Chapter 1
I looked down at my arms, they are covered in blood. I feel panicked, I am scared. I look all around me, it looks like a wall of coffins. I see a torch on the wall I run to it to light it. No matter what I do it will not light, it too is covered in blood. I hear whispers and see shadows; they are closing on me. I cannot let them catch me. So, I start running down the hall, I check my arms again and they are still covered in blood. Whose blood is this? Why is there so much blood? I look forward so I do not trip, and I keep running as fast as my legs can carry me. At this point my lungs are burning so bad, I am breathing so hard I am sure I will pass out soon if I do not take a rest. After a few minutes I start to see a light at the end of the hall. That must be my escape.
Just a few feet more I tell myself. I feel something grab my leg and pull me down. I throw my hands out to try to catch myself from falling. As soon as I hit the ground, I instantly regret it, pain shoots up my wrists and up my arms. I scream in pain, but I know I do not have time for this. I look down at my leg to see what had grabbed me. Nothing. There is nothing there, I quickly get up using my elbows to try to support my weight, I am not sure my wrists can take it. I start running again, I must get out of here. Just as I reach the end, the lights are from 1000s of burning candles. In the middle of the room is a single book on a book stand. It looks dark and scary. There is a star with a circle around it. I feel the need to grab this book and run. I feel it pulling me towards it. Calling me to open its pages. Whatever this book is, it is not of light and love. It is from a dark place, full of darkness.
Should I leave the book here? Should I take the book? My mind is panicked, and I know whatever was following me should be coming through the doors any second. Get me out of here. Get me out of here. I squeeze my eyes tightly I need a way out. Suddenly I feel little tickles going around my body. I am frozen, this is it, it finally got me. I am done for. This is the end for me. Then a fresh breeze of air hits me, I feel my long blond hair that is matted with blood tickle my arm as it dances with the wind. I open my eyes I am staring at an old stone building in a cemetery.
The cemetery is old and run down. Whoever the keeper was gave up a long time ago? I turn around to get a look at my surroundings. How did I end up here? What was happening? I am supposed to be studying for my exam for collage not doing this. I must get away. I am in the middle of a dirt road, whatever happened ill must think about it later, for now I must get away. I start running down the road and without thinking I throw my right hand into the sky and scream “archangel Michael save me!”
I shot straight up in bed. I look around my room, I see my purple walls and my light purple blanket. I sign with relief; it is just a nightmare. I have a very uneasy feeling about my dream. I am taken from my thoughts when there is a knock on my door “Chloe sweetheart, are you okay?” I hear my mother ask, worry in her voice. “I am fine mom, just a bad dream.” I reply to her. Was I okay? The nightmares have been more frequently lately. “okay, well breakfast will be ready soon. You have to finish packing” I heard her walk away from my door and down the steps.
I sigh again, I’ll take a shower to clear my head and wash away my nightmare. I go to a packed box at the end of my bed, I shuffle threw the clothes till I grab my favorite pink sweater and a pair of black skinny jeans. I have my own shower, being the oldest of two siblings had its perks. I got the second master bedroom and bath.
When I stepped into the bathroom, I laid my clothes on the bathroom counter, my bathroom was nicely done. I have a large garden bathtub and a standing shower. We lived in an average house, nothing about it is fancy. My dad is a very ‘D.I.Y’ kind of person. I am leaving for collage tomorrow and I know I will miss this place. I have spent my whole 17 years in this room. My family lives in Detroit Michigan. When I opted to go to college, I decided to apply to places far away, I want out of this town. My family is not too happy about it, they wanted me to stay local and stay living with them.
I feel ready to go venture on my own. Go out and see the world plus my best friend Taylor applied with me and got accepted. With a nice donation from her family to the school we were “randomly selected” to be roommates. Taylor’s family is loaded with cash, I am not even sure why she even wanted to go to college, her family has so much money that she would never need to work a day in her life. Her children’s, children would never have to work a day in their life. But despite her no need for college, I am very glad that we will be attending together. We have been best friends since kindergarten. We have always been inseparable; I could never see starting the next steps of my life without her with me.
I looked in the bathroom mirror at my reflection, my long blond hair slightly messy goes down past the middle of my back. Growing up people always accused me of bleaching it, I have never added chemicals to my hair. It is completely my natural hair color. Which is odd since I am the one in my family with blonde hair and blue eyes, everyone else has brown hair and brown eyes. When I brought it up to my family in the past, they just said “God wanted you that way” they are very religious people. I have a very skinny body, not sure how I managed to be so skinny and have big boobs, but I did. Taylor always tells me how I have a killer body that women would kill for.
I let the bathtub fill up with water and bubbles before sinking down into it, stopping at my nose. I have always loved water, baths, swimming, even the ocean. I closed my eyes trying to relax my body and mind. I took slow even breaths. When I was sure at least twenty minutes had a past it was time to get out. I opened my eyes, shocked to reveal that there was blood everywhere. I was bathing in blood, there was blood all over the bathroom walls and counters. I let out a scream, what is happening to me. I jumped out of the bathtub and when I did, I slipped and hit the ground, hard. The fall knocked the wind out of my chest. I laid in the floor, naked, wet, and afraid. My mom busted threw the door with horror on her face as she looked at me on the ground. I looked around, and the blood was gone.
“well I’m glad you’re okay, but what frightened you so bad?” my mom handed me a towel. I shrugged, “I was trying to get out and slipped on the sidestep” I lied as I got up and wrapped the towel around myself. I could not tell her about the blood I thought I saw. She was already overly worried about me moving so far away if I told her she would never let me leave for college in the morning.
“okay, well breakfast is ready get dressed and come downstairs.” She shut my bathroom door as she walked out. I know that they deserve the truth, but I could not give it to them. I started drying off my body so I could put on my clothes. I was drying off my legs when I noticed it, a bruised on my ankle, the perfect shape of a hand.

