Winning the Alpha's Heart

Winning the Alpha's Heart

Born of Alpha bloodline, Twilight is destined to succeed her father in ruling the Silver Pack. The young, free-spirited alpha female is the strongest warrior in the pack, surpassing even her own father, and never cared about whether or not she would find her mate. Until the day she found him, the young Alpha-to-be of a neighbouring pack. Only to have him reject her for his bed buddy. Enraged and broken-hearted, she ran away and got severely injured along the way. Suddenly, she woke up in an unfamiliar place, only to find that her second-chance mate, Takumi, saved her. But her now cold-hearted self refuses to accept another mate but he won't give up that easily. Can Takumi win the Alpha's heart? Here’s a little sneak peek: “Imagine the one person who was literally made for you, supposed to be your other half and complete you in a way that no one else can and yet wants nothing to do with you. I’m over it, but I still feel like a monster for how I reacted to it. I know it happened a long time ago, but I still hate myself for it. His dad said it was ok, but I think he only said it to make me feel less guilty and deep down he hates me. And I'm pretty sure everyone else feels the same way.” It was then that she felt a little wetness on her face; she didn't realize that tears were streaming down her cheeks the whole time. That's when she broke down into more tears. Takumi pulled her into a hug.

Chapter: Hidden facts in Book 1
1) The original title was “Winning the Luna’s Heart” and it’s a little obvious why I changed it ;)2) I started and finished the book when I was 16 (2019) on wattpad but took it down cuz it was a little cringe. It was only this year (2022) that I got a proper editor and made a lot of great changes3) Originally, Matako was never part of the story at all. They were going to break up but it was going to be caused by Takumi coming home late and drunk and then accidentally calling Yuri's name while he was having sex with Twilight. Yuri was who he was supposed to cheat on Twilight with. But I changed my mind.4) Yuri was never supposed to be nice to Twilight. She was actually supposed to try to steal Takumi from Twilight hence the reason for the first fact.5) Yuri was also straight and the engagement was supposed to be broken up because she got pregnant with her boyfriend’s baby6) Takumi was supposed to get a vasectomy but I realised that it’s fiction so I decided to play by my own rules

When she got home, she went straight to the bathroom before Takumi could say anything. After a few minutes, she got out with a bandaged hand.“Sorry about the mirror.” She told him. “Before I rushed in, did you need to tell me something?”“No. I just wanted to ask if you were alright.”“Oh, ok.” She nodded in understanding. She then went to sit down and huffed her cheeks.“Rough day?”“You have no idea.”“Was it necessary to use the mirror as a punching bag though?”“Believe me, I was doing you a favour. And I'll answer your question with another question. When were you going to tell me about you and Matako? Or was I never supposed to find out?” She showed him the pictures.“I...”“Say it isn't true. Please.”He said nothing.“So, it is. You know, I was so sure that it wasn't and that it was just a misunderstanding. But I guess it was just wishful thinking. If you had come clean, I would've somewhat understood, but you didn't and instead kept it from me. And don't you dare try to chan

Week 5She had that dream for the second time, but this time, there was the sound of a baby crying. Something told her to follow it, but she couldn't tell where it was coming from.When she woke up, she found herself being cradled in a pair of arms and was faced with a worried-looking Takumi.“Are you ok? You kept calling me in your sleep. I tried to wake you up, but you wouldn't.”“Yeah, it was just a dream.”A few days later...She went to meet up with Hansuke.“You know; you've been looking less like yourself these days,” Hansuke said.“That's what I wanted to talk to you about but promise me that you'll keep it to yourself.”“Ok. You have my word.”She went ahead and told him about the dream and everything that happened afterwards.“So that's why you haven't been yourself lately. But do you honestly believe that that dream is true? I mean, you know him as well as I do, probably even better, and that doesn't sound like something he'd do.”“I know and I don't believe that it's true

Week 4“Do I look ok?” She asked.“What do you mean?”“I can't help but feel a little bloated today and I just want to know if I'm imagining things or not.”“Now that you mention it, you do look different. But I can’t put my finger on it. Oh, I know. You look more beautiful today.”“I guess it's just me then” She snorted.“Are you feeling better?”“Yeah. Can we go get cupcakes for breakfast?”“I don’t know if we should.”“C’mon, it’s just one or two.”“Then let's go fill you up with cupcakes.”Later...“I wonder how just one or two turned into five.”“And I wonder how you missed the sixth one.”“What am I going to do with you?” He chuckled. “At least don’t go on a cupcake diet.”“I’m tempted to do the opposite.”“I wouldn’t put it past you.”He sat her on his lap and kissed her.“Wait, I have a better idea.” She said.“Which is?”“Wait for me in our room and you’ll find out.” She whispered in his ear.A few minutes later, she joined him, and Takumi's jaw dropped when he saw what she w

