Why'd I have to be born the oldest? ​Nazma stared blankly at her wardrobe, all alone on a bed that felt way too cold for someone her age. While other girls her age were stressing about homework and first crushes, Nazma had to carry a weight much heavier: the survival of her family and the silence of her own heart. ​“God… if I get born again, can I please be the second kid?” ​She desperately wanted to know what it felt like to have a big brother. Someone to stand out front, not behind. Someone to protect her. Someone to lead the way—so she wouldn't have to be strong all by herself every single day. ​But in the real world, she is the firstborn. The one who must lead. The one who must endure. And when she finally finds the courage to speak up against the world's unfairness, she realizes the harshest truth of all: ​It is a story of a girl's voice in a world that refuses to listen. ​Between the dusty halls of village meetings and the secret screams on her digital screen, Nazma navigates the messy layers of angst, broken friendships, and the suffocating social order. She is tired of being "the strong one." She is ready to be heard—even if she has to disappear from the circulation of their "normal" world to do it.

Ella and Jacob are soulmates in the most painful way possible. The kind that feels inevitable, undeniable, and still completely impossible. They were always meant to find each other, but one devastating misunderstanding tears them apart and refuses to let go. Once inseparable, they are now divided by secrets, silence, and a truth no one is brave enough to say out loud. Standing between them is Walter, Ella’s fiercely protective brother. He loves her, but that love has twisted into resentment after one brutal, blood-stained night destroyed their family forever. Walter blames Ella for a past he cannot forgive, and he is determined to keep Jacob as far away from her as possible—no matter what it costs. Then there’s Rachel. She wants Jacob, not just to love him, but to have him. And she is willing to lie, manipulate, and ruin lives to make that happen. By her side is Tina—Walter’s girlfriend and Rachel’s closest ally—who doesn’t see Ella as family at all, only as a problem that needs to be erased. Together, they make sure the truth stays buried and the distance between Ella and Jacob only grows.

Daphne Roasis is a modern day woman who travels back in time and wakes up inhabiting the body of a woman living in the middle ages. A noble born woman by the name of Lady Mariam of House Erayer. She's just gotten married is about to betray her new husband to please her secret lover who plans to kill her and her new husband once he's secured the man's station and fortune. Lady Mary is cruel, vain, selfish, stupid and gullible. She fully deserves her bloody end. But now Daphne is wearing her face. And her head is filled with memories as well as visions of the bloodbath that awaits them should the coup not be halted. Recognizing her circumstances and further struggling to understand them, Daphne realizes she was brought here to stop Lady Mary from committing an act of betrayal that would devastate the lives of hundreds of citizens. Her own people as she is now the wife of a Lord. At first, Daphne just wants to return home. Her circumstances are dangerous and she doesn't wish to bear this burden. She is in a foreign land, surrounded by people she does not know, a culture she doesn't understand, problems she did not create and in the body of a stranger. Each interaction with Mary's husband proves that he is a man of honor and would make for a very good partner for any woman lucky enough to bag him. She couldn't understand how Mary wasn't able to see his value and chose to hurt such a good man. Plus, he was insanely attractive. Daphne knows that Mary has already left a bad impression on her new husband with her rotten attitude and as such, he is not fond of her. Nor are any of the servants and knights. She decides the only way to create harmony and go about disrupting the coup is to come clean to the husband about who she is. Sir James Hamstead is completely baffled by his wife's sudden change in attitude. He doesn't know if she's trying to make amends for her mistakes or just playing games with him. He notices she's become much kinder towards his servants and no longer just yells at them. When she finally reveals her true identity, he's tempted to laugh it off as a bad joke. But she is adamant. She also reveals the coup that is about to unfold and the key players involved stating that Mary was one of them. She tells him of what will happen to his people should he fail to stop the takeover. Sir James is even more baffled, but now with a level of hostility. He doesn't believe Daphne's claims about her identity, but he does believe that she was indeed sent to be his weakness and destroy him. In a fit of rage, he has her thrown in the dungeons as he investigates her claims. The pair get off to a bad start, but Daphne knows she must be patient and understanding. It doesn't take long before Sir James comes down to interrogate her. At the persuasion of his personal knight, he agrees to move her from the dungeons and instead confine her to her bedchambers. Again. Soon credence of her claims come forward. It takes a while for James to believe she is not the woman who planned to betray him. It take even longer for him to believe that she wants to help him save his people. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months and before long romance blooms. James becomes very much attached to Daphne and acknowledges her as his real wife. He no longer sees Mary in her and hopes the other woman's soul never returns. Daphne too is having a conflict of interests. She's not here for love. Nor is she a hero. But now, it appears fate has thrust both upon her. How will she manage it?

