An Alpha's Duty by Littlepearl95

Ryan King is an Alpha desperately trying to hold his pack together. Between the blood thirsty enemy packs wanting to take what's his, a council that seems permanently against them and the arrival of his very unexpected mate, Ryan will have his work cut out to protect everyone he loves. He thought he understood his world and the people around him but things are not what they appear. Can he and his new mate figure out their entwined, dark history? Can they be the first to break the cycle? Or will they succumb to the curse that has haunted both their kinds? *********** They were under attack. Suddenly everything happened all at once. The two wolves partially shifted and attacked the closest enforcers to them. Throwing them into walls with ear shattering cracks. Although the enforcers were all paranormals, not one of them could best the brute strength of a shifter in one to one combat. Ryan could hear the growling of his pack far too close to the house for it to be a good sign. "They're coming!" Ryan saw the old seer point avidly towards the window as a huge timber coloured wolf crashed through the panes. **************** Highest ranking: #16 in eroticromance 09/05/2018 #01 in shadowwalker 02/08/2021 **Warning this book is for mature audiences and contains sexual scenes and swearing.

Marked by the Moon by ObsessionInk

For as long as she can remember, Luna Caelum has belonged to no one. An unclaimed omega is a rare thing, a temptation-and a target. She has spent years on the run, dodging alphas who see her as little more than a mate to conquer or a pawn to control. But when the most feared alpha in the kingdom hunts her down, everything changes. Ronan Vale isn't just any alpha-he is the alpha. Cold. Unchallenged. A warrior feared across the lands. And when he lays eyes on Luna, something ancient and primal awakens inside him. She is his. But Ronan doesn't know the truth. Luna isn't just any omega. She is the last of her bloodline-the key to a prophecy as old as the moon itself. A prophecy that speaks of a wolf born under a cursed eclipse, destined to bring either salvation or ruin to their kind. And now, both hunters and gods are searching for her. Bound by fate but torn apart by secrets, Luna and Ronan must choose-give in to the bond that ties them, or fight against the darkness threatening to consume them both. Because in the end, one of them will have to break.

Her Alpha [18+] by JMiaDavies

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.
