Flight By John Steinbeck

Amelia Blackwood has spent the last two years as an outcast, serving the pack that once claimed her as family. Her crime? She didn't shift on her 16th birthday, leading to her family treating her as less than a servant. After she turned eighteen... everything changed. Whether for the better or the worse would depend on the ruthless Alpha King, Lukas Volkov. As Amelia navigates a treacherous path between servitude and sovereignty, she must confront her painful past and the brutal pack dynamics that threaten her very existence. When danger lurks in the shadows and betrayal seeps into every corner of the kingdom, Amelia must decide whether to bend to the Alpha King's will or fight. With the bond to her mate stronger than she ever imagined, will she embrace her fate as queen, or will the darkness of her past consume her once more?

I met Nikos Stavros on a flight to Athens. The moment our paths crossed, my life began to unravel. Nikos is arrogant. He is a man who moves through the Athens as if it belongs to him. And then I discover, he’s the billionaire my brother owes two million euros, so walking away from him isn’t an option. To protect my family, I agree to work for him for three months. A simple arrangement, strictly professional and clear boundaries At least, that’s what I tell myself. But working for Nikos means long hours, shared spaces, and a tension neither of us can ignore. Every boundary I set, he pushes. Every rule I enforce, he calmly tests. I remind myself this is just a contract. Then our parents announce their engagement and in three weeks, the man I’ve been trying desperately not to fall for… will become my stepbrother.

After I've completed 98 tasks for my fiancee, Cheryl Landeau, she finally agrees to marry me once I've completed the 99th task for her. For that task, I'm required to pick her up outside her company. On the day I stand outside Cheryl's company with a huge flower bouquet in my arms, I don't see her at all despite having waited till late night. Soon after, I get hospitalized due to a high fever. When I tap on my phone, the first thing I see is a photo of the marriage certificate belonging to Cheryl and her assistant, Jason York. Jason even includes a caption with the photo. "My mom is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. Please take good care of me from now on, my dear wife." The next day, I hang a banner outside the company. "May Ms. Landeau and Mr. York grow old in harmony and be blessed with children." All of my colleagues are stunned, to say the least. At that moment, Cheryl quickly pulls me into her office. She then explains, "Jason's mom is severely ill. Her death wish is watch him get married. What's wrong with me fulfilling her wish? Can't you show more kindness toward Jason? "Now, stop throwing that tantrum of yours and get rid of the banner. Once Jason's mom passes away, I'll file for a divorce from him." I just smile as I set off more fireworks at the doorway. "Oh, you don't have to bother with a divorce. I'm worried that his mom might come back to life soon. Let's just end things here."

Rejected. Sold. Marked by a cursed Lycan. Camilla thought she’d lost everything, until the Lycan's mark didn’t kill her. Now caught between a deadly past and a dangerous bond, she must choose who to trust before her mate bond seals the wrong fate.

He rejected her once… left her humiliated and unseen. Summer came, and she returned unrecognizable—confident, beautiful, unstoppable. Now Hades Deville—the rival, the playboy—sees her and claims her as his mate. Can she survive being desired by the boy she never expected… and the one who once let her go?

Aria Hale spent her entire life believing the Moon Goddess created someone just for her. Someone who would see her. Choose her. Love her. She didn’t expect her fated mate to be Alpha Blake Thorn—the golden boy of the pack… or that he would reject her in front of everyone on her eighteenth birthday. Humiliated, heartbroken, and stripped of her place in the pack, Aria runs into the Forbidden Woods, praying for the pain to stop. But instead of death, she finds something far more dangerous: The Dark King. Erevan is ancient, feared, and impossibly powerful. To the world he is a myth. To Aria, he is the first person who looks at her like she is worth the world. And when she collapses in his arms, he does the unthinkable— He claims her as his mate. In the Dark Realm, Aria begins to unlock abilities she never knew she had. Abilities that were never meant to exist in the mortal world. Abilities that could destroy everything she once called home. When she returns to her old pack, Alpha Blake realizes the awful truth: Rejecting her was the biggest mistake of his life. But it’s too late. Aria is no longer the girl who begged for love. She is the mate of a king. Chosen. Claimed. Unstoppable. And she will never kneel again. A rejected-mate romance filled with betrayal, power, jealousy, possessive love, and a heroine who rises from broken to legendary.

