THE WRONG TWIN FOR THE RIGHT ALPHA
I slid under his arms, seeking a safe place to catch my breath. I noticed a playful smile on his lips, but I chose to ignore it.
"Will the transformation hurt?" I lowered my gaze and whispered.
"First, your bones start to break, sending you to the ground," his eyes were closed. "Then, thick fur will grow all over your body. The limb stretching, I think that's the most thrilling part of the pain." The Alpha teased with a flicker of his tongue before continuing. "Next comes the shortening of the snout and the development of sharp claws and fangs."
"Will I become irrational?" I covered my mouth, trying to control the knot that had formed in my throat. "How do you control it?"
Laughing, he had already reached me and pulled me close, digging his claws not too deeply into my hip, causing a painful moan.
"It takes strength, training, and having the goddess on your side, human..." He withdrew his claws, leaving only a long scratch, and returned to my chin, scratching it and collecting a drop of blood. He licked it and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be here throughout your trial..."
"To make sure I die?" With tears in my eyes, I took a few more steps towards his dangerous game, realizing that his breathing was slightly heavier.
"You remind me a lot of her," he murmured, pressing his forehead against mine. "To ensure your transformation doesn't get out of control and to witness the deity's choice." With more pressure on my forehead, he forced me to take a few steps back in pain.

Chapter: EPILOGUE“With the moon's shackles as a witness and the pack's roar as a guide, I entwine the destinies of the wolf and the Succubus. Sealing shadows, I weave the magical veil that will protect the beast, where the alpha's mind and the essence of the Succubus will merge in an indissoluble pact. May the raised veil be an impenetrable shield, where not even the shadows of temptation dare disturb lupine harmony. So be it, under the moonlight, sealed in eternity.” Years had passed since the last battle against the dark witch, a lapse of time that felt like an eternity without catching a glimpse of my beloved nephew. I stared at the sky tinted with orange hues by the sunset, heralding the imminent night that unfolded to make way for lunar majesty. A sigh escaped my lips as I closed my eyes at the riverbank, chanting a prayer of protection to the ancestors, imploring them to safeguard my descendant wherever his journey might lead him. I wished for him to find peace and love, yearning for a day when

Chapter: CHAPTER 191 - I BELONG TO YOUI opened my eyes and surveyed the surroundings. We were in a stunning garden in front of a lake filled with fish, accompanied by ancient songs that filled the air. The pack leader stood, extending his hands to help me up.“Where are we?” I asked, raising my eyebrows, perplexed.“I believe we have entered the afterlife of our ancestors...” he replied, examining the surroundings where only the melodies echoed. “Someone brought our souls here!”“You're right, King Lycan, it was I who summoned you!” We turned in the direction of the voice echoing behind us; it was Phillipa, smiling gently. “Daughter.”She approached to hug me, but I took a step back, standing behind the alpha, who wrinkled his nose and growled at my mother.“I'm sorry... I shouldn't...” Phillipa whispered.“Why did you bring us here?” Harvey inquired firmly, his voice sharp.“Calm down, Lycan. I can assure you that my intentions are genuine,” Phillipa sighed, turning her gaze towards me. “Sophie, please, can you at least

Shadowy hands emerged from the rift, grabbing the beast's paws and pulling with force; it roared, attempting to resist. Harvey grabbed my arms, still with closed eyes:“My essence... the beast!” He fainted again, his almost transparent life thread visible as a line, connecting to the beast.“I understand, Alpha, I understand...” I kissed his forehead, releasing him and allowing the hole to pull me, feeling the force of the rift.The beast held me tightly, grabbing my wrists. “Are you mad, Hybrid?” The beast roared. “You'll be consumed by darkness as soon as you pass through the rift.”I smiled at the creature, which widened its eyes in shock.“I will save both of you, close the rift, and bring Nyxara to be by your side... Now I understand.” I sighed, smiling. “You were never the curse; you were the alpha's essence; you came as a guardian, but the shadows corrupted you before.”

