"I don't want you to mark me" I said quickly. "Why?" he asked me, his tone seemed calm but i knew he was far from it. "I have a commitment towards my pack" I told him, hoping he'll understand but to my astonishment his eyes were dark now and he held his palms in a tight fist. "You are my mate Templar, you belong to my pack" he said in a condescending tone. My blood boiled at the tone he was using with me. Nobody talks to me like that. Nobody. "Do not use that tone with me, Everett. You are not my Alpha, I respond to-" none, i was about to say, but had to bite my tongue to change that. I was not ready to tell him that I'm the sole White Shifter, not ready to tell him I'm The Alpha of my pack. So i lied, again.

O, the name which threatens every shifter in the country. No one has ever actually seen O, whose victims are always the Alpha's. The pack wolves despise him while the rogues adore this killer. Duncan Rhoades, new Alpha of the Emperor pack is on a hunt. Having sworn to take revenge for his father's death he wants to hunt, torture and kill this mysterious murderer O. He had perfectly planned his hunt when he had set foot on the Supreme Pack where O has been currently taking refuge. But there was one unexpected glitch in his perfect plan. He had never hoped to find Seline, his mate, who he thinks is O's sister.

[COMPLETED!] (Sequel to How to be a Queen) Aerith and Hades already have their fairytale ending. They've also been blessed with twins: Aidon and Aurea. I'm Aurea by the way and this is my story. When I was born, the Fates declared that me and my brother will live a difficult life. And I guess they were right for we were both born with no powers. We were two new immortals who cannot be a god and a goddess for we had no powers. Is this a curse? Nah. Maybe we were just born this way or maybe we were just late bloomers? I sure hope so. Oh, one more thing. When my brother and I turned eighteen, the Three Fates came to our party and allowed us each a question. Being a naive little girl, I asked. "Who will I share eternity with?" They answered with: "You are meant for death." Well what did they mean with that? Am I meant to die? Will I ever get my powers? Will I ever find someone who'll love me? Will I get the fairytale ending my parents have? ***Credits to @DarkLeague for the cover***

"You don't want a mate and neither do I. So for the sake of our wolves, let's just complete the mating process and part away like... friends?" Quillon said and I stared at him in disbelief. Isn't he supposed to be my 'Soul mate?' And is this what soul mates say? "Friends?" I said grinding my teeth together. "You make this outrageous proposal and expect me to be friends with you?" I questioned incredulously. "Right now, I feel so friendly towards you that if you drop dead, then I would dance on your corpse." "Fine" he shrugged. "Your loss." "Oh don't worry! I can find someone way better than you" I launched furiously. Quillon might be good-looking but he is also a major A-hole! "Think it's that easy, Darya?" he queried cocking one perfect brow and I glared at him. "Let me see you try." **** Darya Kenrick, an Alpha's sister, has been playing Russian roulette with her life ever since she shifted for the first time.
