Introduction
Poco después de su vigésimo cuarto cumpleaños, su pareja finalmente aparece. Lo que no espera es que su pareja sea Carson Gray. El soltero más rico y elegible de la ciudad y el epítome de la belleza. Y lo peor de todo, Carson Gray es hermano de uno de los estudiantes de la escuela secundaria y uno de los nuevos miembros de la junta escolar.
Para evitar el caos innecesario, busca la ayuda de un viejo amigo que la ayuda a enmascarar su olor en caso de que se encuentre con Carson inesperadamente. Parece funcionar por un tiempo y, a medida que ella y Carson siguen encontrándose en situaciones bastante desagradables, se da cuenta de que tomó la decisión correcta. No hay manera de que Carson Gray pueda ser su pareja soñada. Es arrogante, frío, despiadado y narcisista.
La medicina parece enmascarar el olor de Bethany por un tiempo hasta que llega la fiesta de cumpleaños de uno de los amigos en común de Carson y Bethany. Ella olvida por completo la medicina y se va a nadar, y el agua elimina con éxito toda la medicina que enmascara el olor.
Carson obviamente se da cuenta y decir que está enojado es quedarse corto. Quiere saber por qué Bethany le negó la oportunidad de ser su pareja destinada. Quiere saber por qué Bethany piensa lo peor de él. Tiene tantas preguntas que Bethany responde con toda honestidad.
Le dice lo irritante que es, lo presumido que es.

Chapter 1
Me desperté con el sonido de pasos fuertes resonando por el apartamento de dos habitaciones que compartía con mi abuela, a quien cariñosamente llamaba "Mee-maw". Era inusual que ella se levantara antes que yo; su rutina matutina habitual no comenzaba hasta las 10 de la mañana. Sin embargo, esa mañana, ella estaba en movimiento antes de las 6 am.
No pude evitar preguntarme: ¿estaba nuestra casa en llamas?
Con ese pensamiento alarmante en mente, salté de la cama, vestido solo con una camiseta gris, grande y unos calzoncillos, y me apresuré a salir de mi dormitorio. Tal vez podría salvar algo del supuesto incendio, si es que la casa realmente estaba en llamas. O quizás Mee-maw simplemente estaba sonámbula.
Como si fuera una señal, la puerta de su dormitorio se abrió al mismo tiempo que la mía. Sin embargo, no estaba sola. En una mano, arrastraba su gran maleta, que albergaba su colección de ropa elegante, mientras que en la otra mano sostenía dos bolsos y su teléfono.
—¡Mee-maw! —exclamé, escaneando frenéticamente en busca de cualquier señal de fuego, pero no había ninguna.
Me acerqué para aliviarla de los bolsos, y ella no ofreció resistencia. Me dejó tomarlos y me hizo un gesto con la barbilla para que la guiara hacia la sala de estar.
—Mee-maw, ¿qué está pasando? —me planté en mi lugar—. Es demasiado temprano en la mañana. ¿A dónde vas? ¿Por qué están todas tus maletas empacadas?
Con un giro, Mee-maw, a pesar de sus setenta años, mostró una cantidad inusual de energía para la hora temprana. —Nunca adivinarás lo que pasó —sonrió.
—¿Qué pasó? —estaba ansioso por saber, dejando caer sus maletas al suelo.
—¡Jeffrey me pidió que me mudara con él!
—¿Jeffrey? ¿Quién es Jeffrey? —no recordaba a nadie en nuestras vidas con ese nombre.
—Mi novio, tonto —me dio un golpecito juguetón en el hombro.
—¿Qué? ¿Jeffrey es tu novio? ¿No lo conociste la semana pasada?
Mee-maw se encogió de hombros. —El tiempo es relativo, querido. No lo entenderías, siempre jugando a ser enfermero en esa escuela aburrida, todo el año, esperando a tu pareja.
Me burlé. —Primero, esa escuela "aburrida" paga mi salario, que cubre nuestro alquiler. Y segundo, ¿qué tiene de malo esperar a mi pareja?
Las maletas ahora estaban olvidadas, y Mee-maw me llevó a su dormitorio. Se sentó a mi lado en su cama temporalmente abandonada y sostuvo mis manos en las suyas. —Cariño, esperar a tu pareja no es algo malo. De hecho, muestra cuánto de mi ADN está en tu cuerpo.
Asentí, perdido en sus palabras.
—Conocí a tu abuelo, mi pareja, cuando tenía diecinueve años. Él era mecánico, y yo una simple florista. Pero me amaba profundamente. No hay nada como tener a tu propia pareja. Ya no tendrás que estar solo; tendrás a alguien que te cuide y te vigile.
—Me gustaría eso, Mee-maw —susurré. ¿Por qué mi pareja tenía que ser tan esquiva? Había estado esperando desde que cumplí dieciocho y me transformé por primera vez, pero seis años después, no había señales de ellos.
—Sé que tu pareja está ahí afuera —Mee-maw me consoló, su toque suave en mi mejilla—. Pero también tienes que hacer un esfuerzo para encontrarlos. Tienes veinticuatro años, y apenas sales a conocer gente. Olvidas que este es tu apartamento; ya no tienes toque de queda.
—Mee-maw —comencé a defender mi inexistente vida social, pero ella me interrumpió.
—Violet es tu única amiga, y está a cien millas de distancia. Necesitas hacer nuevos amigos, conocer gente nueva, y quién sabe, podrías encontrar a tu pareja.
—Entonces, ¿te mudas con Jeffrey? —traté de cambiar el tema. Era demasiado temprano para emociones intensas.
—Sí, así es —confirmó.
Me levanté, mirándola con incredulidad. —¡Solo lo conociste la semana pasada, Mee-maw! ¿Y si es un asesino en serie? ¿Quién se quedará conmigo? Primero, mis padres se fueron, luego Violet se fue, ¿y ahora tú también te vas?
Mee-maw negó con la cabeza y se rió. —Deja de ser dramático. No me estoy muriendo; solo me estoy mudando con mi novio que vive a cinco cuadras de aquí.
Sabía que estaba actuando de manera egoísta, pero Mee-maw era todo lo que me quedaba. No estaba seguro de si alguna vez encontraría a mi propia pareja, así que no sabía cómo navegar la vida sin ella.
Sin embargo, la parte adulta de mí estaba feliz por ella. Después de perder a abuelo, ella merecía una oportunidad de ser feliz. Si Jeffrey la hacía feliz, ¿quién era yo para interponerme en su camino?
—¿Me visitarás al menos? —pregunté esperanzado.
—Ni siquiera notarás que me he ido. ¿Cómo podría alejarme de mi nieto favorito?

