical contracts, and a fae lord who treats seduction like a perfectly reasonable negotiation tactic.
Iron is how I keep people out.
Glamour is how he draws them in.
And apparently, they just don’t mix.
Reborn 14 Years later: Fix My Broken Family
At least, that's what everyone believed.
One moment, she was trapped inside a sinking car beneath the icy waters of the Hudson River. The next, she woke up in her own bathtub and somehow fourteen years in the future.
Her husband is no longer the warm, easygoing man she remembers.
Her five-year-old son is now a nineteen-year-old stranger who looks at her with suspicion.
Her twins barely remember the mother they lost—one forever chasing affection, the other keeping the entire world at arm's length.
And the family she left behind has become something broken, distant, and unrecognizable.
Now Isabella faces an impossible challenge: rebuilding a family that never truly recovered from losing her.
Fourteen years have left scars on everyone.
Unfortunately for those causing the damage, Isabella Winston has returned to set things right.
Where I End and She Begins
But when a body lies at Amelia’s feet, and her hands are covered in blood that isn’t hers, one question echoes louder than the rest:
How did it come to this?
As the school year unfolds, cracks begin to show — in friendships, in family, and in Amelia’s own mind. The lines between loyalty and control blur. Between truth and perception. Between who she is… and who she thinks she needs to be.
Because some friendships don’t just shape you.
They consume you.
And when the illusion shatters, there’s always something left behind.
Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?
