Elara tidak pernah menyangka bahwa keahliannya sebagai dokter akan menyeretnya ke dalam dunia yang penuh bahaya. Suatu malam, ia dipaksa menyelamatkan seorang pria yang sekarat—Leon, pemimpin mafia yang kejam dan tak kenal ampun. Bukan hanya nyawa pria itu yang berada di tangannya, tapi juga takdirnya sendiri. Karena setelah insiden itu, Leonardo tidak bisa membiarkannya pergi begitu saja. “Menikahlah denganku, atau aku pastikan kau tidak akan pernah merasa aman lagi.” Elara tahu pernikahan ini bukan karena cinta, melainkan paksaan. Ia hanya ingin hidupnya kembali normal, tetapi Leonardo memiliki alasan lain. Sebagai mafia, ia tidak bisa membiarkan seorang saksi bebas, terlebih seseorang yang telah menyentuh batas antara hidup dan matinya. Namun, semakin lama mereka bersama, semakin sulit bagi Leonardo untuk mengabaikan keberadaan Elara. Kebaikan dan keteguhan hati perempuan itu perlahan menembus tembok yang telah ia bangun selama ini. Tapi di dunia mafia, perasaan adalah kelemahan yang bisa berujung kehancuran. Ketika musuh mulai mengendus identitas Elara, pernikahan rahasia mereka menjadi target yang berbahaya. Di tengah pengkhianatan, darah, dan rahasia yang lebih dalam dari yang ia bayangkan, Elara harus memilih—bertahan di sisi pria yang berbahaya atau melarikan diri meskipun tahu ia tak akan pernah benar-benar bebas.

Business. I hate that stupid word with a passion. I hate everything about it. Every time I see that awful word I turn the other way. How it made my family not to be a real family. How it made my brother busy with training. How it made my father always leave for trips. How it made me a human pincushion for my mother's fashion. How it brought me a marriage I didn't ask for. Business.- - - - - - - - - - -Bianca Harrison has had a wild twenty four years. Her brother, Blake, was always there for her. He would scare away boys who would come to take her on dates. He'd make sure she did her school homework. He did everything she expected from her father. Her nanny, Janet, from when she was a kid was always there for her. She was her shoulder to cry on. She'd make sure her room was clean and she had a good meal. She did everything Bianca expected from her mother.Bianca's boyfriend of four years just broke up with her. Bianca was heart broken. She went to her parents, who were home for once, and regretted it instantly. Her father said he had something in mind, but Bianca had no clue it would be this extreme. Having to marry her father's business partner Leon Bailey. The bachelor of New York. The man every girl swoons over. A thirty year old Greek God. Boy was she not excited.

Ursula had to escape from her father dahil pinipilit siya nitong ipakasal sa kanang-kamay nitong si Leon. Her father felt indebted to him because he saved his life on one of their encounters to the authority. Pero ang hindi alam ng ama ay masamang tao ang pinagkakatiwalaan nito dahil isang gabi na wala ito ay sinubukan siyang pagsamantalahan ni Leon at nang hindi siya pumayag ay sinaktan siya nito. Tumakbo siya ng tumakbo hanggang sa makarating sa isang kubo sa gitna ng sagingan at doon ay nakatulog siya. Nang magising ay nasa isang silid na siya at agad na bumulaga sa kanya ang mukha ng isang lalaki. The most handsome face she had ever seen. Hindi niya alam na posibleng makaramdam siya ng sense of security sa lalaking kakikilala pa lamang niya at iyon ang ibinibigay ng awra nito sa kanya. Agad na nahulog ang loob niya rito at hindi niya alam kung ano ang gagawin dahil nagpanggap siyang wala siyang naaalala kahit pa ang sarili niyang pangalan. Matatanggap kaya siya nito kapag nalaman nitong parte siya ng isang grupo na lumalaban sa gobyerno? Pero paano kung nahulog na rin pala ito sa kanya? Would he choose her dangerous love over his family?

“But that’s not fair, Gunnar!” I protested, my voice barely rising above a whisper. Despite his blindness, I dared not look him in the eye. “This second-chance bond goes both ways. Why are you allowed to flirt with other women, but I’m not?” Gunnar growled fiercely, pushing me against the wall. “No one is flirting with anyone, Aqua. If I were you, I would forget about that healer because you’re not going anywhere. YOU. ARE. MINE.” -------------------------------------------------- Aqua, a third-tier submissive wolf, finds her peaceful world shattered when her lover, Leon, tricks her into a perilous plan to offer her virginity to the most ruthless and powerful alpha wolf in the lands: the Alpha King, Gunnar Buchanan. Furious and feeling betrayed, Gunnar initially wants her dead for the deception. However, he soon discovers that the weakest wolf in the pack is his second-chance mate, a bond that complicates everything. Determined to break the bond, Gunnar struggles with his own desires. He cannot fathom making Aqua his Luna Queen, yet something in her innocent blue eyes ignites a possessive fire within him. As the bond deepens, Aqua’s presence challenges his resolve and awakens feelings he thought were long buried. As Aqua transforms from a submissive wolf to a dominant one, she faces numerous trials, from jealous pack members to deadly external threats. Her bond with Gunnar, initially a curse, becomes a source of strength. But as she gains power, the question remains: Can she break the second-chance bond that binds them, or will she find that her destiny lies with the Alpha King?

