Alpha’s Forbidden Obsession
He was supposed to be my fiancé’s father.
But after one unforgettable night, he made it clear he wanted me. And he would stop at nothing to make me his.
Olivia Jackson had spent her whole life doing what her parents wanted, including agreeing to marry Hudson Lancaster and become his Luna, the mate who would finally give her family the status they craved.
Then she learned the truth: Hudson never loved her. He only wanted her virginity, and once he had it, he planned to throw her away.
Heartbroken and furious, Olivia does something reckless. She spends one night with a stranger, certain she’ll never see him again.
The next morning, she walks into Hudson’s birthday party and comes face-to-face with the man from that night.
Alpha Grayson Lancaster. Hudson’s father. The one man she should never want.
Grayson knows exactly who she is ,knowing she’s promised to his son doesn’t make him want her any less. He doesn’t care about the engagement, the scandal, or what anyone will say. Since the night they met, she’s the only thing on his mind, and he’s determined to have her.
Olivia tries to stay away. But Grayson gives her something no one else ever has: the feeling of being loved, protected, chosen.
Just as she starts to believe she might finally choose the man she loves, a devastating secret about her past comes to light — one that ties her to Grayson in a way neither of them could have imagined.
Now she has to choose: the life her family forced on her, or the forbidden Alpha who refuses to let her go.
Because sometimes the person you’re never supposed to love is the one you can’t live without.

Chapter: Chapter 86OliviaI could not move my hand.The knocks came again. Three, slow, from inside the clay. Each one traveled up through my palm and into my arm and settled in my chest, where my wolf pressed hard against my ribs, wanting to answer."Olivia. Look at me.""I can't let go.""I know." Grayson's hands tightened over mine. "Brace."He tore my hand off the glaze.The seam gave a sharp crack and went dark. Grayson hissed through his teeth, and the room filled with the smell of scorched skin. He dropped to his knees on the carpet and held both hands away from his body. The vase sat on the quilt, green and ugly and silent. A line of sunlight had begun to creep across the carpet toward it.The knocking had stopped.I stared at my own palm. It was red but unmarked. His were another matter. The skin across both of them had gone white and split into blisters."Show me," I said."It is nothing.""Show me."He opened his hands. I took them carefully in mine. The blisters were already closing at the e

Chapter: Chapter 85OliviaThe door opened without a knock.The man stood in the frame with both hands folded on top of his cane. He did not step inside. His eyes went to the vase on the quilt, then to the hand Grayson still held clamped on my wrist, then to the space between our bodies. I had not noticed how little of it there was."You look disappointed, Alpha," he said."I am deciding which wall to put you through.""I would enjoy watching you try. After sunrise." He glanced at the window. The sky behind the glass had gone from gray to pale gold. "Forty minutes."Grayson moved half a step, and that was enough to put his shoulder in front of mine. I felt the heat of his back through my sleeve. I leaned around him."You said you would ask for something," I said."I will.""Ask now.""Olivia," Grayson said, very low."He gave his word. If he wants something, I want to know what it costs before the sun comes up."The man's smile widened. "Quick. I was told you would be.""Told by who?" Grayson said.The a

Chapter: Chapter 84OliviaThe man did not look at the empty cloth behind him. He looked at me."Come inside, Miss Jackson. Both of you." He stepped aside and gestured down the hall with one gloved hand. "Hector's men hold both ends of the street. Mine hold this house. You may meet his on the lawn, or you may rest here until sunrise.""And at sunrise?" Grayson said."I will ask for something. Until then, nobody in this house is touched. I have already given my word once this morning."I got to my mother before Grayson could stop me. He did not try. Her hands were cold. The cut under her jaw was shallow and had stopped bleeding. She gripped my wrist hard enough to hurt."Your father is in the kitchen," she whispered. "They tied him to a chair. He's alive."I listened. There, behind the kitchen wall, a heartbeat that was slow and heavy and angry. I almost laughed. My father was always angry long before he was afraid.Two men in gray stood at the foot of the stairs. They kept their eyes straight ahead. In t

