By year's end, I'd closed a huge deal and snagged a $2.5 million bonus. The company even sent me on early maternity leave—nice perk for being eight months pregnant. Pauline found me lounging on the couch. "Why aren't you at work?" I cracked a joke. "Got fired. Guess I'll be stuck here playing housewife." Her response? A slap across my back. "Then get off and do the laundry! You're having a girl, not a son, and you think you can sit around like some princess?" My husband, Logan, walked in right then. He just pulled her into the nursery. Feeling hurt, I switched on the hidden cameras I'd secretly installed. I thought maybe he'd defend me. Yeah, no. What I uncovered? It was so much worse. Twisted secret after twisted secret.

After years of struggling to survive, Akayda Jordan finally lands her dream job — personal assistant/secretary in one of the best companies in the whole of California. To celebrate her new beginning, she decides to give one last “performance” at the elite club she’s about to leave behind. One night. One masked encounter. One forbidden act. But fate twists cruelly. The man she had danced for in the dark turns out to be her new boss — Damian Knight. He’s engaged. She’s desperate to keep her secret buried. But when Damian starts sensing something achingly familiar about his new assistant — the scent of her perfume, the way she looks away when he stares too long — the walls between them begin to crack. But he was sure the girl with the big glasses was not the girl with the mask and firefly tattoo who had woken up a hunger in him. Soon, professionalism turns into tension. Tension turns into temptation. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more dangerous her secret becomes. Because if Damian ever discovers she’s the masked girl he’s been searching for… she might lose not just her job, but her heart.

My wolf awakened on my eighteenth birthday. Soon after, the Feral Curse tore through the werewolf world. The curse nearly claimed me, but a young Alpha, Lachlan, saved my life. He brought me to his pack. His parents, the Alpha and Luna, took me in. They gave me the best room in the pack house and treated me like the daughter they never had. Lachlan never left my side. He risked catching the curse himself, patiently feeding me potions one sip at a time. His wolf knew. I was his fated mate. I was the envy of the pack. I had an Alpha's total devotion. Then one day, Lachlan knelt before me. In his hands was the Moonstone necklace—the symbol of every Luna who came before me. He held me tight, whispering a promise to show the world that I belonged to him, and him alone. I accepted the necklace. But that night, I twisted his love into a poison. A poison I used to murder his parents and eighteen of their loyal retainers.

Minha irmã, Lily, foi despedaçada por renegados. Eu soluçava, implorando ao meu Companheiro Destinado, o alfa Ethan, que encontrasse seus assassinos. Ele nunca encontrou. Um ano depois, no aniversário da morte dela. Fui procurar Ethan, pronta para contar que estava grávida. Em vez disso, o encontrei abraçando outra ômega, Bella. — Não se preocupe — ele a consolava. — Ninguém vai descobrir que você derrubou o escudo mental da alcateia e causou a morte de Lily. Assim que Harper abrir mão do título de Luna na cerimônia, você será minha única. Meu coração se despedaçou. Então era isso. Ele nunca me marcou, nunca me rejeitou… ele queria que eu desistisse por conta própria. Ele estava protegendo a assassina da minha irmã. Ele queria torná-la Luna. Invadi o lugar gritando, mas Bella de repente tossiu sangue e desmaiou. Envenenamento por Acônito, ela alegou. — Ela foi envenenada me salvando! Me dê o sangue do seu coração! É a única coisa que pode salvá-la! Ethan me olhou com mais nojo do que se eu fosse lixo. — Estou grávida! Vai matar o bebê! — implorei. Mas o Comando alfa dele me atingiu. Meu corpo já não era mais meu. Só pude assistir enquanto a agulha grossa perfurava meu peito, bem sobre meu coração. Sangue dourado escorreu. Uma dor aguda e dilacerante rasgou meu estômago… Ele tinha matado meu bebê. Minha loba se despedaçou dentro de mim. Fechei os olhos, alcançando uma conexão proibida no mundo dos lobisomens. — Rei Lycan Rogan. Amanhã, preciso que me ajude a destruir tudo na Alcateia Blackwood. Incluindo o alfa Ethan.

I was born wolf-less. At the academy, Arabella made my life hell for it. By the time I graduated, my wolf finally awakened, gifting me powerful healing abilities. I thought the nightmare was finally over. I met my fated mate Alpha Tristan. He was powerful, gorgeous, and promised me the world. But the day I went to tell Tristan I was pregnant was the day I discovered his devastating lie. It was never Tristan in my bed. It was his twin brother, Ronan. The rogue Alpha who’d abandoned the pack years ago to slum it with humans. He used a scent-mimicker to crawl into my bed, to get me pregnant. It was all a twisted plot to humiliate me on my big day. They wanted revenge for Arabella, who lied and claimed I was the bully. They wanted to crush me. I stormed into the study to confront them. I told them I’d expose everything and demand an apology. Instead, they imprisoned me. They performed a dark ritual, siphoning my wolf into Arabella. They drained my life force and murdered my unborn pup. I died in agony. Then I opened my eyes. I was back on the day I found out I was pregnant. I clutched my belly, a single tear tracing a path down my cheek. Those bastards were going to burn for what they did.

