“You want to sever our mating bond? Just because of a mistress, Jasmine?” Logan sneered, his eyes blazing red from anger. I couldn’t believe the monstrous man barking before me was the man I once cherished—my husband. “It seems you’ve forgotten my uncle is the Alpha of this pack. You can’t win this, Jasmine. Stay in this marriage and save yourself from the humiliation of being expelled.” —- Jasmine’s seemingly perfect marriage is on the brink of collapsing after she discovers a shocking truth: she’s not the only lover in her husband’s life. The betrayal cuts even deeper when she finds out her best friend is the secret mistress. This shatters the trust and loyalty that once held their mating bond. Determined to sever their bond and start anew, she serves him divorce papers. But nothing prepares her for a stunning reversal; her husband turns the tables, falsely accusing her of infidelity. She’s on the verge of facing the punishment that comes with infidelity in her pack—a shameful expulsion. Just as her hope wears out, the stark reality of her fate about to dawn on her, a potential savior emerges: her fated mate, who happens to be the powerful Alpha of their pack, in whose hands lies the fate of Jasmine. He must choose between loyalty to his bloodline and protecting his long-awaited fated mate. Will he save Jasmine from ruins? or will he protect his bloodline and turn his back against her? As this inspiring journey unfolds, Jasmine’s love, loyalty, and resilience are pushed to the limit while she struggles to find her feet again and fight those who wronged her.

Mi hermana me envenenó. Todo porque su compañero del destino no le llegaba ni a los talones al mío. Ahora estoy de vuelta en el lugar donde todo comenzó. En la ceremonia de unión, hace cinco años. En mi vida anterior, Sarah y yo elegimos a nuestros compañeros en la gala de la Alianza de Manadas. Sarah eligió a Damon, el Alfa más poderoso y futuro líder de la Alianza. Pero nunca pudo darle un cachorro. Damon la despreciaba. La maltrataba. Incluso se volvía salvaje cuando perdía el control por su maldición y estuvo a punto de matarla. Me empujó hacia Liam, el Alfa de una manada en decadencia. Sarah nunca se imaginó que el poder de Liam estallaría, ni que un día le arrebataría el título de Gran Alfa a Damon. Entonces, el día de la coronación de Liam, Sarah me envenenó por puros celos. Abrí los ojos de nuevo. Estábamos otra vez en la ceremonia de elección de compañeros. Sarah habló con firmeza frente a todos los invitados. —Elijo a Liam. A mí me empujaron hacia Damon, su excompañero. Pero en ese momento escuché su grito interno. “Muérete, Elena. ¡Solo muérete! Tú y ese lobo rabioso de Damon pueden irse al diablo juntos. Liam será el Gran Alfa de todos modos y yo seré la Luna suprema”. Pero yo solo sonreí con burla mientras caía en los brazos de Damon. Sarah no tenía idea. El “compañero perfecto” que había elegido ya estaba planeando cómo devorarle hasta el alma.

“Our marriage is never going to be a real one,” Irina said, looking at the Rogue who was betrothed to her. “As long as you fulfill your part of the deal, it doesn’t have to be.” Alpha Kai said, his eyes hardening as he took a step back. “I’ll see you walking down the aisle. Until then, I suggest that you think wisely of your choices…” *********************************** Forced to marry a rogue at the ripe age of twenty, Irina finds herself stuck between two choices. Either give the Rogue Alpha a child and be loyal to him or her save her family from the wrath of the Medici who was more than willing to get his revenge from her father over a debt of years.

“Let me leave!” She yelled, trying to fight off the men who held her down. “I am not going to…” “You are the Alpha’s property now.” They said, silencing her. “Only HE will decide what is to be of you…” ************************** There is one place in the world where you enter a slave and turn into a Luna. And that place is the Alpha’s estate. The Estate where dreams and nightmares can come true. For they say, it is you who draws your fate when it comes to the harem. For it can be both your heaven or hell. But what fate can one draw when they are claimed as slaves? It is the question that Alexandra asked as she came face to face with none other than her mate. The Alpha of Alphas. Alpha Damien…

Mon compagnon destiné, Dexter, est devenu le roi Alpha lorsque son frère est mort. Il a hérité de la couronne, du pouvoir… et de la compagne veuve de son frère, Jenica. Tout cela parce que moi, une hybride, n'avais pas réussi pendant des années à lui donner un héritier de sang pur. Il m'a dit qu'il devait marquer Jenica, et la douleur m'a presque brisée. Mais il m'a serrée contre lui, a embrassé mes larmes et a juré que son loup, son destin, ne m'avait choisie que moi. Que je serais toujours sa seule et unique Luna. Je lui ai cru. Et pourtant, il passait encore toutes les nuits dans le lit de Jenica. Puis, Jenica est tombée enceinte. Alors que la meute célébrait, Dexter m'a forcée à quitter la suite de la Luna, uniquement pour que son petit soit né dans l'aura lunaire la plus pure de la meute. Alors que je sentais notre lien se déliter fil par fil douloureusement, j'ai envoyé un message codé à un ami dans le monde des humains. « Dans quatre jours, fais-moi sortir. » Cette nuit-là, j'ai fait un choix. Mon temps en tant que sa compagne était terminé.

