Chapter 1
Michelle Stewart, a twenty nine year old beautiful lady with light brown hair, grey eyes, pointed nose and a plump pink lips. She s five feet eight inches tall with a body to die for.
Her dad is late, he died of cancer while her mom is a stay home mom. Michelle s father owns fancy restaurants in different cities of Washington which she currently manages.
Michelle is in a relationship with Derek, the son of a renowned businessman in the country. They ve been together for over four years and are still going strong.
Michelle was done with work for the day, so she decided to give Derek a call.
"Hey baby" she greeted as soon as he picked her call.
"Hey love"
Michelle felt like melting at the sound of his voice. They ve been together for quite awhile but she always felt butterflies erupt in her stomach whenever she hears that husky voice of his.
"Are you back from work?" she asked.
"Not yet. I still have a few things to take care of" He replied.
"Okay. I just wanted to let you know that I won t be making dinner tonight cos I m sooo tired. So, I was thinking of getting us Chinese. Would that be okay?" she asked while playing with the tip of her hair.
"You re free to do whatever you want, babe. You know I m your humble slave"
She blushed at his remark.
"I can t wait to see you" He continued.
Michelle was glad that he wasn t presently in front of her to see how crimson her cheeks had turned.
"Me too love" She replied.
"I better not distract you from what you were doing"
"You know you re welcome to distract me anytime"
"Okay, stop this now and go back to work" she commanded with a huge smile on her face.
Derek just chuckled because he was certain she was already red with embarrassment, which was why she wanted to end the call.
"Okay beautiful, I m only going to do so cos you asked… I love you" He then said.
"Love you too" She replied and then hung up.
After the call, she tidied her desk, collected her purse and walked out of the office, locking the door behind her.
Michelle told her most trusted employee, Sam that she was leaving, so he was now in charge. Sam acted as the manager whenever Michelle was absent.
She walked out of the restaurant and climbed into her silver Mercedes SLR McLaren Derek got for her on her twenty eight birthday.
Michelle stopped at a Chinese restaurant and ordered some Chinese takeout. After that she headed home.
Michelle drove into the beautiful compound with a well designed modern mansion. It s landscape is very large with an outdoor infinity pool. She got out of her car and went into the mansion, heading straight to the kitchen to re-heat the meal in the microwave. After re-heating the meal, she went into their bedroom and took off her heels and peach jacket, and remained in her white tank top and black skinny pants.
Inside the bedroom, was a king sized bed in the middle and a bench at the foot of the bed, with a TV right in front of the bed. There were two nightstands on each side of the TV with flower vase on each stand. The bedroom was predominantly designed with fine wood, with a touch of cream and brown.
The bathroom and walk in closet were on the right side of the bedroom.
Michelle decided to go to the living room to watch TV. While she was surfing through the TV, the front door opened revealing Derek in a navy blue suit and tie, with a white shirt and a pair of brogues.
Derek Howard Jr is a thirty year old man. He has a tanned skin, six feet three inches tall with a very black long hair and captivating grey eyes. He is ruggedly handsome with a broad and masculine body features.
Michelle ran up to him and gave him a tight hug. He dropped his briefcase and lifted her up by her thighs, causing her to wrap her legs around his torso and locked her lips with his in a passionate kiss.
"It looks like someone really missed me a lot today" Derek said with a light chuckle.
Michelle blushed and buried her face in the crook of his neck. Derek walked into the living room with Michelle still in his arms and gently put her down on the couch.
"How was your day at work?" she asked.
"Boring as always. I couldn t wait to come back home" He replied.
"Why don t you go take a shower while I set the table" She said, handing him his briefcase.
"Yes boss" He replied and gave her a quick kiss before heading upstairs.
After shower, Derek came downstairs to join Michelle in the dining room. He was now casual, wearing a black t-shirt and sweatpants. His long hair now poured out and slightly wet.
Michelle couldn t help but stare. She loved Derek s long hair so much and sometimes envied the fact that a guy could have hair this long.
"Nathan called me earlier today" Derek began.
"Really?! How is he doing?"
"He is fine. He called to let me know that he ll be returning to Washington"
"That s nice" Michelle replied.
"He said he d come live with us for awhile before he gets his own place, that s if you don t mind?"
"I don t mind at all… When will he be coming down, so I can make preparations and get the guest room ready?" she asked.
"He ll be coming on Saturday"
"That s five days from today… Then I have to call the cleaning agency tomorrow to come do some clean-up"
Derek gave a shrug.
"Do what you want, babe"

**
I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.

How Not To Fall For A Dragon
Which is why it was more than a little confusing when a letter arrived with my name already printed on a schedule, a dorm waiting, and classes picked out as if someone knew me better than I knew myself. Everyone knows the Academy, it’s where witches sharpen their spells, shifters master their forms, and every kind of magical creature learns to control their gifts.
Everyone except me.
I don’t even know what I am. No shifting, no magic tricks, nothing. Just a girl surrounded by people who can fly, conjure fire, or heal with a touch. So I sit through classes pretending I belong, and I listen hard for any clue that might tell me what’s hidden in my blood.
The only person more curious than me is Blake Nyvas, tall, golden-eyed, and very much a Dragon. People whisper that he’s dangerous, warn me to keep my distance. But Blake seems determined to solve the mystery of me, and somehow I trust him more than anyone else.
Maybe it’s reckless. Maybe it’s dangerous.
But when everyone else looks at me like I don’t belong, Blake looks at me like I’m a riddle worth solving.
Goddess Of The Underworld
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.
A pack of their own
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."
New to the world of shifters, Draven is human on the run. A beautiful girl who no one could protect. Domonic is the cold Alpha of the Red Wolf Pack. A brotherhood of twelve wolves that live by twelve rules. Rules which they vowed could NEVER be broken.
Especially - Rule Number One - No Mates

But she doesn’t know about the child she’s carrying or that the moment she left, Domonic decided rules were made to be broken - and now will he ever find her again? Will she forgive him?
The Human Among Wolves
My stomach twisted, but he wasn’t finished.
"You're just a pathetic little human," Zayn said, his words deliberate, each one hitting like a slap. "Spreading your legs for the first guy who bothers to notice you."
Heat rushed to my face, burning with humiliation. My chest ached — not from his words alone, but from the sick realization that I had trusted him. That I had let myself believe he was different.
I was so, so stupid.
——————————————————
When eigteen-year-old Aurora Wells moves to a sleepy town with her parents, the last thing she expects is to be enrolled in a secret academy for werewolves.

But when she catches the attention of Zayn, a brooding and infuriatingly powerful Lycan prince, her life gets a lot more complicated. Zayn already has a mate. He already has enemies.

Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.
Invisible To Her Bully
Falling For The Biker: The Vice President's Girl
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.
Dragged home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax—the Raven Reapers MC's vice president and her brother's best friend. He's infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting for a man she should never touch.
And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?
