Blacksmith Forge

Marabelle Daisy Graystone has spent twelve years in witness protection, living among humans as "Daisy Thompson" while hiding her true nature—she's a rare "diamond wolf," one of the Goddess's chosen born once per millennium. Working at her burger restaurant while secretly running a multi-billion-dollar empire as bestselling author Black Orchid and artist Silver Knight, she's built a perfect cover in human society. But when Kieran, her murdered father's former Beta, tracks her down seeking to claim her power, her carefully constructed life shatters. Rescued by Jackson Hunter, the brooding son of the powerful Moon Hunter Pack's Alpha, Marabelle discovers he's her fated mate—the very wolf she's been avoiding for years. She'd overheard Jackson tell his friends that if she turned out to be his mate, he would reject her, choosing duty over desire. When Jackson arrives to return a precious family heirloom, Marabelle braces for the rejection she believes is inevitable. Instead, he confesses his feelings have changed—that witnessing her courage made him realise duty and desire can align. As their mate bond awakens her suppressed abilities, Marabelle must reclaim her birthright as Alpha of the decimated Silvercrest Pack while navigating treacherous pack politics. When the Moon Goddess herself appears to bless their union, their relationship triggers supernatural consequences that reshape the werewolf world. But happiness attracts dangerous enemies. Alpha Thorne of the Western Reaches emerges from isolation, claiming that "untrained" diamond wolves pose a threat to all wolfkind. Together, they forge an unprecedented alliance of eleven packs, creating the first Wolf Council in three thousand years. Racing against ancient powers that would control or destroy her, Marabelle must demonstrate that her unconventional path represents the future of their kind, proving that strength comes not from isolation but from the courage to build bridges between worlds.

Ever since I married Myra Cowan, I started living like a beggar despite making an annual salary of a million dollars. She kept telling me, "We should hang in there for now, honey. Once we've saved enough money, we'll be able to live however we want without worrying about our financial situation." My closet was stuffed with old suits bought ten years ago. My lunches were always sandwiches, which were nearing their expiry dates, bought from convenience stores. My friends made fun of me for marrying a woman who was addicted to saving money. But my heart went out to Myra for suffering with me in life. But when I was diagnosed with late-stage stomach cancer and needed money for a life-saving surgery, Myra broke down in tears and told me that all of our savings were kept in a fixed-term deposit. Before I drew my last breath, I heard Myra telling her younger brother, Dwight Cowan, over the phone in a gentle tone, "I've already transferred you the down payment for your house." When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Myra demands that I sell my gaming account in exchange for money. The monitor shows a familiar login screen. Myra can be seen standing next to me. "This account can be sold for 8,000 dollars. We can save three months' worth of expenses with this money!" I just laugh in response. In my previous life, I had done nothing but save money. In the end, all of my money became someone else's assets. Why the hell should I save money in this life? With just one click on the mouse, I reload a million dollars into the game right away. Immediately, a reddish-golden meteor shower covers the skies of the entire server. The system makes an announcement in a bold, enlarged font that gets repeated for a long time. "Player 'Void' spares no expense, inviting fair maidens from across the realms to forge a destined bond! Those who are interested are welcome to attend the Celestial Lake Gathering. A bride price of one million awaits—offered in exchange for a single, sincere heart."

Kaïla, une jeune fille issue d'une meute de loups-garous, qui se sent de plus en plus exclue de sa famille et de son groupe. Contrairement aux autres, elle possède des pouvoirs uniques et des instincts différents qui la rendent mal comprise. Alors que ses capacités sont jugées dangereuses et imprévisibles, Kaïla lutte pour trouver sa place dans un monde qui valorise l'unité et la tradition. Confrontée aux attentes de sa meute et à ses propres doutes, elle cherche à comprendre la véritable nature de ses pouvoirs et à trouver sa propre voie. Un jour, la meute de Kaïla reçoit la visite inattendue d'Aric, le grand souverain des loups-garous, le plus puissant des alphas. Respecté et craint par tous, Aric est un leader d'une puissance exceptionnelle, capable de régner sur plusieurs meutes d'un seul geste. Son arrivée dans leur territoire provoque une onde de choc, et Kaïla se retrouve soudainement confrontée à un homme dont la présence bouleverse tout son monde. Ce n’est pas juste un visiteur : Aric est son âme sœur, une révélation qu’elle met du temps à accepter. Cependant, l'attention d’Aric n'est pas seulement captée par Kaïla. Sa sœur aînée, Lyra, voit en lui une occasion de renforcer son propre pouvoir et n'hésite pas à user de tous ses charmes pour tenter de le séduire et de l'attirer dans ses filets. Kaïla se trouve alors déchirée entre sa relation naissante avec Aric et les manœuvres politiques de sa sœur, qui veut à tout prix s’assurer le soutien du souverain. Kaïla devra non seulement lutter contre la jalousie et les complots de Lyra, mais aussi accepter ses pouvoirs uniques et sa différence. Aric, en tant que souverain, pourrait être celui qui renverse les traditions et forge un avenir où elle pourra enfin s'accepter.
