Introduction
2. Tieni la testa bassa, non mescolarti con altri sopravvissuti.
3. Rimani nascosto. Non farti vedere.
4. Stai lontano dalle città.
5. Non correre rischi inutili.
Il mondo finì a metà aprile, la civiltà come la conoscevamo non fu mai più la stessa, alcuni dicono che i cancelli dell'inferno si aprirono e inghiottirono tutto ciò che trovavano sul loro cammino; e non posso dire che abbiano del tutto torto. L'elettricità fu la prima cosa a sparire, il primo passo nel loro piano per rendere l'umanità loro schiava, e avevano aiuto; covi di fae si unirono a loro, comprando la promessa di governare sui comuni mortali. Nessuno sa come ci riuscirono, ma tutto d'un tratto, in tutto il mondo, tutto semplicemente... si fermò. Le auto non si accendevano, le luci non si accendevano, gli aerei da combattimento non potevano difendere i paesi dall'assalto che sarebbe seguito. Anche i generatori stanchi delle persone che usavano nelle loro piccole cabine nei boschi non si accendevano. Era come se la tecnologia avesse abbandonato la razza umana.

"C-cosa volete da me?" balbettai, spaventata e sola.
Loro sorrisero, ma era più inquietante che divertente. "Lo scoprirai presto, ma non provare nulla ragazza, non ti piaceranno le conseguenze di disobbedirci."
"Perché avete scelto di tenermi in vita?"
"Di solito uccidiamo tutti quelli che incontriamo, ma per te abbiamo fatto un'eccezione." Uno di loro ridacchiò, giocando con la punta affilata delle mie orecchie, "Vuoi sapere perché? Perché sei nostra."

Il mondo finì a metà aprile, la civiltà come la conoscevamo non fu mai più la stessa, alcuni dicono che i cancelli dell'inferno si aprirono e inghiottirono tutto ciò che trovavano sul loro cammino; e non posso dire che abbiano completamente torto. L'elettricità fu la prima a sparire, il primo passo nel loro piano di rendere l'umanità loro schiava, e avevano aiuto; coven di fate si unirono a loro, credendo nella promessa di governare sui mondani. Nessuno sa come abbiano fatto, ma tutto d'un tratto, in tutto il mondo, tutto si fermò... Le auto non si avviavano, le luci non si accendevano, gli aerei da combattimento non potevano difendere i paesi dall'assalto che sarebbe seguito. Anche i generatori esausti che le persone usavano nelle loro piccole cabine nei boschi non funzionavano. Era come se la tecnologia avesse abbandonato la razza umana.
La gente andò nel panico, correndo ai supermercati e rubando quanto più potevano portare, barricandosi nelle loro case e chiudendo le finestre. Le notizie si diffusero rapidamente che non era un incidente, che qualcuno stava attaccando; ma nessuno sapeva chi, o perché.
Suppongo fosse quello il piano, senza TV, telefoni o internet, nessuno avrebbe saputo cosa stava arrivando fino a quando non fosse stato troppo tardi. Ma mio padre sapeva, era stato parte di uno dei coven che si unirono agli oscuri, uno dei pochi che si era girato e fuggito prima che le cose diventassero serie, anche se mia madre non era tra loro. Lei fu meno fortunata. Non ricordo cosa venne dopo, se furono i mastini dell'inferno o il virus che uccise quelli con disturbi del sangue, non credo che nessuno lo sappia davvero.
Alcuni dicono che solo metà della popolazione è sparita, ma io so che è molto di più, non ci sono molti liberi rimasti. Anche perché non ci sono molte persone in generale. A volte li vedo, i loro cadaveri in decomposizione che riempiono le strade tra le città, famiglie morte di fame nelle loro case, persino quelli che non volevano affrontare la realtà e si suicidarono nei primi giorni della fine. Ma non sono quelli che mi fanno venire i brividi, quel posto è riservato per quelli con solo pezzi di carne rimasti sulle ossa, quelli prosciugati di sangue e quelli la cui pelle è diventata verde e macchiata dal virus. Sono quelli che mi fanno venire voglia di svuotare quel poco che ho nello stomaco sulla strada.
Sono quelli che si muovono costantemente che sopravvivono, quelli che non cercano guai e si girano dall'altra parte quando ci sono segni di altre persone. È più difficile vivere da soli, ma è il modo migliore, non hai nessuno che ti rallenti, che mangi quel poco cibo che riesci a trovare, e che metta a rischio la tua vita quando sono stanchi. Avevo mio padre una volta, mesi fa, ma i mastini ci trovarono e lui mi disse di correre, e anche se lo rimpiango ancora oggi, i suoni di loro che strappavano la sua carne. Sono contento di averlo fatto.
Non volevo morire, non a diciannove anni, avevo ancora anni davanti a me se giocavo bene le mie carte, se seguivo le regole e stavo lontano dalle persone.
Sono una fata come mio padre, ma il suo potere era basato sulla terra, il mio è un po' diverso, diceva sempre che avevo una mente forte e aveva ragione. Posso muovere le cose con un solo pensiero, sollevare e lanciare oggetti che pesano più di me, sentire i pensieri degli umani; persino fermare qualcuno dal muoversi se necessario. Ho dovuto usarlo alcune volte, quando le persone hanno cercato di prendere le provviste che avevo, quando le loro intenzioni erano di violare o uccidermi.
Non ho mai ucciso, papà non voleva che diventassi un mostro come quelli da cui fuggo, ma ho immobilizzato le persone abbastanza a lungo per permettermi di scappare indenne. Ho congelato i loro corpi e poi li ho resi incoscienti, o ho slogato una delle loro gambe per renderli più lenti. Non ero esattamente fiera delle cose che ho dovuto fare, ma la sopravvivenza non è sempre bella, devi prendere decisioni difficili, quelle che non ti sarebbero mai passate per la mente nei giorni prima della fine. Ma le cose cambiano, e sopravvivere sta diventando più difficile ogni giorno che passa.
È inverno ora, l'aria è amara e gelida, la neve è caduta pesantemente negli ultimi giorni e ricopre il terreno come una coperta di morte. La neve complica le cose, permette alle persone di seguire le tue tracce, vedere dove sei stato. La profondità ti rende più lento e devi fermarti di più, accendere più fuochi per combattere il freddo.
Ero vicino a una piccola città, forse mezza giornata di cammino se i segnali erano corretti e la neve si scioglieva durante la notte. Ma, non ce l'avrei fatta oggi, le mie gambe tremavano e la mia schiena urlava per il sollievo dallo zaino pesante che portavo.
Il mondo è finito, ma eccomi qui a combattere, ma per cosa?
Qual è il punto?

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.

Crowned by Fate
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” my mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”

Among humans, I survived by becoming a master of the temporary: drifting job to job… until I became the best bartender in a dusty Texas town.

The Alpha King Tournament, held once every four years, had begun. Over fifty packs from across North America were competing.

After the Affair: Falling into a Billionaire's Arms
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.
