Inferno

Gabriel Thorne was seventeen when he met his fated mate across a burning packhouse during a sanctioned werewolf purge. The moment their eyes locked, the mate bond snapped into place with devastating clarity. Dominic Ashford, the youngest billionaire Alpha in North America, rejected him instantly and publicly, shattering Gabriel's world with five brutal words: "I don't have a mate." Five years later, Gabriel has been cast out from the Holy Order, disowned by his exorcist family, and is barely surviving as a paranormal investigator when catastrophe strikes. His father is dying from a curse that can only be broken by Alpha blood willingly given. Gabriel must return to the pack territory he was exiled from and beg the mate who destroyed him for help. Dominic agrees, but his price is cruel: a thirty-day contract where Gabriel lives in his penthouse, attends pack functions as his companion, and submits to experimental mate bond suppression therapy designed to erase their connection forever. Gabriel accepts because he has no choice. Dominic believes proximity will kill the bond. Instead, it ignites into an inferno neither can control. As they're forced together, dangerous truths emerge. The curse killing Gabriel's father wasn't random, it was orchestrated. Someone inside the Holy Order is funding a conspiracy to restart the werewolf purges, and the scandalous mate bond between an exorcist heir and an Alpha is the spark that could ignite a supernatural war. Now Gabriel and Dominic must choose: break their bond to preserve the fragile peace, or claim each other and risk destroying everything their worlds have built. Their love could save both species, Or it could damn them all.

After a century of war between humans and the Otherkin, both sides finally agree to a ceasefire. To preserve peace and coexistence, an intermarriage pact is established—every hundred years, humans and the Otherkin must marry. The first Otherkin to produce an Otherkin child will become the chairman of the Otherkin Alliance. In my last life, I married Kevin Walker, the famously devoted Alpha of the Whitefang pack. One year after our wedding, I gave birth to a wolf pup, and Kevin ascended smoothly to the chairman of the alliance. My sister, Meredith Singer—driven by vanity and a thirst for power—married Simon Lynch, the leader of the vampires. However, she didn't expect his chaotic private life, overflowing with mistresses, to leave her with a disease that robbed her of her ability to bear children. Bitter over her ruined life, Meredith blamed everything on me. She drugged both me and my pup before setting a fire that burned us alive. "Annabelle, everything you have should've been mine! I should be the one married to the Alpha! I should be the chairman's mate! You're nothing!" As the fire roared around us, I clutched my pup tightly in my arms. He sobbed against my chest. "Mom... it hurts..." I couldn't do anything but watch as the flames consumed us both. In the final moments of my life, I saw someone I never expected—the zombie king, Landon Zeller. Without hesitation, he charged into the inferno, cradling me and my pup in his arms, trying desperately to save us. However, it was too late. We'd already taken our last breaths.

Candice Harper’s world shatters when her mother remarries billionaire Sanna d’Agostino just weeks after divorcing her beloved father. Uprooted from New York to a glittering Los Angeles mansion, the 17-year-old senior vows to endure one year of this gilded cage before escaping to college—and freedom. But freedom becomes a distant dream the moment she locks eyes with her new stepbrother: Mantovani d’Agostino, the infamous mafia underboss hiding behind a polished facade of wealth. Mantovani is a storm wrapped in control—ruthless, volatile, and haunted by a darkness he refuses to name. Ordered by his father to play English teacher at Candice’s elite academy while hunting the sheriff dismantling their empire, he plans to despise the innocent girl invading his world. One glance at her fragile beauty among the lilies, however, ignites a forbidden fire he can’t extinguish. She’s off-limits. She’s, his stepsister. Yet every shared breath in their opulent prison tightens the noose of desire around his throat. As Candice navigates a life of bodyguards, paparazzi, and a mother obsessed with status, she’s drawn to the brooding enigma who fleas from her presence yet watches her like she’s prey. Strange midnight visits, heated glances, and whispered commands blur the line between protection and possession. Mantovani fights to bury his hunger, but the mafia’s shadows creep closer—enemies circle, secrets unravel, and a single misstep could destroy them both. In a world where loyalty is blood and love is a death sentence, Candice and Mantovani must choose to surrender to the inferno threatening to consume them… or burn the empire down trying to resist.

