Silence Like Glass

I was born an omega in a pack that treated me like dirt. When the Moon Goddess tied me to Alpha Ryker, I thought things would change. They did—but not for the better. He used me in secret, rejected me in silence, and paraded another she-wolf as his Luna. I wasn’t his mate. I was his shame. So I ran. Bleeding. Barefoot. Done. I didn’t expect to survive the night, let alone end up in the court of King Maelor Draven—the cold, savage Lycan King known for killing without blinking. He should’ve finished me off. Instead, he gave me a choice: Marry him… or be sent back to die. It was never meant to be love. Just survival. But somewhere between the silence and the storms, between the way he looked at me and the way I stopped flinching—I found something more. Not safety. Not romance. Power. Now I stand by a king. Not as his toy. Not as his mate. But as a woman reborn. And when Ryker comes for me again… he’ll wish he killed me when he had the chance.

During my wedding reception, I make a toast to my wife's true love. He smashes his wine glass in retaliation and snaps, "I lost to you and allowed you to marry Isabel, but you shouldn't have humiliated me in public!" My wife, Isabel Eaton, is furious. She calls me petty and says she's disgusted by men like me, who get jealous over the smallest things. She rips her veil off and runs after her true love. I chase her, wanting to explain myself. However, a car rams into me. Isabel turns to glance at me but doesn't stop as she goes after her true love. I'm taken to the hospital to be rescued. However, my heart dies despite my body recovering. Upon regaining consciousness, I call my father. I've cut off contact with him for the past three years, but it's time to cave. "I'll go ahead with the marriage alliance, Dad."

“Let me make this clear, omega.” The way he said it —omega— like filth. “You were a test. Nothing more." "A test?" My voice broke. Someone please don't wake me up! "I felt something pulling at me. I thought maybe..." Tears blurred my vision. "You asked me to come here. You touched me, you—" "I made a mistake," he cut in coldly. "A dirty, unfortunate mistake." *** Celia Heartwood was the weakest omega, never meant to touch an Alpha’s world. Yet Nikolai Rydor’s wolf wanted only her. But Nikolai refuses to believe the mate bond could ever point to someone like her. A one night with Celia is supposed to silence his wolf… and it almost does. Until she vanishes with his child. Now the Alpha who never cared for an omega will hunt the world for the mate he rejected…

As we kissed, it was like a rush of emotions. Relief, joy, and the happiness of being close again filled me up. Every kiss felt like a fresh start, wiping away the silence and bringing us back together. Then I realized that I was truly his desire. The world around us disappeared as if no one mattered. I could feel the heat of his hands through my shirt, his fingers caressing my skin and sending shivers down my spine. His lips moved down to my neck, leaving a trail of kisses. ************************** Harper was rudely bumped into by an arrogant jerk at the gym, not wanting to own up to his fault, he ordered her out of the gym. Imagine her shock when she finds out that he was no other but Joshua Stevenson, her new boss at the office and they had been arranged to marry. Will she bow to pressure or give Josh a run for his money?

My mate-to-be, Ethan, said he had some urgent work come up right before our planned full moon trip. He bailed. I was missing him like crazy, so I immediately drove for over ten hours to his city. I hadn’t told Ethan I was coming. There I was, flowers in hand, standing outside his mansion, ready to give my destined mate a sweet surprise. But then I caught the mixed scent of Ethan and another female werewolf. The scent was sickeningly familiar. Amber Collins. Ethan’s ex-mate. I fought back the burn in my nose, my eyes already red, and pushed the door open. And what did I see? Them, sharing a glass of red wine, cuddled up, practically on top of each other. When Ethan finally noticed me, he jerked his arm away from Amber, walked stiffly over, his voice laced with panic. "Scarlett, why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Addiction is like not having control of your desire for something. Luca Perez, a 29-year-old man is mature enough not to be lured by a temptation. Yet he loses control whenever she's close. Angela Colt is forbidden for the likes of him. She is off-limits. She is his best friend's sister, ten years younger than him. Luca couldn't go through the same pain again, but his addiction was slowly morphing into something more feral and darker which he had never felt before. * Life can be cruel sometimes; you have to find a way to weave through hell and stand strong. Angela is the youngest daughter of the Colt family. A 19-year-old, adrenaline junkie and an adventure lover. Everything was going super fine until she realized her feelings for a certain someone. The person she should never feel for or even think about. Luca Perez. 'You can never fix the broken glass because, in the end, you'll bleed.' But little did she know she could resist everything except temptation.

I accidentally break the glass that my husband's true love gave to him. As punishment, he sends me to a place where the upper crust groom their playthings. He wants me to go there as an apology to his true love. I suffer inhumane treatment there. Later, I manage to escape and am brought to the hospital. That's where I find out I'm pregnant.

as soon as I stepped out of the villa, it felt like I’d walked straight into a nightmare. Hector, the man I’d missed so much, was surrounded by soldiers, passionately kissing some woman I’d never seen before. The cheers and whistles around them felt like knives stabbing into my heart. I froze, my happiness turning into icy disappointment and rage. I forced myself to walk closer, even though every step felt like I was wading through quicksand. As more people noticed me, the noise died down, like someone had hit the mute button. Hector and his mystery woman were still in their own world until they finally sensed the eerie silence and pulled apart. When Hector’s eyes met mine, panic flashed across his face, but he quickly masked it. Holding the woman’s hand, he approached me. “Elena, this is Vanessa, she’s—” Before he could finish, Vanessa flashed a confident smile and offered her hand to me. “Hi, I’m Vanessa, Hector’s partner. We fell in love on the battlefield.”

Ashlyn hasn't spoken a word since the age of eight, and her heart's never felt more protected. But, when the confident and ever so charming Derek stumbles into her quiet little world, her emotions-and forbidden desires-have never been so loud. For twenty years, silence is all Ashlyn Holland has known. Haunted by the memories of her father, and the harrowing song of the ocean that stole him from her, Ashlyn maintains a safe distance from the rest of the world. Treading carefully the sea of fear and anguish that surrounds her, Ashlyn is determined to do all she can to protect her heart from such a tragic loss striking again. In silence, she grieves. In silence, she is safe. In silence, she finds the strength to breathe. But the silence can only last so long... Derek Moreno is charming and devoted, and quick to see through every wall Ashlyn erects. With his arrival in town, defences fold and walls begin to crumble, the songs of her heart reaching new heights. Together, they crest twin tides of fate, the silence she'd once sought engulfed by his gentle touch, and the whispers of a love thought impossible. For the summer, Ashlyn welcomes the noise. The disruption. But, the ghosts of Derek's past will no longer remain silent, and their deafening power has the potential to drag them both into a current strong enough to drown them amidst their heartache.
