Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova

What happens when the past comes back to haunt you... but prettier? --- Eleven years ago, Anastasia Hayes ran from Pack Eviscera with blood on her hands and guilt burning in her throat, swearing she'd bury the past beneath ambition and cold distance. Now a rising lawyer with power in her stride and secrets buried underneath a cold exterior, Ana thinks she's untouchable. Until her heat hits, wrong place, worst time, in a hotel room far from home. Desperate and delirious, she does the unthinkable. She marks a Dominant Alpha. A stranger. In a world where Omegas are silenced, sold, and shamed, claiming an Alpha could get her killed or worse… claimed back. But what she doesn't know is: The Alpha isn’t a stranger. He’s the one person she was never meant to touch. The boy she left behind, now a man; and not just any man, but the Bratva’s king. What could possibly go wrong? Right? *** “Tit for tat peaches.” he murmured, dragging his thumb over my bottom lips, “You let me do what I want, where I want it, how I want it, and I'll do what you ask.” My breath hitched, “What are you talking about? You know I can't…” Hermes sighed and began to turn away, “Deals off then.” “Wait!” I grabbed his hand before he could make another step. “Hermes…let's bargain okay…?” He grinned, leaned in so the heat of his breath brushed my ear, “No can't do, Peaches…” his fingers slipped under my waistband. I whimpered. “Now I get to ruin you back.”

Anastasia was the forgotten daughter. Her wolf meant nothing. Her family despised her. And to top it all, her mate, Alpha Grey, chose her sister and killed her with her own blood. But the moon goddess was not that cruel. Reborn in the past, Anastasia swears not to make the same mistake twice. Grey refuses to let her go, Amelia is bent on destroying her again, and fate seems determined to repeat itself. Then comes Nicholas—Grey’s bastard half-brother. Dark-eyed, tattooed, and forbidden. The man who once whispered she was too good for his brother. The man who burns her with every glance, every touch. But can she give her heart to the bastard prince without losing herself? Can she resist Grey’s dangerous pull and Amelia’s endless schemes? Or will history repeat itself, no matter how hard she fights?