Renascida, ao reabrir os olhos para esta nova vida, compreendi meu único caminho: precisava me manter o mais longe possível de Lorenzo Alencar. Quando ele caiu de paraquedas na empresa onde eu trabalhava, pedi demissão sem pensar duas vezes. Quando comprou um apartamento no meu condomínio, fiz as malas e me mudei para bem longe. Quando decidiu assumir os negócios da família e permanecer em Santa Esperança, tratei logo de pedir transferência para o exterior. Na vida passada, usei a gravidez como pretexto para obrigar ele a se casar comigo. Mas, no dia da cerimônia, o grande amor da vida dele voltou. E ao ver ele subir ao altar comigo, ela se lançou do terraço de um hotel. Lorenzo fingiu que nada havia acontecido, sorriu e repetiu os votos ao meu lado. No aniversário de casamento, levou a mim e à nossa filha para um salto de bungee jump. E então… cortou a corda. Nós duas fomos despedaçadas na queda. Diante do meu corpo, ele riu com crueldade: — Se não fosse por você, Patrícia jamais teria se matado. Agora, desça ao inferno, pague a sua dívida com ela! Quando abri os olhos novamente, já estava de volta àquela noite — a noite em que usei a minha filha como arma para forçar nosso casamento.

Nasci sem loba interior. Na academia, Arabella transformou minha vida em um inferno por causa disso. Quando finalmente me formei, minha loba despertou, concedendo-me um poderoso dom de cura. Achei que o pesadelo tivesse acabado. Então conheci meu companheiro destinado, o Alfa Tristan. Ele era poderoso, lindo e prometeu me dar o mundo. Mas no dia em que fui contar a Tristan que estava grávida, descobri uma verdade devastadora. Nunca foi Tristan quem esteve na minha cama. Era o irmão gêmeo dele, Ronan. O Alfa renegado que abandonou a alcateia anos atrás para viver entre humanos. Ele usou um imitador de cheiro para se infiltrar na minha cama e me engravidar. Tudo fazia parte de um plano doentio para me humilhar no meu grande dia. Eles queriam vingança por Arabella que mentiu dizendo que eu a havia intimidado. Queriam me destruir. Invadi o escritório para confrontá-los. Disse que exporia tudo e exigiria um pedido de desculpas. Em vez disso, me aprisionaram. Realizaram um ritual sombrio, drenando minha loba e transferindo-a para Arabella. Sugaram minha força vital e assassinaram meu filhote ainda não nascido. Morri em agonia. Então abri os olhos. Eu estava de volta ao dia em que descobri que estava grávida. Segurei minha barriga, uma única lágrima escorrendo pelo meu rosto. Aqueles desgraçados iam pagar caro por tudo o que fizeram.

“I hate you, Ora.” He growls, his eyes two burning green pools. “I hate you so fucking much, but I cannot seem to stay away. Look at me.” He orders. I shake my head sharply then jump when I feel his slender fingers beneath my chin. Tingles of electricity ripple through my frame. His eyes burn a steady green fire, branding me. “I hope to the goddess that I am the only man who has ever touched you. I pray for your sake that your body is mine and mine alone, because you do not understand what you do to me, angel. If I find out that another Lycan beneath the sun has touched you, he will not live to see the next full moon. You are mine. Mine! And I am willing to chase you to the ends of the fucking earth to prove it.” *** Ora’s life turns upside down right from birth when prophecy reveals that she is the future Queen Luna of the Blood Moon Clan and the golden child who would one day single handedly rule a pack of Lycans. Now, she has people hunting for her, people who desperately want her dead. While running away from one of such hunts, she lands right in the devil’s clutches – in the arms of Alpha Jake Anderson, the most feared Lycan in the Clan. His dark gorgeous looks and smoldering intensity has all her senses on high alert. He hates her but he wants her…desperately. His obsession is dark and deadly. Will Ora be able to keep her powers a secret from Jake forever? When circumstances get out of hand and people have to die, will Ora and Jake’s attraction survive the inferno? Will she be able to keep resisting the alpha?

