Introduction
But when students start disappearing and Zara begins having impossible dreams of flying through space and devouring entire packs, she realizes her biggest weakness might be her greatest weapon.
Kai Storm has one mission: earn the werewolves' trust, then lead them to slaughter. But falling for the academy's "broken" omega wasn't part of the plan. As his alien programming fights his growing humanity, Kai must choose between his creators and the girl who's about to become the most powerful being in the universe.
When Zara discovers that Earth's werewolves are being bred as soldiers for an alien empire, and that everyone she trusts has been lying to her, she'll have to embrace the monster inside her to save not just her world, but reality itself.
Some secrets are worth killing for. Others are worth dying for. But some secrets can end everything.
Chapter 1
Zara's POV
The mop bucket clattered against the marble floor as Zara Night pushed it down the empty hallway of Shadowmere Academy.
At three in the morning, the elite werewolf school was finally quiet.
No more laughter echoing from the common rooms.
No more whispers about "the broken omega" who couldn't shift.
Zara squeezed the dirty water from her mop and sighed.
While other nineteen-year-olds were sleeping in comfortable dorm rooms, she was cleaning up their mess.
Again.
"This is pathetic," she muttered to herself, pushing a strand of black hair from her sweaty forehead.
"Even the other omegas can shift. What's wrong with me?"
She'd been asking herself that question for five years.
Five years since her parents dropped her off at Shadowmere Academy's gates and never looked back.
The academy claimed to prepare the strongest werewolves for leadership roles in modern society, but Zara knew the truth.
She was here because her pack didn't want her.
A broken omega who couldn't shift was worse than useless.
She was an embarrassment.
Zara pushed her bucket toward the computer lab, where tomorrow's elite students would learn advanced tactics for something called "The Final Hunt."
She'd heard whispers about it - some kind of important mission that only the strongest werewolves could handle.
Not that anyone would ever explain it to her.
The computer lab door was already open.
Strange.
Professor Hayes always locked it after classes.
Zara flicked on the lights and gasped.
Every computer in the room was destroyed.
Screens cracked, keyboards smashed, cables ripped from the walls.
It looked like someone had taken a baseball bat to everything.
"Great," she groaned.
"They'll probably blame me for this."
She started sweeping up the broken glass, careful not to cut herself.
As she worked, something caught her eye.
One computer in the back corner looked different.
The screen was dark, but it wasn't cracked like the others.
In fact, it looked completely untouched.
Zara walked over to investigate.
The computer looked normal enough, but when she got closer, she noticed something odd.
The screen had a faint crack running down the middle, but it was perfectly straight.
Too perfect.
Like someone had drawn a line with a ruler.
"What the hell?" she whispered, reaching out to touch the crack.
The moment her finger made contact with the screen, everything changed.
The computer hummed to life, its screen blazing with brilliant blue light.
But instead of the normal login screen, symbols appeared.
Strange, flowing symbols that looked nothing like any language Zara had ever seen.
Yet somehow, impossibly, she understood them.
HARVEST PROTOCOL ACTIVATED
SUBJECT IDENTIFICATION: INCOMPLETE
SCANNING...
Zara jerked her hand back, but the screen kept glowing.
More symbols appeared, scrolling faster now.
GENETIC MARKERS: ANOMALOUS
POWER CLASSIFICATION: UNKNOWN
RECOMMENDATION: IMMEDIATE EXTRACTION
"What is this?" Zara breathed, her heart pounding.
The symbols made no sense, but she understood every word.
How was that possible?
A new message flashed on the screen:
WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS DETECTED
INITIATING SECURITY PROTOCOLS
The screen went black.
Then, slowly, the crack down the middle began to glow with the same blue light.
Zara realized it wasn't a crack at all.
It was some kind of scanner.
Before she could move, footsteps echoed in the hallway.
Someone was coming.
Zara grabbed her mop and bucket and rushed toward the door, her mind racing.
What had she just seen?
What did those symbols mean?
And why could she understand them when she'd never seen anything like them before?
The footsteps got closer.
Zara quickly turned off the lights and slipped out of the computer lab, pulling the door shut behind her.
She hurried down the hallway, trying to look like she was just doing her job.
But she couldn't shake the feeling that everything had just changed.
The symbols on that screen weren't from any human technology she knew.
They looked... alien.
And they'd been scanning her.
As Zara pushed her bucket toward the basement stairs, she didn't notice the security camera in the corner following her movement.
Its red light pulsed once, twice, then began transmitting data to coordinates far beyond Earth's atmosphere.
The hunt was about to begin.

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.

Accardi
“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.

In Bed With My Ex's Brother-in-Law
On the day her ex, Mark, married the wealthy socialite Bella, Elena was thrown out with nothing but the clothes on her back—humiliated, broken, and utterly alone.
Until Eric Thompson appeared.
Bella’s older brother. Mark’s powerful brother-in-law. And the most feared Alpha in the city.
He offered her a hand when no one else would. Then, he offered her a deal:
A marriage in name only. A shield against her past. A chance to rebuild.
Elena accepted, expecting a cold arrangement between strangers. But behind closed doors, Eric’s carefully guarded control unraveled—and so did hers. Their chemistry was explosive, their nights intense, and the lines between business and pleasure blurred beyond recognition.
He was the one man she could never have… and the only one she couldn’t resist.
But when Mark realizes what he truly lost, and Bella discovers the secret behind her brother’s bride, Elena must decide:
Is this just a contract?
Or is this the love she was always meant to fight for?
Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."
