April Hale

Adrian Cole thought he had hit the big time when world-famous sensation Damian Knight asked him to tour as the opener for his world tour. But just as his dreams were in reach, one phone call wrecked his future—he was accused of plagiarizing the songs of other people, branded a thief, and discarded. On the walk home from the recording studio, Adrian was ambushed, struck by a car, and arrested on false drug charges, betrayed by the person he most trusted: his husband, Ethan Cross. After being blinded, silenced, and forgotten, Adrian spends years behind bars until Sebastian Cross, Ethan's estranged younger brother, shows up as a messiah in the most unlikely of ways. Sebastian rescues Adrian, gives him a new identity, and sets him on the path to retribution using his wealth, power, and personal hidden agendas. Adrian's rage increases as he learns more lies, such as the fact that his former best friend Marcus Hale killed him to atone for their transgressions, that Ethan and Marcus were lovers in the closet, and that Marcus stole his music and called him a bully. But revenge comes at a cost. When Ethan finds Adrian still alive, an intense battle leaves Sebastian injured by a bullet meant for Adrian. Pinned down by love and loyalty, Adrian inherits Sebastian's business as he gets his own life back as a musician. They navigate betrayal, lying, and phantoms of the past. Adrian not only clears his name but also discovers love that eclipses the one which had nearly killed him.

In the shadowed kingdom of Nocturne, where ancient Lycans rule with iron claws and unbreakable wills, Omega Elara Thorne is offered as tribute from her indebted pack—a fragile sacrifice to secure their fragile peace. At the grand mating ceremony under a blood-red moon, fate cruelly binds her to the most feared ruler alive: Kael Draven, the Ruthless Lycan King. Towering and scarred, with storm-gray eyes that promise death to his enemies, Kael rejects her on the spot. "I will not be weakened by a low-born Omega," he snarls publicly, severing their sacred bond and shattering her soul. Cast out, disowned, and broken, Elara flees into the wilderness, only to be rescued by Ronan Hale, a kind-hearted Alpha who offers her sanctuary—and perhaps a love untainted by cruelty. But as Elara's hidden Silver Blood awakens, unleashing powers that could heal or destroy the Lycan throne, Kael begins to unravel. The severed bond haunts him with unrelenting rage and forbidden visions of the woman he cast aside. Possessive instincts he long buried surge to life, whispering that she was never a weakness... but his only salvation. When rebellion threatens Nocturne and an ancient prophecy names Elara as the key to the kingdom's fate, Kael must confront the monster he became. Will he claim the Omega he rejected before another takes her forever? Or will his ruthless pride cost him the one mate destined to tame his beast? A steamy rejected mate romance filled with betrayal, awakening power, and a king's desperate grovel. Weak to strong heroine. Possessive anti-hero. Second chance at fated love.

Rain was my mate's childhood sweetheart. When she found out I'd been exposed to wolfsbane as a child, she slipped a trace amount into my mushroom soup. The moment I swallowed it, a searing pain ripped through my chest. My powers drained away. My wolf howled inside me, thrashing in agony. Panicked, I grabbed my flask — years ago, my father had collected sacred spring water that could neutralize wolfsbane, just in case. But she had swapped that too. The flask was full of the same poisoned soup. The blood drained from my face. Every ounce of strength left my body. I collapsed, clinging to the leg of my mate, Liam. "Please — I've been poisoned. Wolfsbane. You have to help me — " Liam hesitated. But Rain crossed her arms and laughed. "Liam, your fiancée really is quite the actress. It's just mushroom soup. I've been a healer for years, and I've never seen anyone get poisoned from soup." The other werewolves piled on. "Cut the act! Nobody gets poisoned from mushroom soup." "She's just jealous that Rain became a healer. She wants to ruin the celebration." Liam's face went cold again. "Rain's a healer. If there was anything wrong with the soup, she'd know. You'll be fine." I stopped begging. I spent the last shred of my energy reaching through the mind-link to my father — Alpha Hale of the Granite Pack.