Week 3“Am I still going to sleep on the couch?”“No, I think you've learned your lesson.”“Awesome. Are you free today?”“Only for the next hour and a half. Did you want to do something?”“There's someone I want you to meet. She's a friend that I met yesterday.”“Really?”“Yeah, I'm sure you'll like her too.”“If you say so.”“Why do I have a bad feeling about this?” Tis asked.“You're not the only one.”He took her to a nearby café and there was a girl already waiting for them. She was a 5'5 ravenette with emerald eyes and well... let's just say, she had way more going on with her chest than Twilight. In short, she was every guy's dream girl. To make matters worse, she was the same girl from Twilight's dream.“This is Matako, the friend I was telling you about. Matako, this is Twilight.”“Nice to meet you,” Matako said.“Same here.” She replied.An hour later...“Well, I have somewhere to get to in half an hour, so I'll get going. It was nice meeting you.” Twilight got up to leave.

Deceitful Relations

Deceitful Relations

What would you do if you had an emotionally abusive wife? It just so happens that Nicholas found himself in such a situation. He needed a way to save the orphanage, and she needed a husband to gain a promotion. He thought it was pure luck that they had crossed paths, but she proved him wrong. Instead of a husband, he is more of a prisoner. Shackled by his chivalrous nature, Nicholas can do nothing but endure the burden. But for how long? Can he really spend the rest of his like this? WARNING: This book may contain content that may be displeasing or sensitive to others, but I promise it's interesting😉

Chapter: Chapter 7
Upon Nic’s return, Lyra let him know her parents decided to come over for dinner. He dreaded it because it meant Alexis wouldn't be there to make it more tolerable.To put it simply, Nic wasn't particularly fond of his in-laws. No one would if they were looked down on more often than not and met with snooty remarks about their job. Nic could, in some way, understand where they were coming from. After all, Lyra was leagues above him, and it was clear she was the favoured child.What made it clearer was when they shut Alexis down whenever she tried to let them know what Lyra was up to. He always sensed that they did that because, as much as he wasn't liked, at least Lyra was married. And Alexis, on the other hand, seemed to be getting nowhere past the dating phase in her relationships. To them, it seemed as though Alexis was jealous and trying to ruin her sister's marriage.He felt a little bad about technically throwing Alexis under the bus whenever she was there, but he also found it

During Nic’s break, Alexis stopped by. “So, how did last night go?” She asked. “It was fine.” “That’s it?” “I wasn’t much of a participant, but more of a background character so yeah.” “That’s a shame. But maybe next time you’ll be a bit more proactive. Anyway, you went out for fun, so that’s something. As they say: progress is progress no matter how small.” “Lyra was there.” “What!?” “Yeah. She came with someone else.” “Sorry. I...” “It’s fine. It was just surprising to see her there.” “What did she say when she saw you two?” “Nothing. She went on as if nothing was wrong the whole night.” He purposely left out the reason behind Lyra’s behaviour. “Weird,” She commented. “Not as weird as Myrine finding out my banking information.” “She did what?” “We weren’t seeing eye to eye about me getting paid, so she took matters into her own hands.” “So, she got a hold of your banking details?” “Yeah.” “It’s probably for the best anyway because you’re insane for not wanting to

“Here we are,” Myrine said after the car stopped. “Yeah.” “Well, what are you waiting for? Get in there,” She gave him a little push out of the car. “Call me if you make it out alive. But don’t keep me waiting for too long,” She said before the driver drove off. When Nicholas entered the place, he had expected Lyra to be waiting for him and ready to unleash her wrath. But she wasn’t, and she was nowhere to be found either. He thought it was worse than her being around because he now had to wait for whatever she had in store for him, and his imagination wasn’t calming his nerves. Although he felt a little exhausted, he thought it’d be better to distract himself. So, he did a few chores and made dinner afterwards. He even took a shower. Even after that much time had passed, Lyra still hadn’t come home. Seconds turned into minutes and those minutes blended into hours. There was still no sign of Lyra, and Nicholas had no idea where she was. After a bit more time had passed, he packed

Nicholas stared at the card for a while before picking up his phone.“That was fast,” Myrine said. “I see that you live in Athens too. I’ll send you my location. Drop by when you have time so we can go over the details. I’m sure you’ve noticed I have a taste for extravagant things, so you’ll definitely know my place when you see it.”“Ok.”After work, he went straight to the location she had sent him. He found her already seated and waiting.“Sorry I took so long.”“No, it’s fine. Have a seat.”“Ok,” He sat down.“There’s not much to say. Besides your services, I need you to not mention our deal when we’re “together”. You’ll also have to memorise these notes,” She handed them to him. “It’s just the standard things like how we met, how long we’ve been dating and so on. Nothing too hectic. Our first appearance is at a dinner party tomorrow.”“Already?” He asked while paging through them.“Yes. You don’t have to worry about a thing. I just need your measurements before you leave and for

