Peridot Crystal Gems

Ich war Alpha Damons leitende Beta. Sechs Jahre lang war ich seine Geliebte und stellvertretende Anführerin. Als er unsere Paarungszeremonie ankündigte, feierte das ganze Rudel. Mein Traum war endlich zum Greifen nah. Doch dann hörte ich ihn vor seinem privaten Trophäenraum über seine „Luna-Prüfungen“ prahlen. Und genau in dem Moment erkannte ich die Wahrheit. Ich war nicht seine Einzige. Ich war nur eine von dreißig Kandidatinnen. Einen Monat lang hatte er mit jeder von uns verbracht und bewertet: unsere Körper, unsere Unterwürfigkeit, unsere Leistung. Meine Punktzahl? Niedriger als die eines Omegas. Niedriger als die von Lydia. „Lydia zu ficken war unglaublich“, prahlte er. „Ich konnte kaum von ihr lassen. Dann sehe ich Elysia – so steif, so beherrscht – und bin einfach … gelangweilt.“ Eis durchströmte meine Adern. Mein Körper erstarrte. Sechs Jahre Hingabe. Unzählige Nächte in seinen Laken. All das bedeutete weniger als ein billiger Kick und eine Wölfin, die zu kriechen verstand. Mein gebrochenes Herz gefror zu Eis. Ich schickte eine Nachricht an einen Alpha, der mich schon lange begehrt hatte. „Adrian, du hast einmal gesagt, dein Paarungsangebot gelte uneingeschränkt. Gilt das noch? Damon und ich sind fertig.“

Betrayed by her fated mate. Claimed by his father. Claire White’s world shatters when the man destined to be her mate abandons her. Seeking escape, she drowns her sorrows in a bar—until a dark, magnetic stranger ignites a fire in her blood. Theo is intoxicating, dangerous… and her wolf reacts to him in a way it never did with her so-called mate. But fate isn’t done with her. When her father falls ill, Claire is left drowning in debt—and her ex, Adrian, cruelly offers to pay… if she becomes his mistress. Refusing means ruin, but surrendering means losing herself forever. Then comes her only lifeline—a high-stakes job working for the most powerful Alpha in the city. Theo. Her savior. Her boss. And Adrian’s father. Now, trapped between duty and desire, Claire must navigate a world of pack politics, forbidden lust, and deadly secrets. Theo is everything she shouldn’t want—older, dominant, and her ex-mate’s sire. But the pull between them is raw, primal, and impossible to deny. Will she risk everything for a love that could destroy them both?

“She has to be at an age range that was close to mine, smart, beautiful, and a virgin” he said looking at his mother whose eyes widened. “Alpha, how are we to find out if she was a virgin or not…?” “I don’t care, if I am to marry a human who isn’t my mate, then she is to be one who has never been touched by a man” the Alpha said getting up from the couch. “What are we to do, mum?” His sister asked. “We’ll find him what he asked for…” And that is exactly what they did… ************** When Alpha Blake had put out his condition on his mother and sister, he never thought that they would be able to find the woman he asked for in such a short period of time. However, when they showed him her picture, he was forced to comply. “Her name is Natalia Adams, and she is everything you asked for”

Je suis née sans louve intérieure. À l'académie, Arabella m'a fait vivre un enfer à cause de ça. Quand j'ai obtenu mon diplôme, ma louve s'est enfin éveillée, me dotant de puissants pouvoirs de guérison. J'ai cru que le cauchemar était enfin terminé. J'ai rencontré mon âme sœur, l'Alpha Tristan. Il était puissant, magnifique, et m'a promis la lune et les étoiles. Mais le jour où je suis allée annoncer à Tristan que j'étais enceinte, j'ai découvert son terrible mensonge. Ce n'était jamais Tristan dans mon lit. C'était son frère jumeau, Ronan. L'Alpha renégat qui avait abandonné la tribu des années plus tôt pour vivre parmi les humains. Ronan a utilisé un imitateur d'odeur pour se glisser dans mon lit, pour me rendre enceinte. Tout n'était qu'un complot pour m'humilier le jour le plus important. Ils voulaient se venger d'Arabella, qui avait menti et m'avait accusée de l'avoir harcelée. Ils voulaient me détruire. J'ai fait irruption dans le bureau pour les affronter. Je leur ai dit que j'allais tout révéler et exiger des excuses. Cependant, ils m'ont emprisonnée. Ils ont accompli un rituel obscur, transférant ma louve vers Arabella. Ils ont drainé ma force vitale et tué mon petit à naître. Je suis morte dans d'atroces souffrances. Puis j'ai ouvert les yeux. J'étais de retour au jour où j'avais découvert que j'étais enceinte. Je serrais mon ventre contre moi, une larme coulant sur ma joue. Ces salauds allaient payer pour ce qu'ils avaient fait.

