Iron Hands Vs Iron Warriors

Draven’s massive body slammed me against the cold stone wall, his iron grip pinning my wrists high above my head as his rough hand closed around my throat, squeezing just enough to steal my breath. “You’re mine tonight, little one,” he growled, his voice a dark rumble that sent shivers racing down my spine, his eyes devouring me with possessive hunger. I whimpered helplessly, my knees buckling beneath the weight of his dominance, my body already aching for whatever he’d give me. “Yes, please,” I begged, my voice trembling as I arched desperately into him, feeling the thin fabric of my dress rip under his impatient hands, baring me completely to his merciless gaze. His thick fingers plunged between my thighs without warning, claiming my dripping heat in one brutal thrust that made me cry out. He drove deeper, his teeth scraping my neck as he snarled. “Scream for me.” ******** Five years of betrayal and pain, Allene thought she was a powerless omega, a wife discarded by the man she loved. But the moment her wolf awakened, everything changed. Fierce, unstoppable and burning with vengeance, she seduces, dominates and challenges the men who dared to underestimate her—Leonard, the arrogant mate who humiliated her, and Draven, Leonard's Uncle, the rogue alpha whose touch ignites a fire she never expected. When her ex mate comes for her, who gets to be her chosen one?

She wasn't running from fate—she was running toward freedom. Laney Thorne spent years trapped under her father's control, her wolf suppressed, her power locked away. When she escapes to Iron Fang Pack territory, seeking passage to safety. What she finds instead are twin brothers who make her wolf stir for the first time in her life. Alpha twins, Cade and River—protective and dangerous, bound by blood and brotherhood—recognize her immediately. Mate. The bond snaps into place for both of them, a rare triad that should be celebrated. But Laney's emergence comes with a price. Her father, Alpha of a rival Pack, won't accept her defiance. She has been bartered off to a ruthless Alpha of Black Talon pack who wants Laney as his breeder. They claim she's been kidnapped, influenced, and held against her will. It's a lie—and every shifter with eyes can see the mate bonds blazing on her skin, proof. But lies don't need to be true to start a war. When her wolf finally emerges, it triggers the opportunity for war, the conflict with the Iron Fang Pack her father has been waiting for. He allies with the Black Talon pack and launches an attack on territory under the guise of "rescuing" her. Now Laney must stand before the Council and prove what her father refuses to accept: she chose this life. She chose her mates. She chose herself. The mate bond marks are a source of strength when enemies breach their borders. A promise that she will never be caged again. This isn't a story about a helpless woman claimed by fate. This is a story about a woman who claimed her freedom and her mates—and she will burn down anyone who tries to take either from her. When a wolf finally breaks free… she fights.

Pada hari aku ketahuan bukanlah putri asli dari sebuah keluarga yang kaya raya, si anak asli menyerbu ke dalam rumah dan menusuk perutku beberapa kali hingga pada akhirnya aku tidak bisa memiliki anak sendiri. Tunanganku sangat marah, begitu pula dengan orang tuaku. Mereka dengan tegas menyatakan tidak akan mengakui anak itu sebagai putri kandung mereka. Untuk menghiburku, tunanganku melamarku secepatnya. Orang tuaku juga menulis surat pernyataan pemutusan hubungan keluarga supaya aku bisa segera sembuh dari cederaku. Kemudian, mereka mengatakan bahwa putri yang tidak mereka akui itu melarikan diri ke luar negeri dan menerima karma dengan dijual ke Myano Utara. Aku percaya pada informasi itu. Enam tahun setelah aku menikah, aku justru melihat putri yang tidak diakui dan seharusnya sedang hidup menderita di Myano Utara itu. Dia sedang bersandar di pelukan suamiku dengan perutnya yang membuncit sambil mendesah. "Kalau saja enam tahun lalu aku nggak marah dan melakukan kesalahan seperti itu, kamu juga nggak perlu menikahi Sisilia." "Untung saja kamu dan orang tuaku memihak padaku. Kalau nggak, aku pasti sudah dipenjara gara-gara si pembohong itu. Dia pasti nggak menyangka aku selama ini hidup di bawah radarnya dan sedang mengandung anakmu." "Begitu anak ini lahir, kamu tinggal cari alasan untuk mengadopsinya dan jadikan putri palsu itu menjadi pengasuh buatku selamanya." "Terima kasih atas kerja kerasmu selama ini, Anton." Sorot tatapan penuh kasih sayang dari putri yang seharusnya tidak diakui itu membuat tunanganku, Anton Raksa, tersipu. "Jangan bilang begitu. Hanya dengan aku menikahinya, kamu baru bisa menjalani hidup tanpa rasa bersalah." "Asalkan kamu senang, semua yang kulakukan itu sepadan." Ternyata suami yang kukira benar-benar mencintaiku itu membohongiku selama ini. Orang tuaku juga membohongiku demi melindungi putri kandung mereka. Baiklah, aku tidak menginginkan mereka lagi!

