WARNING: DARK ROMANCE "Who knew that something so beautiful could come out of filth like Edmund?" He says, as he runs the backs of his fingers up and down my bare skin. Goosebumps spring up immediately. "Who would have imagined," he says slowly, savoring every word, "that something so exquisite could be born from a man as vile as your father." His eyes trace me with deliberate leisure, stripping, measuring. I felt skinned under his gaze. "A rapist," he continues lightly, as if reciting lines from a book. "A butcher of children. A coward who kills pregnant women and plunges his weapon into a friend's back." He stepped closer. Too close. "And yet," he murmurs, voice dropping, "he left this behind." His smile sharpened. I can't move. I can't breathe. "You should be grateful," he goes on, almost kindly. "If you had been born uglier, I would have killed you like the rest." A pause, then his hands on my cheek, gentle. "But beauty like yours," he adds, eyes darkening, "is worth breaking slowly." * What is worse than being rejected once? Being rejected two more times. Xira Valeen is a defective wolf who never thought she would get a mate.

Publicly rejected by Alpha Silas and cast into the deadly shadows of the forest, she is left for dead. ​But the woods hold secrets older than the packs. Deep in the dark, Elara encounters the Lunar Sentinel, a power that offers her a choice: die a victim, or rise as the shadow they should have feared.

But Thorne isn't letting her go. — ~Excerpt~ "Because," he said, his voice dropping to a husky growl that made my core clench, "my restraint is going to shatter if you keep touching me." The words hung in the air between us. I looked down, following his gaze, and saw it, the unmistakable bulge pressed against his pants, hard and straining. My pheromones. They were affecting him. "I would like to take you up on your offer," he muttered, his voice rugged, tipping into ravenous. Confusion whirled through me. "What offer?" "The kiss," he whispered. "Not a peck, Thea." My heart ceased beating, liquid fire filling my veins. "I want tongue.” — Dark paranormal romance Morally Grey ML Forced proximity Captor/Captive ENEMIES to lovers Fated mates Angst Smut

I never liked him. At least, that’s what I told myself in the beginning. He was just another classmate—someone I barely paid attention to, someone who didn’t matter. But somewhere between shared classrooms, quiet glances, and moments I didn’t think twice about… something changed. I started noticing him. Not all at once. Not in a way that made sense. Just little things. Little moments. Thirty-six of them, to be exact. What I thought was nothing slowly became something I couldn’t ignore. And yet, even as my feelings grew, so did my doubts. Mixed signals, unanswered questions, and the fear of being wrong kept me stuck between denial and realization. Only a few people knew. Or at least, they weren’t supposed to. Because some feelings are easier to hide… until they aren’t. And by the time I finally understood what I felt, I also realized something else— Not every story is meant to be returned. Not every almost becomes something real. This is the story of how I fell for someone I was never meant to have… …and how, even after thirty-six moments, I’m still not sure what any of it meant.

“Do not expect a husband, Woman. I have no room in my chest for a heart– only the King’s law.” I flinched, my eyes filling with fresh tears at the cruelty of his words. "My Lord, I only-" “Be silent,” he spat, not even looking at me. "You are no wife. Only a burden I must now carry across the kingdom.” He gripped my upper arm with a painful force, his strength bruising and indifferent, as he dragged me toward the towering, battle-scarred warhorse. “If you have any dignity left in you, stay downwind and out of my sight. Looking at you is a chore I no longer wish to endure."

His free hand strayed. They burned as they slid across my waist. And higher. Dangerously close to the under curve of my breast. “The thing with girls like you, Maisie, is that you think all you need to fix to be picked is your appearance.

You’re the kind that’s only good enough to fuck, but never good enough to be chosen.” *** After getting rejected by her mate, Cole Hayes, the future Alpha of the pack, and nearly losing her life from the pain of it, Maisie Adams and her best friends concoct a fail safe plan to get back at him and save her from dying. Phase I: Get a make over and become the hottest thing in Ashfall. Phase II: Make out with a hot stranger. Phase III: Get a boyfriend, someone hotter, someone older, and lose your V-card. Phase IV: Get Cole Hayes to apologize. Phase V: Reject Cole Hayes. What they do not, however, account for is Cole Hayes falling for Maisie and being unable to let her go. Even worse, they sure as hell couldn’t have known Maisie would catch the attention of the four Lycan royals at the academy and accidentally bond with them!

