Introduction
Chapter 1
A hooded figure walked the hallways of the prestigious Rosevale high, frantically searching for her class.
Oh no! Not again she muttered her forehead creasing. A ripple of gasps swept through the hallway. The sound of feet pounding the floors of the hallway could be heard from a mile away, phones flew into the air and voices rose like crashing waves. A crowd of excited students pushed past each other, stretching out their necks, screaming a name, desperate for a glimpse.
Another popular student has arrived, with a lot of crowd this time. It seemed he was the most popular of them all.
Squeezing through past the sea of bodies,then heading down the hallway, she finally found her designated classroom.
She pushed the door open after two nervous breathes and stepped in anxiously.
It was a well known fact that students at Rosevale high were spoilt, rude brats but she didn't expect them to misbehave in the presence of the teacher.
Some were taking selfies, going live, gaming and applying makeup, totally ignoring the presence of the teacher.
Adjusting her hoodie, she moved away from the doorway letting it close, it's sound drawing every attention to her.
She moved to the teacher with shaky knees wondering why the stares were getting to her.
You have a new classmate the teacher said before turning to her. Introduce yourself my dear.
“ Hi everyone, I'm Akira D. Octavio.
Does the D stand for Donovan asked blue haired girl making her classmates scoff and snicker.
That's not possible, it probably stands for a d**k, a Donovan wouldn't be dressed like this low-life a cute looking boy said while sizing her up.
That's enough! Stop being mean to your new class mate and welcome her with open arms.
Maybe you should welcome her with open arms yourself, you too belong to the same class anyway, and stop telling us what to do a blonde girl rudely retorted.
The teacher obviously used to treatments like this did nothing or said nothing other than asked Akira to find a seat.
She found the closest seat to the window sat down and began taking notes on her PC.
So engrossed in the lesson was she, she didn't notice who walked in or the catcalling from the boys. She also didn't know the person was standing.
Someone tell the low-life secretary to get off the CEO's seat the rude girl said slamming her PC shut with force.
Akira wanted a quiet highschool life but she wasn't going to tolerate bullying of any kind.
Careful there, you won't want to break something thrice the amount of your fake hair blonde, she retorted holding the gaze of the other girl fearlessly.
The girl was taken aback, she didn't expect her to talk back at her.
How dare you talk back at me, don't think you're worth it just because you were lucky enough to be admitted here on scholarship, you're just worthless trash who's contaminating the air in this school.
Then find another seat, don't tell me you want to share the same seat with this filthy trash?.
You're not getting away with this, said the girl before walking away in defeat.
Before we proceed let's do a little introduction of Rosevale high.
Rosevale high is a school for the wealthy, with state of the art facilities and world class teachers. It was the best school in the country,a school only the wealthy could afford.
The students who attended were rich and popular, some of them celebrities and children of celebrities like the children in Akira's class.
It was time for lunch after two more lessons. Akira picked up her back pack and left the classroom and was heading to the cafeteria when she collided against a dark haired girl knocking down her books.
I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to, Akira apologized while helping the girl pick up the scattered books.
It's fine mistakes happened, she responded with a smile surprising Akira.
I'm Violet she said extending a hand to a shocked Akira. Akira shook her hand still feeling puzzled.
Wipe that surprised look off your face, there's still a few good people at this school Akira,and don't be surprised I know your name, you are already popular thanks to your hoodie.
Anyways do you mind walking me to the library to drop this books, then we can go get lunch together, and oh the squad would be so pleased to meet you said violet pulling her with her.
I don't think I have a choice here do I? You're already stringing me along.
The two girls headed to the cafeteria after returning the books at the library.
Ignore them, violet said pulling her towards a group of students seated at the far end of the cafeteria.

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.
**

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.
Alpha Nicholas's Little Mate
What? No—wait… oh Moon Goddess, no.
Please tell me you're joking, Lex.
But she's not. I can feel her excitement bubbling under my skin, while all I feel is dread.
We turn the corner, and the scent hits me like a punch to the chest—cinnamon and something impossibly warm. My eyes scan the room until they land on him. Tall. Commanding. Beautiful.

His expression twists.
"Fuck no."
He turns—and runs.

How Not To Fall For A Dragon
Which is why it was more than a little confusing when a letter arrived with my name already printed on a schedule, a dorm waiting, and classes picked out as if someone knew me better than I knew myself. Everyone knows the Academy, it’s where witches sharpen their spells, shifters master their forms, and every kind of magical creature learns to control their gifts.
Everyone except me.
I don’t even know what I am. No shifting, no magic tricks, nothing. Just a girl surrounded by people who can fly, conjure fire, or heal with a touch. So I sit through classes pretending I belong, and I listen hard for any clue that might tell me what’s hidden in my blood.
The only person more curious than me is Blake Nyvas, tall, golden-eyed, and very much a Dragon. People whisper that he’s dangerous, warn me to keep my distance. But Blake seems determined to solve the mystery of me, and somehow I trust him more than anyone else.
Maybe it’s reckless. Maybe it’s dangerous.
But when everyone else looks at me like I don’t belong, Blake looks at me like I’m a riddle worth solving.
Goddess Of The Underworld
When the veil between the Divine, the Living, and the Dead begins to crack, Envy is thrust beneath with a job she can’t drop: keep the worlds from bleeding together, shepherd the lost, and make ordinary into armour, breakfasts, bedtime, battle plans. Peace lasts exactly one lullaby. This is the story of an orphan pup who became a goddess by choosing her family; of four imperfect alphas learning how to be better. Steamy, fierce, and full of heart, Goddess of the Underworld is a reverse harem, found-family paranormal romance where love writes the rules and keeps three realms from falling apart.
A pack of their own
The Pack: Rule Number 1 - No Mates
"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."
I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.
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."
New to the world of shifters, Draven is human on the run. A beautiful girl who no one could protect. Domonic is the cold Alpha of the Red Wolf Pack. A brotherhood of twelve wolves that live by twelve rules. Rules which they vowed could NEVER be broken.
Especially - Rule Number One - No Mates
When Draven meets Domonic, he knows that she is his mate, but Draven has no idea what a mate is, only that she has fallen in love with a shifter. An Alpha that will break her heart to make her leave. Promising herself, she will never forgive him, she disappears.
But she doesn’t know about the child she’s carrying or that the moment she left, Domonic decided rules were made to be broken - and now will he ever find her again? Will she forgive him?
The Human Among Wolves
My stomach twisted, but he wasn’t finished.
"You're just a pathetic little human," Zayn said, his words deliberate, each one hitting like a slap. "Spreading your legs for the first guy who bothers to notice you."
Heat rushed to my face, burning with humiliation. My chest ached — not from his words alone, but from the sick realization that I had trusted him. That I had let myself believe he was different.
I was so, so stupid.
——————————————————

But when she catches the attention of Zayn, a brooding and infuriatingly powerful Lycan prince, her life gets a lot more complicated. Zayn already has a mate. He already has enemies.

Enemies will rise. Loyalties will shift. And the girl with no place in their world...might be the key to saving it.
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.
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.
Invisible To Her Bully
Falling For The Biker: The Vice President's Girl
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.
Dragged home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax—the Raven Reapers MC's vice president and her brother's best friend. He's infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting for a man she should never touch.
And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?
