Introduction
"Who are you? I don't know you," Pearl answered fearfully. He stroked Pearl's flawless skin with the tips of his fingers, then took hold of her jaw. Pearl opened her eyes wide at once. Her breath stopped. This time, she will die.
"You know me well, doll. You are my mate.”
Pearl Rosental has one big dream: to get the best position at a famous design company, The Excellor Enterprise. Therefore, she worked hard to get the opportunity to participate in their internship program. Unfortunately, her father and stepmother forced her to marry the Kerrent’s only heir, Taggart. Pearl rejected Taggart as her mate, despite his urgent need to imprint her. Later, she learns that Taggart is The Excellor's president and owner.
When he finds out about her, Taggart never take a step back from his obsession. Pearl is more than just a mate; she also keeps a big secret about her blood, which captivates Taggart's cousin, Damian. Damian and his father, Matthew, have been trying to steal the Alpha’s crown for a hundred years. Damian falls for Pearl, which will bring him one step closer to becoming the next Alpha.
Chapter 1
*His breath roared closer, frightening Pearl even more. The man approached Pearl until his nose tip nearly touched hers. Pearl held her breath as if she were going to die. His golden brown eyes captivated Pearl from pushing.
The man then hissed, "Stop squirming, Babydoll. I won't let you go," without blinking his eyes, frightening Pearl as he restrained her body.
"Who are you? I don't know you," Pearl answered fearfully. He stroked Pearl's flawless skin with the tips of his fingers, then took hold of her jaw. Pearl opened her eyes wide at once. Breath stopped. This time, she will die.
"You know me well, Doll.” The man's loud hissing continued. Pearl still shook her head, but the man grinned broadly.
"You are my mate, and I will enjoy your body now."
"No, please don't. Let me go!" Pearl made an effort to scream. Yet, her voice didn't seem to want to come out. The man grew farther away and suddenly transformed into a hideous monster. Pearl slammed her eyes closed. He bit Pearl's neck painfully when she cried out at the top of her lungs.
"No!"*
Her sister Briana came to shake Pearl. She appeared due to Pearl's scream in the middle of the night.
"Pearl, Pearl! Get up! Pearl, what's wrong with you?" Pearl was battling something in her sleep as Briana yelled at her. At last, waking up, she cried. Pearl snorted awake. She quickly hugged Briana. Briana was also scared to see her sister having a seizure while asleep.
"What happened? Had you a bad dream?" Briana asked as she let Pearl go of her hug. Pearl was yet gasping for air. Her face was still pale with fear.
"A man appeared in my dream and strangled me. He turned into a terrible monster and then bit my neck," said Pearl, trying to retell her dream. While rubbing her head, Briana also looked worriedly at Pearl.
"I'm so scared." Pearl sighed again, covering her face with her hands.
"You dreamed the same thing again?" Briana asked in a worried tone. Pearl nodded, then looked down.
"Don't worry, it was just a nightmare. Nothing happened to you, Pearl." Pearl nodded, then took a deep breath. It feels calmer after returning to the real world.
"Yeah, I hope that dream will dissapear. It feels really bad."
Pearl had to carry on resting as it was still night. Briana also slept in Pearl's room to accompany her. Pearl's nightmares, however, will keep her from sleeping ever again. Who is the man who turned into a monster? Pearl doesn't want to remember it anymore. His face remained stuck in Pearl's mind all this time, even though she didn't know him.
In the morning, Pearl received a surprise email notification. When he read the email from a large company, his eyes widened.
"Oh my God, this is amazing!" Pearl squealed so happily. The bad sensation from the nightmare of yesterday night disappeared. Pearl bolted, yelling from the room.
"Daddy, Daddy, look! I got it. I got the intership from Excellor!"
John got out of his chair immediately and glanced at Pearl's cell phone email. Broadly grinning, he gave Pearl a hug of congratulations. Keith, Briana, and John were also grinning widely.
