"Look at me properly and try to remember." He implored her, his silvery eyes boring into hers. Maya raised her nervous eyes to meet his. Searching her head, she tried to remember where she may have met this man before. As she stared at him, a sense of familiarity began to settle. Those eyes... she'd seen them before. Where has she seen them? One by one, the images came. The pictures from a time she had forgotten. She had helped someone with eyes just like this. Still in his embrace, a daunting realisation began to set in. She'd met this man before. Long before he even dreamed of being a king... **************** A tyrant king conquers a kingdom so he can get married to her forgotten princess.

Make sure you read *The Stag Belt: Prologue of Crimes and Passion* first! Welcome to the Stag Belt where you will learn what the Hunt Requires. As the Reaping looms and alliances threaten to fracture, Eden is faced with an impossible truth: peace will demand a body. And hers is the most valuable one left to give. So she chooses it. Not because she is obedient. Not because she believes in the system. But because she knows what happens when no one steps forward. In the Stag Belt, sacrifice is glorified, passion is policed, and survival is never free. Eden's choice will change everything-for her family, her people, and the worlds watching her walk willingly into a fate she understands far better than anyone else ever will. What the Hunt Requires is a dark, emotionally intimate sci-fi romance about duty, loss, and the devastating clarity of choosing others over yourself-and becoming something powerful in the process. Born on Station 401, Eden Rook was raised on obedience, order, and sacrifice. When the colony fell, her parents struck a deal to ensure humanity's survival-offering their daughter to the Zephyrenian Houses as a Tdori, a surrogate chosen to bear the heirs of the ruling stags. Now, she's being prepared for the Reaping, a ceremony where females are bound to their Zephyrenian matches. Eden finds herself trapped between two stags whose rivalry could ignite a war...and whose bond could destroy her. As the Great Hunt approaches, and whispers of rebellion rise from the underbelly of the Hive, Eden must choose between submission and defiance-between the future her parents sold her for, and the freedom she's willing to fight for. Power. Passion. Betrayal. On Zephyros, nothing is freely given-and every choice demands a sacrifice. Please note that this is MFM.

The Stag Belt: What the Season Demands - Book II: Vhal'keer Peace was never meant to come easy. Eight weeks after the crash landing of Station 401, Vi and Ryhos are learning what it means to build a life on Veythra-raising their son, Solin, and trying to bridge the fragile divide between human and Veytharian. But not everyone believes a halfbreed should wear the crown of Vhal'keer. As the humans integrate into the Kaelen Clan, old wounds and older hatreds rise to the surface. Whispers turn to unrest. And among those who long for the old ways, there are some who would see Ryhos replaced. Together, Vi and Ryhos must protect what they've built- their family, their people, and the fragile hope of peace- before the world they've fought to save tears itself apart.

Mae thought she had it all figured out-a fiancé, a future, a plan. Until she walked in on her fiancé in bed with another woman the night before their wedding. Now, three months later, she's looking for a distraction that comes in the form of the town's bad boy and her best friend. Trey's been Mae's best friend since forever. Steady. Loyal. A little rough around the edges but always on her side. He's the guy who shows up with a wrench or whiskey depending on the day. But lately, the way he looks at her feels different. Hotter. Hungrier. And more dangerous than anything she's ready for. One night. That's what Mae agreed to. But for Trey, one night isn't going to be enough.

Book One in the Stag Belt Series Survival demands submission. Instinct demands more. Revina thought landing her first field mission days after graduation was a dream come true-until she learned the catch. She's been sent to the untamed planet of Veythra, a place of dangerous nomadic clans and uncharted lands. The reason she was chosen? Rhyos. Her best friend. Her protector. A half-human, half-Veythrian hybrid who has never set foot on his father's homeland. But the moment they land, everything changes. It's the sacred breeding season. The clans are restless. The males are on edge. And Rhyos-the one person she's always trusted-is changing. His instincts are awakening, his control slipping. Worse, the price of protection among the clans is her participation in their sacred rite. His claim is the only thing standing between her and the others. Because the warriors see her as a prize. A foreign beauty. A fertile offering. And if Rhyos doesn't stake his claim? They will.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

Lily Breighton will do anything to save her dying father. Even trespass in forbidden werewolf territory to find a legendary healing flower. But when she's caught by the territory's cursed alpha, she strikes a dangerous bargain: one year as his pack's healer in exchange for the cure. As Lily works to ease the pack's suffering, the line between healer and patient begins to blur, and she discovers that breaking a blood curse might cost her more than just her freedom-it might cost her heart.

Taliyah's beloved, Cephias, may be able to turn into a fierce dragon, but that won't help him navigate the human world. She must escort him across multiple kingdoms in time to save his people from the brutal rival that's stolen Cephias's home, all while fighting to keep the spark of their desire from burning out. Season 2 of Treasured by the Dragon *** Princess Taliyah never expected to fall in love with Cephias, the dragon shifter she was sacrificed to. Nor did she ever think there'd be a greater threat than the beasts she was raised to hate. However, Irving, a rival dragon, threatens to enslave the realm. And though both Taliyah and Cephias fought valiantly against him, Irving still gravely wounded Cephias's wing, which left them stranded far from home. Irving is still out there and time may be running out for Cephias's clan. With Cephias unable to fly, it is now up to Taliyah to lead him through the complexities of human society. And despite their clear path forward, trials keep pulling them off course. Taliyah hopes a knight from her past can help tip the scales, but is it worth the fierce jealousy it ignites in Cephias? Can she prove her devotion to him? Or will the pressure fracture the fragile love she so recently found?

I never thought I'd be noticed-let alone his. One moment, I stood among the crowd, my fate a dark pit. Next, the cavernous hall froze, Zypherians and humans alike holding their breath as he emerged from the shadows: the Admiral, golden eyes burning, moving with fatal purpose. He didn't stop at protocol. He didn't stop at the fear in my chest. The Matrix itself shuddered, surrendering to a new law. In that instant, I was no one. I was someone. And I was his, forced to accept a destiny I can neither refuse nor understand. I should have run. Instead, I stood-caught between terror and the quiet, impossible pull of the one monster who had unmade the rules, just to choose me.
