Tiga tahun setelah menggelar resepsi pernikahan, suamiku yang merupakan seorang pilot sudah 18 kali membatalkan rencana pendaftaran pernikahan kami.

Setelah gagal dalam ujian masuk perguruan tinggi, aku menikah dengan Logan Simpson dan bersusah payah mengurus dirinya selama 40 tahun. Namun, setelah dia meninggal, aku justru tidak diizinkan menghadiri pemakamannya. Selain itu, dia membagi separuh hartanya untuk anak-anak, dan separuhnya lagi diberikan kepada cinta pertamanya. Yang ditinggalkan untukku hanyalah satu kalimat. "Surat penerimaan yang kuambil darimu dulu, sudah kutebus dengan 40 tahun ini." Ternyata, saat itu aku bukan gagal ujian, melainkan surat penerimaanku telah diambil olehnya untuk diberikan kepada cinta pertamanya. Aku membuat keributan di pemakamannya, menuntut ketidakadilan selama 40 tahun ini, tetapi anak-anakku justru membenciku. "Ayah dan Bibi Eva memang ditakdirkan bersama, Ibulah yang menyelak dan merusak kebahagiaan mereka." "Kalau Ibu terus membuat keributan, jangan salahkan kami membuang Ibu di desa dan membiarkan Ibu hidup sebatang kara!" Aku akhirnya mati karena terlalu marah. Saat membuka mata kembali, aku sudah kembali ke tahun ketika aku mengikuti ujian masuk perguruan tinggi. Waktu itu, surat penerimaan masih dalam perjalanan, dan hidupku baru saja akan dimulai.

“One night shatters her world forever...” “What did you see?" Enzo demands, his voice deadly quiet. “Nothing," she whispered under her breath as she tried to back away. “I saw nothing." “Liar," Ryan growls, closing the distance between them in a heartbeat. “Your eyes betray you... and your scent—" His nostrils flare. “Impossible." “Mine," they growl in unison. And before she can flee, their claiming marks sear into her flesh. Hours later, she's chained in a dungeon cell, accused of a murder she didn't commit. But why would the powerful Alpha twins frame their own mate? ………….. Invisible. Forgotten. Barely surviving. For years, Athena has scrubbed floors and endured cruelty as a servant to the DarkMoon pack's ruthless Alpha family—until the unthinkable happens.

Reyna Aniston is an aide, a healer who can control emotions. She should be a priceless treasure in the werewolf world, where most alphas can't control their temper. However, life didn't treat her well. After being mistreated, chained and confined by her alpha, she finally escaped and met a special Alpha, a dire wolf. Cain Covington who was imprisoned by the Order for murdering someone in an attempt of protecting his sister. His wolf went dire in prison, which gave the Order a chance to deem him ‘crazy’ and pushed him to the edge of losing his title as an Alpha. After meeting each other, Cain made a deal to mark Reyna as his mate so she could be saved from her miserable past. The deal was simple —— Once his wolf gets healed he will let her go, he said that with determination, as if all he wants from her is her special ability. What both of them couldn’t foresee was, a year later, he would head over heels for her and never want to let her go. Cain Covington saved a girl who in the end became his sole saviour.

The same rare blood binds them. Now she has a choice: use the bastard to destroy Viktor… or let him destroy her. Brutal enemies-to-lovers • Soul-crushing rejection • Merciless revenge • Rising alpha • Forbidden mate bond The rejected wolf is back. And this time, she hunts.

"𝑨 𝑮𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝑫𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑹𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆" In the kingdom of evils, he was a god feared as a monster. Xavier Stone, a gangster. A name that made even devils bow. He built his empire from blood, sin, and the screams of men who thought they could defy him. A man with no mercy, only hunger for power. And yet, one woman brought that evil god to his knees. Iris Ashford... kind, yet strong when it mattered. She was everything he wasn't. When fate moved, it struck hard. Her marriage proposal landed on his table like a loaded gun. And that moment was the beginning of his possession. When Xavier Stone desired something, the world burned in ash before he let it go. Iris could face anything, but marrying a criminal was never her choice. She despised men like him, a gangster, the kind who caused pain to others without a flicker of guilt. She would've done anything to stop it, to escape the fate that chained her to his name. But destiny turned merciless, and in one twisted move, she found herself bound to the very man she swore she'd never belong to. Then began his dark devotion...

“My warriors will slaughter you all. They will—” “Shhhh.” Alpha George placed his finger on my lips, “You know your people have lost, Kyra. Your army is nowhere close to mine; neither are your weapons. The best you can do from here is pray.” I lifted my chin, showing no fear. With the chains tugging my skin, I spat, eyes burning with flames, “If you're not scared, release me, let me fight with my people if I would not chop your head off.” “No, Kyra. You're my…” He paused, looking all soft and calm, until he replied, “Prisoner.” – Kyra Dew, Gamma of the Red Sky Pack, had gone to battles and come back victorious until she went to battle against their rivals, the Moonshine Pack. Captured, chained, and tortured for the truth, Kyra only promised to speak up when she saw the Alpha. Alpha George, strong and fearless, came into the dungeon to receive the shock of his life. His mate was the one whom he had ordered his guards to torture until she spat the truth. Angered and regretful, he made a mistake, a mistake that led to her escape, leading to the death of many. Kyra escaped back to her pack, happy to go back to her lover and soon-to-be Alpha, only to receive the shock of her life. What happens when Kyra finds out that her boyfriend isn't really her mate but has been deceived? What would Alpha George do when he finally finds the girl who caused him so much loss? “You don't know me,” Kyra said. Her chin was held in Alpha George’s grip. “I know enough to kill you.” Alpha George replied. Yet, his burning eyes were fixed on her lips. “Kill me?” Kyra tilted her head, “Or kiss me?” She whispered.
