Chapter: Chapter 46
Julia.I couldn’t stop shaking.My hands trembled as I poured a splash of brandy into the crystal tumbler. It sloshed over the rim, dripping onto the polished oak table, but that was the least of my problems. My mouth was dry, and the burn of the liquor was the only thing anchoring me to the moment.That idiot. That absolute, bumbling, thick-headed idiot.He got caught. After I paid handsomely, I might add — to make Rose go away, had somehow managed to get himself picked up by the police like a common thug. The very thought made my skin crawl. I pressed my palm against my forehead, dragging it down my face, smearing the sweat and brandy as I went.Worse, I’d heard the whispers.Rose wasn’t dead.They said she was in a coma, clinging to life like a weed in concrete, and the police were sniffing around like dogs who'd caught the scent of something rotting. My chest felt tight, and I struggled to draw in a full breath. If she woke up… if she talked—I downed the rest of the brandy in a s

Camilla.At first, I thought it was just a voice in my dream—soft and distant, like someone calling to me from the bottom of a well. “Camilla,” it said. Gentle. Urgent.Then it came again, louder, slicing through the fog in my mind.“Camilla!”My eyes flew open, breath catching in my throat. The world tilted as I sat up too fast, and for a moment, everything spun. Cold air wrapped around me like icy fingers, and I blinked against the grey haze.Miri was crouched beside me, her hands trembling as they gripped my shoulders.“Camilla! Oh thank God—you scared the hell out of me,” she breathed, voice cracking. Her eyes were wide, glassy with tears that she clearly didn’t want to fall. “Don’t you ever do that again!”“I—” My voice came out hoarse, dry as dust. I touched my forehead, wincing as a dull ache throbbed behind my temples. “What… happened?”“You fainted.” She sniffed, wiping at her cheek with the sleeve of her hoodie. “Right in front of that damn grave. One second you were standin

Camilla.I stared at them both—Grey and Bryce—with the kind of raw expectation that threatened to tear me apart. My voice trembled, though I tried to lace it with fire."Who the hell is Camilla?" I snapped. "What did you mean when you said I was her?"Silence. Deafening, suffocating silence.My heartbeat pounded like war drums in my ears. Grey glanced at Bryce, his mouth opening, then shutting again like a fish out of water. He looked… scared? No, stunned. I stepped forward, eyes wild. “Answer me!”Grey finally stammered, "Iv—I mean, Cam— I mean, listen, this isn't easy to explain."He winced as if even the name burned his tongue.“Stop looking at me like that and just tell me!” I screamed, the name Camilla ringing in my head like a curse. “Tell me what you know. I woke up in that hospital and I couldn't remember anything! And yes, I had to name myself Ivory or maybe my aunt gave me that name.”Grey scrubbed a hand over his face and then shoved Bryce forward like he couldn’t bear to

Chapter: Chapter 43
Grey’s POVI sat behind my desk, fingers idle against the cold mahogany surface, but my mind? It was a storm. The soft clicking of the clock on the wall was the only sound in my office, yet it felt deafening, as if it were mocking me for how distracted I’d become.Ivory.Her name whispered in my mind like a damn prayer and a curse at once.I’d told myself this marriage was just a contract—an arrangement, a strategy. But ever since the night we made love, something had cracked open in me. I couldn’t get the way she’d whispered my name out of my head, the softness of her lips against my skin, the way her body had curled into mine like we belonged together. It was just sex, I told myself. Just a lapse. But it didn’t feel like it.And that terrified me.I slammed a file shut harder than necessary, the sharp snap echoing through the room. My jaw tightened. No. No, I couldn’t let this happen. Falling for her would only complicate things. She wasn’t supposed to matter this much.“Mr. Grey?”

Chapter: Chapter 42
Camilla.I didn’t tell anyone.Not old lady that has been friendly lately, not even Miri—no one. If I opened my mouth, they’d try to stop me. Maybe not out of malice, maybe out of fear or love or whatever, but it didn’t matter. This was something I had to do. Alone.The newspaper felt damp in my hands, crumpled and nearly torn at the edges from how many times I’d folded and unfolded it throughout the night. The image on the front page stared up at me like a challenge—her face, my face. That woman... she could be my exact replica, if not for the blank emptiness in her eyes. And there, in bold print beneath the photograph, was the name of the venue where it all supposedly happened.I held the paper tighter, slipping past the east wing of the mansion, careful not to make the floorboards creak. My heart thundered in my chest, screaming that someone would catch me, but no one did. The morning air hit me like a slap the moment I stepped outside—sharp and cold, waking me up in ways that no a

