Introduction
"Thank you. Is it time?" I don't miss the sudden dullness in his eyes, the slight slump of his shoulders. He seems disappointed, but that can't be.
He nods and holds his arm out for me. I take it and allow him to lead me out. The closer we get to the ceremony, the more my nerves start to affect me. I'm nervous as shit, and if it weren't for the hold my father has on me, I think I'd become a puddle of human goo.
We stop in front of double doors, and I can barely breathe. Just beyond those doors is the carpeted aisle that will lead me to my future. It will lead me to a man I've never met and a future that's uncertain. I don't know if I'm ready for the unknown, but I can't turn back now. I have to do this for the health of my mother. I take a deep breath as the doors open, and I'm staring at a sea of people. I swear I don't know anyone here. I let the breath out, and the scent of freshly cut grass hits me out of nowhere. Holy shit, I think my mate's in there.
I'm his best man, not that it means much. Nathaniel stands next to me, facing the double doors. "I'm sorry for earlier. You're right, as always." I shake my head and place a hand on his shoulder.
"It's nothing. We are in a difficult situation, but we have to make the best of it." He nods. "So have you met her?" Nathaniel shakes his head.
-I'm anxious.-
-I am, too, Bruno. We just need to get through this ceremony.- Bruno shakes his head and retreats to the back of my mind. Nathaniel sighs and stands up straight.
"Let's do this." I nod, and we wait for the ceremony to take off.
It doesn't take long for the music to pick up in volume. The double door opens, and my breath leaves my body. Bruno is wreaking havoc in my mind, and it's getting hard for me to stay on my feet. I'd lost hope for this day, and I never thought it would happen like this. -MATE!

Chapter 1
~Sophia~
I watch people move around with a sense of peace. I always love watching humans go about their days. I try to imagine what their lives are like and what their biggest worries might be. Clearly, I'm not human. I've… we've been living among them for a while now, but we have no illusions about who we are.
My mom, Laura and I are werewolves from the Riverfall Pack. Mom didn't want to deal with pack life again, so we settled in this human town. I haven't been back since we left. I'm not even sure if I'd be welcomed back after everything.
Flashback
"OK, Jessica! I'll see you later." I watch her body get smaller before turning and entering my home. The moment I stepped through the door, I could feel the tension. I turn to the left and notice suitcases, one of which was mine.
I take a few steps forward and am looking for someone to explain. Usually, the place is busy with Omegas everywhere doing their daily duties. Right now, there's no one bringing a chill to the room. "Mom? Dad?" There's no response, and I don't know why. It feels like something's wrong, but I don't know what.
I continue through the house, looking for anyone to explain. I move upstairs, taking my time on each step. I reach the top floor and can immediately hear two voices. I close my eyes and concentrate. I know those voices. I open my eyes and run down the hall. Dad has a home office, and that's where the voices are coming from.
I reach the door and don't hesitate to push it open. I wish I had taken a minute before entering the room. It's the one thing my father always told me to do, yet I didn't listen today. "When will she be gone, baby?" That voice, it isn't my mom's voice.
"Soon, my love. As soon as Soph gets home, they will go. We've already ended the marriage and rejected each other. I'm all yours." I step back in shock, right into a table. The vase sitting on the table is knocked to the ground. The crash brings eyes on me, causing even more anxiety to roll off me.
This can't be real; it has to be a joke. Who is this woman? Where is my mom? "Soph?"
"Sophia, love?" I look between my father and mom, who's now standing in the doorway. Her eyes are red, and her face is puffy. I know she's been crying, though she tries to hide it. My father reaches for me, and I take a step forward. I stop short as soon as I see the woman in his arms sneer at me. I turn and run to my mother, allowing her to wrap her arms around me. "You couldn't wait until we left, Richard?"
"Watch how you speak to my mate. You have your child, so leave." Father pulls her in closer, shushing her and rubbing her back.
"It's okay, Soph. Go with your mother and I will see you soon." He directs his gaze to my mom. "If you two need anything, let me know. I… I did-"
"Save it, Richard! I don't want anything from you, ever. Let's go, Sophia, love." Mom turns us around, and we walk out of the door.
End of Flashback
I haven't set foot in that home or on those lands since. Dad has visited me here and there but never visits with Mom. She refuses to even speak his name. When watching the humans, I often wonder if they've been through the same things. I wonder if they've ever been crushed like I have.
A knock on the door breaks me out of my thoughts. A man in a suit walks into the room. "Ms.Sophia?" I nod, wondering what this is about. "Can I have a moment of your time?" I nod and stand to my feet. I walk toward him after placing a kiss on Mom's forehead.
We walk outside of the room, and I watch him close the door behind him. "I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but your mother is going to be released." I suck in a breath, trying to ignore the pain in my chest.
"But, you can't do that. My mom is sick and she needs the treatment. I… I know that I need to pay, but there has to be something that can be done." He sighs and shakes his head.
"We already gave you a grace period, yet you still haven't paid. There is no more time. In two day, we will be releasing you mom without treatment." He places a hand on my shoulder. "I'm really sorry." I watch him walk away with my heart in my throat. What am I going to do?
The treatment for my mom is a long process, and it's expensive. I've been trying to work to get the money, but I haven't even made a dent. I thought I had time; we thought we had time. Her illness took a turn for the worse, which is how she ended up in the hospital. Now that she's here, her treatment is imperative.
I begin to pace the hallway back and forth, trying to come up with a solution. There has to be a way to keep her in the hospital and pay for her treatment. I don't have enough money, but there has to be a way to get what I need.
As I continue to pace, the air gets thick around me. I'm having trouble taking a deep breath, and it feels like the walls are closing in around me. I'm trying not to panic, but this is a life and death situation. There's nowhere else for this treatment. I checked.
I look up and find myself in the lobby. I don't even remember coming out this way. I slump into a seat and lean forward with my head in my hands. This is too much, too much to deal with alone. I sit up and lean back in my seat, looking at the blue tiles on the ceiling.
Suddenly, an idea came to me: a way to get what I need for Mom. I pull out my phone and scroll through my contacts. The name is highlighted on my screen, and my finger hovers over it. I close my eyes and hit the button, slowly putting the phone to my ear. "Hello, Soph?"
"Hey, Dad. Can we talk?"