[Warning: Contains Mature Content] "Beware of the tongue of a wicked woman. For it may tell a lie that would slay the world." Eighteen-Year-old rejected, wolfless and blind Zina is summoned to the capital to tell a vision for the ruthless and feared Alpha King of the North notoriously known as ‘The King Who Crowned Himself’. The result of Zina’s ‘false’ vision has the Alpha Prince and future Alpha Supreme, Daemon, banished from the capital to fight wars at the borders where only death awaits him in the hands of the famed Arising Rogues, and the even more famed Deformed. But Daemon survives fire, blood and claw, and not only does he survive, but six years later, he is back as Alpha Supreme, driven by vengeance against those who brought him down. Starting from his cunny siblings, to the eighteen-year old girl now twenty-four who spelt his destiny with just mere words, Daemon vows to leave no one unscathed. However Zina is well aware of her own treachery. Now the Theta to the same powerful werewolf house she told the dangerous lie against, and having tasted the bitter pill of betrayal from the very people she told the dangerous lie for, she is unwilling to resign to her fate just yet. But how do you melt the heart of a man that you once ruined? And how do you destroy a woman loved by all the common people, and perhaps, even the gods? Daemon will learn the hard way that not all vengeance can be taken, and not all debts can be collected. Secrets abound, the Deformed Werewolves are set to rise, and a rare chance at second mating befalls the two most unusual people. And now, one thing has become for sure—Daemon must first defeat the enemy outside, before he can truly confront her, who has become the enemy of his heart. **** Zina's back pressed against the wall as a taut body pinned her, their warmth mingling together. Four years of deadly anticipation had culminated into that very moment. His whispers caressed her ear, sending shivers that had nothing to do with the chill in the air down her spine. “Since you see visions so well, tell me Theta of my house, do you see the day you will die?” His breath ghosted over her skin, reminding her of a debt to be collected. Swallowing and maintaining a tight grip on her staff despite the body that burned against hers, she answered firmly. “I am afraid the gods haven’t shown me yet.” The man over her smiled shrewdly. His lips grazed her ear, his hot breath sending waves of sensation. “I believe in all of the names I have been called, one of them is god. So let me tell you that which you do not know… “…today is the day you will die.”

The year is 476 AD. The great beast that is the Western Roman Empire lies dying. Outside the dismal fog-bound walls of Ravenna the barbarian king Odoacer waits patiently with his horde. He is ready to claim the corpse of a civilization that ruled the world for a thousand years. Inside the cold palace sits Romulus Augustus. He is merely fifteen years old. The world sees him as nothing more than a puppet emperor wearing a crown too heavy for his head. He is a placeholder draped in purple silk waiting for history to finally turn the page on Rome. His own people whisper insults behind his back and call him the Little Disgrace. But fate is cruel. When his father, the empire's last true protector, dies in the mud, the illusion of safety shatters completely. The siege begins and Romulus finds himself abandoned. His generals are traitors looking for a new master and his own guards prepare to trade his young life for their safety. He is trapped in a city ready to surrender him to the butchers outside. Yet in the deepest valley of despair a strange new strength is born. Broken by grief and terror Romulus sheds the skin of the frightened boy. He refuses to be a sacrificial lamb. Armed only with a stolen dagger and a burning need for vengeance he crawls out of his besieged city through the filth of the sewers. He goes not to escape but to hunt. Tonight the boy king dies and something else takes his place. History has written Rome’s obituary but the Wolf of Ravenna is about to rewrite it in blood.
