THE ALPHA'S SURROGATE MATE
Mira Vale, twenty-four, has spent her entire life invisible in the branch of Silverpine Pack. When debts leave her desperate, she accepts a surrogacy contract with Alpha Roman Draven of Blackthorn, whose bloodline is compatible with hers. The rules are simple: carry his child, live in his mansion, accept the money, and leave after birth. Falling in love is forbidden.
But Blackthorn is not what Mira expects. Roman is cold and grieving, yet around her, his walls crumble. Their attraction becomes impossible to ignore, and Roman’s jealousy appears before either admits their feelings. Then Mira’s wolf whispers one word: mate.
As her pregnancy progresses, changes awaken within Mira. Her powers emerge, alarming healers and revealing a truth. Mira is Moonborn, an extinct bloodline whose child could unite the supernatural world. She was never chosen for compatibility.
When they discover they are fated mates, happiness turns to danger. Roman’s first mate was murdered, and someone inside Blackthorn had been betraying him. As rival Alphas and packs move to claim Mira and her unborn child, they must fight together.
Their journey exposes a conspiracy and awakens Mira’s power. Together, they discover the prophecy’s true meaning: their child is destined to unite the werewolf world.

Chapter: AFTER THE WORDSCHAPTER 22 "What does that mean?"Roman didn't answer right away.The silence after his words felt louder than anything he could have said."Do you mean you don't want me to leave because of the baby?""No.""Because of the contract?""No."I swallowed."Then because of me?"He looked at me.Something raw and unguarded crossed his face before he could hide it."I shouldn't have said it like that.""So you didn't mean it?""I didn't say that.""Then what are you saying?"He exhaled slowly, like the question cost him something."I don't know what happens after the contract. I don't want you making decisions based on one conversation in a garden.""I can't build a future around something you're going to regret tomorrow."I crossed my arms."I'm not asking you to promise me forever. I'm asking whether what you said was real."His eyes held mine."It was real.""Then why does it feel like you're trying to take it back?"He was quiet.I waited."Is this about the baby?"His expression tigh

Chapter: GROWING ATTACHMENTCHAPTER 21 I caught myself smiling at nothing halfway through braiding my hair, remembering the dry look Roman had given me the night before when I'd beaten him at chess for the third time in a row."You're cheating somehow.""You're just bad at this."I'd laughed.He'd almost smiled.I stopped braiding and stared at myself in the mirror.I hadn't counted the weeks left on the contract in days.I used to do it every morning, a small ritual of survival. A reminder that every uncomfortable meal, every awkward silence, every reminder that I was temporary had an expiration date.Now I couldn't remember the last time I'd bothered.That should have scared me more than it did.Roman was already at the table when I came downstairs, which had stopped being unusual weeks ago."You're smiling," he said, not looking up from his coffee."I'm allowed to smile.""You're smiling like you're planning something.""Maybe I'm planning to beat you at chess again tonight."That earned me the almost-smile,

Chapter: GUARDEDCHAPTER 20 Two men I didn't recognize stood outside my door."Who assigned you?" I asked."Alpha Roman's orders.""Why?"Neither answered.One shifted his weight. The other kept his eyes fixed somewhere over my shoulder.I stared at them for another second before turning away.If Roman wanted to surround me with guards, he could at least have the courage to explain why.I found him in his study twenty minutes later, still surrounded by the reports from the night before."Why are there two guards outside my door?""Because you're not safe.""That isn't an answer."He set down the paper in his hand."After what happened in Lyra's study, I'm not taking chances.""You told me to be careful. You never told me what I was supposed to be careful of. Now I have strangers standing outside my room, and I still don't know why.""It's necessary.""That's not a reason. That's an order."I crossed my arms."I'm not a prisoner.""I know.""Then stop treating me like one."He didn't answer immediate

Someone forced open the locked drawer."The color drained from Roman's face."What was taken?""We don't know yet. Nothing else appears to have been disturbed.""Who found it?""The night guard. Ten minutes ago."Roman was already moving."Seal the wing. No one in or out.""I'm coming," I said."No."He didn't even look back."You don't get to decide that for me."That stopped him.For one second, the man from the garden the man who had almost kissed me collided with the Alpha who needed to take control of the situation.Something shifted behind his eyes."Stay beside me," he said finally. "Don't touch anything.""I know how to follow instructions."The corner of his mouth almost lifted despite everything.Then the moment was gone.The study door showed no damage.The lock hadn't been broken.But the drawer beneath the desk had been forced open, splint

