Imogen Darcy is living a forbidden fantasy, secretly in love with her charismatic professor, Dante Salvatore. For two years, their stolen moments between lecture halls are a bittersweet promise of a future without secrets. But the fairytale ends the morning she wakes up alone, clutching a single, devastating post-it note. Her world instantly collapses. The press, tipped off by Dante's powerful family, brands her a gold-digging mistress. She is publicly shamed, expelled from Oxford, and disowned by her family—left utterly penniless with one final, life-altering secret: she's pregnant. Two years later, Dante returns, a man consumed by a vengeful rage. He has just discovered the monstrous betrayal orchestrated by his own mafia dynasty, a betrayal that forced him to shatter the woman he loved. He is too late to find her, but he finds the daughter he never knew. His quest for revenge uncovers his family's darkest secret: a brutal child trafficking ring. But his investigation leads him to a shocking safehouse, where the final piece of the puzzle is the broker's niece—a hardened, resilient Imogen. Now, to protect the family he has just found, Dante must bring them into the heart of the enemy's territory: his own gilded estate in Italy. Forced into close quarters, they must navigate their painful history, a web of deadly enemies, and a passion that never truly died. As a final, bloody war for control erupts, they are forced to confront a dangerous question: Can a love that was first built on secrets and then shattered by betrayal, be rebuilt on a foundation of vengeance and blood?

I thought the Mating Ceremony would be the happiest night of my life. Instead, the Alpha Prince — my fated mate and the star captain of the Silverfang Wolves — rejected me in front of the entire pack. “I reject you, Elara Voss,” Ryker said coldly. “A fat, weak Omega like you could never stand beside me.” Humiliated and heartbroken, I ran into the woods, ready to disappear forever. That’s when he appeared from the shadows. Dominic Garcia — the dangerously beautiful captain of our rival hockey team, the Blackwood Reapers. A man whose power and darkness made my wolf tremble. He offered me a devil’s deal: three days of complete submission to him… in exchange for destroying Ryker’s life. I said yes. Now I’m caught in a deadly game between four possessive Alpha hockey gods who all claim me as their mate. The ice is about to get a lot hotter, and my ex is going to regret ever throwing me away. Because this plus-size reject is done being weak.

He was never supposed to matter. Jace Ryder was a risk—reckless, ruined, and one mistake away from disappearing for good. Hockey was his only future… until the accident took it from him, leaving behind nothing but rumors and a reputation already falling apart. Nyra Hale doesn’t believe in accidents. She believes in strategy. With two months left before she’s forced into a life she didn’t choose, Nyra needs chaos—something powerful enough to fracture the perfect image her father built. And Jace? He’s exactly the kind of damage she can control. Her offer is simple: She rebuilds his career. He plays the role of her boyfriend. Publicly, they’re irresistible—fire and chemistry no one can ignore. Privately, it’s a negotiation neither of them fully controls. Because Jace isn’t as broken as she thought. And Nyra isn’t as untouchable as she pretends. What starts as a calculated game turns into something dangerously real—late nights, lingering touches, the kind of tension that doesn’t stay fake for long. And when buried truths surface—about the accident, about betrayal, about who’s been pulling the strings—the line between control and surrender begins to blur. Someone wanted Jace gone. Someone close. And as everything unravels, Nyra and Jace are forced to decide: Was this ever just a game… or were they always meant to lose themselves in it?

They sold me before I even knew I was for sale. My father owed the Rossi family a debt he couldn’t pay, and I was the only currency worth enough to save him. By sundown the next day, I was married to Damiano Rossi in a chapel full of armed men, his hand around mine, his voice low enough for only me to hear when he told me I belonged to him now. The estate I moved into isn’t a home. It’s a cage dressed up in marble and gold. Every wife before me disappeared behind these walls and never came out again. And my husband never bothers locking a single door, because he doesn’t need to lock away something he already owns. I thought surviving him would be the hardest part. I was wrong. A rival family believes my blood still owes them a debt written in violence, not vows. A man from my mother’s past resurfaces with a fortune built for exactly this moment, and a claim on me I never knew existed. And somewhere underneath Damiano’s cruelty is a man who took a bullet for me before he ever admitted he wanted me at all. I told myself I would never fall for the man who stole my choice. I was wrong about that too. Then I found out I was carrying his child. There’s no running from a war. There’s no running from a husband who owns half the city. And there’s no running from the one thing I never expected to feel for him.

