Her Alpha [18+]
Bitten. Transformed. Trapped in a world of lies - and at the mercy of a dangerous Alpha she shouldn't want, but can't resist. Book 1 of Epsilon *** As the only human-turned-werewolf in the pack, Kyra is simultaneously despised, mistrusted, and in possession of a dangerous power - a combination that makes her head spin. Alpha Azriel sees Kyra's potential and is eager to draw her into his world, but Kyra doesn't feel that the war between the packs is hers to fight. All she wants is to return to the life she once knew. Yet as Azriel proves himself more ally than enemy, something deeper begins to stir. A dangerous bond is forming between them, and Azriel's war may just become her own. Because while Kyra doesn't believe it, and the other wolves may try to deny it, there is one unfaltering truth: their kingdom is crumbling, and only she has the power to save it. And the Alpha? He might just be hers to claim. **This is a rewrite of the previous title, Epsilon.Complete
Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
