His Dangerous Little Ghost

Introduction
I thought my petty revenge was flawless when I slashed a bully's tire with a razor blade hidden in my sleeve. But I was caught red-handed by the academy's most feared predator: Rowan King, the "Tyrant of the Ice."
He was Sylvia's rumored boyfriend. More importantly, he was the last person to see her that night.
With a single glance, he shattered my "good girl" facade. He knew my true identity as the street racer "Ghost," and he knew exactly why I had sneaked into his school.
I should have treated him as my prime suspect. But between his fiercely dominant advances and his reckless, deadly protection, he was making my heart race entirely out of control...
Chapter 1
It was my first day at the elite Spencer Academy.
The parking lot reeked of expensive sports car exhaust and the obnoxious, unbridled laughter of entitled rich pricks.
I stopped in my tracks.
A few yards ahead, Luke—the arrogant co-captain of the hockey team—was leaning against a brand-new black Porsche.
A cup of coffee in hand, he kicked a scholarship student hard in the back of the knee.
"Scrub harder, trash," Luke sneered, dumping the iced coffee right over the kid's head. "The air at Spencer is polluted by poor freaks like you. If you don't polish my hood ornament until it shines today, don't even think about showing your face at this school tomorrow."
Trembling from head to toe, the scholarship kid knelt on the ground, frantically wiping the hood with the sleeve of his uniform. A circle of guys and girls in custom-tailored uniforms surrounded them, snapping photos and jeering.
This was Spencer. A rotting cesspool ruled by old-money families and the elite hockey team.
I lowered my eyes. I didn't rush forward to play the hero. Only an idiot would do that.
The oversized Spencer uniform swallowed my figure completely. To anyone looking, I was just another shivering, harmless, "good girl" scholarship student.
But I took a deep breath, my thumb gently brushing against the razor-thin utility blade hidden inside my cuff.
Keeping my head down like a frightened rabbit, I clutched my books to my chest and hurried past the Porsche.
In the exact second I brushed past the sports car's front-right tire, my wrist flicked at a perfectly concealed angle.
The blade sliced cleanly into the thinnest part of the tire's rubber sidewall.
I tightened my grip on my books and kept walking briskly.
"Get in! I'm going to show these broke losers what a zero-to-sixty looks like!" Luke's arrogant roar echoed behind me.
The doors slammed shut. The engine roared to life.
I didn't even glance back. I just counted silently in my head: Three. Two. One.
BANG!
A deafening blast ripped through the air, sounding like a bomb detonating right in the middle of the parking lot.
The violent blowout caused the rapidly accelerating Porsche to instantly lose control. The pungent smell of burning, shredded rubber filled the air, immediately followed by the sickening crunch of the expensive front end smashing into a concrete pillar.
Car alarms blared in every direction. The crowd erupted into terrified screams, overlapping with Luke's furious, panic-stricken curses.
A cold smirk tugged at the corner of my mouth. I picked up my pace and slipped into the blind spot behind the academic building.
Nicely done.
Now, all I had to do was flush the rubber-dusted blade down a drain.
I stepped behind the wall and had just opened my palm.
When an incredibly oppressive draft of cold air suddenly hit me from behind.
I didn't even have a chance to turn around.
A massive, knuckle-heavy hand clamped around my wrist from behind like a steel vise!
SLAM.
An irresistible force shoved me hard against the brickwork.
A dull ache shot up my spine from the impact, and my books tumbled to the ground.
My instincts screamed at me to fight back. I prepared to drive my knee straight into my attacker's groin, but a split second before I could strike, his movements proved faster and infinitely more ruthless.
A solid, powerful leg clad in black motorcycle denim forced its way roughly between my thighs.
Forced to jerk my head up, my breath caught in my throat.
Rowan King.
Spencer Academy's "Tyrant of the Ice," captain of the hockey team, and billionaire heir.
And more importantly, the rumored boyfriend who might have been the reason my sister, Sylvia, was still lying in a coma.
His hard chest pressed heavily against mine as he stared down at me.
I was entirely enveloped in his scent—an intoxicating mix of sharp, icy cologne and the harsh tang of motor oil.
My heart hammered wildly out of control.
I couldn't tear my eyes away from his intensely masculine face, my gaze slipping traitorously down to his sharp, tense jawline.
Insanity.
I bit my lower lip hard and glared up at him, my chest heaving erratically.
"Let me go."
Rowan didn't say a word.
He just stared at my face, a mocking, cold smirk suddenly tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Ruthlessly, he pried my clenched fingers open, one by one.
I tried to fight him off, but it was useless. The difference in our strength was overwhelming.
The razor-thin utility blade sat completely exposed on my palm.
Rowan casually plucked the blade from my hand. He rolled it between his fingers, his gaze darkening with an intense, suffocating pressure.
"There are four hidden cameras in this sector," he murmured. His voice was deep and raspy, dripping with a lazy, teasing drawl. "Nice technique, bunny."
My pupils constricted.
He saw the whole thing.
I didn't try to lie my way out of it. I just glared at him, refusing to back down.
Rowan seemed highly satisfied with my reaction.
He finally leaned back an inch, withdrawing the leg he had wedged between my thighs.
"Three o'clock. The hockey arena's equipment room," he commanded, staring down at me with aristocratic arrogance. "If you're a no-show, that security footage lands directly on campus security's desk."

The Unwritten Princess
My name is Mia, and everything I touch is dying.
The flowers beneath my mother's window turned black overnight. The herbs I gathered at dawn rotted in my hands. When the court wizard finally told me the truth—that someone cursed me, that my presence would kill everyone I love—I realized the prophecy everyone believed was never meant to save the kingdom. It was meant to destroy me.
So I ran. Not to fulfill some destiny, but to survive it.
Now I'm traveling with a hunter who lost his companions to the same curse I carry, chasing fragments of a prophecy the Fae sing differently. An elf took a baby from the palace the night I was born. And somewhere between the lies I've been told and the truth I'm hunting, I'm starting to suspect: What if I'm not the princess from the prophecy at all?
The Alpha's Stripper Mate
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."

Meanwhile, Alpha Lake Rush, thirty, was the most feared Alpha in the country. Burdened by his own share of life's struggles, he had learned only to be cruel and reckless, rejecting not one but two mates. But what happens when he discovers yet another mate, and she turns out to be his stripper?

Curtis, the boy I once loved, still holds a promise I made, but the Alpha’s powerful presence pulls me deeper into his world. Should I forgive Curtis and keep my word, or should I risk everything for a chance at something wild and unpredictable with the Alpha who won’t take no for an answer?
“There are no limits between us,” he chuckled, the mirth sparkling in his gorgeous eyes. “And all of this stems from the night you gave me both pain and pleasure. I’m simply returning the favor.”
He took two steps forward, and I stepped back. “But…” The memory of what I had done filled me with fear, and I knew I had to get out of there. “I…”
“No, Firecat.” He placed an index finger on my lips. “This will take your mind off that son of a bitch.” His strong hands pulled me by the waist until I felt his hard manhood.

The Vampire Prince's Hybrid Bride
Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."

Old wounds reopen, grief masquerades as rage, and love refuses to stay buried. As parenthood binds them together and the past demands accountability, Emily and Ryan must face the question neither of them is ready to answer: is broken trust the end of their story… or the beginning of a love forged through loss, forgiveness, and brutal honesty?
