Chapter 1
Chapter 1
Five young teenage heiresses were bored. They wanted adventure and to have fun during Halloween.
"Girl, let's do a spooky documentary!" Tessha exclaimed, very excited.
"Spooky... do you mean a Halloween horror film? Rawr!" Evitta replied jokingly.
"You're funny, haha! I'm tired and bored with trick-or-treating," Tessha said, laughing.
"I know, it's for kids only," Evitta replied. "What did you have in mind?"
"You're spacing out, girl! I already told you: a spooky Halloween documentary! My gosh!" Tessha said, shaking her head.
Her friend's mind seemed to be a blank, floating away again!
"Spooky I like it! But we can catch some hot guys too. What do you think?" Evitta asks thinking about those hot abs guys that she likes the most.
"Catching hot guys during Halloween? You're weird!" Tessha said in disbelief.
"A vampire hot guy will do, hehe." Evitta and his illusions.
"Sheesh, You're a- never mind! Let's call the other girls." Tessha calls their other friends to come over.
In just a minute the three girls arrive excitedly.
"What do we have in here?" Carla, the kindest in their group asks.
"Let's have some fun. Trick or Treat!" Tessha answers excitedly.
"Eww! Seriously? Halloween party?" Arina's face becomes sour.
"I told you, Tessha. Boy hunting is better than finding pumpkins." Evitta chimes in.
"What? Pumpkin your ass. All you can think of is boys and boys." Tessha said. "How's your pssy by the way?" She asks.
"Perfectly fine!" Evitta proudly answers.
"What the hell! Can we talk for real now?" Arina shouted.
She doesn't want to hear that pssy thing!
"Here are some chips that I bought. Let's dig in while talking about this trick-or-treat!" Lisa gives each of them.
"I'm just joking. Let's have a Halloween vacation instead of a party but- with a spooky twist!" Tessha said with suspense.
"Sounds interesting. I like it!" Carla said and is now excited about this spooky something.
"Sounds boring! But I'm a real friend. Wherever you guys go, I will always be the third wheel hahaha." Evitta laughed out loud.
Although she wants to hunt boys, she's a real friend and will go with their boring spooky adventure!
"So funny of you Evitta. What is this spooky twist, Tessha?" Lisa asked.
"Let's find and look on the internet for a real haunted place!" Tessha answers with a horror face expression.
And everyone fell into silence...
Arina broke the quietness.
"Wow, are you afraid, girls? Look at your horror facial expressions it's epic haha!" Arina jokes.
"Bwahaha, I'm not afraid. I like spooky boys!" Evitta said laughing.
"Grrr! Boys again but don't worry lots of boys will be joining I guess." Tessha said excitedly.
"Really?" Arina asks twinkling her eyes.
"Yeah, some of our classmates are planning a spooky vacation too. We might bump into or see each other." Tessha answers.
"That's good! What's the plan?" Evitta asked curiously.
"Now you are listening. Boys and their pants!" Lisa said while rolling her eyes.
"What about their pants?" Carla asks with a confused expression.
"The virgin Carla can't relate. My gosh! It's your time to flirt my dear friend." Evitta smirks.
"Stop it. Let's plan this vacation. Any suggestions?" Tessha interrupts.
"Let's follow your plan and search for the most haunted and spooky place." Carla answers.
She doesn't want to be her friend's topic. She's thankful that Tessha rescued her!