Chapter: CHAPTER 189 - I WILL NOT LET YOU GOPOV: SOPHIEI struggled to keep my eyes open as I watched the sinister creature rise in the air, flying and gliding with the Alpha in its arms. Even in his feral form, my mate seemed tiny in the face of the imposing winged creature that held him aloft. My eyes felt heavy, and I closed them for a moment. Suddenly, a deafening roar made the ground tremble. As I opened my eyes again, I witnessed King Lycan staggering and speaking with difficulty, addressing the witch.“You need to get up, Hybrid...” a voice resonated through the wind. “He won't endure for much longer!”“Harvey...” I whispered, trying to lift my body. I felt magic swirling from head to toe, caressing me gracefully and dispelling some of the drowsiness that afflicted me.The Alpha's roar was thunderous, followed by a silence that seemed to freeze everything around. The smell of rust became almost palpable in the air. I turned in his direction, surprised to see him smiling as charmingly as the first time he teased me. His l

We let out a deafening roar.“Beast, don't hurt her!” I warned the creature, emphasizing the importance of not touching my Luna.“I have no interest in killing her, but the witch... Oh, we'll have fun with her!” roared the beast in my mind, eagerly.In our werewolf form, we were possessed by a fierce demon, thirsty for blood and war. The dark witch shuddered subtly, summoning various creatures of darkness to attack us, in a desperate attempt to stop our advance towards her!“Hold us back! I need time with the hybrid!” shouted the dark witch.“Don't even think about it!” I exclaimed, leaping over the creatures and stopping in front of the she-wolf, who struggled not to completely faint.“Alpha...” Sophie murmured with difficulty.“Don't worry, we'll protect her!” Despite the mixture of voices, she smiled upon realizing that the Beast and I were working together.“If you want my mate, you'll have to face us!”“Ah, s

Chapter: CHAPTER 187 - GATES OF THE UNDERWORLD“Stay alert; we're not alone,” the alpha growled, sniffing the surroundings. I did the same, looking up at the sky and spotting the silhouette of the dark witch, whose laughter echoed shortly after.“Well, well, visitors in our illustrious home…” the dark witch spoke playfully, invading the space with her darkness. Her dull eyes were even more drained, and the skin more deteriorated, with dark veins bulging from her neck.“You look terrible, witch!” taunted the Lycan king.“Cursed wolf, I've never been better... And your son, how is he? Oh, yes, he has become a puppet of our king!” She laughed, provoking a loud growl from me, displaying my fangs. “Oh, Luna, calm down; soon you will join us!”“What do you mean by that?” the Alpha demanded.“As you can see, my shell can no longer contain my powers; I need a new one.” The dark witch amused herself. “And now that the Shadow King has obtained a toy more powerful than you, hybrid, I can use her as I please!”“Over my dead body.” I roared th

Chapter: 40 – THE MEDIA ATTACKPOV: LAURENAfter what happened with Henry, I decided to spend the day away from the mansion until Theodor got back from school. I took advantage of the free morning to go to the doctor with my friend Kate and have my first ultrasound.Lying on the examination table, ready for the procedure, Kate held my hand, offering support while the doctor asked me to relax.“Ms. Becker, take a look—here's your baby,” the doctor said, pointing to a tiny dot on the screen. “You're eight weeks along. And here...”He pressed the device against my belly, and the sound of a fast, strong heartbeat filled the room. My eyes welled up with tears, and I looked at Kate, who was also crying with emotion.“Look at that, Lauren—our little miracle,” she said, her voice thick with emotion.The doctor glanced at us, curious.“So, was this baby planned? Is the donor involved?” he asked innocently.Kate and I burst into laughter.“Oh no, doctor. She's my friend—more like a sister, actually,” I explained, still laugh

Chapter: 39 – SCANDAL IN THE MEDIAPOV: HENRYIt had been a long night, filled with thoughts and longing for a visit that never happened. Lauren still affected me deeply, just as she had since college. I knew I shouldn’t care that she didn’t remember me or who we once were—or almost were. But it was hard to ignore.Even before five in the morning, my mind was already flooded with images of her—her perfect body, her curves, the flush on her cheeks under the soft night light, the roundness of her breasts, her nipples hardened by the cold. It was impossible not to feel the desire rising again.“Damn, I’m going to need another cold shower,” I muttered, frustrated, running a hand through my hair. I bit the inside of my cheek, trying to keep myself in check. “I should’ve kissed her. I should’ve brought her to my room.”I spoke to no one as I adjusted my dress shirt. Shaking my head with a half smile, I remembered my phone ringing the night before. The doorman had called to say that a friend of my nanny was insisting on comin

