Devon Albert, the outcast omega of Redstone Pack, once believed that finding his fated mate meant forever. But when his mate, the proud Beta, rejected him for being “a useless male who can’t bear pups,” Devon’s world shattered. Branded weak, beaten, and humiliated, he was cast out into the wilderness to die. He didn’t. He survived. He became a rogue. One stormy night, while hiding in the forest that marked the border between packs, Devon stumbled upon a brutal ambush, and a terrified five-year-old boy at its center. Acting on instinct, he threw himself between the assassins and the child, nearly losing his life in the process. When rescue finally came, Devon awoke in the luxurious but dangerous territory of Ravenmoon Pack, the most powerful pack across the border. The boy he saved? The heir to the Alpha’s throne. To repay his bravery, the Alpha offered him a position, as the heir’s nanny. Devon never expected to stay. But fate had other plans. The Alpha of Ravenmoon, Lucien Hale, was everything Devon feared, cold, domineering, and impossibly magnetic. Their worlds should have clashed. Until one fateful night, an accidental kiss stirred a dormant bond neither could explain… nor resist. As passion brews behind closed doors and danger lurks from both packs, Devon finds himself trapped between desire and survival, torn between a contract of duty and a love that could destroy them both. What happens when a broken omega becomes the heart of the Alpha’s family… and maybe, his mate?

At Crescent Moon University, hierarchy is everything. Alphas rule. Omegas serve. And Isla Monroe—the scholarship student with scars on her wrists and silence in her eyes—knows exactly where she stands. When the mate bond snaps into place during the Fall Equinox Ball, linking her to Daemon Blackthorn, the Alpha heir every she-wolf dreams of claiming, Isla thinks fate has finally given her something beautiful. Until he looks at her with disgust and says the words that shatter her: "I, Daemon Blackthorn, reject you as my mate." Humiliated before the entire campus, Isla does what she's always done—survives. She buries the bond's pain, throws herself into her studies, and tries to become invisible again. But Daemon can't stop watching her. Can't stop noticing how she never breaks, how her intelligence outshines his elite classmates, how the "weak Omega" has a spine of steel. When Isla's true identity is revealed—the lost Silvermoon Alpha heir, hidden for her protection after her pack's massacre—everything changes. Suddenly, she's not the broken scholarship student. She's the most powerful unmated she-wolf in the territory, and Daemon's rejection looks like the biggest mistake of his life. Now he'll do anything to win her back. But Isla has spent months rebuilding herself without him, and she's discovered something crucial: she doesn't need a mate to be whole. Daemon will have to prove he wants the real her—scars, strength, and all—not just the powerful Alpha everyone else sees.

Aria Nightshade, 26, has been the perfect Luna of the Silvermoon Pack for five years. She wasn't Alpha Damien Blackwood's fated mate—but he *chose* her. He promised her forever, swore their bond was stronger than fate itself, and she believed him. She gave him everything: her heart, her devotion, and her identity, transforming from a quiet omega into a beloved Luna who fought for every pack member as if they were family. Then Damien returns from a diplomatic mission with *her*—Selene Moonshadow, his true fated mate. Beautiful, powerful, and radiating the kind of primal magic that makes wolves bow. Damien insists nothing will change. "You're my Luna, Aria. She's just... fate. We can make this work." But everything changes. Selene moves into the packhouse. Damien starts missing dinners, forgetting anniversaries, vanishing for "pack business" that smells like jasmine and lies. The pack warriors who once protected Aria now sneer. The women who called her sister whisper "false Luna" behind her back. Even Damien's younger brother Marcus, who swore lifelong friendship, turns cold. Then comes the trap. Accused of poisoning Selene (who dramatically "almost dies"), Aria is dragged before the pack council. Evidence appears from nowhere—wolfsbane in her chambers, witnesses who suddenly remember her "threats." Damien, torn between his chosen mate and his fated bond, doesn't defend her. He stays *silent*. Aria is stripped of her Luna title, publicly rejected, and exiled into the Shadowlands—a cursed territory where rogues hunt and magic dies. They expect her to perish within days. They have no idea what she really is. Because Aria Nightshade isn't just an omega. She's the last daughter of the Ashenclaw bloodline—ancient wolf warriors who could command fire and shift into wolves with phoenix flames in their veins. Her mother hid her, suppressed her powers with binding spells, and died protecting the secret. The Ashenclaw were hunted to extinction by the Wolf Council centuries ago because they were *too powerful*, a threat to the ruling packs. In the Shadowlands, dying and betrayed, Aria's bindings shatter. And she *burns*. When she rises from the ashes, she's no longer the gentle Luna who baked cookies for pup birthdays. She's a weapon. And she's going to make them all pay. But revenge gets complicated when she encounters Caden Stormfang—the exiled Alpha of the rival Bloodmoon Pack, dangerous and scarred, ruling the Shadowlands' rogues with an iron fist. He's everything Damien isn't: brutal, honest, and he sees *her*, not the Luna mask she wore. "You want revenge, little phoenix?" Caden's silver eyes gleam. "I'll teach you how to burn kingdoms. But it'll cost you." "Name your price." "Become my Luna. A real one. Help me reclaim my pack, and I'll help you destroy yours." As Aria trains her forbidden powers and builds an army of rogues and exiles, Damien begins to realize what he's lost. Selene's mask slips, revealing a schemer working with the Wolf Council to eliminate powerful bloodlines—including Damien's. The poisoning was a setup orchestrated by Selene and Marcus (who wants the Alpha position). Too late, Damien sees the truth: his fated mate is his destruction. His chosen mate was his salvation. Now he'll do anything to win Aria back. But she's no longer the woman who loved him. She's the Phoenix Luna. And she's done begging for scraps of affection. When Aria returns to Silvermoon with Caden and an army at her back, Damien falls to his knees. "I'm sorry. Come home. I'll reject Selene. I'll make this right. *Please*." Aria looks at the man she once loved, then at Caden—the one who rebuilt her from ashes. "You had your chance, Damien. You chose silence when I needed your roar. Now watch me burn everything you love. Starting with your crown." Because sometimes the greatest revenge isn't destroying your enemies. It's becoming so powerful they can't touch you—and making them watch as you choose someone else.