“Our marriage is never going to be a real one,” Irina said, looking at the Rogue who was betrothed to her. “As long as you fulfill your part of the deal, it doesn’t have to be.” Alpha Kai said, his eyes hardening as he took a step back. “I’ll see you walking down the aisle. Until then, I suggest that you think wisely of your choices…” *********************************** Forced to marry a rogue at the ripe age of twenty, Irina finds herself stuck between two choices. Either give the Rogue Alpha a child and be loyal to him or her save her family from the wrath of the Medici who was more than willing to get his revenge from her father over a debt of years.

Ich war ein Mädchen aus dem Slum, das sich in Damon Vitale verliebte – den gefürchtetsten Don von New York. Fünf Jahre lang gehörte ich ihm. Neun Kugeln fing ich für ihn ab. Er küsste meine Narben, während ich für ihn verblutete. Hielt mich fest. Legte mir die Königinnenkette um den Hals. Und sobald ich geheilt war, vögelte er mich um den Verstand – mit einer Leidenschaft, die sich anfühlte wie für immer. Ich dachte, wir würden unser Leben miteinander verbringen. Ich dachte, er würde mich heiraten. Doch in unserer 999. gemeinsamen Nacht eröffnete er mir, dass er verlobt sei. Mit Bianca, einer Mafiaprinzessin aus einer Rivalenfamilie. Ich schluckte meine Tränen hinunter. Er packte nur mein Kinn, blies mir Rauch ins Gesicht und lachte. „Du hast doch nicht wirklich geglaubt, du könntest mich heiraten, oder, Nora? Lass uns eines klarstellen: Wir ficken. Das ist alles. Du bist keine Partnerin. Du bist ein Kunstwerk, das ich sammle. Ein Haustier, das mir gehört.“ Ein Haustier. Mehr wollte er nie aus mir machen. Stattdessen griff ich nach einem Wegwerfhandy. [Ich nehme dein Angebot an. Drei Tage. Hol mich verdammt nochmal aus New York raus.]

Right before our Mating Ceremony, my mate, Alpha Damien, told me he had to temporarily mark an Omega from our pack, Seraphina. He claimed she had the Moon Sickness and would die if he didn't mark her. I fought him on it, but the next day, he moved Seraphina right into the penthouse of the Pack House. The suite meant for the future Luna. My suite. To calm me, he even got on his knees, his eyes red as he promised, "Once she's safe, I'll remove the mark. You'll still be my only Luna." But then, Seraphina found me, a medical report in her hand. Six weeks pregnant. They'd already held their marking ceremony long before Damien ever came to me. My heart shattered into ash. My pen dug into the calendar, carving a vicious X over the date that was supposed to be our Mating Ceremony. Then, I opened my laptop and replied to the email from the European Laurel Healers' Guild. "I accept your invitation. I leave on the day of the Mating Ceremony."

My fated mate, Dexter, became the Alpha King when his brother died. He inherited the crown, the power… and his brother’s widowed mate, Jenica. All because I, a half-breed, had failed for years to give him a pureblood heir. He told me he had to mark Jenica, and the pain nearly shattered me. But he held me close, kissed my tears, and swore that his wolf, his fate, had chosen only me. That I would always be his one and only Luna. I believed him. And yet, he still spent every night in her bed. Then, Jenica became pregnant. While the pack celebrated, Dexter forced me from the Luna’s suite, all so her pup could be born into the pack’s purest lunar aura. As I felt our bond unravel thread by painful thread, I sent a final, coded message to a friend in the human world. “In four days, get me out.” That night, I made a choice. My time as his mate was over.
