Welcome to Aurelius Crown Academy, where wealth is a weapon and status is law.

Aria Whitmore is forced into this elite world of heirs and social predators by her emotionally distant mother. She does not bow to hierarchy, and she certainly does not swoon for Cassian Vale—the global celebrity idol who rules the academy with quiet, unshakable authority.

But a family arrangement ties them together: an arranged betrothal neither of them consented to.

Vivienne Blackwell, the academy’s cruel social queen, marks Aria for destruction. As sabotage and threats escalate, Cassian’s carefully constructed emotional barriers begin to crumble. Beneath his cold, controlled exterior lies a fierce, possessive protector willing to shatter every rule to keep Aria alive.

Caught between family pressure, public scrutiny, and vicious rivals, Aria and Cassian fight their growing, forbidden attraction.

Can two people who were never supposed to fall for each other break free… and choose each other instead?

Left at a pack border with a name and a stubborn heartbeat, Envy grows into the sharpest kind of survivor, an orphaned warrior who knows how to hold a line and keep moving. Love isn’t in the plan…until four alpha wolves with playboy reputations and inconveniently soft hands decide the girl who won’t bow is the only queen they’ll ever take. Their mate. The one they have waited for. Xavier, Haiden, Levi, and Noah are gorgeous, lethal, and anything but perfect and Envy isn’t either. She’s changing. First into hell hound, Layah at her heels and fire in her veins. Then into what the realm has been waiting for, a Goddess of the Underworld, dragging her mates down to hell with her.

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.

After her terminal diagnosis, the first call she made was to her husband. A woman answered, her laughter shattering what little hope remained.
Even her childhood sweetheart had abandoned her for her sister, leaving her completely alone in the world.
With only one month left to live, she walked away without a word, crossing an ocean for a slim chance at survival.
Then the news of her death reached them.
Regret hit like a storm. Her husband abandoned every other woman and searched desperately for traces of her. Her first love finally realized who he had always wanted. Everyone who had hurt her was drowning in guilt, desperate for one last chance to make things right.

But she wasn’t dead.
While they were still consumed by remorse, she returned — alive, untouchable, and now the head of a leading medical conglomerate. She stepped back into their world with a cold, commanding presence, leaving them stunned and powerless before the woman they thought they had lost forever.

Genre: Dark Romance
Synopsis:
In the desolate town of Blackthorne Hollow, secrets are buried deep, entwined with lust, betrayal, and forbidden love. Clara, a brilliant but introverted college student, returns to her hometown after her mother’s sudden death, haunted by memories and an overwhelming sense of loss. As she unravels truths about her family and her mother’s hidden past, she encounters Adrian, a charismatic yet enigmatic figure who walks the line between darkness and light.

Fated to cross paths, Clara and Adrian are drawn to each other while battling the ghosts of their pasts. Their connection ignites a flame that challenges societal norms, morality, and ultimately, Clara’s sense of self. As they spiral deeper into their desire, chilling enigmas surface, revealing secrets that could tear them apart—stories of obsession, power play, and a love that asks: how far will you go for the one you love?

My name is Katniss. I'm a powerhouse at work, but a failure as a wife.
My husband has cheated on me with countless women: his secretary, his first love, his childhood friend...
But it wasn't until I saw him walk into a hotel with another woman that I finally decided I couldn't take it anymore.

Five years ago, I was drugged by my stepsister. Given the necessity to cover my tuition, I ultimately accepted the situation. I felt his scalding breath against my ear, his rough fingers grazing my inner thighs, igniting a numb, electric ache. His hard cock pressed against my soaked pussy, driving my heartbeat wild, my body instinctively arching, craving deeper thrust.
After that reckless night, I left in disgrace, only to find myself pregnant with triplets.
Five years later, I returned as a shining new talent in the medical field, ready to take revenge on my stepmother, stepsister and father.
Then Harrison Frost appeared, gazing at the tiny versions of himself, urging them to call him "Dad."
He peeled off his shirt, grinning. "Hey, wanna relive that night's heat?"