Bella and Her Beast
.
Locked in her frozen tower, Bella dreamed of warmth, of touch, of freedom and of love. Cursed with the power of ice and snow, she’s spent her life alone. A secret they tried to protect the world from. Her only escape comes in the form of the books she reads. Stories of heat, desire, and the kind of love that could melt even her frostbitten heart.
Damien is the Beast. A dragon King with a temper forged in flame and a soul hollowed by duty. The world fears him. The people call him a monster. But beneath the scales and the rage lies a man who has never been touched by love.
When frost meets fire, the world shatters. She was never meant to leave her tower. He was never meant to find her. But destiny doesn’t bow to kings or care for cages and now the question burns through them both: Can Bella have her Beast? Or will the girl of snow melt in the heat of his desire?
.
"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.
"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
Lethal Web of Mafia's Revenge (Sequal to "Innocent in Mafia's Web)
He was a beast inhabiting this mansion, inflicting inhuman torture on my poor soul. He had created a living hell for me, this pitiful girl, within his castle.
On this cold winter night, he threw my wounded body into the icy pool, arrogantly enjoying it all, drinking and smoking expensive cigars. A satisfied, cold smile played on his lips as he reveled in my pain. His face was filled with the darkness of sin.
“How...more...am I…still…standing?” I stammered, my lips trembling.
Zain paused, thinking. Then, turning away from her, he replied:
“Until you die!”
With that, he left. As he wished. At that moment, my wish came true; I died.
But not in a frozen pool; I was struck in the head by a bullet from afar, blood splattering everywhere—that was far more gruesome.
My consciousness began to fade, but suddenly, I opened my eyes again and found myself mopping the floor in an ordinary restaurant.
I was startled: What happened? I was reborn? This is unbelievable!
Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?

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."

After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

Iron And Glamour Just Don't Mix
Well… Sometimes you just might turn out to be right.
It turns out, the fae stole my little brother. In his place? A pixie with boundary issues and a talent for home repairs.
I’ve spent my life taking care of everyone else. So when my baby brother is taken, I don’t hesitate. I walk straight into a faerie mansion and make a bargain with its infuriatingly charming master.
Kie is everything you’d expect from a dangerous fae, beautiful, political, and entirely too amused by me. Power wrapped in a smirk. Sensual, mischievous, and far too aware of the effect he has on people. He agrees to help me find my brother.
For a price.
Now I’m bound by a faerie bargain and navigating a world of glamour, manipulation, and ancient rules I definitely should have learned sooner, enchanted forests, political games, magical contracts, and a fae lord who treats seduction like a perfectly reasonable negotiation tactic.
Iron is how I keep people out.
Glamour is how he draws them in.
And apparently, they just don’t mix.
