Introduction
"Step away from the cat, Little Mate. You belong to me."
He had finally found the mate he had spent a decade of his life looking for, he wouldn't lose her.

She was a woman with her own dreams, fiercely independent and not one to bow down to any man's demands.
"Yes, your reputation preceeds you, the most powerful alpha in the country. But here, you are just another customer.”
But a wolf is a predator; they are programmed to hunt, and an Alpha male, well they don't give up, ever. No matter the disrespect thrown at them by their prey.
He was determined to have her. She was determined not to be had.***
Colt Merrier was an anomaly, she was a shifter without an animal, and she thought she was happy in life. Then he came on the scene, Elijah Lupus. The Alpha of the largest wolf pack in the country, and he is claiming Colt is his!

good story

this storyline is quite interesting! I'm always happy to find new ideas (which does not happen very often, at this point), and this one seems promising also in terms of interactions between the two main characters! on the other hand: Mr. Lupus? really? 😂😂 #whatsapp

I love it when an author doesn’t give us a typical or played out storyline. Not only are we getting a unique story, the main female character is smart and strong. Win, win! #whatsapp

Interesting story. It's first time when I read a story with so many shifters in it. I like her, she is feisty and a good leader. Hope she will accept him as her mate. #whatsapp

I have read this author before and she is a wonderful story teller. This is another strong book with a strong female who isn't just looking for a man. I am looking forward to seeing how their relationship develops. #whatsapp

Right out of the gate this is an “add to library” book! I love the strong female lead and that she is successful and confident on her own. I know I have barely scratched the surface with this book but I can not wait to read more! #whatsapp

Ohh just from the intro I am already looking forward to reading this, I love when the FL makes it hard for the ML and even thou there is a bond, he has to work for it… not big on the submissive type characters for leads, unless there is an actual reason for their submissiveness. Added to my library #whatsapp

Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
755.6k Views · Completed · Lily
"White wolf! Kill that monster!"
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

A Lesson in Magic
2.4m Views · Completed · Kit Bryan
One day I'm dealing with cranky toddlers and parents who work too much to actually parent, the next my life is turned upside down and I'm working in a bar for supernaturals. I might not know how to mix drinks, but strangely enough the skills needed to deal with misbehaving children seem to work well enough on vampires, werewolves and even witches. The good news is this job is interesting and hey, my boss might be a demon but I'm pretty sure that under all the grumpy expressions he is a total softie. The bad news is that humans aren't supposed to know about all this magic stuff and so now I'm magically bound to this bar until I can convince them that I won't go telling everyone. Or I die, whichever comes first. Sadly dying is seeming more and more likely because someone is after me. I don't know who or why but they are dangerous and they have magic. So I'll domy best to survive, and if that means spending some extra time with my scary but gorgeous boss then so be it. I'll convince him to trust me if it's the last thing I do.

Allison was never meant to survive. She was born a siphon in secret, hidden away like a mistake the world was waiting to correct. The Council planned to shape her into a weapon, or erase her before she became one. She was supposed to disappear quietly, another tragedy folded into the past. Instead, she lived. When the truth of her bloodline comes to light, Allison’s carefully held world fractures, and power spills through the cracks whether she’s ready for it or not. Magic answers her pulse. Danger learns her name. And four men begin to orbit her life, each bound by something deeper than choice.
A demon king who would burn realms to keep her safe.
A dragon-shifter whose fire bows to her skin.
A hellhound bound to her soul.
A professor who was never supposed to want her.
And the man who broke for her long before he ever touched her.
Five men. Five obsessions. Five hearts tethered to hers by magic older than the Wall itself.
Hunted, haunted, and newly awakened, Allison is dragged into a rebellion built on blood and belief, the same fight her parents died trying to protect. As enemies close in and desire sharpens into something dangerous, she must decide what kind of power she will become. The weapon the Council always wanted. Or the storm that tears their world apart. Because when Allison rises, kingdoms kneel and when she loves, she loves like war.

"You are absolutely my fucking woman, Dani. Got me?"
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."

"Everyone out," I commanded through gritted teeth. "Now."
"Jade, I need to check your—" the nurse began.
"OUT!" I snarled with enough force that both women backed toward the door.
Once feared by Shadow Organization that drugged me to replicate my abilities into a more controllable version, I had escaped my restraints and detonated their entire facility, ready to die alongside my captors.
Instead, I woke up in a school infirmary with women arguing around me, their voices piercing my skull. My outburst froze them in shock—clearly they hadn't expected such a reaction. One woman threatened as she left, "We'll discuss this attitude when you get home."
The bitter truth? I've been reborn into the body of an overweight, weak, and supposedly dim-witted high school girl. Her life is filled with bullies and tormentors who've made her existence miserable.
But they have no idea who they're dealing with now.
I didn't survive as the world's deadliest assassin by allowing anyone to push me around. And I certainly won't start now.
