Chapter 1
Kenny's pov
The night was cold and dark, a storm seemed to be coming and there was an ominous feeling hanging in the air, it felt like something was coming and whatever it was it wasn't anything good. I climbed the steps up to my room in the attic with slow carefull steps, my body hurt from the beating I took today, again it was given for no reason at all. When I finally reached my room I just fell on my small mattress that lay on the cold floor, you couldn't even call it a mattress because there wasn't much left of it, not caring if I haven't changed yet. My body felt like led, the aches just to much to even think about moving to undress myself, I didn't care at this point if the blood was getting on my measly blanket or if the dirt was getting everywhere, I will just get up a little earlier than normal and clean it up. A bright light suddenly shined into my small window lighting up the room so I couldn't see what was going on and I couldn't open up my eyes, groaning I moved my back to it to save my eyes. There was a soft soothing voice that spoke up from inside the light, it made my tence body relax and the pain subside some "I am sorry my child for all you have been through and all you will still go through, please just hold on, things will get better I promise" the woman's voice begged me with a sadness laced with her words, which I didn't understand, but just as suddenly as the light came it went and I was plunged into darkness, becoming oblivious to everything around me. I woke up with a start to people screaming and my pack's wolfs howling outside my bedroom window, with fear and pain through out their howls. My head felt fuzzy and I was confused for a little bit, it felt like there was pieces of my memory that was missing, like I couldn't understand why my body was aching or why I had bruises all over my body. A loud roar came from outside and ripped me out of my confused and befuddled state. Making me jump up and I ran down the stairs and out the front door to be met with blood and chaos all around me, it was a horrific scene that met me as I looked around my pack, the scene so greusome it made my stomache roll. A lot of our packs wolfs was lying dead in front of me and the others was trying to fight of the wolves attacking our pack, it didn't seem to be going to well for us, there were more of us dead than them. I jumped down the porch and tried to run to my mother who was trying to protect my little brother from a vicious wolf, when a force suddenly stopped me in my tracks, making me feel as if I was made of stone. I couldn't even move my head or feel my wolf, scared because I couldn't move and I was only able to see and hear the chaos around me with big wide eyes, what the hell was happening, why were we being attacked? but my questions only ran around in my head, for some reason I couldn't even speak out loud. It was obvious that I wouldn't receive answers to any of them anyway not now at least.
A dark chuckle came up behind me and a cold hand was put on my shoulder, making me shiver from head to toe. "Finally you came out, I was starting to think you weren't here" a deep voice spoke right by my ear, I knew that voice but couldn't place it just yet. "Tonight you will watch and witness the destruction of your small pathetic pack who thought they could refuse me what I wanted and after all of it is done you will be mine" he whispered again close to me. He grabbed me by my hair and forged me down on my knees, the impact of the ground on my knees made me hiss through my teeth. Tears streamed down my face as I watch my pack being destroyed and all the people I loved being killed of one by one, they had no mercy in their killings of innocent people and my confution only grew, again that feeling of something missing in my mind arose. I screamed in agony when my father and mother were slaughtered, my sweet baby brother wasn't even spared, my youngest brother who was supposed to become alpha one day was ripped apart. They killed even the woman and children until there was no one left but me, I felt a strong and deadly power surge through me just after my father blew out his last breath and I knew his alpha powers has shifted to me, as my brother was no longer alive the power became mine as the last of our bloodline.
My mother was never able to give my father a son for many years so the next in line for alpha was me,until my brother was born two years ago, but that didn't seem right to me, again the feeling like something was missing rushed through me and it made me feel frustrated that I felt so confused through all of this. I pushed the powerful feeling down and hid it so the bastard didn't realize what had happened, otherwise he might just end me right there and then for becoming stronger than him, I could feel he was a Alpha but not a very strong one. He pulled me up from my knees by my hair, I refused to wince and show weakness to this son of a bitch, again it felt like I had been through worse than what he was putting me through at this stage, the pain somehow seemed familiar. "Bring her with us she will be my toy from here on out" he ordered his minions, one of his warriors picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. Hanging upside down I could still see the flames raging through my pack from building to building, destroying everything in its path, why was I suddenly feeling content in seeing the destruction of my pack, I should be mourning all the life's that was taken here today, but it felt more like he did me a favour instead of an injustice. Frowning I looked away and down at the ground, things just wasn't making sense, "Just making sure if you ever escape which I doubt you will, that you don't have anywhere to go" he said from the front of the group. It was then that I vouched to myself that no matter my feelings on this, I will get my revenge on each and every one of the scum that helped this rubbish kill an entire pack. I was going to torture them slowly and make the torture so intense that they would beg me to kill them. The rage was consuming my entire body that I started shaking uncontrolably and then blacked out.......

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.
My Life As A Werewolf
Lexington makes it crystal clear: most new turnlings die before the second full moon, and if she survives, she belongs to his pack. But to Jo, this isn't a terrifying curse—it's the content gold she's been waiting for. She starts documenting her bizarre, terrifying, and surprisingly entertaining supernatural life, determined to make her 'My First Shift' vlog the biggest sensation on VidHub.
Her antics quickly draw the ire of the most powerful being on the continent: Merrick, the lethal and uncompromising Lycan King. He sees her rogue vlogging as a threat to his world’s secrecy, and tasks Lexington with the impossible: bring the feisty new wolf to heel or face the King’s wrath.
Unbeknownst to Jo (and the King himself), Merrick recognizes her as his fated mate—a destiny he has vowed never to accept. As Jo's bright, defiant personality starts to chip away at the sullen, dangerous existence of his pack, the King finds himself helplessly watching her channel, falling a little more in love with the chaotic wolf he's supposed to silence forever.
Jolene's journey is a battle for survival, not just against her shifting body and dangerous Alpha, but against a destiny written by a Lycan King who loves her too much to ever claim her.
Taste of Fate: The Vampire King's Human Mate
He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.
He moaned against my throat as he drank, and the sound was devastating.

From first crush to wedding vows, George Capulet and I had been inseparable. But in our seventh year of marriage, he began an affair with his secretary.
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
His Lethal Obsession
He didn't respond but moved his eyes around the room, scanning the place.
"Wha...what are you doing here?"
His icy blue eyes returned to me, sending shivers down my spine. Then further dropped to my dress and then back to my eyes.
"The shit going on downstairs, what does it mean?" he asked, making my legs as weak as they are eager to flee.
"It's....it my wedding,"
He scoffed darkly. "Excuse me?"
I swallowed. "I am......getting married,"
He let out a humorless laugh, looking away and giving me lesser comfort. He looked at me with a demonic frown.
Terror washed me.
"Every single motherfucker/human being here, be it adult or child, including you, will burn before that happens,"

Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

.
"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.
"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
