The tree spirits had stolen from the village without restraint, full of an anger that lashed against it's victims whilst they took their final breath. But how do you fight a monster that no one believes is even real? 

That is the question plaguing Maya as she gets caught up in a chase through the deadliest place she knew. 

Maya had already lost a lot to the spirits in the woods. She'd also found a lot to gain from them too. But what if the cost of finally defeating the spirits in the woods is one too high to pay?

*Excerpt* 

"Blake? Blake?! How are you feeling? Do you want water? Sorry I'll get out of your bed I promise I wasn't doing anything it was just easier what with changing your bandages and-" Blake interrupted her rambling by kissing her. His mouth was soft and warm but strong and demanding against hers. One of his hands came up to wind in her hair and she found her own coming to rest on his chest. Just as she started to become breathless he pulled back. 

"Hi,"his voice was gruff from lack of use but there was a soft smile on his face. Maya felt her face heat up, suddenly feeling shy. 

"Hi," she smiled back ducking her head to hide her rosy cheeks. Blake reached over one of his strong hands and lifted her face with a finger under her chin. "Don't hide. I want to see you. For a second I never thought I'd see you again."All Rights Reserved

His Obsession by CaraMichaels2013

Adelaide meets her mate on the day she turns eighteen. However, she has a secret that no one knows about, not even her best friend. How long will she be able to keep this secret from her mate? And what will happen when he finds out? *** I never heard him make a sound, so his voice makes me jump as I hear him say "I can smell him on you" from right behind me. I turn around and dread fills me as I look into his dark eyes. They're glowing from the light from the fridge. I stumble over my thoughts but manage to squeak out "I thought you were out on a mission for your Alpha?" "I finished, and now I'm back." His eyes boring a hole through my head. "And I can tell that you've been slutting it up" he says with a look that makes me tremble. I start to shake my head, to try and persuade him that I haven't been doing anything wrong, but he forcefully grabs my jaw and stops me from shaking it. "You really shouldn't lie to me Adelaide, now I'm just going to have to teach you a lesson" he spits out at me. *** This isn't you typical story about werewolves, but I love the idea of mates, so follow these young adults on their journey with a supernatural twist.

The Curse Of An Alpha *MATURE* by authornikolagacek

BOOK ONE OF THE CURSED SERIES "What's your name?" His voice was a delicate murmur in her ear. "Alice," she breathed, gasping as he nipped at her lobe. Their bodies swayed to the music, ignorant of the people around them. She was falling into the abyss of this man, of his seduction and thrall. Her stomach clenched involuntarily as he breathed her name in a throaty groan. "I like that," he murmured as he trailed his tongue down her neck, nipping at the skin at the base of her throat. Alice opened her eyes at the glaring flashing lights above them. She wanted him. Gods how she wanted him... "What's your name?" She dared to ask. Her throat was dry and parched from the heat, from the man that ground his pelvis into her ass... He chuckled, fingers trailing down her right thigh, "so responsive," he murmured as she moaned, gasping for cool air. * * * When Alice seeks out a popular club in hopes of curbing the misery that 'the one that should not be named' had caused, she most certainly didn't anticipate stumbling upon a man who would rock her world in a way that 'the one that should not be named' didn't. Nevermind the prospect of stumbling upon someone who was of another species entirely. Although, she tried to forget about that part. And let's be honest here, it's not exactly easy escaping an Alpha that claims to require Alice for his survival. But like her gramps had told her- "there's nothing like a good kick to the balls." Though, that didn't quite work in her favour a year down the line. How, do you wonder? Well, it's a damn long story to tell.

Claimed by JaideHarley

Book 5 in Elder series: Completed Red is both on the run and looking to settle down. After escaping her previous pack and brainwashed, now rejected mate, her task is both to keep her pack of rogues alive long enough to clear their names and establish as an official pack, and to hunt down her brother's killer. Keeping her identity a secret since she and her inner circle are wanted, she and her pack of rogues make their way towards the Elder base where they can appeal to become an official pack with their own land. On the way to that goal is where she locates her brother's killer. Intending to get revenge quietly doesn't go so well when she raids the same group of rogues another pack is after, and learns the Luna of the pack is one of the Elders who has a say in whether or not her pack becomes official. Beta Ben's fated mate was brutally murdered in front of him years ago. The heartache and guilt is still fresh in his mind and as a result, he keeps to himself and stays far away from any kind of romantic attachment. It's never been difficult for him until his pack, Blood Moon, raids a group of rogues and finds they aren't the only ones raiding. The leader of the raid is Red, a woman that manages to awaken a part of him he believed died with his mate. Blood Moon pack takes in the group of rogues with the intent to help clear Red's name and have them presentable to The Elders as a viable pack with strong leaders. As Red's pack and Ben's pack mingle, the two of them encounter each other daily. Red sets her sights on Ben while Ben deals with the complicated emotions she brings out, making him want something with her he previously thought he'd never even consider after losing his mate.