Chapter: 38 - I CAN'T GET INVOLVEDPOV: LAURENMy heart raced, fast and erratic, as if it were trying to escape my chest. I turned slowly, trying to compose myself, but it was impossible to ignore his presence. Henry stood there, as imposing as ever, with a glass of drink in his hand. His dark, piercing eyes locked onto mine with an intensity that seemed to cut through all my defenses. It was as if he could read every thought and every desire I tried to hide.Before I could say or do anything, the dress I had been holding so carefully slid down my body, falling softly to the floor. The cold air of the mansion touched my skin, but it wasn’t that that made me tremble. It was his gaze. His eyes traced every inch of the fabric as it fell, as if memorizing every curve, every detail of my body. He didn’t rush. Every movement of his eyes was slow, deliberate, as if savoring the moment.I felt exposed, vulnerable, but also… desired. The way he looked at me was unlike anything I had ever experienced—it was deeper, more intense.

Chapter: 37 – ESCAPE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHTPOV: LAURENI closed the door and let out a deep sigh, feeling my heart beat faster than usual. My hands were sweaty and trembling slightly as I tried to calm myself down. On the other side of the door, I heard slow, deliberate footsteps, stopping right in front of my door. My body reacted before I could even think. I took a step back, shaking my head in denial.“Please, don’t come in,” I murmured to myself, my voice barely a whisper. I took a few more hesitant steps back, watching the shadow under the door slowly move away. My chest tightened, and a wave of confusion washed over me. “What am I doing?”I turned and walked to the mirror, desperately trying to unzip the dress that stubbornly refused to budge. I bit my lips, frustrated with the situation.“It would be easier if we just picked up where we left off,” I muttered under my breath, almost joking with myself. “At least the dress would come off more easily.”The words slipped out before I could stop them, and suddenly, an unwant

Casting an intrigued glance at Margareth, I turned my attention back to Lauren, who was cradling Theo with an almost natural care.Before she could continue, I quickly intervened, taking Theo from her arms.“Let me handle this. He’s getting heavy,” I said, holding Theo securely as he rested his head on my shoulder, visibly exhausted. I glanced back at Lauren, who hesitated, her timid eyes avoiding mine, her expression carrying a hint of sadness. Perhaps it was because of my earlier harsh tone.I stepped closer and whispered so only she could hear:“You really are a fairy, aren’t you? You managed to make him stop crying.”Lauren’s eyes widened, her lips forming a small “O.” She slowly shook her head, still surprised, while gently stroking Theo’s back as he began to yawn.“Mr. C

It was only when we stopped at the playground that I realized I had taken Lauren’s hand, pulling her along to match my pace. There was Theodor, sitting on the ground next to the slide, holding his leg and crying loudly.“Buddy, what happened?” I asked, kneeling beside him quickly. I noticed the stares from people around us and realized only then that my hand was still holding Lauren’s. She immediately let go, taking a step back and avoiding eye contact.“Uncle Henry, it hurts!” Theodor whimpered, crying even louder. My attention returned to him, and I saw blood running from his knee.“I told you this would happen, boy!” Mia stepped forward, her tone irritatingly smug. “I tried to stop him, but he pushed me and fell!”“That’s not true!

I stopped near the edge of the city, stepping out of the car and sniffing the air. Something was off.Just as I was about to shift into my wolf form, a burning pain erupted in my stomach, radiating through my joints and insides. I turned to the side, vomiting a thick, black, slimy liquid that reeked of decay. I coughed uncontrollably, wiping my mouth angrily.“Black magic...” I muttered, scanning the area as sinister whispers echoed through the forest, which began to fill with an eerie fog. “Great, more enemies!”Growling, I shifted into my Lycan form and entered the dense forest. Shadows darted from tree to tree, whispering ancient words.“I’m not your enemy! I’m looking for someone—the wit

The little one is taking a nap,” Dante chuckled softly, amused. “By the way, my dear, did you have any visions?”“Visions?” I arched an eyebrow. Did he not remember the dream connection? “No, sorry... I just had dreams!”“Really? What did you dream about?” I felt him move closer, the bed sinking beside me, making my wolf skittish. “Callie, I’m starting to lose patience with your wolf!”“We don’t remember you, Dante... Give us more time,” I stammered, uneasy, as his claws brushed against my skin roughly, leaving shallow cuts. “Please...”“You're lucky there are plenty of toys to keep me entertained right now

Will you let me see your good side?” Raising her glistening eyes, Esmeralda offered a subtle smile. “Please...”“Esmeralda, I don’t have a good side or any interest in you right now!” I growled, irritated, crouching in front of her and picking up the nightgown, shoving it back at her. “Don’t ever come to my chambers uninvited again.”“Was Callie invited?” Still naked, she stepped closer, letting her fingertips glide along my arms, caressing softly. “Let me show you what it’s like to be with a real she-wolf, Alpha.”I clenched my fist in fury.

