Brutal

Di distrik lampu merah yang gelap, sebuah tangan terulur menyelamatkan Ann dari jurang kehancuran—namun di baliknya tersembunyi luka lama dan niat yang tak sepenuhnya murni. Ann, seorang gadis yang kehilangan ingatan setelah menyaksikan ledakan mobil yang menewaskan orang tuanya, diculik dan dijual ke dunia kelam itu. Ia dibeli oleh Mikhael, pria brutal dari arena bawah tanah yang mengaku mengenalnya. Tapi Mikhael bukan lagi pria lembut dari masa lalunya—ia kini dingin, penuh kemarahan, dan dihantui dendam. Di tempat ini, tak ada keselamatan tanpa sesuatu yang harus dikorbankan. Saat Ann mencoba kabur dari jerat Mikhael, ia justru terperangkap lebih dalam dalam jaringan gelap perdagangan manusia, narkoba, dan misi rahasia militer di kawasan dunia bawah tanah. Di antara kebencian, ketakutan, dan harapan yang samar, tumbuh perasaan yang tak bisa mereka tolak—cinta yang lahir di tempat paling kelam.

Blurb: “Accept it” He roared, his eyes filled with hatred and disgust. “I…Arielle accepts your rejection,” she gasped, the words ripping through her soul. A flash of a broken red light. A bond severed. *** Arielle the Luna of the Moon Titan Pack, is the last surviving heir to a fallen bloodline after her parents' brutal deaths. She thought love would be her redemption. But betrayal runs deeper than rejection. Arielle is betrayed and slain on the night of a full moon. But the Moon Goddess is not finished with her yet. Reborn with a celestial mark, Arielle awakens as a Tribrid—Wolf, Witch and a Vampire—carrying a power feared across the realms. A power that could unite or destroy, depending on the heart that wields it. But fate has a cruel sense of justice. Her path collides with Alpha Ethan Blackthorn, the cursed Alpha she once rejected. His name is spoken in fear. Dark, dangerous, and burdened by secrets, Ethan is everything Arielle swore to resist. Yet as old betrayals surface and bloodlines unravel, their destinies collide in a storm of passion, vengeance, and prophecy. Arielle must decide: will she burn the world to avenge her parents, or rise above the bloodshed to rule with justice and forgiveness?

Evie Callahan never believed in monsters—until one dragged her off the street and locked her in a world she didn’t know existed. A world where alphas rule through blood and fear. Where her name means nothing, but her blood means everything. Turns out, she’s not just human. She’s rare. Valuable. And every pack wants to own her. Especially him. Lucian Calder. Alpha of the Calder pack. Vicious. Controlling. Dangerous. And he says she’s his mate. His rules are brutal, his touch addictive, and the longer she stays, the harder it is to tell if she’s a prisoner… or truly his mate. Evie swore she’d never belong to anyone. Then the second Alpha finds her. Older. Colder. And he claims she was never meant for Lucian—that the bond they share is a lie, and that he’s the one she was born for. Now she’s caught between two powerful rivals, hunted by the council, and stalked by another. Both Alphas want her. Both would kill for her. Both are willing to burn the world for her. And neither is letting go.

“I am the father of the child”, Azar spoke up, “but she will not live, she must die” Ignis looked at him with anger, “You! You are to take after me as the oldest yet you are the one causing me pain. That girl will not die! She is carrying the child of a royal Draego. No one will touch her and she must come here”. “Ignis, you have to understand that, that human will be his weakness and he needs strength”, the empress replied. Edgan and Zayn turned to Azar, they were trying to think of any human girl they saw him with. Ignis turned to his wife to reply to her, “If you read that letter, you’d see that her father is about to sell her off through a marriage alliance to the Slavcan prince, do you want Azar’s child to grow with the Slavcans?” *********************** Kaliyah had caused quite an uproar among the Draegos as she was a human carrying the child of a royal dragon. This child was her saving grace from the hands of the brutal Slavcans and a call to her destiny as the bride of the royal dragon. As the warrior princess that she was, she fought for peace in her time and helped grow her kingdom with the help of the dragons.

I'm Aurora, a commoner, an inferior bloodline. My parents taught me a lot of things growing up, but the most important one is never piss off a royal. They run the world, they make the rules, and they are brutal when they don’t get exactly what they want, especially an unmated commoner girl. Most royals fuck commoner girls for fun, knowing we couldn’t possibly fight back. Some of them do it to get their release and then kill them, leaving behind no chance for an heir that is a half-breed. I’ve never seen a commoner female return from the palace. There aren’t many of us left in my pack, but my alpha has managed to convince the royal warriors that there aren’t any unmated females in his pack and if there were, he would gladly hand them over I’m unmated, only a year and half away from turning twenty to feel my mate. I pray to Moon Goddess that I need the protection of a mate. Until that day, a tall, brute man walks into my house like he was invited in. I tremble while he grins. He is a Royal.

A mountain, once a towering monument to man's ambition, now sobbed rust and decay. Its skeletal skyscrapers clawed at a sky choked with ash, an endless darkness that reflected the desolation below. Here, where survival was a brutal equation of scavenged scraps and desperate violence, whispers clung to the crumbling ruins like the ever-present dust. Whispers of a legend, a shadow lurking in the deepest, forgotten heart of the mountain: a monster. They called him the Blood King, a name hissed with fear and reverence. Not just another vampire, but a predator whose power had once threatened to consume all of man-kind. He is said to be so great that no one was a match to his strength, his wrath so terrible, that the ancients themselves, the very inventors of their shadowed presence, had deemed him too dangerous to roam free. They imprisoned him, not in chains of iron, but in a cage of blood. A cage that could only be unlocked by the one whose essence was his destined key, his chosen one. A cruel contradiction, a punishment designed to bind him for eternity. Unknown to them all that the blood king’s chosen one was a human adventurer, who lived for the thrill and would do anything for a fearful adventure.

But on her wedding day, everything shatters when she catches her fiancé in bed with her own sister. Humiliated and discarded, Eleanor’s world collapses in a single, brutal moment. Drowning in champagne and desperation, she makes a reckless choice: one night in the arms of Damian Laird, the city’s most ruthless billionaire CEO and her ex-fiancé’s sworn rival.

Damian is cold, calculating, and devastatingly magnetic. He doesn’t believe in love but he does believe in revenge. And Eleanor is the perfect weapon…if she can survive the war they’re about to wage. But in a high stakes game of power and seduction, lines blur, and desire ignites into something neither of them saw coming. This time, Eleanor won’t be a pawn. She’ll be the queen and she’ll burn down anyone who tries to cage her again.
