"Why should I save you?"
His voice was calm, cruel—even as the fire raged below her.
"Because... I don't want to die," Emma choked, tears mixing with soot.
He smirked, lighting a cigarette. "Not my problem."
Betrayed by the only pack she ever called home, accused of killing the Alpha's mate, and left for dead, Emma—an abused, wolfless omega—finds herself at the mercy of Leo, the infamous Hybrid King. He saves her, but only after forcing her to agree to one thing:
"You're mine now. My Slave"
But ...

"Blackwood, stop,"" I gasped between kisses. ""You're not yourself."
He didn't seem to hear me. His fingers tangled in my hair as he pressed his body against mine. Despite my anger, I felt my resistance weakening. The makeup bottles scattered across the counter as he lifted me onto it.
"This is insane," I whispered, even as my arms betrayed me by wrapping around his neck.
His expensive cologne filled my senses as our bodies connected. His usually cold eyes were now dark with desire, unfocused...

"I don’t love you," I murmured.
He set his wine aside and stood up. Slowly, he closed the distance between us, gently touching my chin with his fingertips. His gaze lingered on my lips before locking with my eyes.
"I don’t love you either, Princess, and I have no intention to."
He said these words with complete coldness and sat back down, which enraged me.
"Then why fight in a tournament for my hand? Is it just because I’m a princess?" I shot back.
"You are a Lancaster Princess, a...

"I, Alpha Drake Collins Thaddeus, reject you, Layla Diana Montez, as my mate. You are nothing to me now—banished from this pack. Forever."
What would you do if the man you gave your heart,tossed you aside like yesterday's trash?
I gave Alpha Drake everything—my loyalty, my love, my body. I nearly died saving him. But when I needed him most, he turned cold, mocked my scars, and cast me out like I meant nothing.
Scarred. Wolfless. Pregnant.
I stumbled into Shadowsville Pack, broken and barely aliv...

My body pressed against Raymond's, my kisses stretching from his lips to his chin and throat.
He suddenly rolled over and pinned me underneath him, gripping my chin tightly. "You asked for it!" He growled, grabbing my lips and kissing me furiously.
I let out a playful whistle and trailed my fingers down his chest before deftly undoing his belt.
Raymond's breath was coming in quicker and quicker, his eyes locked on mine. "Damn it, Amelia, I'm going to fuck you"
But I wasn't there to fuck, I ...

"I do." ...

“Do it again.”
“Be more specific, baby.” I heard a smile in his words. He was enjoying this and wanted me to beg.
“Fuck you. You know what I mean.” I grunted in frustration.
“I actually don’t.” He stopped again. His rough hand remained between my thighs.

"You're playing a dangerous game, Ms. Rose."
His voice was low and threatening as he backed me against the office wall. I could feel the heat radiating from his body, especially from the erection pressing against me.
"I'm not playing any game," I whispered, ignoring my torn shirt and the exposed, heaving breasts, meeting those deep blue eyes. "You're the one who can't stay away."
His hand slammed against the wall beside my head, the other pinching my nipple. "Then tell me to stop."

I'm screwed.
If I want to keep my dream job, my new (and way-too-attractive-for-his-own-good) boss says I have to score an interview with one of the legendary Fontaine brothers of Hollywood.
I know three things about the Fontaine brothers:
1) that they're Hollywood royalty,
2) that all four of them are ridiculously, mind-numbingly sexy,
and
3) that they never, ever give interviews.
My only chance is to seduce one of them. The only problem? Historically speaking, I'm way more likely ...

Ash remembers.
And so does the throne buried beneath it.
The forest did not devour her. It bowed.
The flame did not die. It waited.
Until, in the silence between heartbeats, something older than gods whispered:
“She is not blessed. Sh...

“Before we get on with our business, there’s a bit of a paperwork you’d need to sign,” Damon said suddenly. He took out a piece of paper and pushed it towards Violet.
“What’s this?” she asked.
“A written agreement for the price of our sale,” Damon replied. He said it so calmly and so nonchalantly, like he wasn’t buying a girl’s virginity for one million dollars.
Violet swallowed hard and her eyes began to glaze over the words on that paper. The agreement was pretty self-explanatory. It bas...