Chapter: Chapter 83OliviaEve looked down at her feet.The boards were black and curling at the edges. A thin line of smoke rose between her toes. She did not step back. When she looked up, her smile had not moved."Careful, Grayson. Fire is fast. A knife is faster."He stopped with one boot half off the grass. I watched him put it down again. The cords in his neck stood out, and his breath came through his teeth in short pulls.Nobody spoke. The porch light hummed. The red line under my mother's jaw had started to run, thin and slow, into the collar of her robe.My mother's eyes found mine over the blade. She did not beg. She only looked at me, steady, and gave one small shake of her head. Do not.I stopped looking at Eve and listened to her. Her heartbeat was slow and even. Nothing in it changed when Grayson stepped, or when the boards smoked, or when my mother whimpered. A woman holding a blade to a throat should not have a pulse that calm.She was not afraid of him. She was waiting.My mother's hear

Chapter: Chapter 82OliviaThe photograph lay face down on the bed between us.Grayson had not spoken for almost a minute. I counted the seconds by the pulse in my throat. Twenty-three hours. That was everything the blue handwriting had left us."We leave in ten minutes," he said at last. His voice was quiet, almost easy. "You stay three steps behind me. You speak to no one but Ben or me. If I say run, you run. If I say shift, you shift. Do you understand?"I looked at him. The gold was back in his eyes, and it stayed longer each time."No."He turned his head slowly. "Olivia.""Beside you. That is the only way I go.""This is not the moment.""It is the only moment. We did it your way. A locked door and a key turned from outside. Look at what is lying on that bed."The room grew warmer. His fingers curled at his sides."He is not sealed anymore," he said. It came out low, close to a growl. "I need you to hear that. There is no seal. There is me, holding him, every second I am awake. The moment someone p

Chapter: Chapter 81OliviaThe knock came before I could look away from the glass.Two knocks, a pause, then one more. Grayson's knock. I turned off the bathroom light, and in the dark mirror my eyes were only eyes, brown and tired. I wiped my face with a towel I did not need and went to the door."It's me," he said.I turned the lock. He came in fast, shut the door behind him, and locked it with the same hand. Then he checked the window latch, the closet, and the space under the bed. Only after all of it did he look at me."How long have you done that?" I asked. "Checked every room.""Since I was nine."He said it flatly, and he did not explain.The gold was still in his eyes. I watched it leave from the center outward. It took almost a full minute, and when it was gone he looked tired in a way I had never seen on him."You felt her," he said."Yes.""I felt her too. I was standing in the hall giving orders, and something pushed back against my chest from up here.""I know what pushed."He dragged his p

The Vengeful Heiress Second Chance: Reborn To Ruin Them All
Nicole Garcia is a billionaire heiress who thought family was everything. Forced to marry a man she never loved, she let her stepsister's poison convince her that Damian only stayed out of obligation, that his devotion was a performance, and that she was doing him a kindness by pulling away and pushing him toward divorce. She couldn't terminate the marriage on her part, her family would consider it a huge betrayal. Finding solace in the man she believed was her best friend, Justin, only made her retreat further from Damian, certain she was setting him free rather than trapping him. So the manipulation continued, her sister and confidant using her trust to slowly dismantle Damian's company and his heart, until the night she let her guard down, and she got set on fire, tied to a chair in her own house.
The friend she had poured her heart into, who claimed to care for her, confesses all the terrible things they had done to her — and to Damian, through her — but she had been too blind to see it because of how thoroughly she'd been turned against her own husband. As she burned, she realized the truth: the husband she had been convinced to push away, Damian, was the only one who truly loved her. No matter how far apart they'd been driven, he always wanted her to be happier.
Now given a second chance at life, she plans to make everything right and correct her past mistakes, but she is hell‑bent on making each and every one of them pay. Believing she is too toxic to ever be a good wife, she steps away to fight her battles alone—inadvertently causing Damian to realize her worth and become hell-bent on winning back the diamond he thought he lost.

