Introduction
They were orphans. They grew up together. They survived together. They killed the tyrant Alpha together.
But when the time came for him to propose his love for her and make her his Luna, all she received was a stab to her stomach.
He betrayed her for another. For the late tyrant’s daughter.
He buried her and thought that she had died. But just like how fate had played a trick on her, it also played a trick on him.
She survived, but was stuck in the den of a ruthless Lycan King, after a mate pull, which was stronger than anyone had ever felt, pulled them together by force.
{She is Demira, and welcome to her story}
…
This book is a dark werewolf romance story that is filled with pure chaotic drama and a little bit of tension and suspense.
So, add to your libraries, because you are in for a ride that will be stuck in your mind for a really long time.
Chapter 1
“Why?”. In an empty abandoned room, a voice, filled with pain, and almost low like a whisper, escaped from a young lady's lips.
She sat on the dirty floor, with her knees almost touching her chest, and her arms wrapped around the legs.
Her chin was also resting on her knees, and tears filled her eyes, making them blurry. The most tragic day of her life happened to her a few hours ago, and the memory was so fresh that it felt like it was happening right now.
“Why did you do this to me?”.
“Were your promises a lie? Was your love for me a lie?”. She asked as she looked up and stared at the ceiling with a heavy sigh.
A drop of tear escaped from her eye, and she ignored the cut in her stomach.
Including her clothes, which had been drenched in her blood.
{Many hours ago}
“We are close to our goal, Demira. I promise you, now that we have defeated the wicked tyrant Alpha, I will step up as the new Alpha, and I am certainly going to make you my wife and my Luna”.
Kayson said to her, and because both of them had been through hell together, she actually believed him.
They were both orphans. Different blood. But they stuck to each other and relied on each other.
But one day changed their lives forever. They were captured and taken away by the tyrant Alpha’s warriors, into the place called ‘The cage’, where werewolves were trained to become assassins.
Only the two strongest survivors out of each 50 sets of captured werewolves would be given the privilege to leave the cage and do the tyrant Alpha's bidding.
But they must be fed poison before they are let out, so that the tyrant Alpha would be able to control them as he wanted.
Both of them went through hell, but they both awakened their wolves, which were so powerful, and made them survive.
The news of it reached the tyrant King’s ears. He gave them honors, wealth, and power, but all that came with huge consequences. Their peace of mind.
They couldn't sleep well at night because of the countless lives they had taken.
But if they did not comply with that tyrant Alpha's wishes, he was going to turn against them and have them killed.
So, Kayson came up with an idea of killing the tyrant King. It was an idea that everyone had thought about but didn't dare to do, because the tyrant Alpha was such a formidable warrior himself. That was why he was able to become an Alpha after killing the real Alpha.
Demira did not agree with the idea at first, but after being persuaded by Kayson, and because of the love she had for him, she agreed to walk along that perilous path with him, and was ready to die with him if everything didn't go as planned.
But after poisoning the tyrant Alpha and engaging in a fight with him which lasted for a whole day and an entire night, Demira gave him the final blow and had him killed.
In the blink of an eye, Kayson became the new Alpha, and because the entire pack agreed to it, the warriors had no choice but to pay their respects to their new Alpha.
And her? She got betrayed in the worst possible way.
It was night.
Both of them were walking side by side in the garden, with her arm tucked in his arm.
There was a bright clueless smile on her face, as she stared briefly at the dark sky that was filled with an auspicious number of stars.
The moon was shining very brightly, making her think that he had brought her out there to propose to her.
But after he made her let go of his arm and caused her to turn to him, what stabbed her stomach was his sharp claws.
Her eyes widened, and for the first time in a long time, her world spun around in a way she could not fathom.
Her hands shook, before they touched her stomach. When she stared at her palms, she saw that the blood gushing out of her stomach had stained them.
She looked at the man she loved with pure disbelief, but all she saw was a cold-hearted face. The love in his eyes had completely vanished in a flash.
She did not recognize him anymore.
While she was still trying to understand what was going on, she collapsed to her knees on the ground.
Her eyes were getting blurry.
She was dying and had started panting fast. It was loud enough, and she could hear it.
“Wh- why?”. She gasped for air as she asked him, and her eyes stung from getting red.
He squatted in front of her and held onto her shoulders, as if supporting her and preventing her from collapsing any further.
He grinned, before leaning close to her ear. “Why?”. He asked her in a mocking tone, before he continued to say, “I can't allow someone as powerful as you to remain by my side. You are too dangerous, Demira. More dangerous than me”.
“So please, just die”.
“And, know that I had lied to you before. I told you that I stole the antidote to the poison that was a threat to our lives if we dare go against that bastard Alpha”.
“But, you had no clue that I had not told you the whole truth. Of course, I stole the antidote, but I gave you the wrong antidote and took the entire antidote for myself. But even after that, you were able to fight stronger than me. And the remaining trained assassins of that bastard, I was the one who killed them all. I can't have someone as strong as them in my pack”.
“I wouldn't have been able to do that without the help of Elora. And yes, she's the one who is going to become my future Luna and bear my heirs”.
After he cruelly said these words to her, he rose to his feet, causing her to struggle with kneeling straight.
And it was at this moment that Elora showed up.
She appeared behind Kayson, with her hand placed intimately on his shoulder.
