werewolf

Ayla has been running for years. No pack. No family. No answers—just the constant feeling that everyone is after her. Now she’s been spotted, the werewolf world is moving. That’s not all that’s been awakened, though. A powerful bloodline wants her back. Rival packs want what she is. And the ones who can’t claim her are ready to break her. To survive, Ayla has to uncover who cursed her—and why—before she becomes the prize in a war she never chose. But the most dangerous question isn’t who’s hunting her… It’s what does fate has in store for her.

Allison, a black-haired, black-eyed wolf, has been ostracized by her pack, mistaken for a witch due to her unusual appearance. She perseveres, longing for freedom and true love. Her supposed true love betrays her with her despised sister. Her parents, indifferent to her plight, force her to participate in the Wolf King's bride selection, a death sentence in her eyes. Disillusioned, Allison escapes to a chaotic bar, where she saves an Alpha under the influence of an aphrodisiac. This Alpha, unbeknownst to her, is her mate. They spend a passionate night together, but Allison, determined to sever ties with the wolf community, flees before he wakes. She builds a life in human society and gives birth to triplet Alpha pups. Just as she settles into a peaceful life, a call from her past shatters her illusion. She must return to the wolf pack with her children and face an uncertain fate. How will the story unfold? How will Allison confront the Wolf King's wrath, especially after secretly bearing his children? Will the pack accept her as their queen despite her witch-like appearance?

His free hand strayed. They burned as they slid across my waist. And higher. Dangerously close to the under curve of my breast. “The thing with girls like you, Maisie, is that you think all you need to fix to be picked is your appearance. I don’t doubt that you’d make a great fuck, but you’ll never be the type of woman men want to keep. The kind to be made Luna. You’re the kind that’s only good enough to fuck, but never good enough to be chosen.” *** After getting rejected by her mate, Cole Hayes, the future Alpha of the pack, and nearly losing her life from the pain of it, Maisie Adams and her best friends concoct a fail safe plan to get back at him and save her from dying. Phase I: Get a make over and become the hottest thing in Ashfall. Phase II: Make out with a hot stranger. Phase III: Get a boyfriend, someone hotter, someone older, and lose your V-card. Phase IV: Get Cole Hayes to apologize. Phase V: Reject Cole Hayes. What they do not, however, account for is Cole Hayes falling for Maisie and being unable to let her go. Even worse, they sure as hell couldn’t have known Maisie would catch the attention of the four Lycan royals at the academy and accidentally bond with them!

Amara, a wealthy aristocrat's well-bred daughter with a secret to hide, is thrown into despair when her world is suddenly shattered after discovering she isn’t the Caldwells' biological daughter. It was incredibly convenient for her father to discard years of love, devotion, and family ties, quickly sending her as a marriage tribute to a Werewolf Prince after receiving an invitation that, according to the Peace Treaty between Werewolves and Humans, required one of his daughters. It no longer mattered that she wasn’t truly a Caldwell, nor that she was already in love with someone else. So, on the night of her planned elopement with her lover, her fate with the monster was ruthlessly sealed. Forget that the Alpha Prince is a cursed monster—yet, why is he always in her face, treating her like his perfect plaything to pass the time? But most importantly, if he truly doesn't care about her, why do those who cross her suddenly disappear or get punished? — Excerpt: Amara could feel the tension in the way Alexander stood before her—the restraint in his silence, the weight of his attention pressing against her body. He shouldn’t be this close to her after cornering her against a tree. “Do you know what happens when I want something?” he asked, his voice dangerously controlled. Her breath trembled, but she shook her head. “I—I don’t know.” “I take it.” Amara inhaled sharply as she lifted her gaze to meet his dark, conflicted eyes, burning with something that made her heart stutter. “Then why haven’t you?” she whispered. His gaze dropped briefly to her lips. “Because if I cross that line,” he said, “I won’t stop.” “Then cross it.” Her voice was barely audible. Instantly, the restraint in Alexander’s eyes shattered. He lowered his head and claimed her mouth in a desperate, hungry kiss.

