Introduction
Chapter 1
My heart raced as I jolted awake, startled from my sleep. The realization hit me like a ton of bricks - I was completely naked. Embarrassment flooded my cheeks, and I frantically scanned the room for any clues to what had happened.
"Damn it!" I exclaimed, frustration lacing my words.
"What have you done, Bella?" I scolded myself, my voice filled with disbelief.
Beside me lay a man, his back turned towards me. I had no recollection of who he was or how we ended up here. Slowly, the memories of last night began to resurface - the bar, the drinks, and his invitation to join him. In my desperation to escape the pain of my father's betrayal, I had foolishly agreed.
"No, this can't be real," I muttered, struggling to accept the truth.
A sinking feeling settled in my chest. I had thrown myself at a complete stranger, acting recklessly and without caution. Anxiety twisted in my stomach as I carefully slipped out of bed, careful not to disturb him. My hands trembled as I hastily dressed, grabbing my clothes from the floor.
As I grabbed my purse and made my way towards the door, shame and regret washed over me. I had made a colossal mistake, and now I had to figure out how to live with the consequences.
Returning home, I was met with my mother's familiar scolding. However, this time, I couldn't bear to listen. My mind was consumed by the events of the day. Brushing past her, I hurried to my room, desperate to escape her judgment.
"Is this what you've become?" she asked, her anger evident in her voice.
"You don't even want to hear me out anymore. Always coming home in the early hours of the morning!" she added, her words laced with disappointment.
"Where did you sleep last night?!" she asked again, her forehead creasing with concern.
"Mom, please, not now," I replied firmly, shutting the door to my room.
"Stubborn!" I heard her exclaim.
I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts, and hurriedly made my way to the bathroom. I needed to feel clean and safe again. Turning on the shower, I stepped in, letting the hot water wash away the dirt and the memories from last night.
"I hope I never have to see him again," I whispered to myself, recalling what had happened.
Closing my eyes, I let the water cascade over my body, hoping it would wash away the lingering touch of his hands. But no matter how hard I scrubbed, I still felt tainted.
I wanted to forget, but the memories persisted, haunting my mind. It felt like hours had passed before I finally stepped out of the shower, yet the water had done little to ease my troubled thoughts. Wrapping myself in a towel, I quickly got dressed.
"Bella, let's have lunch now. Don't be stubborn!" my mom called from outside my room.
"I'm coming, mom," I replied, ready to face the world once again.
I stepped out of my room and caught sight of my mother setting the table with food.
"Shall we dig in?" she invited cheerfully.
Without uttering a word, I quietly took my seat.
"Bella, is something bothering you?" she inquired, her gaze fixed on me.
"Nothing," I replied curtly.
"Why do you refuse to heed our advice?" she asked, shaking her head.
"You always come home in the morning. Where did you spend the night?" she questioned.
"Mom, let's not discuss that anymore. I'm sorry, alright?" I pleaded, taking a deep breath.
"You're mature enough to know right from wrong, so I hope you'll make better choices," she said, her words hanging in the air.
I held my breath, contemplating her words. I knew I hadn't been the best daughter, constantly disappointing them. But what about my father, the one who betrayed us?
"You can't take away my worries just because you're my mother," she asserted firmly.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and I knew it was my father. My mother quickly got up and opened the door.
"Hello, my beautiful wife," he greeted with a smile.
"Where have you been? You're already late, sweetheart," my mother pouted.
"Sweetheart, I went to the flower shop to buy this for you," my father said, his voice filled with sweetness.
I couldn't help but feel angry at his words to mom. He was such a cheater and a liar. My father knew how to say all the right things, but his actions were full of deceit. That's why I don't take men seriously; I want to play with their hearts, just like my father did to my mother.
"Anyway, how was your day, daughter?" he asked me gently.
I had no choice but to pretend that everything was okay after what happened to me last night. But my mother interrupted and informed him that I had just come home this morning.
"I'm good," I replied, keeping my answer brief.
"Where were you last night, daughter?" my father asked, curiosity evident in his voice.
I didn't want to remember it, but he insisted on asking, so I lied to him. I told him I was with my friends last night, even though the truth was that I had slept with a stranger.
I despised him for asking me questions as if he genuinely cared. He had no right to question me after all.
"Sweetheart, just let her enjoy her time with her friends. She's old enough, so stop trying to control her," my father said.
"I'm not trying to control her. I just want what's best for her," my mother insisted.
"I understand where you're coming from, but it's important to keep an open mind," my father explained, trying to reason with me.
"Dad, mom, enough with this argument," I said, taking a deep breath to calm myself.
Just as the tension was rising, my phone started ringing. It was Erica, my friend. I quickly answered the call, excusing myself from the conversation with my parents.
"Hey, Sofia. Another night out?" Erica asked, curious about my plans.
"Yeah, but there's something I need to tell you," I replied, hinting at a secret.
"What is it? You've got me intrigued," she said eagerly.
"I'll fill you in later," I said, keeping her in suspense.
"Alright then. See you later. Bye!" she said before ending the call.
In the evening, I bid farewell to my parents once again, and this time, my father managed to convince my mother to let me have my way. I needed a break from all the burdens and problems in my life.
"Take care, my daughter. Just remember to stay within your limits, okay?" my mother reminded me.
"Got it. Bye, mom!" I said, giving them a final goodbye.
As I arrived at the bar, I immediately called Sofia to find out where she was. The thought of the guy I had been with the previous night lingered in my mind, and I desperately wanted to avoid him. I couldn't explain the mix of emotions I was feeling.
"Come inside," Sofia told me, ending the call.
My heart raced as I stepped into the bar, taking a deep breath to calm my nerves. I scanned the room, searching for Sofia, frustration building as I realized I had no idea what she looked like. I dialed her number again, only to be met with silence on the other end. Feeling restless, I decided to order a shot of whiskey to ease my impatience while I waited.
Suddenly, a cold voice from behind startled me, causing me to turn around. There stood a man with black wavy hair, piercing brown eyes, a pointed nose, and pinkish lips. He was undeniably handsome, and I couldn't help but be captivated by his appearance. However, there was something about his face that felt strangely familiar, causing my heart to skip a beat.
"Do you still remember what happened last night?" he asked, his tone serious.

