The night before I was supposed to marry the heir to the Moretti family, I found a string of ninety-nine filthy texts on my fiancé Leo’s phone. A woman named Ava Collins, telling him she loved him. Shameless. Desperate. She was begging him to call off our wedding, threatening to kill herself if he went through with it. I didn’t waste a second. I shoved the phone in his face and demanded an explanation. The silence stretched for an eternity before he finally broke. “Her brother was Liam. My underboss. He took a bullet for me. My bullet. I promised him I’d look after her.” "Jennifer, we grew up together. You know it’s you. It’s always been you. I swear, I’ll handle it. I’ll cut her off." I searched his eyes, hunting for the lie. I swallowed the acid in my throat and chose to believe him. The wedding was on. This was bigger than us. It was a treaty signed in blood between two families. And God help me, I still loved him. But on our wedding day, as we stood at the altar, vows on our lips, Leo got the call. It was her. Ava. On a bridge, threatening to jump. Demanding he come. Now. The diamond ring, a breath away from my finger, clattered to the stone floor of the church. Not a word. Not a single explanation. He just left. Left me, our families, our future... left me standing alone at the altar. Through a blur of tears, I screamed after him, "Leo, if you walk out that door, we are done!" His only reply, tossed over his shoulder, “She needs me.” He never looked back. Carrying his child, I vanished from his world and never looked back.

It's been ten years now and I've programmed my brain to forget her little did I know that I was deceiving myself. Things changed when I saw her. She looked different. She wasn't the same little girl I had fallen in love with. She was now a grown woman. She was gorgeous. I needed her beneath me just for one night. I'd get her out of my system and move on. That was probably a lie. Months later. Here I am drowning my sorrow in alcohol on my last night as a single man. I was getting married to a woman I never truly loved. Tara gave me a shy smile as she approached the aisle with her father. Kelsey looked away and ignored me. I was about to slide the ring on Tara's finger and her father's voice stopped me. "Stop." I turned around and faced him. Tara grabbed his hand angrily. "Dad what are you doing?!" Tara yelled furiously.

SYPNOSIS Isang anak ng General at isang ulila na. Isang ipinanganak sa pamilyang sagana habang isa ay tauhan lamang. Ang buhay nila na tila ba langit at lupa ngunit ang pagmamahalan ay siyang pumapagitna. “Akin ka, sa’kin ka lang at walang sino man’ ang pwedeng umagaw sayo. I maybe a bad person in your eyes and this bad person will be your worst nightmare once you betrayed me!” Dahil sa mga ala-ala ay natakot na ulit siyang sumugal at ibigay lahat. Pero pagdating sa isang lalaki na kinabaliwan niya ng husto ay susugal siyang muli at hindi niya hahayaang iwan o mawala ito sa kaniya. “Hindi, hinding-hindi ako magiging sayo! Ako lang ang nagmamay ari sa sarili ko! Lubayan mo ako!” He's the son of General in military. A spoiled yet rebelled son who will do everything to claim what he likes. He once betrayed by the girl he loved and now he won't let that happen again. “I want you.” Zephraime said. Ang mga pusong pinigilan at pilit na himahadlangan ng mga taong hindi pabor sa kanilang nararamdaman. “Bakit hindi mo maintindihan na hindi pwede! Bakit hindi mo maintindihan na mali ang nararamdaman mo! B-bakit… bakit hindi mo maintindihan n-na m-mali ito…” “You know that it's not wrong, alam mo sa sarili mo na walang mali pero yang isip mo, pilit na hinahadlangan ang puso mo!” Mali nga ba o talagang takot lang ang nangunguna? Lalaban pa ba o titigil na? Tatanggapin na lamang ba ang kapalarang kahit kelan ay hindi magiging sila? ‘I own you, you are mine.’ ‘Please tama na, hindi ko na kayang ipagtulakan ka pa.’ A man with responsibility and truth to his words. He is not an evil or a bad person but he will definitely possessive for ‘CLAIMING HIM’.

“You were never supposed to exist.” Those are the last words Aeris hears before he’s dragged into the forbidden forest to die. Born scentless and wolfless, beaten by his own pack, and blamed for every misfortune, Aeris has spent his life as a cursed shadow. Until one deadly night forces him into the woods… and into the arms of the most feared Alpha alive. Killian of the Seven Territories is a monster whispered about in every pack,merciless, unmatched, untouchable. But the moment he lays eyes on the broken boy bleeding in his forest… something ancient awakens. A bond. A spark. A mate-pull that should be impossible. And when Killian touches Aeris, his wounds heal. But Aeris carries more than scars. He carries a prophecy. A prophecy older than wolves themselves,one that marks him as the omega who should not exist, the key to ending every shifter’s power forever. Hunters are already closing in, sent by the Council to kill him before he awakens. Killian should turn away. Reject him. Let him die. Instead, he bares his claws at the world and whispers: “Let them come. I protect what’s mine.” Now a ruthless Alpha and a shattered omega must survive assassins, ancient magic, and a destiny written in blood. Because something inside Aeris is stirring,something brighter, darker, and more powerful than any wolf. If it wakes… the entire shifter world will fall. And the only thing more dangerous than the prophecy is the way Killian looks at him like he’s worth saving.
