Mina's birthday
“I'm gonna be late for Mina's birthday party". Damien laughed. “What's with that serious face, Alex? They haven't started now". Damien explained, “I still want to go there early". Alex complained. “You like Mina, don't you ?". Damien asked his son. Alex nodded and smiled. “Oh hell no Damien". Ayla said from behind them. “You can't be teaching my son those nasty things,he is too young for that". Ayla said, “Our son". Damien corrected. “No need to be serious babe, I was just kidding". Damien explained.
Mina is the daughter of Nina and Nick. She had a striking resemblance to Nina but took Nick's green eyes. Ayla bent lower to her son. “Alex, what do you plan to give Mina on her second birthday". Ayla asked. “A box of strawberry candy,her favourite". Alexis said. “That's so nice of you Alex, Mina will be so happy". Ayla explained.
When Mina saw Alex at her birthday party she was so happy that she ran off to meet him. “Nina, take care, don't run.
You will fall. I don't want you to get hurt on your birthday",Nina said worriedly. But naughty little Mina just giggled and ran off to hug Alex. “Wu med it". Mina said in her childish voice. Alex laughed and ruffled her hair. Mina frowned because she didn't like her hair being tempered with. “What's with that face,Mina", little Alex asked. “I don't want wu tu pway wit it, Wu will spel it". Nina replied. “It's spoiled Mina, but nevermind, how is my darling goddaughter doing today”. Luna Ayla asked. “I'm fwine Aunty Ayla".
“Let's leave silly Alex,we have a birthday to celebrate, don't we". Luna Ayla asked. Mina jumped up and down but followed Ayla inside their house. “Huraay Daddy it is time to open the presents, hurry". Mina dragged her father all the way to the presents section. Nina shot her husband an apologetic glance, Nick just shrugged and allowed himself to be dragged by his daughter. “Daddy, which one should I open first". Mina asked, seeming lost in her thoughts. “Open mine first". Alex stepped out from the corner where he'd been observing what was going on. “But why yours?”,Mina asked, pouting. “Fine, you can do whatever you want. Alex stepped aside frowning.
Ayla was slightly taken aback by her son's attitude but she just shot him a warning glance not to spoil the mood with his bossy attitude. Alex just smirked at his mom. “I will open yours first, don't worry". Mina rushed to comfort Alex. She didn't like making her friends sad. “Wow, a box of candy." Mina giggled while seeing the contents on the box. “Do you want one of Alex's?I can share it with you". Mina asked. “ No, I bought it only for you". Alex replied. Mina hugged him and the party continued with other members of the pack showering presents upon the Beta's daughter.
A few years later
“Hey, that's not funny". Mina spoke wrongly while Alex laughed at accomplishing his mission by pouring mud on her. Mina is now 10 years old with Alex being a slight year older than her. Alex has a younger sister, Amya, who is 8 years now and close friends with Mina despite the gap in their age. “Don't mind him Mina, he's always like that". Amya reasoned. “That's not fair, I will definitely get revenge". Mina laughed. “That's exactly what I'm talking about”. Amya joined in plotting against her elder brother. Alex was the best brother she could ever have, but he can be a jerk sometimes and this was going to be fun. Wait till she tells mummy about everything. She giggled. Noah the gamma's son, who is a year older than Alex, was his best buddy, but unlike Alex,Noah was the shy and nerdy type. He was just sitting there observing what his friends were doing. He wouldn't have come if not for Alex pestering him to follow him here. “What's so funny about what you just did". Noah said, looking up at a laughing Alex holding his belly. “Did you see Mina's face when I poured the mud on her, she looked so horrified". Alex laughed again, clutching his belly. “That's not funny, you know how Mina doesn't joke with her hair, you just messed it up". Noah reasoned. “Why are you taking it seriously?". Alex asked, trying to control his series of laughter. “I'm going home,see you in class tomorrow". Noah replied, standing up and heading towards the pack house. “Hey, wait for me". Alex ran after him.
“Let's get you out of the mud,shall we". Amya said while offering a helping hand to her. “Thanks bestie". Mina replied.

Offside Temptation
Ethan Ryder was a disaster waiting to happen. Hot-headed, reckless, and constantly one bad decision away from ruining his career. I was supposed to hate him. Instead, I memorized him. I learned exactly how to push his buttons on the ice just to see the fire in his eyes.
When he grabbed my jersey in that locker room and kissed me in front of twenty cameras, it wasn't a mistake. It was the moment the line between hatred and obsession finally snapped. The media called it a scandal. They called us a divorced couple. But they didn't see the way Ethan trembled when I cornered him in the hallway afterward.
"You're staring again," he whispered, his back hitting the wall.
"You're still here," I replied calmly, stepping close enough to feel his erratic pulse.
He thought I was cold. He thought I was controlled. He didn't realize that every time he looked at me, I was fighting the urge to completely destroy the distance between us.
Now, the league is forcing us to live together, train together, and smile for the cameras to fix our public image. But the more time we spend alone in my apartment, the harder it is to pretend I just want to play hockey...

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.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
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.
The Alpha Of The Shadow Pack And His Mute Luna
Vanessa, the mute runt of a cursed litter, has only ever known cruelty and abuse. Her voice stolen by a witch’s spell, her freedom crushed by a brutal father, she’s been promised to a monster she doesn’t want. But fate intervenes when she’s left for dead—bleeding, broken, and bound—only to be rescued by Alpha Alfred of the Shadow Pack.
Alfred, fighting against a generational curse that has doomed his brothers to remain wolves forever, never expected his fated mate to be a fragile girl on the brink of death. But the moment he breathes in her scent, everything changes.
Together, they must confront the past, survive betrayal, and uncover the true key to breaking the curses that bind them. Will their bond be strong enough to save them both?
Dangerous Love with the Mafia
Driven out by her adoptive mother and sexually harassed by her boss, she stumbles into a seedy bar, desperate to drown her sorrows. There she meets Alex: sharp, devastatingly handsome, and impossibly charming.
What starts as a wild one-night stand blossoms into a tender, almost surreal romance—art galleries, riverside walks, and whispered promises that feel too perfect to be real. But when Alex vanishes without a word after a morning of gentle intimacy, Sarah is left with a hollow ache and a creeping doubt.
Their encounter was no accident. Behind Alex's blue eyes and skilled touch lies a darkness far deeper than she ever imagined—and the love that burned so bright may come with a price that could destroy her.
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?
One Weekend with the Billionaire
I open my mouth to respond, but all that comes out is a staggered breath and a small sigh. He chuckles, a low, rough rumble and then leans down and kisses the middle of my back.
I feel the tip of him again at my entryway. He pushes in slightly, and my body comes to life again. My muscles react to his presence, contracting and loosening, as if my body is trying to suck him deep inside.
He's my husband's boss, so this is supposed to be wrong.
So why does it feel so right?
Braxton Merriweather always gets what he wants. Now, he wants her--Julia Thompson, the wife of one of his workers. From the moment he first laid eyes on her, he knew he had to possess her in every way.
When Jeff Thompson takes him up on the bargain he proposes, Braxton is shocked. He's even more surprised when Mrs. Thompson agrees.
But now that he's had a taste of her, he wants more. How can he possess a woman who's already married to someone else?

And if so... what does she do about her husband?
One Weekend with the Billionaire is a sexy story for mature readers.
