Noctis Draven 소설 & 이야기

"You said anyone who wants my pathetic self can have me, Kieran. Say hello to the three men who do." For three months Selene Ashcroft floated between life and death. A car accident arranged by rogue wolves stole her unborn son and left her alone in a hospital bed. Not one visitor. Not one flower. Not one call from the husband she gave her life to. When Selene finally comes home, she finds Alpha heir Kieran Draven tangled on the couch with her older sister Jessica. The same sister who ran away years ago because she refused to marry him. The same sister he really wanted from the start. Kieran doesn't apologize, he simply informs her that Jessica is moving in as his Second Mate. Something inside Selene breaks. She asks him if she's allowed a second mate too. He laughs and tells her nobody would ever want her pathetic self. That night, drunk and shattered at a bar, Selene runs into Caius, Ronan and Killian Ashbourne. The infamous Ashbourne triplets. Her husband's closest friends. The three men who have hated her since the day she married Kieran. She wakes the next morning in a hotel room with hazy memories and their scent all over her skin. She goes home to pack her things and asks Kieran for a divorce. But he refuses and tells her he doesn't let women like her damage his reputation. He tells her she's staying and helping plan the ceremony and if she tries to run, Amelia pays the price. Selene smiles for the first time in months and agrees to stay. But not without quietly planning her own revenge.

“Let me go!” He laughed, crimson bleeding into his irises and his fangs glinting with delight. Wrapping her legs around himself he cupped her behind that peeked from under the shorts she had on, licking at her ear, purring. “Did you like my presents?” Nyx scowled, pushing hard at his chest, hating the way her breath hitched in her throat from his touch, hating the little gasps that left her lips from the tingles she felt when his hands continued to graze her skin. “The flimsy clothes or the fact that you just turned me a feeder?” “Both. I thought you'd appreciate my gifts.” “Give me the antidote,” Draven cocked a brow, almost laughing at her pinced expression. Slowly bringing his face closer to hers, their lips merely inches apart he spoke, “Beg for it,” “You promised! You said you would give it to me!” “I didn't say when, did I? Maybe if you try to be a good little girl, I might as well be generous and offer you the cure you so desperately seek.” ††★★†† On the verge of the 21th century with vampires seizing power from humans, domineering them and plunging them back into the medieval times, Nyx a human hunter struggling to adapt to having the undead around becomes a vampire killer herself. Until she crosses path with the ever-so-deadly King of vampires, Draven. Claiming her under the ruse of a mate bond and condemning her to a life of slavery, he makes her the empire's whore. But as the pair grows close, Nyx slowly begins to pry off his bravado and shatter his world, opening the cold hearted vampire to a new kind of emotion. When the court demands a pure blooded queen, he knows he has more to protect than just the empire.

Sage Draven’s life goes up in flames at her own engagement party—her boyfriend dumps her in front of the entire wolf pack, sneering that she’s “she’s as bland as white rice.” Then her best friend drops the real bomb: she’s been sleeping with him for six months. They’re “true mates.” Blessed by the Moon Goddess. And Sage? Just the pathetic human stepping stone. Humiliated and shattered, she drowns her sorrows in a high-end bar—and falls into bed with a devastatingly handsome stranger. One night of insane chemistry later, she learns his real name: Kael Thorne. Her ex’s boss. The most feared Alpha CEO in the city. And now… the father of her baby. Desperate and hiding her pregnancy, Sage accepts a bizarre job offer from Kael as his executive assistant. Working side by side, the heat between them is impossible to ignore. When Kael discovers the truth, he makes her a shocking proposal: become his fake mate to silence his family’s matchmaking, and he’ll provide for her and the child. It’s just business. Until it isn’t. But Sage carries an even more dangerous secret. She’s not a nobody. She’s the lost heiress to the Moonhaven Luna bloodline—worth billions, hunted by enemies, and tied to a prophecy she never wanted. When her true identity explodes into the open, everyone who rejected her comes crawling back. Her ex. Her former best friend. Rival packs. And the killers who murdered her parents. Now Sage must decide: Is the ruthless Alpha worth the fight? Can this fake bond become something real? And will she rise as the Luna Queen she was born to be—or be destroyed by the wolves at her door?

“I don’t care who they think you belong to or if they think I’m cursed,” Xaden’s voice drops, rough with an edge dangerously close to possession. “When you’re not near me, I’m not myself. I exist because you do. And when that uncontrollable hunger takes over you- tell me, Liliana… who else can satisfy it?” Liliana shivers, “I can’t…” Alpha Xaden’s hand slides to her waist. “Are you already in heat, mine? ” His voice matches the intensity of her need. A promise to ruin her. ~ She’s The Cursed Alpha’s cure. The Wizard’s secret. The Dragon’s chosen. Liliana Veyne enters Supraveil Academy to kill. Hidden behind a stolen identity, her mission is simple- get close to the future Alpha, Xaden Draven, earn his trust, and end his life. Then find her missing sister, the one who was taken the night their parents were slaughtered- and finish what was started years ago. But Supraveil is nothing like she imagined or has heard about. Wolves are not the only predators trained within its walls. Witches, dragon riders, and creatures she thought existed only in forgotten history now walk beside her- each one preparing for a war against something far more terrifying than death itself. Alpha Xaden is worse than the rumors. Due to his curse, he’s untouchable. Every woman he mates dies under him. Liliana was never supposed to be his true mate. But when she’s in his presence, she’s a mess of puddles. Why do two other powerful men- the academy’s most feared mage, and Xaden’s own twin, seem drawn to her in ways that make escape impossible? What if loving the men who would do anything to claim her means stepping straight into ruin?
