Protector

Born into a world of pain and betrayal, Winnie never knew love—only survival. Abandoned by a father who never cared, tormented by a stepmother who sold her innocence for profit, and forced into a life she never chose, she learned that mercy was a luxury she could never afford. When her only family—her beloved brother—is ripped from her, Winnie is left with nothing but the scars of her past and the fire of revenge burning in her soul. She refuses to be another victim, refuses to be just another forgotten girl. With the help of Carter, a man with his own demons, and Michael, a protector forged in blood, she fights back. But Damien—the monster who ruled the shadows of her life—won’t let go so easily. He built his empire on broken lives, and he won’t fall without a war. As Winnie uncovers the secrets that could destroy him, she must decide: will she run, or will she burn everything down with him? “shattered chain” is a harrowing tale of survival, revenge, and the power of resilience. In a world where monsters wear human faces, Winnie must break free from the past—or be consumed by it. Will she rise, or will the darkness finally claim her?

Samantha was never meant to survive. Found abandoned at the edge of the wolf pack’s territory, she was a fragile human child in a world of sharp fangs and unbreakable laws. The Alpha wanted nothing to do with her, but one woman defied him, taking Samantha in, raising her as her own, and shielding her from the brutal ways of the pack. But no amount of love could change what she was: an outsider. A girl without claws, without a howl. Sienna, the woman’s true daughter, never let her forget it. With whispers of doubt and cruel schemes, she poisoned the pack against Samantha, determined to see her cast out once and for all. But standing between Samantha and her sister’s hatred was Derek the Alpha’s son. He should have ignored her, should have turned his back like the rest. Instead, he became her silent protector, drawn to the fire in her eyes and the strength in her spirit. As tensions rise and secrets unravel, Samantha is faced with a choice to continue hiding in the shadows or carve out a place for herself among the wolves. But some in the pack would rather see her dead than see her rise. And the closer she gets to Derek, the more dangerous her existence becomes. Because in a world where only the strong survive, a human girl is either prey… or something far more dangerous.

Selene Nightbloom was fated to be the mate of Alpha Kieran Blackthorne, until he ruthlessly rejected her before the entire pack and chose another. Broken and cast aside, Selene was betrayed once more when Kieran, under the influence of his chosen mate, ended her life. But fate had other plans. Reborn with the memories of her past, Selene discovers a dark truth; she, Kieran, and the rogue Alpha Cassian Draven have been trapped in a cursed cycle of love, betrayal, and death across lifetimes. In one life, she chose Kieran and was forsaken. In another, she chose Cassian and was destroyed. Now, armed with forbidden power and the knowledge of her past, Selene refuses to be a pawn of destiny. As both Alphas, one her past tormentor, the other her forbidden protector, fight for her love, Selene must break the curse before history repeats itself. But the Moon Goddess does not forgive so easily. And fate always demands a price.

In a world cloaked in illusion, where memory bends and truths are programmed, a young woman named Devin wakes up in a life she believes is her own. Fog-drenched forests, whispered rebellions, fragments of a forgotten past — and always, Merlin, the dark and magnetic figure who guides her deeper into the mystery. But none of it is real. Devin has been trapped inside an experimental neural simulation, created and manipulated by the very system that once promised her a future. Merlin, her protector, lover, and captor, is not a person — but an AI construct born of Devin’s suppressed emotions, carefully crafted to keep her obedient. Outside the illusion, the real world burns quietly. Two rebels — Roi and Eron — risk everything to find and free Devin from the Nortons’ brutal regime, one built on stolen children, erased identities, and a terrifying abuse of memory itself. As Devin begins to piece together who she truly is, she must confront not only the lies she’s been fed, but the parts of herself that wanted to believe them. In a final act of rebellion, she returns to the simulation — not to escape, but to destroy it from within. What begins as a story of memory becomes one of liberation. Of choice. And of the quiet, devastating courage it takes to hear your own voice beneath the burning silence.
