Introduction
Stunned, I move to follow her, suddenly nervous.
"No need to worry, the Masters have been waiting for your arrival since the call" is all I hear as I move to enter the mansion, only to be greeted by three handsome men, my throat now dry.
"Welcome home Princess" says one of the voices.
"It's been a while il mio tesoro (My Treasure)" says another.
"Come, let us welcome you home, Agapi (Love)" comes the last voice, all three of my step brothers now standing before me. Shit, did things just get hotter or is it me?

Ella
“Ella Knight, please report to the Principal's office. I repeat, Ella Knight please report to the Principal’s office” comes a loud voice over the intercom speakers. Blinking, I move to lift my gaze from my desk. It’s finals for us High Schoolers and I was just finishing my exam when the voice called out to me, drawing unwanted attention to me.
Sighing, I move to stand, ignoring the voices as they begin to whisper. Unphased as I became used to it. The last 4 years of my High school career had been nothing but drama as people tried to pretend to like me as I was the daughter to Alex Knight, CEO and Billionaire to the world's greatest diamond mind.
Our diamonds were one of the finest and only top jewelers actually used them. Granted my Stepfather, yes Stepfather as my Mother had married him when I was only 8 years old and he with his three 18 year old boys became one big happy family. Anywho, as I was saying, People only wanted to be friends with me because they knew who I was, not because they actually wanted to. Well, except maybe Kris, she was truly genuine from the start.
Once packed, I move to hand in my final exam, having finished the test before everyone else as I move to exit the classroom, eyes still resting on my retreating form as I make my way towards the Principal’s office unsure why I was being called there. A sudden sense of dread creeping in as I could speculate behind the reasons.
Stop that, I scolded myself, shaking my head to rid of all the unwanted thoughts that were forming.
Approaching the office, I slowly move to knock on the door. “Yes? Enter” calls the voice of the Principal, Principal Matthews sitting patiently at his desk as I entered the room slowly.
“Ah Ella, sorry to pull you from exams but it’s rather important I’m afraid” says Principal Matthews as he gestures for me to sit down. His pale blue eyes and Ash blonde hair framing his strong chiseled face nicely. Sitting at 6’0, Principal Matthews was tall, at least taller than me, in which I stood a mere 5’8 in height.
Taking the offered seat, I move to sit graciously down in front of him. “Important? What’s so important sir?” I ask, my deep navy blue eyes watching him as I move to tuck a loose strand of long platinum blonde hair behind my ear as I sat, wearing the Valley View School uniform. A Private High School for the rich and super rich.
“I’m afraid it involves your parents” says Principal Matthews, my attention now focused on him solely. My parents? What happened to my parents? Race my uneasy thoughts as I try to figure out what could have happened to them as I had only seen them this morning as we spoke about plans for my upcoming 18th Birthday and when I would graduate.
When he notices my silence, does he move to continue speaking. “The Police called, there’s been… an accident” replies Principal Matthews, unsure how to explain it as my face pales. My once milky white skin now pale, sitting borderline ghost.
“A-Accident” I choke, finally finding my voice to speak, my mind racing a mile a minute.
“Yes,” sighing he moves to fold his hands on top of his desk, his eyes gazing at me softly. “Your parents, your parents are dead Ella. I’m sorry, there’s no easier way to say it.”
“D-Dead? Are you sure?” I say, trying not to cry. They couldn't be dead. I just saw them at Breakfast. How was this possible? With my thoughts spiraling out of control I try to figure out the motive behind their deaths. Was it money? A robbery gone wrong? My Fathers company? What was it?
“Unfortunately, I am. The Police found them both murdered at home. Both brutally shot. Neither survived. My sincere apologies” remarks Principal Matthews, as I finally cry, my emotions running wild as I take it all in.
“A Police officer will be here momentarily to come and collect you. He’ll take you home to help you with any necessary things before taking you elsewhere”
“Elsewhere? I have nowhere else. Why can’t I just stay where I am? After all, I’m almost 18, I can fend for myself” I say, now angry I couldn’t live at home.
“I’m sorry, but your home is currently under investigation and with you the sole survivor to your Father’s company I think it would be wise not to stay there until everything’s been handled” explains Principal Matthews, hoping I would see the logic behind his words.
“B-But…. Where will I stay? What about school? What about my Graduation?” I exclaim, now worried I wouldn’t be able to finish or graduate with my class.
“Easy… You’ll still be allowed to finish your last couple of exams as well as graduate. Your new Guardians will see to that” smiles Principal Matthews.
Confused, I blink. Guardians? What Guardians? I didn’t have anyone. Mom and Dad would have told me if they appointed me one, I wonder, my mind now curious as to who they could be.
“Guardians, Sir?” I ask softly.
“Yes, I believe you know them as Reece, Dylan and Caleb. Your Step Brothers if you will” smiles Principal Matthews making me pause, my mouth opening and closing like a fish at the mention of my Step Brothers.
At the mention of my Step Brothers, I suddenly feel my heart flutter within my chest. I hadn’t seen them since I was 16 years old. And even then they completely ignored me. It was also our last Christmas together too. But when they did talk to me it was when Father had said something to them, otherwise they didn’t. So why did they suddenly care now? Was all I could think of as my mind and heart clashed, each in a battle over the other.
Fiddlesticks, so much for being independent now, are my only thoughts as I try to remember those three 26 year old boys. The ones I used to admire from afar yet hoped would secretly accept me without hesitation.

Most of all, I didn’t know the supernatural walked among us, hiding in the cracks of ordinary life. Not until Abel Stone stepped into mine—dark-eyed, sharp-tongued, and oozing dangerous promises.

From Substitute To Queen

Even worse was overhearing Darrell laugh to his friends: "She's useful—obedient, doesn't cause trouble, handles housework, and I can fuck her whenever I need relief. She's basically a live-in maid with benefits." He made crude thrusting gestures, sending his friends into laughter.

“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 CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.

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.
From Sacrificed Slave to the Dragon King's Obsession
His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.
"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.
"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."
I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.
"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."
On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.
Augustus Ashenwing, Supreme Sovereign of Skyhold Citadel, is ruthless and feared by all races. His obsession stems from ancient grudges and dragonkind's most dangerous instinct: possessive desire. He demands her submission, binding her to his throne as his consort.
From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.
Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.
Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.

She calls him Cain, but the shattered-moon tattoo on his back brands him as Kaelen, the long-dead Alpha of the powerful Sky-Fall pack. His return triggers a brutal civil war with the usurper who stole his throne and his fated mate. Hunted by Lycan assassins and a fanatical human commander desperate for the secrets locked in Lena's own past, their only hope lies in embracing the very power Kaelen can't remember and Lena has always feared.
As they uncover a conspiracy that threatens not just the pack, but the future of every living thing, Kaelen must fight for a kingdom he doesn't know and Lena must confront a legacy she tried to bury. In a world of broken thrones and fated bonds, they will discover that the greatest choice is not between love and duty, but between who you are told you must be, and who you choose to become.