Four years ago, Chen Xiu vanished without a trace, making Qing Han think that what she did is unforgivable. To him, she is the woman who murdered his unborn child, deceived his family, and fled with stolen money. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, Qing Han has spent years searching, not to reunite, but to make her pay. Now she’s back. But Chen Xiu is no longer the fragile girl he once dismissed. She returns as a brilliant doctor, composed, distant, and fiercely protective of her three-year-old son. When Qing Han finally finds her, he bigins his revenge. He traps her, corners her, and forces her into his world again, his cruelty sharper than ever. He wants to torture her and make her life unbearable. Yet something is wrong. The woman before him no longer begs. No longer loves him. Then, he finds out the truth. She didn't steal from him, she didn't murder his child. She only ran away to prevent him from taking her child away. For the first time in his life, Qing Han feels fear. Because the woman he broke has already learned how to live without him. And winning her back may be the one battle he cannot control.

“What’s a Luna worth if she can’t even see? A curse, not a blessing. If you’ll have her, Hunter, I’ll count it as a favor. Take her, and let’s toast to peace.” Rejected by the Alpha she sacrificed everything for, betrayed by the sister she trusted most—Lyra’s world collapsed the moment she lost her sight. Humiliated and discarded like a broken toy, she was handed to another Alpha as if her love and her vows meant nothing. But fate had other plans. Diego Hunter, the ruthless Alpha of Silver Blade, never expected to find his mate in his rival’s Luna. She was fragile, blind, and scarred… yet she was his. And when the truth of her bloodline emerges—that Lyra is the last Hexwolf, destined to wield power beyond imagination—she becomes the key to war, peace, and forbidden love. Between betrayal and redemption, hatred and desire, two Alphas will fight for her heart. One to own her. The other to treasure her. And Lyra must decide if love can rise from the ashes of betrayal… or if she was cursed by the Moon Goddess all along.

Fresh from a funeral and carrying wounds no one fully understands, she’s greeted by watchful grandparents, anxious relatives, and questions about a future that no longer feels like hers to decide.

Be my girlfriend." That's what Landon Cross said when he cornered me in the practice room. The quarterback. The enemy. The most beautiful man I've ever hated. He handed me a contract. Fifteen thousand dollars. Six months of pretending. My brother's heart surgery costs eighteen thousand. I have forty-seven dollars. I signed. No touching. No feelings. No telling anyone it's fake. We broke every rule within two weeks. Then his father found out. Gave him an ultimatum. My reputation or his future. He called me a gold digger in front of the whole school.

"I never stopped," he said. Now I have to decide: forgive the unforgivable, or walk away forever.

"Do you honestly think a cosmic mate bond will stop me from taking the Luna title?" Lyra sneered, twisting the silver heirloom ring that used to belong to my mother. "Blaine and I already shook hands on this marriage months ago. Fated or not, I am the only choice to rule this pack, and he loves me, not a wolfless glitch like you." She tapped a manicured nail against his chest, her eyes flashing with malice. "Go ahead, Blaine. Free yourself from this mistake." Blaine didn't even blink as he looked down at me. "I, Blaine Cross of the Eclipse pack, formally reject you, Isabella Brooks, as my fated mate and future Luna. You are stripped of your name and your place in our bloodline."

For centuries, the Moon Rocks Pack has lived under a curse: no Alpha of their bloodline may ever have a mate, and no Luna will ever rise beside them. Lyra Thompson was eight years old when her world burned. A rogue wolf attacked her pack, leaving flames, smoke, and chaos in its wake. Her parents’ last command echoed in her ears: Run. Find the Moon Rocks. Too small to fight, too young to shift, Lyra fled into the night — a lost pup alone in a world that had already taken everything from her. The Moon Rocks Pack took her in, raising her as one of their own. They gave her safety. They gave her guidance. But even among wolves, fear has a way of lingering, and Lyra carries the scars of that night — a fear of fire, a wariness of rogue wolves, and a quiet, unshakable sense of loss. Now, one week before her eighteenth birthday, the pack prepares for Oscar Knight’s ascension as Alpha. Strong, disciplined, and raised to believe he will never have a mate, Oscar has accepted the curse as his burden. Until the full moon rises. Until Lyra turns eighteen. The bond that should not exist ignites between them — fierce, undeniable, and powerful enough to shatter a centuries-old curse. But destiny comes with consequences, and the rogue who destroyed Lyra’s past may still be hunting. The Moon Rocks Pack was never meant to have a Luna. Until her.
