"Some things just defy explanation, don't they? Like the fact that you hate me and want me at the same time," his voice rudely infiltrated her mind yet again.

"Stay calm, stay in control," her wolf warned cautiously. "Emotions make deadly mistakes."

Growing up enmeshed in palace politics and intrigue, Zayda has no desire to participate in the mate game, an ancient tradition in the Black Star pack where mates hunt down and claim one another. But her uncle, Alpha Zhuor, has other plans for her when he reveals that wolvens from neighboring Dark Forest have been invited to participate in the annual game.

Despite his prowess as a warrior, Daxin is ostracized within Dark Forest because he is the child of an illicit affair. Barred from his pack's traditional mating rituals, he volunteers to participate in Black Star's mating game in hopes of winning a mate and earning the respect of his pack.

There's just one problem: the girl who steals his heart has no intention of giving him hers, and he's running out of time to change her mind.

Author's Note: I started this story because I was dealing with some writer's block on my first book, A Mate Out of Murder. It takes place in the same world but, at this point, does not intersect or contain any crossover spoilers. For now, this work will only be updated occasionally when I'm feeling inspired or I need a break from the first one.

MY FREEDOM, HIS DESIRE (BXB)  by Fabiolaunknown
42 parts Ongoing
"Ensure they cannot touch what belongs to me again," he commanded, his voice firm and authoritative. His beta nodded, taking a step back and bowing his head. "Yes, Alpha King." The gravity of the situation hit me like a ton of bricks - they were talking about my friends. A wave of panic washed over me as I realized my little drama to piss him off had put them in danger. Now, I had to act fast to prevent disaster. I couldn't let my recklessness hurt the people I care about. I tugged on Alarico's coat sleeve, and he turned to face me. Our eyes locked, and for the first time, I felt genuine fear. My voice barely above a whisper, I said, "Noooo." Alarico's gaze narrowed, and he raised an eyebrow, as if granting me permission to speak. I swallowed hard and tried to find my voice. "D-Don't hurt them." My words were laced with desperation, and Alarico's expression softened slightly. He tilted my face toward his beta and said, "Order them." I hesitated, unsure of what he meant. Was he testing me? But Alarico's gaze remained steady, his voice low and commanding. "Say it," he urged. With tears welling up in my eyes, I spoke, my voice shaking with rage and fear. "I, Mario Cassano, order you to revoke your alpha's previous order and not to lay a finger on my friends." The words felt like acid on my tongue, but I knew I had to protect my friends. As I finished speaking, Alarico's men dropped to their knees, their heads bowed in unison. I stumbled backward, startled by their sudden action. "Your wish is our command, Queen Luna," they chanted in perfect harmony. The title "Queen Luna" sent shivers down my spine. What did it mean? And why did Alarico's men respond to me with such reverence? I looked up at Alarico, searching for answers, but his expression remained enigmatic.

My Shy Alpha (MxM)

25 parts Ongoing

Being a werewolf wasn't all bad, I had a pack, loving yet annoying family, friends, tight knit community. The one thing I really hated was the season. The simplest way to explain the season was the six weeks us werewolves procreated, females went into heats, males rutted, and omegas, like me, got our asses chased like they were made of gold. I'm serious. I avoided the sordid affair all together, turning down all those asked to be my season partner but with the pack leaders son on my heels and a new alpha in town, i don't think i can sit this season out.