Chapter: Chapter 40
Camilla.The soft rays of morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. I stretched lazily, feeling the remnants of a wonderful dream about Grey. Last night had been perfect. He’d held me close, kissed me with such intensity, and whispered promises of forever into my ear. It had felt so real, so right. I smiled at the thought of it as I slowly sat up in bed, rubbing my eyes.But as the haze of sleep lifted, something felt… off. I glanced around, noticing immediately that the space beside me was empty. The sheets where Grey had been just hours before were cold, undisturbed. I reached out instinctively, as if hoping to feel him beside me, but there was nothing. The bed was just a bed, and it felt like it was missing a piece.A small pang of disappointment blossomed in my chest. Where did he go?I stood up and pulled on my robe, then quickly made my way out of the room. My feet moved automatically, but my mind was clouded. I hadn’t expected him to be gon

Wanted by my ex mate

Wanted by my ex mate

Aurora Ross thought she had finally found her place in the world when she believed Ethan Thorne, the powerful alpha, was her mate. But when he rejects her—just after an intimate moment—she vanishes, heartbroken and angry, choosing to disappear rather than stay in a world that feels increasingly cold. Three years later, Ethan is shocked to discover that the daughter he never knew existed—Ama—is undeniably his. As he seeks out Aurora, he is confronted by her fierce determination to keep him away, afraid he will break their daughter’s heart just as he did hers. But Aurora is no longer the woman Ethan rejected. She's stronger, wiser, and now, she's awakening powers that even she never expected. As secrets unravel and betrayal comes to light, Ethan must confront his past mistakes and fight alongside Aurora to protect their daughter from a sinister plot. Together, they will face dangers that test their bond, but as the past heals, their future is rewritten—not in the way Ethan imagined, but in the way Aurora always deserved. Will love, redemption, and strength be enough to bridge the gap between them, or will the past prove too hard to overcome?

Chapter: Chapter 7
Ethan.I couldn’t stop myself from staring at her. The moment I saw Aurora standing in front of me, everything else faded into the background. My anger, which had been simmering for so long, was still there, but it had shifted. It was no longer just anger—it was something darker, something primal. My wolf paced restlessly inside of me, urging me forward, urging me to claim her, to drag her back to where she belonged.My breath caught in my throat as I watched her, her figure more beautiful than I remembered, the same fiery defiance in her eyes. It didn’t matter how much time had passed; the effect she had on me was undeniable. Three years. Three fucking years. And I couldn’t stop myself from wanting her. From needing her."You’re the last person I ever thought we bother searching for me," Aurora said, shaking. "What the hell are you doing in my apartment? How did you sneak in?"I clenched my fists at my sides, struggling to keep my wolf in check. I could feel the urge to snap, to take

Chapter: Chapter 6
Aurora.The sound of Mr. Harper's voice was the only thing I could hear at the point, harsh and sharp. His words were venomous, the kind that made my stomach churn. "Aurora! What the hell is this? This is the kind of incompetent work I expect from an intern, not someone with your title. What are you doing? Do you even care about your job?" His voice echoed through the office, loud enough to make every head turn in my direction.I froze. not that this was the first time this was happening, but then I think I've had enough of him already. My fingers gripped the edge of my desk, knuckles turning white. I had spent countless sleepless nights trying to get this project right. I had skipped meals, ignored calls from friends, and barely saw my daughter all week, just to make sure the report was perfect. And for what? To be met with this.But my mind was too numb to even process the words. All I could think of were the sleepless nights, the endless revisions, the constant fear of disappointin

Chapter: Chapter 5
Ethan.I was so damn angry!I could feel the anger brewing inside me the moment I stepped out of the car. My hands clenched into fists, white-knuckled, the anger swirling inside me like a tornado. The drive home had been a blur, but the image of Aurora, and that of the little girl that called her mommy kept playing in my head. And the audacity. The absolute audacity.I couldn’t believe it. Aurora was pregnant with my child before I’d even rejected her and she didn't even say a word of it to me. The idea was enough to make my blood boil. She had my child, and she hadn’t even bothered to let me know. She ran. Disappeared. And what hurt the most was that she didn’t think I was worth telling. Like I didn’t deserve to know.As I stormed through the gates, the fury building up inside me, I barely registered the familiar stone walls of the estate, the pristine landscape that usually calmed my nerves. Today, everything felt suffocating.I barely made it to the front door when I heard voices.