The next morning, Nic was trying to make sense of what had happened the previous night. He wasn’t even sure whether it was real or not because she was being her usual distant self, and she didn’t say anything about it either. He began wondering if he was the one going insane. She had kept the robe on the entire time, and he had never seen her naked, so he assumed that maybe it was a dream.He was distracted from the thought when he received an incoming call from Alexis. He didn’t know if he should answer it. On the other hand, he couldn’t avoid her forever, and there was no harm in answering.“Hi.” He answered.“I was worried that you wouldn’t pick up. Nic, listen, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to kiss you. I wasn’t in a good space, and you said all those nice things, and I just went for it. Can we just put this behind us? That’s if you want to, but I’ll understand if you don’t.”“Lex, it’s ok. I get it. I was just shocked, and that doesn’t mean I want to stop being your friend.”“That’s a

He had noticed that Alexis hadn’t been herself the last few days. Normally, she said whatever came to mind, but she’d been as quiet as a mouse and always had a far-off look in her eyes. He always answered with an “I’m fine” whenever he asked if she was ok. Later that night, he accidentally stumbled across her crying in her room.“Lex, what’s wrong?”“He dumped me,” She hiccupped.He quickly went to grab a box of tissues before sitting next to her and letting her cry on his shoulder. He thought it’d be best if he waited until she had calmed down enough to talk. He patiently waited for an hour, and even after she had stopped, he waited in case she still had more in her.“Why did he dump you?”“I told him that I’m letting you stay here for a while, but he didn’t like the idea. I then told him I’m just helping you out, but he accused me of always putting you first.”“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have stayed…”“You don’t have to apologise. It’s not your fault.”“You should tell that to yourself

Chapter: Hidden Facts in Book 2
1. Book 2 was never planned. It’s literally based on me putting two brain cells together to come up with ideas cuz the first book exhausted the rest of my brain cells, and I obviously didn’t expect to be writing a book 3. I was going to write one, but now it’ll be book 4 (we’ll get to that another time). 2. Natsumi’s name was originally Hakumei because it translates to twilight. Then I changed it to Koharu (which means little sun) because of her blonde hair, but I decided to make it Natsumi because...I just liked it better ok. 3. Back to the second point, Natsumi was originally blonde like Takumi, but I changed her colour to black to make the genetics thing a little more realistic. 4. In the beginning, Twilight and Trey were already supposed to be together (as in during those three years, she and Trey made up), but I don’t know why I didn’t add it in. 5. Twilight wasn’t supposed to have two wolves, but I thought it would be cool, so I added that. 6. Twilight and Trey were suppose

Chapter: Book 3
This is where the second book ends (yay). I’m ending it here because I felt that the storyline was starting to get too long for one book. This means that there’ll be a third book, but (drumroll) it’ll be part 2 of this one. But I’m calling it Mates and Temptations because The Pains of Guilt Part 2 didn’t sound catchy. And as a special little something, I added a bonus chapter after this one and a little blurb about the third book. I don’t have an exact date for when I’ll release book 3 because when it comes to my writing, I hate deadlines (they make me rush things and it affects the quality of my writing). The only reason I had one for this book is that I already had a lot of chapters ready for release long before I finished the first book. Anyway, book 2 will be available for purchase from retailers around mid-January or the first week of February (there's a ton of editing I need to do while also working on book 3).

Twilight POV Crap. Busted. Wait, no, I haven't done anything yet, so I'm not busted. In fact, why am I acting guilty of doing something I didn't do when I should be pissed right now? “How many?” I asked. “Can you ask a normal question, so I know what you're talking about?” I showed him the wallpaper. “Oh. That.” Is he serious? “That's all you have to say?” I asked. “I was supposed to say more?” “Ok. Well, this is unbelievable.” “It's not as if I can deny it, and besides, it’s just a picture.” “Just a picture? Actually, I'm more surprised by the fact that you're even calling it a picture.” “C'mon, it's not that bad.” Not that bad? He's practically asking me to throttle him right here and now. “Besides, it's my favourite one,” He continued. “Favourite one? You mean there's more?” I'm having a flashback of all the not-so-graceful moments I've had while he was around. And they're a lot. “Yeah.” “Tell me you're joking.” “I'm not.” “I'm never getting comfortable around y

I can't stay mad at that face.”“C'mon, Mama.” She dragged her out of bed. “See pwesent.”“Ok ok. I'm coming.”She was taken to her dad's room.“So, she actually woke you up. I tried to stop her, but she was already gone.”“Pop-pop, give Mama pwesent.”“Alright.”He gave her a gift bag. Inside was a simple, white summer dress with spaghetti straps and black butterflies at the hem.“You likes it, Mama?”“Of course, I do.”“I's best pwesentew.”She didn't want to burst Natsumi's bubble

If I have to break a bone or two, then so be it.”“Alright, but don't attack me. I was just saying.”Half an hour later...She was about to exit the shop when she got an incoming call from Mitsuri.
