"What's in it for me?" He asked, raising an eyebrow at her. "You become the Alpha of Alphas" she answered, crossing her arms over her chest, holding her stance despite her racing heart. The necklace around her neck glowing under her shirt, catching the Alpha's attention. "And what's in it for you?" He asked, growing a bit more interested in her offer. Eyeing the dim light under her black shirt. "I get my revenge. So, what do you say, Alpha? Do we call it a deal?" She asked, extending her hand to shake. He stared at her hand for a second, before extending his, shaking hers. "Deal, piccolo lupo" he said, tightening his grip "only we'll play this, MY way" ************************* Having lost her family in the hands of Lycans, Lia Elica finds herself seeking help from the one and only, cold, ruthless, and heartless Capo dei Capi, Alpha Ezra D'Caprio...

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.

“This is your cheque.” He said, making her frown. “I didn’t ask for your money.” She said, and he rolled his eyes. “You didn’t need to. But you served, and you are getting paid for it.” He said coldly before walking toward the door. “Now just be sure to keep that mouth of yours shut about it…” ********************************** She gave him one night. He gave her money for it. Mia knew it was reckless. Sleeping with a stranger, no names, no promises, just a fleeting escape from the weight of reality. But when the night ended, and he left cold bills on the nightstand like she was just another transaction, the burn of humiliation carved into her soul. She hated him for it. Hated herself for needing the money too much to throw it back. She never expected to see him again. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. Because now he’s standing in her office… powerful, arrogant, and very much her new boss. Nathan Lockwood doesn’t recognize her at first. To him, it was just one night. But for Mia, it was the night everything changed. And when he finds out the secret she’s been hiding, the game between them turns into something far more dangerous than either of them ever anticipated. He paid to forget her. Now he’ll pay anything to keep her.

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.

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.

I was a genius alchemist, but my mate, Alpha Clark, engineered my failure 99 times, shattering my reputation. He siphoned my very soul 99 times to gift it to another she-wolf, Layla, molding her into the Alchemy Master I was meant to be. He claimed Layla was his savior, that he owed her his life. It wasn't until I uncovered his betrayal and severed our bond that he learned the truth: I was the one who had saved him. Those scars on my back—the ones he scorned? They were the price I paid for his life. After I walked away, he knelt for 99 days, begging for me to return. But some betrayals can never be forgiven.

“I, Alpha Damon Lockwood, reject you, Sienna De Luca as my mate and Luna.” He said, looking her in the eye as she stood in front of the entire pack, waiting for him to acknowledge her as his mate. She froze for a moment, not knowing what to say before she took a deep breath. Her eyes meeting her mother’s who shook her head, who was telling her not to do this. However, she knew not to stop. “I, Sienna De Luca accept your rejection alpha Damon…” ****************************** Shocked and embarrassed, Sienna finds herself being forced to leave the pack before anyone stopped her from doing so, before she embarrasses her family more than she already believes she has. She took one glance at the test, which was inside her purse, before she took a deep breath and just walked out. Knowing that things were going to be different. Knowing that things were going to be hard. However, when the alpha finds her nine months later, things decide to take a different turn…

O ano em que renasci foi o ano em que a guerra contra os vampiros começou. A primeira coisa que fiz foi me livrar do filhote. O filhote do meu companheiro. Do Alfa Lucas. Na minha vida passada, ele encobriu sua amiga de infância, Sarah, quando ela se acasalou com um vampiro. Ele pegou meu filhote de sangue puro e o trocou pelo bastardo mestiço dela. Eles me rotularam como traidora. Torturaram-me até a morte em uma masmorra de prata. E meu próprio filho, que sofreu lavagem cerebral por Sarah, ficou sobre meu cadáver e me disse para apodrecer no inferno. Quando abri meus olhos novamente, estava grávida de três meses. Não hesitei. Caminhei direto até a cabana da bruxa e bebi o veneno que ela me deu. Mas, enquanto a vida se esvaía, abri outra garrafa: uma cara Poção Mímica. Ela simula os batimentos cardíacos de um filhote. Ela exala o cheiro de uma mãe à espera. Lucas quer uma criança para levar a culpa pelo crime de Sarah. Certo. Eu darei um show a ele. Desta vez, não tenho fraquezas.
