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.

They'll Regret This
My fiancé didn't just dump me—he proposed to her that same night. My so-called family handed me bus fare and a one-way ticket to the countryside.
Perfect. Let them think they won.
They don't know who I really am. The anonymous genius surgeon who saves lives when elite hospitals give up. The legendary artist whose paintings sell for millions at auction. The undefeated shadow queen of the underground fighting circuit. And the true heiress to a fortune that makes theirs look like pocket change.
Now my ex-fiancé begs on his knees. My fake sister's jealousy is eating her alive. And that cold, arrogant CEO who once threw our engagement contract in my face? He's hunting me down like a man possessed, desperate for one more chance.
They threw me away like trash to upgrade their lives.
Joke's on them.
I was always the upgrade.
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.
The Dragon's Last Fae Queen
“Prince? Dickhead? Asshole? Or stalker?” A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips. “Maybe I should show you the one title I want you to use.” Before I could react, his hand closed around my chin, tilting my face up. His lips crashed into mine, hard, claiming, breath-stealing. When he finally pulled back, his voice was a rough whisper against my lips. “You could call me yours… because you are mine.”

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.

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.
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.
