Blind Instincts
*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it. "You're blind." ~ Monet was born into a particularly prestigious area of her wolf pack, to parents of extremely high standards. Her legacy is to become the packs next healer, but when she was born completely devoid of melanin, all her mated parents saw was a disappointment. Being born an albino wolf pup meant a lot for Monet, but it mostly meant her condition had taken her eyesight along with it. What happens when Monet meets the Alpha of a neighboring pack? Will he accept her for what she is? ~CONTENT WARNING~ This book contains depictions of physical abuse, foul language, and upsetting scenary.

Shadows of a broken heart
Prologue: (Completed) The girl who once dreamed of freedom now knows nothing but survival. Every day is a fight against the darkness that haunts her, a fight against the fists of a father and the cold cruelty of a stepmother. The home that should have been a sanctuary is instead a prison, and she is its unwilling captive. From a young age, she learned to shut off her emotions, to block out the pain, because if she didn't, it would swallow her whole. In the silence of the house, where every corner is filled with fear, she is nothing more than a shadow, invisible and ignored, except when they need someone to blame. But buried beneath the numbness, a flicker of something remains-something that refuses to die. A longing for a life beyond this suffocating world. She doesn't know it yet, but salvation is on the way. One day, a secret is uncovered: the family she's known her whole life isn't hers at all. There's another family out there, a powerful one, a mafia family, who has been searching for her. They're ready to take her in, to protect her, to give her a life she never imagined possible. But trust doesn't come easy for a girl who's been broken. And even in the arms of a family that loves her, the ghosts of her past will not let her go. The road ahead will be filled with tension, secrets, and the undeniable pull of revenge. She's been taught to feel nothing, but to heal, she must learn to feel again.
Beauty and Beastly | ✓
THIS BOOK IS COMPLETED but it will be HEAVILY EDITED and have things added to it in the future. I wrote this book when I was much younger. I didn't expect it to reach this amount of popularity so I will devote my time to bettering it in the future. ------------------ Every year, in our village and the neighbouring villages, we encounter, on what is suppose to be the most divine and celebrated day of the year, a visit from the 'big bad wolf'. At least that's what the children call him. Adults like to call him "inhuman" or a "wild ravenous monster". However, the majority settle for "beast". No one knows why he ruins this specific day for us, the day we can celebrate our species: werewolves. Some despise him for taking this day from us and forcefully exchanging our merry and joyful laughs to screams of fear. When that specific day of the year approaches us, none of us are ever prepared for it. He always comes at night. We are told to lock our windows, draw our curtains and our doors. We are told to hide. There's one main rule that we have: don't look at him. Because if you do, no one knows what'll happen to you. Maybe that's the worse part, not knowing your fate. Not knowing the outcome of your foolish actions. If he comes roaming your streets, you have a right to be scared. Us "maidens" are always encouraged to hide ourselves the most, it's women that he supposedly wants more. However, I believe that that is a cautionary excuse. He'll take you, no matter how old or how young, no matter how innocent or how corrupt, no matter your gender, all it takes is a look. Either he looks at you, or you look at him, or you both exchange looks. Either way, his senses will pick you up, and you can't hide. It'll be too late. The amazing cover is by @-blackrogue. The amazing aesthetics in this book are by @mackreadsbooks24 Highest Rankings: 1st in #werewolflove 1st in #fierce 1st in #defiant 1st in #feminism 1st in #monster + many othersComplete

Unwanted Mates (Black Moon Book One)
"He can die 'cause we haven't had sex?" I say as the weight of what she's just told me hits me like a ton of bricks. "The longer the Alpha stays in that state the more dangerous it gets.

To make matter worse one of them is 19 years old human girl who seems to be the first one in years not to show any respect for him...
