Chapter 1Excerpt

It all started after a lie- which she was not supposed to walk with.

---

The way he carried himself made her knees weak with fear. He had that kind of look that said, "You're going to die today."

A knowing smile crept onto his lips, as if he could read her thoughts.

 

Stepping back, she looked into his intense crimson eyes, trying to match the intensity in them with her gaze.

 

To her shock, he walked towards her, trapping her between the windowsill and him. His hands rested on both sides of her waist, causing her heart to skip a beat.

 

Her senses went on high alert, her eyes widening with the proximity. What was he even trying to do? She thought to herself, her heart racing as she made sure not to fall out of the window while distancing herself from his looming presence.

 

His hands crawled on her thin waist over her dress, sending shivers down her spine with the sensation. Her breathing quickened when she noticed how his eyes seemed to bore into her soul. His eyes were turning darker, almost as if they were black instead of red.

 

Holding her waist in his firm grip, the man drew closer to her, filling the distance between them. She instinctively put her hands on his chest, hoping to create some space between them. But instead of warmth, she felt an icy chill emanating from his body beneath her palm, spreading throughout her body like electricity, stiffening her entire frame.

 

Without giving her time to protest, with a swift motion, he lifted her up and gently placed her on the windowsill. Her legs dangled in the air, and her hands trembled with the change in atmosphere. She bit her lip nervously, her teeth leaving her lips bruised.

 

As he leaned in closer, she instinctively recoiled, her head tilting back slightly. Her lips parted, wanting to speak, but it felt like something was choking her. She gulped down her fear, waiting anxiously for his next move.

 

His lips grazed her ear, his breath sending a chill down her spine as he whispered, "Feeling scared, little liar? You should be, considering what's coming next."

 

His dusk-like, husky voice sent shivers down her spine, his words echoing in her mind. Confusion clouded her thoughts as her lips parted, ready to question what he meant by that. 

 

Before she could voice her thoughts, he made a swift movement, pushing her body hard enough to lose her balance and fall towards the hard floor below.

 

Elestria was stupefied by the sudden change of events. One moment, she was sitting on the windowsill, and the next, she was airborne, the ground rushing up to meet her.

Reborn As Cursed Alpha's Mate

What happens when a goddess falls in love with a shifter? Asara; the goddess of love, was punished by her father, the god of thunder. Her crime being falling in love with a mortal shifter Alpha. To pay for her sins she was reborn as Cassandra LeBlanc; a mortal Princess in the magical Kingdom of Speldaria. Her family and kingdom, except her middle sister, shunned her for she was born without any magical abilities and she had no recollections of her true identity. Her betrothed, the powerful mage commander of the Speldaria, was unbothered by her. He wished for someone strong. Cassandra’s life was toppled when she was gifted a warrior slave by the mighty Alpha of Dusartine. She was asked to take part in the Yearly Arena Event by collaborating with the warrior. Cassandra who hated ‘The Arena’ with her very breath. A place where blood flowed like wine and life was cheaper than the very air they breathed didn't understand her purpose in it. On top of that, the mysterious warrior affected her in unimaginable ways. His hypnotic gaze unsettled her. His rare essence overwhelmed her. His muscular bronzed body consumed her with sinful thoughts. Even the dreams of her past life plagued her. When ‘The Arena' began the hidden agendas and underlying truths came to light and Cassandra was played a hand of fate. She was left with no choice but to give in and choose a path. The question would be. How will Cassandra grapple once she learns of the curse placed on her? Will she be able to obtain her magical abilities and stand up to her father? Who will help her along the journey? ~Excerpt~ Then she felt him, all of him. All his ruggedness. The strength of his arm. The softness of his lips. The grip of his hand. The warmth of his breath. Every muscle in her body went taut at the implications of sleeping in a man’s arms. She had never slept in a male’s embrace before. Her whole skin tingled like tiny sparks dancing on the very parts that connected with him. The crevices of her brain had these memories which weren't hers. This touch somehow didn't seem foreign to her. She felt safe in his soothing embrace and didn't wish to push him away and yet she knew this was far from appropriate. Cassandra tried to wriggle out of his hold, his arms seemed to be built from iron for they wouldn't budge. The light garment she had worn had lifted from her milky thigh baring it as his bronzed muscular one was draped on it. And now she could sense something poking her back. Her eyes suddenly expanded from the realisation and Cassandra fully panicked. “Let go!” She voiced out, heavily. Siroos slowly lifted his leg and slackened his hold on her waist so she could shuffle away. He had awakened when she had stiffened for the first time but wished to behold what she would try. With eyes blown wide she stole a glance towards the man who had her wrapped in his embrace like a precious treasure, his treasure. His molten gold eyes had flickered open and there was this softness and want with which he stared at her. Those soft brown curls cascaded over his eyes as he forgot to blink, watching the timeless beauty that she was. Her one-of-a-kind fragrance was a torture to his senses. How he wished to grab her dainty ankle, pull her from it and have her sprawled underneath him. To kiss the very skin that oozed such scent which was driving him insane. Instead, he bent his arm and placed it under his cheek using it like a pillow to watch her with desire-filled eyes. The awkward lull between them prolonged as Cassandra cleared her throat. “Did you have to climb on me to sleep?” “It wasn't intentional but was certainly enticing and definitely won't be the last time.” His deeply hypnotic voice was even more alluring this early in the morning as it resonated all around her. The book cover is mine.

The Dragon King's Chosen Bride

What exactly does it mean to be his bride? *** Every year, in each of the seven villages that made up the great Kingdom of Ignas, a Choosing Ritual was conducted. During this Chosing Ritual, one of the ladies in the village would be chosen to be the dreaded Dragon King's Bride. No one knew exactly why the ritual was being performed every year or what happened to the brides that had been chosen in the past. Was he turning them into slaves? Feeding them to his dragon? Or was he... feeding on them? That couldn't be ruled out. After all, there were rumours that the king wasn't like them, that he wasn't human. Yet the question relentlessly troubled the people's heart. What was he using them for?! But they dared not question the King, afraid of what fate daring to go against him would be. Anyways, none of these was Belladonna's business. Although it was her village's turn to produce a bride this year, she was certain she wouldn't get chosen. Why? Well, because she had a plan and she was absolutely certain it wouldn't fail her... or would it? *** Note - This novel contains mature content. - Cover isn't mine. Full credit to the artist.
