"Did you really think a pretty dress could hide all of... this?"
Elowen Hart is a soft, curvy woman who has been taught her whole life that her body is a failure that she is a failure. At her supposed engagement party, her fiancé Julian humiliates her publicly, leaving her for his thin, vicious first love, Livia Monroe, while guests laugh and her own father films it.
Broken and alone, Elowen flees to a new city to start her life over. There, she takes a new job as secretary to Eryx Voltaire, a billionaire CEO so cold they call him the Ice King.

The Ice King will stop at nothing to reclaim the woman who haunts him, even if he must burn his own empire to the ground. Their second chance is a war of old wounds, stolen kisses, and an obsession neither of them can escape.

“Nobody wants me to be your Luna. Just do what everybody wants and reject me!” Rina cried desperately.

“I am never going to reject you Rina.”

“Why? Is it until you see me dead?! You and I both know I’m never going to be worthy to become Luna so just let me go. Give the people what they want.” Rina said, exhaustion all over her face.

“I don’t think you understand Rina.” The prince stalked towards her. “I’m never going to let you go. I’ll burn down the entire kingdom before I ever let you go.”

He vowed before slamming her against his body and kissed her senseless.

"Have you thought for a moment that the reason you can't kiss her is because you want to be kissing me instead?" Jordan asks boldly, which leaves me short of words. I know he is angry with me for avoiding what happened between us before Elise came. The fire within his eyes burns into my skin, and all I want to do is grab him and claim him. Yet, I can't. I'm afraid. How can I admit that to him? That the very thought of admitting my feelings for him makes my skin crawl? I wish I can be like him— so bold, so carefree to go for what I want. But it's not so simple. And yet, I still want him so bad.
I don't know what arouses me more. His beauty which— no boy should be that beautiful, or his submissiveness. As I stare at his partly open mouth, I let myself wonder how that sweet soft mouth would feel around my member. The thought alone is enough to push my hardness against the seams of my pants.

For seventeen years, I believed I was nothing, Iris Delta, the unwanted orphan tolerated by a pack that saw me as a burden. The Maxwell quad Alpha heirs made sure I knew my place, tormenting me with cruel words and vicious pranks. I was weak, worthless, invisible.
I was wrong about everything.
On my eighteenth birthday, Alpha Maxwell reveals the truth that changes everything: I'm Seraphina Blackthorne, the last heir of a bloodline thought extinct. My parents didn't abandon me; they were murdered by the Northern Alliance, who believed they'd eliminated every trace of Blackthorne power.
They were wrong, too.
The moment my wolf Diamond awakens, the mate bond snaps into place with the four men who made my life hell. Fin, Brent, Kane, and Liam, my tormentors, are my fated mates, four pieces of one soul that can only be completed by me.

He grabbed my breasts again, and kissed me like he wanted to devour me, for a minute. Then he withdrew his lips and widened my legs, then placed his dick at the entrance of my pussy and thrusted in.
Oh my, he was so big.

"Don’t move an inch, continue fucking her!" I screamed.
"Asssshley pleassse!" He pleaded, with tears coming out of his eyes.
"What’s that? No! Don’t cry, you are a guy. Don’t you want this?" I asked, glaring at him.
Ashley, please don’t kill himmm! We are sorry!" Emily cried out.
"You are sorry? So, I should just forgive you?" I asked, sounding hurt.
"Please Ashley, don’t do this. You know I still love you?" he said.
"Love? Shut your mouth hole, you scumbag!" I screamed. "What are you waiting for? Start rocking your hips, isn’t that want you wanted, you want to fuck my friend so badly now do it?" I asked. Emily was still crying underneath as he started thrusting into her harder than before. She was the last person I expected this from. I never thought she would have an affair with my own boyfriend. It was surreal. I couldn’t believe what was happening. I felt like evaporating, yet this was happening.
"Fuck her harder! Harder! Harder!" I screamed. He was moving his hips as I was screaming. I moved closer to them on the bed and slapped his butt cheeks hard.
"I said harder!!!" I screamed.
"P…. please Ashhhhhley, he is h-hurting me." Emily screamed. I chuckled, "He wasn’t hurting you when it was just the two of you. Now he is hurting you?" I asked and slapped her hard across the face, still pointing the gun at his head. Her face turned red.

"I want to sleep with you." Lendon stared at Kendra, blurted out his perverted words. Then, he grabbed Kendra's shoulder suddenly. He was pushing her to the bed.

Kendra pushed Lendon away and raised her palms on his chest, "Wait! Why do I have to sleep with you? You just slept with that woman."

Does he have a lot of energy to sleep with several women? Besides, Kendra knew herself well. That woman was way hotter than her. She pouted her lips when she thought how Lendon enjoyed that beauty earlier.

"Do I need a reason to sleep with you?" Lendon shouted in anger.

"But the contract…." Kendra said.

"I am Party A." Lendon interrupted Kendra and narrated proudly, "You should cooperate with me all the time. Do you forget?"

Looking at Lendon's eyes, Kendra felt horrible and shook her head. It seemed that she couldn't escape tonight.

I like to stay an optimist, but being a college drop-out and lonely barista is not exactly an eventful or enviable life. Then one of my customers kidnapped me on my way to work and tried to turn me into a human sacrifice. It seems she mistook me for her rival, an ancient witch.
To be clear, I am not a witch. Turns out I can shape-shift though. Just.. not very well. I have zero control over what I turn into, and now I appear to be stuck as a cat, a little black house cat to be more specific. I was stranded in the woods with zero chance of getting back to civilization when I came across this beautiful werewolf boy just returning from a night of full moon fun way out here in the woods.
Now I know what you’re thinking: cat chases dog, a bad idea, right? But human him seems to love my fluffy cat self. Though he has no idea who I really am since the only thing I can say to him right now is either “purr” or “meow”. He was kind enough to rescue me and take me home to his apartment. Now I’ve been sitting on his lap and sleeping in his bed and feeling entirely frustrated I have no way to ask him how the hell you control this animal to human thing! He seems to manage it easily enough, snapping right back to human shape each morning from wolf, so why can’t I escape this prison of furry flesh?
I need to find some way to communicate with him, and also to deal with this witch hunting me down. And also avoid this boy’s family: an entire, volatile clan of werewolves with a decidedly low tolerance for cat-girls.

When I was excited to contact my boyfriend, I found him fucking a bitch! Ridiculously, he teased me that our relationship was just a bet.
Moreover, My adoptive father arrested me for gibberish from a woman he met for the first time! I have no choice but to run!
At the end of my rope, I was approached by someone who claimed to be my biological mother. And now, I'm being mocked mercilessly. I really regret coming here. I'd rather I was ROGUE!
“She's my daughter, and for her pleasure, she could buy 10,000 of these malls. She could make her name on your face! "
Then she told me I have a powerful Alpha father and four strong, handsome Alpha brothers.
As I followed them home, I happened to run into my SECOND MATE. Only, he seemed to have an ex he couldn't get over...
