The Alpha's Call

by Bianca Alejandra

When the Mating Call begins under the full moon, Lyla follows a hair-raising howl to her true mate - Sebastian, the Royal Alpha. Will she accept her destiny as royal Luna, or will she stay loyal to her childhood sweetheart?

Foolish Games

Foolish Games

by Shala Mungroo

Jessie likes her quiet life exactly the way it is. No drama, no spotlight, and definitely no attention from the most popular guy at school. She keeps her head down, avoids gossip, and plans to survive college unnoticed. Then Nick walks straight into her carefully guarded world with an easy smile and far too much confidence. Everyone adores him, but Jessie isn’t impressed by charm, football trophies, or pretty blue eyes. That only seems to make Nick more determined. The more he chases her, the more Jessie realizes there’s something unexpectedly genuine beneath his golden-boy reputation. Between teasing conversations, stolen moments, and feelings neither of them planned for, Jessie starts wondering if being noticed might not be the worst thing after all.
