Wand Willow

At the Davenport family dinner, I arrive wearing the same dress Tucker Davenport's true love once wore. His face darkens immediately. He glares at me coldly and orders that my dress be burned on the spot. "Damn it, Willow, can't you show a little self-awareness? Shelby might be too naive to notice, but there's no way I'm letting you appear like this in front of her." The intense heat rushes toward me as the flames consume the fabric. A sharp, burning pain shoots between my legs, crashing over me like a tidal wave. The pain drags me under, but I suddenly jolt awake, barely able to gasp a plea for mercy. Tucker doesn't spare me a glance. He simply turns away to help Shelby cut the cake. Days later, he finally remembers I exist. "As long as you behave and don't bother Shelby again, you'll still be Mrs. Davenport." I stare at the burns on my legs as my tears dry up. I refuse to beg any longer. I'm done being Mrs. Davenport.

​"I bought you for three years, Spring. That means for 1,095 days, your body, your soul, and your very breath belong to me." ​To the world, Spring Willow is the luckiest woman alive—married to the legendary billionaire August Harrington. To August, she is nothing but a shadow of the woman he lost, a scapegoat for a tragedy she didn’t cause. ​The terms of their "marriage" are written in blood and cold hard cash: -​$300,000 a month for her grandmother’s life. ​One hundred rules she must never break. And most important ​rules of all: Never expect his heart. ​Spring expected the coldness. She expected the cruelty. But she didn't expect August’s hatred to morph into a suffocating, dangerous obsession that refuses to let her go; even after the contract ends. ​Just as Spring prepares to break under his weight, a new shadow emerges. Another power player, equally ruthless and twice as determined, offers her a way out. ​The contract was signed in pain, but the ending will be written in fire. When revenge turns to possessiveness, who will Spring choose: The man who owns her, or the man who wants to steal her away?

​Zwei Menschen. Ein verbotenes Grab aus Kalk und Pigmenten. Und eine Wahrheit, die tödlich ist. ​Die renommierte Restauratorin Isabella bekommt das Angebot ihres Lebens: In einer abgelegenen, prachtvollen Villa in Italien soll sie ein jahrhundertealtes Fresko freilegen. Doch schon bei ihrer Ankunft spürt sie, dass die Mauern der Villa mehr verbergen als nur alte Kunst. Ihr Auftraggeber, der unterkühlte und machtbesessene Enzo, kontrolliert jeden ihrer Handgriffe über ein Netz aus Kameras. Er ist ein Mann, der keine Fehler duldet und Gefühle als eine tödliche Schwäche betrachtet – eine Lektion, die er blutig lernen musste. ​Während Isabella Schicht für Schicht den alten Gips abträgt, stößt sie auf ein Geheimnis, das niemals das Tageslicht hätte sehen dürfen. Ein Auge starrt sie aus der Wand an – ein Zeuge eines Verbrechens, das Enzo um jeden Preis unter Verschluss halten will. Trotz seiner ausdrücklichen Warnung, nur das Auge freizulegen, treibt Isabellas unbezähmbare Neugier sie weiter. Unter ihrem Spachtel erscheint ein schreiender Mund, und mit ihm die Gewissheit: Dieses Fresko ist kein Kunstwerk, es ist ein Grabstein. ​Als der ehemalige Polizist Paolo Rossini vor den Toren der Villa auftaucht und Isabella vor dem Schicksal ihrer verschwundenen Vorgängerin warnt, muss sie sich entscheiden. Rossini bietet ihr die Flucht an, doch die dunkle Anziehungskraft zwischen ihr und Enzo ist längst zu einer gefährlichen Fessel geworden. ​Enzo merkt, dass er die Kontrolle verliert – über das Geheimnis, über sein Haus und über sich selbst. In der staubigen Stille des Ateliers prallen zwei Welten aufeinander: Isabellas Drang nach der Wahrheit und Enzos Wille, sie im Dunkeln zu lassen. Doch je näher sie sich kommen, desto klarer wird: Wer die Schichten der Vergangenheit freilegt, muss bereit sein, unter ihnen begraben zu werden. ​Die Wahrheit will gesehen werden. Doch manche Blicke überlebt man nicht.

Willow (“Wills”) is a werewolf who was abandoned as a baby by her injured mother and raised by her adoptive father, Conall, the fireman who found her. Unaware of her true nature or the existence of an underground werewolf society, Wills lives a normal life, covering up her monthly shifts with Conall’s help. Her world changes when she meets Zale, the regional alpha, during a work project. Zale recognizes her as a werewolf but is puzzled by her immunity to alpha commands—a rare trait linked to her mysterious bloodline and her mother’s tragic past. As Zale tries to integrate Wills into his pack and uncover her origins, she resists, wary of trust and power dynamics. As their relationship build and her past is revealed with secrets about her lineage, a hidden betrothal, and her villainous biological father, who seeks to exploit her unique powers. Wills’ newly discovered abilities allow her to influence pack bonds and heal or command rogue wolves, making her a target. Amidst attacks, betrayals, and shifting alliances, Wills gradually learns about her heritage, discovering the true nature of the rogue wolf curse, and embracing her role in the werewolf community.

Würdest du freiwillig in deinen eigenen Tod gehen … nur für Rache? Valeska Wenzel hatte sich selbst als Opfer für die Wölfe angeboten – aus genau einem tödlichen Grund: Sie wollte dem Alpha der Nachtlynx die Klinge ins Herz stoßen und ihre verschwundene Zwillingsschwester rächen. Doch in dem Moment, in dem sie Jannis Hermann gegenüberstand, zerfiel ihr Plan. Er hätte sie töten sollen. Stattdessen drückte er sie zu Boden, verschonte sie … und berührte sie, als würde er nach jedem einzelnen Teil von ihr verlangen. Valeska redete sich ein, sie fühle nichts. Doch ihr Puls strafte sie Lügen. Gefangen in feindlichem Gebiet gingen sie ein gefährliches Bündnis ein: Sie würde ihm helfen, einen Verräter aufzuspüren … wenn er ihr im Gegenzug half, ihre Schwester zu finden. Jeder Kampf endete mit seinen Händen an ihrer Taille, ihrem Rücken gegen die Wand gedrängt. Jeder Blick voller Hass verwandelte sich in einen Kuss, dem sie nicht widerstehen konnte. Jeder Herzschlag zog sie näher zu ihm – während die Klinge, die für sein Herz bestimmt war, noch immer verborgen an ihrer Haut lag. Die Hexen wollten seinen Tod. Sein eigenes Rudel begann, sich gegen ihn zu wenden. Und das Monster, das sie hatte töten wollen, war vielleicht der einzige Mann, der sie jemals wirklich gesehen hatte. Als Annika schließlich auftauchte – bewaffnet mit einem Geheimnis, das alles zerstören konnte … wie tötet man den Wolf, in den man sich verliebt, wenn jeder Schlag des eigenen Herzens schreit, dass man lieber selbst sterben würde, als ihn zu verlieren?
