Rogues took me while I was protecting my mate, Alpha Arthur. I came back three years later, only to find Arthur mated to my sister, Calista. My son, Leo, didn't recognize me. He only saw Calista as his real mother. Broken, I forced Arthur to banish Calista with the Elders' support, using my past contributions as leverage. But she died in a weak, outlying pack. Poisoned. After her death, Leo hated me for it. Arthur never blamed me, though. He just kept telling me everything would be okay. But when our pack was attacked again, he threw me to our enemies without hesitation. Left me to die. As I lay dying, I heard him snarl through gritted teeth. "If you hadn't come back, Calista would have been my mate for life!" My heart turned to ash. Then, I opened my eyes. I was back. Back to the day I returned after being gone for three years. This time, I looked at Arthur shielding Calista, with Leo clinging to her. "I sever our mate bond. From this day on, I am done with all of you."

"Our marriage would end the ongoing war of Lycans and wolves." She said, looking the Alpha dead in the eye. "As long as you know to mind your limits, I am sure the two of us will not be having a problem." He said coldly. ********************** In a time when the wars of Wolves and Lycans seemed to be endless. The elders and Alphas were forced to take action. A marriage bond was to bind both. But with no mating bond involved, would the Capo dei Capi, Alpha Arturo de' Medici, accept his wife and Luna Sienna Moretti? Or would the neverending wars start again?

Mi hermana, Lily, fue despedazada por renegados. Lloré desconsoladamente, suplicándole a mi compañero destinado, el Alfa Ethan, que encontrara a sus asesinos. Nunca lo hizo. Un año después, en el aniversario de su muerte. Fui a buscar a Ethan, lista para decirle que estaba embarazada. En su lugar, lo encontré sosteniendo a otra Omega, Bella, en sus brazos. —No te preocupes —la consolaba él—. Nadie se enterará de que quitaste el escudo mental de la manada y provocaste la muerte de Lily. Una vez que Harper renuncie a su título de Luna en la ceremonia, tú serás mi única y verdadera compañera. Mi corazón se hizo añicos. Así que era eso. Nunca me marcó, nunca me rechazó… quería que yo renunciara por mi cuenta. Estaba protegiendo a la asesina de mi hermana. Quería convertirla en Luna. Entré furiosa, gritando, pero de repente Bella tosió sangre y se desplomó. Envenenamiento por acónito, afirmó ella. —¡La envenenaron para salvarme! ¡Dame la sangre de tu corazón! ¡Es lo único que puede salvarla! Ethan me miró con más asco como si yo fuera basura. —¡Estoy embarazada! ¡Eso matará al cachorro! —supliqué. Pero su Comando de Alfa cayó sobre mí. Mi cuerpo ya no me pertenecía. Solo pude observar cómo la gruesa aguja perforaba mi pecho, justo encima de mi corazón. Sangre dorada fluyó. Un dolor agudo y desgarrador atravesó mi vientre… Había matado a mi cachorro. Mi loba se hizo pedazos dentro de mí. Cerré los ojos, buscando una conexión prohibida en el mundo de los hombres lobo. —Rey Licántropo Rogan. Mañana necesito que me ayudes a destruir todo en la manada Bosque Negro. Incluyendo al Alfa Ethan.

Mi familia es humana. Sin embargo, se nos concedió una larga vida por el clan Thorne, algo cercano a la inmortalidad. Durante generaciones, hemos sido sus guardianes más leales. Y yo me enamoré de Cedric, el Lord vampiro al que juré proteger. Durante cien años, fui su secreto. Su pecado. Su única compañera de lecho. Fui su escudo contra la magia oscura. La protectora jurada de su vasto clan. Pensé que me ganaría la marca de un vínculo eterno. Incluso estaba lista para que me transformara. Después de todo, en cada luna de sangre, él reclamaba mi cuerpo. Y en el punto álgido de un placer agonizante, hundía sus colmillos en mi cuello y bebía mi sangre. Luego presionaba sus fríos labios contra mi piel y susurraba que yo era su única y verdadera. Que ninguna otra sangre, ningún otro cuerpo, podía hacerle perder el control de la forma en que yo lo hacía. Pero esta vez, en el momento en que terminó conmigo, anunció su vínculo eterno con Elsie, la princesa de sangre pura del clan Valerius. Por si fuera poco, sonrió con suficiencia ante el shock en mi rostro. —Tú eres solo una humana, bendecida con una larga vida por mis ancestros. Mi calentadora de cama. No creíste de verdad que podrías ser mi compañera, ¿verdad? En ese momento, lo entendí. Yo solo era una bolsa de sangre renovable. Una herramienta con un propósito. Por una alianza, por ella, me sacrificó. Me arrojó al abismo y dejó que la oscuridad me devorara por completo. Pensó que el Pacto del Guardián me encadenaría a él por la eternidad. Pero olvidó algo. Todo pacto tiene una brecha. Así que destruí todo lo que alguna vez me dio. Y luego, con la ayuda de mi familia, desaparecí. Pero cuando el Lord de la Noche Eterna no pudo encontrar a su juguete favorito… enloqueció.

