Too nervous?" He sent a smirk my way, hinting to his previous statement. His comment sparked my stubborn side which only added to my desire. With a small intake of air I sat down on his lap. "No." I met his eyes. My answer was clearly a lie and he knew it. "Really?" He dared. I went to reply but then his hand landed on my neck, cupping it with just enough pressure to probably leave a red mark. It made my stomach clench. I lost all train of thought the second he did it. He hummed at my lack of response. His grip on my neck relaxed slightly but he didn't let go. His eyes dropped to my lips and I remembered what it felt like when he kissed me. They tingled with anticipation. He pulled me down closer to him so that my mouth was nearly on his. "Kiss me." He ordered lowly.

Aubrey's gold skin brands her a living, breathing treasure-and she hates it. High nobles covet Golds like her as trophy wives, while monstrous wyverns hunt her kind to fuel their fiery breath. Kept locked away and ruthlessly groomed by her stepmother to be the perfect bride, Aubrey finally gets her chance at freedom when the Crown Prince announces he's seeking a wife. Only a high nobleman's power can tear her late-father's estate from her stepmother's greedy clutches, so Aubrey dons the loathsome gold-revealing gown and charges into high society-sights set on the Prince. Until rebels ambush her carriage. She expects to be kidnapped and bled for a fortune-gold blood like hers fetches a fantastic price-but the enigmatic rebel leader, Abel, has more cunning plans. Worse yet, each time Abel swaggers across her path, the tingles down her spine remind her: only he looks at her like she's a person, not a purchase. But only high nobility possess the specialized armor to protect her from wyverns. Entice the Prince to marry her... or become fuel to monsters. Then again, maybe her cruel kingdom deserves to burn-and she can spark the blaze. If Netflix's Bridgerton had dragons...

**Enemies-to-Lovers | Forced Bond | Dual POV | Slow Burn with Fast Consequences** --- The bond was the trap. Love will be the kill. Cassian and Reena are shackled together by a forced mate bond, ritual, not fate, and they're both bleeding from it. He's an Alpha who controls everything except the way his wolf whines for her like something starved. She's a Luna by decree who'd rather face silver than face what he makes her feel. They're poison in each other's veins, predator and prey trading places every night, and they can't stop drinking. He'd rather bleed out than admit he needs her. She'd rather burn alive than let him know she's breaking. Between vicious arguments and the kind of tension that feels like teeth at your throat, something shifts. Hate is an exhausting performance when you're breathing the same air, when her scent is on your sheets, when her heartbeat syncs to yours in the dark. Resentment twists into obsession. Hostility bleeds into hunger. And the person you swore to keep at arm's length becomes the only one who sees the beast beneath your skin and doesn't flinch. They weren't supposed to want each other's ruin. They weren't supposed to want each other at all. But wolves mate for life, even when the bond is man-made. Even when love feels like drowning. When the connection they tried to deny becomes the only thing that feels real, they'll either destroy each other or discover that some bonds are stronger than fate. The pack believes in fated mates blessed by the Moon. Cassian and Reena are building something the Moon never planned for. Something forged in fury. Something that might just be stronger because of it. --- One forced bond. Two feral hearts. Two wolves who were never meant to run together, learning to hunt as one. --- For readers who want their werewolves feral, their romance earned through blood and fire, and their happy endings hard-won.

Elara Ward thought monsters belonged in storybooks. That fate was just a word. That her life would be ordinary. She was wrong. When her best friend drags her to an extravagant midnight ball, Elara believes it's just another elite social event-she has no idea the gathering is meant for one purpose: To present supernatural maidens to the Vampire King so he can find his fated mate. Humans are forbidden. She's not supposed to be there. But destiny doesn't care. The moment King Kael Draven sees her-wide-eyed, human, and completely unaware of the danger around her-something impossible happens. A burning crimson mark ignites on her skin the instant he touches her. His mate. His queen. A human. The court erupts in whispers. Power shifts. Centuries of tradition fracture. The bond between them grows with every stolen glance, every heated argument, every moment his control slips and desire breaks through. But loving a king born of darkness comes with a cost... Jealous nobles lurk behind silk masks. Ancient laws are broken by her very presence. And someone in Kael's inner circle would kill to keep a human from wearing the crown. She never believed in destiny- until the Vampire King marked her as his.

But ancient prophecies are stirring, and the elemental kings are more volatile than ever. To keep their grip on power, they need the cooperation of the King of Ash. Damien, however, has no intention of obeying. Revenge still burns in him hotter than any flame. A flame that the death of the previous King of Ash never extinguished. He would relish in tearing all three kings down, kingdom by kingdom, bone by bone. He is impossible to control, a man of many masks. A man who couldn't care less about consequences. That is, unless someone discovers his one fatal vulnerability. The bond that haunts him... and the one weapon capable of bringing the King of Ash to his knees.
