In the city of Veylor, the town was divided by fear and power. On one side stood the hunters, led by Garrick Liason, the man whose name was whispered with deep respect and fear. He had built his life on the blood of wolves, his weapons, and the strong belief that werewolves were monsters to be eradicated. His daughter, Irvine, had always walked at his side, she was outwardly obedient but inwardly she was restless. She hated the violence, the endless cycle of chase and kill, yet she bore the weight of his legacy because she knew nothing else except this life. And to her, she was fully human, fragile, breakable, and destined only to hunt. What she did not know was that half of her blood told a different story. Her mother had been a werewolf, carrying a secret that even Garrick had not known. But the truth could not be hidden forever. Far beyond the city walls, Jeweled Golin carried wounds of his own. He was supposed to be a proud Alpha, but he had been rejected by his pack, stripped of his birthright, and cast into the forest. He was scarred but unbroken, he roamed as a lone wolf, dangerous, untamed, yet strangely powerful. His presence woke something primal in all those who crossed his path, and when Irvine met his eyes for the first time, she felt her world shift. The lies of her life began to unravel when she started getting hints of her power. And that she, daughter of the hunter, was also the daughter of the hunted.

Je m’appelais Mosis, ingénieur en génie civil, passionné par l’histoire et les civilisations anciennes. Ma vie s’est brutalement arrêtée dans un accident… pour reprendre dans un trône froid, au cœur d’un royaume en ruine. Désormais, je suis Rolland Frostmar, roi d’un territoire oublié, haï par son peuple, méprisé par ses vassaux. Mais je ne suis pas revenu les mains vides. Un Système de Renommée s’est activé à mon arrivée. Pour chaque action significative – victoire militaire, réforme réussie, invention utile – je gagne des Points de Renommée, échangeables contre des technologies, des savoirs perdus, ou même des innovations modernes. Agriculture, médecine, armement, industrie… à condition d’avoir la sagesse de choisir quand et comment avancer. Car chaque progrès a son prix. Trop d’innovations peuvent bouleverser l’ordre établi. Une réforme mal pensée peut déclencher une révolte. Et chaque ennemi vaincu en attire trois autres. Nobles arrogants, prêtres fanatiques, rois rivaux et traîtres dans l’ombre... tous veulent ma chute. À travers le feu, la ferraille et les complots, je reconstruirai ce royaume. Je ne suis pas un héros. Je suis un bâtisseur. Un stratège. Un roi. Et avec ce système… je forgerai une légende.

When Brooks found out she is mated to the alpha prince, Levi Hawthorne, she expected an immediate rejection but instead, he accepted the mate bond, treated her like a queen, and promised to make her his Luna, only to turn around and reject her publicly. The royal council accused her of faking a mate bond and being a spy to an enemy faction so she was expelled from school and banished from the city. Only to find out that she's carrying his baby. Seven years later, she's raising her son with Levi Hawthorne, a permanently closed chapter in her life until he shows up one evening in the rogue's territory that she lives in. He wants her back. He has never wanted to let go of her but Brooks isn't the same 18 year old teenager from years ago. She's no longer docile or soft and she's definitely over him. Levi isn't ready to hear no from her. He lost her once and he'd rather start a war than lose her again.

“You’re ours Lia. Every part of you,” Torin whispered, “This pussy,” he drove deeper, “this mouth,” he brushed his thumb over my lips, “it all belongs to us now.” “So cum for me,” he growled, his voice harsh, “now!” ***** On the night of her twenty-first birthday, Aurelia’s perfect life is shattered. Her family is brutally murdered, her pack overthrown by her treacherous uncle. And the ones she grew up adoring—her foster brothers, Kaelen, Torin, and Rylan, the formidable Lycan triplets—are the very ones who drag her father to his death. As tribute to their victory, Aurelia is stripped of her title and given to them as a prize. A plaything. Thrown at the mercy of the very men who betrayed her. But what happens when fate decides to be cruel? When she discovers she is mated to not just one but all three of them? Faced with an unbearable discovery about her late parents, the lines between enemy and lover becomes blurred, will she choose love over revenge? Or will her rage consume them all?
