"Were you following me?"

"Not everything is about you."

Jackson's Hollow is a tiny, middle-of-nowhere town in the middle of the Smoky Mountains, which is what 18-year-old Jo Scott needs right now. Less people, more space, less chances for whatever happened that night in the alley to happen again. All she needs to do is relax. Except from almost the moment she gets there, she's constantly running into Ryker Monroe, and being around him is frustrating, exciting, aggravating, invigorating and anything but relaxing. Not to mention how distracting those overcast, stormy eyes and that lean, muscle-bound body are. 

Son of the current alpha, 19-year-old Ryker Monroe isn't looking for a mate, especially a human one. Right now, he's just trying to learn how to lead and not get into a territory war with the pack that's been edging into his land. But he can't keep his eye off the new girl in town--besides being his mate, there's just something more to the brown-eyed beauty who keeps him laughing than meets the eye, he's sure of it.

Unable to resist the magnetism drawing them to each other, sparks are definitely going to fly...

But when the hunt for her parents' murderer leads her to a community deep within the Colorado forests where werewolves run rampant, she might be in over her head.

When a group of hunters appears in his pack's territory, Red doesn't hesitate to let them know that they've messed with the wrong wolf. Yet his hunt leads him to a human woman with hate in her eyes who could only be his Mate. With the revelation that someone in his pack is butchering humans, Red knows that he must put an end to it for his Mate's sake - and his own. Together, Blake and Red must come together to catch a murderer before he strikes again but their hunt may lead them to something much more dangerous if they are brave enough to set aside their differences and take it.

Take Me to Ruin by aziiiweaver

They say monsters come out at night. They're wrong. The monsters never leave. The Hollow Men own the shadows of Blenford Ridge. They play by their own rules no one questions- because breaking them means you don't come back. There's only one way into their world: the Ritual. One chance to survive, to earn a place in the chaos and desire that waits beyond. No warnings. No second tries. Fail, and you disappear from their world forever. Angel Monroe never wanted their attention. But when the wrong glance turns into a challenge, she's pulled into a world of power, danger, and desire that's as twisted as it is addictive. Hate simmers. Tension burns. And the harder she pushes back, the more they seem to want her to break. Some men don't stop at breaking you. They want to own you. And when desire and danger collide, there's no telling who'll break first. Because some obsessions don't end with the night. They only get darker. ‼️⚠️WARNINGS⚠️‼️ graphic sexual content, bdsm and kink dynamics, consensual non-consent (cnc), violence and murder, psychological manipulation, dark and morally gray themes, emotional and physical degradation, toxic relationship, obsession and possessiveness, trauma and mental distress

When seventeen-year-old Alanna Milton moves to the small town of Avalon after inheriting a mysterious family home, she expects the biggest challenge to be adjusting to life without her parents. But from the moment she arrives, she feels it-the house breathes, the shadows stretch, and the forest whispers her name. Everyone, including her protective but infuriatingly unreadable neighbor Jake Valor, insists that the eerie events surrounding her first night were just exhaustion and nightmares. But the deeper Alanna digs, the harder it is to ignore the unsettling truth. Something is watching her. Something that's been waiting. What she doesn't know is that Jake knows exactly what's happening. Because from the second he scented her, he knew-Alanna Milton is his fated mate. The girl he's been destined to protect. But Jake isn't just any wolf-he's the future Alpha of Avalon's pack, and Alanna? She's not just human. She's the prophecy reborn-a child of three supernatural bloodlines: wolf, seer, and siren. A child destined to change the balance of the supernatural world-for better or for worse. And now, the Vodyamana, a creature of darkness from the realm between worlds, is hunting her, sent by an ancient force, Galatea. With danger closing in and the people she's come to trust hiding secrets of their own, Alanna must uncover the truth about her past before the forces hunting her drag her into the darkness forever. But the deeper she dives into the mystery of who she is, the more she realizes... A war is coming. And she is the key. And fate? It doesn't care if she's ready.

Normal was the goal. Fate brought fur and a punchline. Brayden's life is a chaotic mess with the appearance of a broodingly possessive Alpha Damien and one ridiculously inconvenient mate bond later. Lukewarm coffee is out and ancient pack laws are in. Brayden is having none of it, determined to resist this unwanted destiny with a full-scale sarcastic rebellion against this supernatural nonsense. Prepare for a darkly funny rom-com that gleefully claws its way out of the werewolf genre box. While Damien's possessiveness howls 'fated mate', Brayden's inner monologue is a laugh-out-loud revolt against any predetermined bond. His wit is sharp. His mate's teeth are sharper. Who bleeds first in this untamed romance? Excerpt: ''Dude! Let go!'' I yell, my voice muffled by the wall of flesh smashing my face. My one arm was still being held secure in the guy's grip and my other hand is now pinned to my side. Desperate to escape I resort to just wiggling my whole body, thrashing around to try and get loose. Instantly, I'm released and my anger comes back in full force. "You think you can file for harassment over a spilled drink!? Wait until I get a chance to talk to the police because holding me without my consent, against my will is actual harassment!" I yell at the man, trying to straighten my shirt.

The Dark Side of the Moon by thealexiarose

"Fuck, baby. You can't say things like that to me. I want to, also. Trust me." His hand snakes down my body until he enters two of his fingers into my wet center. I can only moan in response. "However," he kisses my neck possessively, finding the right spot to drive me crazy. "I need to build you up to that." He pushes his fingers in and out of me, hitting deeper and deeper as his strokes become longer and harder and faster. "You feel that? My fingers deep in your pussy that's dripping for me?" He licks the side of my neck as my breaths come out in short pants. "My dick is going to stretch you out so much more. When I finally fuck you, you're going to be sore for days. And you're going to love it." ---------- Thea Brooks, an 18-year-old college student, lives her life by a schedule.

Alexander Wolf, the born-human descendant of the greatest pack of his world, is the sole heir of the Alpha of the prestigious Prime Crescent Pack. His birth has always been a calamity, a distress. Every breath he takes reminds him of the misfortune he's caused to his parents, family, and pack.

He's spent his life alone, hiding behind high walls and large doors whenever his parents tried to introduce him to the pack. But now, with his coming of age, he must step forward into alpha duties and serve his pack. Will he find himself ruling with grace, or will he run away like he always has? Will he give up his birthright due to the Moon Goddess's cruel twist of fate? As a human in a wolf pack, his life is far from fortunate, unlike his human mother, the Luna, who is protected by the powerful Alpha, his father. However, he can't escape the whispers within the pack: "Can a human really be our next Alpha? No way!" His life is already a mess, and the Awakening Ceremony, a significant milestone, has shaken him to his core. He doubts his ability to fulfill alpha duties and find a mate bond, especially without a wolf of his own. Will he find someone to accept him without being looked down upon? Can he satisfy his primal urges without being a werewolf himself? But he doubts whether he'll have a mate at all. Cover by @CuteFairyDust Started: 28/06/2024
