Crimson Thorns

“Part your legs for me, princess” Alpha Damian humored huskily like he was intoxicated, I whimpered as he voice sents a jolts of emotions round my body. An emotion that I wasn't supposed to feel. Selene was 18 years old when she found out that Alpha Jasper of the Silver Crescent pack was her mate at her Awakening ceremony. Being a reject with no parents she lived with him for over one year as a slave and he never acknowledged her as his mate because he couldn't accept a reject as his mate. On her 20th birthday, her mate not only rejected her and chose her best friend; Imogen, as his new mate, but he also sold Selene to the most feared Alpha; Alpha Damian of the Crimson Moon pack whom everyone referred to as a beast. Not knowing why Alpha Damian chose to buy her, she can only resign herself to fate. What has the moon goddess installed for her again? Is this the freedom she solely crave for? Will she be tied down with the shackles of the unknown?

Crimson thought she had died as the one guy she had ever loved stared at her with hatred in his eyes, only to wake up two years ago when he hadn’t shown her his true colors. Life gave her another chance and you can be sure she would use it for revenge. In her past life she had made mistakes by being too kind and naive, and trusting those who she shouldn’t have. She had been betrayed and hurt by her sister, and fiancé and in the process lost everything she had, including her life. And when she’s given a second chance to live, she swears to get revenge on those evil people. Knowing everything this time around, she came with her revenge serving cold, and a little over prepared. The only thing she didn’t expect is that she finds true love in the least possible guy she expects, especially one who she had hurt in her past life.

"Stay out of my way, you human!." Jason's voice was a low, dangerous growl, his crimson eyes locking onto mine with a hunger that sent a shiver down my spine. "Or I'll make you regret stepping into my world!" "Regret?" I whispered, my heart hammering. "Or Crave?" I should have listened. I should have run. But when he pressed me against the cold wall, his fingers tracing down my throat, his breath hot against my skin, I knew I was already lost. As a human student in Blue Vile College, I was a fragile doll in a world of monsters. But when I caught the eye of two powerful vampires, Jason and Adrian, I became a pawn in their deadly game of desire. Torn between their forbidden love, I'm trapped in a web of lust, lies, and secrets. But the truth about my mother's death is hidden in the shadows, waiting to be uncovered. Will I surrender to their eternal hunger, or will I fight to survive? "Two vampires. One desire. My destruction..."

No one wants to face rejection from the person they love, nor does anyone want to be seen as weak and vulnerable. People want to be accepted for who they are, but the work-out stage is always not working out. Rachael Snyder has had it hard in life, being the first ever baby to be born as a wolf pup. At first, she had been cared for majestically, but her failure to wolf out makes her an outcast and a sudden threat to the pack. They all gave up on her, and her haters made her a laughing stock, a living mockery. She is further blessed by the moon goddess who gave her a mate, the Alpha of the Crimson moon Pack, Mike Freeman. Right in the open, he rejects her and chases her out of the pack, banished for eternity. In her search for survival, she meets Kelvin Alfred, the ruthless prince of the Lycans, who takes her in. What happens when the Ruthless Alpha King professes his love for her? Mike comes back, pleading for a second chance, and she unlocks her inner powers, which should have been concealed forever.

Tessa Finley, a female werewolf who lived in the family of humans, particularly hunters. All this time, she thought that fate had been trying to mock and make her suffer. But when she found out that she’s a shifter—a werewolf, her life instantly changed. Migrating to the world full of shifters, Tessa thought that she’d finally have a life she’d live to the fullest. However, when the mating season started, she’d fall into the biggest dilemma she’d ever have. Two hot male werewolves claimed that she’s their mate. What's even worse? They are the new Alpha and Beta of the Crimson Shadows pack. With her wolf remaining locked and inactive, she’d have trouble choosing between the two powerful werewolves. As Tessa goes through such decision making in life, she’d slowly unveil the secrets of her identity, and unlock powers that she, herself, never imagined she’d gain in no time. In the midst of all these circumstances, would she ever find out who her true mate is?

Under the Moon Goddess, I was once the happiest Luna of the Black Pack. Alpha Mike cherished me, cradled me in his palms, and bestowed upon me a name and glory. But on that day— I lay on the operating table as he slit open my abdomen himself, offering my liver to his white moonlight, Lina. My husband held Lina’s hand, whispering tenderly in her ear: "Don’t be afraid. Anna’s life is worthless—yours is the one that matters." As the anesthesia wore off, agony seared through me. The doctor gasped: "She’s in her differentiation phase! Forcing the surgery will cripple her for life!" Yet Mike didn’t even glance back, leaving with Lina in his arms: "Just an Omega. Saving you is her privilege." Later, I knelt before the witch Jery, trading all my memories for freedom. When Mike stormed into the shop, roaring at my amnesiac, bubble-blowing self— I shrank into the witch’s arms, trembling: "Sister… who is this madman?" His eyes burned crimson as he tore our contract to shreds.

When my mother went into kidney failure and needed a transplant, it was Pauline Maynard—on the brink of death herself—who gave my mom a second chance at life. Just before Pauline passed, she gripped my hand tightly and whispered her final words. "Summer, Ricky is my only son. He's rebellious… and fragile. Please, take care of him. Just three years, please?" I gave her my word. Then I moved into their home and gave Ricky everything he needed—love, comfort, a sense of safety. For three years, I stayed true to that promise. By the third year, Ricky had transformed. No longer the wayward boy he once was, he rose to become the Mafia Don Ricky Lenza. And I was carrying his child. As I busied myself with wedding plans, I overheard something I was never meant to hear—his voice, low and mocking, as he wrapped another woman in his arms. "Summer? She's just pretending to love me for the sake of my mother's inheritance and a stupid deal. A gold digger like her dreams of marrying me? What a joke." A sharp pain pierced my chest, like thorns stabbing deep beneath the skin. On the way to a prenatal checkup, we were hit in a crash. My baby didn't make it. And my mother, sitting in the passenger seat, shielded me with her life. When I woke up, I stared blankly at the date on my phone. Three days left. That would've marked the end of the three-year promise. I realized then—I'd paid my debt to Pauline in full. It was time for me to go.
