Introduction

Childhood sweethearts, Ethan and Lily have always harbored secret affection for one another. Yet, misunderstandings lead each to believe the other's heart belongs to another. They spent three years in a loveless marriage. When a sudden car accident jolts their realities, the thought of a life without Lily serves as a catalyst for Ethan to confront his fears and fight for the love he's always desired.

Engaged since before they were born, James and Sophia were considered the perfect match. When Sophia's family went bankrupt, everyone expected James to cancel the engagement, but he didn't. They got married. James's distant demeanor created a chasm between them. Receiving pictures of him kissing another woman became the breaking point for Sophia, prompting her to seek a divorce. Now James must find a way to win her heart or he would lose the only light in his life.

University power couple, Alexander and Isabella were torn apart by her father's manipulations, sacrificing their love for his future and safety--Isabella broke up with him. Years later, Alexander is no longer the poor boy that could be dismissed. He owns a successful law firm, while Isabella's family faces financial ruin. In a desperate move, her father arranges her marriage to Alexander, thrusting them back into each other's lives. As Alexander initially bent on revenge finds out the truth of their breakup, and strives to rekindle their love, Isabella grapples with the feeling that she doesn't deserve him.

Chapter 1

“Will you be coming back for dinner?” Lily asked as Ethan sat at the table, reading the morning’s newspaper as he ate breakfast in quick bites.

Ethan, already dressed in one of his tailored suits–it was a blue that matched his eyes, glanced at her briefly. “I have an important business dinner.” He answered flatly, getting up without another word and leaving the room.

Today was their wedding anniversary. And once again he would be spending it elsewhere. A familiar ache welled in her chest. She wondered why she bothered anymore, like she hadn’t been disappointed enough, three years of marriage and he was still as cold as their wedding day. She should be used to this by now. But somehow, every year, it hurt even more.

After breakfast, Lily told the butler to cancel the dinner she had planned since she was going out with friends. The butler–uncle Dan– watched Lily go upstairs in pity, she had been planning the dinner for weeks, and even personally baked a cake to celebrate.

“What about the cake?”  He asked quietly

Lily paused. She debated telling him to toss it in the trash, but decided against it. “Put it in the fridge.”

When she got to her room, she looked at the gift box she had left on the nightstand. Picking it up, she put it in the cupboard with the other undelivered gifts of past years. The ring she designed for their wedding. The vintage watch she spent a long time searching for. The cufflinks she designed for him, she had used Aquamarines–his month’s birthstone. The ties she carefully picked out. Lily had lost count of the number of gifts she had prepared for his birthday, holidays, and their anniversary. He never spent time with her for her to have the chance to give them to him. Now there was a new addition to the collection. She locked the cupboard and got dressed to go to her flower shop– the only place where her efforts paid off.

The flower shop had been an unexpected inheritance. Before her cousin passed away after a long battle with cancer, she had insisted–pleaded even for her to take over the business. With her cousin dying a few days after her wedding, she reopened the flower shop in her stead. Lily hadn’t imagined herself dealing with flowers. But she took the leap of faith and resigned from her position of head designer at her father’s company. As she stepped into this new world of colors and fragrances, learning about different flowers and what they stood for had filled her with a newfound purpose, she also got new inspiration for design. With her brother serving as CEO and her sending her designs on the company, her parents had nothing to worry about while they travelled around the world.

Her phone pinged pulling her from her thoughts. Multiple messages from Chloe, her best friend.

“I heard Stacy is the new brand ambassador for Ethan’s company. What is your husband thinking, flaunting his mistress in public?”

Lily’s heart sank as she opened the attached photos. Ethan stood next to Stacy—Smiling, she tried to remember the last time he had smiled at her, but couldn't. Was it high school? Or even longer before that? Stacy Peters was beautiful and confident, always attracted attention when she walked into a room. She was one of the top actresses of their generation, holding the company’s latest product in her hand as they posed for the press. Today they were a picture-perfect couple.

The last time she had taken a picture with Ethan was on their wedding day.

Even then, after they had gotten to their new home, he had also left her. To meet Stacy.

He had spent every one of their anniversaries with her.

The shop door’s bell jingled, Lily stood up, thinking it was a customer, it was already past closing hour, and all the other staff had left. But it was just Chloe.

“Hey girl. It’s party time.” In a skin-tight black dress that was molded to her curves, stiletto heels, and her red hair almost the same shade as her lips under the lights, surrounded by flowers she looked a little out of place. ”Are you fine?” She asked concern all over her face. She stood in front of Lily taking in her expression.

“I’m okay,” Lily replied, shaking her head.

“This morning–” Chloe started.

“I’m fine–really, it’s not the first time.” Lily interrupted. “What we have is a business marriage, no feelings involved.”

Chloe was the only person who knew the truth about her marriage with Ethan. To everyone else–even her family, they were the perfect couple, childhood sweethearts to high school classmates, their wedding was the most talked about for years. A match made in heaven. Only she knew, in the three years of their marriage, they barely even spoke to each other.

“But you love him.”

Lily paused. Sometimes she hated how well Chloe knew her. She hated how weak she was. Hated how her heart leaped when Ethan so much as glanced her way, even if the glance was distant and cold. Hated how happy she was when he gave her a gift, even though it was always handpicked by his secretary.

“I don’t want to talk about Ethan right now.” She said shutting down her laptop. “Where are we going tonight?”

