Her mother died giving birth to her, her father turned into a deranged, violating wolf and to top it off she was forced to get married to an Alpha who acts more wolf than human. In this world where the strong reigns surpreme, how was a weak wolf like Starr supposed to survive? Especially with a recessive wolf that rarely interacted with her. Will her tormenting ever be over? 《Short Preview》 "You're marked by another," he stated cooly, his eyes drilling into the puncture wound that decorated my neck. Despite the calm his voice carried, my body shuddered at the pressure behind his words and the hidden dangers that laid beneath his gaze. I trembled and averted my eyes with pursed lips, trying my best to be brave. "So what? I'm a mated wolf now, which means I was never meant to be yours." His eyes narrowed in on my face as they swirled with reckless abandon. "What was made for me will forever be mine. That pup that you went and played with can't stop me from tearing that mark off your shoulder." My eyes snapped up to his in surprise as I gawked in disbelief... and a little ounce of foreboding at the man before me, "y-you can't do that!" He raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Are you gonna stop me?" I couldn't help but retort, "My mate would kill you!" His voice heightened as he finally lost his cool and snarled, "I'M YOUR MATE! There isn't a person on this earth that could kill me, let alone your bastard. You should be worried about what I'll do to HIM for forcing himself on MY WOMAN!" I flinched and took a few cautious steps backwards. Then I whispered, "who are you?" The man's lips tilted up into a ridiculing smile as he replied, "I'm the part of your soul that you chose to forsake."Complete

"Why are you doing this? Why did she put me up with some slut?" he snarled getting in my face. "You are no fit to be a Luna. I should just reject you right now." My face was blank as I looked at him. "You have no idea how wrong you are," I replied. "And go ahead and reject me. It'll not phase me one bit. I had not planned on joining a pack or having a mate." With that, I started to walk away, before I turned back and glaring at him. "Also, get to know me first. You might be surprise as to what I can offer." And with that, I walked out of Starbucks, upset that I didn't get pa- I mean... laid. At least... I smirked pulling out my mate's wallet from the back of my skirt and looking at it. I did get his money. ______________________________________________________________ Skylar Ross, mainly known as Sky, hasn't had the best of pasts. To begin with, she is half human and half wolf.

Not mate, mute. There's a difference
*editing* "As soon as he touched my arms sparks started to run along them. I missed him. The bond between us had grown stronger over the time apart. My heart was skipping to an unfamiliar beat and as soon as I was through the hole I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him to me connecting his lips with mine. He kissed me back instantly. For what felt like hours, that I didn’t want to end, we kissed in the tiny broom closet entrance to the basement. I had no idea love could be so wonderful. I am absolutely, without a doubt, in love with Troy Quill." They're both future alphas, they're mates, but she doesn't believe in mates. Bluebell West is mute, she accepts that.

Troy will do anything to win Bluebell's heart and make her believe that the love of mates is true, even if she isn't a werewolf. She may be future alpha of a legendary pack, but her mixed bloodline makes her only part werewolf, part human, and part/all dryad.Complete

Miss Me Bastards?
THIS WAS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT WRITING, READ AT OWN RISK! THERE ARE MANY ERRORS, AS MAJORITY OF IT IS UNEDITED. IF YOU WISH TO READ A MORE PUNCTUALLY AND GRAMMATICALLY CORRECTED BOOK CHECK OUT 'Caine's Love' Katy Rose is the name. Rejection is what her life consists of. Rejected by her family: dad, mum, cousin. Rejected by her pack. Rejected by her Mate: known as Alpha of the Blue Moon pack goes by the name Alex Stone. Rejected by her school peers. The day Katy ran away and had enough was the day she made a promise to herself. 'I will be back. With a new life. I will make everyone regret what they put me through. I will come back strong not weak.' That very day she met a new pack: her family, who trained Katy and helped Katy get back on her feet. Soon enough she realised that pack known as the Midnight Moon pack was her family. How does she react when she finds out a secret that could change her life? What does she do to protect her loved ones? Sequel: 'Rise of the Royal Wolf', read this book before reding the next otherwise you will not understand a thing! PS. there is a massive twist at the end of the series which is why I highly reccommend reading both books! _______ All rights reserved.
