Cursed Crown: Chapter 5 Novels & Stories

Layla is a human slave who is mocked for being useless, ugly, overweight, and completely insignificant. She should never have been anywhere near the wolves’ sacred mating ritual, but one wrong turn drops her right in the middle of it. And, of course, she unknowingly sits in the one place no wolf dares to go: beside the infamous Cursed Alpha Prince. Scarred. Cold. Silent. Lucian Stark is the Alpha King’s undefeated warrior. A wolf so feared that even the King watches his steps around him. The moment their eyes meet, the mate bond snaps to life. The kingdom freezes in horror. A human slave? Mated to him? To the monster whose last nineteen mates died before the next full moon? Unluckily, Layla becomes the twentieth. So now the only question that matters is…Will she survive what none of the others could, or is she already living on borrowed time?

For years, Lyra was the prophecy. She had the red hair, the green eyes, and the singular destiny: to become Luna and bring unrivaled power to the Incarnadine Pack. She dedicated her life to Alpha Rhys, trading her orphan past for a powerful future. But on the day of their engagement, Rhys shattered her world with a single, cruel declaration. He presented a perfect, prettier copy of Lyra —and publicly rejected his rightful Luna. Cast out, ridiculed, and targeted for death by the very pack she was meant to rule, Lyra ’s only path to survival was the most reckless gamble in the Land of Verdentia: she submitted her name for the Alpha King’s Luna Selection. The prize is a crown. The cost is suicide. King Kian is dark, cold, and rumored to be cursed. Every she-wolf fears his name, yet Lyra is determined to earn his terrifying affection. She must. His power is the only shield strong enough to stop her former pack from tearing her apart. But just as Lyra begins to melt the ice around the King’s heart, a desperate Rhys realizes the devastating secret he threw away and comes crawling back, determined to reclaim his Luna. He discovers, however, that the Cursed King is fiercely territorial. “Lay a hand on my Luna,” Kian snarls, his voice a promise of utter destruction, “and I’ll destroy you and your entire pack.” Lyra survived one betrayal. Can she survive a King’s obsession, and a former Alpha’s desperate regret, without losing her soul entirely?

“I, Alpha King Lucian, reject you; Bree Shipman as my mate,” Lucian growled and pinned her to the wall. “After all we did?” Bree broke into tears. “All of that was a mistake, I will never be with a woman like you. You are a slave and a murderer,” he yelled. “I didn’t kill her,” Bree retorted. *** Bree Shipman is a girl who went from being a princess to working as a slave for the alpha king of another pack.

Eira Silverclaw’s heart shattered as she stood before the man she had given everything to—the man she had loved, trusted, and sacrificed for. For three years, she had poured her soul into their marriage, taking on responsibilities beyond her own, all for the sake of their pack’s future. But now, on the third anniversary of their union, everything she had worked for was crumbling in an instant. Her husband, Alpha Kieran Blackthorn, was no longer the man she had married. The pride in his eyes as he gazed at the woman he brought home—his mistress, pregnant with his child—was a dagger to her heart. The audacity of his words, cold and calculated, rang in her ears. “She is pregnant with our child. Since you couldn’t afford to give birth for three years, her child will be ours too. The three of us. Now, you should refer to her as a younger sister.” Her breath caught in her throat. "Shameless." The word echoed in her mind, but she couldn’t speak it aloud. What could she say? Her world was falling apart, and he was only adding salt to the wound. With her marriage falling apart, Eira wasn’t the type to let anyone decide her fate—not even the man who had once been everything to her. “Marry me, Magnus Ironfang.” She looked into the eyes of her husband’s most dangerous rival—the cursed Alpha of the North. Cold, ruthless, and feared by all, Magnus was the last man anyone would expect her to turn to. But with her marriage in ruins and her heart broken, what did she have left to lose?

For generations, every male born into the Black bloodline has shared the same fate: find their mate, love her, kill her. The entire werewolf world knows the story of the cursed Alpha twins. Vegas Black—the cold, controlled Alpha who tracks every detail of his life to make sure he never becomes his father. Virgo Black—the feared twin with a feral wolf and emotions so intense they destroy everything they touch. Together, they rule Shadow Pack with strict rules, emotional distance, and one promise: They will never take another mate. Then eighteen-year-old Kalani Taylor walks into their lives. Kalani has enough problems of her own. She still hasn’t shifted, but that hasn’t stopped her from becoming the strongest warrior in Dark Falls or pursuing her dream of becoming a pack doctor. So when she discovers she’s mated to both cursed Alpha twins she doesn’t feel chosen. She feels sentenced. After their first mate died, everyone believes history will repeat itself. Including the twins. Forced to leave her pack and move into Shadow Pack with only her best friend beside her, Kalani quickly realizes something terrifying the curse didn’t just destroy the Black family. It changed an entire pack. People obey, nobody gets close. Love is treated like weakness. And the closer she gets to Vegas and Virgo, the more impossible it becomes to tell where the curse ends… and where fear begins. Because surviving the cursed Alpha twins might be easy. Getting them to let themselves be loved? That may be impossible.

She died unloved, betrayed by her fated mate, but death was only the beginning. Tatsumi Duskwood was the weakest among her pack; a voiceless Omega who was used, discarded, and then killed for a crime she did not commit. Her own mate watched her bleed under the bright full moon without a single shred of remorse, while her best friend delivered the final blow. But fate wasn't done with her. She is back, and she is back stronger. One heart, three Alphas, and multiple betrayals. Who can she finally trust?
