Owned by the Alphas

Owned by the Alphas

by Jen Cooper

Nikolai. Braxton. Derik. Three alphas who have pledged to protect the humans in their territory. All they ask in return is one night with the virgins of the villages, one night to take them under the blood moon and complete the ritual. This year is Lorelai’s turn. A winter born, cursed—or blessed—with powers rarely seen, Lorelai has been shunned by the other villagers her whole life. Once she’s taken to the wolves’ mansion, she takes matters into her own hands. After all, what if one night just isn’t enough?

Alpha King's Hybrid Mate

by Breeanna Belcher

I feel his hand circle my hips, pulling me into him.

I feel sparks when he touches me. My body turns to fire. It feels so damn good.

He tilts my head up so I am looking at him.

He gazes deep into my eyes.

“You bow to no one,” he instructs.

His voice sounds like heaven, and my thoughts begin to race.

“Ladies and wolves!” he announces to the crowd. “Your Queen Luna!”

The Irish Syndicate Book 1: Our Wicked Cravings

by M. L. Smith

"You have always been mine.”

Mina never expected to see her stepbrother again—let alone like this.

Ronan, the ruthless head of Boston’s crime syndicate, doesn’t just want her—he owns her now. Years of silent obsession have built to this moment, and he won’t let anything—or anyone—stand between them. As enemies circle and the syndicate teeters on the edge, one thing’s clear: he’s not letting her go, no matter how dark things get.

The Lycan's Queen

Unexpected Storm

Unexpected Storm

by R. S. Aria

She swore she’d never cross that line.

He was off-limits—her best friend’s brother, her longtime secret crush.

But one kiss changes everything.

Mia made a promise: no falling for her best friend’s brother. Easy... until she comes home for the summer and sees Storm again—older, inked, and every bit the heartbreaker she used to secretly dream about. One kiss ruins her good intentions. One night makes everything complicated. The boy she wasn’t supposed to want is now the man she can’t resist. Every touch is a secret, every glance a risk. But what started as a fling becomes something neither of them can ignore. Breaking the rules could cost Mia everything—her friendship, her peace, even her heart. But denying how she feels? That might destroy her.

Infinity

Infinity

by Mikayla S

I met my mate as a child.

I was lost in the woods, and his calming voice guided me to safety without ever revealing himself.

Since then, he’s watched over me but never showed himself. I yearn to touch him, to hold him.

Yet still, he lurks in the shadows, never claiming me.

I wonder if there’s something wrong with me. Am I not good enough for him?

But then, when I turn 21, I’m attacked by rogues and left for dead. As I feel the life drain from my body, a creature appears on the edge of my blurry vision.

“Stay strong, little mate. You’re mine now.”

As the mate bond surges between us, I know he’s not a wolf.

He’s something older… Darker… Deadlier.

Who the hell is my mate?

And what will happen to me now?

But when ruthless King Cazimir takes her across the border, her secret becomes a dangerous weapon. His cursed lands are dying, and only she can break the spell… if he doesn’t break her first. He sees her as a pawn, yet fate has marked her as something far more intimate: his fated mate. Desire coils between them, fierce and treacherous, pulling her toward a man who could either save her or ruin her completely. The closer she gets to him, the more the line between captor and protector blurs—and resisting him may be the hardest battle of all.

“Oh yeah? What?” My father snarled.

The Lycan looked straight at me.

“My mate.”
