THE ALPHA’S MISTAKEN BRIDE
beutifuliwinosa22 · Ongoing · 57.6k Words
Introduction
The air in the ceremonial hall froze. Max, the Alpha of the Moonshadow pack, stared at me with cold panic replacing his drunken lust. He had mistaken me for my wicked stepsister, Gwen, just because I was trying on her silk wedding dress. “It was a mistake,” he yelled, running his hands through his dark hair. “I hate you, Zaria. I would not even touch you when I’m sober!”
But the pack law is absolute. The ring was on my finger. The deed was done. I was now the wife of my high school bully.
Gwen looked ready to peel my skin off. “If he picks you,” she whispered, her eyes burning with hatred, “I will make sure you live a life filled with regrets.” I thought my life in my father’s house was hell, but being dragged to the Alpha’s palace was a different kind of nightmare.
“We are only using this one room,” Max declared coldly as he threw me into his massive bedroom. “It is the rule for the Alpha and his bride. We will be sharing this bed.” I took a nervous step back. One year. In this room. With the man who hates me, but whose eyes traverse my body like he wants to devour me.
“Enjoying your new jail, Luna?” he scoffed, closing the door and locking us in.
Chapter 1
CHAPTER ONE
ZARIA’S POV
The air in the ceremonial hall had changed, it was heavy, with a mixture of my fear as I stared at the wedding band on my fingers. I shifted backwards, hitting the ceremonial table with my eyes glued to my fingers, and sharp tears threatening to fall from my eye.
I looked at Max, the shock of Elder Finn’s words struck him too, he was no longer drunk, he stared at his hands, then the door, before his eyes met mine.
A cold panic had replaced his anger.
“No,” he whispered. His voice sounded choked. “This can’t be real. I was- I was drunk, it doesn’t mean anything”
He reached for my hands and I yanked my hands away, holding the wedding band tightly, even when it felt heavy.
“It means everything,” I hissed. My voice was shaking so much, I could barely remember it. “You heard him, we can’t go against the pack’s law”
I raise my hands to his sight,
“You put this on me, Max, You kissed me and called me your bride, you caused this”
I am not one to point fingers, but at this point, I had to.
“You are wearing my bride’s dress, what were you expecting,” He yelled, making a gesture at Gwen’s silk wedding dress that adorned my body.
I had sewn this dress, it was just fair that I would try it on before the mean bride who happens to be my wicked stepsister.
I looked down at the dress, the once silk, golden dress had become rags in my sight and I regretted wearing it.
“Tomorrow, all the royal carriages will go to your father’s house, Miss Zaria, and the wedding ritual will continue,” Elder Finn said and walked out of the hall.
Hearing the word ‘wedding’ brought a sharp discomfort to me, I don’t want to be a wife, while I am still in college, and definitely not to the man who is making my life hell in college.
“Were you trying to seduce me?” Max asked and I scoffed at his insensitivity.
“Seduce you? You came onto me first, and forcefully slipped the wedding band on me,” I yelled. “So tell me who is doing the seduction”
“It was a mistake” he yelled, running his hands through his dark curly hair. “A huge terrible mistake, I am betrothed to your stepsister Gwen, I hate you Zaria, I would not even touch you when I’m sober”
I already knew he hated me, but hearing it directly from the scumbag felt like a sharp sting, he doesn’t want this, neither do I but the deed had already been done.
“Well, you did touch me” I scoffed, rubbing the place on my wrist where he squeezed, it hurts though. “And now we are stuck, deal with it” I sneered at him.
I tore Gwen’s wedding dress off fast and it ripped a little.
“I’m going,” I told him, as I folded the dress in a fabric bag and placed the bag across my shoulders. “I need to think”
Max didn’t respond, nor did he try to stop me. With heavy legs, I ran out of the ceremonial hall.
It didn’t take long before I got home.
“Don’t tell me arranging the ceremonial hall for my wedding took this long,” Gwen sneered at me, stretching her legs on the couch, as some maids from the Alpha palace styled her hair against tomorrow.
“I am…”
“Shut the hell up and come massage my feet while the maids style my hair,” She said, cutting me shut.
Without a fight, I dropped the fabric bag to the ground and started massaging her feet.
Three years since my mother disappeared, two years since my father married Jenny and brought Gwen into my once peaceful life, and it only gets worse daily.
Gwen and Jenny had made my life a living hell, and I feel like a maid in my father’s house, and it may sound surprising but my father is clueless about what’s going on in his house.
My father, Mark, is like a Ghost in the house, he doesn't see anything wrong with how they are treating me, he just pats my back and says “You are doing well Zaria”
He never sees the ache in my eyes, how Jenny watches me clean like I'm some mess and…
“ZARIA ADAM”
Gwen yells my name, and it's like a sharp nail dragging across woods, disrupting me from my thoughts.
“FOCUS” She yelled before I could respond to my name.
I quickly poured some oil in my palm and rubbed my palms against each other before massaging her feet, ignoring the ache in my back.
“What took you so long at the ceremonial hall, I hope you didn’t cause any disaster,” Jenny scoffed, from the corner of the living room.
Her eyes were on my dress, and the look she gave me made me feel dirty.
I pressed my lips together, as I tried to ignore the feeling of being dirty.
Gwen doesn't sit up, “I hope you took the wedding dress to the tailor, the expensive one, and I swear, if you put a damn wrinkle in it, I will tell the Alpha I saw you trying it on” She smiled.
I gulped hard, knowing that I had already tried it on, and the Alpha is not only the boy I hate in school, but also my husband because we just got married.
“Yes, I took it to the tailor and there is no wrinkle on it,” I whispered, as I got a flash back of how Max slipped the wedding band in my fingers.
How do I tell them that tomorrow, they are going to complete the wedding ritual for Max and me, and not her?
“If the Alpha were to pick a different bride, what would you do?” I asked, and everywhere fell silent.
“I am sorry, you don’t have to answer that,” I apologized.
“No, I will answer your question,” Gwen said, with a smile at the corners of her lips. “I will peel her skin off, so that her beauty can fade”
My face turned pale instantly, Gwen doesn’t just make threats, she acts on them.
“And if he picks you, and not me,” she said, turning to face me, giving me all her attention. “I will not just peel your skin off, I will make sure you live a life filled with regrets and pain”
“What the hell have I done?” I asked myself as I trembled in fear.