“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

Chosen.

But then he meets Derek again, and all of his plans vanish in the soft, yearning flecks of gold in Derek’s green-hazel eyes. He’s drawn to Derek in a way that’s impossible to deny, and he thinks Derek feels the same way, despite the danger their relationship holds for him.
As Moonshadow's politics turn deadly, Derek and Nikolai are caught in the crossfire of a war that had started long before they were born, and their bond becomes a threat and a lifeline that neither can afford to sever.
Because the heart wants what it wants….
And it never asks permission.

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."

COLD (Ruthless Player)
“Please… Nick, wait.” He pulled out, thrusted back in. “How much? Twenty thousand? Fifty? Hundred?” With every question, he thrust harder and harder. My neurons are frying with the confusing feeling in my brain. Torn between pleasure, fear, and panic. I couldn't utter a single sentence to save my life.
His cold eyes pinned me in place while he plundered my body with deep thrusts, which only added to my confusion. My dumb body mistook the mixed signals, my pussy becoming even wetter than before.
“I hope she'd paid you well, because I'm going to fuck you all night long, hard,” he growled. “Sleep, then do it all over again. I want to feel you come for me, Andrea, want to feel you squeeze my cock, milking me.
Begging for me to give you the high only I can, I'm going to fucked you until I fuck all my wife's money's worth, I want you to remember how hard I took you while you're meeting her.” I sobbed, moaned, and tried to scramble out under him.
“No, please…Nick, let….let me explain.” Nick abruptly pulled out. His eyes were cold but hooded.
Andrea was sent to take down billionaire magnate Nicklaus Montgomery.

The Contract Wife: Marriage Of Malice
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.
Ella never imagined she would marry the man she had secretly loved for years in such a way.
