Toute ma vie, j'ai été la fille de secours. Ma sœur Béatrice avait tout—l'amour, l'attention, le traitement d'enfant préféré. J'ai eu les restes et des rappels que je n'étais pas assez bien. Jusqu'à ce que je découvre que Niall, magnifique Alpha de la meute voisine, était mon compagnon destiné. Enfin, c'était mon tour d'être choisie. Dieu, j'étais naïve. Quatre ans d'enfer de fiançailles. Me décolorant les cheveux pour correspondre à ses goûts. Me serrant dans des robes étroites, jouant sa femme de ménage personnelle—pour finalement entendre que je ferais une meilleure servante que compagne. Tout parce que son cœur appartenait à ma sœur. Cette nuit-là, j'ai accidentellement renversé leur cadre photo. Il m'a giflée. Fort. Il a dit que je ne serais jamais à sa hauteur. Alors je l'ai giflé en retour, j'ai déchiré leur photo, et j'ai accepté le rejet. Je pensais que c'était fini. Jusqu'à ce que je les surprenne au club, riant de combien mes quatre années d'efforts avaient été pathétiques. Toutes les fiançailles n'étaient que leur jeu malsain. Ivre et furieuse, j'ai fait quelque chose d'imprudent avec mon mystérieux voisin. Alpha Hudson—visage sculpté par les dieux, danger dans chaque ligne parfaitement taillée. Plus important encore, il est l'ennemi juré de mon ex. Alors ? La meilleure nuit de ma vie. Je pensais que c'était une aventure d'un soir pour oublier. Encore une erreur. Il est plus riche que Niall, plus puissant que ma famille, et infiniment plus dangereux. Et il ne me laisse pas partir. Cette fois, je ne serai le second choix de personne.

[Mature Content] "To take back their lost lands, she was the human meat to be given to the beasts." Eloise Ravemont was born a bastard to the Archduke of Beloria, abused by her stepmother and sister, and neglected by her father. Her life takes a turn for the worse when her marriage to the Lycan monarch is announced, and Eloise can only await her dreadful fate. Lycans are apex predators, superior beings, and originators of those horror stories your parents told you about to make you behave. Tales of the Lycan Monarch, Drevon Balthar, were far worse than any combined. They call him a merciless beast and the terror that bested the vampires in war. Eloise has no choice but to tussle with her new reality, and she becomes conflicted when her supposed husband, rumored to be more sinister than any beast, is more of a daydream than a nightmare. Thrust in a castle filled with demons and danger, Eloise must prevail and play the games of the beast, outwitting her foes as well as trying to resist her doting husband.

[Contenu Mature] Qu'est-ce qui pourrait arriver de pire ? C'est ce que je me suis répété pendant des années, vivant sous le même toit que des gens qui étaient répugnés par mon existence même. J'étais la fille illégitime de l'Archiduc de Beloria, née d'une prostituée et méprisée à cause de mes cheveux et de mon corps maladif. Mais le pire est arrivé juste quand je pensais que les dieux en avaient assez de ma misère. Je suis devenue la chair humaine à offrir aux Lycans. Les Lycans sont des prédateurs alpha, des êtres supérieurs, des hommes-bêtes, à l'origine de ces histoires d'horreur que vos parents vous racontaient pour vous faire obéir. Mon père a jugé bon de m'offrir à leur monarque comme moyen de récupérer les terres perdues. J'ai entendu des histoires sur Drevon Balthar, le Monarque Lycan. Elles sont bien pires que toutes les autres réunies. On le décrit comme une bête sans raison, la terreur qui a vaincu les vampires à la guerre et y a mis fin sous son règne. Mais que se passe-t-il lorsque mon supposé mari devient plus un rêve éveillé qu'un cauchemar ?

“That mark on your neck..” he began “No one, must know about the bond between us.” Adina looked at him, startled. “W-what?” “You will cover your neck everyday. You will live as you have and you will never speak of what happened yesterday. I will never acknowledge you as my mate. Never.” Her eyes glistened with unshed tears. “Why? Why did you mark me if you didn’t want me?” “If I had a choice, I wouldn’t even look at you.” He stepped closer, the cold in his eyes crueler than anything she’d ever seen. “Do you really think I’d choose you? A murderer?” His lip curled. “You killed your Alpha’s heir. Do you think anyone would want that as a mate?” ~~~~~ Framed for killing her Alpha’s pup.

A creature that shouldn’t exist. A vampire. And as if resisting that dangerous pull weren’t enough, Celeste’s world shatters during Bloodoak Academy’s Mating Ball... when she discovers she’s mated to four men. Not one. Not two. FOUR. Her arrogant Alpha ex. His calm, calculating Beta brother. A witch who wants nothing to do with her. And the mysterious vampire whose kiss tastes like sin. One girl. Four mates.

This act of compassion sparks a bond with the mermaid, Neri, and earns him the protection of Rhiati, a mysterious Corsair captain.

Atlas was a commoner from Ormolio’s outer slums. When an Eternal-Class Ruin appeared after a thousand years, the Royal side needed someone to enter first and trigger whatever was inside. They did not send a noble heir, a trained Revenant, or someone with value. They sent Atlas. He was meant to enter first, awaken the Boss Monster, and die there. But inside the lower section of the ruin, Atlas found a sealed relic called the Bloodbound Codex. The Codex does not give him power directly. It lets him WRITE his own growth.
