I sighed heavily as I scanned the forest. I had heard something or someone to be specific, wandering about. I decided I would leave once I affirmed they weren't a danger. "What are you doing in my land, human?" A deep enchanting voice spoke I sighed once again "I'm not human, just smell like one" I spoke as I turned around to see the most stunning man I have ever seen "Mate" he spoke "Find another female, Lycan" I spat He only growled at me in response. Men. My brother was the same way. It's kinda funny how all, correction, most shifter men think alike. I would've thought he would be different, after all, he is Lycan. Something of myths. But then again, so are the supernatural. I turned away from him, not even looking at him. I didn't want to remember what he looked like so I didn't give him a second glance. I heard him move closer. I quickly grabbed the knife out of my holster and threw it at a tree next to him. He stops moving then. "Heed my warning. It's the only one you'll get" I spoke coldly "I will find you. Then you will have no escape from me" he spoke as he backed away I could understand. Lycans, like lion-shifters, were going extinct. Therefore mates were even more important to them. But, even if I understood I still didn't want to be someone's mate. After all, I was Destiny Requalhi, Creator and Destructor of All. ------------------------------ Destiny Requalhi, a girl with a rough past and set in stone future. She wanted to be a normal lioness when she grew up but got so much more. She constantly is looking behind her back ready for a random attack to bestow itself upon her.

The Roseblood Clan. Three thousand years worth of magic cursing through their people's blood. Long before the Bennetts, before the Travellers, The Other Side and the Ancestors, there had been the Roseblood clan. Witches forged from the dying breath of a dragon in the centre of Scotland. The blood of the dragon was the legacy of their people. Yet, stories and history could be twisted by the victors of the many battles that had plagued the clan. A war between kin had destroyed the legacy of the Roseblood Clan. After a thousand years, their rule of magic had come to a halt. For over two thousand years, a story had been spun. The story of the evil siphoner. The abomination that had ruined their line. Yet, the truth loomed, threatening to reveal the true reason as to why siphoners existed. What their true purpose was. Were they abominations, the bastards of the magical world or were they meant to take power from those undeserving to ensure it was not misused? Only the victor of the battle gets to tell the tale. Athena Flora Roseblood was far from a victor. Being a firstborn Roseblood had cursed her like many others before her. Firstborn women in their line were not meant to meet their first breath of air, they were destined to die, to be sacrificed within the womb to help empower their coven, yet for the first time in two thousand years, a firstborn woman had come screaming into the world. Athena was never been meant to be born. Her blood haunted her from the second she took her first breath, her house divided thanks to thousands of years of lies. Lies that may never come to the light of day. Fear was a powerful totem and after two thousand years of lies, it left Athena trapped within the cage created for her. The abomination, the bastard of nature, the Roseblood Siphoner. Nothing to the world but a mistake and a monster.

Jane Blackridge has no illusions about herself. She knows herself to be no great beauty, yet she possesses what Society too often undervalues: a sharp mind, an observant eye, and a tongue inclined toward wit rather than flattery. Content to remain in the shadow of prettier debutantes, Jane intends only to endure her first Season with dignity intact. Nathaniel Ashworth, heir to the Marquess of Worthington, has never known what it is to be overlooked. Handsome, charming, and assured of his place in society, he moves through ballrooms with effortless grace, the object of admiration from every quarter. Yet beneath the polish lies the constant weight of expectation-the heir, the model son, the man who must never falter. When his attention falls upon the unassuming Miss Blackridge, no one is more surprised than Jane herself. Her calm indifference unsettles him, her quiet humor disarms him, and soon Nathaniel finds himself drawn to the one woman who refuses to be dazzled. What begins as sport becomes something far more dangerous: a contest of pride and perception, where one risks his heart, and the other, her trust. But when the truth behind his courtship comes to light, Jane's trust is shattered - and Nathaniel must decide whether to defy society's expectations, or to lay himself bare for the for the only woman who ever saw him clearly. To Woo a Duchess is a Regency tale of sharp minds, subtle flirtation, and the unexpected power of seeing - and being seen - for who you truly are. COMPLETE

She has no idea that the quiet, broken child she's nursing back to life is the missing heir of Sergei Mikhailov, a ruthless Russian mafia don with a blood-soaked past and billions at his command. As Amara and little Nikolai form an unbreakable bond, Sergei's desperate search leads him straight to her door-and to a woman whose strength, warmth, and unapologetic grace challenge everything he thought he knew about power and love. But the past is never far behind. As danger creeps closer and secrets unravel, Amara and Sergei must confront the darkness threatening their fragile new world. What begins as protection becomes devotion, and what starts in survival ignites into something neither of them expected: a love powerful enough to rewrite their futures.

Zahara Blackwell was destined for greatness-or so she thought. As the first-born daughter of the esteemed Alpha and Luna of the Silver Hollow Pack, and a powerful Black female werewolf, she spent her whole life preparing for the moment the Moon Goddess would reveal her fated mate. But fate, it seems, had a cruel sense of humor. On the night of her 21st birthday, Zahara's world shatters when her fated mate is revealed to be none other than her childhood crush, Alpha Kieran Vale-strong, revered, and the man she'd secretly dreamed of loving. Instead of joy, she's met with betrayal: Kieran publicly rejects her in front of the entire pack, scoffing at the idea of her as his Luna. And in a twist of the knife, he turns and claims her younger sister, Seraphina-the delicate, soft-spoken "golden girl" of the family-as his chosen mate. Humiliated and heartbroken, Zahara is pushed to the edge. When she dares to stand up for herself, her parents-more concerned with reputation than justice-condemn her for "jealousy" and "disrupting the pack's harmony." With no one to turn to, Zahara rejects her title, her family, and her pack, becoming a rogue in the dead of night. For months, she survives on instinct and raw power, until she's found half-starved and injured at the border of the powerful Nightfang Pack. There, she meets Alpha Lucien Graves-a tall, battle-scarred warrior with haunted eyes and an aura of silent strength. He offers her sanctuary, not sympathy, and Zahara finds herself slowly healing under his quiet protection. As trust grows and sparks ignite, Zahara begins to imagine a future where she is truly seen, loved, and chosen-not because of duty or status, but because of who she is. But just when her new life begins to flourish, her past returns. RANKINGS: #1 in Fated Mates

Adam never believed in magic until the night he saved a woman with wings. Wandering through the forest, he stumbles upon Lysandra, a breathtaking fairy with silver-lit wings, wounded and barely conscious. Against all logic, he takes her home, unaware that he's just entangled himself in a world he was never meant to know. Lysandra is a creature of light and enchantment, bound to a realm where humans are nothing more than a fleeting myth. She knows she should leave, disappear before the fairy court realizes she's broken their most sacred rule-revealing herself to a human. But something about Adam keeps her from flying away. He's kind, protective, and his touch ignites a warmth she's never known before. As Adam helps her heal, a forbidden love blossoms between them. He shows her the beauty of the human world-sunrises over the ocean, music that stirs the soul, and love that isn't bound by magic but by choice. And Lysandra? She makes Adam believe in the impossible. But the fairy realm does not forgive those who break its laws. When Lysandra's people discover her secret, she's given a choice-return to her world and erase all memories of the man she loves, or risk everything to be with him. Will they find a way to bridge the impossible gap between their worlds? Or will fate tear them apart before they even have a chance?