As beautiful and desirable as Jenna is, she cannot be my mate. I break eye contact and turn to dismiss the crowd, determined to keep my distance from Jenna. As the crowds disperse, I begin to move towards the building, abandoned thousands of years ago by humans, a place that has become home. A shadow falls into step beside me, and I turn to regard them. It's my beta. Years older and more experienced, the beta had taught me all that I had needed to know after my father had been brutally killed in war. Even though he's my beta, I look up to him more than I'd care to admit. “The last thing I expected today was the announcement of a feast. I didn't know we had something to celebrate.” “It will be a small one,” I say, after I quickly turn. I am almost in my bedroom now, I have never been a prude, and I don't care that I am in the company of another, even though there's not a stitch of clothing on me. I move towards my wardrobe to make a selection, noting the dwindling collection in my closet. I really need to learn to shrug off my clothes before I turn, like the others do. “What shall we celebrate?” He asks, his eyes filled with curiosity. “The announcement of my mate,” I say, avoiding the wise eyes of my beta, a little afraid that if I were to make eye contact, he'd read the truth in them. “Your mate? Have you found her?” He asks, his voice tinged with excitement. “No.” I growl. I hate that I have to lie to my beta about this. But it's for the best. I am doing this for the pack. “Tonight, I, chose Violet as my mate

“You! What do you think you're doing?” She squealed, her eyes wide as she scrambled backwards in a panic. He didn't stop and instead, backed her up until she was sandwiched between the wall and himself. His hand grabbed her waist and pulled her flush against him before leaning down till his lips was level with the her ear. “What do you think I'm doing?” His voice was a deep baritone that made her tremble. Her face flushed as she felt the signs of her arousal. He stuck out his tongue and lapped at her earlobe making her tremble and whimper. “Of course, I'm trying to get closer to my Luna.” With that, he didn't wait for her to say her usual protest of “I'm not your Luna” before he captured her lips in his, kissing her till her knees turned to jelly. Laila Reeds felt like her life was the happiest it could be and that nothing could go wrong. Her Alpha loved and cherished her. Her pack was flourishing and she was happy. But good things always come to an end. Laila suddenly finds that everything that her world was built on were lies and what she thought was love was only a ploy to get something from her. Shattered and condemned to death, she thought she wouldn't make it. But then he came. With his silver hair and violet eyes, he descended and killed her enemies while saying “Who dares to touch my mate?” Even with this, Laila wasn't moved as her heart was already dead. “Dead? Her heart is dead? What a joke. Watch how this Luna doting Lycan nurses her heart back to health. Soon, her heart would be beating again and it will be beating only for me.” he proclaimed with a confident smile.

Violet eyes with piercing sight. Mane of gold in pale moonlight. Skin so hard and lily white. Voice so soft, yet filled with might. He comes to me in the dark of night. Flash of teeth, smile so slight. There is no fear, no need to fight. In his embrace, I crave his bite. -S.R. Michele, or Shelly to those closest to her, is a typical 21 yr old, trying to find her way in life. She has good family, a close circle of friends. She's outgoing and friendly, and a bit reckless and impulsive sometimes. And she has certain gifts...when she touches things, she can see into the past, she can feel what was felt by others, and she can sense things before they happen. Ok, so maybe she's not so typical. An impromptu trip to New Orleans, a party on Bourbon Street, and an attempted assault in a dark alley lead her into a world she didn't know existed...but one she's not afraid of. She doesn't know if the violet-eyed stranger that comes to her rescue, and follows her home, is a friend or a foe - and honestly, she doesn't care. Once you've had a taste of the darkness, it's hard to pull away... **** This book was written in the late 1990's - early 2000's, and originally published in 2004, under the title: Diary of a Vampire by S.M. Royston. It was my first book, and it wasn't long until I came to hate it! (Please, don't look it up - I promise you, it's terrible) So here we are, years later, and I've decided to throw out my original work, and re-write it. Because I'm the author, and I can do that. The story, characters, and settings are the same - but the writing style is different, and in my opinion, much, much better. I hope you enjoy it. ****
