Reader discretion is strongly advised. **** I was thirteen years old when the most feared Alpha rode into our small village. My sister was fourteen, but already marked by destiny. The Alpha was sixteen, but whispered about in fearful tones by warriors twice his age. They described him as cruel, cold-blooded, and untouchable. He took my sister's hand, promising protection, loyalty, and a future bound in blood and power, bound by an old oath sworn between our fathers. Our father died many years ago, and the promise was all that kept us from ruin. But none of this would happen because two days after her eighteenth birthday, my sister's lifeless body was discovered in the depths of our favorite lake, broken and surrounded by unanswered questions. The village whispered murder while the Alpha offered no tears or answers, only silence. **** A year later, bound by the same promise, I stood at the altar, surrounded by wolves who bowed their heads in terror, forced to pledge forever to the same man who promised my sister the world, but there were no such promises for me, only loud, cold silence.

“Why do you suddenly want out of this marriage? Who the fuck are you screwing, you dumb bitch?!” “I'm not screw-” I tried to explain, but he was already on me and I screamed as he dragged me up by my neck, his hand so tight on my throat I couldn’t breathe. “Who is it?!” he growled. “Who the fuck would dare!” ---- In a world absent the mate bond, alliances were formed through blood, power, and betrayal rather than fate. Makena Blackwell was born into the mafia's lowest-ranking position, promised at birth to a powerful heir in exchange for her family's survival. She was ready to marry him. But he was ready to destroy her. On the night she was meant to die, however, something impossible happened. A man rose from the icy steel trays of her father’s morgue. He was a stranger, with no memory, no name, and no pulse. And when their gazes met, fate spoke the word they never expected to hear in their lifetime, echoing so loudly in their souls it shook the very fabric of their being. “Mate!” The man the world left for dead wasn’t just anyone; he was the dread every mafia house feared, and he was hers. She was promised to a prince of power… but fate gave her the king of the dead.

“Fuck! You’re so thick… give me every inch of that beautiful cock.” The other person's voice echoed right then, and I froze as the moonlight spilled over their profile. Blonde hair, damp and messy… my brother, Hunter. No! My body stilled as if my heart had stopped beating, my lips numb as I whispered their names. “Nikolai? Hunter?” *** With her job covering the cost of a luxurious week-long year-end retreat, Reva was looking forward to a well-deserved vacation that she hoped would provide a reset and opportunity to relax. But after a wild night of partying, she awoke to discover her husband missing from their bed. Disoriented and hungover, she stumbled through the villa, drawn in by strange sounds. Following the sounds, her world collapsed at the sight of her husband and brother tangled in the dark. *** Humiliated and shattered, Reva nearly made a fatal decision—until she was saved by the last man she ever expected: Dr. Levi Price—her boss. The brilliant neurosurgeon and cold, untouchable heir to the powerful Price medical empire presented Reva with a shocking revenge plan. “Let's pretend we're dating and show him something he never expected to see." Reva knew it was reckless. Dangerous even. But she quietly said, “It's the craziest thing I've ever done, but let's do it and show the bastard." A fictitious relationship between boss and employee should have been straightforward. Just a performance. *** But what happens when revenge turns into obsession, and fake love becomes something neither of them can escape?

He straddled me, his hips swirling in slow, maddening circles. His body was right there, pressing into mine, and I couldn’t escape it; I didn’t want to. His hands found mine and guided them to his chest, and when my palms touched his warm skin, I was gone. My pulse was a blur of frantic beats pounding in my ears, drowning out the crowd's cheers and whistles. With his face inches from mine, Alec leaned in. His breath ghosted over my lips, his smile, cocky, knowing, playful, and somehow tender all at once. “You okay there?” he asked with an amused tone, and I opened my mouth, desperate to say something—anything—but nothing came out. My throat was dry, my skin was on fire and my mind was completely blank. All I could do was stare at him, completely mesmerized by how his body moved against mine and that wicked smirk on his lips. Before I knew it, heat pooled low in my belly, spreading downward, and I instinctively clenched my thighs together to stop the throbbing that ignited between my legs, but it was too late as I dampened the soft leather.

Raven Chesterfield’s world collapsed overnight when her roommates caught her having a wet dream about a famous NFL star. Desperate to escape their cruel mocking laughter, she ran blindly into the middle of the road, where she was nearly run over by the very man who had her fleeing in the dead of night. Lyall Kingsley, the NFL’s unstoppable alpha werewolf known as The Wolf, had everything the world dreamed of, fame, fortune, a record-breaking career, and a perfect marriage to his high school sweetheart, Sable Cross, his fated mate. After Lyall anonymously paid for Raven’s accommodation, removing her from the mercy of her cruel friends, she wanted to repay his kindness by becoming the surrogate he and his wife desperately needed. She never expected that carrying his heir would not only expose her to a world she had only read about in novels but would also reveal that her entire life had been a lie. The moment Raven entered Lyall's world, secrets began to emerge. The bond he had always trusted began to feel different, and the life he had built began to crumble as the fire between him and Raven became impossible to ignore. Caught between the woman he had loved his entire life and a bond that shouldn't exist, Lyall faced the most difficult decision of his life: protect the career he had worked so hard to build, or risk losing everything for a love that could destroy it all.