For five years, I loved Daniel Wilson with everything I had—only to watch him kiss his new secretary at our celebration dinner. That was the moment I finally woke up.
Disillusioned with love, I agreed to a marriage of convenience. I thought I was marrying the notorious playboy, Ethan Williams. But when we signed the papers, the name on the marriage certificate was Benjamin Williams—the ruthless business king everyone calls the “King of Hell.”
He showered me with priceless jewelry, wiped out my enemies, and shielded me from every storm. But he never once said he loved me.
Until one night, he pinned me against the wall, his breath hot against my skin, and whispered,
“Sophia, how much longer do you want me to wait?”
Turns out, this marriage was never an accident. It was his plan from the very beginning.

One contract to save her son. One night to change their future.
Seven years ago, music heiress Elisa Lee rescued a baby from a trash can with a note that said: “Kill it.” To keep him safe, she vanished, hiding her beauty behind a dowdy disguise and a maid’s uniform.
Now, her funds are frozen, and the wolves are closing in. Her only choice? Sign a three-month "Mail-Order Bride" contract with the cold, insomniac billionaire Ridge Lockhart. Ridge needs an heir and a cure for his trauma; Elisa needs a fortress.
He expects a gold-digger. He gets a woman whose voice is the only thing that brings him peace. But one night of passion shatters the "contract-only" rule, leaving Elisa with a shock: she’s pregnant. As their cold marriage turns into a burning obsession, a DNA test reveals the ultimate twist. The seven-year-old boy Elisa saved isn't an orphan—he’s the twin of the son Ridge lost in a plane crash years ago.
Caught between a hidden past and a new life, Elisa must decide: is Ridge her protector, or will the truth destroy the family she’s sacrificed everything to build?

At Eighteen Gabriella Chambers has no wolf, has no mate so why is the Academy for shifters demanding she attends? When Gabbie gets there she's demoted to omega, the lowest rank in the pack. The only thing she looks forward to is seeing her best friend Alex again.
Things have changed Alex is a feared and respected Alpha Heir, strong and s*xy, but Gabbie is still his best friend. Even though an Alpha and an Omega must never mix.
Things get complicated when Alpha Kade, Alex's rival for battle season crosses paths with firey Gabbie. In Kade's pack Omegas are scum, but what happens when simple encounters turn into something more. To add fuel to the fire Gabbie is a target for three Alpha Females including Alex's mate and Kade's chosen mate. A mystery blooms while Gabbie's at the academy that involves her past and her family. Will Gabbie survive long enough to awaken her wolf and find her mate?

They were already married for three years when Alpha Damian Zeus’s long-lost first love, Lily, returned bringing along a five-year-old pup.

Luna Ariana Volkstane slid the formal rejection request across the table. "Let's end this bond. It's better for you, me, and your first love."

He just smirked. "You want me to reject you? You think you can break our bond that easily?"

So she did. Ariana cut ties with him completely, poured herself into her career, and rose to global fame as a legendary healer, her knowledge of rare herbs, wolf anatomy, and ancient magic sought after across continents.

The powerful suitors lined up. The Alpha of an overseas empire whispered, "Ariana, hurry up and perform the severing ritual. I can't wait to claim you." A powerful pack leader vowed, "I'll be there with you the day you break the bond." A legendary wolf attorney promised, "I'll handle your rejection case with the pack council myself."

Ariana just rubbed her temples. It's not that she didn't want the split, she wanted it more than anything, it's just that the Alpha she was mated to refused to let go.

Finally, she announced, "Whoever can officially get me rejected, I'll put you at the head table of my bond-breaking celebration."

Not long after, Alpha Damian was served the official rejection request right in the middle of an emergency pack council meeting. That same afternoon, he was attacked by rogues at the gates of his own territory.

When Ariana showed up at the pack infirmary with healing herbs, she repeated calmly, "Let's sever the mate bond. It's better for you, me, and everyone else."

But the cold, untouchable Alpha pulled her into his arms, his eyes blood-red with fury. "You want me to reject you? Over my dead body."

