Athos Mountain

On our wedding anniversary, my husband has his intern put on the custom-made wedding gown he prepared for me. "You wouldn't have looked good in a wedding gown with your baby bump, anyway. She's saving us trouble by wearing the gown for you. Think about how kind she is!" Before I can rebuke him, an earthquake happens. I lose my balance and fall to the floor. Instantly, I feel moisture on my legs. At the same time, my husband received a call from his intern. "There are so many frogs here, Mr. Quinn. I'm so scared…" My husband turns to leave, but I grab his pant leg. "Ethan, I—" "It's just a minor earthquake—the ground barely even shook. Don't make a mountain out of a molehill. Didn't you hear Chloe crying because she was so scared? Can't you be sympathetic?" He ignores the blood pooling around me and hurries off to comfort Chloe Bennett. That night, they share a passionate kiss under a sky full of fireworks. Meanwhile, my child dies in my belly. It's a pretty good way to end things. Someone like Ethan Quinn doesn't deserve to have his own children.

Nineteen-year-old Alyra Stevens thought finding her mate would save her from a lifetime of pain. After years of cruelty under her stepmother’s roof, Liam, the charming heir to the Silver Moon Pack, was her light. He was her promise of freedom. Until the night she found him standing over a dead maiden’s body. To protect the man she loved, Alyra took the blame. But instead of saving her, Liam betrayed her, sending her to Red Mountain: the cursed domain of Viktor Draven, the Lycan King feared even by the gods. Viktor was the monster every child grew up hearing about: merciless, cursed, and desperate. For years, he had hunted maidens from every supernatural realm, sacrificing them one by one in hopes of resurrecting his long-dead Luna. Alyra was meant to be the last—the one who would finally end the curse. But the moment he touched her, something shifted. Her scent stirred the beast in him. Her defiance set his blood on fire. She was not a sacrifice. She was temptation itself. Now Viktor faces the cruelest choice of all: to kill the woman fate sent to destroy him… or to defy destiny and watch his kingdom burn.
