But fate had other plans, for both her and Lucian Thorne: a brutally composed CEO who didn't do random, had never been in a relationship, and was too focused on his businesses to find love. What started as chance run-ins turned into something they couldn't ignore. But how does a man built on control survive the kind of girl who blooms in chaos? ------------------------------------------------------------------ ""Her tipsy boldness kicked in hard, and walked for the armrest near him-planning to sit there casually.

"Careful, princess." he said, his voice low and smooth, just enough to make her blush harder. "Oops," she giggled, cheeks flaming. "I cant believe it's you Mr. Serious." "Still drunk, I see." And with that, Aurora's mind took off in full chatter mode."" ------------------------------------------------------------------ #1 SWEET #1 GRUMPY #1 CUTE #1 FUNNY #1 GRUMPYXSUNSHINE #1 RICHGUY #5 CEO

In the shadows of a world that has long forgotten monsters, the werewolf packs rule with blood and power. For centuries, the Moonbane Pack and the Crimson Daggers have waged a silent war-an endless dance of assassinations, betrayals, and border raids hidden beneath the skin of the modern world. When Ren, a silver-blooded Omega from the Crimson line, is captured during a failed infiltration, Alpha Kaito is expected to kill him without question. But Kaito doesn't. Instead, he locks Ren in chains and watches. Because something inside the feared Alpha-the infamous Black Beast of Moonbane-responds to the Omega's presence. Something ancient. Something dangerous. Ren is in heat. The bond starts to bloom. And neither of them can stop it. What begins as a cold act of defiance turns into obsession. Touch becomes hunger. Hunger becomes possession. And when Ren conceives a child that was never meant to exist, the fragile lie between enemy and mate begins to shatter. Now, with assassins closing in and old bloodlines clawing for vengeance, Ren and Kaito must decide what they're willing to sacrifice: Their pride? Their packs? Or each other. Dark, brutal, and intoxicating, this is a story of war-born love, unholy bonds, and a future written in silver blood. (Happy Ending & mpreg)
