“You were never just a secret. You were everything I couldn’t admit.” She was his secret.

Allyson just needs more money to pay off her father's debts and his diabetes medication. She gets a job as an exotic dancer at the Venus nightclub while working in a law office and going to college. It's a lot for a girl of only twenty-six, but she has a dream. To be a lawyer and defend the innocent. In her office, her boss and CEO Peter Fletcher is her role model. He is a wealthy and successful lawyer who inspires her life and makes her sigh. What Allyson doesn't know is that Peter is watching her in silence and for a very special reason: He wants to turn her into a werewolf like him and be faithful to her until the end of time. One night, he decides to give himself a present: A night of fun, after all the hard work, and suddenly he sees his beautiful employee, the one he wants so much, coming in from the side of the Venus nightclub. Peter is curious to know what she's doing there. He thinks she might be making drinks or mopping the floor, but to his surprise, Allyson is the most beautiful dancer in the club. Peter orders her to be promoted to his personal assistant in the office, without her knowing that he saw her behind the glass in the complete darkness of the nightclub. One night on her way home, Allyson is silently escorted by her wolf during the full moon. But they don't realize that she's going to be mugged and, in the midst of the alpha's fury, seeing his chosen one in danger, he transforms and injures the man, biting Allyson unintentionally. From then on, Allyson's adventure through an unknown and dangerous world begins, leading her into the arms of her alpha.

"How can I marry a man I do not know?" "You can't possibly do this." "Your father is the one who decides what can possibly happen." "Why do I have to marry him?" "Your father wants to do business with him, and it is so much that it would take us from top twenty to top ten." Nirelle’s fate is sealed. After a life of endless scrubbing, suffering, and silence, her father decides her worth lies in securing a business deal. A deal so massive, it promises to thrust their family into elite status—at the cost of her freedom. Married off to a man cloaked in more secrets than the night sky, Nirelle wants to run. But there's nowhere to go. With every ounce of strength she has left, she chooses to shift prisons—from her father’s oppressive home to her new husband’s mansion. Lucien Vexley is nothing like she expected. The name alone strikes fear on the streets, the rumours painting him as a shadowy, ruthless enigma. Yet the man sitting across from her at the dining table, caring for her in ways she’s never known, is nothing like the beast they described. Lucien is a mystery she can’t seem to solve. "You are handsome?" "It seems you were expecting me to be a beast?" "Well, according to the rumours," "Am I not here as a scapegoat for something?" Nirelle doesn’t understand the warmth beginning to stir in her chest, the way her stomach flutters when he's near. But something is changing. Something deep. Something dangerous. She’s not just learning how to survive anymore— She’s learning how to become her.

“I don’t negotiate, I take. But just this once… name it.” Ryker’s voice was low, commanding. “Whatever you want, it’s yours.” Serena’s heart pounded. He had taken everything from her, her freedom, her choices, her life. And now, he was acting like he could grant her a wish? “Huh?” “Yes, speak your desire and I will make it a command.” “Anything?” He nodded, his grip firm around her waist, his golden eyes locked on her. “Then I want your life. I want you dead!” Silence filled the room. Serena braced herself for his anger. But instead, Ryker smiled. “Alright.” Before she could react, he turned and said, “Bring me a knife.” The blade was cold in her hands, her fingers shaking as she clutched it. This was her chance, her revenge. The moment she had dreamed of. She didn’t hesitate. The knife plunged into his chest. His body fell. His blood spilled. And yet, moments later… he was standing right in front of her. Serena’s breath caught in her throat. She looked down, his lifeless body was still on the floor. But he… he was alive. Watching her. Smirking. “You got what you wanted,” he said. “Now, it’s my turn.” She had tried to kill the monster who killed her father right in front of her. But monsters don’t die so easily. And now, she was his. “Welcome to my world.”

