Dressed in ceremonial clothes, they line up to enter, and when they come out, their faces show a mix of pain and joy. When my eldest sister turned 18, Grandma forbade her from attending. However, one night, she snuck into the hall. When she came out, she was limping, and blood was dripping between her legs.

Sapphire - I had never seen a man as drop-dead gorgeous as Dylan. When his steel-grey eyes met mine, I knew I was in trouble. There was no way he would ever see me as anything other than Riley’s little sister. Fine, I am not ugly by any means, but I also know that with my blue hair and tattoos, most guys are turned off, and that doesn’t usually bother me, so why does it bother me regarding him? Of course, I would develop a crush on him. When he and two other teammates of Riley’s move in with us, I know I am in even deeper trouble. I swear, sometimes it appears that he is flirting, and what is with that pet name? There is no way Dylan is interested in me, is there? Dylan - As soon as her sapphire blue eyes met mine, I knew she was mine. Her brother Riley was my best friend and teammate, so I knew this would be tricky. It became even trickier when I moved in with them. It didn’t take long for Riley to figure it out. Between my flirting and the pet name, I gave her more or less gave it away. We hashed out our problems, but then she was attacked. Now her stepfather has sent people after her; he has no idea who he is up against and who he pissed off. No one touches what is mine, and I claimed Sapphire that night in the bar. My precious jewel is that, MINE! He will regret trying to harm her; they all will.

The tears stung in my eyes as I heard those words from his mouth, I still couldn’t believe it. “I-I d-don’t understand.” He grabbed my neck and pinned me to the wall, “If I ever lay my eyes on you again, I will kill you. An abomination like you can never be my mate.” He spat, his eyes filled with disgust. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After the lycans won the war against the humans and the witches, they ruled over every being in the kingdom of Mondegard. The alpha king was feared by all, but none has been as ruthless as Ryken. He ruled with brutality, with a heart frozen cold, he only cared about two things - power and status. Every being was subject to him - and Sapphire was no exception. Born an outcast, unable to shift and pitifully weak, she has always been trampled upon, blind to the truth of her existence. But fate so cruel mated her to none other than the merciless Alpha king, dragging her into a world of betrayal, ancient secrets and rebellion she never imagined. And he made her life a living hell because of it.

Ruby Colton is unlike any other Omega you’ve ever seen. She’s bold, sassy, and has the smarts to keep her alive. Though she has no single strength or power because of her small wolf, she’s hard working enough to make up for her flaws with her quick wits and bright brilliance. Lucian Pierce, who is also known as the ‘Dark Devil’, has no place for troublemakers in his pack. But he contradicts this rule of his by himself when he usurps the Blue Sky pack where Ruby is from and gives the sly troublemaker a place in his pack. Ruby needs Lucian’s protection to live peacefully away from her psychotic adoptive brother who wants her gone. Lucian needs Ruby’s wisdom to keep his pack safe from an uprising of a dangerous new breed of rogues. Ruby and Lucian being together is a complex juxtaposition of contradictions. But what can they do when the universe wants them to be together and their fates are entwined? They have no choice but to be life companions in that case.

Le froid la mordait jusqu’à l’os. Ses pieds nus s’enfonçaient dans la neige épaisse, déchirée ici et là par des racines mortes. Le vent hurlait à travers les sapins, semblable à un chant ancien, sauvage et indomptable. Bella courait. Sans savoir où elle allait. Sans regarder derrière. Elle n’avait pas le droit de se retourner. Pas maintenant qu'elle avait réussi . Ses poumons brûlaient. Ses bras étaient couverts d’égratignures. Son corps tremblait violemment, aussi bien de douleur que de peur. Une partie d’elle ne croyait pas encore à sa propre fuite. L’autre, plus sauvage, refusait de mourir sans avoir tenté une dernière fois de s’échapper de cet enfer dans lequel elle a vécu ces dernières années Elle avait attendu ce moment depuis si longtemps. Éric n’était pas là. Parti en voyage d’affaires. Un autre mensonge probablement il est tellement doué pour sa . Mais ses gardes du corps, eux, étaient bien là. Fidèles. Cruels. Insensibles à ses supplications , impitoyables . Pourtant, cette nuit-là, elle avait réussi. Maintenant, elle ne savait plus depuis combien d’heures elle courait. Ses souvenirs se brouillaient. Elle avait pris un train clandestinement, traversé des forêts, volé de la nourriture dans des stations-service... Et puis, elle avait suivi les montagnes. Le nord. Toujours plus au nord. Jusqu’à ce que la civilisation disparaisse. Un silence surnaturel régnait ici. Pas de réseau. Pas d’humains. Juste des kilomètres de forêts enneigées, de vallées perdues et de ruines oubliées juste ce dont elle avait besoin elle était sur qu'ici il ne la retrouvera jamais . Bella avait marché jusqu’à ce que ses jambes menacent de lâcher. Et c’est là qu’elle l’avait vue : une vieille maison abandonnée, à moitié effondrée, perdue au milieu d’une clairière glaciale.

Depuis six ans, je vivais secrètement amoureuse de Côme, mon demi-frère et Alpha de notre meute. Par une nuit de pleine lune, je me suis faufilée dans le siège de sa compagnie pour lui faire une surprise. Mais alors que j'approchais de son bureau, je les ai entendus, derrière la porte entrouverte : lui et Marcus, le Bêta de la tribu. « Tu traînes toujours avec cette demi-sœur, Aria ? Quand comptes-tu rompre ? Ne me dis pas que tu as des vrais sentiments pour elle. » Le rire froid de Côme m'a transpercé l'âme : « Des sentiments ? Elle n'est qu'une Bêta qui s'est jetée à moi. Une proie facile, tout simplement. Pourquoi me priver ? Ma Luna ne sera qu'Hélène. » « Son père a trahi la meute et a été banni. Sa mère a séduit le mien, causant la mort de ma propre mère. Ces six années… n'étaient qu'une punition. Elle mérite pleinement ce qui lui arrive. » Ainsi, le lien que je chérissais tant… n'avait toujours été qu'une vengeance minutieusement ourdie. Ces paroles douces, ces caresses tendres… tout n'était que MENSONGES imprégnés de venin. Si c'était le cas, je partirais. J'espérais seulement qu'il ne le regretterait pas !

est-ce lui mon sauveur ? si oui comment compte-t-il me sauver ? je suis une Fatima et c'est mon histoire. Cette histoire est simple mais profonde. C’est l’histoire d’une handicapée qui n’a pas la vie facile. Toutefois l’amour changera sa perception de la vie.

But when she stumbles into the path of Kieran Draven Wolfe, the most feared Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack, her fate is sealed. He offers her a choice—stand trial and face execution or become his mate to break his deadly curse. But Kieran isn’t the only one drawn to her.

As the Celestial Trials force her to choose a mate, dark forces rise, and secrets long buried begin to surface. Because the Midnight Syndicate doesn’t just want her dead—they want her power. And the truth? If she bonds with the wrong mate, she could doom them all. She was born a legend. She will die a queen—or a monster.
