Claimed By The Biker Alpha

They called her the weakest wolf. The runt, the reject. The girl with a wolf too small to ever fight. But when Jolie Rys runs away from her pack, fate delivers her into the arms of Ryder Kane, the ruthless alpha of the Iron Fang biker wolves. Ryder is everything she's been taught to fear: leather-clad, ink-stained, and dangerous enough to kill without hesitation. Yet his wolf claims her the second their eyes meet. His pack wants strength, and she is anything but strong. Still, Ryder refuses to let her go. In a world where wolves live and die by power, can the weakest wolf become the mate of the most feared alpha alive? Or will Ryder's enemies destroy her before she learns the truth about her own hidden strength? One thing is certain: once Ryder calls her his, no one touches her and lives.

Chapter: Chapter 198: Epilogue— Few Months Later
Jolie pov She has a sweet potato on her forehead, both cheeks, and somehow on the back of her neck.Ember sits in her high chair with the expressions of an artist at work, her silver-blonde pigtails escaping the ties Mara put them in this morning, her eyes glowing faintly with the warm pleasure of someone who has found sweet potato and correctly identified it as one of the best things that has ever happened.Ryder tries to wipe her face but she seizes his finger with both hands and the grip that stopped my heart the night she was born, which has only become more formidable in six months, and she laughs—a real, full, delighted baby laugh that carries through the whole cabin."She's definitely yours," I say from the doorway."She's got your power," he says, extricating his finger with some effort. He's trying very hard not to smile and failing completely."And your stubbornness.""Those are the same thing."Through the window, Knox is in the training yard with a group of young wolves—t

Chapter: Chapter 197 – The Last Watch
Ryder POV Phoenix finds the thread on a Tuesday. He's been pulling at it for three months — since the night before Ember was born, when I gave him one instruction while the compound was preparing for labor and everyone else's attention was pointed at the healing center: keep tracing. Don't stop. Don't let the lockdown protocols make us comfortable. Find the end of the line.He finds it on a Tuesday while Ember is asleep and Jolie is in the healing center reviewing Celeste's prenatal notes and the compound smells like woodsmoke.He comes to me directly, not over comms. That's how I know before he opens his mouth. "Sit down," he says, which Phoenix never says to me, and then catches himself and amends it to: "I mean — I have the trace. All of it. You're going to want to be sitting."I stay standing. "Show me."He lays it out on the command room table, printed pages, because Phoenix understands that some intelligence needs to exist in physical form that can be handed to people and point

Chapter: Chapter 196:
He leans down and kisses the top of Ember's head, very briefly, and then straightens up and becomes more stoic than he was a moment ago, which is his way of managing emotion in front of witnesses.Luna hands Ember back to me and takes Gio's arm, and the look she gives him is the kind of look that holds everything two people have built together.The afternoon is ours. Visitors gone, just the three of us in the quiet healing center, golden light through the windows, the compound settling into its afternoon rhythm outside. Ryder sits close while Ember and I work out breastfeeding for the first time—awkward and careful and eventually successful, and when she latches and the tiny spark of connection moves between us, mother to daughter, it doesn't feel like milk or biology. It feels like the mate bond when it first fully forms. Like something being completed."She's going to be powerful," Ryder says, watching."And loved," I say. "That's what matters."He's quiet for a moment. "Both.""Bot

Chapter: Chapter 195 – New Beginnings
Jolie POV I wake from the first real sleep I've had in what feels like weeks and my eyes go straight to the rocking chair before I'm fully conscious.He's there. Of course he's there. Ryder sits in Knox's chair with Ember against his chest, one massive tattooed hand curved around her entire back, and he's watching her sleep with an expression I don't have a name for yet—something between wonder and vigilance, like he can't fully believe she's real and he's not willing to look away long enough for her to become less so.He hasn't put her down. I realize, counting backward, that he hasn't put her down since Doc placed her in his arms."You should sleep," I say, my voice rough and new."I can't." He doesn't look away from her. "What if I miss something?""She's sleeping.""She might stop sleeping."I watch him for a moment—this man who has terrified wolves twice his size, who led a pack of exiles through wars and losses and the dissolution of the most powerful governing body in our regi

Chapter: Chapter 194 – Ember Rising
Ryder POV 6:23 AMThe cry cuts through everything. Through the blown-out light fixtures and the cracked windows and the brightness that's been burning in my eyes for hours. Through Shadow's frantic pacing inside me and the sound of my own blood and the grip of Jolie's hand so tight the bones have been grinding for the last hour. Through every terrifying moment of the last nine months and the years before that.One sound. Small and furious and utterly, completely alive. My daughter's voice and for the first time I heard it.Doc is moving—calm and quick, the way Doc does everything—and Jolie is still gasping and crying and laughing all at once, and I can't look away from the small, squirming, silver-tinged thing that Doc places on Jolie's chest with careful, certain hands."Healthy baby girl," he says, and his voice is thick in a way I've never heard from Doc, which tells me more than the words do.She's tiny. She's impossibly, terrifyingly small, fitting against Jolie's chest with roo

