J Cole Smile

After I'm done with the healing process at the Holy Springs, I return to the pack where my younger brother, Cole Blackclaw, and I reside. Unexpectedly, before I can step into the pack's territory, I find my path getting blocked by a few wolves whom I've never seen before. "If you want to enter the Moon Pack, you'd better submit everything on the list!" The leading she-wolf of the group tosses a list filled with things in my face. The list shows the criteria needed to enter the Moon Pack's territory—venison of the Deer King, tens of millions of Healing Rocks, and over a million beauty tonics! I never expected that Cole would list such harsh conditions for anyone who wishes to join the Moon Pack during my three-year absence! How did those geezers at the Elders' Council even let him get away with this idea in the first place? I roared angrily, "Tell Cole to get his ass out here and see me! I'm Wendy Blackclaw, his older sister!" As soon as my words fall, the she-wolf covers her mouth and begins shrieking at me. "How ridiculous! I'm Cole's mate, Amy McGrave! Cole never told me he had an older sister! Can you even submit these things? If not, then get lost! The Moon Pack doesn't welcome wolves like you!" I just stand where I am as I huff coldly in return. "You've never seen me, seeing as I was gone for three years. That's fine—I don't blame you for that. But now, I want Cole to see me right now. Otherwise, he can forget about retaining his Alpha status!"

When Ariana Blake, daughter of one of the world’s most powerful CEOs, becomes the target of a shadow organization, her father hires an elite personal bodyguard—Cole Maddox, an ex-special forces soldier known for his cold precision and zero emotion. Cole’s rule is simple: Never get involved. But Ariana isn’t the spoiled heiress he expected—she’s brave, wounded, and desperate for freedom from her father’s control. When danger strikes close, Ariana and Cole are forced into hiding—alone, off-grid, and pretending to be married to stay safe. Lines blur. Hearts fall. And soon, protection becomes passion. But the deeper they fall, the more secrets surface—about her family, the threats against her, and Cole’s hidden past. The man she loves might be the reason she’s being hunted. Will Ariana survive the truth… or the man sworn to protect her?

[ NOW ONGOING. ] ‘I can’t wait to make you mine, Lorelei.’ I read the text with a naughty smile. That’s Leo. The man I fell in love with via chat. I thought it was dumb to love someone you’ve never met, but look at me now. ‘I can’t wait for you to rip off my underwear.’ I texted and sent. Shivers ran down my spine while waiting for his response. Sexting through casual texts has become a thing I enjoy with him now. I bit my lips as I stared at our chat, anticipating. Just then, someone barged into my room. I put my phone down like I was doing something wrong. It was my mother. She has a worried look on her face. My father and stepmother walked in holding an envelope. I stared at them confused. “Pack your things and leave. You will get married on Thursday.” My father said cruelly. My brows creased and I tried to object but he held out the papers. “You don’t have a say in this Lorelei. I already sold you out.” What is he talking about? How can he arrange my own wedding? I knew I wasn’t my father’s favourite child, but this is next level hate. “Go and live with your husband. He bought you. And darling, there’s no turning back.” My stepmom added with a smile and threw the document on my bed. I picked it up and read the first page. ‘This contract seals the marriage between Ace Salvatore and Lorelei Stanley.’ Ace Salvatore? The man rumoured to be the devil himself.... My phone made a gentle ding and I looked at it. It was Leo. Tears cascaded my eyelids. How can I marry someone when I’m in love withsomeoneelse?