At the end of third year, Harry Potter is bitten by Remus Lupin—but the Basilisk venom and Phoenix tears in his blood twist the curse, transforming him into a rare Dracolycan. Fleeing Britain with Sirius, who blood-adopts him as Hercules Black, he finds refuge in America—where Nevermore Academy, and a certain Wednesday Addams, await to change his fate forever.

{MATURE — The female lead, Elara, is a plus-size lady. This isn't a book about her losing weight or going on a weight-loss journey. This is a book where she embraces her size and loves herself after everything.} BILLIONAIRE/WEREWOLF I was born a maid in the pack, unwanted, unloved, and unseen. They said I was the daughter of a servant and that I should be grateful to even breathe the same air as elites. But what no one knew was that I wasn’t who they thought I was. I was stolen from my destiny, stripped of my name, and buried in a life that was never mine. When I finished school, I was given a job at Blueberries Pack Company. It was already falling apart, but I worked day and night to keep it alive. Still, nothing I did mattered. The Alpha’s precious daughter stole my ideas, my recognition, and even the man I thought I loved. I was used to silence, to being unseen, until he appeared. Darlon. The Alpha King. A name spoken with fear and awe. They said he was old, heartless, and cruel. I didn’t know him, and I never imagined our paths would cross. But when the Alpha and his Luna grew desperate to save their company, they forced me to marry him in their daughter’s place. I walked down that aisle expecting the worst…But what awaited me on the other side was nothing I could have ever imagined. I didn’t know it then, but the man I had married wasn’t a stranger at all… He was my fated mate And through him, I began to uncover the truth about my past, my bloodline, and the power that had been sleeping inside me all along.

"A Rejected Omega, A Dark Alpha Prince and their twisted dangerous fate." Amelie Conley, the eldest daughter of a revered Alpha family, was once expected to carry on her family’s proud legacy. However, when she turned sixteen, she failed to awaken her wolf, which made her earn the scornful title—the Curse of the Conley Family. At eighteen, she found her destined mate and carried his child, believing she had finally been given a chance at happiness. But when she rushed to share the news, she found him in a compromising position with her younger sister, Flora. Betrayal cut deeper than any wound, but the final blow came when he rejected her without hesitation, declaring Flora as his true mate. Shunned and heartbroken, Amelie made the painful decision to leave her pack for the sake of her unborn child. But just as she tried to escape, she was ambushed—hunted down like prey. Desperate to protect herself and the life growing inside her, Amelie fled to save herself and her unborn child, only to collapse into the arms of an enigmatic stranger—Gabriel Sinclair. Gabriel was no ordinary man. He was the Alpha Prince, a name feared across the nation. For twelve long years, he had scoured the lands for his mate, only to find nothing. He had convinced himself that the Moon Goddess despised him, just as his own mother had. But the moment he laid eyes on Amelie, everything changed. "You were marked, weren't you?" His voice dropped, edged with something dangerously close to possession as his gaze met hers, demanding the truth.  The question left Amelie in a dilemma. She didn't wish to tell him the truth. "I am not an ordinary wolf, Amelie. Who the fuck marked you before me?" Gabriel voiced in a possessive yet intimidating tone.  Amelie didn’t know that the man, who saved her was none other than the infamous Dark Tyrant—the Alpha Prince, Gabriel Sinclair, whose intentions were still unknown to her. ~~~~ **The Story is a pure fiction.

