Shadows And Bones Cast Novels & Stories

"I, Jeremy Rock, Alpha of the Rock River Pack, reject you, Aiana Steel, as my mate..." He said those words, and I didn't even know the particular emotion that I felt the more. Disappointment? Hatred? Or shame? Again, someone else didn't want me. When Alpha Jeremy Rock cast aside his fated mate, Aiana Steel who was a powerful yet broken hybrid, Aiana had assumed it was because she was a "defective" werewolf, one who couldn’t even shift due to her inherited warlock abilities. But that wasn't it as Jeremy’s rejection wasn’t out of disgust. It was a sacrifice, meant to shield her from dark forces within his own pack, forces that would destroy her if they discovered her true power. Yet fate refused to let them go their separate ways. Aiana’s rejection curse is killing her slowly, and Jeremy’s long buried enemies have become confidence by the day. Together, they face a choice, either to walk away from their bond, or be united and conquer the shadows of their past. As old grudges resurfaced and unexpected alliances are formed which threatens to tear them apart, Jeremy must decide on whether to abandon his quest to avenge his parents' murder to save his dying mate. And Aiana was left to chose between surrendering her wolf side to survive the rejection, or fight back and risk everything. Dive into The Lyncan's Fated Hybrid Mate, an electrifying, suspense filled romance that takes two scarred souls on a journey of survival, vengeance, and love that defies all odds.

No wolf. No mate. No place in the world. On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Ava Cole waited for her wolf — and nothing came. In a kingdom built on strength, that made her nothing. Laughed at, cast out, and abused by everyone who should have loved her — including her own family — Ava learned to survive in the shadows of a world that had no use for her. Then she met her fated mate. Alpha Jackson Edgar, the powerful Alpha of Night Howl, took one look at the wolfless girl fate had chosen for him and said the words that shattered what little was left of her: I reject you. Heartbroken and alone, Ava stopped believing in the moon goddess, in fate, and in the idea that anyone could ever truly want her. She was done with second chances. She was done with hope. Until the Lycan King came. Sebastian Reynolds didn't come to Night Howl looking for a mate. But the moment his eyes found Ava, the bond was undeniable — fierce, consuming, and impossible to ignore. He wasn't asking her to trust a bond she had already watched destroy her. He was asking her to trust him. But Ava has been broken before. And just as she begins to lower her walls, Jackson resurfaces — realising too late what he threw away, and refusing to let another man claim what he now believes is his. Two powerful men. One wounded woman. And a choice that will change the fate of the entire kingdom. Will Ava risk her heart again — or will she let fear decide her future?

Esmeralda Cantari has spent her life being told she is a mistake. The unwanted daughter of a powerful angel prince and a disgraced witch, she was cast aside by her father and barely tolerated by her mother’s coven. When her magic fails to appear like every other young mage’s, the coven finally exiles her for good. But the night they drive her out, something awakens. Blood answers her call. Wings of midnight blue and black tear free from her back. And suddenly the powerless girl everyone despised becomes something far more dangerous. Returning to Rosewood Sanctum for her third year, Esmeralda must hide abilities that could make her a target in a school ruled by powerful bloodlines—including the half-siblings who have bullied her for years. Yet strange things are already happening around the academy. Students are disappearing. Bodies are found drained of blood. And rumors of ancient monsters once thought extinct begin to circulate. The only people who seem to notice Esmeralda’s true potential are the most feared group of heirs at Rosewood: a shadow demon with dangerous curiosity, a brooding shifter whose beast reacts to her presence, a brilliant mage who feels he’s seen her before, a relentless fae warrior who sees her strength, and an angel prince who is watching her far too closely. As the mystery deepens, Esmeralda begins to realize her awakening may not be a coincidence. Something ancient is rising in the shadows of the supernatural world. And it has already started hunting for her.

After three years of gathering herbs, I finally returned to Green-Pouch Valley. But my master, Mr. Gu, was not there. On the ground, only a dark red pool of blood remained, soaking his cloth robes. My senior brothers and sisters, usually so lively, were nowhere to be found. My master's wife, Auntie Qin, sat collapsed beside the pool of blood. Her once-black hair was now mostly white, her voice a hoarse whisper as she called to me. "Shuang'er, your master traded his life for the valley's ascension. You must go to the Nine Heavens and offer your thanks." It was only then I understood. The Celestial Lord, Jun Che, in his quest to forge an immortal body for his mortal wife, had coveted my master's rare Celestial Bones of Healing. He used the promise of ascension for everyone in Green-Pouch Valley as bait, then brutally tore the bones from my master's living body. I was born with a strange affliction, a void where joy and sorrow should be. The others in the valley secretly called me a cold-blooded monster. Now, as I stared at the blood-soaked robes of the man who had saved me and treated me like his own daughter, my expression remained blank. "Auntie Qin, did Master do this willingly?" Auntie Qin's eyes instantly reddened. "Jun Che is the Celestial Lord. His word is heavenly law. How could we ever defy it?" I gave a faint nod. "If it was not what Master wanted, then Jun Che deserves to die." Auntie Qin's face went pale with fright. She lunged forward and clutched my arm. "Shuang'er, your master's last words were for you all to protect yourselves, not throw your lives away fighting an unwinnable war against the heavens." I pried her fingers off one by one and looked up at the glittering, golden Celestial Realm beyond the clouds. A faint smile touched my lips. "Auntie Qin, Master taught me that a healer's heart must be compassionate." "But he never taught me that gods can't be killed."
