Bound to the Triplet Alphas

"Aria," he said softly. "Today is your birthday." It wasn't a question, but I nodded nevertheless. "The moon is full tonight," he added, his voice quiet. "You will attend the ceremony." "Of course, Elder," I replied, puzzled. All eighteen-year-olds attended the ceremony. It was essential. He leaned in, smelling gently. "You already feel it, don't you? "The change." My heartbeat skipped. "What change?" Elder Malin's eyes narrowed. "Interesting. "Very interesting." He reached inside his pocket and retrieved a little pouch. "Wear this tonight." I accepted it hesitantly. Inside was a simple moonstone pendant with a leather cord. "But this is for—" "Wear it," he interjected. "Hide it under your clothes if you must, but wear it." Moonstones were precious. They aided our connection to the Moon Goddess during ceremonies. However, they were only given to wolves from influential families (Alphas and Betas). Not Omegas like me. "Why?" I questioned. Elder Malin glanced at Mira before returning his attention to me. "Because someone is harboring secrets about you, child. And tonight, those secrets may be revealed." ~ I never mattered in our pack. Omegas like me serve, submit, and survive. We don't dream of love. We don't dream of power. She was the future Luna. I was just the girl who watched from the shadows. But everything changed on my 18th birthday. I felt the bond. I met my mate. One of the Alpha's sons. But the Alpha has triplets, and I felt the mate bond with all three and it seems the three of them felt it too — three perfect warriors, three powerful Alphas, three secrets buried beneath the surface. One of them is my destiny. One of them is lying. And one of them might be the death of me. The Moon Goddess doesn't make mistakes... but this time, I think she might've given me too much to handle.

Princess Yetunde: Life, Death, and Rebirth

Eighteen years old, this is the age most princess, my sister's, were sold off, ohh sorry, I meant married off. For parents that keep Omoaanre (A kept child) or (pure girl), it's an age the parents look forward to but not for me it's a day I dread the most. A day I'll be thrown into a different world, and expected to marry a man I never knew, nor seen. Expected to make my own family and be a perfect wife. Not that I know a different way. I've been tutured and trained for this only. Omoaanre are girls that have never seen the sun, never walked on the ground, virgins and never seen a guy apart from your nuclear family. For a princess it's goes without saying that we're one. Not everyone can keep Omoaanre, and girls that are out of their rooms before marriage are considered unpure, their family are looked down upon and can only marry a poor man. Born under a rare eclipse in the ancient kingdom of Oyo-Moba, Princess Yetunde was never destined for an ordinary life—even if everyone tried to make her believe otherwise. Sheltered, revered, and raised as an Omoaanre—a "kept girl" untouched by sunlight, soil, or the eyes of men—Yetunde is trained to be the perfect wife, not the powerful woman she is meant to become. At eighteen, she's chosen as the political bride of a foreign nobleman: Lord Marcus Valerian, a pale, brooding duke from the empire of Saint Liora. Cold, cursed, and carrying secrets of his own, Marcus sees their marriage as nothing more than a contract. Yetunde? She sees it as exile. But the night she steps into his world, her first life ends. And something ancient within her wakes. Now reborn with fragmented memories, strange powers, and a spine she didn’t know she had, Yetunde must navigate a world of foreign customs, mystical bloodlines, and inconvenient feelings for the man she was forced to marry. Their cultures clash hilariously. Their desires simmer dangerously. And the deeper she digs into her past lives, the more she realizes: She wasn’t just born to be someone’s wife. She was born to rewrite fate. Romantic. Witty. Magical. The Life, Death, and Rebirth of Princess Yetunde is a spicy, slow-burn, interracial fantasy romance that blends Yoruba royal culture with ancient curses, sweet love after marriage, and a heroine who learns that being "pure" has nothing to do with staying quiet. Welcome to Princess Morenikeji's Life, her Death and Rebirth.

The Devil's Son and His Fated Bride

*Who would have thought a precious, legitimate princess was forced to secretly marry a predator in the middle of the night when the silver moon shone brightly in the middle of the starry sky? Warning: Epic fantasy ROMANCE+++ If you want to know how the animosity between vampires and werewolves had truly started, this is mandatory to read this story. The FMC is a beast tamer. The MMC is the Lord of Shadow. __ The night the prince arrived to claim her, Reneira braced herself for the inevitable circumstances. However, nothing could have prepared her for the truth that this wasn’t just a marriage. She was just a pawn to win yet another war, a cord to fasten an alliance. Her new husband was a sweet torment, an immortal, god-like bully disguised in an impossibly beautiful human form with no rival. His every gaze felt like a punishment, and his sinful aura tempted her in ways she never expected. This god of lust refused to touch her or accept her as his true wife. Believing that her dignity was lost forever, she resigned herself to her fate, hoping to make a home in the hell she’d been thrown into. But fate, as it often did play, had other plans. ~*~ “Don’t even think about seducing me by licking your lips like that, doe-eye!” He breathed in her ear as he joined her in bed, shirtless, his muscular abdomen rippling with each movement. “I… I’m not doing it on purpose!” she stammered, her breath catching in her chest when he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her body against him. His mouth hovered near her temple, his lips grazing her ear shell. “I’m going to make you forget what happened today. My body is yours as compensation, wife.” ~*~ Volume one: House of Poison and Bone. Completed Volume Two: House of Fire and Wings. Ongoing... Volume three: House of Beasts and Ruins. Coming this Summer... Tags: Romance, Fantasy, Epic, The Devil's Son, The Prince of Hell, the lord of Shadow,

New World, New Life: I Became A Bigshot In The Ancient World

Excerpt Aristia could not help but stare at the platinum blonde a few steps in front of her. She seemed to sparkle with a glow that drew people in around her. Something that only happened to the main character of a novel. [Is that stupid book sure I'm the female lead?] She thought, her jaws almost going slack. At this point, she was sure she was deluding herself— or the book was deluding her. She didn't know why, but she already disliked the girl. [This is definitely not jealousy.] She rubbed her brows, watching how the innocent, naive looking girl exuding female lead aura was being flocked around already by others. "Fuck, I'm in deep shit!" — Excerpt Two "What do you mean this is where I belong?!!!" She asked incredulously. "It is the truth. It might sound extremely absurd and unbelievable, but it is the truth." He said, his voice tinged with helplessness. "Hell, it is absurd." She threw her hands up in the air exasperatedly. The seriousness in his eyes told her he wasn't at all joking or messing with her. He was damn serious. "Ugh. What shit am I involved in?" She asked frustratingly to no one in particular at the news she was still trying to wrap her head around. *** Aristia Andrews had just come back home from work and prepared to go to sleep, when she was given a novel. Nothing strange about that though, huh? But just after she had completed the novel, she woke up to find herself tossed into a whole new world. Taken from her world and the life she deemed perfect, and tossed into a not-so-ideal world. Now part of royalty, she has to get accustomed to living in a backward world of Kings and Queens, Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Viscounts and Barons. Just the titles and hierarchy were enough to make her smart head spin. With beautiful and loving parents and relatives, a cute younger brother, loyal servants and a smart brain, join Aristia as she enjoys eating and making new and delicious cuisines, forms unique friendships, and creates successful businesses. However, she finds all is not as she thought it was; there just might be something bigger than she expected that the book did not reveal— something that could turn her well balanced world upside down. Now... she has a lot of mysteries surrounding her to unfold, and secrets to uncover, and perhaps she'll find a dash of love along the way. But most importantly... why are these obviously important characters not leaving her alone? It wasn't supposed to be like this...