Ethan.“Uncle Ethan!”I barely had time to brace myself before a small, curly-haired missile crashed into my legs. I let out a huff of laughter, crouching down to scoop my niece into my arms. She wrapped her arms around my neck, her giggles warm against my skin.“There’s my girl,” I murmured, giving her a gentle squeeze. “Did you today, Emma? Did you drive your teachers crazy? Are you going to end up needing to explain something to Mom?”She pulled back, nodding with a seriousness that only a four-year-old could muster. “I shared my crayons and didn’t push Danny off the slide, even though he was being super mean. I'm not going to tell mom that I did anything wrong. I did everything correct today. I even got a golden star. My teacher said that I was a good girl.”“Good girl.” I smoothed a stray curl from her face. “That’s what Alphas do, right? Stay strong and fair. You don't push others, nor do we tease them. We stand strong by their side and we teach them how to be good. That is why

Aurora:“Ama, sweetheart, where’s your other shoe?” I called, balancing a steaming mug of coffe in one hand and hairbrush in the other. She often didn't do her best to try and hide her shoes, especially when it came to the fact of her heading to the daycare.Then again, I knew that it was her hiding her things whenever she did not want to go anywhere beside ice cream or the park. She was just as stubborn as her father, no matter how much I wanted to try and forget him.A giggle echoed from behind the couch, followed by the soft thud of tiny feet against the floor. I set the mug down on the kitchen counter and leaned over the back of the worn sofa, finding my daughter crouched beneath the coffee table. She let out a little giggle, but did her best to try and keep herself hidden despite making a little noise that I believed she thought I wouldn’t hear.“There you are,” I said, smiling despite the chaos. “We’re going to be late, love. And I think that you know that you don't want to be l

Chapter: Chapter 2
Ethan.The cold air bit into my skin as I stood by the open window, watching the early morning mist curl over the training grounds. Everyone was taking care of what they needed to do. Everyone knew how they were going to be dealing with things by now. I did not need to instruct them on their every move.The pack was already awake, warriors running drills, their breath visible in the chill. I watched in silence, watching as they trained, watching and supervising what they were doing. A heavy feeling settled in my chest. Though I did not understand what it was, I knew that it was one that I was not going to like.My fingers tightened around the windowsill, the wood creaking under the pressure. My thoughts circled back to Aurora, those wide, wounded eyes staring back at me, her whispered acceptance of my rejection. The way that you had rejected me back so confidently and calmly, I did not understand why she had done so or how she managed to do so. I had expected tears, maybe a plea or t

A Breeder For The Ruthless Alpha king

A Breeder For The Ruthless Alpha king

He wanted a breeder. She needed a miracle. Neither expected fate to entwine their shattered souls. In the ruthless Golden Moon Pack, power rules—and love is a dangerous game. Alpha King Ellison Redmond has buried his heart beneath layers of nightmares and bloodshed. Haunted by betrayal, he vowed never to take a Luna, only a breeder to carry his heir. Desperate and broken, Omega Lucy Grey accepts the unthinkable—becoming the King’s breeder in exchange for the money that could save her comatose mother. But palace walls hold more than luxury—they conceal venomous secrets, deadly rivalries, and a Luna Dowager who will stop at nothing to crown her own daughter Queen. As Lucy finds herself caught between court politics, hidden enemies, and a King who’s not as heartless as he seems, she discovers something far more dangerous than rejection… love. Betrayal runs deep, and when the truth claws its way into the light, Lucy must fight not just for her future, but for her children, her mate, and the only man who ever made her feel seen. Can a love born of desperation bloom into destiny? Or will the shadows of the past claim their happily ever after?

Chapter: Chapter 16
Lucy.There was nothing elegant about the village training ground. No polished floors. No enchanted dummies or forged steel weapons like the ones back at the palace. Just bare earth, cracked from the heat of the sun, training dummies made from old logs and rope, and weapons cobbled together from whatever metal the local blacksmith had left.But here? Strength spoke louder than titles.The moment I stepped onto the open field, every head turned.The scent of sweat and testosterone was thick in the air. Male warriors—broad-chested, scarred, and towering—stood in a scattered circle, some training, others lounging as if they owned the place.Their gazes landed on me like arrows.Their judgment was louder than any words.I could feel it—the disdain, the mockery, the not-so-subtle smirks curling on their lips. And I didn’t even need to guess why.They’d seen the pictures.Of course they had.One of the younger wolves elbowed the guy next to him and nodded in my direction. I caught the words