A pack of Rogues holds my mother, Celia Hale, hostage and clutches an iron chest like it's treasure. Lillian Parker, my mate's first love, points at the chest through her tears. "That chest… It's all I have left of my mother." However, the boulder above my mother's head is already loose, and it could crush her at any moment. I desperately beg my mate and the Alpha of the Silvermoon pack, Ares Hamilton. "Save my mom first! Please!" He just glances at me with a frown. "Celia's a strong she-wolf. She'll be fine. Margaret is already gone. That chest matters more." With that, he gestures for most of the fighters to move toward the chest. Only two young werewolves, barely steady on their feet, reluctantly step toward Celia. I stare at him in disbelief. In the end, they recover the chest, but my mother is dead.

She witnesses Kane Drax, notorious alpha of the Iron Fang pack, dominating women in ways that make her body betray her principles. When he’s falsely accused of assault, she becomes his unwilling defender. But Kane doesn’t want her help. He doesn’t want her at all. “I don’t mate with cops’ daughters,” he snarls, even as the bond between them threatens to consume them both.

In a world where law means nothing and desire means everything, some bonds are worth breaking every rule.

t was in the stark interrogation room where Caesar laid eyes on Lola's face for the very first time. Lola, accused of betraying her own country, was in a dire situation. She was draped in nothing but a flimsy, damp garment and weighed down by the clanking chains that bound her to the floor. Clad in his regal black military uniform, Caesar sat as the judge of her trial. Years later, when news of their lavish wedding emerged, the world assumed it was the genesis of their love story. "They said when Caesar, once a general, first saw Lola, shivering in agony and desperation, his heart swelled with empathy. He tenderly removed his black gloves and reached out to her with love." In reality, Caesar never removed his gloves throughout the trial. He sat outside the iron railing, observing Lola with a frigid countenance. But it wasn't until yesterday that Caesar finally held Lola in his arms.

“Kiss me.” The words tumbled out and Lex stepped back instantly. He turned away from her and Isis felt her pride being butchered. “Isis, I-” His voice travelled through the room. It was laced with uncertainty. His back was still to her. "I am sorry. I shouldn’t have asked. I-uh. Good bye, Mr. Greyson.” Isis replied as she slid off the desk. She needed to leave, before her embarrassment killed her. Isis grabbed her bag and stalked off towards the door. A grip like iron encased her shoulder and she was spun around to face Mr. Greyson, he pushed her against the door and dropped her bag onto the floor. He pinned her body with his, a hand around her waist bringing her body against his and his other hand cupping her face. He ran his thumb along her lower lips and took satisfaction in her shuddering. He drew her hands up and anchored them above her head, pinning them to the door. His mouth slowly covered hers and moved teasingly. Isis gasped at the skillful movement of his lips against hers. He possessed her fully, slipping his tongue into her mouth. He tasted her, devoured her and nothing was sweeter for Lex. He fought to control his natural instincts firing to life and focused on giving her this but he was certain he would gain the most pain from it. He knew he would never forget this kiss, never meet its equal. He pulled away from her, their breath labored. He rested his forehead against hers and committed the moment to memory. He leaned off her, let her hands drop to her sides, he handed Isis her bag. "Good bye, Ms. Davenport.” He replied with some pain as he turned the door knob and allowed her to leave.
