Help him!? Help the prince of the kingdom that locked me up? Joining that man is the second last thing I want to do. The very last thing is to go back to the cell they've held me in for years.

What the prince doesn't know is that I made a vow - a vow to never harm anyone with my curse again. I agree to his bargain, but I must escape his grasp before I'm expected to fulfill my end. But escape isn't easy when the prince refuses to take his eyes off me. He's the first man to see beyond my curse, to see the girl beneath who just wants to belong. With time, I too learn to see past his frightening uniform and prestigious titles. My heart aches over the secrets I'm forced to keep from him, secrets that will bring his whole world crashing down.

He rejected her in front of the entire pack. When the mate bond snapped into place in a Wyoming high school hallway, Wren thought fate had finally chosen her. Instead, Lucas Blackthorne-the ruthless future alpha every wolf feared and every girl wanted-humiliated her, rejected her, and warned her never to come back. So she left. Eight years later, Wren has built a new life in Chicago as a homicide detective, far from pack politics, old scars, and the mate who shattered her. But when her brother goes missing and someone starts hunting the alpha of her former pack, she's forced to return to the one place she swore she'd never see again. And to the male who never truly let her go. Lucas may have rejected her, but he never forgot her. Now the bond between them is as brutal as the secrets closing in, and as enemies circle closer, Wren finds herself trapped between the mate who broke her and the danger threatening them both. Because this time, Lucas isn't letting her run. And this time, he'll have to beg for the second chance he never deserved.

Werewolves have lived in pure secret for centuries. . . until the secret breaks. And for werewolf-in-hiding Lia Deliz, it may just be the end of the world. *** The line started moving and I could feel myself growing increasingly anxious. Green light after green light, there was only one more person in front of me and it was my best friend. It didn't take long for the next two stations to open up and we slowly made our way over together. "Name?" The doctor asked monotonously. She had probably done hundreds of these tests today and nothing had changed. My heart was racing as I tried to breathe calmly, "Lia Deliz." She crossed my name off the list and barely even looked at me. "Please hold out your left arm so I can draw some blood." I obeyed. Everything happened in slow motion. She dabbed an alcohol wipe on my skin, inserted the tiny needle for four seconds, and placed it into the machine to read my blood. Please don't do this. Please don't work. My worst nightmare was happening right before me and I couldn't do anything to stop it. Everyone was watching, everyone would see what I really was. The light flashed red. "Miss Deliz?" The doctor's voice shook but I already knew what she was going to say, "It's positive." *** 4th in series | can be read as a standalone

Moving in with my uncle Charlie after my dad died wasn't the plan, but neither was becoming Forks' unofficial emotional support human. I had: - One overprotective police chief as a guardian - One cousin (Bella) who collected red flags like hobbies - Jacob Black basically glued to my hip - A sarcastic mouth I couldn't turn off - And a talent for attracting supernatural drama I didn't ask for Enter: Paul Lahote. Six feet of anger issues, impossible abs, and the kind of stare that feels illegal. He saw me once and decided "Yep, that one." Apparently wolves imprint now. Cute. Meanwhile, Edward Cullen keeps trying to annoy me into insanity, Bella is living her best vampire-adjacent pick-me era, and I'm stuck in the middle trying to pass senior year without being eaten. This is not Bella's story. This is mine. And trust me-Forks should've warned me before I caught a wolf's eye.

Ice flooded my veins as the realization of who he was hit me. It must have been evident on my face because the man in front of me let out a dark laugh. "Oh dear, you didn't realize you were talking to a royal, did you darling?" he crooned. Not just any royal. Kesserian Cinis. The recently coronated king and ruler over the Ember Court. I forgot how to breathe, my mind whirring as it tried to figure out how I could have been so stupid as to let this happen. *************************************************** Wren Heatherfield is on the run. Having turned 18, she is now in danger of becoming selected for the Garner, a deadly game in which the six kings who rule over her continent take eighteen non-magical girls and make them fight for their lives. But as she tries to avoid the game by running away with her best friend and her sister, she consequently finds herself doomed to be a competitor in the 246th Garner. But the Garner isn't the only thing capable of killing her. In a castle surrounded by kings with dark powers and girls fighting for their lives, she may find that the politics of royalty can be just as deadly as their games. No one can be trusted in a palace full of monsters and, if Wren has any hopes of survival, she may have to become one herself.