After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

Bella and Her Beast
.
Locked in her frozen tower, Bella dreamed of warmth, of touch, of freedom and of love. Cursed with the power of ice and snow, she’s spent her life alone. A secret they tried to protect the world from. Her only escape comes in the form of the books she reads. Stories of heat, desire, and the kind of love that could melt even her frostbitten heart.
Damien is the Beast. A dragon King with a temper forged in flame and a soul hollowed by duty. The world fears him. The people call him a monster. But beneath the scales and the rage lies a man who has never been touched by love.
When frost meets fire, the world shatters. She was never meant to leave her tower. He was never meant to find her. But destiny doesn’t bow to kings or care for cages and now the question burns through them both: Can Bella have her Beast? Or will the girl of snow melt in the heat of his desire?
.
"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.
"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."

He used one of his hands to stroke my cheek and tingles erupted everywhere.

Iron And Glamour Just Don't Mix
Well… Sometimes you just might turn out to be right.
It turns out, the fae stole my little brother. In his place? A pixie with boundary issues and a talent for home repairs.
I’ve spent my life taking care of everyone else. So when my baby brother is taken, I don’t hesitate. I walk straight into a faerie mansion and make a bargain with its infuriatingly charming master.
Kie is everything you’d expect from a dangerous fae, beautiful, political, and entirely too amused by me. Power wrapped in a smirk. Sensual, mischievous, and far too aware of the effect he has on people. He agrees to help me find my brother.
For a price.
Now I’m bound by a faerie bargain and navigating a world of glamour, manipulation, and ancient rules I definitely should have learned sooner, enchanted forests, political games, magical contracts, and a fae lord who treats seduction like a perfectly reasonable negotiation tactic.
Iron is how I keep people out.
Glamour is how he draws them in.
And apparently, they just don’t mix.