She loved him. He humiliated her. Now she’s walking away—for good! Lily gave up everything for her husband, William Aldridge—the man she believed was her forever. But on their anniversary, the night she planned to share the news of her long-awaited pregnancy, she walked in on him tangled in the arms of her best friend. With betrayal cutting deeper than any knife and humiliation turning her heart to ash, Lily makes a choice. No more tears. No more waiting to be loved. If not for her shattered dignity, then for the sake of her unborn child, she will return to her true self—Lilian Arkwright, the hidden heiress of the powerful Arkwright Conglomerate. But just as she begins to rebuild her shattered world, she catches the attention of Aaron Aldridge—the devilishly handsome, younger tycoon brother of William, with secrets of his own and a desire to win her heart, no matter the cost. Now torn between the father of her unborn child, the man who broke her... and the man who would do anything to love her, Lilian must decide: Forgiveness or freedom? Past or future? ~•~•~ Pa! Lily threw the stack of documents on the table in front of him. Without waiting for him to question, she said. "Divorce papers, sign them." William stared at the documents like they were a foreign language. “Divorce papers? You’re not serious,” he said, his voice low, disbelieving. Lily remained seated across from him, her expression unreadable. “I’ve never been more serious in my life.” Leaning forward, she slid the pen across the table toward him and repeated. “Sign it.”

Aria had always believed in fate until the night it betrayed her. Chosen by the Moon Goddess to be the mate of Alpha Kael of the powerful Shadow Moon Pack, she believed destiny had finally chosen her. But before the entire pack, Kael rejected her, tearing their sacred bond apart and leaving her broken, humiliated, and alone. Marked by a shattered bond and abandoned by the only home she has ever known, Aria is forced into the wilderness with nothing but her wounded wolf and the will to survive. Life beyond the pack is brutal, but it teaches her a truth she never understood before survival is not just instinct, it is strength. Pain becomes her teacher, and every step away from Shadow Moon forges her into something far more dangerous than the girl Kael cast aside. When the infamous Night Fang Alpha offers her refuge among his ruthless pack, Aria begins to discover a new side of herself. The darkness she once feared slowly becomes her greatest weapon. But Kael’s regret refuses to stay buried, and the echo of the bond he destroyed begins to draw attention from powerful enemies and forces tied to destiny itself. Now Aria must choose her own path. Will she remain the hunted wolf everyone expects her to be, or rise stronger than fate and become a wolf who kneels to no one?

The night Araya was born, the Moon refused her. Marked as wolfless, mocked and forgotten, she grew up as prey in her own pack. Even her fated mate broke the bond with a smirk and left her bleeding at the border — for rogues to finish. But they forgot one thing: Ash remembers. And so does the throne buried beneath it. The forest did not devour her. It bowed. The flame did not die. It waited. Until, in the silence between heartbeats, something older than gods whispered: “She is not blessed. She is not chosen. She is the reckoning the moon tried to silence.” Now Araya walks again — no longer mortal, no longer meek. She is Hollow-Blood reborn, daughter of the fire that swallowed fate, heir to a throne no god dares name. And fate has bound her to Dorian—Azrien—the exiled god chained to shadow and ruin. He expected to crave nothing but vengeance. Until her. Araya is the mate his immortal soul demands, the salvation he denies, and the spark that could either set him free… or burn the world to ash. But enemies stir in silence. Adira, the Luna who would claim the Alpha prince at any cost, forges a pact with a creature older than gods, a monster chained in rot and darkness. The price she pays will rip fate itself open. Betrayals. Forbidden desire. Gods who bleed. Wolves who kneel. And at the heart of it, one truth no prophecy can silence: The gods will end. She will not. And the last prophecy carved into stone whispers: “The Flame That Walks Returns. Let the gods burn first.”