Alpha Ellison.The steak in front of me was cooked to perfection—medium-rare, just the way I liked it. The scent of rosemary and garlic wafted from the plate, mixing with the faint aroma of aged wine I hadn’t even sipped yet. This place was my favorite restaurant, tucked discreetly in a quiet corner of the capital and it was one of the few I considered neutral ground. No politics, no council pressure. Just quiet, just meat, just... peace. It was were my mother would always bring me when she was alive.I was halfway through slicing into the meat when my phone vibrated. Once. Then twice. Then it didn’t stop. The thing buzzed against the polished wood of the table like it was possessed.With a sigh, I set down my fork and reached for it. Dozens of notifications.Tagged photos. Mentions. Alerts. Headlines.My heart kicked against my ribs, a silent warning.I opened the first image.And froze.No. No, this wasn’t—The photo was unmistakable.Lucy.Wearing barely anything—soaked, startled,

Chapter: Chapter 14
Lucy.I wrapped the towel tighter around myself, my skin still stinging from the cold water of the spring and the even colder humiliation Aurora had left me soaked in. The images of her smirk, the shutter sound of her phone, and the helplessness I felt as I floated in that water—they refused to leave me.The moment I stepped back into my room, I shut the door and leaned against it, trying to catch my breath."She’s disgusting," I whispered aloud, voice shaking. "This place should have been a rehabilitation center than a palace! How the hell did she just take pictures of me almost naked? Goodness, I was losing my mind already."I dried myself off and changed into something warm—black leggings and a sweatshirt I didn’t even remember packing. The mirror caught my reflection. My cheeks were pink from the chill and the anger. My eyes, red from unshed tears.I wasn’t going to cry. Not for her. Not for any of them.Then my phone buzzed.Once. Then again. Then it didn’t stop.My heart picked

Chapter: Chapter 13
Lucy.Cold.Freezing cold water splashed across my face like a slap from winter itself, yanking me out of my dreams and into something much worse—reality.I gasped and shot up, blinking rapidly. My sheets clung to my damp skin, my hair dripping down my shoulders. “What the hell—?!”And then I saw them.Standing at the edge of my bed, with a silver bucket in hand and the kind of smug satisfaction that only decades of privilege could breed, was Luna Dowager Calantha. Right beside her, practically glowing with malicious glee, stood Aurora. Her hair was pulled back in a neat braid, her lips painted a venomous red that matched the evil twinkle in her eyes.“Rise and shine, darling,” Aurora said with a fake pout. “It’s time you start earning your place here.”I threw the soaked covers off my body and stood up, shivering in my thin nightgown. “You drenched me. What the hell is wrong with you?!”“I told you she’d overreact,” Aurora said, rolling her eyes to her mother. “She always plays the v

Chapter: Chapter 12
Alpha Ellison.I woke to the pale glow of morning pushing past the edges of my curtains, a softness I hadn’t felt in months. My body felt... rested. Not just physically, but something deeper. Like my soul had taken a breath.Strange.I blinked at the ceiling, allowing myself a rare moment of stillness. The blankets were tangled around my legs, the air still warm with the scent of lavender and something faintly familiar. Then it hit me—Lucy.She had come to my room last night, hadn’t she?I shot upright, scanning the room. No sign of her. The armchair near the fireplace was empty. The slippers at the end of my bed hadn’t moved. Was it a dream? I could’ve sworn I felt her warmth beside me… the soft pressure of her fingers, the way her presence had wrapped around my heart like a balm.But now, she was gone. If she had been here at all.A bitter exhale escaped my lips as I ran a hand down my face. Dreams didn’t usually leave this kind of ache.I shoved the thought aside. Today wasn’t the

Chapter: Chapter 11
Lucy.The silence of the night wrapped around me like a warm blanket, the only sounds were the soft rustle of leaves outside and the rhythm of my own breathing. Sleep had come easier than I expected, especially after the emotionally draining week we’d all had. A sharp, guttural scream pierced through the quiet, jerking me upright. My heart stuttered in my chest. I blinked against the darkness, trying to shake the lingering fog of sleep. Another shout echoed down the hall—raw, pained, and unmistakably male.“Alpha Ellison.”I didn’t think—I just moved. I threw off the covers, the cold air biting at my legs as I raced out the door, my bare feet slapping against the cool marble floor. The hallway was dark and the only light that came in was the moonlight filtering through stained glass windows, casting ghostly colors across the walls. His screams only grew louder, more desperate.I was nearly at his door when something slammed into me from the side.“What the—?”My body hit the floor ha
