​The moment the door clicked shut behind Ethan, the sterile quiet of the infirmary became deafening. I stared at the empty space where he’d stood, my pulse still echoing with his last words: You can hate me all you want. At least you will be safe.

Safe. The word twisted like a knife, the tears that I had held back finally broke free, silent and scalding. Nothing about everything here feels like safety. In this world, freedom meant confinement. I can't believe I was freed from one madman on

  • Accidentally Claimed    Aurora's Compliance

    NATASHA Ever since I first laid eyes on Ethan Blackwood, I knew I’d hit the jackpot. ​I’ve always loathed the idea of a fated mate. The thought of being biologically shackled to one person for the rest of my life sounded like a prison sentence. My plan had been simple: reject whoever the universe threw at me, run my father’s company, and enjoy a good fuck every once in a while. No strings, no "forever" nonsense, and definitely none of that suffocating emotional drama.​My father knew it. The pack knew it too. They’d tried for years to pair me with influential wolves, heirs, betas, rising alphas to secure alliances. Every attempt ended the same way: disappointment on their side, boredom on mine. I didn’t bow. I didn’t pretend to care. I’m a beautiful woman, I have the sharp mind and the curves to prove it, and I don't bow to anyone. But my wolf, Lily, is a different breed of wild. She doesn't want romance; she wants power. She has always been hungry for every male that crossed our pat

  • Accidentally Claimed    Entitled Luna

    Once she was introduced, Natasha stepped seamlessly into the role of the long-awaited Luna, mark or no mark. She moved through the pack house with practiced confidence, issuing gentle corrections, offering suggestions that sounded like care, and accepting deference as though it were already owed. To most, she was warmth and grace embodied, poised, attentive, undeniably fitting. Respect came easily. Affection followed soon after.In public, Natasha was impeccable. Her smiles were effortless, her voice soft and soothing. She treated Aurora with an almost performative kindness, complimenting her posture, praising her manners, brushing invisible dust from her sleeves as if the gesture itself were proof of affection. She spoke often of the girl’s “remarkable maturity,” always within earshot of others. Anyone watching would have seen a patient future Luna extending olive branches to a withdrawn child.Aurora answered politely. She nodded when addressed. She neither resisted nor leaned in. S

  • Accidentally Claimed    Big Girl

    After that day, Aurora learned how to disappear without leaving. She stopped wandering into Ethan’s meetings. Stopped perching beside him during briefings, and stopped offering those quiet, unsettling observations that once made grown men pause and rethink. When Ethan was present, she spoke only when spoken to, and even then, carefully, as if every word cost something.He told himself it was for the best. Silence was safer than the look in her eyes, the one that felt too old, too wounded for a child her age.One afternoon, after an especially long council meeting, Jason and Liam asked for a private word.“With all due respect, Alpha,” Jason began, his voice lowered as he chose his words with tactical precision, “but I’ve noticed the CEO of Voss Dynamics has been getting… very close to you lately.”​Ethan didn’t flinch. He merely shrugged, his eyes remaining fixed on the document in his hands, though the ink had long since blurred into a meaningless grey.​“It's about time,” Liam cut i

  • Accidentally Claimed    Torn

    ​Ethan didn’t slow down after leaving Aurora with Liam. He drove with a cold, jagged purpose, Shadow paced restlessly beneath his skin, the bond tugged at him again, insistent, electric, and agonizingly familiar, pulling him toward a destination his heart refused to name, but his instincts knew by heart.​'You dropped the kid and ran,' Shadow rumbled, the voice in his head not unkind, but brutally honest. 'You know exactly where you’re going.'​“I’m going to make this stop,” Ethan muttered, his knuckles white as he gripped the steering wheel. “Whatever this connection is, I'm ending it.”​Shadow laughed, a low, knowing sound that vibrated in Ethan's chest. 'Liar.'​He pulled up beneath the monolithic glass-and-steel tower of Voss Dynamics. Natasha Voss didn’t strike him as the kind of woman who ever left her work behind, so he found her still at the office. Security barely slowed him; in this city, his name opened doors with the same crushing force as his Alpha command.​Natasha was a

  • Accidentally Claimed    Fated

    Five Years LaterAurora Blackwood was a force of nature wrapped in curls and confidence. At five years old, she ruled both the pack and the human estate with absolute authority, an authority her father surrendered to gladly. She was too small to command the kind of attention she did, but there was something in her presence that bent rooms toward her. A sharp intelligence behind bright, observant eyes. A restless energy that never truly slept. Ethan had tried, at first, to be firm. To be an Alpha, not just a father but he failed spectacularly. Aurora had him wrapped around her little fingers so tightly the entire pack knew it. If she wanted a book, the library opened. If she wanted to sit in on meetings meant for seasoned warriors and corporate executives, she sat, on Ethan’s lap, no less, listening with frightening focus. If she wanted answers, the elders explained. And if she wanted a story before bed, the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack canceled meetings without blinking. Ethan Black

  • Accidentally Claimed    New Beginning

    The ICU doors slid open with a soft hiss. The room was dim, machines humming softly, their steady beeps was the only proof of life. Too quiet, too fragile. Ethan’s breath hitched the moment he saw her.Aurora lay impossibly small beneath a web of tubes and wires, her tiny chest rising unevenly. Her skin looked too pale, lips faintly tinged blue. Every alarmed instinct in him roared awake. His knees nearly gave out.Martha stopped just inside the doorway. “She’s been fighting,” she said gently. “But she’s tired.”Ethan stepped closer, slowly, as if any sudden movement might break her. His hands trembled at his sides.“So small,” he whispered.She stirred at the sound of his voice. Her lashes fluttered, dark eyes cracking open just a fraction. A weak sound slipped past her lips, not quite a cry, and not quite a breath.The monitors wavered. Ethan’s heart slammed painfully against his ribs.“Oh Goddess,” he breathed. “Aurora… I’m here.”He reached out, hesitating for a heartbeat before c

  • Accidentally Claimed    Show Me

    Shadow kissed her neck gently at first… then claimed her mouth with a slow, fierce hunger. The kiss was consuming, distracting, and utterly possessive, like he wanted to swallow every protest before she could even form it.Ruby yielded immediately. The burning intensity of Shadow’s mouth melted her

    The air in the council hall was thick with exhaustion and the sharp, metallic scent of fresh blood. Ethan and his senior warriors had just returned from the western border, where they had successfully carried out a brutal, comprehensive massacre of the persistent rogue force. The tension was still

    After the girl stumbled into Liam’s arms, the rogues began to melt back into the forest too quickly, too easily. Suspicion prickled at the back of Ethan’s mind, but they hadn’t breached the border, and the last thing he wanted was to waste more blood on an uncertain skirmish. Still, he wouldn’t ris

    For a long moment, there was nothing but the sound of their ragged breathing, the way their bodies trembled in the aftermath. Ethan collapsed beside her, pulling her into his arms, his lips pressing against her forehead in a kiss that was somehow both tender and possessive. Ruby melted against him,
