His lips trace a path from my nape to my thighs, holding me down while Caleb pistons his hips into my coated folds. “Ah— R-Ragnar….” A depraved groan escapes my lips, unable to hold back as i thrash under the sheets. His thumb circles my clit. “Do you want us to take turns breeding you, love?” The warmth of his tongue encases my taut buds in a rhythm that kept riding me endlessly to a waiting combustion. “Or do you want us both at the same time?” “Please. Please. Fuck. Yes.” ____ When her brother is murdered on the night of his selection, Thalia Ashen makes a risky choice to impersonate him at the deadliest werewolf academy in existence. Weak, unable to shift properly, and hiding her identity as a woman in an all-male institution, Thalia should have died on her first day. Instead, she catches the attention of two dangerous Alphas, Ragnar, gruff and grumpy, her brother's sworn enemy, and Caleb, an angel with secrets of his own. They discover her deception. Instead of exposing her, they offer a deal, because they too have alternate business within the academy. But as Thalia's power awakens in ways no one expected, she realizes that she is not just an imposter surviving on borrowed time. She is the key to a relic that could reshape the werewolf world—or destroy it. And with the mysteries surrounding the academy, the lines between romance and danger might as well blur into each other.

Time. It’s the only thing every person has – regardless of gender, age, race, and social status. We all have the time.

Despite the lack of confidence in her works, Zoe has big dreams. But her dreams slowly fall in the spiral of her reality when she was diagnosed with a chronic disease. Now, her time is ticking. She has so many things she wants to do and now with her time being limited, she goes out from her comfort zone and starts to explore, wanting to live her life to the fullest before her time is up. Her once dull and boring life turns completely upside down when she met Lucas, a mafia leader. Despite knowing the pending danger that comes with him, she was rather thrilled because why not? She might die tomorrow, or the next day, or even the next few hours. What harm could it be if she falls for a mafia leader when she’s more scared of her condition? And the excitement she rather felt eventually birthed something really unexpected – something that gave her life a new purpose she never imagined she would have.
