“He bought me for one night. I gave him a lifetime. Then he tried to return me." THE CALDWELL POSSESSION SERIES - BOOK ONE Nora Callahan has three rules: Never trust a man in a suit. Never cry where anyone can see. Never, ever fall for someone who owns more than they feel. She breaks all three in one night. Dominic Caldwell is the kind of man who buys things, companies, properties, silence. He's never lost a bid in his life. So when a charity auction goes sideways and Nora ends up on that stage by accident, trembling in a borrowed dress with fire in her eyes, he does what he always does. He bids. He wins. He takes her home. What he doesn't expect is that she won't stay broken. That she'll laugh at his coldness and cry at his cruelty and somehow, somehow make him feel like a man again instead of a machine. What he doesn't expect is that the woman he bought for one charity dinner will become the only thing in his empire he can't put a price on. But Dominic has a secret that could destroy everything. And Nora has a past she's never told anyone. And when both collide on the worst night of their lives the only question left is this: *Can you love someone you ruined? Can you forgive someone who let you fall?* This is not a love story. This is what happens after the love story ends and two broken people have to decide if they're brave enough to begin again.

"Are you afraid of me, Celina?" The Prince asked huskily, and she shivered at the intense look in his eyes. She didn't answer, making him take a step forward in her direction.He reached over and ran his thumb across her cheekbones, watching her breathing pause as she dared not move beneath the touch of this strange, imposing man. "Well, you should be." *** Celina Roman is a wallflower, shy, reserved but loved by people around her.

Like that of the devil, people either whisper it in fear or worship the ground he walks. He is rich, cold, demanding and likes to be all alone in a Dark Palace, protecting his secret. When Celina steps on his doorstep his life changes forever. Filled with secrets and scars, these two individuals are thrown together to live under the same roof. Will they find a way together or forever stay apart? ***

Damon spared him a glance before turning to me. “Do you want his head, little mouse?” *** Sabrina thought nothing could be worse than being deceived by the man she loved the most—until the day he shattered her world completely. “Elena is my mate, and I’ve deceived you this entire time. We recognized each other the moment she turned eighteen.

When her family and pack offered her as a sacrifice to the most feared Alpha in existence, she realized her nightmare was only beginning. *** Alpha Damon Blackthorn, a thousand years old beast cursed by a witch, a ruthless leader no one dared to defy. Yet, from the moment he laid his eyes on Sabrina, something snapped. Mate. His wolf yearned for her, yet she couldn’t recognize him. She was wolfless. *** Sabrina wanted an escape. Ever since she came to the blackthorn pack, something changed. It felt like she was hallucinating and was on the verge of going mad. She had crazy dreams. Dreams so vivid they bled into reality, warning her of what was to come. A connection between her and Damon simmered beneath the surface, dangerous, forbidden, and impossible to ignore. But the truth is far darker than either of them realize. Sabrina wasn’t just a sacrifice…she was the key to breaking Damon’s curse. And with war looming and ancient forces stirring, Sabrina must decide: escape and save herself, or embrace the darkness and risk losing her soul to the cursed Alpha who might just be her fate. Note: This book is a slow burn. Main Leads don’t fall in love till later.

SOLD TO THE ALPHA FOR A ONE NIGHT STAND When he stepped into view, all my breath left me in one sharp gasp. His presence filled the room, an overwhelming force that took my breath away. He stood tall and confident, his black hair styled back, a few stray strands falling over his forehead, giving him a wild edge. His jaw was strong, a neatly trimmed beard only accentuating his chiseled features. He was devastatingly handsome, but it wasn’t just his looks that affected me, it was the aura around him, the power that radiated from every inch of his body. His eyes locked with mine, and an overwhelming sense of power washed over me. My heart pounded in my chest, racing like I had no control over it. This man wasn’t just anyone. There was something primal in his gaze, something dangerous and alluring. Something...otherworldly.

