Lunar Bonds: Alpha's Redemption
Werewolf Journalist Elena Carter anticipates a peaceful reprieve from her turbulent past when she relocates to the remote village of Blackwood Falls. Rather, she discovers a realm of mysteries, peril, and a myth she never accepted: werewolves.
The sulky Alpha of the Blackwood Pack, Kieran Blackwood, is doomed by a troubled history and a battle to restrain his wolf nature. Elena is thrown into a lethal game of pack politics, rogue wolves, and an unbreakable bond when she discovers his secret.
Elena and Kieran have to cooperate to defeat a shared foe as the town's attacks intensify. However, trust is brittle, and with each new moon, the distinction between humans and beasts becomes more hazy. Can they put aside their disagreements to keep the community safe and one another or will they be torn apart by the specters of the past?
The Silver Moon's Betrayal
Werewolf In the heart of a forest where the wild creatures roam, there exists a clan of werewolves, each bound by the ancient laws of their kind. Among them is a young female werewolf, Aria, who is the embodiment of strength and grace, though she is unaware of her true power. Orphaned at a young age and taken in by her father's new wife, Aria's life has been one of suffering. Her stepmother, Selene, and her stepsister, Lila, have made it their mission to belittle and abuse her, treating her as nothing more than a servant in their lavish home.
But Aria's suffering runs deeper than mere cruelty. Betrayal has poisoned the very roots of her trust. Her best friend, Zara, whom she has confided in and loved as a sister, has turned against her in the most painful way imaginable. Zara's betrayal has shattered Aria's heart and left her isolated from everyone she once cared for.
The story takes a turn when Aria discovers that her stepsister, Lila, is set to marry Dante, a man whom everyone believes is weak and poor. Lila is ecstatic, thinking she has won the favor of the most powerful man in the region. However, what no one knows is that Dante's true identity is far more dangerous and powerful than anyone could ever imagine. He is not the poor, helpless man he seems to be but rather a formidable figure with immense wealth and influence, capable of changing the fate of all who dare to cross him.
What's worse, Aria's stepmother, Selene, has her own plans for the marriage. Instead of Lila, Selene wants Aria to marry Dante. With this marriage, she believes she can secure her own position of power and wealth. But what Selene doesn't understand is that Aria is not a pawn to be manipulated.
As Aria's journey unfolds, she uncovers hidden truths about her lineage, her powers, and the betrayal that runs deeper than she could have ever imagined. With the help of unlikely allies, Aria must navigate the treacherous politics of the werewolf world, reclaim her power, and confront the darkest truths of her life. Will she rise above her suffering and take control of her destiny, or will she fall victim to the machinations of those who wish to control her?
The Silver Moon's Betrayal is a tale of power, love, vengeance, and self-discovery, where the stakes are as high as the full moon that rises over the forest. Aria must choose between love and duty, between the family that has betrayed her and the man who could either save or destroy her. Will the moon's light shine on her path to redemption, or will darkness consume her? Beneath the Veil of Doubt
Billionaires Maya Evans has spent the entirety of her twenty-four years living under the suffocating expectations of her family. Raised by her aunt Ruth, who often treated her less like a niece and more like a pawn in her own personal game of control, Maya has always struggled to find her own voice. Her stepfather, Martin, is no less oppressive, constantly reminding her that her worth in life lies in her ability to secure a wealthy and stable marriage. His disapproval is the invisible hand that pushes her toward a life she feels she has no say in - a life bound by obligation and dictated by her family's rigid standards.
Living in a small coastal town where everyone knows everyone's business, Maya feels the weight of her family's expectations pressing down on her every single day. It's a place that's picturesque and serene on the outside, but beneath the surface, it's a prison where the unspoken rule is that women marry for security, not for love. Maya's every move is watched. Her every action scrutinized. Yet, no matter how hard she works at the quaint café that's become her safe haven, or how hard she tries to make peace with the life they've chosen for her, she cannot escape the feeling that something essential is missing - a sense of autonomy, a chance to define her own path.
Her family, particularly her aunt Ruth, has arranged for her to marry George, a man they insist is her only ticket to stability. He's wealthy, successful, and well-established, but Maya feels nothing for him except resentment and frustration. George's controlling nature, his condescending attitude, and the stark age difference between them make her skin crawl. But in her family's eyes, George represents the security that Maya has been conditioned to believe she needs. And so, she remains silent, hoping the engagement will be a distant memory in her mind's eye, even as she counts the days until her escape.
One evening, after yet another heated dinner with her family, Maya meets Ethan Blackwood, a man who will change the course of her life. He's nothing like the men her family wants for her - in fact, he seems to have no place in the world she's known. Ethan is an enigma, a stranger in town with a quiet intensity that both unsettles and intrigues her. With his dark hair, sharp features, and the faintest hint of melancholy in his eyes, Ethan radiates an air of mystery that makes her question everything she's ever believed about love, security, and happiness.
From the moment Maya and Ethan meet, there's an undeniable connection, one that both frightens and excites her. He treats her with respect and kindness, seeing her not as an object to be managed but as a person, a woman worthy of her own choices. For the first time, Maya feels seen and heard, not for her family's plans or her status as a "good match," but as herself - a woman with desires, dreams, and a heart that yearns for more than what's been offered to her. Every encounter with Ethan feels like a breath of fresh air, a glimpse into a world where she could be free from the weight of her family's expectations.
However, as Maya begins to open her heart to Ethan, she begins to notice strange things about him - his reluctance to talk about his past, his frequent absences, and the air of mystery that surrounds him. It isn't until a chance encounter with a business associate of his that Maya learns the truth: Ethan is not just a charming stranger. He's a billionaire, one of the wealthiest men in the world, hiding from the press, the constant pressure of his family, and the suffocating demands of his high-profile life.
The revelation shocks Maya to her core, not because she's repelled by his wealth, but because it's another layer of deceit that forces her to question everything about him. Had he been using her? Did he ever truly care for her, or was this another game for him to play? As their relationship deepens, so does the distance between them, and Maya is left questioning whether the man she's begun to fall for has been truthful with her at all.
At the same time, Maya's family becomes more insistent about George, pressuring her to accept his proposal and end this rebellious phase of her life. Her aunt Ruth has made it clear that she will no longer be tolerated as a free spirit, and that her future lies with George. Martin, too, reiterates that a man like George is the only chance Maya has to escape a life of hardship and uncertainty. The pressure mounts, and Maya is torn between the man she's come to care for - a man who holds secrets she's not sure she can trust - and her family's manipulative plans.
In the midst of this emotional turmoil, Maya must make a choice. Does she follow her heart, trusting Ethan even when everything she's known and been told seems to be unraveling? Or does she submit to the life her family has laid out for her, knowing she'll never feel the same way about George? Can she forgive Ethan's lies, or has she been blinded by her need for love and acceptance? You might like

AlisTae "Ahh!"
She was in a moaning mess. She did not want to feel anything for this man. She hated him.
His hands began to move all over her body.
She gasped when he pulled down the back chain of her dress. The chain stopped at her lower waist, so when he zipped it off, her upper back and waist were exposed.
"D-Don't touch m-ummm!"
His fingers rolled around her bare back, and she pressed her head against the pillow. His touches were giving her goosebumps all over her body.
With a deep angry voice, he whispered in her ear,
"I am going to make you forget his touches, kisses, and everything. Every time you touch another man, you will only think of me."

BOOK ONE:
After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner.
King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her.
But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
