Chapter 1
Um grito agudo preencheu a noite silenciosa. Para Waylen, isso não significava mais nada. A floresta estava cheia de gritos a cada segundo. A cada minuto, um herói caía. As gramas estavam molhadas, e não era por causa da chuva. O sangue dos caídos cobria cada centímetro do chão.
Waylen pulou sobre um corpo enquanto corria. Ele não se importava mais com sua própria vida. O único pensamento em sua cabeça era chegar até sua esposa. Ele a deixou para trás quando ouviu que o inimigo estava na vila, largou tudo e foi atrás dela. Ela era seu mundo e ele não poderia continuar vivendo se algo acontecesse com ela.
A vila parecia ainda pior do que a floresta. Corpos estavam espalhados por toda parte. As casas estavam em chamas e as crianças que haviam sido poupadas choravam. Ele deveria parar e consolá-las. Levá-las para um lugar seguro. Assegurá-las de que tudo ficaria bem, mas ele simplesmente não conseguia.
Ele viu sua casa aparecer à vista e se esforçou ainda mais. Ignorou a queimação nas costelas ao parar na porta da frente. As portas estavam abertas, mas nenhum som vinha de dentro.
"Salma... meu amor, onde você está?" Não houve resposta dela. Nesse momento, ele desejou ser uma das feras. O cheiro dela o teria levado até ela, mas infelizmente ele era humano e tinha que continuar procurando até conseguir encontrá-la.
O quarto foi o primeiro lugar que ele verificou. Estava vazio. Ele correu pelo corredor e verificou o quarto dos filhos. Todos estavam vazios.
Onde ela poderia estar? Ele estava em pânico nesse ponto. Rezando silenciosamente para que as feras não a tivessem levado.
Ele ouviu um choro suave e o seguiu. A visão que encontrou na cozinha o assombraria para sempre. Sua esposa jazia sem vida, um buraco gigante em seu estômago. A filha de quatro anos sentada e olhando para o nada. A palavra "mamãe" caía continuamente de seus lábios.
"Salma" sua voz quebrou. Ele caiu de joelhos, segurando as mãos ensanguentadas dela. Ele estava atrasado demais. Sua esposa se foi. As lágrimas caíam livremente de seus olhos. Ele deveria protegê-la e cuidar dela.
A pequena menina estava imóvel. Sua cabeça continuava a reproduzir as imagens da morte de sua mãe. Ela estava escondida atrás do armário e não podia fazer nada além de olhar enquanto sua mãe era assassinada.
Foi só depois que os homens foram embora que ela rastejou para fora de seu esconderijo e sentou-se ao lado de sua mãe.
Depois de ficar sentado ao lado do corpo dela por uma longa hora, ele pegou sua filha e a trancou em um quarto. Ele foi buscar sua espada imediatamente depois. As feras sentiriam sua ira. Ele saiu da casa furioso. Rasgando qualquer fera em seu caminho. Ele tinha um único objetivo. Matar Gael. O líder das feras.
Ele chegou à morada deles e parou ao ver a cena. A orgulhosa fera guerreira segurava sua companheira morta nos braços. Seus gritos eram altos, soluços de partir o coração que sacudiam sua poderosa estrutura. Algo se moveu no coração de Waylen, sua espada caiu de suas mãos fazendo um barulho alto no chão. Os olhos de Gael se levantaram ao som e encontraram os dele.
A fera apenas o encarou. Ele não tinha mais desejo de lutar.
"Fomos tão tolos," ele disse com uma risada sem humor.
"Matamos por nada. Olhe para nós agora."
Waylen não disse nada e apenas olhou para o homem. Algumas feras entraram na área. Elas não prestaram atenção a Waylen. Ou não o viram ou seu foco total estava em seu líder que segurava sua companheira morta.
"Eu não vou lutar mais. Ou acabamos com essa guerra hoje ou você me mata agora."
"Eu não quero mais lutar," disse Waylen, e as feras voltaram sua atenção para ele.
Ele havia perdido a pessoa mais importante de sua vida por causa da guerra. Muitos de seu povo também se foram. A guerra não traria nenhuma mudança. Apenas estagnação e mais mortes. Era hora de pôr um fim a isso.
Com isso, Waylen virou as costas para as feras e se afastou da terra delas.
Os sobreviventes na vila olhavam para ele em busca de direção.
"A guerra chegou ao fim. Vamos enterrar nossos mortos e reconstruir nossa vila," o anúncio foi recebido com muitos aplausos.
E assim começou a reconstrução. Os mortos foram enterrados e, lentamente, os aldeões começaram a seguir em frente.
No quarto mês após o fim da guerra, Gael visitou a pequena vila. Os humanos o observaram surpresos enquanto ele caminhava pela vila até a casa do líder deles.
Waylen ficou ainda mais surpreso ao ver o homem em seu escritório. Ele alcançou sua pequena faca debaixo da mesa, mas Gael o interrompeu.
"Não há necessidade disso. Eu venho em paz," ele levantou as mãos em rendição e Waylen relaxou.
"Por que você está aqui?"
"Quero que façamos um tratado. Desde que nossa guerra terminou e concordamos silenciosamente em viver em paz, acho justo que tenhamos um tratado que proteja nosso povo."
Waylen assentiu em concordância. "Meu povo não machucará mais o seu povo e o seu povo não machucará o meu."
"Concordo. Você..."
"Papai?" Uma vozinha chamou da porta, interrompendo Gael. Ele se virou para olhar a pequena menina de olhos azuis arregalados. Os olhos da menina viajaram de seu pai para o homem estranho.
"Lucretia. Eu te disse para ficar no seu quarto," seu pai a repreendeu levemente.
"Eu tive um pesadelo," ela disse com uma vozinha.
"Volte para o seu quarto," ele repreendeu a menina. Ela se virou, mas não antes de Gael ver as lágrimas em seus olhos.
O tratado foi finalizado e Gael voltou para sua terra.
Por seis gerações, o tratado permaneceu em vigor. As duas espécies viveram juntas em harmonia até que o líder humano reinante, Carwyn, assassinou a companheira da fera reinante.
A fera entrou em fúria, matando todos e tudo em seu caminho.
O tratado foi destruído e as feras começaram a aterrorizar os humanos. Os humanos agora viviam com medo das feras.
Impulsionado por seus conselheiros, Carwyn tentou fazer as pazes. Em uma carta endereçada às feras, ele declarou que:
"A vila humana fornecerá uma fêmea para a fera reinante."
As feras aceitaram a oferta.
E assim começou. A escolha das fêmeas. Uma família seria selecionada para fornecer a fêmea e, quando a menina atingisse a maioridade, ela seria enviada para as Feras como companheira.
Os aldeões eram contra esse desenvolvimento, mas nada poderia mudá-lo. As meninas que se recusavam a ir eram arrastadas à força pelos guardas humanos até as fronteiras, onde as feras as pegavam.
As meninas levadas nunca mais eram vistas e os rumores começaram. Sussurrava-se que as feras matavam as meninas e descartavam os corpos.
Cada família temia a escolha. Pois tinham medo de perder suas filhas e ainda mais medo das consequências que seguiriam se não fornecessem uma companheira para a fera.

From Best Friend To Fiancé
I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip.
“I don’t just want to fuck you—I want to keep you. You’re my favorite sin, and I’ll commit it again and again until you understand you’re mine.” His lips twitched a little. “You’ve always been mine, Savannah.”

The Biker's Fate
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."

After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