"Oh, congratulations, sweetheart. You did it. Oh, I'm so proud of you!" said John, hugging Pearl. Pearl was thrilled and gratified when, following the internship program, she was hired by Excellor Enterprise for an excellent position.
"You are amazing, dear!" Keith joins in praising Pearl. Pearl remembered to hug her older brother.
"Thank you very much, brother. You always support me." Keith smiled broadly, then hugged Pearl once again. Briana and Keith exchanged hugs and then laughed together. Seeing his three children made John very happy. Pearl's remarkable intelligence, generosity, and achievements especially thrilled John to see her.
After reading the email again, Briana said, "I heard that the company also provides scholarships for master's programs for those who pass internships there." Pearl smiled broadly and nodded.
"Yes. It has been my dream all along to get in there. Oh, I'm so happy!" said Pearl, moving. She even shed tears. Her dream of becoming a well-known interior designer will come true. Excellor is a famous company today. Making her way through an internship program is an honor.
Suddenly, Sandra came to scold her, "What is it?" Sandra frowned, not liking to see Pearl happy. However, Pearl still showed a different manner, although her stepmother didn't want her.
"Mom, look. Excellor took me as an intern. I am so happy!" Pearl smiled broadly and then showed Sandra the email she received. Sandra skimmed the email and then glanced at her husband, John, who was still smiling.
"You know all this?" Sandra rebuked John. Pearl immediately turned flat. Likewise, Briana and Keith needed clarification.
"Yes," John answered briefly with an unsmiling face.
"And you just let her go? She can't work there now!" said Sandra, surprising Pearl. Pearl needed clarification. Her brow furrowed in misapprehension.
"What do you mean, Mom? Why can't I work there?" Pearl asked perplexedly. Sandra half threw Pearl's cell phone down on the dining table like she was pissed at the situation. She turned to John. He said nothing.
"John, tell her what she has to do," Sandra ordered John tensely. John glanced at his children one by one. The joy that had appeared before now disappeared instantly.
"What's going on, Dad?" Pearl asked her father.
"It," John seemed hesitant to say. Meanwhile, Sandra crossed her arms, pressuring John to speak more truth. John had no choice.
"Tomorrow night, Pearl has to come to a ball dinner. Your future husband will introduce himself." John finally spoke. Pearl and her two siblings were so shocked.
"What? What do you mean, Dad?" Pearl gasped in disbelief. Sandra then grabbed Pearl's arm because she wanted to approach her father.
"We have decided to marry you now."
"But I'm going to Excellor, Mom. I can't get married now!" Pearl denied rejecting the unexpected match. Sandra shook her head, then glared forcefully at Pearl. She will not lose the opportunity to become part of his future son-in-law's family.
"You have to do it. This is your father's decision, and you will obey him."
"But,"
"Stop this useless idea of Excellor. If you marry him, you will never have to work for the rest of your life!"

HER ALPHA, HER SAVIOUR
Kane Hellboud, charm and wealth personified, wanted only me in exchange for her treatment. No cameras, isolation, or noose-like rules were part of the deal. Behind his smile? Cold, violent possessiveness that destroyed our fake marriage.
Most of all, I didn’t know the supernatural walked among us, hiding in the cracks of ordinary life. Not until Abel Stone stepped into mine—dark-eyed, sharp-tongued, and oozing dangerous promises. He’s my new boss. He shouldn’t make my skin tingle or my pulse race. I shouldn’t feel this primal pull, this illogical recognition that tugs at something deep in my bones.
Around him, lights burst, electronics fry, and something ancient in me awakens.
Kane feels it. His grip tightens, punishments turn brutal, and he hides the truth of what I am.
Trapped between two powerful men, I’m no prey, no pawn—no helpless victim.
Prisons burn. Monsters bleed. As for me? I'm the storm in skin—deadly beyond suspicion.
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.