“A bar that just opened in the square, it’s the hottest spot online, took a bit of effort for me to make a reservation,” Chloe said, her face lighting up, a mischievous glint entering her eyes. “I heard the bartender is hot— and single. Lemme show you a picture.”

Chloe opened the bar’s Instagram page and turned her phone to face her. The picture was captured when the bartender was mid drink mixing. He was handsome, and had a sunny vibe around him. He looked different from Chloe’s usual type.

“You’re interested in him?” Lily asked, arching her brow. She picked up her bag and stood up. “I’m ready.”

“No. No. No. I’m reserving him for you, since your husband has someone you should too.”

“Em, thank you but no thanks.”

“Oh come on” Chloe whined, hooking her arm around Lily’s as they walked out of the store.

“My best friend is the hottest and prettiest, she hasn’t even had her first kiss yet. If this continues you’ll die a virgin.” She fake cried.

Lily shook her head with a chuckle, wondering where Chloe got all her wild ideas from.

Across the street, Linda, the owner of the bakery, was leaving with her boyfriend, and she had a bouquet of tulips in her hands. She remembered it was also their anniversary, every year– since the bakery opened–without fail they would go out hand in hand on this day. They said hello to her and Chloe when they passed each other. Watching them smile as they walked, she felt a pang of envy– she also wanted what they have, even just a little.

Prince Rafe leans over me, holding himself up on one elbow as he gazes at my face. I feel his eyes wandering over every surface from my brow to my eyes, down my nose, to my lips and chin, and then returning to hold my gaze for a second. The small smile at the corner of his mouth makes me think he likes what he sees.
His hand is cool when it brushes a loose curl from my cheek, but I don’t jerk away from him. I have no idea what’s going on. I don’t understand why I’m here. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. It seems like a lot of powerful people want me—dead or alive. And yet, all I can think about right now is how badly I want this vampire’s hands on my body.


I live in a desolate village on the edge of the Vampire King’s lands. This used to be wolf shifter territory, but now, we are just trying to survive.
When I mess up and find myself in a culling, I know I’m dead. No wolf shifters ever survive these events.
And after the stunt I pulled in the middle of the village, Prince Rafe probably wants me dead.
Is it a good thing or a bad thing when a vampire looks at you like you’re a snack?
Something tells me, once I reach the castle, I’ll be missing my miserable existence in the village.
But then—it turns out I have no freaking idea who I even am, and when the royals start referring to me as Princess Ainslee, I realize my life is about to take a turn—for better or worse.

Mr Sutton and I have had nothing but a working relationship. He bosses me around, and I listen. But all of that is about to change. He needs a date for a family wedding and has chosen me as his target. I could and should have said no, but what else can I do when he threatens my job?

It is agreeing to that one favour that changed my entire life. We spent more time together outside of work, which changed our relationship. I see him in a different light, and he sees me in one.

As things heat up between Mr Sutton and me, I am asked to become his submissive. How does one even become such a thing with no experience or desire to be one?

“Put them on.” I took the dress and the underwear, then I wanted to go back to the bathroom, but she stopped me. It felt like my heart stopped for a second when I heard her order. “Get dressed here. Let me see you.” I didn't get what she meant at first, but when she stared at me with impatience, I knew I must do what she said. I opened my robe and put it on the white sofa next to me. Holding the dress, I wanted to put it on when I heard her again. “Stop.” My heart nearly jumped out of my chest. “Put the dress on the sofa for a second and stand straight.” I did what she said. I stood there completely naked. She examined me from head to toe with her eyes. The way she checked my naked body made me feel terrible. She moved my hair behind my shoulders, gently running her index finger over my chest, and her gaze stopped at my breasts. Then she continued the procedure. Her gaze slowly moved down between my legs, and she looked at it for a while. “Spread your legs, Alice.” She squatted down, and I closed my eyes when she moved to see me from closer. I only hoped that she wasn’t a lesbian or something, but finally she stood up with a satisfied smile. “Perfectly shaved. Men are like that. I’m sure my son will like that too. Your skin is nice and soft, and you are muscular, but not too much. You are perfect for my Gideon. Put the underwear on first, then the dress, Alice.” I had many things to say, but I swallowed them back.

My life should have been perfect—successfully starting college, with a caring boyfriend and a best friend. Until I discovered the two of them having sex the night before my eighteenth birthday. Then, during my first full transformation, I discovered a terrifying truth: I am the Soul Bond of Derek Stone, the Alpha of the Darkwood Pack.

The problem is, he's the brother of my ex-boyfriend Bradley.

As a lowly Omega werewolf, I have no right to desire a union with a superior wolf, especially this Alpha leader. Derek Stone isn't just the leader of the Darkwood Pack; he's also a formidable business tycoon. His reputation for ruthlessness makes other packs tremble.

But the ancient werewolf law is clear: if a Pack Alpha rejects his Soul Bond, a curse will descend upon us both.

When Derek suddenly hires me as his assistant secretary, I find myself in a dangerous game. Daily close contact makes the wolf inside me excited, while his cold attitude breaks my heart. Is he deliberately torturing me, or is there something more complex hidden beneath his icy exterior?

As the attraction between us grows stronger, I must make a choice: continue to endure this painful connection, find a way to break the Soul Bond, or make the Pack Alpha fall in love with me and accept me as his Soul Bond.