I could tell that she wanted nothing more than to kiss me, and from the way she was gazing at my fangs, I knew she imagined what it would be like if I were to drink from her. A thing I’d found myself unable to stop thinking about for years now.
Bast was fighting so hard against herself, doing everything she could to convince herself that she didn't want this, that she didn't want me. Unknowing that she was fighting a losing battle, as she'd already made up her mind to be mine, and was only wasting her own time by denying it.
After giving her a few moments to tell me no, and hearing no refusal, I gently traced my hands down her form until they met her thighs. Once I saw that she had no issue with it, I lifted her, so our faces were even with each other. "Why are you fighting against what you want, kitten?" I whispered as I brushed my lips against hers, torturing myself just as much as I was torturing her.
"I don't know," Bast responded as she looked down, trying to catch her breath.
I put my hand under her chin and tilted her head back, forcing her to look up at me. I hesitated for just a moment before finally giving in and bringing my lips to hers. Though I'd been thinking about it for years, the reality far exceeded expectation as I finally felt her lips against mine, heard her tiny purrs of pleasure and excitement as I allowed my hands to explore her body.
Finally, being able to touch and caress her, feeling her tightening her legs around me as I explored her tongue with mine, it was like a climax of its own. Her heartbeat was erratic as she leaned into me, a small moan escaping as I explored her curves with my hands, her nails digging into my chest as she gripped my jacket to pull me closer. She couldn't hide how much she wanted me. Not now, not while her body was begging me to continue...

I was dropped at the gates like trash. Broken. Powerless. Alone.

Bloodrose Academy is not a school—it’s a death sentence for the weak. A place ruled by predators in uniforms, where cruelty is currency and alphas reign without mercy.

And I just caught the attention of the worst of them.

The Blackthorn brothers.

Zayne. Rylan. Cassian. Killian.

Four powerful alphas born of blood, brutality, and secrets. They hate me. Mock me. Hurt me. And yet… they can’t stay away.

To them, I’m nothing but the cursed stray. The girl who shouldn’t have survived. The outsider who doesn’t belong in their vicious world.

But fate has a cruel sense of humor.

Because I’m their mate.

And the moment they find out, everything will burn.

Enemies. Fated bonds. Bullying. Lust. Power games.
In Bloodrose, survival isn’t enough.

I’ll either become their obsession…
Or their destruction.

Marked by the Unknown

For eighteen years, Luna Blackwood has lived with a secret no one will explain.

Born into one of the most respected Beta families in the pack, Luna should have received her wolf years ago. Instead, she remains human while everyone around her shifts, hunts, and belongs. Her parents love her fiercely, yet they hide the truth behind worried smiles and unanswered questions. The Alpha watches her too closely. The elders avoid her. And the entire pack seems determined to keep her in the dark.

As if that isn’t enough, Noah Nightfang—the Alpha’s son and future leader of the pack—has made her life miserable for as long as she can remember. Arrogant, distant, and impossible to understand, Noah is the last person Luna wants anything to do with.

Then everything changes.

On her eighteenth birthday, Luna begins hearing whispers that no one else can hear. A mysterious presence lurking in the shadows starts calling to something buried deep inside her. Strange visions, impossible feelings, and dangerous secrets begin to surface, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about herself.

But the deeper Luna digs into the truth, the more she realizes she was never meant to discover it.

Now, with an ancient force watching her every move and a bond she cannot escape drawing her closer to Noah, Luna must decide who she can trust before the truth destroys everything.

Because some secrets were buried for a reason.

And whatever is awakening inside her was never meant to be found.

After facing ruthless betrayals in the hands of his wife, who attempted to murder him with the help of her lover, he awakened an amazing system. And now, he's back as a miracle doctor, top assassin, the most popular super star, and a filthy rich business mogul, determined to leave them with a belly full of bile and regrets.

However, evil forces arise all around him, trying to suppress his growth. The more he weeds out the evil, the more they sprout up, entangling him in a never ending circle of daredevil adventures. Now Alvin must face the greatest of evil or die fighting, because the system’s gifts never came free. Having a cheat system which gives you unlimited wealth was not the problem, staying alive long enough to enjoy them was.

