Aurora Lancaster, an Omega from the Lemodians, has always loved her small pack, but she can’t ignore the oppressive ranking system. Determined to protect her loved ones from the dangers of her low rank, she enrolls at Oakland University, a prestigious school for high-ranking wolves. But her struggles only intensify as Rebecca celestial, a royal-blooded high-ranking wolf, bullies her relentlessly. At Rebecca’s 22nd birthday party, things take a dark turn when Rebecca sets Aurora up to be drunk and handed over to the Groco twins. Just as things are about to spiral out of control, Aurora is saved by her wolf, Ice, and escapes, unaware that this fateful night will change everything. She crosses paths with Alpha Cali, the powerful, upcoming Alpha of the pack—and Rebecca’s new stepbrother. Cali is immediately intrigued by Aurora, drawn to her in a way he doesn’t fully understand. His interest deepens when he realizes she resembles the girl his younger sister had once drawn, before she died from injuries sustained in a fight. But Rebecca, unable to accept her new stepbrother’s interest in Aurora, becomes increasingly jealous as she secretly loves Cali. Aurora’s life takes another turn when she learns that Celestial, the rival faction, has taken her parents as slaves. With Ice urging her to fight back, Aurora’s fear starts to fade. Alpha Cali offers her a chance for revenge, but only if she becomes his mate. “You want my help?” Cali asks, his voice dark and serious. “Be my mate, and I’ll make sure your parents are freed.”

He was her professor. Her father’s enemy. Her forbidden obsession. Isla Ricci has spent her life trapped in the shadows of the mafia world, forced to play the role of the perfect daughter to one of the most ruthless crime lords. But when she enrolls in university, she believes she has a chance at freedom—until she meets Professor Dominic Valenti. Tall, dark, and dangerously captivating, Dominic isn’t just a professor—he’s the powerful and merciless rival mafia boss her father has sworn to kill. But Isla doesn’t know that yet. Dominic took this position for one reason: revenge. Isla’s father destroyed everything he loved, and now, she’s the perfect pawn in his game of war. But what he never expected was her—fiery, untouchable, and utterly intoxicating. As the tension between them grows, so does the danger. One kiss could ruin them. One betrayal could destroy them both. When Isla discovers the truth, will she run from him—or will she surrender to the man who was never meant to be hers? Love was never part of the plan. But in a world where power rules and blood stains every deal, some obsessions can’t be denied.

Kyla is arranged to be married to Vixen, a powerful mafia boss with an unbroken reputation. To the outside world, he's cold, hard, ruthless, and merciless. She's kind, tender-hearted, beautiful, and caring. Given Vixen's reputation, Kyla doesn't want to fall in love, but soon, she learns that even the coldest hearts have a soft spot, and Vixen's just might be her. And although she doesn't like to admit it, hers might be him. Will they ever find love, or will this be a loveless marriage after all? ------- He raises his fist and I could swear I made a whimpering sound. I turn away and I look at the window as Vixen gets quiet. "Kyla." he says, his cold, hard mask still intact. I look at him, not saying anything, and he shifts in his seat, well aware of why I reacted that way. "Who did it?" he asks. I look down at my hands and I don't reply. "Was it those assholes at the university?" he asks, genuinely concerned. "Kyla?" he says, his fingers brushing against my arm. I jump at his contact and suddenly a tear falls from my eyes. "God." he says as I begin to cry. I can tell he's not used to emotion.... "How was your first day sweetheart?" she asks sincerely. "A couple of frats tried getting in her panties in broad daylight and everyone around was gonna let it happen. How's that sound?" Vixen says, obviously still pissed.

"Yes! I want to be your girlfriend, Kairus Dhan Alvarez. Sinasagot na kita," sigaw ng kaibigan ko. Ouch! Nanigas ako sa kinatayuan ko ng pagpasok ko pa lang sa university kung saan ako nag-aaral, ng marinig ko ang sigaw ng isang pamilyar na boses, o should I say, ng aking best friend. Ang ganda naman ng bungad. Hindi ako makagalaw sa kinatayuan ko. Para akong natulala. Para akong binagsakan ng langit at lupa. "WOAH, CONGRATS NEW COUPLE." Nanlalabo ang paningin ko habang pinagmamasdan ang kaibigan ko at ang lalaking mahal ko. Kitang kita ko kung gaano kasaya si Kairus nang sagutin siya ni Amara. Nagyayakapan silang dalawa, at worst, they kissed each other in front of me. Mas lalong lumakas ang sigawan ng mga tao habang ako naman ay parang nabingi. Hindi ko alam kung anong nararamdaman ko. Basta alam ko lang, unti-unti nang nawawasak ang puso ko. Yumuko ako. Ramdam na ramdam ko ang physical na sakit sa puso ko. "I LOVE YOU, AMARA... SO MUCH!" D@MN! Tuluyan nang nawasak ang puso ko nang marinig ko ang katagang iyon mula sa bibig ng mahal ko na para sa kaibigan ko. Kinagat ko ang aking ibabang labi upang pigilan ang luha na gustong kumawala sa aking mga mata. Dapat handa na ako sa ganito, alam kong darating ang araw na ito, pero p*tangina, bakit parang sobrang sakit? Bakit parang hindi ko kaya? "BESH...!" Kaagad kong pinunasan ang isang butil na luha na tuluyan itong kumawala sa mata ko. Huminga ako ng malalim at saka inangat ang paningin sa kaibigan kong patakbong palapit sa akin na may malaking ngiti. Ngumiti din ako, pero pilit lang. Sinubukan kong maging masaya para hindi siya makahalata. "KAMI NA... I ALREADY SAID YES TO HIM," masaya niyang sabi bago ako niyakap.
