Trinity (A Werewolf Novel) ✔ by CaitSarai

[Completed] Every Wolf Moon, humans are selected from each village to be sacrificed to the werewolves; creatures worshipped by humans as godlike figures. In a twist of fate, seventeen year old Mila Young is selected to be the annual sacrifice for the Trinity pack, the most powerful pack ruled by King Alpha Roman Stone. Alpha Roman and all werewolves under his rule are cursed. His hatred for the humans and his war on the deity Moon Goddesses has caused his kind to lose the favor of their blessings. However, when Mila reveals herself to have a connection to the werewolves unlike anything a human has ever had before, it becomes apparent that she may be the key to ending the suffering of Roman and his wolves... if only he can overcome the lifelong hatred that clouds his mind and darkens his heart. Excerpt: "You smell like wolf," The King Alpha declared, his voice low and angry. "I killed one," I both explained the smell and threatened at the same time. "And you think you can kill me? You think you can take my pack?" I glanced around at all the lycans still in their wolf forms, bowing obediently towards me. Could I take all of them on? I doubted it. I didn't even think I'd get this far. I didn't even know what was going on. When I turned back to the King Alpha, he was significantly closer. "Stay back!" I cried out in fear. The power flared within me once more, lifting whimpers from around me. The King Alpha hesitated again, his eyes skating over me with confusion. He took a deep breath, sniffing the air around me as he hadn't yet gotten any closer. "You smell like... my mate." {{Warning: Some scenes may be unsuitable for audiences below the age of 15 and offensive to those of all ages. Read at your own risk.}} Rankings: #1 in Lycans #1 in wolf

The Curse Of The Raven's Rune: Shadow Of The Bloodline by skyetebelle

Beneath the bombs of the Blitz, a hidden war rages in the shadows. Elara Quinn, a spirited young witch with a bloodline cursed by ancient magic, never asked to be the key to a prophecy older than the city itself. Raised on the fringes of London's gritty East End, where her father's gangster dealings kept their family afloat, Elara hides her gifts-until visions of a rising darkness thrust her into a battle she can't escape. When a fateful encounter with Rael, a mysterious half-werewolf with a dangerous past, pulls her deeper into the supernatural underworld, Elara discovers a forgotten relic: the Raven's Rune. It holds the power to save the world-or destroy it. As the Patron, a shadowy entity from her family's cursed past, hunts her relentlessly, Elara must navigate a city crumbling under the Blitz, untangle the secrets of her bloodline, and confront her growing feelings for Rael. But the deeper she delves into the rune's power, the more she realizes that destiny is a blade that cuts both ways. In a world where trust is fleeting, love is perilous, and enemies lurk in every shadow, Elara must decide how far she's willing to go to protect the people she loves-and whether she can outrun the curse in her veins.

The True Luna : Reborn by Raven-l

---- 🐺 The True Luna: Reborn > I was born under a blood moon, into a name that carried weight - whispered through generations like prophecy. Moon. Sacred. Feared. Expected to rise. But the wolf inside me never woke. No shift. No howl. Just silence... and shame. When the mate bond snapped into place, I felt hope bloom - sharp, trembling, dangerous. Then he looked at me. And chose someone else. Not because I was unworthy... But because I terrified him. I left it all behind. The pack. The promise. The broken destiny. I buried the girl they wanted and became something else. A shadow in the human world. A woman with ink-stained fingers and secrets in her eyes. I don't need a mate. I don't crave power. But darkness... darkness has always known my name. Then he appeared. Prince Damien Knight Walker. Lycan royalty. A predator cloaked in silk and war. He touched me with his eyes first - like he was peeling back my skin. He says I belong to him. But I am not his to tame. There's something dangerous inside me now. Something ancient. Hungry. Awake. Let the kingdoms tremble. I'm Arielle Moon. And I wasn't reborn to be someone's Luna. I was reborn to burn thrones. ---

The Werewolf Heirs by Bi_jou11

The royal line of werewolves was on the verge of extinction, their ancient bloodline weakening with each passing generation. For centuries, the werewolf gene had been the mark of their power and prestige, but now it was a fading ember. King Theron and Queen Elara, desperate to save their legacy, prayed for a miracle. Their people, once fierce and proud, were becoming little more than human-their legendary strength and healing now just myths whispered in the dark. The couple's hopes rested on an heir, a child who could restore their family's lost glory and prevent their legacy from being greedily seized by others. But what they did not know was that their lineage was more complex than any of them could have ever imagined, and the salvation of their kind would come at an unexpected price.

The Vampire And Her Wolf by _dil_ki_bonditha

In a world where immortals walk among mortals and the line between predator and protector blurs, love is both a gift and a curse. The Vampire And Her Wolf tells the tale of Elara, an ancient vampire whose heart has been frozen by centuries of grief, haunted by the memory of a love lost to time. Her solitary existence is disrupted when destiny brings Liam, a young and awakening Alpha, into her shadowed life. Bound by prophecy yet guided by instinct, Liam is no mere echo of the past-he is a force of nature, a wolf whose raw power and protective spirit challenge Elara's carefully guarded heart. As centuries of sorrow confront the fire of a new bond, their connection becomes a delicate dance of trust, desire, and the courage to embrace the unknown. This is a story of love that defies boundaries, of a vampire and a wolf whose worlds collide and intertwine, where ancient rivalries are tested, and hearts must learn to open despite the scars of eternity. In the end, it is not the prophecy alone, but the choices they make, that will define their fate-and the fate of all who dwell in the shadowed realms of night.
