Jack Wright and his partner have climbed to the top since their hybrid tech-magic security startup became a wild success. He's pursued, envied, and confident he can charm people into doing exactly what he wants them to do.

But deep down where he'll never admit it, the only thing he really wants is to find the elusive mate he's been looking for all this time.

And he does find her, only to discover she's about as different from him as she can be. She's nature to his tech, herbivore to his carnivore, gentle to his feral, but still as quietly stubborn as can be with her own plans and ideas.

He doesn't care that they're different, and now all he needs is to convince her that she doesn't either.

This story is a stand alone spin-off/sequel to Rejecting the Alpha. It can be read entirely alone but there are spoilers for the earlier story.

I sighed, walking towards him. "Look, big man. I know who you are and I'm really sorry for what I'm about to do." I said before leaning in and kissing him. I could feel the sparks from our contact and heat pool in my belly. But before he could pull me in for a second one, I pulled back. "Why would you be sorry about that?" He asked, looking at me affectionately. He pushed the hair our of my face as he smiled. "That's not what I'm sorry for," I whispered before snapping his neck. This is too fucking easy, I thought before smelling two heavenly different smells. What the actual fuck? I turned slightly and locked eyes with two guys across the parking lot. I have three fucking mates?! Of course, my life can't be easy. -------------------------------------------------------- Rose Maxwell is your typical young, flirty, confident 21-year-old. With only one exception...she's a tribrid. Tribrid being a werewolf, vampire, and witch in one. It sounds cool, right? Only one problem...she shouldn't exist. Now with only herself to count on, Rose must learn the hard way to never trust anyone with her secret. But what happens when fate brings three mates into Rose's life? Everett Dixon, the sexy werewolf; Atticus Caldwell, the mysterious warlock; and Axel Hale, the brooding vampire. Will she learn to trust again? Or will she let the fear of being discovered threaten the bonds she has with her mates? Warning: This book is rated mature and will have mature-themed content.

Rejecting the Alpha by Vielle_
49 parts Complete Mature
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.) MATURE content including violence, dubious consent, intimacy, and mature and other possibility upsetting themes like threats of suicide and miscarriage. Not intended for the 18- crowd, sorry. #1 in Protective (10/23/21, 02/02/22) #1 in Pack (10/24/21)

• Completed • • Highest Ranking • #6 Werewolf February 2022 • Awards • 1st Place Paranormal Category: Splendiferous Awards May 2021 • Summary • A story of belonging, family and love, Edie Cohen goes on a journey of self-discovery to find out who she really is. Edie thinks she is human. She has never been told otherwise. Not by the elderly aunt who raised her, and not by anyone else. But it isn't until her aunt passes away from illness that Edie learns that there is far more to the bedtime stories she was told as a child... Guided only by the notes her aunt left behind and her questionable instincts, Edie finds herself thrust into the middle of supernatural conflict that leaves her questioning everything she has ever known. Soon Edie learns that her mother was a werewolf, and her father a human, neither able to give her the guidance and answers she desperately needs after they were murdered for their unconscionable union between species. Fiercely determined and independent, her journey lands her into the arms of her mate, a dark and moody Phelan Reyes. Unbeknownst to Edie, he has always been watching her from afar, protecting her from those who seek to exploit her hybridity. When she finds her way to him, Phelan cannot mark Edie to protect her. The process is toxic for humans, so there is no mind-link. No capacity for her to shift. And no way to protect her. Her hybridity is unheard of- and Phelan has to fight his own internal battles to make her his due to the risks involved. Add in a human ex-boyfriend who is determined to find her, and the werewolf council The Guild who will stop at nothing to ensure her mutation is ended once and for all, Edie finds herself on an adventure that is far more than she ever bargained for... Mature language, themes and scenes.

True love. Mates. The very backbone of the werewolf species. But what happens when your Alpha mate rejects you? --------- Eden Cross is a Beta wolf in the Moorgrey Pack. With two different coloured eyes and a secret, she's always been a bit different but well respected and a good friend of most in the packlands. On her 20th birthday she is excited to find her mate as any she-wolf could be. The stories and lore of fated mates told by the ancestors make it all seem like such a fairytale. The love and bond you experience is like no other. But that's not the case; not for Eden. Rejected and shunned after a chaotic incident, she is sent off to Emberholde Academy, a place for out of control wolves and under the strict rule of Alpha Dante Ashvale of the Shadow Sun pack. He's ruthless and unforgiving, but turns out to be crucial to Eden's life and future, with a secret of his own. A man dedicated to his pack, with no care for himself. When these two souls collide in a raging blaze, will they rise from the ashes stronger, or stifle in never ending darkness? ______________________________ [Chapter updates will be weekly, unless posted otherwise.] [18+, some mature content/themes, sex, swearing.] [Sexual themed chapters will be labelled with a disclaimer, and have been written in a way that you can skip these scenes if you prefer.] Spotify Playlist for this novel --> https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6SBn7MPdncfpnrEdVIlIzS?si=e0etOkrpRuqitDF5HBnpzQ *** This work is completely created and written by me, and in no means can be copied, saved or re-posted to other sites, or used for personal use without my permission. *** Rankings -

Book 1 of The Secrets of Spiritwood - Complete I was born and raised in Spiritwood with no intention to ever leave, until the choice is taken away from me when my family is put in danger. I return to my grandfather's cabin as the sun is setting only to discover my belongings have been packed. I'm forced to leave without the chance to say goodbye to the two people who mean the world to me. It's been nine years and once again the choice is taken from me. I have no option but to go back to Spiritwood after my grandfather passes but when I arrive, something isn't quite right. The busy hustle of the once quaint town is gone, the streets are eerily quiet and missing person flyers cover the windows of rundown businesses. My plan to deal with my grandfather's estate and skip town before anyone can see me turns to dust when I run into the very people I've vowed to never speak to again. In the end, all I know is that I'm left with so many questions. Can you be in love with more than one person at the same time? Will I be able to forgive them for all their secrets and lies? Will I finally allow myself to let go and fall in love? And why do I have this feeling that I may end up destroyed in the process? **T/W: Foul Language, Foul Attitudes, Violence and Steamy, Steamy Scenes.** Most Impressive Ranking: #1 - Menageatrois - June 3, 2024 #1 - MoonGoddess - October 22, 2021 #1 - Romance - April 12, 2022 #1 - Goddess - April 14, 2022 #1 - Werewolf - June 3, 2024 #2 - Mature - August 11, 2021 #3 - EroticaStories July 17, 2021 #3 - Night - April 14, 2022 #5 - Wolfpack January 19, 2022 #10 - Queen January 12, 2022 #75 - Life September 5, 2021
