“please…don’t…" Xavier’s eyes were begging me with his unspoken request. I knew I could stop, so very easily and let it go. But I also knew that I couldn’t. I knew that if I stopped, she would slit his throat, and kill him right there. She would take him and make him pay, for everything that I had done, for everything that was my fault. Xavier was being selfless, just like Xander and Avril had been…but did they really deserve to die for this?
“Scarlett, don’t!” Avril shouted.
She had voiced what Xavier hadn’t. She didn’t care that if I stopped, she would die too. She didn’t care that if I stopped, I’d make the same mistake that Nathan had. She didn’t care that if I stopped, she would not live to see her happy ending. She didn’t care. But I did. I could not let them die. I could not live with that guilt. I could not live with that regret. I had to save them. I had to do this for them.
I walked on and handed the devil the key to the ultimate power that she was hungry for, unwillingly. But if I didn’t, she would use me against me and destroy my life, and everyone else’s in this room. My dad died for me, for one mistake that I had made. I could not let others die too.
“Scarlett, please…don’t give it to her…” Xavier spoke. For a moment, his eyes held mine and I could see regrets, annoyance, disgust, hopelessness, anger, love and selflessness in them. The demons held him back, despite his attempts to run to me and tell me that all of this was a bad dream. But it wasn’t. And it was all my fault.
I would do all it takes to get them out of this. With this resolution, I walked to her and handed her the stone. I could see the ecstasy of power, of invincibility on her face when she turned to Xavier.
“congratulations on getting such a girl, son. Pity she wouldn’t live to see the light of day."All Rights Reserved

"I can listen to your thoughts!" I whisper panicking again. He begins to smile while I back away. Oh moon goddess I'm sure he will kill me now. No I don't wanna die! Wait...what if he can listen to my thoughts too? Oh no, no, no, no, no why did this happen! Xavier comes closer and I back away more. What is he doing? Why is he frowning? Please help me! "Hey little one it's ok." Xavier whispers. What's ok?? That I can listen to his thoughts? Hell no! "Baby it's the mate bond it's normal." I felt tears starting to roll down my cheeks. Why is everything so complicated? Why is it like this?? #802 Rang in Werewolf~21th April 2018 #100 Rang in Werewolf~2nd May 2018 #70 Rang in Werewolf~8th May 2018 Began: 19th April 2018 Ended: 2nd August 2018 Thanks for so many reads and support never thought this could happen❤

Now, fifteen years later, she grew independent yet reclusive, hiding behind the thick walls she built around herself, keeping her anxiety in check.

A curse that dates back to her antediluvian lineage. Harboring a few demons of his own, the recent death of someone he loves prompted Gideon Hunter to pursue Alexandra for the answers he seeked. After rescuing her from an entity that was set off to hunt her, the recent turn of events pushes him to protect her. Both body and soul.

The Alpha's Summit by HavenStiel

NOTE: This is completed but unedited. It will be going through major changes soon including with plot and character changes. Once it is all changed, a notice of Completion will be added! Thanks! Sins and Secrets Book 1: "How do you think all your little Alpha buddies will feel," he hissed, his hot, rancid breath whispering across the back of my neck causing my stomach to sink, "When they discover the dark secret you've been hiding? Do you think they'll respect you still? Do you think that little mate of yours will still want you?" At the thought of Tiberius, my wolf went crazy. My body jerked at the restrained that held me down, the smell of burning flesh filling the room as the silver began to cut into my wrists. "Go to hell." We snapped as my whole body began to go numb. "Oh can't you see, my sweet little bird," he came closer, his lips practically pressed against the skin on my cheek, "You're already there." --------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Cara Eldoran. I am one of two Alpha's within my pack. Two years ago, I stood frozen to the ground and watched as someone I loved killed my older brother in front of me. There were no screams or tears. My whole body had gone into shock, and I was left to watch the horrors unfold in front of me. But I will lose no one else. Alpha's are going missing. They are being taken from their homes in the middle of the night and are never seen again. Sometimes I wish that being taken was my biggest problem. That all I had to worry about was making sure my windows were locked at night and that I was safe in the arms of my mate, but there is much more at stake then most realize. I vowed revenge for my brother the day he died, and I will stop at nothing to get it. Not even the dark secrets that could destroy me will stop my lust for vengeance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Seeking Hope [BoyxBoy] by Deny_Fate

''You don't know me?'' he asked me with the same soft voice. ''How could I?'' I yelled, struggling even harder. ''Let m-me go!'' My voice started to crack. I was breathing harder with each passing second and I was fighting to keep my eyes open. My chest started to hurt. The man caught me and snuggled me to his chest. For the first time after so long, I felt safe. I felt like no one can hurt me, as long as I was with him. Just before everything went blank I felt someone kissing my temple. ''Jayson, I won't lose you again..'' ✁ Jayson Salvatore is a sixteen-year-old boy who lost the will to live. After all, it is kinda hard to hold on to life when you have an abusive alcoholic man for a father, no friends.. basically no one to live for.