This is a war romantasy of forbidden bonds between wolves, vampires and witches. VOLUME I : THE HOWLS OF HIS LOVE. War is coming. For a thousand years, witches, vampires, and werewolves have hated each other, each race waiting for the moment the fragile peace finally shatters. Malachai Saint Von Jhering, known to the world as Kai, the Alpha King of the Wolf Race, is hiding a truth that could destroy them all. He is not just a wolf. He is wolf, vampire, and witch. A tribreed born from bloodlines that were never meant to mix. If the supernatural world discovers what he truly is, every race will hunt him, and the war that follows will burn the world to ash. Chloe never expected to be bound to the most feared Alpha alive. But as ancient secrets begin to surface and alliances crumble, she finds herself caught in a conspiracy far bigger than any pack. Because Kai is not just the key to ending the war. He might be the reason it begins. And when the world turns against them, only one truth remains: "Let them hate us. It has always been me and you from the start." VOLUME II: THE LYCAN WAR The war has begun. Humans have created a virus capable of wiping out every werewolf alive, and they plan to use it. But they are not the only ones searching for the weapon. Witches want it. Vampires want it. And the Lycans will burn the world before they let it fall into the wrong hands. Now Kai and Chloe must race against time to destroy the virus before it becomes the spark that ignites the greatest war the supernatural world has ever seen. Because some secrets can end a war. Others can end the world. VOLUME III: To save the werewolf race, Kai now known as Malachai, attempts to unite werewolves, witches and vampires as the supreme leader to wage a war on the humans and force them into submission. Chloe is the key to this new world. The hope of a better future. All she has to do is stand by Malachai's side. It's easier said than done as she navigates a world that shouldn't be fueled by rage and revenge. VOLUME IV: THE FINAL BATTLE: One last dance between Chloe and Malachai. The end is near.

A mysterious black nuclear explosion struck the sea—and the world fell apart in hours. A toxic, radioactive cloud swallowed Southern Europe and North Africa. Thousands died instantly. Millions fell sick. Some… changed. Humanity was no longer alone. Monsters unlike anything known emerged, tearing through cities in chaos. Fear outweighed mercy. Governments decided to “cleanse” anyone touched by the radiation… But among the survivors, extraordinary powers awakened. They united under a single banner: The Core Alliance. Their goal—protect themselves… and every powerless victim the world had cast aside. In the shadows, werewolves rose to defend their tribes, and vampires emerged, claiming the shattered Earth. Where did they come from? What do they want with the black explosion? And what fate awaits this broken world? The Core Alliance drifts through a battlefield where factions fight for survival and dominance… while the fate of the Earth hangs by a thread.

“Get out of my house!” her father roared. Five years ago, Anastasia Tillman was dragged down the stairs and called a disgrace. Her stepsister cried fake tears. Her stepmother smiled. Her own father slapped her and disowned her without listening to a single word. She was accused of selling her body for money. She tried to speak. No one believed her. That same night, she walked away from her pack with nothing but a small suitcase… and a secret growing inside her. The Alpha’s child. Five years later, she returns not as the broken girl they threw away, but as a quiet, successful woman raising a brilliant little boy on her own. She does not want revenge. She does not want their money. She only wants peace. But fate is cruel. The powerful Alpha who once held her in the dark is now her boss. He does not remember her face. But when he stands close to her, his wolf stirs. Because he remembers her scent. The girl who trembled beneath him. The girl whose tears he never forgot. There is only one problem. Another woman has already claimed to be that girl. And the Alpha believes her. Now Anastasia must work under the man who unknowingly fathered her son… while watching another woman try to take her place. She will not beg. She will not chase. But when the truth comes out when the Alpha learns that the quiet little boy with silver-blue eyes is his heir The entire kingdom will shake. Because the girl they threw away… Is the Luna they can’t live without.

  “You were mine once,” Aiden murmured, pinning her to the wall. “And you will be mine again.”   Alina laughed softly, even as tears burned her eyes. “You chose another woman, Aiden. Now you don’t get to touch what you abandoned.”   Three years of silence. Three years of cold sheets. Three years of being the "Placeholder Luna."   Alina knew the terms: marry the powerful Alpha Aiden, provide an heir, and disappear when the contract expired. She played her part perfectly. But when Aiden’s childhood sweetheart returns to claim her throne, the rejection isn't just a formality—it’s a betrayal that leaves Alina shattered and exiled to the pack’s dangerous fringes.   Then, an accident comes that almost claims her life. Instead of death, she finds a savior: a scarred rogue, hunted by every pack in the territory. Where Aiden saw a contract, this stranger sees a Queen. Where Aiden saw a wolfless Omega, he sees a mate.   As the Rogue’s obsession with Alina grows, so does the danger. But back at the palace, Aiden is realizing that breaking the bond didn't stop the hunger. He wants his wife back. He wants his son home.   But the Rogue doesn't play by pack rules, and he has no intention of letting his rescued treasure go back to the man who threw her away.   The Alpha wants his legacy. The Rogue wants her soul. And Alina? She’s done playing by everyone else’s rules.

Ariana Sinclair thought losing Kael would be the worst pain she could endure. She was wrong. The bond that once tied her to Kael Vaughn, the feared Storm Wolf, has shattered… and in its place, something ancient claimed her as Bride. The moment Ariana’s Fifth Blood awakened, an ancient entity returned and marked her as the one it had waited lifetimes to reclaim. Kingdoms now hunt her power, monsters kneel before her scent, and the man who once would have burned the world for her has been taken beyond her reach. Kael was supposed to protect her. Instead, he has become the chosen Guardian of the darkness rising against her, the one meant to deliver her into its hands. Across forgotten lifetimes, he has found Ariana again and again. Loved her. Lost her. Betrayed her. Killed for her. Now he is gone with Mira, a woman who can control the power inside him as if it was always hers to command. With their bond broken and war closing in, Ariana is left with one terrifying truth: If Kael returns, he may not come back as the man she loved. He may return as the weapon forged to claim her for the entity that calls her Bride. But Ariana was never born to kneel. And if fate wants a bride, it may have chosen the wrong woman.