Chapter: CAPÍTULO 83 - I WILL HAVE HER BACKPOV: AARONAfter my bath, I lay patiently on the bed, waiting to be drawn into her dreams, thinking about our connection. I immersed myself in memories of our intimate moments, especially the times we ventured to the top of the mountain. I remembered how awestruck she looked when she “saw” the sunset through my eyes. I recalled how beautiful her face was, flushed from the icy wind, and how shy she felt being completely naked on top of me, fully surrendering to our desires.I woke up in front of the gates, walking peacefully with my hands in my pockets. I stopped in front, knocked twice, and waited for her furious growls.“Why can’t you just leave me alone, at least here?” the she-wolf roared, making me laugh.“I’ll come back every night, Callie. I’m never leaving,” I shouted from the other side of the door. “I won’t hurt you. Let me in.”“Why should I?” I heard her sigh. “I’m tired of your persistence.”“Then open the door,” I growled, placing my hand on the gate and resting my forehe

Somehow, my wolf knew they were together and that I needed to find them as soon as possible. Especially at night, my mind was drawn to the temple. Every time I approached the door, I was repelled by magic! How was the blind she-wolf doing this?My nerves were on edge. The day had come to attack the Northern Dawn, to overthrow Alpha Icaro, who exploited his people, using them as sacrifices to the dark god, Nocturnus. I needed to release all the tension building up in my body. As much as I denied it, being away from the she-wolf was affecting my wolf more than I cared to admit.“You all know what to do. Kill the pagan followers, capture the people so we can assess their usefulness and loyalty,” I ordered, catching Kemilly's scent at the door, waiting. “Now, everyone out! Prepare to move.”As they left, I saw her enter with her head down. Her scent stil

There’s a bucket with what seems to be water,” she said softly.“No... Dante will bring me water soon,” I replied, still clearing my throat, trying to suppress the coughing fit.“I’m sorry, Wolf, but if you want to survive, you need to understand something—here, it’s every person for themselves. Dante doesn’t help anyone!” I heard her shifting, perhaps attempting to move. “My name is Yulli. What’s yours?”“Callie,” I answered with difficulty, taking one cautious step and then another, as she had instructed. Slowly, I kneeled. I sniffed the water—it stank, stagnant for who knows how long. I wrinkled my nose in disgust, lowering my hands carefully around the bucket and scooping up a bit of th

THE CEO AND THE APPRENTICE
I lifted my gaze to meet his unwavering one; his eyes were enigmatic, just like his dominant posture. He had an enviable and captivating physique, with well-defined muscles that accentuated the perfect cut of his suit. His greenish eyes, tan skin, and slightly curly hair, styled professionally, completed his look. He was truly a stunning man.
“Finished admiring me, miss?” With a teasing tone, a charming smile appeared on his lips. The CEO was undoubtedly tempting.
“Sir...” I cleared my throat, trying to regain my composure and searching for words to escape that uncomfortable situation. “The content is not appropriate to be read aloud; please understand!”
“That, I will decide!” He leaned back in his executive chair, watching me calmly as he savored a sip of his favorite whiskey. “I'm waiting.”
“I apologize, sir, but I can't do it. You can fire me!” I turned away, ready to leave the office hastily, when his strong hands gripped my wrist, about to pull the door handle.
He carefully watched my reaction and then smiled.
“Apprentice…” The CEO approached me seductively, causing me to step back a few paces until I was cornered against the wall. He surrounded me with his arms and brought his lips close to my ear, whispering, “There is so much potential in you; I will mold you!”
Biting lightly on the tip of my ear, I felt a shiver run through my body. With the tips of his fingers, he traced the outline of my face with his nails before pressing his lips with his thumb, gently parting them. Moving even closer, he pressed his body against mine, making my heart race and my breathing erratic.