"Kau bukan kriteriaku, Crys." Brandon berkata tegas. Tatapan nyalang oleh amarah. "Aku menyukai perempuan yang be--" "Perempuan muda, berusia sekitar 20-22 tahun." Crystal memotong dengan cepat. "Sedangkan aku berumur sudah seperempat abad. Aku cukup tua dan tidak akan masuk menjadi kriteria utama wanita pilihanmu." Crystal menyeringai meremehkan. "Ah, kau juga mencari wanita muda yang agresif dan berpengalaman, 'kan?" "Sedangkan aku masih belum pernah tidur dengan pria mana pun selama ini. Jadi, kau merasa aku akan sulit mengimbangimu." "Aku bodoh karena aku ingin dirimu yang pertama memilikiku seutuhnya, tapi kau sama sekali tidak tertarik denganku, Uncle." Crystal berdecak sinis. Namun, kontras akan matanya yang sudah berkaca-kaca. Ia sendiri benci harus menunjukkan kemarahannya dengan cara seperti ini. Akan terlihat lemah. "Aku hanya bisa minta maaf. Aku tidak dapat memberikanmu kesempatanmu untuk lebih menyukaiku, Crys. Itu adalah kesalahan." Brandon mulai melunak, suaranya melembut. "Kau akan tetap menjadi keponakanku, ti--" "Dan, aku akan membuatmu pada akhirnya menyukaiku. Memintaku untuk menjadi milikmu seorang." Crystal berujar mantap. "Aku pasti bersedia mengubah statusmu dari paman menjadi suamiku," imbuhnya dengan suara penuh keyakinan dan ambisius. ………………… Crystal Smith dan Brandon Smith, memang memiliki nama belakang keluarga yang sama, tetapi mereka tidak ada hubungan darah sedikit pun. Hanya secara hukum saja Brandon berstatus sebagai pamannya. Jadi, Crystal membiarkan rasa cinta tumbuh untuk pria yang sepuluh tahun lebih tua darinya. Walau, tidak berbalas sama sekali. Namun, Crystal pantang menyerah dengan apa yang diinginkannya. Dikerahkan berbagai cara agar dapat mengklaim Brandon sebagai miliknya. ………….

"Why do you want to be my bride so badly?" he questioned, his mesmerizing eyes locked Crystal's. Crystal shook her head, reminding herself of her goal. "To marry someone like you, an angel from heaven. Marrying you would be, no doubt, a blessing." She stammered, looking away. He leaned closer to her; his breath grazed her skin. "An angel?" he chuckled deviously. "Are you sure, I'm an angel?" Crystal Fei was a fiery woman with a thirst for revenge. For ten years, she has been looking for the culprit who caused her brother's death at all costs. Finally, when she was on the brink of hopelessness, a man reached out, promising her revenge on that person. But what game did fate play on Crystal when she was tasked to steal his heart in an undercover mission to avenge her brother? Will it still be a game of pretense when she looked into his eyes. The eyes that was so sharp and mysterious, his eyes that pierced her heart.

As the heir to the North's most powerful pack, I must choose my mate from the three rival Alphas. My heart had already chosen. Alpha Ethan. He was my destiny. Our mate bond was a roaring fire, impossible to ignore. But just days before the Mating Ceremony, we were ambushed by rogues. Everything went black. When I woke up, a new wolf was howling in my soul. Nyx. She claimed to be from my past life. And she was screaming in my head, begging me not to choose Ethan. "He'll kill you! Him and that bitch Clara. They'll steal everything you have! Arthur is the one you have to choose!" Arthur? The cursed Alpha doomed to die before he turns twenty-five?

I got pregnant at the same time as Sabine, my blood-mate Draven’s first love. But her child wasn't his. It was a werewolf mongrel—the spawn of our clan's sworn enemy. To protect her, Draven claimed the mongrel as his own. He named it the heir to our clan. And my child, a true pureblood, was branded a bastard. By his own father. "Isolde," he gripped my hand, his golden eyes pleading. "Sabine is alone. The Elders will execute her. This is temporary. Trust me!" I was a fool. I believed him. While he was gone, escorting her to safety, his parents dragged me to the ritual chamber. They forced the cruel "Blood Purification" on me. By the time he returned, I was gone. And our child was dead.
