Lycan

The Dark Forest is a place of whispers and nightmares, where few dare to tread—and even fewer survive. For Silas, the feared and unyielding Lykan King, it is just another hunting ground. But on a night when the air is thick with the scent of blood and fear, he finds her. A defiant, breathless beauty running for her life, chased by werewolves bent on her destruction. Silas doesn’t ask who she is or why they want her dead. All he knows is that she’s his. From the moment their eyes meet in the shadows, something ancient and primal takes root in his soul. He will protect her at any cost, even as she fights to escape his grasp. But she’s not just fleeing her pursuers—she’s running from a force far darker, a nightmare that even Silas’s strength may not be enough to face. And as her secrets slowly unravel, so does his iron will. He becomes consumed, his obsession burning hotter with every moment she remains just out of reach. Danger closes in from all sides, and enemies from his past rise to claim what they believe is theirs. But Silas doesn’t share. She is his mate, his salvation, and his greatest weakness. To protect her, he’ll risk his kingdom, his life, and the savage beast that roars within him. Because in the end, no one escapes the Lykan King—not even the one he would die to save.

“Valerian!” a cry came from outside and my feet rushed to the door, my body having recognised the voice before my brain could comprehend what was happening. I yanked the door open and almost broke down crying at the sight before me, “Queen Lyla!” Bethany gasped from behind me. I scooped her into my arms, my eyes searching for any unwanted presence before rushing her into the living room. “Valerian put me down, we don’t have much time!” she rushed out the command as she struggled to get down. Silently obeying, I put her down, taking note of how she looked and it wasn’t pretty. Her hair, that was always neatly made, looked like a bird’s nest; twigs and leaves hanging from the knots. Her long white sleeping robe dirty and bloody from her waist down, she looked a royal mess; with a bunch of blankets wrapped around her upper half. “My Queen, what happened?” Beth asked as she handed me my medicine bag.

In a world full of predators, Caroline is human. A heartbreak leads her to a one-night stand, and now, she’s pregnant with a child that shouldn’t even exist. A pregnancy that puts her at the centre of a war. Salvatore is the last Lycan alive. Infamous for his rage and power, he’s feared and revered by humans and wolves alike. He was never meant to have a future, until her. Now, enemies rise from all angles: rogue wolves who want her dead, humans who see her womb as a weapon, and ghosts from their pasts who want them gone. As her body changes and her power awakens, the bond between them deepens into something neither can escape, because the baby she’s carrying will bring a new dawn or sink the entire supernatural world into eternal damnation.

"Touch her, and I'll rip your throat out with my bare hands." For centuries, King Valerian Goremane has ruled the Shadowpeak Territories with brutal efficiency, his heart as frozen as the northern wastelands he conquered. The most powerful Lycan in existence, he's never bowed to anyone, until the night he catches her scent. Aria Thorne isn't supposed to exist. Born human in a world ruled by wolves, marked with a strange silver birthmark she's hidden her entire life, she's survived by staying invisible. But when she accidentally crosses into Shadowpeak during a desperate escape from her abusive stepfather, everything changes. Valerian knows instantly, she's his. His fated mate. The one weakness he swore never to have. But there's a problem. An ancient prophecy declares that the king's true mate will either be his salvation or his complete destruction. The same prophecy that caused Valerian to reject and exile his first mate twenty years ago, a decision that cursed him with a beast he can barely control. Now, with Aria's life hanging in the balance, enemies closing in from every direction, and his own pack questioning his sanity, Valerian faces an impossible choice: claim the woman fate has given him and risk everything he's built, or let her go and lose the only person who's ever made him feel human. Aria refuses to be owned. Valerian refuses to be denied. And the prophecy? It's only just beginning to unfold. In a kingdom ruled by blood and power, can love survive the beast within... or will it awaken something far more dangerous than either of them could imagine?

"Look me in the eyes, Raven. Tell me that you don't want me, that you don't want this..." He whispered, his voice a teasing caress to her ears. "I hate you.