This book is a Standalone, you don't have to read the first two to relate to what happened, though I do recommend it. Book Three of the Bloodlust Series “Is this some kind of joke?” Kiara asked frowning in confusion, waking up in the familiar podium where she once grew up watching people die in front of her as she herself fought for her own life. “I don’t know, but I don’t like this” Richard said from beside Kiara. The two were trying to process how they even got here to begin with. People around them started coming to their senses as they woke up inside the podium. “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Bloodlust Games, The final chapter” ************************* Re-entering the Bloodlust games was never an option in Kiara’s life. But when revenge is on the line and both she and Richard are forced into them, they have nothing to do but survive, for it was either play and live. Or die…

I was reborn the year the Blood Moon War began. The first thing I did? I sacrificed my child. The child of my blood-bonded mate, Lord Lucius of the Covenant. In my last life, he chose to protect his childhood sweetheart, Lilith, when she slept with a werewolf. He stole my pureblood heir and replaced it with her half-breed mongrel. They branded me a traitor. In a sun-scorched dungeon, they burned my scarred body to ash with holy light. And my own son, his mind poisoned by Lilith, stood on my ashes and cursed me to Hell for all eternity. When I opened my eyes again, the blood ritual for my heir was already three months along. I didn't hesitate. I went straight to a witch, and with a potion brewed from my own heart's blood, I ended it. Then, I put on something else: an expensive amulet of Blood Illusion. It faked the energy of a pureblood fetus. It masked my true state, cloaking me in the sweet, alluring scent of a pregnant vampire. It even created a perfect illusion of a growing belly. Lucius needed an heir to cover for Lilith’s crime. Fine. I’d play along. This time, I had no weaknesses.

Je suis née sans louve intérieure. À l'académie, Arabella m'a fait vivre un enfer à cause de ça. Quand j'ai obtenu mon diplôme, ma louve s'est enfin éveillée, me dotant de puissants pouvoirs de guérison. J'ai cru que le cauchemar était enfin terminé. J'ai rencontré mon âme sœur, l'Alpha Tristan. Il était puissant, magnifique, et m'a promis la lune et les étoiles. Mais le jour où je suis allée annoncer à Tristan que j'étais enceinte, j'ai découvert son terrible mensonge. Ce n'était jamais Tristan dans mon lit. C'était son frère jumeau, Ronan. L'Alpha renégat qui avait abandonné la tribu des années plus tôt pour vivre parmi les humains. Ronan a utilisé un imitateur d'odeur pour se glisser dans mon lit, pour me rendre enceinte. Tout n'était qu'un complot pour m'humilier le jour le plus important. Ils voulaient se venger d'Arabella, qui avait menti et m'avait accusée de l'avoir harcelée. Ils voulaient me détruire. J'ai fait irruption dans le bureau pour les affronter. Je leur ai dit que j'allais tout révéler et exiger des excuses. Cependant, ils m'ont emprisonnée. Ils ont accompli un rituel obscur, transférant ma louve vers Arabella. Ils ont drainé ma force vitale et tué mon petit à naître. Je suis morte dans d'atroces souffrances. Puis j'ai ouvert les yeux. J'étais de retour au jour où j'avais découvert que j'étais enceinte. Je serrais mon ventre contre moi, une larme coulant sur ma joue. Ces salauds allaient payer pour ce qu'ils avaient fait.

When my father asked me to choose between the two Lewis brothers I had grown up with to get married to, I chose Joseph Lewis. He was the man I had secretly loved for 13 years. But on the day of our wedding, his stepsister, Jessica Lewis, leaped off the rooftop of the hotel. She left behind a letter written in blood, blessing Joseph and me with a lifetime of love and happiness. It was only then that I learned that the two of them had been secretly in love for years. At the wedding, Joseph lost control in front of everyone, declaring that he would no longer be concerned with any worldly affairs. I was left standing helplessly in place. For the rest of his life, he lived in guilt, keeping vigil beside Jessica's grave. I resented his deceit, yet stubbornly clung to our marriage, and we tormented each other for years. This went on until we were kidnapped one day. To save me, he perished together with the kidnappers. Before he died, he looked at me and said, "Evelyn, it was wrong of me to keep it from you. But now that both Jessica and I are gone, that should settle the debt, shouldn't it? If there's a next time, don't choose me again." Then, I reopen my eyes to see that I have returned to the day when my father asked me to choose my fiance. This time, I will firmly choose his elder brother, Theodore Lewis.

Dexter, mi compañero destinado, se convirtió en el Rey Alfa cuando su hermano murió. No solo heredó la corona y el poder, sino también a Jenica, la viuda de su hermano. Todo porque yo, por ser una mestiza, no había podido darle un heredero de sangre pura en todos estos años. Me dijo que tenía que marcar a Jenica y sentí que el alma se me partía. Aun así, me abrazó con fuerza, secó mis lágrimas con sus besos y juró que su lobo y su destino solo me pertenecían a mí; que yo siempre sería su única Luna. Le creí. Pero, a pesar de sus promesas, él seguía pasando cada noche en la cama de ella. Entonces, Jenica quedó esperando cachorros. Mientras la manada celebraba, Dexter me obligó a dejar la suite de la Luna; quería que su cachorro naciera bajo el aura lunar más pura de la manada. Sentí cómo nuestro vínculo se deshacía dolorosamente, hilo por hilo, así que le envié un último mensaje en clave a un amigo del mundo humano. “Sácame de aquí en cuatro días”. Esa noche tomé una decisión. Mi tiempo como su compañera había terminado.
