What Is A Dark Age

"I won't let them hurt you," Jade vowed, staring intently into Kalista's tearful eyes. "I will protect you with my life, even if I have to choose you over my own pack" Kalista felt her heart flutter at his words. She tried to smile as he wiped her tears. "You would do that for me?" she whispered. "I will do whatever it takes to protect you," Jade replied and gently kissed her. ... Kalista, leading a quiet life in the human world changes her fate when she discovers a mysterious gem in the forest. This discovery unveils her true identity as a halfblood; a forbidden creature that isn't meant to exist; half-human, half-werewolf, mated to Jade, the Alpha Prince. Alpha Jade, the most powerful and strongest lycan ever, lost his parents to his evil uncle and now, avenging their death is the only thing he can think of. On his quest to find the Soul Gem that was stolen, he finds his mate, a halfblood who possesses part of the powers of the gem. She becomes his obsession and he was prepared to destroy the entire realm to keep her safe. As both humans and werewolves pose a threat to her due to the gem's powers she possesses, and her forbidden existence, Kalista has no one to rely on for protection except her mate. But when trials and conspiracies arise against them, with Jade's evil uncle threatening to destroy the entire world with the Soul Gem he stole, only one thing can save them both, and the world. The sacrifice of a halfblood. Will Jade stand back and watch his mate give her life to save the world?

I was sent to trap him. To make him fall for me. To lure him in and bring him to his knees. But Alpha Dorian Lysander is not the monster I expected. He’s worse. Dark, commanding, and impossible to deceive. I thought I had him wrapped around my finger. But somewhere between the lies and the longing. Somewhere between the forbidden passion... I realized I was the one caught. Now I’m tangled in his world, under his control, and losing the one thing I swore I’d protect, My heart. He was my mission. Now he’s my master. And the only way out… is through him. She thought she was hunting the beast. She didn’t know she was his prey.

Three souls. One bond. No way out. When Alpha wolf Rhett Calder arrives at the Moon Summit to broker peace between warring packs, the last thing he expects is to be hit with the mating bond. Twice. He’s fated to Mira Ellan, a sharp-tongued enforcer with a painful past and zero interest in destiny. But the bond doesn’t stop there—it also pulses between Rhett and a complete stranger: Jace Rowan, a quiet Beta with haunted eyes and a loyalty that runs deep. Neither man has ever desired another male, yet their souls burn for each other with the same pull they feel for Mira. Confused, drawn, and dangerously tempted, the three are forced together by fate—and hunted by those who see their triad as a threat to tradition. As the mating bond tightens and ancient power awakens, passion turns into loyalty, and strangers into something much more. But when secrets surface and betrayal lurks in the shadows, love alone may not be enough to protect them. Because the most dangerous thing in the world… is a bond the old world refuses to accept.

Umiling si Charlotte. "Dad please... ayokong magpakasal." "That's the right thing to do, Charlotte. After one week, ang kasal niyong dalawa ay magaganap, whether you like it or not," matigas na pagkaka-saad ni Christian. "But kuya..." "That's our final decision, but if you want. Choose between marrying Elijah or file a case for what he does to you." Iyon nga ba ang solusyon, ang ikasal para sa ginawang kasalanan ni Elijah? Paano naman kung may nabuo? Magiging tunay na nga ba ang pilit na kasal, o meron pang mga tao na mas lalong sisirain ang lahat para hindi iyon matuloy?

In the heart of New York City, where power is traded like gold and ambition can break you, Lily James is caught between two worlds. By day, she’s the epitome of grace, a picture-perfect heiress to the sprawling James family airline empire, bound by a legacy that stifles her every move. By night, under the cover of darkness, she sheds her delicate persona, becoming a fierce and untamed spirit—a woman who longs to break free from the chains of her family’s expectations. Her carefully curated life shatters when she is thrust into an arranged marriage with Vandaulf Claude Carlston, the cold, calculating CEO of Carlston Architectural Firm and ruthless heir to the rival Carlston real estate dynasty. To him, their union is nothing more than a business transaction, a means to strengthen their family empires. He dismisses Lily as fragile and unworthy of respect. But Lily isn't the meek woman he believes her to be—beneath her exterior burns an undeniable fire. At a Halloween party, fate intervenes. Lily, shedding her refined persona for the night, crosses paths with Vandaulf in the form of a bold, liberated woman he cannot resist. Neither knows the true identity of the other, and a night of passionate recklessness ensues. The consequences are shattering—Lily is pregnant. When she reveals the truth, Vandaulf’s response is cruel and devastating. He denies any involvement, accusing her of manipulation and deceit. His cold rejection cuts deeper than she could have imagined, leaving her shattered but resolute. In this world of power, deceit, and dangerous alliances, Lily and Vandaulf must decide: will they allow their differences to tear them apart, or risk everything to uncover the truth? The ultimate question remains: will Vandaulf ever acknowledge Lily's pregnancy as his own, or will their fragile truce crumble forever?
