Introduction

He called me his princess and he promised me a ring, our life together was going to be Epic but when I turned 18 and my wolf cried "Mate", He rejected me and claimed another girl in front of my eyes before he disappeared from my life, until……one night he caught me in that nightclub, I couldn't believe it was him but I was sure it was him but then he pinned me to the wall and whispered through gritted teeth. "I don't know you, and certainly do not love you. You have got the wrong man. But I don't mind having you for tonight's appetite."

Chapter 1

  "Happy Birthday cutie pie!"

  Raven smiles at her mom's text.

  "Thanks Mom! Have my flowers arrived?"she replies, staring at the half heart tattoo on the back of her hand.

  The other half is in Draco's hand, so whenever they hold hands, it makes a full heart.

  Draco Aslan is her mate, and the most perfect man in this world. In this life full of darkness and sorrow, he is her light and joy, everything and the only thing that makes her happy.

  They've known each other since they were six, even back then she knew she would be his Luna, not because she understood what "Alpha heir" meant, but because she knew he was THE prince of her life.

  "Don't even think about it."

  The sound of Claire's voice brings her attention back to the laboratory.

  Claire is one of her course mates. Class ended a while ago but Claire and her clique like to hang back and gossip. They have tea about everyone on campus and this is where they heartily share it.

  They don't mind that she hears, because to them, she doesn't even exist.

  "What? I just want to say hi to her," a boy whose name she does not know says and the ladies chuckle.

  "To that pretty face? Yeah...If you're not Professor McCall, a test tube or a conical flask, the lab worm speaks to no one." One of them says in a sarcastic tone.

  "Listen," Claire's voice goes octaves lower, the way it normally does when they gossip about people. "I heard she has a mental illness and if she stops studying and has fun even for a few minutes, she'll run mad."

  "Then they should have sent her to an asylum, not a college. Maybe she'd actually talk to her fellow mad people," another of the ladies replies and they all laugh.

  Raven wipes the corner of her eyes, just realising their harsh and false words are making her eyes watery.

  Mean girls are everywhere but she never learned how to deal with them. Usually, when this sort of thing happens, she would run out to cry in the bathroom and when Draco finds out, they would pay dearly.

  She pretends not to hear them, packs her things, and bites her lips when she passes them without making eye contact. Her ears are burning, but they are the ones who should feel ashamed!

  The moment she makes it out of the lab, tears burst out. Draco cared for her so well that she didn't have to learn all these...until college. She doesn't live in the lab, although she usually stays till midnight, but not today, it's her birthday.

  It's her only day off in the year, the one day she can't be here all day.

  She checks her phone again. Her mom hasn't replied yet so she texts her.

  "Send a picture of the flower when it arrives, thanks!"

  On the twilight of her birthdays, roses from Draco arrive. It's been like that ever since she understood what "romantic" was. This is the night she wants to be nowhere else, but just to enjoy it at home. This is her night.

  She needs to get a certain red wine. It's Draco's favorite. Tonight won't be the same without it.

  She remembers the first time they tasted this wine. It was the night of her 17th birthday. She wasn't allowed to drink until she was 18, but he was already 18 a few months ago, and he bragged about how he could buy alcohol now.

  She begged him to let her have a taste, and he taunted her till she was almost in tears. In the end, he gave up his "manly" whiskey and got a wine, this particular wine, so she could join, and she got drunk.

  The next morning, Draco's dad gave him a hell of a beating for getting her drunk and typical Draco got them another bottle to console himself that same night.

  She parks her car in her apartment's car park, texting her mom again. It's already dark out, her flowers should have arrived by now.

  She's beginning to get worried.

  "Not yet honey, maybe he didn't order them this year?"

  She snatches the bag containing the wine and a few other items from the passenger seat and makes her way to her room.

  Her steak slips out of the bag but she doesn't even stop to pick it up, rushing upstairs, her heart racing and her eyes becoming wet.

  Draco always gets her flowers, there's no way he wouldn't have sent them. She doesn't even want to think that she's not getting them this year.

  She rummages through her stuff for a card from last year, and texts them her order number.

  "Your package has been delivered."

  They text back in a few minutes.

  She feels a little better. Her light and joy cannot forget what today is. She knew he wouldn't.

  She mindlinks her mom this time around, maybe someone else got the package at the house and not her.

  "The package has been delivered mom. Are you sure no one got it?"

  From her vision, she can see her mom looking at her dad and her mom is chewing her lower lip, something she only does when she's done something she believes is wrong.

  "What happened to my flowers, mom?" Raven asks sternly, feeling a tinge of annoyance in her heart.

  "Your father....he— look honey—"

  "What did dad do?" Raven cuts her off sharply, her breath rising and falling.

  "He trashed them," her mom replies, dropping the link.

  "How could you?!" She mindlinks her dad immediately, yelling at him.

  He knows how important those flowers are to her, how much she looks forward to getting them every year.

  "Why don't you come home and do something about it?" He replies harshly, "no one has seen you in years, you choose to stay in that college miles away from us, from home, from everyone."

  "That has nothing to do with my flowers, you have no right to throw my stuff away."

  Draco's flowers are the highlight of her day and he just ruined it. Why? Why would he do this?

  "You need to forget about him, Raven."

  "He's my fated mate," she growls, feeling so much anger at her dad.

  "He's your fated mate. Yes, but he's also fucking dead. Wake up!" He yells back.

  His words hit her like a rocket and tears start to pour down her eyes. She grabs the bag of wine and throws it far across the room, yelling in rage before she breaks down in tears.

She enters the royal dragon pharmacy… and collides with a werewolf princess who drags her straight to the dungeon. There, in the deepest shadows of the palace, the youngest dragon prince sees her glowing eyes and instantly knows what she is. A fae. A secret the entire kingdom would kill for. What would be her fate? Another dead Fae? Or the Last Dragon's 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.”

"Ten years of atonement, and you flee?"

His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.

"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.

"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."

I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.

"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."

On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.

From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.

Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.

Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.

Dear readers, this novel is coming to an end soon. I highly recommend another fantastic story of the same genre:


I’d appreciate all your support, thank you so much!
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."

"Come here."
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."

"Tell me to stop, and I will," he murmured against my ear. "But if you don't..."
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.
