My Billionaire Rebound
“Me?” I asked, a smile playing on my lips. “You already have me.”
His response was immediate, like he had been waiting forever to say the words.
“Not the way I want. Not the way that matters.”
********
I sat in a bar, determined to drown out every single one of my sorrows after my marriage came to a painful crash, but he strolled in, all seductive smiles and an accent that rippled through me.
Theon Murphy, a man made of dark chocolate, velvet kisses, and sin.
That one night wasn’t supposed to happen, and I wasn’t supposed to walk into my first day of work to find my one-night lover seeking a care nurse for his grandfather. Me.
Now we’re forced into a fake relationship that feels all too real, and every time he kisses me, the world stops and stills like a chaotic painting.
When he makes a declaration, expressing his need to love me for real; would I be able to take the tattered fragments of my heart and piece them into something that deserves his love, or would the external forces creeping in on us arrive before I can make up my mind?
My Billionaire Rebound is a book wrapped in layers of seduction, indecision and the crippling need to belong to someone trustworthy. Would Alina finally find her happily ever after? Or does fate have one more cruel twist up its sleeve?

Chapter: Rescue Part 2THEONThere was a tension in the air, the kind that sat pretty heavy and made everyone present shift with discomfort. Tatiana flashed me an apologetic look, her eyes saying she had wanted to, but hadn't had the power enough to make my mother stop.I gave her a small nod, letting her know that it was in no way her fault. My mother had a knack for stepping over people and doing on whatever pleased her. Some of us were used to it.My chest heaved in a weary sigh and I made to step out and close the door, to spare my girl from the drama that was bound to ensue, but she was already headed in my direction, and by the look on her face, she was definitely not sitting this one out.I sighed again, this one heavier than the first."What are you doing here?" I asked the woman who had, unfortunately, brought me into this world.Her face held all the entitlement of a woman used to getting what she want, and it irked me to no end that she viewed my life as just one more point to exert authority an

Chapter: THE RESCUE THEON Bryon was pulling strings that were far tighter than I thought was within his range. Everything was spinning, and my heart thudded in my chest like a drum.There was so much I wanted to do, like smash my phone into the wall, but none of that was going to help me in any way. I pit my temper on a leash - with great difficulty, might I add - and clicked to receive the incoming call."I see you've received my present. What do you think about it?" He sounded so smug it made me grate my teeth in annoyance.No response came from me. Instead, I held the phone to my ear and listened as he snickered into the receiver."Oh, come on, brother. Don't be like that. We both know silence isn't going to help us any."Again, no response came from me. This time, his voice was cold, filled with a venom that was obviously deadly."Who do you want to die first?""Is that a threat?" I asked, my voice so calm you wouldn't believe I was on the edge of an emotional storm."You're not playing by the rules

Chapter: INSIDE ENEMYALINATerror coursed through me at the sound of the voice that came from the other room. Was that who I thought it was? But how? How had they…?Hold up. Was this part of their plan? Could she be a part of this disgusting scheme to get…?The thought was brought to an abrupt halt as Mandy strolled in, a gun swinging from her index finger and a sinister smile playing on her lips.“Guess who brought you company?” she giggled.I rolled my eyes, pushing the lump in my throat that sprang there as fear for Theon grew inside my chest. “For someone who’s so obsessed with having a child for the man she loves, you’re being awfully careless in your state.”“What are you? My doctor?”The tone was meant to carry sarcasm, but it missed its mark, given that I actually was a trained nurse.“Uhm… yeah. I am a trained nurse, Mandy.”Her face transformed into one of anger and then she held the gun the right way, pointing it in my direction as she glared at me.“It might be fun to kill a killjoy. Want me t

Chapter: TO HELL WITH ITTHEONThe phone rang on and on before it finally clicked with the person on the other end taking the call.“Well, if it isn’t my beloved brother,” he drawled into the receiver, voice sounding as amused as it always did. “To what do I owe the honor?”I refrained from feeding into the illusion of power he was waving around, because one misstep and he would be informed that I was onto him.“How come you’ve got contact in L.A?” I asked. “The last I checked, this was my city.”“Aw…” he mocked. “You’ve probably been checking the wrong places.”“What do you want?” I heaved a huge sigh to give him the impression that I was buying into his bullshit.There was silence on the other end for a while, and when he finally spoke up, the acid in is voice was once again present; all traces of humor vanquished into nothingness.“I used to think getting Murphy Holdings was going to be enough for me, but now that I think about it, you owe me a lot more than just one company.” Another pause, then… “Wouldn’

Chapter: DARK TURNSTHEONMy whole world was hazy. I was moving on nothing more than agitation and a fear that was so profound it would completely numb me if I let it. The beeping of machines that connected to Ava made my head pound, a sick feeling twisting my stomach every time I glanced at her – her frail frame, her pale skin. She looked on the brink of something dark.I shook my head to clear the thoughts that were traveling through my mind at the speed of light. One thing was certain, the woman I loved was in the hands of the same psycho who had tried to kill us both the last time we had seen him.Questions swam their way through my kind. How had he gotten to L.A so quickly and… how did he even know where to find them? Didn’t Aaron say he was just granted bail pending trial? How then had he escaped house arrest to…?All thought ground to a quick halt. There was no possible way Bryon could be in L.A, that meant one of two things.He was either bluffing – which really wasn’t his style – or he was pulli

CURSE OF THE HYBRID ALPHA
"Do you take me, Zedane Rhage, as your mate?"
"I do. One flesh, one blood, one pack, one magic and one lifetime."
****
When Kiena Vocci dumps her forced mate on the altar, she loses everything she once knew... family, pack, life.
Now she bumps into a hot stranger, one whose ruthlessness precedes every other part of his being, yet invokes the basest reactions from her.
It was supposed to be a quick escape from the chokehold of her father's pack, but it instead became a rapid growth of unwarranted feelings.
What happens when she realises that there are secrets being kept from her, and that Zedane cannot reciprocate the feelings she has for him despite their mating?
Would she connect with her wolf, or would she end up being just another outcast?