Chapter: Chapter 193 – Into the Fire
Jolie POV 2:47 AM — Full MoonThe water breaks with light. Not a slow seep—an explosion of light that floods the room and blazes through the cabin windows and wakes the compound faster than any alarm could. I hear it before I fully process what's happening: the sound of wolves rousing, voices, boots on the path outside. The full moon overhead and the moonfire inside me responding to each other in a way they haven't yet, frequency matching frequency, and somewhere in my chest my daughter announces herself.Ryder has the bag. I don't know when he grabbed it—sometime in the three seconds between my water breaking and us being in motion. His arm is around me, his voice against my hair: "I've got you," low and steady, and under the steadiness is everything he's been carrying for weeks and I love him for not letting it show.We make it two steps into the path and the next contraction arrives and I grip his arm and breathe and the moonfire cracks outward from my hands.Knox comes out of the

Rejected By My Hockey Alpha

Rejected By My Hockey Alpha

Timothy Blackthorn has it all. Alpha heir to the most powerful pack, hockey captain with a god-tier body, and a reputation for breaking hearts as easily as he breaks records. When the Moon Goddess reveals quiet, overlooked Penelope Hale as his destined mate, Timothy does the unthinkable: he rejects her. Publicly. Brutally. In front of thousands. Big mistake. Exiled and humiliated, Penelope finds refuge with the rival Bloodfang Pack, where she discovers two things that will change everything: she's a hockey prodigy with a killer instinct, and her "lowly" bloodline hides noble secrets that could topple kingdoms. Now she's back on the ice, leading Bloodfang to victory after victory, while Timothy's perfect life crumbles around him. His wolf is going feral without their mate. His team is losing. And the girl he threw away? She's become the most dangerous player in the league. But when pack politics turn deadly and silver daggers flash in the moonlight, Timothy and Penelope must face the truth: some bonds can't be broken, even by pride. Some love is worth fighting for. And sometimes, the mate you reject is the only one who can save you.

Chapter: Chapter 191 - The First Major Attack
Penelope's POV The pack hall is packed with worried faces. Families line up for emergency supplies. Food, blankets, medical necessities. Everything we lost in the depot fire. I'm coordinating distribution with Isla and several volunteers. We've been at this for six hours straight. "Next family," I call out. A mother with three small children approaches. She looks exhausted and scared. "What do you need?" I ask gently. "Everything," she admits. "We had supplies stored at the depot. For winter. Now it's all gone." My heart breaks for her, for all of them. "We'll take care of you. I promise." I fill bags with food staples. Rice, beans, canned goods. Add blankets and basic medical supplies. "This should last two weeks," I tell her. "Come back if you need more before then." "Thank you, Luna," she says, tears in her eyes. "Thank you so much." "We're pack," I remind her. "We take care of each other." She leaves with her children as the next family steps up immediately. "How many

Chapter: Chapter 190 - Political Pressure
Penelope's POV The Inter-Pack Council meeting is tense from the start. Seven representatives from different packs sit around the table. Timothy and I face them from across the room. Ethan stands behind us. "Four attacks in two weeks," Councilor Hammond slams his hand on the table. "Your territory is becoming unstable, Alpha Blackthorn." "We're handling it," Timothy says calmly. "Are you?" Hammond challenges. "Because from where I'm sitting, it looks like chaos." "We're investigating," Timothy explains. "Gathering evidence and trying to build a case." "While your people suffer," another councilor adds. "While property burns and families live in fear." I can feel Timothy's frustration through the bond. He's trying to do this right, not rush into hasty decisions. "What would you have me do?" Timothy asks. "Round up everyone who ever supported my father? Imprison them without evidence?" "If necessary," Hammond says bluntly. "Your father ruled with strength, maybe you should learn

Chapter: Chapter 189: Inspection
Timothy pov The Porter warehouse is last, the damage here is worse as the entire building collapsed. James Porter greets us with a grim face. "They used explosives. Professional grade, definitely not something you can buy at a store." "Military explosives," I conclude. "More evidence of professional soldiers." "They're not playing around," James agrees. "This was meant to send a serious message." "Message received," I say darkly. "And we're sending one back." We collect more evidence. More witness statements by the time we finish, it's late afternoon. On the drive back, Penelope reviews her notes. "Every attack happened between midnight and two AM. Every attacker wore the same gear. Every site had a spray-painted message." "They're organized and consistent," I observe. "Following a plan." "Someone's coordinating this," Penelope agrees. "Someone with resources and knowledge." My phone rings. Ethan again. "Please tell me you have good news," I answer. "I have news," Ethan h

