Raised to wield the blade against him. Crowned to stand beside him. A forced marriage. A shattered kingdom. A love written in blood. Princess Celeste was raised to kill Crown Prince Cassian-the enemy heir who razed her homeland and signed her fate in fire. To preserve the fragile peace between their war-torn nations, she's forced to marry the very boy she was trained to destroy. But Cassian isn't the cold monster she imagined. And Celeste... she isn't just a pawn in their game of thrones. Beneath her poised silence lies a deadly secret: ancient, forbidden magic that could tip the scales of power-or burn everything to ash. As old wounds resurface and buried truths begin to rise, the thin line between duty and desire begins to blur. Cassian and Celeste must navigate palace intrigue, political betrayal, and their own dangerous attraction, all while enemies gather in the shadows-and war threatens to return. He was her enemy. She was his downfall. Together, they might be the end-or the beginning-of everything.

Would she be able to protect them? Would the bonds of brotherhood among the kings withstand the storm brewing on the horizon? Fay was about to learn that sometimes, the greatest battles are fought not just with spells and swords, but within the heart itself.

People avoided her, whispering about her strange appearance, while she was constantly told to suppress her true nature.

The Hunters want her power. The Alphas want her heart. Valpine just wants to vanish. For years, Valpine has lived by a single, blood-chilled rule: Stay hidden. As a White Fox shifter-a mythic rarity thought to be extinct-she is the ultimate prize for Hunters who would drain her magic until there is nothing left but ash. She thought a low-profile job in a shifter-owned skyscraper would be her sanctuary. She was wrong. Max, the golden Lion with a dominance that demands submission, and Benji, the gentle Bear who offers a warmth she's never known, saw through her human mask the moment she arrived. But their protection comes with a price: a bond that pulls at her soul and a spotlight that threatens her safety. Just as the walls of her secrets begin to crumble, the arrival of two strangers shatters her fragile peace. Alexander, a Wolf with a past forged in blood and silence, and Falkor, a Dragon whose predatory charisma is as terrifying as it is intoxicating. With the Hunters closing in and her mates divided by ancient loyalties, Valpine is caught in a lethal paradox. To survive, she must stop running from the monsters and realize she is the most dangerous thing in the room. The fox is tired of hiding. It's time to bite back.

When Belle is sent as a sacrifice to the castle of monsters, she expects to die. Instead, she becomes entangled in a curse that binds her to three fearsome yet alluring brothers-each cursed to take the form of a beast. Theron, the ruthless ruler, sees her as nothing more than a tool to break their curse. Cassian, the golden-haired rogue, hides his pain behind charm and temptation. And Dante, the silent protector, watches her with eyes that speak of both hunger and sorrow. As Belle unravels the castle's secrets, she realizes the curse is far more sinister than she was told. The beasts are not the only ones trapped-she is bound to their fate in ways she never imagined. With danger closing in and passion igniting between her and the three monstrous brothers, Belle must make an impossible choice: save them and risk her soul, or break free and doom them all. A dark fantasy romance filled with forbidden desire, deadly secrets, and the slow-burning pull of a love that defies fate. *Cursed by Beasts* is a reverse harem retelling of *Beauty and the Beast* with a haunting twist.

Aurora Valenstar has become both salvation and curse - the last bloom of a kingdom built on stolen dawns. Her blood carries the seed of renewal, yet her heart bears the mark of ruin. Bound to the Shadow-Crowned King by fate and fire, she must choose whether to save the world that betrayed her or the monster who might still be its only hope. Love becomes a weapon. Mercy, a death sentence. And every truth she uncovers unravels the last threads of who she once was. In the depths of the Shadowlands, Killian Varyn faces the prophecy he's long denied: that to heal the dying realm, he must destroy the one soul tethered to his own. But even monsters can tremble when the light they feared begins to reach for them. When gods return to reclaim what was theirs, he will learn that the line between devotion and damnation is drawn in her blood. As Lumeris crumbles and the Veil cracks, blood will turn against blood, the skies will burn, and the last crown will fall not with a roar - but with a whisper. For in this final reckoning, life will only bloom through ruin, and the end will come not in shadow... but in light too bright to survive. Fate cannot be rewritten. It can only be fulfilled. And when the last petal falls, even the gods will kneel.