She was the daughter of the late tyrant Alpha, but just like the rest of the pack, she hated her father and wanted him long dead.
“Oh. Look who we have here. Are you in pain, Demira?”. She said with a sneer, before ignoring the pale faced Demira and focusing her attention on Kayson.
Her hand reached out to his face and caressed his cheek.
“Are you sure you are not going to regret this? After all, according to you, both of you have a long history together before I showed up in the picture”. She asked him.
Listening to her say that, Kayson held her hand that was caressing his cheek.
Without remorse, he spitted out, “Those moments with her are merely history. You are the one whom I truly love, and nothing can ever change that”.
Demira felt like choking upon hearing his words. Her head felt dizzy because of the blood she had lost.
She tried to force herself to stay awake, but her eyes betrayed her.
She wanted to get up, grab him, and yell at him. She wanted to know what she did wrong to him, to the extent that he could betray her like this without batting an eye.
Most especially, she wanted revenge.
She knew how much she had given him.
How she always shielded him when they were stuck in ‘the cage’.
How she taught him the way to fight. How she taught him the way to survive.
How she helped him survive.
‘I swear, if there's a next life, I will make you pay for this, Kayson. I swear-’. She thought, before losing consciousness and collapsing completely on the ground.
What she thought was going to be a happy moment for her, turned out to be a moment she was never going to forget, even in the afterlife.

Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.
CHASING GHOSTS
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
Where The Ice Gives Way
Blake Atlas scents his mate the moment Charlotte arrives. The bond hits hard and unmistakable, but Charlotte doesn’t recognise it. She doesn’t know why her chest keeps pulling toward the one boy she absolutely cannot afford to want. Blake is Charlie’s new hockey captain. Charlie’s chance at making something good. Charlie makes it clear; his sister is off-limits and Blake tries to do the right thing, but secrets don’t stay buried forever. Rogues prowl the edges of town. The ice cracks. The bond tightens. Then Charlotte’s rare white wolf awakens, the very thing that makes her powerful, also makes her a target.
Shanti needs Shakti. (Peace needs strength.)
Where the Ice Gives Way is a slow-burn YA paranormal romance filled with fated mates, protective alpha energy, fierce sibling loyalty, found family pack bonds, hurt/comfort, and quiet, aching tension. It’s a story about first belonging, learning to be cared for, and what happens when the girl who has always held everyone else up finally falls, and someone catches her.
Reborn and Unleashed: The Boss Lady Takes No Prisoners
Now reborn, Vivian refuses to hide her strength. She's revealing her true identity, claiming her power, and rewriting her fate. No more submission, no more misunderstandings—this time, she'll take control of her life and her love.
As regretful brothers beg for forgiveness and powerful enemies fall at her feet, Vivian has one goal: to rise without mercy and make the man she once loved fall for her all over again—on her terms.
The MC Hacker’s Stolen Princess
She did not come to find out her father had promised her to another man.
As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.
Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.
Love's Deadly Equation
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.
MOONLIT CHASE
But no, I had to walk through the park at midnight like an idiot. Now I've seen something I can't unsee—a massive black wolf tearing apart three men, then shifting into the hottest guy I've ever laid eyes on.
Kieran Vaughn. Wealthy lawyer, werewolf, and apparently, he thinks I'm his mate.
Here's the problem: I don't do relationships. I definitely don't do supernatural things. I absolutely don't do rich guys who think they can control my life just because their inner wolf has decided I smell like home.
When hunters start targeting me to get to him, Kieran drags me into his pristine penthouse for "protection." Now I'm living with a man who looks at me like I'm his last meal, whose touch sets my skin on fire, and who's barely holding onto his control.
He says everyone he loves dies. I say that's not my problem except it is because I'm falling for this broken, dangerous man and his beast.
And in his world? Love will get you killed.
Fated to the Enemy: The Alpha's Witch Bride
My touch tames his inner beast.
… Until I find another woman’s bite mark on his neck.
As a holy witch, I shouldn't be sneaking out for Zuri—a cursed shape-shifter from a rival clan.
But our forbidden heat is intoxicating.
When his monstrous Primal breaks free, slaughtering everything in its path, even his fiercest warriors cower.
I don't.
I walk straight to the blood-soaked beast, press my body against his, and tame him with a single, desperate embrace.
There’s just one problem: his clan betrothed him to a Shaman’s daughter.
I tell myself it's purely political. I tell myself his heart is mine.
Until tonight.
He sneaks into the woods for me. We share a deep, hungry kiss under the moonlight.
But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...
Is a fresh, undeniable bite mark.
Mission: Steal the Male Lead
But the more Morwenna changes the story, the stranger the world becomes. The heroine seems to know the future, unseen spectators begin commenting on her life, and the gods watching from above grow obsessed with the drama unfolding before them. Trapped in a story where fate has already decided the ending, Morwenna must choose whether to follow the script or rewrite it entirely. But if the world itself was never meant to belong to its characters, can she steal the male lead before fate steals her freedom first?
My Billionaire Husband's Secret
He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.
He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.
But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.
Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.
Then a message arrived from someone called Sweet An.
Do you really know your husband?
From that day on, my life filled with shadows.
I suspected my husband of having an affair.
When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.
I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.
My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."
The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"
I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.
But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.
Does Lucas truly love me?
And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?
Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.