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.”

Until fake kisses start to feel real.

I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.

Asher is a Navy veteran with battle scars and zero patience. He calls me "princess" like it's an insult. I can't stand him.

I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
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.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
The War God Alpha's Arranged Bride
Yet Alexander made his decision clear to the world: “Evelyn is the only woman I will ever marry.”
Accidentally Yours
Lola Marlowe’s morning-after is a disaster. She’s got a killer hangover, zero memory of Burning Man, and a half-naked, sculpted stranger tied to her bed with her own lavender silk ropes. To make matters infinitely worse, the furious (and frustratingly handsome) “accidental hostage” is Enzo Marchesi, Vegas’s most notorious mafia Don.
For Enzo, this is the ultimate security breach. But the fiery, unpredictable tattoo artist is the most intriguing thing to happen to him in years. To stop his crew from “neutralizing” the threat, he makes an impulsive claim: she’s his fiancée.

Invisible To Her Bully
Goddess Of The Underworld.

Peace lasts exactly one lullaby. This is the story of a border pup who became a goddess by choosing her family; of four imperfect alphas learning how to stay; of cake, iron, and daylight negotiations. Steamy, fierce, and full of heart, Goddess of the Underworld is a reverse harem, found-family paranormal romance where love writes the rules and keeps three realms from falling apart.
Crossing Lines
Noah
I was here to prove myself—
One last shot at football, at freedom, at a future no one ever thought I’d deserve.
And then I met him.
Coach Aiden Mercer.
Cold. Demanding. Built like a legend and twice as ruthless.
From the first command, I wanted to fight him.
From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.
But this wasn’t just about the game anymore.
He looked at me like he saw through every mask I wore…
And spoke to me in a voice I knew far too well.
The same one that called me baby boy in the darkest corners of the internet.
Now I didn’t know if I wanted to win…
Or just be his.
Aiden
Noah Blake was supposed to be a challenge.
A cocky, reckless quarterback with raw talent and no discipline.
But one message had changed everything.
One night on ObeyNet, a stranger with attitude and submission tangled in his words.
And when I saw Noah in person—his fire, his fear, that ache to be seen—
I knew it was him.
He didn’t know who I was. Not yet.
But I was already testing him. Pushing him.
Breaking him down until he begged for what he swore he didn’t need.
This was not supposed to get personal, but every second he disobeyed made me want to claim him harder.
And if he crossed the line…
I’d make damn sure he never forgot who he belonged to.

“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.

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.
Mated by Contract to the Alpha
William—my devastatingly handsome, wealthy werewolf fiancé destined to become Delta—was supposed to be mine forever. After five years together, I was ready to walk down the aisle and claim my happily ever after.
Instead, I found him with her. And their son.
Betrayed, jobless, and drowning in my father's medical bills, I hit rock bottom harder than I ever imagined possible. Just when I thought I'd lost everything, salvation came in the form of the most dangerous man I'd ever encountered.
Damien Sterling—future Alpha of the Silver Moon Shadow Pack and ruthless CEO of Sterling Group—slid a contract across his desk with predatory grace.
“Sign this, little doe, and I'll give you everything your heart desires. Wealth. Power. Revenge. But understand this—the moment you put pen to paper, you become mine. Body, soul, and everything in between.”
I should have run. Instead, I signed my name and sealed my fate.
Now I belong to the Alpha. And he's about to show me just how wild love can be.
