Chapter 1
Manhattan's bustling streets were always alive, but on this crisp autumn morning, they seemed to pulse with an extra dose of energy. Emily Windsor stepped out of her apartment, inhaling the scent of freshly brewed coffee wafting from the café below. She lived for days like this.
As she hurried to meet Rachel for brunch, Emily's mind wandered to her upcoming event-planning projects. Her phone buzzed with a text from her assistant, and she quickly scanned the message while navigating the crowded sidewalk.
That's when it happened.
Emily collided with a tall, handsome stranger.
Apologies filled the air as they both bent to gather scattered papers and belongings.
Their eyes met.
Time froze.
Emily's gaze locked onto piercing blue eyes, framed by chiseled features and a strong jawline.
"I'm so sorry," Emily said, her cheeks flushing.
The stranger smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
"I'm Jack Harrington," he said, his deep voice sending shivers down her spine.
Emily's heart skipped a beat.
As they stood, their hands touched, sparking an electric connection.
"Emily Windsor," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper.
Their conversation flowed effortlessly, like they'd known each other for years.
As they parted ways, Jack asked for her number.
Emily hesitated, but something about Jack put her at ease.
"Maybe I'll see you around," she said, smiling.
Jack grinned. "Count on it."
Emily watched Jack disappear into the crowd, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss.
What just happened?
She shook off the feeling and continued to the café.
Rachel raised an eyebrow as Emily recounted the encounter.
"Sounds like fate," Rachel said, sipping her coffee.
Emily dismissed the idea.
"Fate doesn't exist," Emily said with a laugh.
But as she left the café, Emily couldn't shake off the feeling that her life had just intersected with someone special.
Little did she know, their fateful encounter was only the beginning.

The Son of Red Fang
170.2k Views · Completed · Diana Sockriter
Alpha werewolves should be cruel and merciless with unquestionable strength and authority, at least that’s what Alpha Charles Redmen believes and he doesn’t hesitate to raise his kids to be the same way.
Alpha Cole Redmen is the youngest of six born to Alpha Charles and Luna Sara Mae, leaders of the Red Fang pack. Born prematurely, Alpha Charles rejected him without hesitation as weak and undeserving of his very life. He is reminded daily of his father’s hatred for him paving the way for the rest of his family to become the same.
By adulthood, his father’s hatred and abuse towards him has spilled over into the rest of the pack making him the scapegoat for those with the sadistic need to see him suffer. The rest are simply too afraid to even look his way leaving him little in the way of friends or family to turn to.
Alpha Demetri Black is the leader of a sanctuary pack known as Crimson Dawn. It’s been years since a wolf has made their way to his pack via the warrior’s prospect program but that doesn’t mean he’s not looking for the tell tale signs of a wolf in need of help.
Malnourished and injured upon his arrival, Cole’s anxious and overly submissive demeanor lands him in the very situation he’s desperate to avoid, in the attention of an unknown alpha.
Yet somehow through the darkness of severe illness and injury he runs into the very person he’s been desperate to find since he turned eighteen, his Luna. His one way ticket out of the hell he’s been born into.
Will Cole find the courage needed to leave his pack once and for all, to seek the love and acceptance he’s never had?

“You think I’d share my mate? Just stand by and watch while you fuck another woman and have her kids?”
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” my mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”
As a girl without a wolf, I left my mate and my pack behind.
Among humans, I survived by becoming a master of the temporary: drifting job to job… until I became the best bartender in a dusty Texas town.
That’s where Alpha Adrian found me.
No one could resist the charming Adrian, and I joined his mysterious pack hidden deep in the desert.
The Alpha King Tournament, held once every four years, had begun. Over fifty packs from across North America were competing.

“Do you, April Lilian Farrah, take Nathan Edward Ashford to be your lawfully wedded husband, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?”
I gaze up at his gorgeous green eyes, and my answer is immediate: “I do.”
“And do you, Nathan Edward Ashford take April Lillian Farrah to be your lawfully wedded wife, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?”
Nathan squeezes my hand and leans forward. His lips brush the shell of my ear, causing a shiver to run down my spine.
“You really are audacious, April,” he whispers. “Audacious and delusional.” Then he pulls back and gives me the widest, most sinister grin I’ve ever seen, before announcing to the entire church: “I. Would. Rather. Eat. Shit.”
April’s life is already complicated enough—balancing her little sister’s overwhelming medical bills and a stressful college career after losing both parents. The last thing she needs is Nathan Ashford: her first love, who shattered her heart and humiliated her in high school, back in her life.
She discovers that Nathan is one of three heirs to the city's most powerful family, launching a contest to find a bride. April wants absolutely nothing to do with it—until her meddling roommate submits an application for her.
Suddenly thrown into Nathan’s lavish world, she must navigate social graces, fierce competition, and unsettling secrets. But the hardest challenge? Facing Nathan again and the unresolved feelings he awakens in her.
Will April emerge with her heart intact—or will Nathan destroy her once again?
