Chapter 1
DARREN’s P.O.V.
For a countless time today, I just sighed. I remembered everything that Dad told me earlier. Every single condition that I need to fulfilled and rules to be followed just to take over our company.
“Why can’t you just give it to me, Dad?” I asked furiously to him.
My father, Darrel Herrera, is the CEO of Herrera Corp. How I wish that he would step over his position and let me run the company.
“I already told you, Darren. I can’t entrust the company to you until you get married.”
“But why?” I asked out of frustration.
“Herrera Corp. is like a big family. Every single department has its own duties. And being the CEO means that you are the father of that family, Darren. The family I struggled to build for several years. How can I make sure that you can handle seven thousand employees if you can’t even raise your own family?”
“I’m too young for marriage, Dad. And I don’t want to settle down. Just... Not now, please.”
“Then I will not entrust the company to you and I won’t let you be the CEO of Herrera Corp. I’ll wait until you get married in order to make sure that you have a wife and a child. Good bye, son. I need to get ready for our board meeting.”
Annoyed, I punched my office desk as he leave the room. I sat on my swivel chair frustrated, still thinking of some other way to get my Dad’s approval. All my life, I worked so hard to be in this position. To have everything that I’ve got today. Now that I’m already close to the top, I will never stop and give up. Not anymore.
Just as I was about to leave my office, I received a call from someone. It was my Dad’s secretary, informing me about the upcoming party tomorrow night.
“Mr. Herrera told me to make sure that you’ll come. He said it’s very important. Mr. Frias will be there too.”
“What if I don’t want to come?”
“Mr. Herrera will surely be mad. And please do come, Sir Darren. I might lose my job here.”
I smirk before putting down the phone. As if I will come to that stupid party anyways. A few minutes passed and after realizing what I’ve just done, I texted my best friend stating everything that happened. He didn’t reply, though he called me a few moments later.
“Bro... What’s up? Why don’t you just be nice to your father and go there?”
“I don’t want to. After what my Dad told me earlier? I’ll make sure that I’m going to be a pain in his ass if he don’t give me what I want.”
“You’ll only make things worst, Darren. You should be always on his good side if you really wanted to take over your company.”
I harshly sighed, pissed at his “goodie” response.
“What was that sigh all about? If you don’t want to listen to me, that’s fine, bro.” He said as he chuckled.
“Why does it even matter? I’ll get the company whatever it takes. Even attending that stupid party.”
“Well that’s the spirit! Enjoy, bro.”
“Will you come?”
“You’re so hilarious. I’m not even invited. And that party was for rich people only.”
“I’ll send an invitation to your house.”
“Yeah, yeah. Whatever. I’ll think about it, bro. Bye.”
Before I could even say another word, he dropped the call. I was busy thinking about that party all day long. Like what Elijah had said before, I need to be on my Dad’s good side to get his approval. I’ll better be prepared, cause until now I still don’t know what he was planning for me.

From Best Friend To Fiancé
I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip.

Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.

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.

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.

In despair, Sable left, reclaimed her true identity, and married her childhood neighbor—Lycan King Caelan, nine years her senior and her fated mate. Now Darrell desperately tries to win her back. How will her revenge unfold?

Noah

From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.

I’d make damn sure he never forgot who he belonged to.