“I've sacrificed so much for our sake, to get this duplicitous act from my husband and my foster sister!” My heart clenched at the sight of their naked bodies.  I lacked words to say, My heart felt crushed under the weight of their sinful act! I was about to give Liam the most exciting news of our lives on our third wedding anniversary. The insemination procedure was a success, and I was pregnant with his child.  That day turned out to be the opposite of what I expected it to be. I ended up being humiliated in the presence of my foster sister, I was asked to sign the divorce papers, and was also sent out of my matrimonial home that same day.  **** “Mrs Sophia, there was a big complication from the final procedure we carried out on you.  “What's wrong? I managed to say, without minding the tension coming from his voice. After a few minutes of silence…  “A mistake occurred during the insemination procedure, leading to the incorrect sperm being used and….” he took a deep breath. "You're carrying the child of the CEO Williams Corporation.” My eyes widened in shock. “Whatttt!! This was just the beginning of my twist of fate with the ‘Cold and Callous Billionaire’....  Ethan Williams. 

“Nyx Sullivan, what is your real reason for being here?” Ronan crossed his arms, his eyes slowly scrutinizing the woman in front of him. A slow smirk spread my lips and I shrugged. “I came to collect what he owes” Silence as he waited for me to explain what I meant. “A life” Selene Arden now known as Nyx Sullivan is put into the most difficult arc of her life as she discovers her husband's infidelity and a betrayal from her best friend. Left to die by the people she trusted, Selene thinks it's over for her but the moon goddess brings a new choice. A new life to take back what was rightfully hers. But this time, they need her help and an unlikely ally appears. Will she succeed in taking back her pack and taking back her role as the Luna or will her supposed alliance with her enemy bring more obstacles than expected?

There’s one rule in the Alpha’s house: do not touch the traitor’s daughter. Vanessa was supposed to die the night Alpha Alec took her father’s throne. Instead, loyal servants smuggled her into the palace under a false name, raising her in silence, training her for one purpose: kill the Alpha heir before he discovers who she is. But fate has its own plans. When Alec returns from war to claim his title, he barely notices the quiet maid scrubbing his floors—until the mate bond snaps into place. The pull is instant. Violent. Dangerous. Now Vanessa is torn between the revenge she was born for and the mate she never asked for. Alec swore never to be ruled by a woman again, especially not one with enemy blood. But her scent is wildfire, and the bond is unraveling his control. Choosing her could cost him his crown. Killing her might destroy his soul.

Eighteen-year-old Zenith Valencia has always lived life with one foot in the shadows. A quiet soul with a paintbrush and a guarded heart, she finds comfort in sunsets, solitude, and the safety of emotional distance, until a chance encounter at the town’s old observatory changes everything. One moment, she's sketching the horizon. The next, she's being swept into the arms of a mysterious stranger, one whose very presence radiates danger, mystery, and something far more primal. He calls her mate. Alejandro Wolfgang isn’t just a werewolf, he’s a walking contradiction. Born of two worlds, rejected by his alpha father, and forced into silence by years of brutal abuse, Alejandro teeters on the edge of losing his humanity. For three long years, his wolf has kept him from falling into the abyss, but it’s Zenith, his fated mate, who finally pulls him back from the brink. To Zenith, Alejandro is odd, soft-spoken, maybe even autistic. But beneath the quiet eyes and childlike innocence lies a fierce, wounded soul with a secret that could upend both their lives. A glowing sapphire bracelet, a mother’s buried shame, and a night long forgotten hold the key to Alejandro’s true identity, and his dangerous potential. As Alejandro finds peace in Zenith’s presence, something ancient stirs within him. And as their bond deepens, so does the danger. Because Alejandro’s enemies aren’t just from his past…they’re hunting his future. In a world where wolves reign in secret and humans are forbidden, Zenith is more than just Alejandro’s mate, she may be the antidote to a curse older than either of them can imagine. His curse was eternal. Her touch was the cure.

I’m the last of a cursed bloodline. He’s the Alpha who lost everything because of mine. Matteo Cruz Valentino “El Lobo”—feared biker, mafia leader, Alpha without mercy—was never meant to be my mate. But the moon doesn’t care about grudges, and fate has no compassion. Now I’m trapped in his world. His rules. His war. He won’t love me. He won’t even look at me without hate in his eyes. But behind that hate is something raw… something breaking. He caged me in his world of darkness and violence… yet kisses me like I’m the only thing that’s ever made him feel real. And I’m not sure which will kill me first—his silence, or his touch.
