The Ruins Sinopsis

Alex is the next Alpha of Snow Mountain, but at thirty years old, he remains mateless. His parents advised him to wait as having your fated mate is more ideal. On his thirtieth birthday, a series of mysterious things began. Silver wolves appeared in their territory. They haven’t been seen in almost a century. A woman speaks to him through one of the wolves. She claims to be his mate and she needs him to rescue her. She spoke of mysterious things and she seemed to know about him and his family. He remained doubtful and his father warned him to be careful when he decided to go and check it out. At the ruins of a palace which used to be the territory of the last werewolf king, Alpha of the alphas, they found a beautiful woman. She was enchanting but he resisted. Luna finds his disbelief infuriating. She introduced herself as a descendant of the moon goddess and her knowledge of werewolves are innate to her. She knows of the past and of the future, of mysteries buried and forgotten. She couldn’t disclose everything at once, though. She has her limits. Her powers and abilities haven’t reached their full potential yet. She needs her mate as his mate needs her. He wasn’t pleased when she told him he won’t be Alpha of Snow Mountain, but became bewildered when she revealed he was meant to be the newest werewolf king, Alpha of all alphas. ******* Each book in the Snow Mountain Pack Series can be read as a stand-alone.

Sinopsis Dentuman keras mengguncang jalanan. Jeritan manusia, suara klakson yang memekakkan telinga, dan bau logam terbakar bercampur dalam kekacauan yang mengerikan. Amira tersentak sadar, kepalanya berdenyut hebat, darah hangat mengalir dari pelipisnya. Namun, itu semua tidak ada artinya. Yang lebih penting—yang lebih menyesakkan—adalah tubuh mungil di sampingnya. "Amanda... Sayang... bangun..." Suara Amira bergetar, tangannya gemetar saat menyentuh wajah pucat putrinya. Ada darah di dahinya, napasnya lemah, terlalu lemah. Dengan panik, Amira merogoh ponselnya, menekan nomor suaminya. Nada sambung. Satu kali. Dua kali. Tidak diangkat. "Reza, angkat! Tolong!" Tangisnya pecah, putus asa. Lalu, sirene ambulans terdengar. Harapan menyala di dadanya saat ia melihat seseorang berlari ke arah tim medis. "Reza..." bisiknya, nyaris tak percaya. Tapi langkah suaminya bukan menuju dirinya. Mata Amira mengikuti langkah tergesa-gesa itu. Di seberang sana, seorang wanita terbaring di atas tandu, wajahnya pucat. Di sampingnya, seorang anak laki-laki juga terluka. "Reza... tolong selamatkan anak kita..." suara wanita itu lirih, namun cukup menusuk telinga Amira. Dunia Amira seakan berhenti. Anak kita? Jantungnya mencelos, perih yang tak tertahankan menjalar ke seluruh tubuhnya. Lalu, kalimat berikutnya menghancurkan sisa-sisa kekuatannya. "Aku harus menyelamatkan mereka," suara Reza penuh kepanikan. Amira ingin berteriak. Ingin memanggil nama suaminya. Ingin memohon. Tapi ambulans itu melaju, membawa Reza pergi. Meninggalkannya. Meninggalkan Amanda. Di saat putrinya berjuang antara hidup dan mati, pria yang seharusnya menjadi pelindung mereka justru memilih wanita lain. Air mata Amira jatuh, bercampur dengan darah yang mengalir di pipinya. Hatinya hancur. Bukan hanya karena pengkhianatan. Tapi karena hari itu, ia menyadari... Nyawa mereka tak lebih penting dibandingkan cinta terlarang suaminya.

The night I caught my boyfriend cheating on me with my best friend shattered me and if he could betray me with my best friend, then I’d betray him in the most brutal way possible, seducing the one man he swore was off-limits. His uncle.Caesar Dominic Calder. Cold. Ruthless. A notorious playboy billionaire who ruined women for sport. Too powerful to resist. Too dangerous to control. A man whispered about scandals, feared in boardrooms, and fantasized about in bedrooms.I thought it would be just a sweet, simple revenge—a filthy, reckless one-night stand to scorch my ex where it hurt most. But when Ceasar discovered I used him, I didn’t get rage. I didn’t get punished. And he didn’t push me either. Instead, he got me pinned against his office wall, his hand wrapped around my throat, his mouth at my ear, growling, “You want revenge, kitten? I’ll give you revenge. But don’t forget—you’re mine now.”Now I’m torn between destroying my ex…and surrendering to the only man who makes me feel alive. The man I should never want. The man who could ruin me as easily as he ruins everyone else. My ex’s uncle.It took me a while to realize this wasn’t about revenge anymore. It’s about him and me, drowning in his darkness, his touch, and his claim. I crave him every second of my life. I should run. I should fight it. But every time he breaks me, I beg for more.And worst of all? I’m falling for him. My ex’s forbidden uncle.

I thought Christmas had already broken me. Betrayal, loss, and a miscarriage that shattered everything I’d built. So I did the only reckless thing a heart in ruins could do: closed my eyes, jabbed a finger at a map, and bought a ticket to wherever it landed. No plan. No hope. Just a wounded heart running from the wreckage. I wanted quiet. Snow. A place to breathe and heal. I found him instead. A man who feels too wild for this world, all heat and muscle and dark, hungry eyes. He kisses like he’s claiming something. Touches like he’s learning every secret my body holds. His strength borders on impossible. His presence, addictive. He calls me his naughty little Christmas gift. And every time he drags his mouth down my throat, I forget every reason I had to stay guarded. But the deeper I fall, the stranger things become. The room around him feels alive. The night listens when he speaks. His eyes flash with an animal glow that shouldn’t exist, and the sound he makes when he’s holding back, low, guttural, trembling the air between us doesn’t belong to any man. I should run. Ask questions. Save myself. But I’m far too gone. Even willing to be ruined by whatever he is. So I ignore the question whether I’m losing my mind, or whether the fear curling beneath the heat is real. And let him keep unwrapping me like the gift he thinks I am. Because whatever lives inside him…it’s the first thing that’s made me feel alive again.

"You f*cking recorded me Drego?!" I stood naked, my hands shivering as I stared at the little camera in my hands, still beeping. I couldn’t believe my eyes.

He was still looking at me when he swiped his tongue over his lips, licking my juices slowly as if it was the sweetest dessert and it took all my self-restraint not to pull his head back. “Do you make sounds like that for him too?” he asked haughtily, his fingers in me as he played me like a toy while watching me intently, and even though I hated it, I couldn't stop the moans from escaping from my lips. ******* When Alpha Arnold, the most powerful Alpha in the whole of Silvercrest hears of the untamed beauty of a coming-of-age girl in his territory, he's quick to swoop in and claim her as his and take her into Crescent Valley.
