After ten years of being mated, I discovered my aloof Alpha mate had been keeping a sunshine-like Omega lover. That Omega could bring warmth and light to everyone she meets. My Alpha mate, Dominic, who had spent his childhood in the doldrums, was easily attracted by that kind of pure warmth. That very night, I presented him with a mate bond severance agreement. Dominic sneered coldly as he tore up the agreement, throwing a psychiatric evaluation at me instead. "Sign this. Admit you have delusional disorder, and I'll send you to the best mental hospital to live out your days. I know all about your dirty little tricks. I won't give you any chance to hurt her." So, all these years… every little thing I’d done to protect him? To him, it was just despicable scheming. I refused to sign. Dominic had me bound and tortured with silver powder, watching coldly as I convulsed in agony. He even had our two five-year-old pups hung from the bow of massive ships about to collide. "Either sign, or watch them get crushed to pulp. Your call." I dropped to my knees on the deck, banging my head against the wood like a madwoman, begging him to let me sign. But it was too late—I watched helplessly as my pups' small bodies got torn apart by metal shrapnel. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day I discovered he was keeping that girl. I decided never to love him again. But after I left him, Dominic suddenly went mad searching for me everywhere.

As the younger sister of the most powerful Alpha in the Southern Territory, I dated Damon, my brother's biggest rival for Alpha King, for five years without telling my brother and parents. We were in love for five years, and he gave me everything. He always tells me his wolf can't control its desire when it sees me. That's why he likes to have sex with me anywhere, anytime—even out in the wild, he doesn't care. But the day before our mating ceremony, I found out that my fiancé was dating me just to threaten my brother to quit the election with our sex tape. After knowing the truth, I decided to give up everything and leave, but my fiancé humbly knelt on the ground and begged me to come back.

À la veille de notre cinquième anniversaire d'union, je m'apprêtais à lui annoncer mon héritage : la meute de mon père Alpha. C'était alors que je les ai surpris, lui et la louve qui jadis m'avait tant humiliée, échangeant un baiser passionné. « Cinq ans à jouer cette comédie, il est temps d'y mettre fin. » « La voir accourir comme un chien obéissant était si ennuyeux. Quelle idiote... Se laisser berner par un faux certificat d'union ! Croire qu'une orpheline pourrait devenir la Luna de la Meute de l'Ombre Lunaire ? Si elle n'avait pas eu un minois acceptable, je n'aurais même pas daigné jouer ce rôle. » Chaque mot m'a transpercée comme une lame de glace. Un tremblement incontrôlable m'a parcouru l'échine. Cette lumière dont je croyais avoir été sauvée des ténèbres du harcèlement... n'était qu'un leurre perfide, un mirage d'infidélité... Dans ce cas, je rejetterais sans regret cette comédie mensongère !

He shattered her. A stranger awakened her. Now she’ll burn the world for her own redemption. Lila was a wolfless omega—obedient, unseen, and promised to an Alpha who shattered her with one cruel betrayal. One night with a stranger changes everything. Elliot is vengeance in a tailored suit. Cold. Unforgiving. And Lila is the daughter of the man he’s sworn to destroy. She was never meant to matter—until the mate bond snaps into place, and hatred turns to hunger. Then there’s Julian. Gentle. Steady. Safe. In his arms, Lila glimpses a life untouched by pain. But even the kindest hearts carry shadows. Caught between the fire and the calm, between a love that burns and a love that heals, Lila must face the truth of her bloodline, the secrets that bind her to both men—and the power growing inside her. She’s done being obedient. She’s done being silent. And she won’t just survive—she’ll rise from the ashes.

After a wild college party, Isla woke up and her eyes almost pop out of their sockets. Damien Da Silva was lying beside her. He was her crush, her first love, the boy she's dare not look in the eyes because she's not in his league. When he wakes up, he said to her coldy; “Get out of my sight. And don’t tell anyone what happened, or I’ll make the rest of your life hell.” But the next day, the video leaks. He shows up angrily and spat to her face; “You’re just desperate for my attention. Everyone knows you’re not my type.” Eight years later, at a business gala, Isla and Damien bumps into each other. “Isla Pereira?” he calls out. “Khan,” “What?” “It’s no longer Pereira. It’s Khan,” she flashed her sapphire-halo diamond ring before his face. He looks surprised and disappointed. “You’re married?” Isla smirks, “You’d rather I waited for you?”

I was preparing a gift for our six-year anniversary when my best friend sent me a photo of my Alpha boyfriend kissing another she-wolf. "Wait, when did you get to Chicago?" The she-wolf in the picture looked a lot like me, but it wasn't me. That's when I found out that my boyfriend of six years had been searching for replacements for his dead childhood sweetheart the whole time. I was number 5. The she-wolf in the photo was number 18. I rushed to Chicago and tracked down Lucas using his phone's location. "Dude, this number 18 really looks like Ally, even more than Sophia does!" "Nah man, Sophia still looks more like her. She's number 5 after all - if she didn't look so much like Ally, why would Lucas have stuck with her for six years?" Lucas flicked his cigarette ash, looking completely relaxed: "They both look pretty similar, but number 18's way better in bed. Sophia's too uptight." "I heard you had someone pick out a diamond ring. You planning to propose? To Sophia or this new chick?" Lucas leaned back into the couch with a cocky grin: "Haven't decided yet. Why don't you guys choose for me?" I turned around, my whole body shaking as a chill ran from my head to my toes. After calming down, I texted my best friend: "Your Alpha cousin, the one who had a crush on me and waited four years - is he still single?"

The night of my first shift at eighteen, my two older brothers brought home a twelve-year-old orphaned Omega. My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.