"Stay with me!" Alpha Lennox cried out. "Please don't leave me! I need you!"
His words send a spike to the heart, making me fight against the darkness. I focused on his voice, feeling the warmth of his presence wrap around me like a comforting blanket. Using all the remaining strength, I battled the shadows that threatened to overwhelm me, determined to respond to his call. I forced my eyelids open for just a moment.
Warm, deep blue eyes stared down at me. They were full of unshed tears.
"Get some help!" he yelled. "Find a doctor! Make it quick! I can't lose her again!"
I could read the sadness in his blue eyes. The urgency in his voice pierced through the haze of my fatigue, igniting a flicker of resolve within me. I fought against the encroaching darkness with all the strength I could muster, desperate to reassure him that I was still here, still fighting. He knew there was no way I would survive the fall.

"Tell me to stop. Tell me now, or I won't be able to hold back." his tone was both a challenge and a plea. Serena swallowed hard, her heart pounding in her chest at the electric tension between them.
"I don't want you to stop," she breathed, barely recognizing her own voice. His eyes darkened even more. So much so that the ambers in them completely disappeared. He gnashed his teeth so hard as he fought for control. Serena could feel the tension radiating off him in waves like a spring ready to snap.
"You don't know what you're doing to me," he growled roughly. She bit her lip, both thrilled and intimidated by the raw need in his voice. Her fingers trailed along the hard line of his jaw, feeling the slight stubble there.
"Show me," she challenged. His breathing grew even more ragged. Serena could see the struggle on his face - the battle between his overwhelming desire and his need to protect her from his own intensity.
"I could hurt you," he warned again. "I'm not sure I can ever be gentle with you. I'm rough. My kind of sex is brutal."

The Sunlight shone upon her tired face. She opened her eyes wearily and felt weak and tired. The sun rays poured into her eyes, and she shut them quickly.

Gradually she opened her eyes gently and allowed it to adjust to the light in her surroundings. Where is she?

She raised herself to a sitting position and tried remembering what happened. She lifted the quilt and was surprised when she found herself naked. What happened to her? Why is she here? When did she pull off her dress?

She remembered vaguely that Tiana had helped her into a room last night. She didn't remember anything else besides…

Ah! Someone had taken advantage of her, she'd been raped! She lifted the quilt again and checked herself.

The hickey, the blood stain and the pain of being torn only proved that she had been taken.

She is married and there is no way she can excuse herself or explain to Lu Jingli that she had lost her first time to someone else.

She stood up quickly, picked up her dress on the floor and dashed into the bathroom. Just then Lu Jingli walked in with his mother and Tiana.

"That's right, she had really been taken. Take the photos of the blood stain bedspread and let's leave" That's Lu Cherry.

She's Lu Jingli's mother. 'I have enough reason to divorce her and be married to the love of my life" Lu Jingli chimed and held Tiana close to his heated body and kissed her.

"Easy my love. We will be married soon and I will become yours fully. My sister has been pushed out of the way" Tiana Mo said, sounding really excited.

Theresa Mo heard their words and couldn't believe her ears. Her husband and sister connived together against her?

She waited until the sound of the footsteps had gone far before she walked out of the bathroom with her dress on. She hurried her steps and walked away.

Hardly had Theresa Mo left when Pascal Lee got into the room. He checked through and didn't see anyone.

"Hello boss, the woman is gone. But I will show you the proof of her innocence" Pascal Lee said and took photos of the blood stain on the bed.

I WARNED!


“You will always live in my dead wife’s shadow. I will never love you.”

Those were my husband’s first words to me on our wedding day. Not I love you. Not welcome home. Just a cold promise I would spend the rest of my life paying for a crime I didn’t commit.

And the worst part?

He was right.

I was deaf. Fat. Broken. Betrayed by everyone I had ever trusted. By the time Alexander Miller walked into my life, there wasn’t much of me left to destroy.

I thought marrying him would give me stability, a fresh start.

