Elise
-Dark Moon Pack-
It’s about 5 o’clock in the morning and I have yet to get out of bed. Too comfortable to leave the safety of my king size bed. Mmmm, I moan my bed feeling like that of a cloud as I continue, knowing father would eventually come looking for me soon. As he always did.
‘Elise, an Alpha in training should neve stay in bed. One should be up and checking on her people’ replies Elza, my wolf, always a stickler for the rules.
‘Relax Elza. Father always lets me rest. Besides, we have to pack for our journey to the Moon Walker Pack. Their pack is hosting the annual mating ball and I’m hoping to find our mate there. Father isn’t how he used to be since mother died and wants to hand over the pack to me, except the council wants all future heirs to have their mates, chosen or not’ I tell her, knowing that to be true.
‘Do you really think we’ll find our mate?’ asks Elza.
‘Yes. Yes I do. I believe that the Moon Goddess had blessed everyone with a mate, regardless of how small things might seem’ I say.
‘Plus, after all, rumor has it that the Alpha twins of the Mystic Shadow pack will be there as well as they have yet to find their own mate’ I add, moving to roll out of bed finally.
‘Do you think either of them could be our mate?’ asks Elza, curiously.
‘I wouldn’t hold our breath on that. The twins are cute but the chances of us being paired up with them will be slim. I’ll be grateful if they continue to keep our alliance going’ I say moving to enter my huge spacious bathroom.
My bathroom, decked out in beautiful white marble with tiny hints of silver, rich ivory color walls with hints of blue giving it that ocean beach coastal vibe as the smell of fresh air and open water has always brought me comfort. Maybe that was why my family owned a beach house just off the coast.’
Shedding my clothes, I move to enter my overly large shower as today was the day I would be heading for the Moon Walker Pack. Turning it on, I move to set the water temperature to my liking before moving to wash my hair and body as well as shave any unwanted body parts as I might be a wolf but that didn’t mean I had to look the part.
Washing, I move to let my mind wonder, wondering who would be my mate. Would it be a he or a her? As I went both ways but I know in an ideal setting a male would be preferred. Then there was the whole part on whether or not they would be okay with being my Luna as I was already an Alpha and didn’t plan on changing that either.
Giggling, I move to think back to a male being my Luna as never in all my life was there a pack to ever have a male for a Luna, but of course not many packs had a female Alpha either. Only mine and Snow Moon had female Alpha’s while the other remaining packs aside from Moon Valley were all males.
‘Talk about narrow minded people’ muses Elza as I move onto shampooing my hair.
‘Your telling me. But in a world where most of our society is dominated by males, it’s hard for them to accept a different social norm’ I explain, having finished my morning routine and now shutting off the water before grabbing a towel off the bar.
Once wrapped in a towel, I move to exit the shower tiny droplets of water dripping from my long blonde hair as I move to walk over to the sink. Grabbing my toothbrush and toothpaste, I move to brush my teeth, a knock now on my door alerting me to a visitor.
“Yes?” I called, once my mouth was empty of toothpaste.
“Sweetheart, it’s daddy, are you almost finished?” calls the voice of my father. Alpha Sebastian or Seb as most people called him. But to me he was always my daddy as I was his little princess.
Smiling, I move to answer. “Yes father, I’m just finishing up, I’ll be right there soon”.
“Okay sweetheart” replies Alpha Sebastian, a soft cough catching Elise’s attention. Frowning, Elise waits until her father is gone before rushing for her closet.
‘He doesn’t sound well today’ replies Elza.
‘No. Ever since his fight with the Sky Pack and the Rogue King, father hasn’t been the same. Which is why he desperately wants me to take over the pack’ I tell her sadly.
‘For what it’s worth, you’d make an excellent Alpha’ chimes Elza making me smile.
‘Thanks Elza. You're the best wolf an Alpha could ever ask for’ I say, grabbing a white lace bra and panty, a white silk blouse with cap sleeves and a cute denim skirt before grabbing a pair of wedge heels. The heels making my 5 '9 height a close 5' 10 / 5 '12 with the added height.
Once dressed, do I move to style my hair and makeup. Keeping my makeup light and airy, I move to focus on the eyes more than anything, giving them a little bit of color before adding a pop of color to the lips, a pink tinted lip gloss finishing the look.
With makeup done, do I carefully move to place my hair into a messy bun. Not feeling the need to style it as I would be journeying later to the Moon Walker Pack I really didn’t see a need to do it.
Satisfied with my look, I move to find my father, my father currently in the family room of the pack house. “I’m here daddy” I say as I move to kiss his cheek in greeting before moving to sit with him.
Our home is modest compared to many. For while some packs hold over the top pack houses, our pack kept things simple. The actual pack house was only for meetings, gathering and eating. And of course guests that might come from time to time.
As for the rest of our pack, each member had their own home. That included all the Omega’s, the Warriors along with my Beta, Delta and Gamma. Even my father and I had a modest home, yet still bigger than most as we were the Alpha’s of Dark Moon so it was only fair we had the bigger house.
“Aw, sweetheart, good morning to you too. So happy you could join me” says father with a smile as he moves to look at me like he always did.
“For you, I’ll always find the time,” I say with a smile. “Now how about breakfast?”
“Breakfast sounds lovely dear” answers father as we move to enter the kitchen, father sitting at the table while I move to handle the cooking.
“An order of bacon, eggs and hashbrowns coming right up dad. The usual toast and coffee on its way” is all I say as I begin my daily routine as Omega’s rarely stepped into our home unless it was to clean it, otherwise the cooking fell to me which was fine as it brought me and my father closer together.
