In my first life, I was a fool. I was the perfect wife to a man who never looked at me, the loyal daughter to parents who sold me out, and the kind sister to a sibling who stole my future. I lived for them, suffered for them, and eventually, I died because of them, sent to my grave with a smile while they told me to be grateful. But death didn’t take. I woke up back in the past, right before they ruined me.. This time, the perfect person they used to walk all over is gone.. I’m done being nice. I’m here for one thing: to watch them lose everything.. My first move? Ending the marriage to the man who treated me like a ghost. I placed the divorce papers in front of Elias, expecting him to sign them with his usual cold indifference. After all, he’d spent years refusing my touch. Instead, the man who once despised me pinned me to the desk, his eyes burning with a dark, terrifying hunger I’d never seen before. He didn’t sign the papers. He ripped them to shreds with his bare hands. “You spent years begging for my love,” Elias growled, his grip bruising my waist. “Now that I’ve finally decided to give it to you, you think I’m going to let you leave? Over my dead body.”

Some secrets are buried for a reason. Others are waiting to destroy you. Twenty-two-year-old Emilie's world shatters when a dark force murders her nanny before her eyes and she realizes the monsters from her nightmares are real. Fleeing to Silvercrest territory, she saves the life of Kai, the charismatic Alpha's son, never expecting that one act of kindness would drag her into a supernatural war centuries in the making. Welcomed into the pack's palace, Emilie discovers the impossible: her parents are alive, she's part of an ancient prophecy, and everything she knew was a lie. But when Kai betrays her to secure his power, she falls into the hands of Lysander the feared Supreme Alpha everyone believed was dead. Lysander is darkness incarnate, a ruler who commands from the shadows with secrets as dangerous as his touch. As Emilie trains to unlock her dormant powers, she uncovers the truth about the lost kingdom of Valdris, a prophecy that could save or doom them all, and a bond with Lysander that defies fate itself. But the dark sorcerer Thane Nightshade is rising, and he'll burn the world to possess Emilie's power. Caught between destiny and destruction, with her fated mate by her side, Emilie must master abilities she doesn't understand and trust a love she never expected or watch everything she's fought for crumble to ash. In a world where prophecies kill and love is the deadliest weapon, the only question is: will she fulfill her destiny, or become the darkness everyone fears?

A business trip took an unexpected turn when our plane ran into disaster.

By the time we landed safely, I was still in a daze until I saw my boss, eyes bloodshot, storming toward me, flanked by a wall of black-suited bodyguards.

When Aria Thorn returns to her pack after a year in exile, she expects nothing but whispers of shame and Damien Blackthorn’s cold rejection still haunting her. Instead, she steps into a battlefield of power and betrayal. The once-proud Shadowfang pack now belongs to Alpha Riven Cade—a ruthless warrior who rebuilt it from ruin, feared for his iron control and merciless command. Damien, her former lover and childhood friend, has risen to power as a cunning strategist. His ambition burns brighter than ever—claim the Alpha seat, claim the pack, and claim Aria as his Luna, no matter the cost. But destiny has other plans. On the night of Aria’s return, under the blazing eyes of the Moonlight Ceremony, she is branded with a mate bond before the entire pack. Not with Damien. With Riven. What begins as survival spirals into a war of love and power. Riven demands her loyalty but offers no warmth, every clash between them simmering with fury and forbidden desire. Damien manipulates allies, whispering poison into ears until the pack itself begins to fracture. And as betrayal seeps through the ranks, Aria’s buried Shadowfang bloodline awakens—its power tied to a prophecy that could unite the Alphas or destroy them all. Her grandmother’s dying visions warn her: one Alpha she loves must die. Allies vanish. Missions are sabotaged. Blood spills beneath the full moon. Caught between her cold, fated Alpha and her dangerous ex-lover, Aria must choose: save her people beside Riven—or surrender to vengeance and risk becoming the storm that ends them all. Every heartbeat brings her closer to the truth: love is war, destiny is betrayal, and her Shadowfang bloodline is both her greatest weapon—and her deadliest curse.