Chapter: Chapter 188 - The Investigation Begins
Timothy's POV I wake up at dawn with a plan forming in my mind. Penelope is still asleep beside me, breathing softly. I watched her for a moment, grateful for her presence and strength. Then I carefully slip out of bed and head downstairs. My office is exactly as I left it last night. Laptop closed. Reports stacked neatly. I open everything and start working. The first priority is gathering information. I can't fight an enemy I don't understand. I pull up security footage from all three attack sites. Watch them repeatedly, looking for patterns. The attackers move with precision. Military training shows in every step. They know where cameras are positioned and avoid most angles. But not all. I freeze one frame. Enhance the image. There's a tattoo visible on one attacker's wrist. Partially hidden by their glove but visible for just a second. I screenshot it and send it to Ethan. Can you identify this tattoo? His response came five minutes later. Working on it, but it looks familiar

Penelope's POV "Desperate too," Elena adds. "Your leadership is gaining support. The reforms are working. They're running out of time to stop you." "So they'll escalate," I predict. "Take bigger risks." "Exactly," Elena confirms. "Which makes them more dangerous." Timothy pulls out his phone. "I'm calling an emergency pack meeting. Everyone needs to know what's happening." "Tonight?" Ethan asks. "Right now," Timothy corrects. "Send out the alert. Mandatory attendance for all ranking members." Ethan nods and starts texting. "What are you going to tell them?" I ask Timothy. "The truth," he says. "That we're under threat. The enemies of the pack are organizing so we need unity and vigilance." "Some won't like hearing that," I point out. "The ones who preferred your father's rule." "Then they can leave," Timothy says bluntly. "I won't force anyone to stay. But I won't tolerate sabotage either." His Alpha authority is showing. This is the leader the pack needs right now, someon

Chapter: Chapter 186 - The Honeymoon Attack
Penelope's POV The situation room is packed with pack security and council members and everyone looks tense. "What's going on?" Timothy asks, his Alpha voice coming out immediately. Ethan pulls up a map on the screen. "Three attacks in the past week. All on pack allies and trade partners." My stomach drops. "Three attacks? During our honeymoon?" "We didn't want to interrupt," Ethan says apologetically. "But they're escalating." He clicks through photos, they include burned buildings, destroyed vehicles, Injured wolves. "Who's responsible?" Timothy demands. "We don't know yet," Ethan admits. "No pack markings or identification, they move fast and disappear." "Rogues?" I suggest. "Organized rogues," Ethan corrects as he pulls up another image. "They're using military tactics, coordinated strikes with professional equipment." Timothy studies the map. "What's the pattern?" "All targets are connected to us," Ethan explains. "The Reeds' lumber business, the Ashtons' transport co

The Billionaire’s Broken Contract

The Billionaire’s Broken Contract

"My daughter needs heart surgery," Riley whispered, clutching four-year-old Lily to her chest. "I'll do anything." Brett Graham's steel-gray eyes never left hers. "Anything?" "Yes." "Then you'll be mine. Completely. For six months." Riley Plia is homeless with a dying daughter when ruthless billionaire Brett Graham offers her a deal: pose as his girlfriend for six months and earn $500,000 for her child's heart surgery. She thinks she's found salvation. Instead, she finds herself trapped in a contract written in cruelty. Brett treats her like property—controlling her meals, her words, even when she can see her daughter. He humiliates her at galas, dismisses her tears, and uses her desperation as a weapon. But beneath his ice-cold exterior lies a man terrified of abandonment, testing her loyalty through suffering because everyone he's ever loved has left him. As Riley endures his torment to save Lily, she discovers an inner strength that refuses to break. And Brett finds himself addicted to the one woman who won't shatter under his worst behavior. In a world where love is the ultimate luxury, can two damaged souls heal each other's wounds—or will Brett's need for control destroy the only real thing he's ever found? When the contract ends, will she stay... or will she finally run?

