Derek Shepherd X Reader Novels & Stories

Lisa was supposed to be the pride of her pack—the perfect heir, the next great alpha. But fate had other plans. "A defective wolf," they called her. "A disgrace." Born with a wolf that refused to shift, Lisa lived under the shadow of her father’s disappointment and her pack’s whispers. But nothing could have prepared her for the betrayal that led to her capture. Now, locked in a dungeon, she’s nothing more than a pawn in Alpha Cole’s twisted game. "You have been chosen as the breeder," the prisoner in the next cell murmurs. "None survived before you." Lisa refuses to accept this fate. She’d rather die than be used. But when the prisoner—Derek, a powerful fallen alpha—offers her a dangerous escape plan, she’s forced to make a choice. "Trust me," Derek says, his red eyes glowing in the dark. "Or stay and find out what happens when they come for you." Lisa doesn’t trust alphas. But if she wants to live, she might have no other choice.

However, tension rises with the arrival of Derek, Luca’s dangerous and resentful brother, who desires her and seeks to challenge Luca for power. Amid palace politics and hidden threats, she faces a near assault from Derek but is saved by Luca, reinforcing their bond. Shortly after, she collapses and discovers she is pregnant with twins, bringing both joy and fear. The situation becomes more intense when a doctor reveals that using her healing powers during pregnancy could kill her—just like it did to a former queen.