I spent five years taking the blame for a truth that could have destroyed my Alpha. In Blackthorn Pack, everyone mocked me as the wolfless Omega who couldn’t bear an heir. They said I was unfit to be Luna. They said Adrian Hale should cast me aside for a stronger woman. What none of them knew was that Adrian was the infertile one. I burned the report myself and let the whole pack shame me for his weakness. I gave up my studies, my pride, and everything I loved to protect him. Then his mistress got pregnant. And I heard the truth with my own ears. “She has no wolf, no pack, no one to stand up for her. Even if she makes a scene, the Elders’ Council won’t take her side.” That was the moment I understood. For power, for bloodline, for status, Adrian had already chosen Lydia Ashcroft, the Alpha’s daughter carrying a child he couldn’t possibly have fathered. So I severed our mate bond. I took nothing from him except the look on his face when he opened the medical report I left behind. Patient: Adrian Hale. Diagnosis: congenital azoospermia. Infertile. What Adrian never knew was that I was never wolfless. I was the lost daughter of a Lycan King. And in my bloodline, a wolf does not awaken until her family calls her home. The one who could never have children was never me. It was the man who begged the world to believe otherwise.

Lila Bennett has always been invisible. The quiet, bookish girl who prefers the library to parties, she spends her days studying and her nights dreaming about someone she could never have Ethan Ryder, the charismatic captain of the university hockey team. Confident, talented, and adored by everyone, Ethan already has the perfect girlfriend: Vanessa Hart, the beautiful and popular queen of campus. For two years, Lila has secretly admired Ethan from afar, writing about him in her private notebook while keeping her feelings hidden. But when Ethan’s academic performance falters, putting his spot on the hockey team at risk, he is assigned a tutor and that tutor is Lila. Suddenly, the invisible girl and the campus king are forced together. Late night tutoring sessions turn into shared secrets, stolen glances, and undeniable chemistry. Ethan begins to see Lila in a new light intelligent, kind, and unlike anyone he’s ever known. But love on campus is never simple. Vanessa notices Ethan’s growing interest in Lila and will stop at nothing to maintain her status and control. And when another hockey player, Lucas Hale, begins developing feelings for Lila, she finds herself caught in a complicated love triangle. Jealousy, rumors, and hidden truths surface, forcing Lila to confront her feelings, assert her confidence, and decide what and who she truly wants. In a world of rivalry, heartbreak, and high stakes, the quiet girl who was once invisible may finally become the one everyone is fighting for.

Her back hit the cold wall before she could even breathe. Damian’s hand slid to her jaw, tilting her face up to his. His voice was a low, trembling threat. “Do you feel what you’re doing to me, Aria?” Her heartbeat stuttered. “You’re my sister’s husband…” “Exactly,” he whispered. “That’s why I shouldn’t want you.” He leaned closer, his breath brushing her lips. “But wanting you is all I’ve done… every damn day.” *** Aria Hale has spent her life unseen, ignored by her father, used by her sister, and taught that her feelings don’t matter. But everything changes the day she moves into her sister’s penthouse… the same home ruled by Damian Cross. Thirty-six. Billionaire. Cold. Married to her sister. And quietly, obsessively fixated on Aria. He watches her too long. Stands too close. Speaks too softly for a man with no heart. He looks at her like she’s the only warmth in his frozen world. Aria tries to avoid him. Tries to reject him. Tries to pretend she doesn’t feel the air tighten when he enters a room. But Damian does not let go. He corners. He interferes. He destroys anything that dares approach her. Because wrong or not, forbidden or not— he has already decided she belongs to him. And when the truth behind his obsession finally comes to light… Aria will learn that some desires, once awakened, are impossible to escape.

Allison Hale has always hated vampires. After all, they've never given her a reason not too, not when they brutally murdered her family and definitely not when she was forcefully turned into a blood slave for one of their kind. No, Allison did not like vampires. She has never failed to kill anyone that crossed her way, including the man who wrecked her life all those years ago. But when she finds herself transitioning into the very thing she despises, her life is thrown in chaos. Desperate to find a way to reverse the change, Allison ends up attracting the attention of the one Vampire who wants her dead the most. Only one person mattered to Elias Morley, his only surviving family after the war for the throne. So when news of his brother’s death reaches his ears, he’s understandably enraged and swears to hunt down the female hunter responsible for it. That was the plan until he finally met her. The person he loathed the most, the woman who took his brother from him turned out to be his fated bride. One woman ended up being the person he searched for the most but in two different ways. Torn between his primal instincts and his thirst for revenge, what will Elias do now that he finally has her in his clutches? Will their scorching attraction push them towards a path of romance? Or will Elias choose to avenge his brother’s death? What happens when it comes to light that Allison is more than just an orphaned hunter?

