Who Was John Steinbeck

Serafine, a seventeen year old human girl, never believed werewolves existed until she was bought by one. Bran Cornick. A ruthless, feared and powerful alpha of the strongest pack in werewolf history. Alpha Bran Cornick hates humans more than he hates rogues, but fate ties him to the one he hates the most. Serafine. Find out how Serafine survives a world where humans are prey, and an alpha who fights fates with fangs and claws.

To save my father-in-law, I donated a kidney—but on the very day I was discharged, she didn't hesitate for a second to shove me into the guest room. "Those centipede-like scars are disgusting. Don't show yourself to me again!" In the dead of night, my wound tore open. I collapsed into a pool of blood, dialing her number 100 times, desperate for help. She hung up every single time. Meanwhile, the master bedroom echoed with Theo Reynold's low, passionate growls. In that instant, every ounce of strength drained from me. When I was admitted to the hospital, I held the military medal my mother had left me on her deathbed. That was when I remembered the woman even the mayor bowed to when she walked into a room. Without thinking, I dialed the long-forgotten number. "Commander Jennings, you once said you owed my mother a debt of gratitude. Now… I want you to marry me."

I died once. My pack slaughtered. My blood spilled beneath the claws of the Alpha who destroyed everything I loved. But death didn’t keep me. The Moon Goddess pulled me back reborn with only one purpose. Vengeance. Now I walk into the heart of Bloodveil Pack, hiding my true identity. He doesn’t recognize me. Not the girl he crushed beneath his rule. Not the omega who swore she’d see him burn. But fate is cruel. The bond ties me to him Cain Blackthorn, the ruthless Alpha, my sworn enemy… and my mate. Every step I take brings me closer to revenge… and deeper into his darkness. Behind his cold strength lies a curse tearing him apart, and only I can soothe it. To save myself, I must destroy him. To save him, I must betray myself. In a world of blood, lies, and the Moon Goddess’s wrath, love is the most dangerous trap of all.

He ruined her past. Fate made him her future. Ayla Rowan ran from the Bloodhowl Pack—and from Cade Thorne, the cruel Alpha-in-training who made her feel like nothing. Years later, she’s built a new life, far from the pack, far from pain… and secretly engaged to a human man who knows nothing of her werewolf blood. But fate doesn’t care about plans. When Ayla is forced to return home, the mate bond snaps into place. Cade—the boy who once shattered her—is now her fated mate. And he wants everything he once rejected. Her forgiveness. Her trust. Her heart. But Ayla already promised herself to someone else. Now, the Alpha who hated her is back—with power, passion, and a vengeance. And he’s ready to fight fate, the pack, and her entire world to make her his. Love was never part of the plan. But neither was destiny.

Sophia Ward never imagined her life would spiral this way. One moment, she’s struggling to keep her family afloat; the next, she’s kidnapped by Adrian Vale—a ruthless criminal who threatens her family’s very existence if she doesn’t obey his orders. His mission? Infiltrate Blackwood Enterprises and manipulate its enigmatic CEO, Desmond Blackwood, into signing a contract that could change everything. Every choice she makes is a gamble. Every lie she tells is a risk. Desmond Blackwood has always lived by control and calculation. Blind yet unyielding, he’s nothing like the whispers that surround him. And when Sophia steps into his world—fragile, terrified, yet stubbornly brave—he senses a storm in her heart he can’t ignore. Then Sophia Ward walked into his life. Fragile, terrified, yet strangely bold. She carried secrets he didn’t yet understand—and a courage that defied her circumstances. Something about her stirred something in him he hadn’t felt in years. Curiosity. Protection. And perhaps, against all reason, something more. With the fact he knows, she is hiding a dangerous secret of her own— He still leans in more for her to trust him because somehow that matters to him. But in a world where trust is a luxury, Desmond would have to decide: Could he risk believing in her, even if it might cost him everything? And Sophia must navigate love, danger, and deception. Can she protect her family without losing herself—or the one person she never thought she’d trust