I didn’t know it would trap me in a house filled with a dead woman’s memories.

Every time he touched me, I felt it. Even when he was buried deep inside me, he whispered her name like I was just a substitute for the wife he lost.

All because I had her face.

And he believed I had taken her life.

He made sure I paid for it every single day.

And when he finally learned the truth…
I was already dead.

"If you behave, I'll let you go."

Veera looked at her kidnapper and raised a brow. She wanted to cuss at him, but realised that was not going to be wise since he was an Alpha who she had saved from the brink of death five years ago. Plus, she was tied to the chair and her mouth had been tapped yet again since she freaked out and screamed at him like any normal victim in a thriller movie.

stranded outside the Steel Roads MC compound, and the most dangerous man she's ever seen
pulls her out of the dark.
Jett Harlow doesn't do innocent. He doesn't do complications. And he absolutely doesn't do
preachers' daughters with wide eyes and a mouth that won't quit. But Grace stumbles into his
world and refuses to flinch, refuses to be dismissed, and refuses to stop looking at him like she
sees something worth saving underneath all that leather and sin.
He's spent fifteen years burying a past that would destroy everything he's built. The club. The
loyalty. The careful control he keeps on the darkness inside him. Grace makes him want to let it
breathe and that terrifies him more than any enemy ever has.
But someone from Jett's past hasn't forgotten what he did to survive. And a threat moving
quietly through Millhaven is about to shatter the world Grace has always known, forcing her to
choose between the safety of everything familiar and the man who makes her feel like she was
never truly alive until now.
He knows he'll ruin her. She knows he's worth the risk. The devil always did have a weakness
for grace.
She stumbled into his darkness. He never found his way back to the light until her.

The night I caught my boyfriend with another woman, I didn’t cry—I got drunk.
Whiskey burned down my throat… and then I saw him.
Broad shoulders in a tailored suit, dangerous calm in his eyes.
Sin wrapped in silk.
I swayed over, heat in my veins. “Do you take clients?”
His lips curved. “I know you.”
Cigar smoke and cologne surrounded me as I slid onto his lap.
My fingers traced his jaw, brushed the cold steel at his waist.
He pulled me closer—solid, unyielding.
His mouth crashed onto mine—hot, deep, claiming.
Every kiss stole my breath, every touch made me arch into him.
By the time he carried me out, I was dizzy, aching for more.
In his bed, he was fire and control—pushing me to the edge, breaking me apart, again and again.
I woke tangled in his sheets, skin marked by his possession.
I ran before dawn, thinking it was just revenge.
But one night with him had already sealed my fate—
because the man who made me burn was far more dangerous than I imagined.

"If I come any closer you will die, and if I remain in this exact spot you will still die, so make your choice."

I was backed into the dark alley, the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against my temple. Marco's goons had me cornered. I thought this was the end. I thought I would die without ever knowing the truth about my mother.

Then he stepped out of the shadows. Alex Ferrini.

He didn't look worried. He looked... bored. And terrifying. "Do you not know who she belongs to?" he asked calmly, adjusting his cuffs.

Before I could blink, shots rang out. Bang! Bang! Bang! The men dropped dead around me like flies. My knees gave out, but Alex caught me, pulling me into his hard chest. He smelled of gunpowder, expensive cologne, and rage.

He gripped my hair, tilting my head back roughly. "I told you not to run," he growled, his eyes burning into mine. "You are mine, Alessia. My prisoner. My property. And tonight, I'm done playing games."

Amelia Hartley never planned to be someone’s headline, especially not his.

She prefers facts, deadlines, and stories with proof. Fake dating a campus heartbreaker? Not a chance. Especially not Nathan Miller, Fairview University’s hockey captain, notorious bad boy, and constant tabloid favorite.

But when a journalism assignment throws them together, one impulsive public claim turns Amelia into Nathan’s fake girlfriend and drags her into a world of cameras, jealous exes, and rumors powerful enough to end his shot at going pro. The deal is simple: pretend, redeem his broken image, and make her ex regret everything.

The problem? Nathan took things too far, he forgot the rules and fell in love first.

