"You drive me insane, pretty Noelle. You test me. You ruin me. Fuck, how do you have so much power over me?" He speaks like he aches, his voice quivering with fire and need. I yank his head back up and kiss him like I'm starving. "I deserve to be punished, don't I, baby? Then punish me," I whisper against his lips. …. Noelle is just a cleaner in a powerful company, surviving a life she didn’t choose… until one reckless night puts her in the bed of the most dangerous man in the city. Azren Lakewood. CEO. Tribrid. Monster. He has blood on his hands, voices in his head, and a darkness that devours everything it touches. He saved her once. Now he wants her completely, obsessively, and without mercy. But Noelle isn’t free. She’s already bound to another Alpha… one who will burn everything down to claim what’s his. And Azren doesn’t share. What starts as a fake marriage quickly turns into something far more dangerous—possession, hunger, and a bond neither of them can break. Because loving Noelle doesn’t just mean war. It means unleashing the beast within, which Azren has spent his life trying to control. The New Order wants his power even at the cost of his own soul, will Noelle, his only light and salvation, be able to save him? And at what cost? …. Warning: Explicit content.

The appointment of Susan Moore as the Broadcasting Channel's executive director has forced out the station's more valued news anchor, sparking heated discussions throughout Hayworth. Susan herself is standing before me right now. She wants to sell her jewelry. As the manager of a luxury boutique store, I'm here to inspect the goods. "These are pieces my partner commissioned for me. I have so many that I'm tired of them." One of them is a diamond-encrusted necklace, featuring a pigeon-blood ruby in the center, worth a few million. There are also several similar gifts on the table, with the crocodile skin bag the least eye-catching one. I smiled. "Your husband must really love you." I set about verifying the purchaser's ID and signature as part of a routine procedure. However, I freeze in place at the sight of the name. "I'm not his wife," she replied, bringing the coffee cup to her lips. "We're just each other's first loves. He said he missed out on 15 years of my life, so he gave me 15 gifts. Isn't that romantic?" It is romantic, indeed. However, it's my father's signature. For 30-plus years, I assumed that my father was a dull man who had never once surprised my mother.

She was supposed to be just a pawn in the games of throne that I played. A nanny for my Damian and perhaps also a little entertainment in my bedchamber as well. Why then did I have to risk it all for her sake? Why then was I willing to take a second chance? She was just a human. I had not felt this way even for my queen, a mighty dragon. *** Draco was a ruthless Dragon King who only cared about power and position. He and Liana were no match. The only thing connecting them was Damian. Damian was Draco's son from his deceased wife, Kiara. And he happened to slip down to the mortal human world. There he was being raised by Liana who saw him as her own son. Things turn difficult when Lucian, Draco's brother start developing feelings towards Liana just like he had for Kiara, in his heart.

Grace White, a weak werewolf with cowardly alpha blood that runs through her veins, is an obedient daughter that strives to stay out of her father’s way and pay her stepmom's hospital fees. Though living with an abusive father, Gracey always finds the time to stop and appreciate life and the joy of being alive. However, when her stepmom’s hospital fees begin to triple, her stresses begin to consume every ounce of joy she has left. Being a girl who lives a life grounded on morals, the thought of selling herself as a house maiden/servant, as her father suggested, to earn enough money, sounds absurd at first. Yet when there seems to be no other option, and her mom’s life hangs in the balance, she decides to sell herself in the largest and most esteemed auction that El Salvador hoists every year. Her mixed feelings towards the auction become subdued, as the moon Goddess gifts her the person she has always dreamt of having. But will he accept her, or hurt her much more than life itself? …but whatever he chooses to do, he needs to remember that: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