Despite being the Alpha’s firstborn, Emily is mostly ignored by everyone in her family and pack. She’s given up on finding her mate and never expects to escape her dreary life until one fateful night when her mate shows up. He’s not what she expected, and if the rumors are true her life with him would be even bleaker than her current life, but she decides to find out for herself what kind of mate she was given.

Paano nga ba maging masaya lalo na kapag nalaman mong isa ka na lang kabit ng lalaking unang nangako sa'yo ng kasal at pagmamahal? Si Joy Fuego, isang simpleng babae na masaya at kuntento na sa buhay pag-ibig niya kay Ricks Gregorio-- ang kan'yang nobyo dahil kahit na mahirap lang sila pareho ay responsable at mapagmahal naman ito sa kan'ya. Hindi man nito naibibigay sa kan'ya ang lahat ay alam niyang mahal na mahal siya nito at kahit na kailan ay hindi siya nito magagawang lokohin. Pero paano na lang kapag dumating ang isang malaking pagsubok sa pagsasama nila at malaman niyang kasal na pala ito sa iba? At ang masakit pa ay bago lamang nito nakilala ang babaeng pinakasalan. Matitiis ba niyang maging isang kabit lang ng lalaking pinakamamahal alang-alang sa magiging anak nila o nakahanda na siyang palayain ito at hayaang lumigaya sa piling ng babaeng pinili nitong pakasalan?

Esperé ocho años. El día en que debía convertirme en Luna, mi pareja del destino, el Alfa Cayden, me rechazó frente a toda la manada. Porque era estéril. Rompió nuestro vínculo de pareja y besó a mi asistente Omega, Lilith. Resulta que ya se habían unido. La maldita estaba embarazada de él. Me enfureció. Estaba lista para dejarlo todo atrás, pero su madre me arrojó a una celda de plata. Él planeaba despojarme de mi loba y de mi don, para entregarle mis poderes a su nueva Luna, Lilith. Destrozada, huí, solo para ser atacada por lobos errantes y dada por muerta en un charco de mi propia sangre. Cuando desperté de nuevo, me encontraba en un lugar desconocido. Mi memoria había sido borrada. El Alfa Rhys de la Manada Shadowcrest estaba a mi lado, prometiendo cuidarme. Y yo, la loba estéril, estaba embarazada… Pero no puedo recordar quién es el padre de mi hijo.

"NO… Don't hurt my baby, PLEASE!" That day, Aria knelt on the freezing cold floor of the operating room, her desperate cries echoing off the sterile walls. But Kane’s cruelty cut deeper than any scalpel. "She is unworthy of being the mother of my child." Those words shattered her. In a final act of heartbreak and defiance, Aria threw herself out of his world—and out of his reach. Years later, she returns. Not alone. By her side is the daughter Kane never knew existed—the living proof of the love he once so cruelly denied. Now the man who cast her aside is the one left shattered—haunted by regret, consumed by obsession, willing to tear the world apart to claim what he lost. Her. Their daughter. Their second chance.

My family is human. We were gifted a long life by the Thorne clan, something close to immortality. For generations, we’ve been their most loyal guardians. And I fell in love with Cedric, the vampire lord I was sworn to protect. For a hundred years, I was his secret. His sin. His only bedmate. I was his shield against dark magic. The sworn protector of his vast clan. I thought I’d earn the mark of an eternal bond. I was even ready for him to turn me. After all, on every blood moon, he would claim my body. Then, at the peak of an agonizing pleasure, he’d sink his fangs into my neck and drink my blood. He’d press his cold lips to my skin and whisper that I was his one and only. That no other blood, no other body, could make him lose control like this. But this time, the moment he was finished with me, he announced his eternal bond with Elsie, the pureblood princess of the Valerius clan. He smirked at the shock on my face. "You're just a human, gifted a long life by my ancestors. My bed warmer. You didn't actually think you could be my mate, did you?" In that moment, I understood. I was just a renewable blood bag. A tool with a purpose. For an alliance, for her, he sacrificed me. He cast me into the abyss and let the darkness swallow me whole. He thought the Guardian's Pact would chain me to him for eternity. But he forgot one thing. Every pact has a loophole. So I destroyed everything he ever gave me. Then, with my family's help, I vanished. But when the Lord of Eternal Night couldn't find his favorite toy… he went mad.