I never should have let my mother hold my future hostage. She paid my tuition with his father’s money. Locked my birth certificate, my transcripts, every scrap of paper I need to survive in a safe I’ll never open. And the one thing I had left of my dad, his old watch, she dangled like a noose. Run, and I lose my education. Fight, and I lose the last piece of the man who actually loved me. So I moved into the Hunters’ mansion. Into the lair of the boy who spent years making my life hell. Chase Hunter. Six-foot-five of pure venom wrapped in muscle and money. The senior who cornered me in empty hallways, who whispered filth in my ear just to watch me flinch, who smiled that sharp, cruel smile every time I broke a little more. I thought graduation meant freedom from him. I was wrong. Now he’s my stepbrother. He hates that I’m here. Hates my mother for sinking her claws into his father. Hates me most of all, for breathing his air, for walking his halls, for daring to exist where he can reach me. But hate isn’t clean anymore. It’s tangled up in heat. In the way his grey eyes strip me bare every time they land on me, the way his hand closes around my throat, not to hurt, but to own. In the way he punishes me over his lap, in his car, against walls, until I’m shaking and soaked and furious at myself for wanting more. He calls me Little Lamb, I call him every name I can think of under my breath. How long until we stop fighting the deadly inferno raging between us and finally let it consume us both?

My sister knew it—knew he was my obsession, my filthy secret. But Cassidy’s always stolen everything from me. Dad’s favoritism and even the spotlight in college. And then she framed me for something heinous, painted me as an aggressive jealous junkie, and ruined me. As if that's not enough, she walked down the aisle with him. Now she wears his ring. She carries his children. She parades the perfect life right in front of me. And I’m supposed to smile. Pretend it doesn’t shred me apart every time I see him touch her. But one night… one reckless, drunk scorching night after being fired…We had a nightstand. He doesn’t remember—but I do. God, I do. And I can’t stop craving more. Cassidy thinks she’s clever, dragging me back into her perfect little life, humiliating me, then hiring me to nanny her kids. She thinks I’m weak. But sharing a roof with Soren is pure inferno, his gaze burns trails over my curves, hatred simmering beneath raw lust. We shatter every boundary: stolen gropes in shadowed corners, frantic fucks against walls, his cock slamming into me in forbidden spots where anyone could catch us…. I know it’s depraved to lust after a taken man. Sick to yearn for your sister’s husband. Utterly taboo. But I don’t give a damn. Because for once in my life, I want to take everything from her. Even if it destroys us all. .

Today is the death anniversary of Jordan Willis, the Alpha of the Moonshadow Pack. He's also known as my dead mate. My name is Sasha Calhoun, a she-wolf who descends from a family with a weakened bloodline. I'm also the current Luna of the Moonshadow Pack. In a world where the bloodline purity determines the status quo of werewolf society, I seem to exist solely to enter a marriage alliance with Jordan, the Alpha who comes from the most elite family with a pureblooded heritage. This is a political trade meant to strengthen Jordan's position in his family as well as reassure the Elder Council. A year ago, Alpha Jordan sacrificed himself in a blazing inferno while on a mission. I become the most pitied she-wolf in the pack who has to keep the only light on in my empty home. At the same time, I need to protect the only flicker of hope in this pack. As I carry a bouquet of white lilies, which were Alpha Jordan's favorite flowers when he was still alive, I approach his grave. The pup in my womb seems to have picked up on my emotions, for it kicks me gently. I can feel the hum of a powerful and pure-blooded lifeform from the movement. It's the lifeblood of a pup destined to become the future powerful Alpha. Even though I'm still carrying the pup, I still feel reassured and proud. But the next thing I know, I spot a wolf sinking down to one knee far away on the horizon. He appears to be proposing to my younger sister, Winnie Calhoun. Even though there's more than 300 feet between us, I can still smell the Alpha's familiar scent, which seizes me by my heart. After all, I had once immersed myself in that particular scent for countless days and nights in the past. That Alpha… is actually Alpha Jordan, who supposedly died one year ago! I instinctively clutch my belly, my palm caressing the newly-developed heartbeat of my unborn pup. Then, I call the pack guards.
