Chapter 1
CJ
Is the week of my 18th birthday. I am super excited, due to my spirit animal awakes from his slumber. Is the start of my manhood. Also, the huge party my parents are throwing for me. We are not rich but my father, BETA Angel Skylar, BETA to the Alpha, comes with some perks here in Stone Valley Pack in Florida. Yes, we are wolves.
Today is 3 days before my birthday on Saturday. I had just been woken up by my older brother Alex who jumps on me as he says “Yo, bro let’s go.” I grunt and jump up. “Why must you do that!” “Because is fun and you’re late getting up.” He laughs as he walks out of my room. He is 20 years old. He trains the advance warriors. He is impressive but annoying.
I get up and get ready for school. I put on my jeans with a tank top and my football jersey over it. I chose not to brush my curly hair and put on my favorite green hat, along with my green sneakers. I grabbed my duffle bag and headed to the kitchen where my whole family was already.
Walking in the kitchen is the best smell ever. My mom, BETA Sheera Skylar, BETA to the Luna, is the best cook. There is no one that has tried her cooking that has not fallen in love with it. This morning she made French toast, bacon, and scramble eggs. I served myself a plate and went in on my plate. “Slow down mijo. Is not going to disappear” my mom tells me. Yes, I’m Hispanic on my mom side. She came from a pack called Bora Red Pack in Puerto Rico.
After I finished breakfast, I grabbed my stuff and took off with Alex to school. He gives me rides since the training grounds are 2 minutes from the school. I arrived and head straight to my locker where my friends, Jace, AJ, and Mike are at. We’ve all been best friends since birth. All our families work in the Pack House. Jace is the son of Gamma Rick Pawster, AJ is the son of Yazmin Longsteed, Maiden to the Luna, and Mike is son of Turner and Mila Rockstead, Captain Warriors.
“What up, bro?” AJ greets me. “Sup guys? Are you guys ready for Saturday? Because I can’t wait.” I say enthusiastic. They all respond at once “You know it!!” We all headed to class after a bit of chatting. Lunch time comes around and I meet the guys at our usual table. I got there first and settled myself. I looked to the side to see if the guys were coming, when I spot this beautiful ginger head. Her hair was so orange. Almost like fire and she had a set of green eyes. As I was admiring her the guys arrived at the table and snapped me out of my trance. When I looked back again, she was gone. I decided to just go with my day. After school we had practice. After practice we hopped in Jace’s truck and headed to the mall for some grub and to pick new outfits for the party. After we all finished, we headed to my house. Guys love coming over because of my mom’s cooking.
When we entered the house, my mom had already left the table ready for us to eat. It became a routine of ours after practice. Tonight’s dinner is rice, beans, and Pernil. My mom always cooks our favorite foods during the week of our birthdays. We dug in until we couldn’t eat any more. After we finished the guys headed home and I went to take a shower.
Once I was alone in my room, I started thinking about the ginger girl. I don’t know why I started thinking about her. I put a movie on and went to sleep. The next day I got up on time and chose to brush my hair and let my curls hang. I decided to wear black jeans, a green graphic t-shirt, and my timberlands. Jace picked me up today with the guys and we headed to school.
I noticed while walking around that I was looking for her. I don’t understand why I am feeling this way. I shake my head and continue to talk with the guys. When lunch came around, I hoped to see her again. When I arrive at the table, Stacy is sitting there. Stacy is a petit blonde girl that has been trying to get with one of us but has failed miserably. I rolled my eyes when she said “Hi CJ” while waving her fingers.
I waved and sat opposite Stacy. She batts her eyelashes at me, while trying to act cute. I just eat my food and ignore her. I went to take another bite of my pizza when I spotted her again. Ginger girl. I keep calling her ginger girl, but I have no idea who she is. I’ve never seen her before. At that moment, the guys arrive and break me out of my thoughts.
Again, when I look back, she is gone. I never get a full look at her or her face. All I know is her eyes and her hair. When I get back to what’s happening in front of me, Stacy is still there trying to get attention. I decided to finish my food and go for a walk. I decided to walk towards the football field when I spotted her lying in the middle of the field. I approached her slowly trying to think of what to say to her.
As I approached, she sat up and looked my way. I stopped and slightly waved at her. She lifted an eyebrow as she locked her eyes with mine.

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.
Mated To My Nemesis
Agnes Tremaine arrived in Melbourne with a camera but no backstory in this world. She was meant to document one season. She never realized she was already the blueprint — that the connections, the open doors, and the meticulous arrangements were all built specifically for her, tailored and designed to use her.
Ace had a nine-year revenge in the making. A journalist had destroyed his sister's life and left no fingerprints. Now the man's daughter was standing in his garage with a camera, and Ace had been the one to open the door.
His wolf chooses a mate he never wanted and couldn't shake — not in the paddock, not on the track, not even at 200mph where nothing else had ever followed him before.
For the first time in his life, he couldn't have it all.
Luna On The Run- I stole The Alpha's Sons

But Axton does not take rejection lightly, and his retaliation is brutal: a leaked video, a ruined reputation, and a family that turns their backs on her drive her to flee the city in disgrace.
But when Elena disappears, she takes something Alpha Axton never planned to lose - his sons. Now, he'll stop at nothing to get them back. He wants his heirs, he wants his mate, and Elena will learn that no one runs from the Alpha.
Where The Ice Gives Way

She doesn’t know why her chest keeps pulling toward the one boy she absolutely cannot afford to want. Blake is Charlie’s new hockey captain. Charlie’s chance at making something good. Charlie makes it clear; his sister is off-limits and Blake tries to do the right thing, but secrets don’t stay buried forever. Rogues prowl the edges of town. The ice cracks. The bond tightens. Then Charlotte’s rare white wolf awakens, the very thing that makes her powerful, also makes her a target.
Shanti needs Shakti. (Peace needs strength.)
Where the Ice Gives Way is a slow-burn YA paranormal romance filled with fated mates, protective alpha energy, fierce sibling loyalty, found family pack bonds, hurt/comfort, and quiet, aching tension. It’s a story about first belonging, learning to be cared for, and what happens when the girl who has always held everyone else up finally falls, and someone catches her.
My Billionaire Husband's Secret
He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.
He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.
But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.
Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.
Then a message arrived from someone called Sweet An.
Do you really know your husband?
From that day on, my life filled with shadows.
I suspected my husband of having an affair.
When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.
I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.
My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."
The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"
I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.
But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.
Does Lucas truly love me?
And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?