Elaine Keane, the brash little wolf of the Ravenhowl Royal Pack, is a twenty-year-old medical prodigy with a very special ability: causing trouble wherever she goes. Worse, she also holds grudges spectacularly well especially against the man who stood her up on their fateful arranged blind date: Alain Lancaster, Alpha of the Nightclaw Pack and her childhood-betrothed fiancé. On that blind date, Alain never showed up simply because he wanted to call off the engagement. Elaine said nothing, but in her heart she carved that humiliation and the man’s name into stone. So when she was suddenly hounded by a credit-recovery agency for a debt of over a hundred thousand USD, Elaine didn’t hesitate. She signed Alain Lancaster’s name right onto the payment authorization form. A perfect counter-strike logical, justified, and… perfectly in line with her terrible habits. But fate had a far sharper hand than Elaine expected. The first time they met face-to-face, Alain came to Elaine’s school to see what kind of “little fiancée” dared act so outrageously. First encounter: Elaine used the reflection on his car window to apply lipstick, completely unaware that the man inside was watching her. Second encounter: they locked eyes onstage and realized they were each other’s mate but Elaine instantly denied it, dodging away so quickly that Alain ended up seeing another girl instead. After that, Alain lied and introduced himself as “Nicolas” to get close to her, because he knew she… absolutely hated him, and had even insulted him to his face. And Elaine? She only saw a stranger calm, mysterious, a little annoying, yet somehow capable of making her heart skip for reasons she couldn’t explain. She had no idea that “Nicolas” was the man she despised most. He knew exactly who she was, and he was waiting to see how she would survive when debt collectors, pack politics, and an ancient engagement all crashed down at once. A brash young wolf, blazing like a mischievous sunbeam. A silent Alpha, perfect like a magnificent frozen citadel, untouchable, immovable. Two people who should have had nothing to do with one another… until Elaine kicked fate clean off its axis. When the ancient betrothal pact between their families is unearthed, and when spiraling debts pull Elaine straight into the power games of the Four Great Tycoons, Alain is forced to make a choice: Keep a safe distance or drag her into his dangerous world, where even Moonveil trembles before his authority. But how can he keep his distance when Elaine’s scent makes the wolf within him, for the first time in his life, want to roar: Mine. A girl who ignites chaos everywhere she sets foot. An Alpha who has always been in control, yet is losing control piece by piece. A perilous bond between light and shadow. Moonveil City was never prepared for the day Elaine arrived. And Alain… even less so.

The universe hated me so much, it tossed me around, then dumped me straight into the arms of my father’s killer. — I thought I understood monsters. I grew up with them. I survived them. I swore I would kill the one who murdered my father and brothers. But when I finally found him, I failed. Dante Corsetti. Alpha. Mafia boss. The man who destroyed my family and dragged me into his house like a living trophy. He broke me apart until I didn’t know where my rage ended and his cruelty began. He said I was nothing. A prisoner. A reminder of everything he’d lost. A punishment for sins I never committed. Yet the longer I stayed, the more the world I thought I knew cracked open. The secrets about my bloodline, lies my father died with and a supernatural truth I should never have discovered. And in the middle of it all, a mate bond tied me to the monster I hated most. The goddess must be laughing because Dante is not the only one drawn to me. There were two others. Knox, who looked at me like I was the first good thing the goddess ever gave him. Reed, who claimed I was destined for him no matter who he had to fight. Three alphas. One impossible bond. And me, trapped between revenge, desire, and a fate dark enough to break every one of us.

Almost playful. “Would you stop pretending that you don't like it when I challenge you?” He rose from his seat slowly until he stood toe to toe with her. “Tell me something, Circe.” She tilted her chin up. “What?” “If I kissed you right now… Would you slap me, stab me, or kiss me back?” Her breath hitched. “That depends.” “On?” “How good the kiss is.” A pause.

After becoming the youngest Top CEO, Claire thought her life was finally perfect… Until her own sister betrayed her, stabbed her, and stole everything. Claire opens her eyes again in a strange Beastworld where humans are long gone and powerful beastmen rule every land. Not only that but she's now in the body of Mira, the well known “unwanted” and "useless" daughter of a small tribe. Weak, ignored, and treated like a burden. To top it off her new body now hides something the entire Beastworld would kill for: A rare scent-blood that can calm and weaken even the most violent feral beasts. Suddenly, the girl who was supposed to be nothing became the most wanted treasure of every beast tribe. But Mira doesn’t care about them. She doesn’t want their crowns, their fights, or their attention. She only wants one thing: To gather her scattered soul fragments and return to her world for revenge. Yet that simple goal becomes complicated when her system drops a bombshell: any intimate or sexual relationship with a beast means she'll never leave this world. How the hell is she supposed to do that when the three strongest Beast Kings have already scented her… and none of them want to let her go. ****** “You’re not running from me, are you?” Mira stiffened as a warm hand wrapped around her slender waist. That voice deep, rough, and annoyingly possessive, could only belong to the Wolf King. Mira inhaled deeply before responding. “No, I’m not! I swear—” “Then prove it.” “…Prove what?” His golden eyes narrowed. “Stay. With me.Tonight. Mate with me.” Mate? MATE?! With him?? Her mind screamed. Why would she mate with him when the number-one rule of her System was “Avoid any romantic or intimate bonds”?! Fuck how was she supposed to escape without offending him? She could feel his hungry eyes roam over her and suddenly she wished the other two beast kings were here. Not because she wanted them (she did NOT want them!) but because at least when all three showed up, they started fighting each other over her instead of cornering her alone. Her thoughts were interrupted when he spoke again. "Can we skip to the good part now? It's time to prove yourself to me" He whispered huskily.