A pack of their own
The Alpha's Stripper Mate
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."
At the tender age of eleven, JoJo Wyatt was forced to grow up far sooner than she should have. Born to a cruel father and a weak mother, she quickly realized she had to become the breadwinner for herself and her sister. Nothing else mattered to her, not even the hottest men. In fact, she despised them. After one horrific night, she swore never to have any contact with the male species again. That was, until she started working for him as his stripper.
Meanwhile, Alpha Lake Rush, thirty, was the most feared Alpha in the country. Burdened by his own share of life's struggles, he had learned only to be cruel and reckless, rejecting not one but two mates. But what happens when he discovers yet another mate, and she turns out to be his stripper?

They don’t want to be far away from their leader.
Game of Destiny
When Finlay finds her, she is living among humans. He is smitten by the stubborn wolf that refuse to acknowledge his existence. She may not be his mate, but he wants her to be a part of his pack, latent wolf or not.
Amie cant resist the Alpha that comes into her life and drags her back into pack life. Not only does she find herself happier than she has been in a long time, her wolf finally comes to her. Finlay isn't her mate, but he becomes her best friend. Together with the other top wolves in the pack, they work to create the best and strongest pack.
When it's time for the pack games, the event that decides the packs rank for the coming ten year, Amie needs to face her old pack. When she sees the man that rejected her for the first time in ten years, everything she thought she knew is turned around. Amie and Finlay need to adapt to the new reality and find a way forward for their pack. But will the curve ball split them apart?
Mates: Regrets and Redemption
With my heart in pieces, I sought solace in the last place I expected—my Alpha's arms. One night turned into a dangerous entanglement, and now my Alpha refuses to let me go. As the Alpha’s obsession grows, I'm caught in a web of desire and fear.
Curtis, the boy I once loved, still holds a promise I made, but the Alpha’s powerful presence pulls me deeper into his world. Should I forgive Curtis and keep my word, or should I risk everything for a chance at something wild and unpredictable with the Alpha who won’t take no for an answer?
“There are no limits between us,” he chuckled, the mirth sparkling in his gorgeous eyes. “And all of this stems from the night you gave me both pain and pleasure. I’m simply returning the favor.”
He took two steps forward, and I stepped back. “But…” The memory of what I had done filled me with fear, and I knew I had to get out of there. “I…”
“No, Firecat.” He placed an index finger on my lips. “This will take your mind off that son of a bitch.” His strong hands pulled me by the waist until I felt his hard manhood.

Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Aphrodite and the Cursed Mate Bond
She finds truth.
Aphrodite is not human at all. She is a rare white wolf, descended from an ancient Direwolf bloodline long believed extinct. The ritual meant to sever her ties awakens her wolf instead and with it comes the scent of five mates bound to her by fate.
The Alpha twins who once scorned her now cannot stay away. A human hunter walks beside her and proves that strength is not born of fangs or dominance. A cursed Wolf King holds the key to her past and her father’s imprisonment. And watching from the shadows is one who was never meant to interfere at all.
As gods fall, packs fracture, and war reshapes the world, Aphrodite must decide what destiny truly means. Is it submission to fate or the courage to choose her own path.
Love does not come in one form. Neither does power.
In a world ruled by gods and wolves, Aphrodite will become something neither ever expected.
Not a queen.
But the axis upon which the world turns.

His return triggers a brutal civil war with the usurper who stole his throne and his fated mate. Hunted by Lycan assassins and a fanatical human commander desperate for the secrets locked in Lena's own past, their only hope lies in embracing the very power Kaelen can't remember and Lena has always feared.
As they uncover a conspiracy that threatens not just the pack, but the future of every living thing, Kaelen must fight for a kingdom he doesn't know and Lena must confront a legacy she tried to bury. In a world of broken thrones and fated bonds, they will discover that the greatest choice is not between love and duty, but between who you are told you must be, and who you choose to become.
