Je suis née une oméga fragile, mais mon don de prophétie a fait de moi la Sainte des Meutes du Nord. Le Conseil des Anciens a exigé que je choisisse un compagnon parmi les Alphas des grandes meutes. L'Alpha que j'ai choisi était destiné à conduire le Nord à la victoire et à être couronné Roi des Alphas. J'ai choisi l'Alpha Kane sans hésitation. Il m'avait sauvé la vie une fois. Le jour de notre cérémonie de lien, j'ai rougi et tremblé lorsqu'il a enfoncé ses crocs dans mon cou. Mais au moment où nous avons été liés, son véritable amour Scarlett, sa Bêta d'enfance, est devenue folle de jalousie. Elle a tenté de m'empoisonner, et pour son crime, les Anciens l'ont exilée. Elle est morte sur la route. Et moi ? J'ai utilisé mes prophéties pour aider Kane à gagner la guerre, pour le mettre sur le trône. Après son couronnement, il a plongé une lame d'argent dans mon cœur. Il m'a assassinée. « Pourquoi ne l'as-tu pas sauvée ?! Pourquoi ne l'as-tu pas sauvée ?! » C'est seulement là que j'ai compris. Il m'avait détestée depuis toujours. J'ai rouvert les yeux… et j'étais de retour. De retour au jour où je devais choisir mon compagnon Alpha. Il se tenait devant moi, arrogant comme toujours. Il n'a perdu la tête que lorsqu'il a découvert que j'avais choisi un Alpha maudit. Je l'ai regardé s'agenouiller, implorant mon pardon. Mais dans cette vie, il n'y aurait aucune prophétie venant de moi. Voyons maintenant comment il survivra à la guerre.

What exactly does it mean to be his bride? *** Every year, in each of the seven villages that made up the great Kingdom of Ignas, a Choosing Ritual was conducted. During this Chosing Ritual, one of the ladies in the village would be chosen to be the dreaded Dragon King's Bride. No one knew exactly why the ritual was being performed every year or what happened to the brides that had been chosen in the past. Was he turning them into slaves? Feeding them to his dragon? Or was he... feeding on them? That couldn't be ruled out. After all, there were rumours that the king wasn't like them, that he wasn't human. Yet the question relentlessly troubled the people's heart. What was he using them for?! But they dared not question the King, afraid of what fate daring to go against him would be. Anyways, none of these was Belladonna's business. Although it was her village's turn to produce a bride this year, she was certain she wouldn't get chosen. Why? Well, because she had a plan and she was absolutely certain it wouldn't fail her... or would it?

Billie was once perceived as unattractive; she was overweight and had a facial burn that made her look different. With her chubby face, she often faced criticism.

However, Billie had fallen in love with the mysterious man who had helped her through her struggles. Now she faces a choice: Will she give her ex-boyfriend a second chance, or will she embrace the feelings she has for the handsome man who has been quietly protecting her from the shadows?

"Dans un État où les loups-garous sont des armes militaires, Elara survit en silence. 'Muette' - dépourvue de forme animale - elle est reléguée aux archives du QG des Loups, méprisée par ceux dont elle entend secrètement les pensées. Son don interdit : apaiser les esprits tourmentés des plus féroces guerriers-lycans. Sa vie bascule lorsque l'unité d'élite commandée par Rhyse, un Alpha au bord de la folie meurtrière, revient d'une mission catastrophique. Dans la panique générale, une impulsion irrésistible pousse Elara à CHUCHOTER. D'un seul mot mental, elle éteint la rage de Rhyse, sauvant la base... et se condamnant. Car ce premier contact réveille un Pacte ancien, scellé entre leurs lignées sanguines et trahi des siècles plus tôt. Désormais liés par une magie plus forte que leurs volontés, ils n'ont d'autre choix que de s'allier. Le Haut-Conseil voit en Elara un outil précieux à contrôler. Les Puristes, une abomination à éliminer. Et dans l'ombre, des marginaux aux pouvoirs étranges voient en eux l'espoir d'un monde nouveau. Entre manipulations politiques et attaques sanglantes, leur seul refuge pourrait bien être l'un dans l'autre - au risque de réveiller un amour aussi dangereux que le pouvoir qui les unit. Car le véritable Pacte n'était pas un asservissement, mais un équilibre : le Chuchoteur calme la Bête, et le Loup protège le Chuchoteur. Ensemble, ils doivent redécouvrir cette vérité avant que leurs ennemis ne brisent définitivement le lien entre leurs peuples."

