Introduction
"And let me make this clear to you Taylor, if—if at all you have your way with me being your husband...your mate," he corrected.
"I'd make sure I will be with other she-wolves and make sure you feel every pain of betrayal; I'll see to it that you feel how I felt when you killed my Odette," he said, walking closer to me. The back of my throat stung with tears that were already brimming.
Odette has always been the apple of everyone's eyes, even after her death. Meanwhile, Taylor was always overlooked, and hated by everyone. Everyone wished for her death --- including her parents, and Killian, her mate. She never had been loved by anyone, always in her sister's shadow but everything changed after her sister's death. Instead of being simply ignored, she was the object of hate, and to be bullied.
Taylor still bore all the guilt, even though she was the one chosen by the Moon Goddess, until she realised, Killian, who always thought Odette as his future Luna to be his mate turned out to be mated to her! Unable to bear the thought that the mate she always wished for to turn out to be the man, who always hated and taunted her, and even mistaking her for Odette, she was at the breaking point!
Determined, she forced Killian to accept her rejection. But what will happen when Killian realises the truth behind the plot, and instantly regrets it? Will he chase her back? Will Taylor forgive and accept him, or will she never forgive, and be with the man she's destined to be with?
Chapter 1
(Taylor's POV)
“Where's Mrs. Catherine?” I flinched at the sudden question while someone rested her hand on my shoulders.
I was dumbfounded for a while, fearing I had been caught when she repeated again. “Where's Mrs. Catherine?”
“Mrs. Catherine Jones?” I sighed out of relief as I rubbed the tear dripping down my cheeks before turning towards her.
“Yes, the Beta’s wife.”
I smiled and pointed at the distance toward my mom. “Over there.”
“Thank you, Miss…”
“Taylor,” I replied, giving her a polite smile as she nodded and made her way towards my mother. “Taylor Jones,” I murmured, glancing at her as she walked away.
I continued to force a smile while I helped the guests settle down, trying to keep myself busy in this commotion as if I was trying hard to forget about everything.
My eyes glistened with tears as I looked at everyone around me. Everyone was dressed in black, and looked gloomy while some even wailed in silence.
Today was my birthday, my 16th birthday. And, this was supposed to be my birthday celebration. But, now, it has turned into a funeral. The funeral of my older sister, Odette, the favorite child of my parents, and the apple of the pack members’ eyes. Meanwhile, I, the youngest daughter of Beta Elliott, had been forgotten. None of them even remembered my existence, just like that guest.
We were both the Beta’s daughters. I was the youngest daughter but I’ve lived my life like a dead person. We were both their daughters, but I was always ignored while she had always been the center of attention and the heart of the pack. I had always been her shadow.
No one in the pack, and even in this home even remembered the youngest daughter of the Beta, Taylor. It was as if Odette was the main character and I was the supporting character which made her shine.
My birthday was never celebrated, forgotten every time as if I never existed here. This was the first time my birthday was going to be celebrated. And, it was all thanks to my sister, Odette’s engagement. Odette was soon going to be engaged so I was finally allowed to have a celebration. It was going to be the first time but now… Everything has changed. All the decorations and food have been changed and repurposed for my sister's funeral. No one even remembered today was my birthday as well. And, like every other year, even my parents have forgotten about it.
She was the eldest and my parents’ pride and joy but… “What about me?” My thoughts escaped and I unconsciously said it aloud.
My parents turned a strange look around me, raising their eyebrows and frowned.
“What's the matter?”
My lips widened but words kept stuck in my head. My mom frowned, with displeasure written in her face.
“I… Today…” My father crooked his eyebrows when I paused and shook my head, looking down. “It's nothing… Take care of yourself, today.” I murmured when my father turned away, disinterested.
My mother pulled me by my shoulder, looking sternly and warned, “Behave yourself today. Don't cause any trouble. Today is your sister's funeral day.”
“Mom…”
Her gaze turned colder upon hearing me call her. “Remember why this happened to your sister. It's all because of you. Now, just behave yourself well.” Mom warned me for the last time before she turned away and left.
I bit my lips and went away from there to the corner while my mom's words kept repeating in my mind.
A tear escaped from my eyes uncontrollably. My chest felt stuffy, looking at everyone around me. Everyone came here on the day of my birthday but this was for my sister's funeral. Never once has anyone ever celebrated my birthday. It was as if no one ever wished I was born.
My sister was the one who was always looked upto, loved and respected. She was widely recognised to be the mate of the Alpha's son — Killian. She was to-be the future Luna of our pack.
