Chapter 1
MILA's POV
Mila woke up with joy and happiness. All her dreams of the future are looking so promising after she found her mate at the mating ball ceremony that was held over the weekend.
It turns out that Arnold, her childhood friend and the son of Alpha Albert is her fated mate. Arnold was also excited to be mate to her. Mila’s father is the beta of the Duskfire pack,which makes their mating a strong union for the pack and is celebrated by all the members of the pack.
The sudden loud bang of the door sent chills down my spine as I ran out to see the cause of the commotion.
“Find him and bring him out here!!! Alpha Albert, the Alpha of Duskfire Pack, dressed in an expensive-looking silver tunic that did almost a good job at hiding his chubby physique and big belly, thundered at the guards as they moved away to drag my father out of his room.
I flinched at his voice as my blood ran cold. I have never seen this version of Alpha Albert before. At fifty years old, he was already sprouting several gray strands of hair on random parts of his head. His sunken pale gray eyes matched perfectly with his charming but slightly wrinkled round face that made him look like a kind man. Even though I knew that he wasn't. I saw his wrath on full display today as he glared at my father who was dragged out with invisible question marks on his face, wondering what could've made Alpha Albert act this way. We all bow our heads to show subservience to him.
“How can you betray your pack like this? How can you be this wicked and selfish? I can't believe you are the traitor, Beta Jackson,” Alpha Albert shouted at my father in an angry voice.
“I don't know what you are talking about my Alpha. I will never do anything to betray you and the pack. Believe me, my Alpha. I can’t betray this pack.” My father replied with an anguished voice to the accusation made against him.
“All the evidence I have pointed at you and I have witnesses who confessed to your involvement in the plan against my leadership and the pack,”. I couldn't believe it myself until I saw the proof and heard the confessions of those caught. He shouted at my father as he threw the paper evidence at him.
“This evidence is false, Alpha, this is a setup by someone to defame me. I have always been loyal to you and this pack, I am innocent ” my father defended, his voice mixed with anxiety and frustration after he glanced through the paper evidence thrown at him.
With the gravity of the offense committed by you and your family against your Alpha and the Duskfire pack.
“I, Alpha Albert of the Duskfire Pack, with all the evidence I have of you being the traitor, hereby pronounce you to be sentenced to death.
As for your daughter, Mila, she is henceforth reduced to an Omega,” Alpha Albert commanded with his Alpha authority.
I slumped on the floor immediately after the verdict was made, as tears streamed down my eyes. A pang of pain shot through my heart as I quickly bowed and kneeled before Alpha Albert pleading for my father.
“Please Alpha, can we… investigate more, my father cannot betray you…, you know your beta is…loyal, my father cannot…, I swear to the moon goddess, I spoke incoherently as tears streamed down my eyes. My heart is full of anguish and pain at my father's verdict.
“What nonsense are you spouting Mila,” If I hear one more word from you, you will join your father in his death sentence. He growled at me with an angry look.
I was feeling so weak and helpless, thinking of what next to say to convince him of my father's innocence and save his life when my dad told me to stop blabbering so I wouldn't get the Alpha angry at me through the mind-link.
“Guards, Take them away.” Alpha Albert commanded the enforcers and left.
I watched them drag my father away in an undignified manner, leaving me to wallow in pain at the face of my father's predicament.
Amid the chaos, while lying on the floor crying at my fate and lost in the sad memory of my dad's accusations, I was jolted back to reality when I saw some guards come in.
I felt my pulse quicken, wondering why they were here again after dragging my father out to the pack dungeon.
“You’ve been ordered by the Alpha to vacate this place and follow us to your new abode. One of the pack enforcers said in an arrogant tone.”
“No! Please I beg of you. Let me stay here with the memories of my father and mourn him in peace. This is the only place I have ever known and called home.” I cried the more, pleading with them.
“That is the Alpha’s order and we cannot disobey him, " the other enforcer snorted coldly.”
Before I could say anything, they both grabbed me and dragged me to the cottage, a far distance away from the pack house. Many of the pack members witnessed this but hid themselves and peeped secretly as I was being dragged away, afraid to do anything to avoid the Alpha's wrath.
When we got to the entrance of the cottage, one of the enforcers warned me sternly before leaving.
“You are to avoid visiting the Alpha and his Luna, they don't want to see your face ever again.”
I fought back tears staring at the dilapidated cottage I would be living in.
Who would have thought that Mila Shaw, the Beta daughter and mate to Arnold, Alpha Albert's son and future Alpha of Duskfire Pack would be caught living here? I gestured with my hands, muttering to myself.
The very thought of my mate, Arnold, brought a smile to my face as I felt a sense of relief for the first time since the incident of my father's accusation.
Arnold is my closest childhood friend, and I was so excited to find out after my eighteenth birthday at the mating ball that he is also my mate. My mate is gonna help me plead with his father and help me investigate my father's innocence.
I bet he is not aware of all that happened because he traveled for a peace treaty to Wildfire Pack and will be back today.
I felt a glimmer of hope as I planned on sneaking out to see Arnold witho
ut being seen by the guards after the warning they gave me.

“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?”

I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known.

I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
The War God Alpha's Arranged Bride

Invisible To Her Bully
My Possessive Alpha Twins For Mate
My drunk stepfather remained indifferent, his weight suffocating, making it hard to breathe as my heart raced.
Suddenly, the door slammed open, and two figures burst in.
"Get off her!" a deafening roar echoed.
I didn't expect the twin brothers who'd bullied me at school to come charging in like gods to save me.
After my grandmother passed, I had to move in with my mom and stepdad, who treated me like a servant. I prayed every day for my 18th birthday to come, so l could leave and escape this broken home.
However, on my first day at my new school, l encountered the legendary twins everyone feared.
To make matters worse, the Moon Goddess revealed they were both my mates!
After helping me out with my stepdad, my twin mate cornered me, played with my hair, and whispered possessively, "You belong to us, our little mate..."
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.
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."

I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