He asked for her body. Her loyalty. Her womb. And in return, he gave her a betrayal so cruel it broke something sacred. Nadia was never Greg’s love, just a placeholder for the woman he truly wanted. Used, discarded, and left bleeding in the woods like a broken toy. But fate wasn’t done with her yet. Varic, the cold-blooded Alpha with a vendetta of his own, finds her at her lowest and offers her everything: power, protection and revenge. In exchange, she becomes his Queen. What started as a fake alliance turns into something savage. Something possessive. Because Nadia isn’t just a forgotten omega anymore. She’s the spark of a bloodline long buried. She’s the mate he never wanted.

And her revenge begins not with a knife, but with a smile. Her target? His father — a cold, enigmatic billionaire who’s always kept his distance from the family drama. She slips into his world like smoke, slowly making herself indispensable… and irresistible.

Thanks to an accident, I'm somehow able to get on a phone call with the past version of me from seven years ago. Upon hearing that I will be getting engaged to Edward Herring soon, Younger Me is so excited that she keeps rolling around in bed. She also claims that she will be the happiest woman in the world seven years later. Am I happy, though? I can only smile bitterly without saying anything. Then, I silently show Younger Me the old scars of the suffering and pain I've gone through in the past. The gentle Edward is no longer here. Now, the Edward I'm with is the type who allows others to call me a manipulative bitch repeatedly and demands that I grovel to his first love, Madison Scott, and her family in a form of apology before our engagement. "So, do you still want a future like this?" The sparkle in Younger Me's eyes fades away instantly. After that, my past has been rewritten. Let's never see each other from the start, Edward Herring.

When my parents got old, they needed someone to take care of them. Katerina—my younger sister—was off to Amiraka with her smug husband Chris. Meanwhile, I was crammed into a two-bedroom in Bellavaro with my husband Pavel, who drove a taxi. Mom had no retirement savings, so guess who she dumped herself on? Yep—me. Dad took the cash and ran straight to Katerina. Our place was tiny, but we still gave Mom the master bedroom. She hated it. Constant complaints, constant drama. According to her, life with me was pure misery. Every night, she'd hop on video call with Katerina, gushing about Amiraka like it was heaven, while throwing shade at me for not "taking care of her properly." Meanwhile, I was drowning—trying to hold it together for Mom, help my daughter prep for exams, support a husband with spine problems, and check in on aging in-laws. Mom didn't care. She wanted a plane ticket to Amiraka to party for Katerina's birthday. I snapped. We had a blowout fight, and she collapsed—brain hemorrhage. Even in her hospital bed, she stared me down, whining Katerina's name like a broken record. Then she spat out, "I should've never picked a useless daughter like you!" My chest cracked in half. I blacked out. When I woke up—I was ten years younger. Back to the day they decided who'd get stuck taking care of them. This time, Mom didn't wait. "I want Katerina to take care of me. It's my turn to enjoy life!"

They shoved me into an iron cage and dragged me to the black market like I was nothing. Shackled. Filthy. Cursed. The wolf girl who killed her own mother. The one no pack wanted. The one destined to rot. I thought I’d die there, mocked and spit on, until he appeared. Ezekiel Thornclaw. Alpha heir of the Bloodfang Pack. Ruthless. Lethal. Terrifying. The moment his storm-gray eyes met mine, the world shifted. His breath hitched. His voice broke like a vow etched in fire: “Mate.” He didn’t flinch at the filth or the curse. He tore through my chains as if the world itself bowed to him. And when he claimed me, his words burned into my bones— “You’re mine now. And I’ll burn every pack to ash before I let them touch you.” But Ezekiel isn’t the only one who wants me. His half-brother Draven—the rebel with golden eyes and dangerous hands—offers me freedom instead of chains. And in the shadows waits Ravena, the witch-wolf who cursed my blood, determined to see me destroyed. From captive to Luna. From curse to crown. This is not a love story. This is survival.