Chapter: Chapter Five : A failed attemptNicole GarciaThree days later, I was back in my office, after ignoring all the calls and texts from Justin and Allison who thought I was pranking them by keeping my distance.Everyone in the office looked up at me in surprise because I almost never came, and if I did, it was either to cause trouble or extort money from Damien and still make him look like shit in front of them. And they were bracing for more drama today.It was until I made my way towards my personal office and closed the door behind me that I could see them whispering to themselves from the glass, and pointing towards my office.My assistant, who had never been scared of my outbursts, knocked on the glass and walked in without waiting for an answer. She was holding a tablet and a cup of coffee."You look like crap," she said, setting the coffee on my desk."Thank you...""I mean it. You've been gone for weeks, and you look like you haven't slept a wink.""I haven't."She sat down across from me, crossed her legs, and

Chapter: Chapter four : Rock BottomNicole Garcia.The alcohol burned my throat as I finished downing the second bottle and moving on to the third. I just lost him. I just lost Damian. The only person who genuinely cared about me in this life. I just...I was on my third bottle when Maria found me.She must have heard the bottle clinking on the tiles from the kitchen. Or maybe she smelled the whiskey from down the hall. Either way, she appeared in the doorway of the living room with wide eyes and a trembling hand over her mouth."Ma'am… please, you need to stop."I didn't look at her. I just tipped the bottle again and let liquid rush down my throat, without stopping to wince or notice that I wasn't tasting it anymore. I just wanted to numb the pain I was feeling now. His back to me... Disappearing with his car into the night..."Ma'am." The maid took a step closer. "Please... you're going to hurt yourself.""Please, Maria." My voice cracked, more pleading than sharp. "Just... leave me alone. Please. I can't— not right

Chapter: Chapter Three : The DivorceNicole GarciaI rushed home immediately after snapping out of my self pity. I needed to make things right with him. I couldn't let it end like this without making him understand the truth."Damian!" I yelled his name loudly as soon as I got to the front steps of the estate. Once I got into the house, I began searching each room for him.I found him in the study not long after. The door was open, which meant he wanted me to find him, or he didn't care enough to close it, and I wasn't sure which one was worse. He was sitting at his desk, and in his hands he was holding a stack of papers tied with a red ribbon. My heart sank to my stomach.I knew what they were.Allison had drafted them months ago, back when she'd first started whispering in my ear about how unfair it was to keep Damian tied to a marriage he never truly wanted. He deserves someone who actually loves him, sis. Let him go. It's the kindest thing you could do for him. She'd had her own lawyer write them up, had them printed

Chapter: Chapter TWO : Alive AgainNicole Garcia.I was gasping for breath when I opened my eyes, thinking of the horror I was back in that room filled with smoke and fire."Nicole...Are you okay?" Warm hands reached out to steady me from stumbling.I took a deep breath, and instead of smoke, real and clean air filtered into my nostrils. I allowed my eyes to focus on where I was if this was the afterlife...My eyesight focused, and I found myself standing in a hallway that smelled mostly of bleach. When my cognitive senses came back, I realised that I was in a hospital.My hands went to my chest, to my arms, to my face. I touched, and there were neither burns nor blisters. My skin was smooth and whole and pale, and I didn't understand. I couldn't understand, because the last thing I remembered was getting buried under a pile of rubble as the fire raged on."Nicole."I heard the voice call my name again, roughly and a little tired, but I was familiar with it. I spun around immediately and my eyes locked on him.Damian w

Chapter: Chapter one : The BetrayalNicole GarciaThe smoke burned my lungs and every time I tried to breathe I got less air than the time before. My eyes were watering so badly I couldn't see straight, just the shapes of two people standing by the door, watching me die without trying to help."Please," I tried to say, but it came out as a cough, then I was coughing so hard that tears ran down my eyes.Allison laughed from the distance and hope suddenly filled my chest. My sister was here. She was the one who could help me... set me free from whatever this was..."Finally awake," she purred sweetly in a voice that I only ever heard when she was mocking someone or plotting something evil. "I was starting to think you'd sleep through the whole thing. That would have been disappointing."My wrists were tied to the arms of a wooden chair and my ankles were tied to its legs. The wood was hot underneath me, not burning yet but it was soon going to catch fire and burn me with it."Allison," I said, and my voice cracked in the
