Introduction
[Warning: R18+] What will happen when a complete stranger got all of your firsts? First touch, first kiss, first hug, and-first sex?! Astraea Lumiere Laxamana is an innocent, full of decency, and kind woman. She's a breadwinner of her family and will do everything she can just to provide for their needs; her brother's financial education and her mother's medication. Everything was going well with her life until the one-week free vacation trip to an island happened. A complete stranger knocked on her heart and stole everything from her. A runaway stranger who made her feel special when they met, but escape from her after sharing a one steamy night.
"I am just a one-time experience. Nothing more, nothing less," she thought.
Going back to Manila, she has decided to just forget everything about him but a new boss has arrived.
"Sure, you can go home as long as you want, but I will make sure you'll come back to me while begging to be enslaved by my arms."

Chapter 1
"Another business trip?" Seb greeted me when I entered the coffee shop where I was staying before.
Not anymore because I've been too busy... and too much has happened.
I felt my mood calm down when I smelled coffee. I sat down on the counter chair and lowered myself.
“I don't want to go anymore. If only I could.”
“Then, don’t go. It's still up to you, Astraea. You don't need that anymore because you are really good in that profession,” he told me seriously then handed me the cup of coffee.
I sniffed it quietly before drinking it slowly. It's been a long time since I tasted his coffee. I'm not used to other coffees because my love for coffee came to life when I tasted their product here. Sebastian is really a good barista. This shop belongs to him so he has no problem being a barista.
"I honestly need this..." I said to the air.
"For what?" I heard him ask me.
"To forget, I guess," I answered him unconciously.
I heard he laugh. I ignored that because I knew he was just teasing me.
I want to forget, yes.
“To forget? Really? E, it seems that every time you go on a business trip or vacation trip, you remember him. Tagging along with a stranger, huh?” It was a long speech so I was even more frustrated.
He's right. He has a point. Where did it all start? On a vacation trip. Where it all ended, on the vacation trip. But has anything started? How can I say something is over?
It's been a month... six month I guess since I last saw him. In that area. Under the heavy rain. Under that magic. I don’t know how it makes me feel. I don’t know if I’m hurting or what, but fuck it! Who the fool would fall for a stranger who's until now still could not be forgotten.
I don't know him. I don't know his name. I don't know his past... don't I really know? Or am I just pretending I didn’t know because I still can’t accept? I do not know.
“Fate is something... funny. You can play with it. Who knows, after six months... something magically will happen again,” Sebastian uttered.
Magic my ass. No way.

Falling For The Biker: The Vice President's Girl
293.4k Views · Completed · Lily S.W
"Do you feel that, Wren? That pull between us?"
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.
Dragged home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax—the Raven Reapers MC's vice president and her brother's best friend. He's infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting for a man she should never touch.
And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?

“I thought we discussed this earlier, Weakness? I warned you. His death is on your hands.”
“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.

What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.

Rise of the Banished She-Wolf

"White wolf! Kill that monster!"
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

Triplet Alpha: My Fated Mates

"Kara." Cole’s voice drops. "Are you—did I hurt you?"
"No." "I'm fine."
"Fuck," he breathes. "You're—"
"Don't." My voice cracks. "Please don't say it."
"Aroused." He says it anyway. "You're aroused."
"I'm not—"
"Your scent." His nostrils flare. "Kara, you smell like—"
"Stop." I cover my face with my hands. "Just—stop."
Then his hand on my wrist, pulling my hands away.
"There's nothing wrong with wanting us," he says softly. "It's natural. You're our mate. We're yours."
"I know." My voice is barely a whisper.
I spent ten years as a ghost in the Sterling mansion—a debt slave to the triplet Alphas who made my life hell. They called me "Carrot," shoved me into frozen rivers, and left me to die in the snow when I was eleven.
On my eighteenth birthday, everything changed. My first shift released a scent of white musk and first snow—and three former tormentors stood outside my door, claiming I was their fated mate. All three of them.
Overnight, the debt vanished. Asher's commands turned to vows, Blake's fists became trembling apologies, and Cole swore they'd been waiting for me all along. They declared me their Luna and promised to spend their lives atoning.
My wolf howls to accept them. But one question haunts me:
Would that eleven-year-old girl, freezing and certain she would die, forgive the choice I'm about to make?
"No." "I'm fine."
"Fuck," he breathes. "You're—"
"Don't." My voice cracks. "Please don't say it."

The CEO Above My Desk
99.2k Views · Ongoing · McKenzie Shinabery
“You think she needs you,” he says.
“I know she does.”
“And what if she doesn’t want this kind of protection?”
“She will,” I say, my voice lowering slightly. “Because she needs a man who can give her the world.”
“And if the world burns?”
My hand tightens subtly at Violet’s waist.
“Then I’ll build her a new one,” I reply. “Even if I have to burn the old one down myself.”
I don’t work for Rowan Ashcroft.
I work beneath him.
From my desk, I decide who gets access to the most ruthless CEO in the city, and who never makes it past the lobby. I manage his time, his silence, his enemies. I keep his world running while my own quietly collapses under unpaid bills, a mother locked in rehab, and a brother who vanished without a goodbye.
Rowan Ashcroft is power wrapped in a tailored suit.
Cold. Untouchable. Merciless.
He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see people, only usefulness.
And for a long time, I was just useful.
Until he started watching.
A shift in his attention is subtle at first. A pause too long. A look that lingers. Orders that pull me closer instead of pushing me away. The man who stands above my desk begins to control more than my schedule, and I realize too late that being noticed by Rowan Ashcroft is far more dangerous than being ignored.
Because men like him don’t crave affection.
They crave possession.
This was supposed to be a job.
Not a test of my limits.
Not a slow, deliberate descent into his authority.
But if Rowan Ashcroft decides I belong under his desk, then so be it.
Survival has a price, and the bills don’t care how I pay them.