“Sounds wonderful sweetheart” smiles father as I carry on with my task.

COLD (Ruthless Player)
“Please… Nick, wait.” He pulled out, thrusted back in. “How much? Twenty thousand? Fifty? Hundred?” With every question, he thrust harder and harder. My neurons are frying with the confusing feeling in my brain. Torn between pleasure, fear, and panic. I couldn't utter a single sentence to save my life.
His cold eyes pinned me in place while he plundered my body with deep thrusts, which only added to my confusion. My dumb body mistook the mixed signals, my pussy becoming even wetter than before.
“I hope she'd paid you well, because I'm going to fuck you all night long, hard,” he growled. “Sleep, then do it all over again. I want to feel you come for me, Andrea, want to feel you squeeze my cock, milking me.
Begging for me to give you the high only I can, I'm going to fucked you until I fuck all my wife's money's worth, I want you to remember how hard I took you while you're meeting her.” I sobbed, moaned, and tried to scramble out under him.
“No, please…Nick, let….let me explain.” Nick abruptly pulled out. His eyes were cold but hooded.
Andrea was sent to take down billionaire magnate Nicklaus Montgomery.
Her mission was simple: get close, seduce him, find the proof, and disappear. Instead Andrea finds herself exposed—cornered into signing a contract that binds her to Nicklaus's side as his lover. Now she’s living in his world of wealth, danger, and secrets… and the deeper she falls into his bed, the harder it becomes to remember what side she's on.

In Bed With My Ex's Brother-in-Law
On the day her ex, Mark, married the wealthy socialite Bella, Elena was thrown out with nothing but the clothes on her back—humiliated, broken, and utterly alone.
Until Eric Thompson appeared.
Bella’s older brother. Mark’s powerful brother-in-law. And the most feared Alpha in the city.
He offered her a hand when no one else would. Then, he offered her a deal:
A marriage in name only. A shield against her past. A chance to rebuild.
Elena accepted, expecting a cold arrangement between strangers. But behind closed doors, Eric’s carefully guarded control unraveled—and so did hers. Their chemistry was explosive, their nights intense, and the lines between business and pleasure blurred beyond recognition.
He was the one man she could never have… and the only one she couldn’t resist.
But when Mark realizes what he truly lost, and Bella discovers the secret behind her brother’s bride, Elena must decide:
Is this just a contract?
Or is this the love she was always meant to fight for?
BROKEN TRUST
Neither of them knew she was carrying his child.
Emily’s affair didn’t just end her marriage—it erased the life she thought was guaranteed. Ryan left without looking back, carrying his anger like armor and leaving Emily alone with regret she would never outrun. Three years later, fate drags them back into each other’s world, along with a little girl who has Ryan’s eyes and a truth that shatters everything he thought he knew.
Old wounds reopen, grief masquerades as rage, and love refuses to stay buried. As parenthood binds them together and the past demands accountability, Emily and Ryan must face the question neither of them is ready to answer: is broken trust the end of their story… or the beginning of a love forged through loss, forgiveness, and brutal honesty?
From Substitute To Queen
Heartbroken, Sable discovered Darrell having sex with his ex in their bed, while secretly transferring hundreds of thousands to support that woman.
Even worse was overhearing Darrell laugh to his friends: "She's useful—obedient, doesn't cause trouble, handles housework, and I can fuck her whenever I need relief. She's basically a live-in maid with benefits." He made crude thrusting gestures, sending his friends into laughter.
In despair, Sable left, reclaimed her true identity, and married her childhood neighbor—Lycan King Caelan, nine years her senior and her fated mate. Now Darrell desperately tries to win her back. How will her revenge unfold?
From substitute to queen—her revenge has just begun!
Underwater: The Silent Luna
It sounded like fate. Like rescue. Like the moment the universe finally chose her.
Even with the suspicion clinging to the proposal, Meadow let herself believe it. She stepped into the marriage blindly, hoping love would fill the quiet spaces of her mute, colourless life.
But the truth comes fast, and cruel.
The Alpha never asked for her. Never wanted her. Luna Amber arranged everything without his consent, driven by selfish motives Meadow couldn’t see until it was too late. What should have been tender and sacred becomes a cage, and Meadow is trapped in a nightmare she can’t wake from.
Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."
Cursed Beauty and her Three Alpha Mates
Cast out by her pack for being wolfless and plagued by uncontrollable heat, Maya has spent her life surviving humiliation in silence.
Fate drags her into the path of Kael Draven, the ruthless Lycan King who claims her… only to reject her.
But Kael is not the only Alpha bound to her.
Finn, her childhood best friend and the rising Alpha, loves her with a devotion so fierce, he spends four years locked away in the most ruthless dungeon only to keep her safe.
Xander, a rogue wolf who can make even Alphas bow to his will, has waited centuries for her to be reborn, and he has no intention of losing her again.
Three Alphas.
Three claims.
One cursed destiny.
They called her wolfless. They thought she was weak. But she is done hiding, and this time, she's rewriting the rules.
Taming Her Playboy Bully
Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother
"What is wrong with me?
Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?
It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.
He’s my boyfirend’s brother.
This is Tyler’s family.
I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.
**
As a ballet dancer, My life looks perfect—scholarship, starring role, sweet boyfriend Tyler. Until Tyler shows his true colors and his older brother, Asher, comes home.
Asher is a Navy veteran with battle scars and zero patience. He calls me "princess" like it's an insult. I can't stand him.
When My ankle injury forces her to recover at the family lake house, I‘m stuck with both brothers. What starts as mutual hatred slowly turns into something forbidden.
I'm falling for my boyfriend's brother.
**
I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