"That's a good idea and my camera will be out of use again. I will be your camerawoman!" Lisa said excitedly.
"And I'm the Director. Finally! I can share my talent in filming." Arina said, feeling excited too.
"Haha, You're just dreaming, Arina." Evitta laughed at her.
"Shut up. Don't ruin my momentum, duh!" Arina answers while rolling her eyes.
"Just give her the credit to be our director in this documentary. I will be the researcher." Carla said and gets her laptop to start searching.
They found five places but stick to four.
It's hard for them to choose so they get a paper and raffle the places.
"I'm excited, What place is going to be picked?" Lisa asks.
"Anywhere as long as there are boys!" Evitta shouts. She's excited!
"Who will pick?" Tessha asks her friends.
"Can I? I'm excited too!" Carla asks.
"Sure!" Tessha agreed and let her choose.
Carla picks randomly without looking at the rolled paper. Everyone is excited.
And the moment of truth is here!
"Open it!" Arina told her.
"Villa del Bungo in the City of Infierno?!" Carla asks with a horror face expression.
"Whoa, sounds like hell!" Evitta shouts.
"The most haunted one. OMG!" Lisa shouted too.
"You are already afraid, this will be going to be a great adventure." Tessha said.
"Tessha, you have the biggest fan base on the internet in all of us. Go and post it now!" Arina ordered Tessha.
"Yeah, tell them that we are going to have a spooky Halloween getaway." Lisa added.
"Good idea. And invite them too if they like to join. Excited!" Evitta can't control her excitement.
"Okay, Now it is final. Let's make an announcement!" Tessha answers.
"I couldn't wait! But I'm nervous. What if?" Carla asks with a worried expression.
"What if what? Come on Carla, It's time to meet some boys and flirt!" Evitta scolded her.
"Evitta will be having fun I guess." Lisa said while shaking her head.
"I'm sure of that! I'm very excited! Boys, I'm coming!" Evitta shouted.
"Hahaha!" While Arina can't control her laughter.
Tessha is done posting. Three groups wanted to join. They are all happy and excited when suddenly all the lights went off!
"Shocks, what happened?" Carla asks nervously.
"Ahhh, I don't want to die young. I want to date and enjoy my teenage life!" Evitta is in panic.
"It's just a blackout girls!" Tessha tells her friends.
"Seriously, You can turn on your phone's flashlight." Lisa said while shaking her head.
"It's not yet Halloween and you're all afraid of a blackout?" Tessha is laughing.
"It's very dark!" Evitta answers.
"Turn on your flashlight, Evitta." Carla told her.
"My phone is not here! Where is it?" Evitta asks in disbelief.
Then they saw Evitta's phone floating in the air. The flashlight is turned on and followed by a lady in a white blanket!
"W-what is that?" Carla asks with a shaking voice.
"Sadako? But it has no hair! Who are you? Damn prank!" Evitta shouts.
"Is this a prank? Stop it already we are not afraid." Lisa said angrily.
"Arina is that you?" Tessha asks.
"Come on Arina. I'm not happy with your joke!" Evitta said.
"That's a good costume Arina. You are covered with a white blanket. But- Can you breathe?" Lisa asks nervously.
"Where did she get that white blanket?" Tessha asked confusedly.
"Why are you asking? It's your house, Tessha!" Evitta answers.
She's afraid!
And Tessha is confused. They don't have a white blanket!
Where did it come from? Tessha is starting to get nervous! "It's not funny at all Arina. Stop it!" She shouted.

Excerpt:
She lay before him in all her magnificent beauty draped across his king-size bed in the most compelling and provocative way known to man or beast. And for Alpha Zayne, it was the most captivating view he had ever had the pleasure of seeing with his own eyes.
She stared at his every movement, lips slightly parted, her stunning brown eyes scanning every inch of his gorgeously toned and glorious body while heat radiated off of hers. He was HERS.
Her body trembled in delight and anticipation; she was ready and wanted to be with him in every way.
As innocent as she was, she wanted him to...no need him to take her in the worse ways, bringing her to heights of pleasures she had never experienced before.
Fuck she is beautiful, one fine specimen, and she is all MINE, MY MATE. A wave of pure unbridled possessiveness vibrated through Alpha Zayne. He thanked the Divine Moon Goddess, for she has truly blessed him.
He drank her in, eyes trailing up her toned sexy legs spread wide for him, and she gave him that come-and-get-it look.
Cursed Fates
Human Capture (Up North #2)
Raised in a starving settlement choked by a vast, unforgiving forest, Lara learned early that survival has a price. To keep her family alive, she became a master hunter—agile, silent, and deadly with an array of mismatched blades. But the forest has eyes, and one evening, the shadows dragged her away.
Nine months later, Lara breaks free from a concrete dungeon, only to find herself stranded in the lawless, rogue-infested wilds of Avers Land alongside four captured werewolf girls. Seeking refuge in the neighboring territory of Illyen, she expects to find a way back to her human life. Instead, she is brought face-to-face with Alpha Rowan, the terrifying, ruthless ruler of the frozen North.
One look into Lara’s eyes, and the Alpha’s world shatters. His eyes turn an absolute shade of black. The bond is undeniable. She is his fated mate.
But a human cannot survive the brutal political landscape of the North, and Rowan openly rejects the bond, dragging her onto a warship bound for a kingdom that views her as a fragile liability. Trapped between a mate who refuses to love her and a court of monsters waiting for her to break, Lara must use every hunter's instinct she possesses. Because in the realm of wolves, a human must either grow claws of her own—or perish in the snow.
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."

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."

I fell to my knees, the cold marble digging into my skin. I had studied for years in the flickering candlelight, memorizing every herb and poison to pass the healer's exam. I wanted freedom. I wanted to save my mother from the servant's quarters. I placed second. I thought I had won my life back.
But the King didn't give me a badge of honor. He gave me a death sentence.