As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.
Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.
The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife
Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.
CHASING GHOSTS

Matthew's only shot at freedom is helping the police bring down Mr. K, the elusive mafia boss of the city.

In a world of betrayal, trust is a luxury, and falling for each other may be the deadliest mistake of all. Can they survive the deadly mafia games or will their passion be their demise?
After Divorce，I Became His Only Love
Then, on their wedding anniversary, she walked into his private club and heard him whisper to another woman: "Take care of our baby."
The woman was his brother's wife.
Everything—the gentleness, the restraint, the so-called love—had been an elaborate performance. And when Serena demanded a divorce, Leo didn't beg. He didn't apologize. He smiled and said: "Your grandmother wouldn't want that."
Now Serena must fight her way out of a marriage designed to cage her, a family that wants her silent, and a past that still has teeth. But the man who appears from the shadows to help her… is the same one who abandoned her years ago.
And he has secrets of his own.
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
Fated to the Enemy: The Alpha's Witch Bride

I walk straight to the blood-soaked beast, press my body against his, and tame him with a single, desperate embrace.

Until tonight.
He sneaks into the woods for me. We share a deep, hungry kiss under the moonlight.
But as I pull back, my blood runs cold.
Right there, on the neck of the man I just risked my soul to save...

Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.

Tango 2 the Alpha's Heart
My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody.
I found myself molded to Lex's will, my feet irresistibly following the dance steps.
The crowd gasped as Lex pulled me into a more intimate position, his hands roaming over my body in a seductive manner.
The experience was both terrifying and magical, allowing me to feel every longing emotion through the dance.
I soon found myself lost in his arms.
When the music finally stopped, my arms were wrapped around his neck, his hands resting on my back, our noses almost touching. He gazed deeply into my eyes.
The ballroom fell silent.
Was he about to kiss me?
