Rejected Luna: Claimed by the Lycan King by VivienneStormAuthor

For five years Rosalee Hale stood beside Alpha Darius as his Luna - loyal, devoted, and silently enduring a marriage built on duty instead of love. She healed his warriors, protected his pack, and kept his territory stable while he shared his bed with other she-wolves and expected her to accept it. But the night he tried to replace her publicly... she chose herself. Before the entire pack, Rosalee rejected her Alpha. She expected freedom. She awakened destiny. A second bond ignites - deeper, older, and far more powerful than any Alpha. Her true mate is not a wolf bound by pack law, but a Lycan King feared by the supernatural world itself. He doesn't want a mate. Not because he doesn't feel the bond... but because loving him puts her in danger. Now enemies are searching, secrets surround her bloodline, and the man who broke her heart wants her back. Too late. The Luna he rejected was never weak. She was a queen waiting to rise. 🌙Updates daily 🌙Mature themes 🌙Fated mates - Second chance - Powerful heroine

The Night Library by Elantryys

Some doors are locked for a reason. Centuries ago, Lucien was entrusted with the stewardship of a library unlike any other: a vast, hidden archive where the oldest truths of the world were kept safe from those who would twist them. Over the centuries, he has watched seekers come and go, most leaving empty-handed... if they left at all. Now, Isla's search for her missing sister leads her to the library's threshold. Drawn into its labyrinth of secrets, she finds herself under Lucien's watchful eye- unsure whether he means to help her, hinder her, or keep her there forever. As they follow a trail of ancient records and dangerous revelations, Isla begins to suspect her sister's disappearance is tied to something far larger and far older than she ever imagined. And in the library's depths, where history blurs with the present, the cost of finding the truth may be more than either of them can bear.

Stay with us - Straykids OT8 Fanfiction - Shapeshifter AU by Justatinylittlecat

-Shapeshifter Au- Rain was hitting the windows of every nearby building and prompting the pedestrians to keep their heads under their umbrellas, hurrying home and not even looking at the storefront of your café. Why had your boss even scheduled you for a shift tonight? With weather like this, anyone craving hot chocolate would rather drink it at their own place. Sitting behind the counter and sulking, you decided to make a cup of coffee for yourself, no customer would come tonight anyway. Little did you know, but the kind of "shift" that was coming had nothing to do with work. You cleaned the counter and tables, packed your bag, and used your own key to lock up the café. Your body froze when you heard what sounded like whimpers in the alley next to the café. The streetlights cast long shadows, making it impossible for you to see clearly when you stepped forward. You let out a shriek as your phone slipped from your hand and hit the ground. A man was crouched down, his back facing you, but a dim light let you catch a glimpse of the blood soaking his back and shoulders. He turned around and you recognized him right away. His eyes. His hair. His freckles. Felix was standing right in front of you.