He shows up at her dorm and classes, walks and defends her without hesitation. Looks at her like she’s the only thing that matters. And when a devastating accusation threatens his career, Amelia starts digging, only to uncover truths that change how she sees Nathan, and how deeply she’s already fallen.

Because fake dating was never meant to feel real.
And love was never supposed to hurt like this.

Fleeing an abusive husband with nothing but a half-packed duffel and her six years old daughter, Kaia didn’t expect salvation to come with a job offer.

Good pay. Free housing. Zero drama.
At least, that’s what her best friend promised.

But nobody warned her that her neighbors growl when they’re turned on.

Now she’s got multiple Alphas sniffing around like she’s the last bite of dessert. They’re hot. They’re dangerous. And they say, she, a human, is theirs.

She has no clue what being "the mate" really is but when claiming season starts?

She might just let the Alphas do their worst!

PS: contains M*M scenes.

She was supposed to be dead.
Seven years ago, Aria Moretti vanished the night her entire mafia family was slaughtered in a coordinated massacre that shook New York to its core. The world mourned the loss of the Moretti empire. Her enemies celebrated.
Everyone assumed the sheltered nineteen year old princess had burned with the rest of them.
They were wrong. Aria survived pregnant, alone, and running for her life. She fled to Lagos, gave birth in hiding, and spent seven years becoming someone her father never allowed her to be: dangerous.
Now she's back. Not for closure. Not for peace. For revenge. But the moment she steps foot in Manhattan, she collides with the one man she never expected to see again Dante Russo, the soldier she loved and was forced to betray to survive.
He's no longer the loyal soldier from her father's organization. He's a self-made billionaire by day and the city's most powerful crime lord by night. Ruthless. Untouchable. Still devastatingly attractive.
He demands she marry him. Not for love for survival. Dante needs a wife to legitimize his expansion into international markets. Aria needs his protection and access to his network to hunt her family's killer.
Six months. One contract. No feelings. No lies. Except Aria is hiding the biggest lie of all.


"Seven years," he said softly. Just for me. "That's a long time to stay dead, Aria."
Hearing my real name in his voice nearly broke me.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Liar." The word was almost gentle. Almost. "You always were a terrible liar. That's how I knew."
"Knew what?"
He leaned in. His breath warm against my ear.
"That you'd come back. Eventually. Because whatever you're running from? It's finally caught up to you."

The Hollow doesn't give you back the way it found you.

Three years inside those walls, and Elowen survived what shouldn't be survived. She came home expecting warmth, relief, maybe even gratitude for the sacrifice she'd made.

Instead, they looked at her with pity — like something hollowed out and broken beyond repair.

Her strength, gone. Her fortune, gone. Her family whispered omega behind closed doors, certain the Hollow had ruined her.**

They should have looked closer.

She thought she'd only been surviving. She didn't realize she'd become the kind of doctor who could do what no healer had ever done before.

But the worst part? She's learning that her skills can save bodies — but not the cursed prince rotting from the inside. Not the kingdom balanced on the edge of collapse.

For that, she'll need what the Hollow left inside her.

Something far more dangerous than medicine.

Dark. Powerful. Dangerous.

My name is Mia Donovan, a twenty-two-year-old small-town girl working as a kitchen hand to make ends meet. My world is changing—both for the better and worse. James Maxwell, a gorgeous billionaire with beautiful Prussian-blue eyes, is the man behind this. He makes my heart flutter and my knees shake. When he kisses me, my world melts into a pool of exotic sensation. But his world is dark and dangerous, and being with him is a risk both to my life and my sanity.

Pain shot through my body as I woke up. Every muscle ached in ways I'd never felt before. My face burned as memories flooded back: his body pressed against mine, his deep voice commanding "Engrave this name into your soul. From this night forward, you're mine—for a lifetime, for eternity." But now? He was gone. Just a card left behind like I was some transaction. My fingers trembled as I crumpled that paper and threw it in the trash. "I'll take your money, Barrett Thompson," I whispered bitterly. "But I don't need you."

