Mi esposo, Damien Falcone, tenía noventa y nueve amantes. Y yo era la princesa de la mafia por la que los hombres hacían fila para ofrecerme su vida. El día que empezamos a salir, todos en nuestro grupo hicieron apuestas. Decían que no duraríamos ni tres meses. Pero entonces, todo cambió. Por mí, bloqueó a todas de su celular, construyó una mansión y se arrodilló para pedir mi mano. Luego, en nuestra noche de bodas, me dijo que quería un matrimonio abierto. —Podemos estar con otras personas, si queremos. Pero la lealtad… es solo para nosotros. Acepté. Y entonces apareció su amante número cien, Sophia Ricci. Traicionó a nuestra familia en un trato de armas. Casi le cuesta la vida a mi padre. Pero Damien la protegió. Incluso la metió a vivir en nuestra casa. Así que hice lo que cualquier princesa de la mafia con el corazón roto haría: me emborraché y desperté en la cama de otro. Lo que no sabía era que ese hombre era el tío de Damien.

Two brothers. One mate. And a heart-wrenching betrayal that will transform their once-unbreakable bond into an arena of resentment and heartache. While exchanging her wedding vows, Hazel’s wedding is interrupted when a man she has only heard about, storms in, claiming her as collateral to settle a debt owed to him by her father.

Just as she decides to settle for one mate, an act of betrayal forces them apart, but can they overcome the challenges of deception and find their way back to each other, or will it take the union of Hazel’s two mates to heal the scars of the past and repair what’s been broken???

Stella and I are at a college party and man, it’s so bad ass. This is our first college party and Stella’sm first party ever. Are you having fun, sister? I ask her. Yes, I really am. My sister Stella is your quiet, stay to herself kind of gal. Where I am that loud in your face kind of girl. So, it’s not weird seeing a beer in my hands and dancing my ass off with my friends or my hot as hell boyfriend Jax. What’s weird is seeing my sister with a beer in hand and dancing to the music, getting her freak on with a strange guy. I’m glad my twin is letting her freak fly tonight. We are going to be seniors when school starts and damn; we need to make a name for ourselves. Being the quiet ass bitch is only going to get her picked on. Jax comes up behind me, moving his hips to the music. Want to go upstairs he asks after a minute of grinding against my ass. Um, yes, I do. I say, wiggling my ass against his front. I’m going to go upstairs with Jax for a bit. Do you think you will be okay while I’m gone? I ask Stella. She just gives me a look that says piss off, asshole. I throw up my hands in surrender. Okay, I say, wiggling my brows. Get it, girl. I tell Stella. Stella just smiles at me. Ditto sister, she says, wiggling her fingers at me. I laugh and grab my boyfriend’s hand and drag him upstairs. When we find a room upstairs, I slam Jax against the wall and kiss him fiercely. Damn baby, did you miss me? Jax asks, smiling.

It’s Monday and my first day of my new school. I drive my car around to where everyone else is parked, so I find myself a parking spot. Then I find the front office and go in and get my schedule. My first class is math, so I walk into the room and I’m the first one in there so I walk up to the teacher and hand him my paper to sign that I have to take back to the front office this afternoon. “Hello Miss. Billie Green I’m Mrs. Smart. It’s very nice to meet you.” The math teacher says, then sings the paper. You can go find yourself a set. I would try to find one in the front on the left-hand side. The kids pretty much already have the back full.” She tells me, and really it’s okay. I kinda like the front anyway. I make my way to a seat that looks vacant and sit down. Kids start piling in about five minutes later. And walking to their seats, there’s a tiny little girl that comes and seats down behind me. She introduces herself as Shaylee Apple. “Hello Shaylee Apple I’m Billie Green.” I tell her and hold my hand out to shake hers. I turn back around in my seat about the same time as a tall guy that has dirty blonde hair cut into spikes all over, ash gray eyes, so gray I can see the color all the way in my seat. He’s wearing a tight fitted gray shirt, and blue jeans. He has a very handsome face, but then he looks at me and instantly I see hatred in his eyes. What the heck, he doesn’t even know me. .

J'étais une gamine des bas-fonds quand je suis tombée amoureuse de Damon Vitale, le Parrain le plus redouté de Paris. Pendant cinq ans, j'ai été à lui. J'ai encaissé neuf balles pour lui. Il embrassait mes cicatrices pendant que je me vidais de mon sang pour lui. Il me serrait contre lui. Il passait le collier de la reine autour de mon cou. Puis, une fois remise, il me baisait jusqu'à me faire perdre toute notion de moi-même, avec une passion qui donnait l'illusion de l'éternité. Je croyais que nous passerions nos vies ensemble. Je pensais qu'il m'épouserait. Mais lors de notre neuf cent quatre-vingt-dix-neuvième nuit ensemble, il m'a annoncé qu'il était fiancé. À Bianca, une princesse de la mafia issue d'une famille rivale. J'ai avalé mes larmes. Il s'est contenté de m'attraper par le menton, de souffler la fumée à mon visage et de rire. « Tu n'as quand même pas cru que tu pourrais m'épouser, n'est-ce pas, Nora ? Soyons clairs. On baise. C'est tout. Tu n'es pas une partenaire. Tu es une œuvre d'art que je collectionne. Une chatte qui m'appartient. » Une chatte. C'est tout ce qu'il a jamais voulu que je sois. Alors j'ai attrapé un téléphone jetable. « J'accepte ton offre. Trois jours. Sors-moi de Paris. »

