Persephone's whole life revolved around obeying her father's wishes. She had everything planned out by her father, who was going to marry her off to the leader of any gang he deemed suitable for an alliance. The thought of escaping her life of crime never entered her mind until she came across Cain Anderson, the Alpha of the Asphodel Pack, chained up in the cell room of her father's gang, The Crows.

Excerpt:
His eyelids flutter and he licks his cracked lips, a movement my eyes linger on. He looks around and for a second, confusion flashes across his face before he plasters on a mask of indifference. His muscles flex to no avail as he fights against his restraints. A hissing sound fills the air and the stench of burning flesh encases the room, a smell I wish I was unfamiliar with.

And my heart clenches as his dark gaze meets mine.

His eyes are blue. A cold, despairing blue I can't look away from. And I wonder if he knows that he is beautiful.

Nova has been tortured and held captive by vampires for as long as she can remember. But one night a man shows up and buys her, bringing her back to his pack. She tries to fight everyone away but slowly she begins to fall for the green eyed stranger. Caine is the alpha of the darkmoon pack and has spent his time as a lone leader since his mate was killed. But one night he is in a club miles away from his territory when a young girl catches his eye and ear. When his wolf cries out for her he has no choice but to bring her back with him. He tries to keep his distance but he is drawn to her and can't seem to keep his distance. ~~~~~ "This is the correct girl if I'm not mistaken. Are you sure Miss Heller is the girl you wanted?" I frowned and stood awkwardly, tugging my dress skirt down slightly and shifting as the two other men skimmed their eyes over me. A growl was heard and they both snapped their eyes away. "$3000 was the price I offered but I'm happy for the price to be more if you wish. Now if we are finished my men will get the money for you now and I'll take the girl." I looked at the men and quickly realised what was happening. He was selling me like some kind of object. I growled and ran for the door, pulling at it hard but it didnt budge. I turned to see them all looking at me as my eyes surveyed the room. I ran for the window but a hand grabbed my wrist. "Fiesty little firecracker you got there. But shes also trouble which means she aint worth more then $3000 so take the price or leave it." I pulled but Mr Bloodmon dragged me to the green eyed man and shook his hand. I growled and went to bite him but he gabbed my shoulder and dug his claws in. I whimpered as he shoved me towards the exit.

**Its here! ** "I know you're incapable of love," Dimitri laughed darkly. "But you're my Luna, my half, my life source, and you'll respect me, even if I have to break you apart." "Shut up," I said, for like what sounded like the tenth time. "Oh I'll shut up," he chuckled, grabbing the back of my head and cupping my cheek, softly, very softly, kissing my lips. I stood, wide-eyed, confused, not moving a muscle. Warmth. Not the burning warmth of summer, or the coldness of winter, but the warmth of autumn. The warmth of cuddling. The warmth of pureness and caring tenderness. Soft lips, very soft, softer than cotton candy, but tasty, red and full like plum fruit. Oh so sweet, so evil, so wrong. So good. Our tongues danced slow, thrusting and caressing- wrong, so wrong. It was good, but it made me feel nothing. I was going to pull away, but I thought better. I grabbed my dagger, and quickly, shoved it into his chest. He stopped, and pulled away, looking down at the silver dagger deep into his chest cavity. Then he looked at me, he almost looked surprised. I pulled the dagger out of his chest, cleaning the blood off of it against my sleeve. "That was hot," I laughed, pecking him on the lips again. I shoved my fingers into his wound, just so I could say I had the Alpha's blood in my hands, like he would've had mine. "I am Lilith," I reminded him, feeling the inhumane warmth of his skin turn into a fever, silver tainted in poisonous wolfsbane spreading through every bloodstream. "Do not forget," I whispered. cover by LunaBooks1403

patreon.com/user?u=78988691 Emily is a healer within the Blue Stone Pack, Cain is Alpha of the Fire Crest Pack. They met two years ago by the hand of fate and now are nothing but a distant memory to both. Loss and trickery clouds the judgment of both and leaves their relationship in a spiral fighting to be tamed. A she wolf with an innately kind demeanor and a confident alpha male with an instant disliking and mistrust for anyone come together in this tale of love and I can assure you it doesn't happen overnight. Love is a journey that we all shall take part in, aware or unaware of the fact, these two will grow together and as individuals. ------------------------ "You will be the Luna to my pack, that is a given, but understand; we will not be sharing a room now or in the future, we will only be sexually active for the sake of making pups, you are to be marked within the week and also introduced to the pack, you must also memorize our pack rules as some may be slightly different form your last pack, we will hold hands in public on special occasions but not often and any form of PDA is prohibited." He pulled out a paper and placed it in front of me. "If you understand sign below." I stared at the paper in front of me gathering all that my mate had said. This felt like a business deal. "What if I do not agree to these terms?" Cain's face hardened and I could see his form shake slightly as he fought back a growl, anger pulsed through our weak bond. "Then we cannot be mates and I will send you away from me, we will never meet again." I stared at the man in front of me and took no more than two seconds before picking up the elegant black pen stationed in a fancy cup holder on his desk and signed my name quickly on the required portions of the document in front of me. Once the pen lifted from the page Cain took the paper from me and signed below my own name as a witness and dated the document. I wondered with little humor if this would be our anniversary.

Adelaide was a happy young wolf, looking forward to the excitements of a wolf life. Their mate, their pack family, their own family. The joys of being half monster and half human. That was until the pack started whispering when her family would pass by. Some would cower in fear and some would bear their neck as if submitting to us. "We were of no power, we were hardly significant at all? Just a family of medium standing wolves in a normal pack far from anywhere of significance. Yet, we were watched, hunted, and inevitably... killed." Her voice comes cold, falls flat upon her ears not even registering the weight of her own words. Her pain long pushed away, packed in the small chest she keeps it in, never really knowing what had caused her the turmoil. His hand caressed under her chin and she regained her focus on him. He pushed at the tears she hadn't realized spilled over unto her cheeks. "Except you." "Except me, the survivor."
