Seraphina

In the heart of the opulent Veridian Heights, two souls from opposite ends of the spectrum are drawn together by forces beyond their control, setting the stage for a love story as tumultuous as it is irresistible. Meet Mace Sinclair, a formidable business mastermind with a ruthless edge, a genius mind, and a grin that could seduce the devil himself. The heir to the city's most influential dynasty, he thrives on control, power, and dominance. Yet beneath his cold, manipulative exterior lies a man haunted by a tragic past, and a thirst for redemption he never thought possible. Then there's Nysaa Everhart, a spirited and sharp-tongued troublemaker who refuses to bow to anyone. Beneath her fearless facade, she carries the scars of a painful history that has left her with trust issues and a determination to never rely on anyone but herself. Her unyielding spirit and unpredictable nature make her a force to be reckoned with. When their paths collide, the sparks of conflict ignite a slow-burning desire that neither can deny. Mace, in a twisted game of power, coerces Nysaa into taking care of his defiant niece, Seraphina, as payback for her challenges. As they navigate the forced proximity and constant battles of wills, their banter evolves into something deeper and more dangerous. Can they withstand it? Can they withstand the haunting clutches of their past?

The casino my husband and I ran was about to go through a chaotic police raid. Anyone who got caught would likely end up arrested. We had the time to leave. But we couldn’t all leave. One of us had to stay behind, or the cops would keep chasing us. Elias, my charming husband, didn’t even hesitate. He grabbed Mireille and left me to handle the cops, tossing over his shoulder, “I’ll send a lawyer to you.” Lucky for me, I managed to walk away without any consequences. And then, I saw, Elias, the man who was supposed to have my back, not only did escape without me, he also whisked Mireille away to some fancy resort, like they were on vacation. He looked so carefree, so unbothered. Not a hint of concern for the wife he’d just abandoned. “Think Seraphina’s gonna be mad that we left without her?” Mireille asked, all innocence. Elias laughed, that cold, detached laugh that sent a shiver down my spine. “Please. As if she’d ever get mad at me. She can handle herself.” He didn’t care. But you know what? Neither do I. Not anymore.

La vie d'Elara n'était qu'une trahison : fille illégitime, elle a été élevée comme une Cendrillon sans loup, méprisée par la Meute de son propre père. Sa seule valeur ? Devenir la Compagne de l'Alpha dominant, Rhys, à qui elle a donné un héritier malgré l'absence de sa propre forme de loup. Mais lorsque Seraphina, la femme du passé de Rhys, est revenue, les pièges incessants de la rivale et le manque cruel de confiance de Rhys ont forcé Elara à prendre une décision radicale. Elle a fui. Deux ans plus tard, alors que la Meute de Rhys s'effondre sous les menaces externes, il se prépare à accueillir un puissant allié: la femme qu'il a méprisée, est l'héritière d'une lignée bien plus ancienne. Le temps de la soumission est révolu. La seule Luna qu'il ait jamais eue est de retour pour le détrôner.

"Brother, please spare my life!" Sera cried out. She kneeled and bowed down to show sincerity but her brother's eyes did not show any emotion. "There is no mercy for traitors, Sera. That's the family motto, remember?" Xander's voice was stern and filled with contempt. "I didn't do it! I don't even know what the Duchess looked like!" She was desperate but none of her family members even tried to listen to her. "We shouldn't have accepted you. The prophecy was true when it said that you will only bring tragedy to this family!" Her father's voice was filled with rage. All her life, all she asked was to be acknowledged. All she wanted was to feel the warmth of a family. Was it too much to ask for? "I wish I was never born," she mumbled. "Prepare to die, Seraphina. This is the punishment for taking my mother's life." Xander lifted his sword and drops of blood splattered when the blade cut through Sera's head. "Sera!" Seraphina jolted when she heard her mother's voice. Her eyes grew wide when she saw the familiar small room and she immediately touched her neck to confirm that her head was not severed. What happened? Why am I back to my ten-year-old self?

Seraphina Nightbane was never meant to survive. Every fated mate she’s ever had is dead. Gone without a trace. Nobody. No scent. No answers. Now, no wolf dares to claim her. No pack will take her in. Because the message is clear—whoever mates her is as good as dead. But the Council doesn’t believe in curses. They believe in power. And an unmated she-wolf with no allegiance? That’s a threat they refuse to ignore. So they give her a choice. Take a mate. Or be exiled. But this time, she refuses to let fate decide for her. This time, she signs a contract. One deal. Four Alphas. A bond that never should have existed. Kieran Stormclaw—The ruthless Alpha King who doesn’t believe in love. Caspian & Cian Moonshadow—Twin Alphas, one cold and cunning, the other wild and unpredictable. Ronan Darkmoor—The cursed prince who looks at her like he already knows how this ends. She expects a political arrangement. A necessary evil. Nothing more. Then the first body appears. A wolf, slaughtered and left at her doorstep. A message written in its blood. "Your mate will die, just like the others." The curse isn’t done with her. The prophecy she’s spent her life running from is waking up. And the deeper she’s pulled into their world, the more she realizes— One will betray her. One will die for her. And one will try to kill her. She was never meant to have a mate. So why does fate refuse to let her go?

Now, Derrick is falling in love with me. He is getting obsessed and infatuated with me, also vowing to do anything to win my heart. But my heart already belongs to someone else, and Alexander has sworn to be damned over his dead body if he ever allows any other man to claim me.

Spain – isang tahimik na parke. Isang araw na dapat ay tulad ng iba, ngunit isang pamilyar na presensya ang yumanig sa mundo ko. "Mommy!" Napalingon ako sa sigaw ni Selene, mabilis na tumatakbo palapit sa akin. Kasunod niya si Cassian, mahigpit na nakahawak sa kamay ng isang matangkad na lalaki. Isang lalaki na hindi ko kailanman inakalang muli kong makikita. Nanlamig ang buong katawan ko. Hindi maaari. Dahan-dahan siyang lumuhod, bahagyang tinatapik ang ulo ni Cassian bago bumaling sa akin. "They got lost," malamig ngunit malalim ang tono niya. "I figured their mother would be worried." Napalunok ako, hindi makapagsalita. Alam kong nakita niya. Alam kong ramdam niya. "You…" bulong ko, halos hindi lumalabas ang boses ko. Ngunit bago pa ako makakilos, isang mas mabigat na presensya ang lumunod sa paligid. "Seraphina!" Napapitlag ako nang marinig ang boses ng taong matagal ko nang tinakasan. Si Daddy kasama si Mommy… at si Victor Alaric Vasquez. Malamig ang titig ni Daddy nang mapadako ang tingin niya sa kambal. "Who are these children?" malamig niyang tanong. Bago pa ako makasagot, isang malakas na tinig ang pumuno sa hangin. "They're mine." Napalingon ako sa kanya sa lalaking minsan ko lang nakilala ngunit ngayo'y handang ipaglaban ako.