Chapter: Chapter 143: Epilogue
Riley pov Then he closed the space between us with a growl, his fingers ripping my skirt up my thighs and yanking my soaked panties aside in one brutal tug. The fabric tearing with a sharp rip that echoed in the locked room, before he freed his throbbing cock from his pants—thick, veined, and slick with pre-cum and lined it up against my dripping entrance. The head nudging my swollen folds apart as he surged forward in one merciless thrust, spearing me open inch by searing inch until he bottomed out balls-deep in my clenching heat.The sudden stretch ripping a wail from my throat that shattered into a raw “oh fuck, yes” as my walls fluttered and gripped him like a vise, milking the invasion while stars burst behind my eyesHis hands gripped my hips as his mouth devoured every sound I made and the table beneath us shuddered with the force of him pounding into me. He pulled back almost to the tip with a slick drag that made me sob, then slammed home again harder and deeper, the wet

Chapter: Chapter 142: The New Beginning
Riley's POVSix weeks later, I stand in the Graham Foundation's restored boardroom, watching Brett address the same people who tried to destroy us. The media circus has died down, the FBI investigation closed, and our reputation is slowly rebuilding."The Sterling-Jamson conspiracy cost us significant donors and public trust," Brett says, his voice steady. "But it also showed us who our real allies are."Patricia Wells shifts uncomfortably in her chair. She's been notably quiet since being forced to publicly apologize for her hasty actions."What's our current funding status?" asks Kim, who at least had the decency to look ashamed during Brett's reinstatement."Better than expected." I stand, pulling up financial reports on the wall display. "Our crisis response actually attracted new donors who believe in our mission."Brett's eyes catch mine across the room, warm with pride."Ms. Plia will be taking over as Chief Operations Officer effective immediately," Brett announces.The room g

Chapter: Chapter 141: The Truth Revealed
Riley's POVThe parking garage beneath our building feels like a war bunker as Brett and I huddle around his laptop, analyzing the doctored photo that might save our lives."The metadata doesn't lie." Brett's fingers fly across the keyboard. "This image was created three days before we met, but Jamson's claiming it shows our first encounter.""Which means he's been planning this for months." I lean closer to the screen, studying the technical details. "But why use a fake photo when he could have gotten real ones?"Brett goes very still. "Because he never had access to real surveillance from that day.""What do you mean?""The area where we actually met." Brett pulls up building schematics on his phone. "It doesn't have security cameras. I chose it specifically for privacy."My heart starts racing. "So he had to fabricate evidence of our first meeting.""And he got sloppy." Brett screenshots the metadata. "This is enough to discredit his entire case."I grab his arm. "We need to call D

Chapter: Chapter 140: The Counter-Attack
Riley's POVThe Graham Foundation boardroom feels like a courtroom as twelve faces stare at Brett across the mahogany table. I sit beside him, ignoring the disapproving glances from board members who clearly think I don't belong here."The situation is untenable," announces Patricia Wells, the Red haired board chair. "Channel 7's exposé has already cost us three major donors."Brett's jaw tightens. "The allegations are false.""That may be," Patricia continues coldly, "but perception is reality in our business. We need you to step down temporarily while this investigation proceeds.""No." My voice cuts through the tension.Every head turns toward me as Patricia's eyes narrow dangerously. "Excuse me, Ms. Plia?"I stand slowly, feeling Brett's surprise beside me. "I said no. You're not removing him from the foundation he built.""And you are?" Board member Kim's tone drips condescension."I'm the woman who's spent the last eight months learning every aspect of this foundation's operatio

Chapter: Chapter 139: The Investigation Begins
Riley's POVDetective Doris badge catches the light as she steps into our penthouse, her eyes scanning everything like she's already building a case. Behind her, two uniformed officers wait by the elevator."Mr. Graham, Ms. Plia." Doris voice is professional. "We need to discuss some serious allegations."Brett moves protectively in front of me, his body language shifting from vulnerable fiancé to guarded CEO in seconds. "What kind of allegations?""The kind that could put you in federal prison for twenty years." Doris settles into our white leather sofa without invitation. "Corporate espionage, fraud, racketeering."My stomach drops. Beside me, Brett's hands clench into fists."Riley, take Lily upstairs." His voice goes cold and commanding. "Now.""No." The word comes out stronger than I feel. "We handle this together."Brett's gray eyes flash with something between anger and fear. "This isn't a discussion.""Actually, it is." I step beside him,"I'm not running anymore."Doris watch

Riley's POVThe notification on Brett's phone glows ominously in the romantic lighting. I catch a glimpse of the sender's name before Brett quickly turns it face down."Who was that?" I ask, trying to keep my voice light.Brett's jaw tightens. "Nobody important.""On our engagement night?" I step closer, the emerald on my finger catching the light. "Brett, what aren't you telling me?""Riley, please." He reaches for me, but I step back. "Tonight is about us.""And us includes honesty." I cross my arms. "Who is Jamson?"The color drains from Brett's face. Behind us, Lily's laughter echoes from inside where she's celebrating with Emma, completely oblivious to the tension crackling between her parents."How do you know that name?" Brett's voice drops to a dangerous whisper."Because I saw the message preview." My heart pounds. "Something about 'the truth coming out' and 'consequences.'"Brett runs his hands through his hair, the gesture so familiar it breaks my heart. "It's complicated."
