"Oh Lord, Oh Lord, what have I done? I've fallen in love with a man on the run,
I'm begging you please don't take that sinner from me.
Oh don't take that sinner from me."

     What would you do if you fell in love with a criminal? Would you hide him? Would you turn him in?
     What would you do if he threatened everything that you thought you knew? Everything that you've ever lived for. What if he brought out a different side of you?

"Give me the burden, give me the blame. I'll shoulder the load, i'll swallow the shame. Give me the burden, give me the blame. How many, how many Hail Mary's is it going to take?"

     Would you try to save him?

"I don't care if he's guilty, don't care if he's not. He's good and he's bad and he's all that i got. Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm begging you please. Don't take that sinner from me. Oh don't take that sinner from me."

     Harley Morgan is a nobody. She might be a werewolf and be apart of a bad ass pack but that doesn't make her anything special. She's just an ordinary werewolf with an ordinary boyfriend waiting for her prince charming (her true mate) to come and wag his tail in her direction. Unfortunately, life isn't easy when you're a nobody, and she won't be a nobody for long.All Rights Reserved

The Alexandra Diaries by thefeelsofbooks

*Extract from The Alexandra Diaries* ""From the day that I met you, I have been filled with guilt. And it eats me alive like it hasn't been fed in years. I'm not the same girl I was when I met you, that girl is dead. And you want to know who killed her? You did." His eyes widen, and it looks like his whole world has just collapsed. "And I hate you for that."" Betrayal, death, guilt, mistakes, etc. Almost everyone experiences all of those at some point in their life, but that shouldn't make us any less of who we are. But what happens when those things consume you and follow you like a dark cloud? What happens when the only thing you can think about day after day, is how you're going to make it to tomorrow? It ruins you. It ruined her... DISCLAIMER: I wrote this story when I was 13. It has a lot of mistakes and may not be everybody's cup of tea. Please proceed with kindness :)

Alpha Crane is getting close to what his father and grandfather wanted to achieve for over a century. He will unite all of the packs in the United States under him and allow all supernatural creatures to live in harmony. 10 years ago now, word spread of the white wolf returning. It isn't his number one priority, but the alpha knows what a great ally it would be. When rogues threaten the bounder of Arizona and are harming the indigenous tribes he promised to protect, Alpha Crane journeys to the border only to find his mate, the white wolf. Marlowe knows that she is a weapon of destruction. Her parents remind her daily of why she needs to remain hidden, only to be used in battle. Her father's enemies and intruders to the Harper pack never live to tell anyone where she is and what pack she belongs to. The pack has no allies. They do not accept outsiders. They are virtually alone and people wonder where their strength comes from. Is it the witch living within their bonds, it is their blended pack of coyotes and wolves? No one knows. But the pack has one issue, Alpha Brown only has Marlowe, no male heirs. Marlowe and her family are left with a decision to merge with Alpha Crane's Crescent Moon pack or bend the rules and let Marlowe take over. While love is in the air for many of the leaders in these packs, scientists have gotten more bold with their interests in supernatural creatures. One scientist has taken an interest in the creatures that possess magical abilities and has built labs all over experimenting on them. While half the team takes on search and rescue the other half deals with negotiations and merger deals with the remaining territories across the U.S. Things get dicey when they discover not everyone will yield peacefully.

Not Your Luna (Formerly His Rogue Luna) by Chloexx919

He grabbed me, and I felt tingles go up my arms. I started to thrash around trying to get out of his grip. As much as my wolf wanted him, I didn't and I wouldn't give in. "Let me go, dammit", I practically screamed at him. "No. You're mine", he screamed back, sending shivers down my spine as I began to relax into him. I jumped suddenly scared that if I didn't stop myself then I would never want to go. I knew what I had to do. "I, Emma St. Germain, reject you, Aiden Douglas, as my mate." I sent him a pitiful look as he fell to the floor, through the mate bond I knew he was in pain. "I'm sorry," I whispered before running as far away from him as possible. ***** She didn't want a mate, she just wanted to survive long enough to avenge her family. So when she finds out that Aiden Douglas, Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, is her mate, and he cheats on her. She rejects him and runs. He is trying to fight for her while she fights her demons. What is she supposed to do when her demons become real? ***** Disclaimer: This is not a book with a happy ending or a love story. If you want a happy ending, this book isn't for you.

"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.
