The Beast By Samreen Shah

Aria has never known love—not from her cold family, nor from the pack that shuns her. When the Moon Goddess reveals her mate to be the Alpha’s son, Aria’s heart swells with hope. But her joy is short-lived when he cruelly rejects her in front of everyone, shattering her fragile dreams. That same night, chaos descends upon the pack as Alpha Ronan, the ruthless Rogue King launches a brutal attack. In the midst of the bloodshed, he claims Aria as his mate, marking her and dragging her away to his pack. Torn between fear and an unshakable bond, Aria is thrust into a world of danger and secrets. As she glimpses the man beneath the Alpha Ronan’s icy exterior, she begins to wonder: can she melt his heart of stone, or will falling for him lead to her ultimate ruin? In a tale of betrayal, passion, and redemption, Aria must decide if love is worth risking everything—even her soul.

"You have this beauty that captivates men, don’t you? There were plenty of naked women in this room, but the second you walked in, the men lost control. They wanted a piece of you. They wanted to own you." His fingers trail down my jaw, tilting my chin up. "Not knowing you already belong to me." I swallow hard, my breath caught in my throat. He moves away, settling into a chair with ease. He unbuttons his coat, leans back, spreads his legs apart like a king, which I guess he is... And then, his voice turns lethal. "From now on, Ariella Costa, you are mine to use. Mine to play with. Mine to do with as I please." The words hit me like a heart attack. "Your body belongs to me. Your mind belongs to me. Your soul belongs to me." He smirks, his dark eyes locking onto mine. "I own you."

I was supposed to be his mate. His Luna. The woman he vowed to cherish. But under the silver glow of the full moon, **Alpha Cassian Blackwood rejected me.** In front of the entire pack, he shattered our bond like I was nothing. No explanation. No hesitation. Just a cold, brutal rejection that sent searing pain through my soul. I ran. What else could I do? But fate wasn’t done with me. Captured by rogues, I thought my life was over—until **Ronan Vale, their dangerously handsome Alpha, offered me a deal.** A contract marriage. Protection in exchange for my loyalty. A union that would make me untouchable. I should have refused. Instead, I let myself fall into the arms of a man who sees me not as weak, but as powerful. And he’s not the only one. **Kai, the brooding strategist with haunted eyes, and Luca, the charming beta with a deadly smile, both make it clear—Cassian may have rejected me, but I will never be unwanted again.** But now Cassian wants me back. **And he’s willing to start a war to claim me.** I should hate him. I should want revenge. But when I look into his stormy silver eyes, I feel the bond still there, fraying but unbroken. Now, the men around me are asking me to choose. **My past, or my future. My fate, or my freedom.** But no one has realized the truth yet. *I’m not the weak, rejected mate they thought I was.* And I will never be powerless again.

"Do anyone have reasons why this couples shouldn't get married?" The priest had asked. The bride found the question not necessary because she was sure there was no one against their union, but surprisingly to her, three masked men harmed to the teeth stepped into the church and their presence alone sent shivers down the spines of everyone. "We are against this union." One of them said grumpily. "Who-who are you... And why-why are you against this union?" The priest managed to ask. "Because our boss can't stand his lady getting married to someone else" His reply left everyone dumfounded. ***** After moving out of the orphanage with her friends, Rebecca decided to start afresh and forget everything about her dark past, including everyone associated with it.

It was a perilous time when the fittest survived. Alphas were usurped and Packs were overthrown by the powerful. Vera was thrown into a conspiracy when her father, the beta of the Shifters Pack, was accused of treason. Her parents were killed and she was labelled a traitor's daughter. Everyone turned their backs against her. Her mate, the Alpha heir, rejected her and she was banished from the pack. Resolute to prove her parents' innocence, she escaped from her killers only to fall into the hands of a ruthless Alpha, Alpha Joash. She soon realized that he was her second chance mate but he was oblivious to it. In her state, she couldn't voice it out. Still at his mercy, she realized that all that she had believed were lies. She needed to save herself, prove herself and unknot her twisted fate.

Their fated connection shouldn't exist, but the prophecy says otherwise. Thrown into a dangerous spiral of secrets, betrayals, and forbidden power, Selene and Ronan must confront enemies lurking within and beyond their packs. As prophecies awaken and war brews, love may be their greatest strength—or their undoing. Can two broken souls defy destiny, or will the darkness consume them before they embrace the light?
