Aria Bennett never believed in the supernatural. To her, the world was simple… college classes, late-night study sessions, and quiet walks through the woods near her campus whenever life became overwhelming. One night, that walk changes everything. After wandering too far into a forest she has never seen before, Aria unknowingly crosses into territory that does not belong to humans. Within minutes she is surrounded by wolves… massive, terrifying creatures that should not exist. But the real shock comes when the wolves shift into men. Kael Nightfang, Rowan Vale, and Dante Moreau are the three Alpha heirs who rule the territory together. Feared across every pack in the region, the men share power and loyalty. Yet nothing could prepare them for the moment they catch Aria’s scent. Mate. The word slams into their instincts all at once. But the Moon Goddess has made a mistake… because the fragile girl standing in front of them is human. Now the three powerful Alphas find themselves drawn to the same woman, their wolves demanding they claim her while their minds battle the impossible bond between them. Kael, the dominant leader, refuses to share what should belong to him alone. Rowan, the calm strategist, suspects Aria’s presence may mean something far greater. And Dante, reckless and dangerously charming, is more than willing to fight both men for her heart. Caught in a world she never knew existed, Aria must survive pack politics, jealous she-wolves, and the growing tension between the three powerful men who want her. Because loving one Alpha is dangerous. But being the mate of three? That could start a war.

To end a twenty–year war, she must marry the monster who made her people bleed. To survive him, she’ll have to become something worse. Princess Maris Corvin of Aradal has spent her life blessing soldiers in a holy war against the werewolves of Tharros. When a fragile peace is finally brokered, the price is her hand—and her freedom. Sent to the cliff-carved fortress of Fenrith Keep as bride and hostage to the infamous Werewolf King, Rhael Vargan, Maris expects a barbarian beast. Instead she finds a ruthless, war-broken king, a court ruled by teeth and loyalty, and a bond of blood-and-moon magic that refuses to let her forget she is no longer entirely human… or entirely his enemy. As Maris navigates a brutal new world of pack law, shifting alliances, and howling moons, she uncovers a darker truth: the war was never just between humans and wolves. Something ancient and hungry stirs beneath the ravaged border known as the Wound, and it is feeding on their hatred. With fanatics in her homeland calling for her death and Rhael’s own people divided over their human queen, Maris must decide where her loyalty truly lies. Because if she and Rhael cannot learn to trust the bond that ties them together, the next war won’t just burn their kingdoms. It will wake the Red Warden—and devour them all.

After two years of development, my game finally launched successfully. My wife had promised me a $75,000 bonus, but instead, she gave the entire $750,000 payout to her male secretary, Wayne. All she tossed me was a $50 grocery coupon. "You're just a stay-at-home husband," she said casually. "You don't spend much. Go buy some groceries and cook dinner." I stared at her in disbelief. "That money is for our son's transplant surgery," I said. "If it's delayed for even a few days, he'll die." Her expression did not change. "He's weak. If he dies, he dies," she said flatly. "At least you won't bring any more bad luck into the office and pass it on to Wayne." She turned away, her tone instantly brightening as she talked about taking Wayne out that night to celebrate with a lavish dinner worth tens of thousands of dollars. In that instant, my heart froze. She had forgotten one thing. The game might be registered under her name, but I still held the core encryption key. I picked up the phone and called a rival company. "You've been trying to get Genyxis's core technology for a long time, haven't you?" I asked calmly. "All I want is $75,000, and it’ll be yours.”