Le jour de notre mariage, mon fiancé, Hayden Grant, a exigé que je sois expulsée de la chapelle. Il a ensuite descendu l'allée, main dans la main, avec sa première amour d'enfance. Je suis rentrée à l'intérieur et me suis effondrée au bord de l'allée. Le bouquet a glissé de mes mains, les pétales se sont dispersés, jonchant le sol. Pourtant, son regard n'a pas daigné se poser sur moi, pas même une demi-seconde. « L'enfant de Selena a besoin d'un père. Une fois cette situation réglée, je t'épouserai. » Tout le monde pensait que moi, l'idiote éperdue d'amour, j'accepterais volontiers d'attendre encore un mois. Après tout, je l'avais déjà attendu pendant sept ans. Mais cette nuit-là, j'ai fait ce que personne n'avait anticipé. J'ai accepté le mariage arrangé par mes parents et j'ai quitté le pays. Trois ans plus tard, je suis revenue dans mon pays natal pour rendre visite à mes parents. Mon mari, William Fields, était PDG d'une multinationale. Lorsqu'une réunion importante imprévue s'est présentée, il m'a demandé de me rendre à l'avance à la filiale locale de son entreprise, où ses subordonnés prendraient soin de moi. À ma grande surprise, l'un de ces subordonnés s'est avéré être Hayden, l'homme que je n'avais pas revu depuis trois ans. Son regard s'est immédiatement posé sur le diamant étincelant à mon annulaire. « C'est une copie du diamant rose que M. Fields a acheté pour sa femme, celui qui vaut cinq millions d'euros ? Je ne pensais pas que tu deviendrais si frivole après toutes ces années. » « Tu en as assez fait, rentre à la maison. L'enfant de Selena est à l'école maintenant, c'est le moment parfait pour que tu t'occupes de ses repas. » Je n'ai pas prononcé un mot, me contentant de caresser la bague du bout des doigts. Il était loin de se douter qu'il s'agissait de la plus modeste de toutes les pierres que William m'avait jamais offertes.

Lors du premier jour de classe, j'avais tout organisé. J'avais déjà classé mes livres en ordre alphabétique, mon uniforme était repassé et ranger dans mon placard, attendant seulement que je le porte. C'était la même chose depuis des années. Les garçons allaient siffler devant l'arrivée de Jeanette Green, la bimbo de l'école, les intellos seraient dans un coin en train de faire des recherches sur leurs ordinateurs, les joueurs de foot se vanteraient auprès de n'importe quelle fille prête à les écouter, la chorale répéterait leurs chansons dans un coin de la cantine et les petits nouveaux seraient dans un coin, exclus, en attendant de se faire des amis. Et moi, j'allais trainer avec mes meilleurs amis, faire la folle mais rester une bonne fille. Car quand on s'appelle Lily Parks, on a pas autre choix que de bien se comporter. Dans notre famille, nous n'avons pas de réputation qui nous suive: nous sommes comme la plupart des gens. Seul différence entre notre famille et les autres? Mon arrière grand-père était un homme très respecté dans notre petite ville perdue dans les États-Unis. On le complimentait souvent dans sa façon d'agir, en tant qu'avocat réputé. Il a enseigné les bonnes manières à ses enfants, qui eux l'ont enseignés à leurs enfants, ainsi de suite. Mes parents tenaient beaucoup à continuer la tradition, alors je suis l'incarnation même des bonnes manières. Bonnes notes, bon comportement, apparence soignée... S'il fallait que je brise ces règles! Je n'imaginais même pas... Je prévoyais toujours tout en avance pour éviter de me mettre les pieds dans les plats, pour faire plaisir à ma famille. Mais pourtant, cette année, il y avait une chose que je n'avais pas du tout prévu. Et cette chose avait un nom. Matthew Carter.

Cole, the arrogant future Alpha and her worst tormentor, discovers she is his fated mate. Furious and in love with another, he’s forced into marriage by his father. Trapped in a loveless bond, Ella endures heartbreak, betrayal, and a devastating loss that shatters her. Eight years later, she returns—not as the weak girl he abandoned, but as a powerful woman, her name changed, her heart hardened. Now, Cole wants her back. He’ll beg, fight, and sacrifice everything to prove he’s changed. But some wounds never heal… and some love stories were never meant to be rewritten. Can Cole earn her trust before it’s too late, or will Ella walk away forever?

To pursue the goblin prince Cole Hutch, I devoted five years of my life. However, on the very day I'm about to marry him, dressed in a wedding gown, I overhear a conversation between Cole and his friend. "Cole, are you really going to marry Lilian?" his friend asks doubtfully. A shadow flickers across Cole's eyes. "Of course. The Heroic Alliance has been eyeing our kingdom for a long time, and now that Shia is pregnant with my child, the alliance elders are displeased with me. Marrying Lilian is the perfect way to appease them." "Aren't you afraid Lilian will find out you've been seeing someone else and go after Shia?" The friend asks again. Cole replied, "She won't. She's madly in love with me. She'll keep the secret for my sake. She's gentle and easy to control. As long as I marry her, we can at least delay a war against our kingdom, and Shia will be safe." My entire world shatters at that moment. In my daze, I get ambushed and gravely wounded. And when I finally wake up from my unconsciousness, I remember everyone, except Cole. So, when the leader of the Heroic Alliance contacts me to ask me to return for an arranged marriage, I immediately book a portal back seven days later.
