Lucian Graymark Shadowhunters

Résumé Mara a toujours vécu dans le silence des autres , une présence effacée, un cœur trop plein qu’elle cache derrière des sourires mesurés. Quand Elias, son garde du corps, entre dans sa vie, elle sent renaître un feu qu’elle croyait mort. Mais Elias, lui, s’attache à Naëlle, la demi-sœur de Mara, qu’il épouse pour la sauver d’un scandale qui pourrait tout détruire.

"You're an angel right?" I blurted out before I could stop myself. A deep chuckle left his lips. It sounded heavenly, making me internally swoon. God, can I please keep him till you need him again? You said we should ask and it shall be given unto us. Those were my thoughts. How I'd become godly in a second, I couldn't understand. "I'll be your angel." He replied confidently. ...and that was how I'd invited the devil into my life ___________________________ Kris Morgan was just a normal teenage girl living a normal life and at the same time trying to get over the death of her dad till Lucian Fox waltzed into her life.

WARNING: **This story is about a love so forbidden and a passion so intense, it might just burn you. Consider yourself warned.** ____ "Lucian shouldn’t have been near you,” he growled, his voice rough velvet. “I told them you’re under my protection. Under me.” ___ He is Manhattan’s most ruthless CEO. Cold. Powerful. Untouchable. But behind the sharp suits and devilish smirk hides a secret darker than the night itself— Joachim Knight is a vampire. When Yvette, a scandal-chased celebrity agent, crashes into his world, she expects another arrogant billionaire with too much money and no soul. What she finds instead is danger wrapped in seduction, a man who makes the air crackle with heat every time he’s near. His kiss burns like fire. His touch feels like sin. And his possessive words leave her trembling: "You’re mine, Yvette. Under my protection. Under me." But the more she craves him, the more she discovers the monstrous truth he hides— and the blood-soaked secrets that could ruin them both. In a world of lies, power, and forbidden hunger, will she resist the Devil’s kiss… or surrender to the dark passion of a 570 year old vampire who would destroy anyone who dares to touch her?

Freya Garrick has spent twenty-five years of her life believing werewolves are monsters. Her hunter father trained her to become a werewolf hunter like him while harboring the belief that they killed her mother. She lived her everyday life like this with her father and bethrothed, hunter Lucian, until they heard of a new feral Alpha in Eryndor—Alpha Torin— He’s dark, vicious, and untouchable. He’s avenging his brother’s death and ordered for humans to be captured. Freya was among these humans, but she disguised as a man to get her way through him and kill him. But fate delivers a fatal twist: Alpha Torin is her mate. How could a human be fated to a wolf? She didn’t live long to know because she was killed by his Luna out of pure jealousy. Freya died only to be reborn as a dangerous and cursed hybrid. The kind of creature even Alphas fear. Now she must find out about her real identity, and also either make her father proud, or fall in love with the ruthless Alpha. “She’s a cursed hybrid,” the pack witch warned. “And she is not to be mated.” — What happens when the Alpha couldn’t stop his endless craving for her?

I'm a nationally certified animal trainer running the Lion King, Caesar's final assessment. I've barely stepped into the enclosure corridor when the steel guillotine door slams down behind me. My wife's laughter crackles over the loudspeaker. "Everyone, we're doing the ultimate challenge today! We're locking the so-called number-one animal trainer in the Lion King's enclosure and taking bets on whether he wets himself in ten minutes!" Caesar crouches low and rumbles a warning. I reach for my tranquilizer gun but stop cold. The liquid isn't the right color. In a phony sing-song voice, the veterinarian, Hugh Archer, says, "Lucian, I forgot to mention, I swapped your tranquilizer darts for pepper spray so you won't hurt Caesar by mistake. "You two are so close. Just win him over with love!" I look at Caesar, his eyes bloodshot from the stimulant, and it clicks. Hugh still resents that I stopped him from touching a tiger with his bare hands a few days ago. I tune out the trash blaring over the loudspeaker, pull a remote from my pocket, and hit the button. It's the master switch for the electric fence gates around every predator enclosure in the zoo. If I don't make it out, no one does.

“There is someone I would like you all to meet,” Lucian said, breaking the silence as he turned to stare down at her in a loving manner, a way he had never looked at me before, “the mother of my child.” My eyes widened in shock as I took in the sight of her swollen belly, a clear evidence of her pregnancy. The mother of my child? What did he mean by that? ***** Selena, the resilient Luna of Blood Moon Pack, was promised to her husband, the Alpha of Crescent Moon Pack. But, she was abandoned by him after their wedding. Mocked by her mother-in-law, and with the help of the stunning Beta, Logan, she’s able to handle the pack’s affairs in anticipation of her husband’s return. Three years later, her dearest husband betrays her by returning with his pregnant mate and is determined to kick her out of the pack regardless of her contributions and dedication. Despite her hurt, Selena is determined to not allow her husband to ruin everything she had worked so hard for, especially when she is certain the pack would need her now more than ever. But secrets bigger than Selena’s resilience reside in the heart of Crescent Moon Pack, and the sudden spark of a mate bond she had believed she would never experience threatens to change everything she has ever known to be true.