WARNING; RATED 21+, do not venture it if you’re unprepared for a three/four way erotica adventure. He grabbed my hair roughly, making my whimper. “You’re such a little whore, getting aroused for your mate.”  “You’re happy to see him right? Are you going to sneak off to fuck him in the night? Is that why you’ve been happy about this trip?” He ordered and I shook my head. “Answer me you bitch!” He barked. My lips quivered. “No… No… Please.” I wailed and he scoffed as he let go of me roughly. —————- one omega, three alphas and one rogue king. After my mother’s death and my mate’s betrayal, I became nothing, just a powerless wolf, discarded and sold to his ruthless stepbrothers. But everything changes when I uncover the truth, my mate didn’t just betray me… he wants me for the same reason he murdered my mother. Life adds crazy twist when I find out I’m mated to four brothers, three alphas and one rogue king. it’s a struggle as I have to choose between all four of them. Now, hunted by both wolves and humans, my hidden identity begins to unravel, making me a target. They think I’m weak, they think I’ll break. But while they chase me, I’m planning their downfall.

Two centuries have passed since the Great War ended, and humans believe they live in harmony with werewolves. But the truth is darker—werewolves rule as supreme beings while humans exist in ignorant bliss, never knowing their real position in this new hierarchy. To preserve this delicate illusion, select humans are chosen annually from different districts to enter Lunaris Academy, an elite institution offering prestige, power, and marriage to alpha royalty. These “fortunate” souls are celebrated as the chosen ones, destined to become luna and claim their place among the powerful. This year brings an unexpected selection: Violet Purple. For a girl raised by a fallen woman in the shadows of society, this opportunity seems like salvation—or so she’s been led to believe. Lunaris Academy shatters every illusion. The carefully constructed lies crumble as Violet discovers humans aren’t partners but prey in a vicious hierarchy. The academy serves as an elegant prison where students become entertainment for alpha predators who relish their twisted competitions. Violet’s arrival doesn’t go unnoticed. She draws the hungry gaze of the academy’s most lethal rulers—the Terror Four. The Alpha of the North, South, East, and West each command their own brand of cruelty, their own ruthless appetites. These apex predators circle her like sharks scenting blood, each more savage and calculating than the rest. They assume she’ll submit like countless others before her, that she’ll crumble under their relentless pressure and join their collection of broken playthings. They’re about to learn how wrong they are. Violet Purple bows to no one.

✓ MASSIVE RELEASE ON THE LAST DAY OF EACH MONTH.✓ BLURB: “We are sorry Maria, we never meant to hurt you. Come back to us!" They all thundered. But it was too late, I was determined to make them Pay. *** I am Maria Moon, casted out of my Pack at the age of eighteen. All because of a tradition— one that states, that which ever family the Alpha's mate comes from, any other female wolf of same status is cast out. But it all felt wrong, It wasn't supposed to be me but her— my step sister— Patricia Moon. “I, Darren Copper, Alpha of the Frost moon pack, hereby declare that Maria Moon is no longer a member of this pack!” I pleaded for them to see the truth but no one cared, they were all blinded by their love for her. I became a rogue, wandered about for days and was unfortunate to attacked by the older rogues. And even more unfortunate to be saved by the quadruplet Alpha's, my Pack rival Alpha's. *** “Isn't she the Beta's daughter of Frost moon pack?" Damien growled as he turned to his brothers. “Definitely, she looks the same even after five years!" Adrien replied as he squatted, cupping my chin harshly on his palm. “She is definitely a spy, let's kill her!" Davian roared, stretching his claws, his stance ready to slaughter. “Don't Davian!" Aidan the oldest amongst the quadruplet echoed, “That’s all the more reason we should keep her close, letting her die is to easy.” He turned to the guards beside him, “Take her to the Pack, she is our Personal maid." Adrien chuckled lightly, a sly smirk appearing across his lips. “Nice idea Aidan. We would make her suffer!" CONTENT WARNING.

#Top 20 Webnovel Best Sellers 2021, 2022, 2023, and in 2024 #### History is said to be written by the victors. If so, how about Earth's history? Two millennia ago, a young boy named Emery met a tragic fate. In his final moments, he was transmigrated and accepted into the Universe's most prestigious school of magic. “You are among the chosen few from thousands of human worlds. Whether you seize this opportunity or not, is up to you. You are at Magus Academy, the pinnacle of humanity's ingenuity.