In her past life, when a truck barreled toward them, Lillian Hogan instinctively pushed Elton Ruiz out of harm's way. She paid the price with both her legs crushed. When she woke up in the hospital, the aloof, noble man lowered his head for the first time. Standing by her bedside, he promised to marry her. Tearfully, she accepted the proposal from the man she'd loved since she was eight. But after the wedding, Elton often stayed out all night. His attitude toward her grew cold and harsh. When an infection from her injuries left her on the brink of death, the billionaire didn't spare a single penny for her care. "I never thanked you for saving my life," he said. "Our marriage was a mistake from the start. Let me go." His face grim, he pulled out her oxygen tube. Lillian's eyes widened in shock. In the agony of betrayal and heartbreak, she took her last breath. If she could do it all over again, she vowed never to love Elton again.

I was chosen to be the fiancée of Lorenzo, the Mafia’s heir. But at a family gala, Lorenzo was openly pursued by Chiara, the daughter of an arms dealer. Chiara wasn’t like the other rule-abiding debutantes.She tore through the streets in a modified sports car, used a military-grade combat knife to cut her cigars, and drank the harshest whiskey neat.There was an untamed wildness about her, a fire Lorenzo couldn’t look away from. He complained to the family elders, “How can a woman like that possibly be our Madre and run this entire family?” His words dripped with disdain for her recklessness, yet his eyes were glued to her, tracking her every move as she raised her glass. Then, on Lorenzo’s birthday, he announced his intention to make Chiara his mistress. Chiara refused.”The women of my family are wives, never mistresses.And my husband’s heart must belong only to me.” Lorenzo came to me, his voice hesitant.”Alessia, it’s just a title.I need you to give it to Chiara.Please? She doesn’t understand our family’s traditions, and she’s making a scene about marrying me.We just need to pacify her for now.Even if she marries me, you will still be the one to manage the family’s affairs.” As I stood trying on my wedding gown, a sharp crystal bead on the bodice pierced my finger.A single drop of blood bloomed against the pure white satin. The dress was ruined, but the wedding would go on. Since he chose someone else to be his wife, I will become his Madre.

"Marry me, Isabella. Not for love, but for survival." Alexander Steele’s offer is Isabella Moore’s only way out. Her fashion business is failing, her mother’s medical bills are piling up, and betrayal has left her broken. Bound by a fragile agreement, they step into a world of buried secrets and growing danger. The lines between trust and deception blur as old enemies resurface and hidden truths threaten to destroy everything. Can they fight through the lies and find love, or will their alliance shatter under the weight of betrayal?

‘Accept me and I will show you heaven’ he licked his lips with a sexy smirk..... ‘What if I don't' I questioned, turning away..... ‘Then’ he smirked, pulling my face towards his, 'you should know there is no other choice when I am our mate, it is either you willingly give yourself or I take you, either ways, you will be mine’ he growled and I knew I was in danger. My mate was unreasonable and possessive.

When my dad died, my husband was at the airport—picking up another girl. She looked like me. Only difference? He actually loved her. I was just the stand-in. Three years of marriage? It cost me my dad... and every last shred of self-respect. But at least I finally saw him for who he was. I left the country in a soaked dress. That's when it hit him—what it really meant to lose. "Emily, I was wrong!" "Daniel Wilson, it's too late." Stand-ins don't get love. They get a new beginning.

As Cain Knight's mate, I watched him lead Elias Sinclair, his childhood sweetheart, onto the stage at the Black Moon Pack's annual charity gala. "In recognition of Miss Sinclair's outstanding contributions to our community," Cain announced, his voice a glacial shard as his eyes found me, "I have decided to grant her the title of this year's 'Charity Ambassador.'" An honor that had, for years, been bestowed upon the Luna by her Alpha. He shattered tradition just to humiliate me. Under the pitying gazes of the entire pack, I did not cry. I did not question him. I simply straightened my spine, set down my champagne flute, and silently turned to leave. "Let her go," I heard Cain sneer behind me. "She won't last half the night. She'll come crawling back like a beaten dog, begging for my forgiveness." A wave of derisive laughter erupted behind me. "After all these years, Lupita still uses the same tired tricks to get Alpha Cain's attention!" "I bet she'll be on her knees, pleading for Alpha Cain's forgiveness before sunrise!" But they didn't know. The person waiting to spirit me away was already at the door. This time, I would vanish from this gilded cage forever.