Story Of a Mysterious Professor, a girl full of life and Mr Stranger.
** "Now you'll just follow my command." As he told me, I nodded my head meekly, sitting on the desk. "Professor wants his favourite student to stand up and come to him." As he commanded, I stood up and sauntered to him. My heartbeat is accelerating with every step which I'm taking toward him.
"Now remove your top for your professor, my favourite student." As he ordered, I flushed, moving my eyelashes down.
"Do it fast, Princess. I'm waiting." As he spoke, I moved my eyes up at him shyly. He pointed his finger at my top. I held the hem of my green top and pulled it over my head, gazing at his handsome face sheepishly.
"Now give it to me." As he said, I instantly gave my top to him, and he inhaled my scent from the top, closing his eyes.
"Your scent is exquisite, Princess." He whispered after opening his eyes. He kept my top on the table.
"Now this." He pointed his finger at my bra, asking me take it off. I blushed hard before taking my hands behind and unlocking it. This is really increasing my excitement. As I removed it, he moved his eyes down at my twins and then up at me.
"You're really beautiful, Princess." He complimented me, touching my heart. He pulled out his hand, and I gave my bra to him. Then like this, I pulled out my jeans and undies too and gave them to him. This is arousing my desires more. He is gazing at my body like he's gazing at the stars. "I like you like this. You are so beautiful, Princess. For me, your body is perfect from every corner." I smiled at him.

"I marked her... to protect my title. But I left the one who owned my heart behind."

They destroyed her father. Now she's racing straight into the heart of enemy territory.

Mia Chen has one rule, never let them see your face. As the underground racing legend "Ghost Rider," she's untouchable until a rigged race tears off her mask and exposes her identity to the worst possible person. Dax Steele, VP of the Iron Wolves MC, the club that bankrupted her father and drove him to an early grave.

Now she owes $50,000 to men who don't accept apologies, and Dax offers her a deal she can't refuse, race for the Iron Wolves in the inter-club championship, and he'll clear her debt. But working for her enemy means living in his world, sleeping under his roof, and discovering that everything she believed about her father's death might be a lie.

Dax has secrets of his own, evidence that his father was framed, and the real culprit is still out there. He needs Mia's skills on the track and her mechanical genius in the garage. What he doesn't need is the fire she ignites in his blood every time she defies him.

As they dig deeper into the past, attraction sparks into something dangerous. Because in the biker world, loyalty is everything and loving your enemy could get you both killed.

She came for revenge. She stayed for the truth. She'll risk everything for him.

Mara is a human slave in a wolf-ruled kingdom.

When the forbidden mate bond claims her as the mate of Zevran, the cursed wolf no female survives, she’s sentenced to die.

But she doesn’t.

Now hunted by the King and bound to a mate everyone fears, Mara must choose between dying in chains or burning the kingdom to the ground.

They accused me of killing my parents. The pack—once my family—turned their backs on me. My mate rejected me without a word. My wolf—my soul—was bound and silenced, leaving me broken, hollow.
I was forced to serve as a maid in the pack I once called home. Every day was a torment—mocked, humiliated, tortured by those I should have trusted most. I was a shadow, consumed by pain and despair.
Then he came.
Caesar—the most feared Alpha in the world. The conqueror. I should have feared him. And I did. But when his eyes met mine, something shifted. For the first time, someone saw me, not the broken girl, but me. His touch was gentle, his kiss beneath the first snow a promise I wasn’t alone anymore.
In his childhood cave, he healed my fears and scars, worshipping my broken pieces like they were sacred. I thought we’d be together forever—until he made me his Luna and declared I was an Alpha too. His love didn’t just protect me; it was meant to make me strong enough to protect myself.
“They tried to break you,” he whispered, his voice steady. “But I’ll be the one to heal you.”
He claimed me—body, soul, heart—and vowed to protect me at any cost. But can a girl, betrayed and erased, truly belong to a man who owns everything? And can love born from so much pain ever be enough to save us both?

A ruined promise. A reckless threat. And a proposal that turns vengeance into a dangerous game.
