Historic Borders

I filed to leave Doctors Without Borders a year in advance, just so I could return home, keep my promise, and marry Dennis McMillan. But by the time I got back, Dennis was already a father. I overheard him telling the housekeeper, "Let Anna stay abroad a little longer. Best if she doesn't come back at all. If she finds out I have a son now, she'll definitely cause a scene." It was only then that I understood—he had deceived me. Three years ago, he said to me, "Go spend three years with Doctors Without Borders. Toughen yourself up. Once you are more mature, you'll be ready to be my wife." And I was mature now. I wasn't the same girl who used to break down in tears whenever something went wrong. My tastes had changed too. And now, I wasn't interested in someone like him anymore.

The Crescent moon pack has been isolated from the world for nearly three years after an internal coup. No one has heard anything since the border’s shut.

The King insists on choosing a mate so Cyrus can take the throne. Cyrus knows the King won’t give up the power that easily. Cyrus dutifully travels to the Crescent Moon pack expecting a routine audit. He soon realises his trip will change everything. Walking into the border, he meets none other than his mate, but she doesn’t seem to realise it and is too close with a different Alpha. The more time Cyrus spends on the pack the more it’s dark past comes to light. Will his mate feel the bond? Will old debts rip the pack apart? Who is this Alpha Fin that isolated the pack? And why is the King so determined the pack opens their borders again?

Mira has always lived in the shadow of pack politics, her heart tethered to Lucian, the powerful Alpha of Blackpine. When Lucian chooses duty over desire and claims another as his mate, Mira’s world shatters. Alone and carrying Lucian’s child—a secret that could ignite war—she flees into the wild, determined to protect her unborn pup from the harsh traditions that once bound her. Lost and vulnerable, Mira stumbles into the territory of Rowan, the enigmatic Alpha of Silverpine. Unlike Lucian, Rowan offers acceptance and a chance at a new life, vowing to protect Mira and claim her child as his own. As Mira’s bond with Rowan deepens, she finds herself torn between the pain of her past and the hope of a future she never dared imagine. But Lucian cannot let go. Driven by regret and an unyielding need to reclaim his child, he risks everything to breach Silverpine’s borders, threatening to ignite a conflict that could destroy both packs. As loyalties are tested and old wounds reopened, Mira must choose where her heart—and her child—truly belong.

Ten years of vengeance. One unbreakable bond. And the alpha who just chained the woman he swore to kill. Aira Vale became the Shadow Raider to make Kael Draven pay, raiding his borders, stealing his power, bleeding him for the night he slaughtered her family in front of her. She never expected to be dragged back in silver chains and thrown at his feet. Their eyes meet. The mate bond snaps into place fierce, feral, undeniable. The pack reels. Kael rejects her publicly, voice like ice, but the bond stops his blade. He locks her in a silver cell instead, vowing to break the rogue who’s haunted him for a decade. She tells herself it’s hate. Survival But the bond doesn’t lie. Proximity turns rage into fire. Secrets unravel. And the line between enemy and mate blurs until it shatters. In a world of blood moons and betrayals, one wrong move could destroy them both or forge something unbreakable. A dark, steamy enemies-to-lovers shifter romance where vengeance meets fate, and surrender is the deadliest weapon of all.

Far from the world of Earth lies a vast realm of ancient kingdoms, each striving for power, stability, and survival amid ever-shifting alliances and rivalries. Bound by tradition, these kingdoms practice a unique marriage ritual that determines political ties and future heirs. When alliances are to be strengthened, princes from friendly realms gather in a grand ceremonial arena, where a chosen princess demonstrates her abilities—speed, strength, magic, or flight—while the princes pursue. Her eventual capture symbolizes destiny, unity, and the merging of two royal bloodlines. For two days, the princess and her chosen prince remain secluded, honoring the sacred customs that seal their kingdom’s bond. Afterward, she returns to her homeland to undergo traditional examinations confirming whether the alliance has borne fruit. If so, she journeys to her prince’s kingdom to complete the remaining steps of the ritual and prepare for the future of both realms. Through these time-honored customs, kingdoms rise or fall, heirs are shaped, and political landscapes shift—each marriage carrying the power to redraw borders, forge unity, or ignite new conflicts in a world that forever hungers for expansion.

The day Jasper Carter's terminally ill ex, Natalie Klutz, gave birth, his parents—Josephine and Raymond—hired ten bodyguards to keep me, his actual wife, out of the hospital. But I never showed. Josephine clutched Natalie's hand. "She's not getting near you or the baby." Jasper wiped Natalie's forehead. "Relax. Dad's got men at every door. If Emily shows, we'll toss her." Hours passed. Still no me. Jasper finally let himself breathe. He didn't get what my deal was. He was just granting Natalie's dying wish—to be a mom. The second the nurse handed over the crying baby, he smiled like everything was finally worth it. If I came tomorrow and said sorry, he'd forgive me. Hell, he'd even let me raise the kid. What he didn't know? I had just submitted my paperwork. I'd leave the country, join Doctors Without Borders, and ghost him for good.

Elena Ashvale was born cursed or so the wolves believed. A half-blood carrying both human and werewolf blood, Elena grew up as an outcast in Pack Blackthorn, enduring humiliation in silence while serving those who despised her existence. At nineteen, her fate shattered on the night of the full moon when Alpha Caelan Blackthorn rejected her without hesitation, declaring her unworthy to be his Luna. Broken and abandoned, Elena fled beyond the pack borders, unaware that her rejection had awakened something far more dangerous than exile. Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest, the Beast King, ruler of all living beings felt it the moment her bond was severed. At 25, bound by ancient laws that forbade him from ever taking a mate, Lucien recognized the impossible truth: Elena was his. A forbidden mate. A bloodline erased from history. And a power capable of healing even curses born from the Underworld itself. In a world where a King is not allowed to love, Elena becomes the one who threatens the laws of fate. Rejected by an Alpha. Claimed by a King. And destined to change the werewolf world forever.

My family owned Belgard Estate, a historic wine property that had recently gone viral after serving as the backdrop for a series of advertisements and product livestreams. On one occasion, my butler and I could not even enter the grounds. Influencers crowded the entrance, phones raised, security overwhelmed. My fiancée apologized. "The mayor wanted to borrow the estate, dear. I couldn't tell him no," she said. "Just bear with it for a while, okay? Once the trend dies down, I'll have them all cleared out. Trust me." I trusted her. I never raised the issue again. Some time later, my grandfather prepared to celebrate his 90th birthday. I returned to the estate to retrieve our finest vintage for the occasion, only to find myself nearly crushed by a shrieking crowd packed outside the gates. I slipped away and made my way to the back entrance after someone in the crowd called me a "free-riding bum." Bewildered, I was ready to present proof of ownership when a woman shouted over the noise, "Didn't you hear? Miss LePenn has already announced that Belgard Estate has been given to Jacques Martin! I don't care how big a fan you are of him. You still have to buy a ticket to see him like the rest of us!" I stood there, stunned. Jacques? The first man I had ever allowed to use this estate for a product livestream? It belonged to him now? And since when had Sylvia become the mistress of this place? Since when did she even have a boyfriend? Enough was enough. It was time to bring these people's business with Belgard Estate to an end.
