Maya, an omega, has been a victim of bullying since she turned sixteen and was found out to be without the wolf gene or trait. Her chief tormentors were the three sons of the Lycan King who ruled over the entire werewolf regions, taking into captive colonies that defied his order. After being set up by a jealous classmate, Maya is beaten and left for dead at the borders of their pack by the king’s three sons, who told the pack that she had been captured by some rogues. Maya is saved by a witch who adopted and drilled her on the ways of the ancient magic and sorcery, whilst encouraging and preparing her for a huge revenge plan which threatens to upset the balance of the world and unleash the great threads of darkness seven years later when she returns to her previous pack to perpetrate justice on her tormentors. She comes at a crossroads, however, when she discovers her true heritage and that her mate was the biggest bully there ever was, Adam Brekans, eldest son of the lycan king. What happens now? Would Maya continue on her quest for revenge? Or would she submit to the threads of love so that peace could reign?

[Warning: Possessive and yandere alphas, kidnapping, harem, and smut!] Lucien de Luca, heir to blood and bullets, wears the crown of the Lucero Syndicate, the most feared mafia in the country. A ruthless don with an empire at his feet, he built his throne on loyalty, violence, and cold calculation. But beneath the smoke, silk, and gunpowder, Lucien hides a dangerous secret. He’s not just the mafia’s serpent king, he’s an omega. And not just any omega, one who craves to be claimed, knotted, and broken by the kind of alpha strong enough to put him on his knees. The betrayal comes from within. His stepbrother—beloved right-hand, trusted shadow—sells him to five rival alphas, thinking it will erase Lucien from the game and leave the Lucero empire ripe for the taking. Only Lucien isn’t the helpless pawn his brother imagines. He’s the one holding the strings. He lets himself fall into the hands of his enemies… Because what better way to satisfy his darkest desires than to be devoured by four predators at once? But betrayal never goes unpunished. Before surrendering himself, Lucien left behind a gift, one last trap. And when it springs, his brother’s dream of power will burn to ashes, while Lucien takes his place exactly where he’s always longed to be: tangled in the arms of his alphas, finally free to indulge the filthy, dangerous hunger he’s denied all his life.

BLURB: Elara Thornwood spent her life obsessed with ancient weapons—until one of her own swords killed her in a freak accident orchestrated by those she trusted most. She awakens not in heaven or hell, but trapped inside the very blade that took her life: the legendary Blade of Remembrance, said to grant its wielder ultimate power. But this isn't her world anymore. She's been reborn in a different timeline where magic exists, dynasties war for supremacy, and her former collection now represents artifacts of immense supernatural power scattered across kingdoms. Imprisoned in a sacred cave for three hundred years, Elara can only watch, wait, and remember her betrayal. She has consciousness but no body, voice but no one to hear her, and a burning need for vengeance she cannot act upon—until HE arrives. Darian Stormhaven, the disgraced Crown Prince stripped of his title after his fiancée's public betrayal with his own brother, stumbles into the forbidden cave while fleeing assassins. Desperate and broken, he reaches for the black sword with the crimson edge—and Elara finally has her chance. But the soul-bond between sword and wielder goes both ways. Elara can see Darian's memories, feel his pain, and access his thoughts. Worse—he can hear her voice, something no wielder in history has ever experienced. Their connection violates every law of magic. As Darian rises from disgrace to reclaim his throne using Elara's power, she discovers three terrifying truths: First, the people who killed her exist in this timeline and are hunting for her blade. Second, Darian's treacherous brother possesses another weapon from her collection—one she knows intimately. Third, the more Darian uses her power, the more human she becomes... but at a cost that could destroy them both. When Elara's original body appears in this timeline—alive, whole, and with no memory of ever being a sword—she must choose between reclaiming her humanity or remaining the weapon that the man she's falling for desperately needs to survive. Because the greatest betrayal isn't the one she remembers. It's the one she's about to commit. SETTING: The Empire of Aethermoor—a realm where ancient magic flows through sacred weapons, noble houses scheme for the throne, and the boundary between the living and the dead is thinner than anyone knows. Primary locations: The Forbidden Cave of Echoes, the Imperial Capital of Goldspire, and the Shadow Court where exiled royals plot their return.