Even though they weren't mated as Odette was yet to turn 20 but everyone assumed she was going to be the future Luna, mated to Killian as if it was very natural. After all, who else except Odette could be the future Luna? Everyone was already preparing for their engagement even before she left for college.
I looked down while recalling Odette’s face. She… Was she really going to be the pack’s Luna, Killian’s future mate? I sighed. Even though no one knew how Odette really was, I knew her well. She… wasn't simple.
I bit my lips as I rubbed my tears off my face. I knew it was pretty to think about all of these at her funeral but even before, when she was here, no one cared for me. And, no one still cares even now.
I frowned, taking a deep breath while I tugged my hair beside my ear. My heart thumped, feeling impatient and frustrated. I looked at everyone coming for my sister's funeral. It was going to be even bigger than the birthday celebration my parents set up for me. Though they even forgot it was my birthday today.
I released a deep breath, trying to hold onto my tears. I didn't want to be this unreasonable and make a scene.
Maybe, just maybe, anyone would still remember that it was my birthday today. Especially my parents. This time they were going to celebrate my birthday. So, they might remember it this time.
“Even if they forget about it this time, it's just because of Odette's death… She was their favorite after all… It's normal if they forgot about it in their sorrows…” I whispered to myself while clenching my fists, trying to sooth myself.
I shouldn't be petty. Today was my sister's funeral.
I put on a painful smile, shaking off my thoughts as I focused on the guests entering.
“I can't let anyone badmouth my parents for my behavior…” I murmured, nodding to myself. This time there were many present, both from the pack and also from other packs. I had to behave for my parents and my pack. And, I can't let my parents worry about me while they're still disheartened…

CHASING GHOSTS
The Lycan Kings and the White Wolf.
Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.
Bride To The Werewolf King
MOONLIT CHASE
But no, I had to walk through the park at midnight like an idiot. Now I've seen something I can't unsee—a massive black wolf tearing apart three men, then shifting into the hottest guy I've ever laid eyes on.
Kieran Vaughn. Wealthy lawyer, werewolf, and apparently, he thinks I'm his mate.
Here's the problem: I don't do relationships. I definitely don't do supernatural things. I absolutely don't do rich guys who think they can control my life just because their inner wolf has decided I smell like home.
When hunters start targeting me to get to him, Kieran drags me into his pristine penthouse for "protection." Now I'm living with a man who looks at me like I'm his last meal, whose touch sets my skin on fire, and who's barely holding onto his control.
He says everyone he loves dies. I say that's not my problem except it is because I'm falling for this broken, dangerous man and his beast.
And in his world? Love will get you killed.
Reborn and Unleashed: The Boss Lady Takes No Prisoners
Now reborn, Vivian refuses to hide her strength. She's revealing her true identity, claiming her power, and rewriting her fate. No more submission, no more misunderstandings—this time, she'll take control of her life and her love.
As regretful brothers beg for forgiveness and powerful enemies fall at her feet, Vivian has one goal: to rise without mercy and make the man she once loved fall for her all over again—on her terms.
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.
Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.
Unwanted Mate Of The Lycan Kings
Ripped from her bed and thrown into a world of blood and treachery, Zirah’s fate is sealed, a forced marriage to one of the three Lycan Kings, each more monstrous than the last.
These kings, cursed by their sins, pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, and gluttony are at war, fighting to claim their father’s throne. But the last thing any of them want is a queen.
To them, Zirah is nothing but a pawn, an object to be used, discarded, or destroyed.
But they underestimate her.
If they think she will cower, they are wrong.
If they believe she will bow, they will bleed.
And if they want to break her, they’ll have to survive her first.
The MC Hacker’s Stolen Princess
She did not come to find out her father had promised her to another man.
As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.
Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.
Bloodright
Ashveil University is not what it looks like in the photographs. The students here carry something that shifts their eyes at the edges of anger. The northwest trees hold an attention that trees should not be able to hold. And the empty chair at the council table, the one nobody sits in, the one nobody explains, has been waiting three hundred years for one specific person to arrive.
Nobody told Adaline she was that person. They classified her as Dormant. A blank space in a file. Nothing.
She is the opposite of nothing.
Beneath the campus, three ancient entities are waking up. Every house in the pack world wants to control what runs in her blood. The boy sent to assess her has stopped being able to do his job. And the woman who has been three steps ahead of everyone since before Adaline was born is not a villain. She is a warning. She is what Adaline would have become if nobody had found her.
The suppression field holding everything together is failing. The clock is running. And the only way to stop what is coming requires Adaline to give up the thing she can least afford to lose.
She already knows her answer. She decided before anyone told her the full price.
