Clock Strikes Lyrics

Book Four of the Luminary Quartet Join Marigold as she ventures far outside of her comfort zone, accompanying her true mate Asher into unknown territory in a flight across both land and sea in order to seek aid from the enigmatic clan of shifters who call the Eastern Islands home. Imagine her shock when she learns that she has not one, but two mates. Asher has spent the last two years fighting off the invading bears, and the only thing that has kept him going was the thought of finding his soulmate. Mari was absolute perfection despite the barriers she’d erected around her heart, but he never dreamed he would have to share his other half. Zacharias has ruled over his clan alone ever since his second passed in a tragic accident over a year ago, but dragons always mate in triads and some believed his position was temporary, as a result. Furthermore, the arrival of his mate and Asher only increased the already mounting tension. What began as a journey to end one war somehow led to the precipice of another. Yet this time, Mari and the humans were the ones directly in the crosshairs, leaving Asher and Rias to scramble against the clock to break down their mate’s walls as long-held secrets emerge. Will Mari be able to let go of her fears before it’s too late, or will the last remaining elder standing win when everything is said and done? *Please Note: This is the fourth book in the Luminary Quartet, and it's recommended to read the previous books in the series first. This is a MFM romance, but there are no MM scenes.

In the cold, sunless Silver Peak Pack, power is everything, and Maya Ashley has none. To the rest of the wolves, she is a "runt"... a lowly servant who cleans the floors and cooks the meals. But Maya is hiding a secret that could get her burned alive: she is the world’s only Vampire Werewolf Hybrid. The pack is ruled by Alpha Kael, a warrior who is slowly losing his mind. Kael suffers from ‘Killer’s Fever,’ a violent madness that turns Alphas into feral monsters. No medicine can help him, except for one thing: Maya’s blood. For months, Maya has been secretly drugging Kael’s nightly tea with drops of her own blood. It is the only thing that keeps the Alpha sane, but it has created a dangerous side effect: Kael has become physically addicted to her presence without knowing why. As the Blood Moon approaches, Maya’s clock begins to tick. Ancient lore states that on this night, a hybrid must choose a side. If she mates with a wolf, her vampire half dies; if she mates with a vampire, her wolf side is lost forever. The stakes explode when Prince Victor of the Vampire Kingdom arrives at the borders. He doesn't want a wife; he wants to eliminate the ‘hybrid mistake’ to prove his strength. He publicly exposes Maya’s fangs, turning her own pack against her. At the same time, Maya discovers a heartbreaking truth: her own mother was the witch who cursed Kael with madness as revenge for an old war. Now, Maya is trapped between a Prince who wants her dead and an Alpha who is addicted to her blood.

During my three-year secretive relationship with my boss, Zane Bender, we used 999 condoms. Before Zane dated me, he'd go through 20 partners per month. After he started dating me, he only bedded me and me only. He promised me that he'd give me a surprise on my birthday. I thought it was going to be a grand proposal. But the moment the clock struck 12, Zane called me. "Cassidy, buy a pack of condoms and deliver it to the 31st floor of Mavelon Hotel right now. Remember, I want the extra thin ones." At that moment, I couldn't believe my ears. Before I could react, Zane completely lost his patience. He urged, "Stop standing around! Hurry up and get over here! Lily and I are in the mood right now!" Lily Hubbard was the charming secretary who recently joined the company. My complexion turned pale instantly. "You're sleeping with her, Zane? Then… Then who am I to you?" Zane fell silent for a while. Then, he let out a soft chuckle. "You? You're just a bedwarmer who can help alleviate my urges. That's all." It turned out that the so-called surprise wasn't a proposal. It was just me fantasizing about a relationship that never existed in the first place. The pink bubbles of love and romance finally popped on my 25th birthday. After that, a car accident completely changed everything in my life. When I meet Zane again, he realizes that he can no longer win back the heart of his "pet".

“You think I want this?” she hisses. “You think I asked for this bond? I hate you. I hate everything about you. You killed my husband.

Caught in a web of anger and attraction, Katya must decide whether to reject the bond and risk its unknown consequences, or keep the Rogue alive long enough to figure out what the Goddess has cursed her with. But the clock is ticking, and the pack won’t wait forever for justice.