I thought divorce would free me from Roland Voss, the man who turned our marriage into a gilded prison. But walking away from a Voss isn’t freedom. It’s war. The press calls me a gold-digger. His lawyers call me a liability. And Roland? He just smirks across his mahogany desk and murmurs, “You’ll never escape me, Aliyah. Not while you carry my name.” I swore I’d never shatter again until I met him. Dominic Voss. Roland’s younger brother. The man I shouldn’t even look at, let alone want. He sees the cracks in me no one else bothers to notice. When the world turns its back, Dominic leans close and whispers, “Let me protect you. Even if it means going against my own blood.” Every stolen glance is treason. Every brush of his hand sets me on fire. And when Victor Hale, a rival billionaire with teeth sharper than Roland’s, circles closer, I realize I’ve become the prize in a game where men like them never lose. But I’m not the same woman Roland once broke. This time, I’m willing to risk everything, scandal, ruin, even the wrath of the dynasty that branded me theirs to choose the man who makes me feel alive. The question is… Will my freedom cost me my heart? Or will loving Dominic ignite a war that none of us survive?

She loved him when he had absolutely nothing. When the tough times came, he was the one who let her down. Three years ago Dominic Hale was the one who broke Arielle Moores heart. He was her first, the man who knew every inch of her body, every way to make her fall apart. Then he just left her there like a broken piece. He's now the CEO of a billion, dollar company, and she is the designer whos been hired to renovated his office. And one thing they still had in common? Their chemistry never faded. One glance and she is reliving his touch on her skin. One breath and he is terribly tempted to remind her just whose she used to be. Six months of close proximity. Business meetings that seem like foreplay. Boundaries that are falling apart with every passionate gaze. When at last, she breaks and kisses him desperate, hungry, all three years of need they both acknowledge: this was never truly over. He wants her back. Whole. She wants to protect her heart. But her body is still yearning for his touch. His manipulative ex shows up again. Her brother overdoses. And all of a sudden, staying away from each other becomes totally impossible especially when he appears at the very moment she needs him, just like in the old times. He had her once and lost her. He is not going to make the same mistake again. And he knows exactly how to get her back in his arms.

Sabi nila lahat ng bagay at tao my lugar may pwesto, may panahon at oras makakapagpasaya man sayo o hindi. Gaya na lang ng araw sa umaga bwan sa gabi, ang tubig sa ilog umaagos at ulan ay pumapatak, ang tao ay nabubuhay at namamatay... But Im not buying it kasi kung ganon? Bakit kinuha agad ang mahal ko? Ang lugar at pwesto pati panahon at oras nya ay dapat sa tabi ko. Kaya isa lang ang ibig sabihin LIFE IS A BIG BULLSHIT UNFAIR! Sandali ko lang syang nakasama pero kinuha na lang sya bigla. Marami pa kaming gustong gawin at puntahan. Marami pa syang pangarap na gustong tuparin. Kung maibabalik ko lang ang oras. Pero kahit anong gawin ko di na ko makakabalik sa oras na yon. Yong masaya at kasama ang mahal ko. *** Tumgin ako sa salamin at yuko. Tumingin uli ako sa salamin... Tingin sa likod.... Sa salamin uli.... "Oh jesus!!!!" "Waaaaaaahhhhhh..." Sigaw ko habang nakaturo sa salamin. Subra talaga ang takot ko kaharap ko ang bata kong pag mumukha! Sigaw pa rin ako ng sigaw buti na lang walang tao kundi para akong baliw. Totoo ba to? Kinurot ko sarili ko at pinag sasampal. "Aray! Putik ang sakit" "Ano bang nangyayari? Ganito ba sa heaven?" Lumabas ako hahanapin ko na si mahal walang duda patay na ko! As in dead. Pero pano si mommy? Hinihintay ako. "Bala na si batman basta mahanap ko si mahal." Napadaan ako sa labas ng at.. Ano ba showing nila mga luma na pang 2014 pa. sariwa pa sa akin ang mga taon ng nakilala ko si mahal. Teka? Parang may di tama. Kaya nag duda na ko nagtanong- tanong ako at sa 20 na taong tinanong ko isa lang ang sagut... Today is APRIL, 17,2014. Hindi pwede, 2055 na sa panahon ko.