BOOK 1: Forever Scarred ( From: The Series; BETRAYAL OF THE HEART) by Lil_Thuggiex2

Mate," Xavier growled, the single word dripping with disdain rather than affection. Felipe immediately stepped forward. "No," he said firmly, his voice steady despite the fear prickling at the edges of his resolve. "You already have a mate, Xavier. Hazel." "Your already mated? I can smell her on you" Margie spat, overwhelmed by the fact that her mate is the alpha king and that he has already chosen someone even before he knew her. Xavier's expression didn't falter, but his eyes briefly flicked to Felipe before returning to Margie. "You're not worthy of me," Xavier sneered at Margie, his voice cold and cutting. "You're weak-pathetic. I don't want you, mortal." 💥 Margie's every waking moment is consumed by one person: Xavier, the powerful and ruthless alpha king. She's obsessed with him, her desire for him a burning fire that threatens to destroy her from the inside out. But Xavier doesn't want her.

But her desire for him is a sickness, a poison that's eating away at her soul. She's consumed by visions of him, haunted by the memories of his touch. She's unable to eat, unable to sleep, unable to think of anything else but him. Will Margie's all-consuming desire for Xavier ultimately be her downfall, or will she find a way to make him hers? Dive into the twisted world of Forever Scarred, where obsession, rejection, and desire collide in a tale of heartbreak and devastation.

Broken Connection✔️ by Simplewriter_31

(completed) When Evelyn Cruz, the youngest of the Cruz siblings, comes full circle back to an old family friend, she instantly is flooded with old memories. The Valor's have come back with business. That's all they truly cared for. The eldest son of the Valor's, Grayson, had made a promise to the Cruz siblings to never leave. That promise was broken 5 years ago. Though, the one most affected was Evelyn. He had solely set the promise from her words. He promised to not leave and cause her to become the taker of the family business she never wanted. Will she be able to forgive him? Or will they both have to live with a lost connection beyond repair? ~~~~~~~~~ I'm trying my best to not listen to his voice booming behind me. Following me. "Evelyn, please!" Grayson's footsteps are getting closer to my trail and I can't help but speed up. But no matter how hard I tried to get away from him, he caught up to me. "Evelyn-" Grayson's arm wraps around my arm and I'm tugged back, flipping around to face him. "What the fuck do you want Grayson?" My harsh voice echos in the empty, open hallway. "God, I dont know what you want me to do. I have tried everything to get you to forgive me." He takes a sharp breath when I pull a knife out of my pocket and hold it to his stomach. "You really want to know why I haven't forgiven you?" He stares down at me blankly and gives a short nod. "Because you took the one thing I hoped you would care for." I press the knife ever so slightly more into his skin, causing only a small reaction from Grayson. His jaw clenches before he speaks. "And that is?" I shake my head at how stupid he is. You would think the taker of the Valor family business would be smarter. But no. I use my free arm to grab his tie and tug on it, leaning him down. He was so close to me. I could feel his warm breath against my lips. We were only inches away. "My trust Grayson."

Unraveling The Heart by RiriQuill

After everything that happened, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off with Nova. I told myself I needed to check on her and make sure she was okay. I pushed open her door, and the sight of her almost stopped my heart. She was sitting on the floor, her back against the bed, eyes unfocused, her hand shaking as she brought another pill to her lips. My pulse quickened. "Nova?" My voice cracked, louder than I intended. She didn't respond at first, just continued, almost robotic, taking more. I rushed to her side, grabbing her wrist and forcing her to look at me. The fear in her eyes wasn't something I had ever seen before-not from her. I wasn't ready for this, but now that I was here, I couldn't look away. "What the hell are you doing?" I demanded, my voice rougher than I meant. She didn't answer. Her breath was shallow, and she seemed so... far away. The confident, strong Nova I knew was gone, replaced by someone broken. Someone who needed saving. I knew I had to be here for her, no matter what. Nova Rae Westbrook Her life seemed perfect-beautiful, smart, and unbothered by the world around her. But the truth was, Nova was hiding more than anyone could guess. Beneath the smile and confidence, there was a darkness she fought alone, a pain no one could see. Alexander Xavier DeLuca Charming, British, and arrogant to the core, Xavier DeLuca had it all-money, status, and women. He was used to getting what he wanted, no strings attached. A notorious playboy who never stayed interested in one girl for too long. But beneath the smirk and the effortless charm was a man who was hiding his own battles. A man with many faces, none of them truly his.

He's My Mate by Red_Assassin

CAUTION CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. "Say it, Allison," he said, his voice low as he trapped me against the rough wall. A shiver ran down my spine, his voice pulling at me, the power in it making me want to do anything he asked. I shook my head, afraid my voice might betray me. His teeth lightly grazed my neck causing a sigh to get past my lips. I could feel him smile against my skin. He knew he was going to get what he wanted one way or another. I tried to slip away, but he grabbed my wrists, pinning them down tightly. He pressed his hard body against me. I was aware of every inch of him that was touching me. "Don't think you can just leave. We're not done yet." My stomach tightened at his words, the desire inside burning for him. My damn body at war with my mind yet again. He slid his hand up to the edge of my shorts, slowly working it's way up as his mouth trailed small nips from my neck to my collar bone and lower, stopping only when he reached the fabric. I could feel my resolve weakening as his hand reached its destination. "Say it," he demanded. I moaned, my head tipping back as he moved expertly. I wanted to say it then, I really did. But if I said the words, there was no going back. ***************** Allison Cole has just turned seventeen. Most girls would be excited, but she doesn't see it as anything special. She can now find her mate, wherever he is. But she doesn't put much stock in mates or true love. How could something like that be predetermined? Things only go from bad to worse when on that very day she discovers who her mate actually is. Will Allison be able to overcome her bleak thoughts about mates and accept hers? Or is the man bad enough to make her run away? Caught between her body, her mind, and what's best for her pack. Allison must make her decision. Is it worth it?