Chapter: SHE'S HERE!!KIENAWhat in the name of the moon goddess is that? I have seen wolves before, Alpha wolves as well, and while they might all have deathly fangs that can make you piss your pants in fright, this is different.There's something less animally about the fangs in the Zedane's mouth. They look more refined. More like they are meant for poking holes than shredding skin.The fear that slams into me this time is pure and undiluted, pushing my arousal down a drain I didn't even know existed until this moment.He notices the terror on my face, and I swear his smile broadens. “Don't fight me, little poison. It turns me on. And you don't want to see what happens when I am turned on by fear.”There's a hint of psychopathy in the way he utters those words. His red gaze travels over the skin on my neck.“Do you want me to bite? I know you taste good. I tasted you already.” He swipes his tongue over his bottom lip and releases a sound that could be considered a moan if it didn't vibrate through the w

Chapter: WHAT IN THE WORLD?KIENANothing says terror like the look on Zedanes's face as I stand in the doorway of his room. For once, I regret not listening to someone's advice.His eyes are a dark shade of red, veins pulsing from the hands he has clenched so tightly I fear they might snap. He inches one slow inch after another in my direction, and I retreat.“What are you doing, Zedane? Knock it out.” I admonish. “You're hurting the pack, and that's not how an Alpha should treat the wolves under his command.”A low growl emanates from his chest, vibrating through the air and causing fear to grip me like a vise around the throat.“My venom.” His lips part in a smile that sends chills racing along my spine.“Excuse me? What venom? Were you poisoned?”He shakes his head, as though he's trying to clear it, and he takes a step backward; face devoid of the lunacy I met when I first walked in.Tentatively, I walk in his direction, offering him support because despite my feelings towards the man, I know for a fact tha

Chapter: DEFINITELY PAINZEDANEEverything is wrong. Taste, smell, sight; all of it. A haze of madness cloaks my mind, pushing every last ounce of sanity out of my grasp. I shake my head in an attempt to clear the fog that’s sitting over my thoughts and everything else.The plate in front of me is swiped off the table with a violent growl that shakes the roof of the manor, sending terror through every nook and cranny. I hate losing control. It takes me back to a time where all I knew was vulnerability.My breaths come out in short pants, anger and helplessness struggling for dominance inside me. I can’t succumb to the feeling that is struggling to drag me under and spit me out only after it has had its way with me.“Are you okay, Alpha?” A voice I can vaguely register asks from somewhere around me, but I can’t force a response out for their sake – or mine.The winds howl in protest as I battle against the pull of insanity. The draw of lust on me is becoming more powerful with each breath I take and I let out

Chapter: ANGER OR PAIN?KIENAIt's been a whole month, one entire month since I got back to the pack, and that douchebag Alpha wolf, who should also be my mate, has been treating me to the coldest set of shoulders I've ever seen.He barely speaks to me, matter of fact, we barely even cross parts. But like the idiot that I am, I run outside hoping to catch a glimpse of him after I heard his enraged howl, but once again I'm met with cold eyes, curt words and an all round disinterest in anything that concerns me.I step out of the shower feeling even worse than I had when I stepped in. I don't even understand why my wolf is intent of not speaking to me, yet overpowering me with her excessive emotions. Like the very unnecessary guilt I'm feeling right now, even though he has made it clear that he was only concerned for his pack and not me.My head snaps in the direction of the door as a knock rings out. "Who's there?""Lina." The tiny voice on the other side of the door calls back.I sigh as I walk over and pull

Chapter: ROGUE ATTACKZEDANEIt's been a whole month since I found Kiena lying half-dead beneath the bushes that were cut into a makeshift tent for her. Whoever it was that took her wanted me to find her, and probably dead too.I can still taste the dangerous flavor of fear that had cloaked me after I found her in that position. It was something I had succeeded in preventing for well over a decade, almost two, but in a single moment, a woman was able to bring it right back."Are you even here?" Lunil asks along the bond we share with the pack.My eyes snap in the direction that his mental voice came from and our eyes lock on each other. I nod once to let him know that all is well and then pick up the pace, but he isn't far behind."You don't look like all is well with you. You've let the same rabbit run past you twice without so much as blinking in its direction, and that's very unlike you. You're an exceptionally skilled hunter, something has to be wrong if you're missing game like that."I cut him a glar

Chapter: BACK HOMEKIENAMy eyes feel heavy but I force them open, feeling the pressure in my head intensify as my body begins to stir awake. The endless dabble between consciousness and unconsciousness has left me feeling drained and weary.My mind vaguely registers the fact that Zedane is still sitting beside my bed. I wonder how long he has been in that position. He thrusts a glass of water in my direction. "Here. Have a drink."I close my eyes shut again. I can't stand the cold intensity of his gaze right now. I'm already in enough pain as it is, and the fact that I cannot even remember anything that happened after I was plucked up in front of the gates makes it all that worse."This isn't the time to play childish games, Kiena. Have something to drink, we need to have a talk." Just like his eyes, his voice is also steel hard and devoid of emotions, except maybe anger.I try to get into a sitting position after I manage to pry my eyes open, but a groan works its way through me an I slink back down,