ACCEPT ME OH KINGDOM
Elara Veyne has spent fifteen years as the Silver Moon Kingdom’s living punishment. Once the daughter of Lord Alaric Veyne, the kingdom’s trusted Beta Commander, she was condemned to servitude after her father was executed for treason, and her mother died soon after. Mocked as the Traitor’s Daughter, Elara is considered even more worthless because she has never shifted.
Everything changes on her eighteenth birthday during the Sacred Moon Ceremony. When Elara touches the ancient Moonstone, it turns black before exploding with silver light. A mysterious voice declares that the First Moon Blood has returned. Her mate bond awakens, revealing her destined mate as Alpha King Kael Draven, ruler of the Seven Territories and the most powerful wolf alive.
But Kael publicly rejects her. Bound by politics to Princess Evelyne, he has been warned that the Veyne bloodline must never reach the throne.
Then ancient wolves begin bowing to Elara, forgotten relics respond to her touch, and a voice calls from within her sealed wolf.
Determined to uncover the truth behind her father’s death, Elara discovers that Alaric was never a traitor. He uncovered that the current dynasty stole the throne from the First Moon Queen’s bloodline and that Elara is its last living heir.
As Kael learns the truth, his hostility becomes protection, partnership, and eventually love. But Elara struggles to trust the man who rejected her when she was powerless.
When the council orders her execution, Elara breaks her wolf’s seal. Every Alpha kneels.
She reclaims her father’s honour, destroys the corrupt council, and takes the crown by choicenot fate. Only then does she choose Kael freely.

Chapter: A Difficult DecisionChapter 137 "No."Elara looked up from the map."You're not sending that many soldiers.""I have to.""To the coast?""Yes.""The capital won't have enough left to hold if you do."We'd been arguing for nearly an hour.Neither of us had moved.The coastal signal had gone dark minutes after we'd learned the enemy was moving.Now, every decision felt like it was already too late."If the capital falls, the war is over," I said."If the coast falls, we lose more than territory."Elara's voice sharpened."We lose every pack that trusted us enough to send warriors there. Ashfall. Bramhollow. Renwick's people. I spent weeks convincing them we wouldn't abandon them the moment it became inconvenient.""And if the coast is exactly what they're using to pull us away from here?"She fell silent.She didn't have an easy answer.Neither did I."Send limited reinforcements," I said. "Keep the main force near the capital and border.""And when the coastal defenders send word that they can't hold?"

Chapter: RegroupingChapter 136 "They'll attack the border again," a commander insisted, tapping the map. "We hold, we reinforce, and we finish what we started.""They already tested the border once," another countered. "Why walk into the same wall twice?"I stepped closer to the table."If you were attacking us, would you hit the strongest point twice?"Silence.Nobody had a good answer.Torin leaned over the map."They tested our response times. How quickly the packs coordinated. How fast Ren's scouts exposed their positions.""They saw exactly how we fight," I said. "And then they withdrew before committing anything close to their full strength.""So they're regrouping to hit us harder," the first commander argued."Or that was never the plan."Evelyne stepped forward, a bundle of reports in her hands."You're assuming the border wasn't the objective," someone said."I am.""What else would it be?"She spread the reports across the table."Their supply movement doesn't match a force preparing for a

Chapter: CasualtiesChapter 135 "We held the border."Torin fell into step beside me.I looked at him."How many didn't come back?"He hesitated."Still counting.""Then let's count faster."A commander approached with a report already in his hands."We need to reposition the eastern units before""Not now."He stopped."I want to see the wounded.""My Lady, the strategic situation""Can wait."I looked at the report in his hand."Names."His expression changed."I want the wounded treated, and I want the names of everyone we lost."He nodded."Yes, Lady Elara."The infirmary tents smelled of blood and burnt herbs.Healers moved between cots, carrying bandages, water, medicine.Somewhere nearby, someone was crying.I tried not to listen.I failed.A warrior with his arm bound in bloodied cloth recognized me and attempted to sit upright."You don't need to stand," I said quickly.He ignored me."We held."His voice was weak but proud.I looked at the bandage."At what cost?"He didn't answer immediately.

Chapter: A Pattern of TrustChapter 132 I was packing for Thornwood when the first messenger arrived."They've requested a meeting," he said.I looked up."Thornwood?""No."He hesitated."Bramhollow."I blinked."They contacted us?""Yes.""Why?""Word traveled from Ashfall."I stared at him."How many?""Three packs so far. All asking to speak with you."Three.It wasn't an army.It wasn't even close.But it was something.That didn't mean they trusted me."Maybe not," the messenger said, almost as though he'd read my thoughts. "But they want to hear you."That distinction mattered more than he knew.Bramhollow's Alpha didn't waste time."How many warriors can the crown actually provide?""Enough to matter. Not enough to make you dependent on us.""Who controls battlefield decisions on my territory?""You do.""And if we lose?"I held her gaze."Then we lose together."Her expression tightened."You're not asking for loyalty.""I'm asking for coordination. Intelligence. Mutual defense. Nothing more than what

Chapter: The Vision’s WarningChapter 130 "What happened?"Kael was already crossing the room toward me."I need everyone to hear this.""Are you hurt?" Torin asked."No."I looked around the room.Kael. Yssa. Evelyne. Torin. Ren.Every face was waiting."But I saw something I don't think I was supposed to see."Kael stopped in front of me."Another vision?""The same one."I swallowed."Only this time, I saw more."Evelyne straightened."Did it show the enemy's next move?""No.""An attack?" Torin asked."No."I looked at Ren."Something about the First Moon Queen."His expression changed immediately."And the Hollow Court."The room went still.Yssa was the first to speak."Tell us everything. From the beginning."I closed my eyes, searching through the fragments."She was fighting it. The darkness. The manifestation whatever the Hollow Court actually is."I opened my eyes again."I assumed she won because she was powerful enough to defeat it.""And?" Kael asked."That wasn't how she won."Silence."Then how?"