Rejecting the Alpha by Vielle_

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)

I quickly put my head down. The truth was going to come out and I wasn't ready for it. I knew what was going to happen. I was so terrified, I just wanted to go home. My throat went dry. I could feel him stop in front of me. I could feel his power coming off of him. I could feel the air change. Kat was loosing her mind, she was so happy. I was so scared. Once I looked up everything was going to change. I wasn't ready, my god why does this have to happen to me. I felt his warm fingertips on the bottom of my chin. It sent shivers into my spine. I wanted more, I wanted more of his touch. It's like my body needed it. I wanted to throw my hand around him. He lifted my chin up slowly, and everything paused. I saw his beautiful honey eyes. "Mate" Kat said in my head. It was like I was staring into his soul. We were so close I could hear him breathing. His steady breathing was the best music I could hear. He nearly stopped my breath, it felt like I was floating. His honey eyes were staring into mine he looked mesmerized. He took his hand off my chin and softly grabbed my hand. He pulled it up to his mouth and said "I believe you're my Queen." He said in a deep enriching voice. Then he kissed my hand with his soft lips.

The Fate of The Luna by RileysVibes

This is book one of the series. Jordan shifts slightly in my lap so she can see my face. "Liam, I want you to mark me." She bluntly states and exposes her neck to me, so I can mark her. A wave of confusion comes over me and I tilt my head looking at her. "Are you sure that is what you want?" I look at her neck where my mark should be and feel my canines extending. Jordan simply smiles and nods her head. I readjust our bodies, so she is underneath me. I lean down and softly kiss her lips. The kiss burns my lips and not in the normal mate bond way. I pull away and rub my lips trying to get the sensation to go away. Jordan stares at me with her eyes squinted. I look her over and see nothing short of the perfect mate I am used to, however, something isn't right. Jordan pulls me down closer to her and starts leaving little kisses all over my body. Every place her lips touch immediately burns. I push her away and move towards the bottom of the bed. She sits up and moves to come closer to me. I move away again. "Liam, don't you want to mark me? Don't you want this?" Jordan looks at me pouting. This is when I realize what is going on. I smile and move to her. "Of course, I want to my queen," I coo at her and grab her wrists and pin them behind her head. My hands are burning from touching her, but I fight through it. I start leaving kisses all along her neck and pause where my canines are supposed to sink into her neck. Jordan lets out a throaty moan and I can smell her arousal. I kiss up and towards the middle of her throat. My canines extend and I bite into her throat and rip it out. Her eyes fill with pain and she struggles before the life is finally drained out of her. I drop the muscle and flesh from my mouth and let out a howl of victory.

The Wand and the Wolf by The_OrangeAuthor

**COMPLETED** "You have a weird look on your face," I said and his frown deepened. "I do not," he closed his spell book and ran a hand through his shaggy hair. "Hmm," I hummed under my breath as I smoothed the crease between his brow. He grabbed my wrist, his hand warm and firm, and pulled it down. "Personal space." "Sorry," I said with a small smile. Much progress had been made. "Werewolves," he huffed, letting go of my wrist and snapping open his book. "Warlocks," I hissed, snatching the book from his hands. ******************************************* Kyda and Ibhan were opposing forces from the moment they met. But Kydas belief in mates keeps her tethered to the brooding warlock who had been happily living a life of isolation before he met her. Well, maybe not happily per se, but quietly and contently. But soon, a conspiracy within the pack, and some magic that just doesn't add up, finally begins to widen the chasm between the two of them. A chasm they had just begun to build a bridge over. Will the rule of opposite attraction win, or will the nature of their relationship burn out just as it should?

Elemental Heir | ✔️ by xKJFERGUSONx

(Complete) **A MATURE FANTASY** Book #1 in the Elemental Heir Series. Now published and available in PAPERBACK and KINDLE on AMAZON!! 🤍 "Your ready wit never fails to surprise and delight me, Brenya." He murmured, his lips only inches from my own. I blinked, my lips parting, as his heady scent encircled me. He licked his lower lip, running his teeth over it as his electric blue eyes burned into mine. The heat of his bare chest seeped through my thin cotton shirt, thawing my icy irritation. "Even when you're being cross." He added in a low voice. He leaned closer, before I could respond, and ran his teeth along my jaw. I suppressed a moan. "I wouldn't be cross if you weren't so keen on irritating me." I said, unable to hide the smile in my voice. I felt his answering smile against my neck. "How can I make it up to you?" He whispered, planting gentle kisses up and down the column of my throat. He moved to the other side of my neck, flicking his tongue once against the mating mark near my shoulder. My hands slid up his abdomen, exploring the dips and hard lines of his muscles. Heat uncurled deep in my belly, spreading lower, and lower, until I felt my panties dampen. He growled into my ear, sending shivers down my entire body. *~*~*~*~*~* ~#1 in ROMANCE 9/13/18~ ~#1 in ACTION-ADVENTURE 12/05/18 and 4/25/19~ ~#1 in ACTION-ROMANCE 1/16/19~ ~#1 in DRAGONS 6/9/19~ ~#1 in FAIRIES 7/20/19~ *~*~*~*~*~* ⚠️!!

"Has anyone ever touched you here?" My heart raced as heat surged through me. I shook my head and his hand slid lower, resting on my thigh, near my butt. "What about here, Liza?" I bit my lip, the warmth of his touch sending a jolt through me. I shook my head again, and his hand moved to my abdomen, "Here?" his gaze became intense. I gulped and shook my head. His hand continued its ascent, stopping in the center of my chest. I dragged a long breath in. "I bet nobody has ever touched you here," he murmured, his voice now husky and tinged with tension.