I was a genius alchemist, but my mate, Alpha Clark, engineered my failure 99 times, shattering my reputation. He siphoned my very soul 99 times to gift it to another she-wolf, Layla, molding her into the Alchemy Master I was meant to be. He claimed Layla was his savior, that he owed her his life. It wasn't until I uncovered his betrayal and severed our bond that he learned the truth: I was the one who had saved him. Those scars on my back—the ones he scorned? They were the price I paid for his life. After I walked away, he knelt for 99 days, begging for me to return. But some betrayals can never be forgiven.

Lyra is an Omega who could not shift into her wolf form. Her life is just a shell lying in ruins since a strange disease wiped out her entire pack and left her the only survivor. That was when Devon came along and rescued her. Her mate, and her nightmare. Devon never wanted a weak one as his future Luna but he couldn't reject this little omega due to the King's law. He bruised her, tormented her, and treated her like the dirt beneath his shoe. However, when he finally got rid of this weak omega, he could never expect what treasure he had missed. Lyra had no time to celebrate her escape from hell when fate sent a new mockery. Her second mate turned out to be the even mightier Lycan King Julian, and he also refused to announce her as his mate but turned her to be his private slave.

Mon compagnon, l'Alpha Lucien, était en train de m'embrasser quand j'ai surpris ce message dans sa liaison mentale : « Ma douce petite louve. Papa va déménager avec toi et Maman dans la nouvelle villa demain. Je l'ai construite spécialement pour toi. » C'est à ce moment que j'ai compris. La villa pour laquelle il avait dépensé une fortune de l'argent de ma meute... était un nid d'amour. Pour son bâtard et sa putain, Claire. Il n'a même pas remarqué que j'étais devenue de glace, trop occupé à se vanter de sa réélection en tant que Président de l'Alliance. Il était Président depuis quatre ans. Tout le monde pensait sa réélection acquise. Mais cet imbécile avait oublié. Il n'était l'Alpha le plus puissant que grâce à moi. Il n'était Président que grâce à moi. Grâce à ma Meute de la Lune d'Argent. Grâce à mon lignage. Je l'ai repoussé. J'ai envoyé d'urgence une liaison mentale à mon père : « Lucien a trahi le lignage de la Lune d'Argent. Lui et cette sal*pe d'oméga... ils vont mourir. »

Alpha Roman of the Greycrest Pack is under relentless pressure. For years, his pack has demanded he choose a mate—someone worthy of becoming Luna and securing the pack’s future. But Roman has always refused. His wolf won’t accept just anyone. It’s waiting…for her. Just as he’s on the verge of giving in to duty, everything changes. A chance collision in the city brings him face-to-face with Maya Scott, a woman who has no idea his world exists. The bond hits instantly—sharp, undeniable, consuming. She’s his mate. And Roman wants her. But where he feels certainty, Maya feels nothing but confusion. To her, he’s just an intense, dangerously attractive billionaire who seems to have decided she belongs to him after a single meeting. As Roman struggles to win her over without revealing the truth about what he is, unrest brews within Greycrest. A human Luna is unthinkable—an insult to tradition and a risk the pack may not survive. Whispers turn to schemes, and powerful enemies begin to circle. Now, Roman must protect the woman fate has bound to him, even as she resists the world he’s trying to pull her into. Because claiming her could cost him everything— …and losing her isn’t an option.

I was born a fragile omega, but my gift of prophecy made me the Saintess of the Northern Packs. The Council of Elders demanded I choose a mate from the Alphas of the great packs. The Alpha I chose was destined to lead the North to victory and be crowned the Alpha King. I chose Alpha Kane without hesitation. He'd saved my life once. On the day of our bonding ceremony, I blushed and trembled as he sank his teeth into my neck. But the moment we were bonded, his true love Scarlett, his childhood Beta, went mad with jealousy. She tried to poison me, and for her crime, the Elders exiled her. She died on the road. And I? I used my prophecies to help Kane win the war, to put him on the throne. After his coronation, he plunged a silver blade into my heart. He murdered me. "Why didn't you save her?! Why didn't you save her?!" Only then did I realize. He'd hated me all along. I opened my eyes again... and I was back. Back on the day I had to choose my Alpha mate. He stood before me, arrogant as ever. He didn't lose his mind until he found out I chose a cursed Alpha. I watched him kneel, begging for my forgiveness. But this life, there would be no prophecies from me. Let’s see how he survives the war now.