Each year they returned to Earth to grow, seek revenge, save the princess, conquer the world, and become Earth's Greatest Magus. Their names are still etched in our history books to this day. Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.

(R-18 and dark themes, you have been warned.) Blurb: During my incarceration by my mate, I see a man leaning against the wall of the dungeon with his arms and legs coiled with heavy iron chains. Dressed only in tattered rags of a black robe his ghostly white skin is mostly on display. Tattoos like smoke crawl all the way from his neck to the side of his handsome and deeply chiselled face, but it's the eyes that have me in a trance. Deep red like the freshly spilt blood, such rich shade, and they stare directly at me with such intensity that I forget to breathe. My hand grabs the iron bar, and I steady myself as his curved lips move and he utters only one word to make my world crash and my magic lose control. “Mate!” My world shatters at his words. "You can see me?” He asks next, a voice calmer and yet deeper than Mariana Trench. It whispers all around me, murmuring against my skin as if trying to awaken something sleeping. “Yes, why shouldn't I be able to?” I question, slightly confused. A crease descends on my forehead. "No one else can," he answers with a wounded smile that wrecks my heart.

But the twist of fate, deception and seduction from the man who is supposed to refer her to the Orion Academy leaves her with a curse and a tainted reputation. A curse which prevents her mate/mates from recognising her and prevents Amaia from informing them of who she is to them. As it turns out, Amaia is mated to hybrid Alphas of Orion, but none of them can feel the mate bond, and they believe she wants to seduce them. “Have some dignity, Amaia. You abandoned your mate and are now trying your seduction techniques on me. I have a fiancée.” Glares Alnilam, her first mate. “Don't look at me like that, lassie. I am saving myself for my mate.” Winks Alnitak, her second mate. “Stay away from me. You are not my mate,” scolds Mintaka, her third mate. “I will bring a garland constructed from your ex-mate's bones.

"You think you can just fuck me and then go spread your legs for my father?" He grabbed my hair and yanked me to him. I stumbled forward. I tried to pull away. He just gripped harder, pulling until it actually hurt. "You already had me." My voice was shaking. I hated that it was shaking. "Both of you did." I forced myself to look at him.

“For years I have tried to tell you I was innocent, and what did you do?” “Briar, please,” Cassian tried to say. “It’s not like that―” “Like what?” I spat. “Not like you’ve tormented me my whole life? Not like you’ve used me and tried to have me killed?” “There was a reason for it,” Rowan tried to say. His eyebrows were furrowed together tightly as he took a step forward. He reached for my hand, and I quickly stepped back. Hurt flashed across his eyes. “We didn’t know―” “Of course you didn’t,” I said with a humorless laugh. “All you did was listen to the lies Violet told you. Even though I am your fated mate, you’ve ignored all my pleas to just listen to what I had to say.” “Briar, please listen to us,” Soren said. His eyes were red with desperation. “Please give us another chance.” “No,” I said, shaking my head. “I’m done waiting. I’m done hurting.” I met their gaze, mustering all the strength I had. I ignored the way their mark on my neck burned in protest. “You’ve made your bed,” I said. “Now it’s time to lie in it.” *** Briar Argyris was born into power, the youngest daughter of the revered Beta family of the Shadowclaw Pack―until the day she vanished. Kidnapped as a child and presumed dead, Briar returned years later, broken and bloodied at the border of her homeland. But her family had already moved on. Her sister, Willow, had grown into a prodigal daughter. As such, there was no room for the forgotten daughter. From the moment she came home, Briar was treated like a curse. Her presence seemed to poison Willow, and as such, Briar was forced to stay far away from her―in the omegas’ quarters. When Willow supposedly died, Briar's fate was sealed. The pack believed she was the murderer, and no one was willing to listen to her pleas. Until the Moon Goddess intervened. Right before her execution―her 18th birthday―Briar's destiny was revealed. She was the fated mate of not one, but three Alphas. Rowan. Soren. Cassian Hadeon. Childhood friends of Willow. Heirs of the Shadowclaw Pack. And her greatest tormentors. They wanted nothing to do with her―convinced she had destroyed the girl they loved, and fueled by the lies of Violet, Willow’s best friend. To them, Briar was nothing but a cruel joke of fate. Trapped in a bond she didn’t choose, hated by the men fate bound her to, Briar is determined to survive―even if her heart shatters in the process. Because the truth is still buried. And when it finally surfaces, the Alphas will learn that the girl they rejected is not only their true mate―she’s the key to everything they thought they lost. But will Briar still want them back after everything they've done? After all, the moon shines brighter outside the Shadowclaw Pack. Just because the triplets are dumb enough to let their fated mate go, doesn't mean that others will do the same... *** Updates 2-4 times a week for the month of April. Daily updates starting in May.