Hindi kailanman inakala ni Hestia Vale na ang simpleng blind date na dinaluhan niya sa Araw ng mga Puso ang magiging simula ng pinakamasalimuot na kabanata ng buhay niya. Ang plano lang niya noon ay makatakas sa mapang-abusong tiyahin at magkaroon ng bagong simula, pero natapos ang gabi na ikinasal siya sa isang lalaking ngayon niya lang nakilala. Misteryoso. Malamig. Mapanganib. ’Yan si Lucian “Ian” Escalera, ang lalaking nag-alok ng kasal na parang isang business deal. Sa bawat titig at bawat salita nito, alam ni Hestia na may itinatago siya—isang lihim na maaaring magpabago ng lahat. Akala ni Hestia, ligtas na siya sa mga kamay ng pamilya niyang mapagsamantala. Pero nang makilala niya ang tunay na pagkatao ng napangasawa—ang tagapagmana ng isa sa pinakamalalaking korporasyon sa bansa—mas malaking gulo ang naghihintay. Sa pagitan ng kasunduang kasal at mga lihim na unti-unting nabubunyag, pipilitin ni Hestia na protektahan hindi lang ang puso niya, kundi pati ang kalayaan niyang pinangarap. Ngunit paano kung ang lalaking dapat ay iwasan niya… ang siya ring unti-unting minamahal?

Rhea was nothing—an orphaned omega, forgotten in the shadows of Crescent Shadow Pack. She was bullied, ignored, and born into a world that never wanted her. Her only warmth came from Lyra, the Beta’s radiant daughter—a girl Rhea worshipped like the sun, the one blessed by the Moon Goddess herself. Rhea lived for Lyra’s light. Until the Goddess turned her gaze. On her twentieth birthday, Rhea is thrust into the center of a destiny she never asked for—fated mate to the Alpha’s triplet sons. Three brothers, one throne, and a bond that will crown her as Luna. But only one mate can ascend. And the others? They may destroy her before they let her choose. Cassian, the wild heir who once loved Lyra and now hates Rhea for taking her place. Lucian, the perfect firstborn with ambition in his eyes and loyalty that cuts like a blade. Dorian, the soft-spoken charmer with a secret fire and a desperate hunger to matter. As power swells and envy brews, Rhea must rise from the ashes of who she was. The Moon has chosen her, but the pack? They will not kneel easily. Especially not when her bond pushes Lyra—the sun she once lived for—into shadow. Will Lyra accept becoming the shadow or will she come back for the light that was hers? In a world ruled by legacy and ambition, Rhea must decide if she is a girl surviving fate—or a Luna shaping it.

The room reeked of spilled champagne and poor decisions. Siena Blake blinked against the harsh morning light slicing through velvet curtains, her body aching in places she didn’t want to think about. She wasn’t in her bed. She wasn’t even in her house. And the man lying beside her—a stranger with a dangerously perfect face—was the proof. It was supposed to be her bachelorette party. One night of wild abandon with her friends before tying the knot with the man she’d loved since childhood. Instead, she had woken up in the arms of someone else, with no memory of how she got there. But that wasn’t the worst part. The worst came later—when she found police outside her house, her father being dragged away in handcuffs, and her fiancé, Zane, sending her a venom-laced message: “You’re a whore, Siena. Return the ring or I’ll leak the footage.” Within hours, her life was in ruins. Her family disgraced. Her heart shattered. And the man from that night? Lucian Voss—the most feared CEO in the country—stood behind it all, either by fate or by design. What started as an accident would become her obsession. Because five years later, she’s coming back… With a secret child. A mission for revenge. And a dangerous deal with the devil who unknowingly fathered her baby.

“Is that a threatened kitten?” he asked, amused, What? I snapped at him, pissed, “No, Asshole. If it were, you would already be dead,” I added, feeling the bolting rage rising within me. “Oh…” he smirked as he traced my jaw with his thumb, “I’m starting to like you more and more,” he said with a devilish grin, I froze in place, “Oh really? Well, too bad, ‘LUCIAN,’ cause I don’t give a fuck,” “Hahaha, you’re hilarious Mira,” he spat out as he took a seat on the mattress, I moved backward, staying far away from his reach, His eyes remained on me with every step I took. I turned angrily, “Is there something you want, husband?” And asked irritated, “Yes, in fact, there are a lot of things I want. But why don’t you start by explaining to me what you meant by ‘your man?’ huh?” he asked, and this time I could see the seriousness in his eyes, even when he tried to hide it. What will Mira do after four years of returning home, only to find out that she was traded off by her own father? A secret they kept hidden from her. Contracted: Love in the Shadow" Narrates a story filled with family betrayal and a passionate romance that totters at the edge of danger and desire.