Since Patrick's departure, she had buried herself in work, trying to avoid the pain of loss. The impact had been devastating. It wasn’t fair how the CEO told her about his illness, and even less how he left, leaving a void that was hard to fill.Everything changed the day my phone rang. Patrick Morgan had defied death. Against all odds, he had achieved remission, and his prognosis was surprisingly positive. He was getting better, almost miraculously. Excited, I rushed to get him and bring him back into our lives. I had sworn I lost my best friend and brother, and I felt aimless if it wasn’t for the constant presence of his apprentice, who kept me sane and focused.When I saw Patrick coming down from the jet, emotion overwhelmed me. I ran to him and hugged him tightly. “Patrick, you idiot!”

I took over the publishing house with praise, and we prospered increasingly. The merger with Forbs was a success, and soon Celdric became one of the active CEOs in decision-making.Greg was my right-hand man, responsible for legal matters, security, and investigations. I couldn't believe it. Whenever I came home, I had the feeling that he would be there, waiting for me, with a glass of wine, half-naked, and his mischievous smile on his lips.“You are missed, Patrick.” I whispered, closing my eyes as the breeze caressed my face. I hadn't been able to read the book until that moment. It seemed that reading your last words would be a farewell I was never prepared to say.I hesitated for a while longer, then opened the book. In the dedication, my eyes filled with tears:“For Mrs. Eva, for having raised and loved the sweetes

Reluctantly, I opened it and found a hardcover book with our photo from our honeymoon, smiling happily in Cuba. In the image, Patrick was whispering something silly in my ear while hugging me from behind, making me blush and provoking a genuine smile. At the bottom of the envelope, there was a letter addressed to me, written in his elegant handwriting:“My sweet Elisabeth, if you received this letter, I'm afraid my time has come. You will probably hate me for how I chose to handle this, but I need you to know that I never wanted to hurt or upset you. In a cowardly and selfish way, I decided not to tell you my biggest secret. You had already suffered so many losses and so much pain that it didn't seem fair to put you through another turbulent time.”“What is Patrick talking about?” I bit my lip, growing nervous with every word, and continued reading.“I hid the truth about my joining the army.

Together, we walked to the designated chapel. It was a simple ceremony, just Patrick’s platoon and us.I entered the church, hearing the soft sound of the violin in the background. At the altar, Patrick Morgan stood out in the wedding setting with his imposing presence. He was tall and dark-haired, and he exuded charm and elegance in his tailored suit. The dark fabric enhanced his skin tone, and the white shirt contrasted with his complexion, creating a sophisticated and attractive look. His brown hair was impeccably styled, and his deep blue eyes seemed to pierce my soul, locking onto mine. His sculpted body showcased his good physical shape, confirming his sensual aura. He smiled seductively when he saw me, subtly biting his lips with mischief. I blushed instantly, reprimanding him with a frown, which

The relief of knowing Greg was alive, fighting to recover, barely dissipated the anguish consuming me. As I put on the black mourning clothes, my reflection in the mirror revealed a profound sadness, where the eyes of that little girl who had lost her parents so long ago resurfaced in my gaze. My only family, my entire world, and my best friend, mother, and confidante had left without me being there to comfort her in her most frightening moment. The guilt for not being by her side tore at my heart. The most important person in my life was taken from me, leaving an unbearable void, an overwhelming loneliness. Then I felt his warm hands on my hips and his gentle kiss on the top of my head, a gesture of comfort amidst the abyss of loss.“Are you okay?” Patrick looked at my reflection in the mirror with understanding. “I'm so sorry for your loss, Lis.”“So am I...” I bit my trembling lip

Quickly, I pulled her behind me, and we all crouched as John, dragging himself, sat up injured with a gun in his hand, shooting five times at Pavel. He hit Pavel's leg, shoulder, arm, and neck.I pushed the wristbands off my hands, threw a knife to James to free himself and Robert, and went towards Pavel, who tried to raise the gun at me. I kicked his hands, pulled his body, and began landing several punches on his face.“You bastard, this is for torturing her for so long.” I punched harder, hearing the bones in his face crack and blood mixing on his face.“Is that all you got?” Andreev smiled with blood-stained teeth, diabolically. “You're too weak to protect her.”“This is just the beginning!” I smiled darkly when Lis came up behind me