"They traded my soul for a seat at the table. Now, I’m here to burn the table down." Twenty-four years ago, the Adeyemi dynasty made a cold-blooded calculation. To secure their status within the High Regency, they chose their heirs and their image over their own blood. While her two brothers and her sister were raised in the gilded luxury of Lekki, Winifred was labeled the "Fourth Mistake"—a ghost in a family ledger that was never meant to be read. Discarded into the red dust of the mainland and left to the fire, they thought she was a shadow that would never find its way home. They were wrong. Winifred has spent two decades evolving. Known in the digital underground as The Weaver, she is a cyber-architect with the power to dismantle an empire with a single keystroke. She doesn't want their love, and she doesn't want their name. She wants the truth. Supported by James—a lethal, elite Vanguard who serves as her silent shield—Winifred has infiltrated the heart of the Adeyemi servers. As the family prepares for the Gala of the century, the digital countdown is already live. The two brothers who replaced her, the sister who took her place, and the mother who sold her out are about to face the 100% Reality. The Discarded Daughter is back in Lagos, and this time, the fire belongs to her.

Being fated to three Alphas should have made her the most blessed she-wolf in the packs. Instead, it made her their game. One toyed with her life. One pretended to love her. One tried to control her power. But when betrayal shatters her heart, she leaves them all behind. Except... one Alpha refuses to let her escape. Because to him, she was never a pawn. She was always his mate. The mate he had waited...hundreds of years for. Valerie Jude was once the beloved daughter of the pack’s greatest warrior, until her father was executed for a crime he swore he never committed. Branded as a traitor’s daughter, she was stripped of her status and forced into slavery within the very pack her father once protected. For eight years, Valerie lived in silence, enduring humiliation, beatings, and hunger in the shadows of the pack house. Stripped of dignity, forced to survive as a slave, she learned one rule: .....endure, or die. Even her wolf became a secret she could never reveal. Because the truth behind her father’s death was more dangerous than she ever imagined. Days before the future alpha’s ascension, Valerie stumbles upon a conversation she was never meant to hear. A sick bet. A calculated betrayal. And a truth that shatters her remaining hope. The man she trusted is not her savior, but one of her tormentors. The alpha who ruined her life… is her fated mate. To him, the sacred mate bond is not a blessing, it is a punishment. A humiliation he plans to repay with cruelty, rejection, and destruction. To the others, Valerie is nothing more than a prize to be used and discarded. But fate was never done with her. As three alphas close in on her, each with their own twisted intentions or dark desires, Valerie stands at the edge of something far more dangerous than suffering. The awakening of the wolf she was forced to silence. When the truth behind her father’s execution begins to surface, and her wolf stirs once more, the three alphas will learn too late: The girl they broke was never weak. And the mate they planned to destroy… Was never meant to kneel!!!!!

Nadia Voss has spent a decade being the backbone of the Ironstone Pack. She built its defenses, funded its watchtowers, trained its warriors, and raised its heir. She was also, slowly and without anyone noticing, given less and less in return. When the Ashveil Curse claims her, the pack's healer names a cure: the Silver Moon Rite, performed within forty-eight hours. Her Alpha mate, Cassian, gives it instead to Lyra- the adopted sister Nadia herself brought home at seventeen, who has spent the years since taking everything Nadia owned, one piece at a time. Nadia does not scream. She does not fight. She signs every document they put in front of her with a steady hand and a composed face. But in the three days before her death, she moves with the precision of someone who has been planning longer than anyone realized- locking assets behind bloodline seals, registering evidence with neutral-territory law, writing a letter that will be released only when the people who wronged her have begun to relax. She dies alone on the third day. Then the trap begins to close. And fourteen months later, in a neutral-zone legal office, a woman places a document on a desk and begins the process of returning to the life she was owed. Blood and Silver is a story about what strength actually looks like when no one is watching- and what the patient and the precise can build, even at the end.
