Ivy's POV

John Rodney.

I hadn't seen him in years, but I could never forget that face. The greasy, stringy hair, the hollowed-out cheeks, the nervous twitch of his lips—he was another ghost from my nightmares, standing right in front of me in handcuffs.

I couldn't breathe.

The room shrank around me, the past crashing over me like a wave, dragging me back to a time I had fought so hard to forget.

The café.

The smell of roasted coffee beans and caramelized sugar had once been comforting—a small piece of normalcy I had clung to.

I once loved working at that café, pouring lattes and wiping down counters, believing that with every shift, I was proving something.

Proving to my father and uncle that adopting me wasn’t a mistake. Proving that I wasn’t just some broken girl, a discarded thing left to rot in the shadows of her past.

They had given me another chance at life, a home, a family. And I was desperate to show them I deserved it. That I wasn’t useless, like everyone in my

    Ivy's POV The slap rang out like a gunshot the moment he raised his hand towards me. John’s head snapped to the side, his greasy hair whipping across his face. The room stayed deathly silent. For a moment, he didn’t move, didn’t even breathe. His lip quivered, his breath coming in shallow gasps as he processed what had just happened. I tilted my head, my smile sharpening. “What’s wrong, Johnny?” I cooed. “Isn’t this what you wanted?” His jaw clenched, and he slowly turned back to me, a flicker of rage behind his bloodshot eyes. “I—” Slap! This time, I felt the sting ripple up my arm, but I didn’t care. John reeled back again, stumbling against the officers holding him. His confidence cracked. I saw the hesitation bloom, the bravado slipping. My voice dropped, low and venomous. “You always wanted me to play along, right? Well, I’m playing now.” His lips trembled. I stepped closer, towering over him, watching as the little coward inside him began to surf

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   A Father's Wrath

    Richard’s POV The moment Ivy confirmed the name, I hung up. My hand trembled around the phone, my knuckles white as I gripped it too tight. A name I had spent years burying—erasing from my thoughts, from my life—had just been spoken by my daughter. Dante. The bastard was back. How did he get out? I stood frozen, barely breathing, as the past clawed its way up from the grave I’d buried it in. The blood. The screams. The hollow, soulless eyes of my baby girl when I found her—violated, broken, gone. A storm raged inside me, a fury so potent I could taste it on my tongue. “Richard,” Marcus’s voice cut through the silence, calm but firm. He knew. He always knew when my mind was slipping into the abyss. No. No, no, no. It couldn’t be. I heard Marcus let out another long, ragged breath beside me. He dragged a hand down his face, cursing under his breath. "Dante?" he muttered, voice laced with disgust. I shot up from my chair so fast it clattered to the floor. The wal

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   A Debt to be Paid

    Ivy’s POVSomething was wrong. I could feel it. My father hadn’t called me back since our last conversation, and that wasn’t like him. He always followed up, always checked in. Especially when something felt… off. I tried not to dwell on it as I stood in front of my vanity, blending foundation into my skin. I needed to focus. We had an important meeting today about the lawsuit, and I couldn't afford distractions. Still, that nagging feeling sat in the pit of my stomach. “Ivy,” Leo’s deep voice rumbled behind me before I felt the familiar warmth of his arms wrapping around my waist. He pulled me against his chest, his head dropping to rest on my shoulder. “Do you really have to go?” I let out a small laugh, tilting my head slightly to glance at him. His hold was firm, almost needy, and his body heat seeped through my silk blouse. “You’re being a baby,” I teased, reaching up to run my fingers through his hair. Leo let out a dramatic sigh, pressing a slow kiss to my neck.

    Lila's laughter echoed through the office, sharp and unhinged, as if she found the entire situation amusing. But her eyes—her dark, calculating eyes—were anything but playful. Isabella didn't move from her spot, her body language stiff and ready. "State your price," Ivy bit out, already exhausted. "How much do you want?" Lila’s brows lifted, amusement flickering across her face. “Oh? So quick to put a price on things, sister dearest.” Ivy glanced at Isabella, who was still positioned protectively next to her, then leaned in slightly towards Lila. “Drop your details. I’ll have the account wire it to you.” At that, Lila threw her head back and laughed—loud, maniacal, unapologetic. Isabella observed the exchange with keen interest, her gaze flickering between the two identical faces. It was as if, for the first time, she truly registered just how much they mirrored each other. The same sharp features, different eye colors, and where Ivy’s expression was cold and controlled, L

    A sharp knock on the door. Ivy exhaled through gritted teeth. “What now?” The door creaked open anyway. My father's assistant, Daniel, strode in, his usual smirk playing at his lips. “Wow,” he drawled, shutting the door behind him. “I could hear that scream from the elevator. Should I be concerned?” Ivy ignored him, walking to the mini-fridge to pour herself a glass of water. Daniel leaned against the doorframe, watching her with amusement. “So, what’s it this time? The lawsuit? The company? Or, let me guess…” His grin widened. “Love drama?” Ivy took a slow sip before turning to face him, her expression blank. “What do you want?”As long as she can remember, there has always been something about Daniel—something that had never sat right with her. His movements were too fluid, his presence too sharp. Sometimes, just for a fleeting second, she senses something… inhuman. But with her wolf senses missing, she could never be sure. Daniel chuckled, adjusting the cuff of his s

    Leo's POV "What time did she escape?" I growled, my voice rough with frustration as we stormed out of the courtyard, the heat pressing down on us like a heavy blanket. Zane kept pace beside me, his urgency matching my own. "I alerted you the moment I found out," he said, his breath slightly uneven. "So, let's say as early as ten." A growl rumbled low in my chest. That meant she had a head start—hours to disappear into the wilderness, to cover her tracks. My hands curled into fists. We needed to move faster.My warriors stood in a loose formation at the forest’s edge, their eyes gleaming under the clear sky. The tension in the air was electric, humming with the promise of blood and vengeance. I took a slow, deliberate breath, rolling my shoulders as I let the shift take over. My skin burned as bones cracked, realigning, reshaping—fur sprouting in a wave of scorching heat. My claws extended, muscles thickened, and within moments, I was no longer a man but a beast—powerful, relent

    Leo’s POVI forced a steady breath, my heart still hammering from the rush of the hunt. But the moment I stepped inside, that adrenaline shifted into something else—something heavier. Ivy’s gaze followed me as I walked in, her brows knitting with concern. "Leo?" I couldn't let her see the war raging inside me. Not now. I needed to leave. Fast. I forced a small smirk, running a hand through my hair. "Just some business. I’ll be back soon." She sat up, her expression tightening. "Business? You just got back." I leaned down, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "I won’t be long." Ivy studied my face, as if searching for a crack in my excuse. "You’re lying." My jaw clenched, but I kept my voice even. "Ivy, don’t start. I have to go." She grabbed my wrist before I could move away. "Wait. Did my father say anything to you? I just spoke to him today, and it was… strange." Her words made my stomach tighten. I knew things she didn’t—things she didn’t need to know. I cupped her

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   Brewing Regret

    Ivy’s POVI couldn't shake off the stories Isabella had told me about her and Leo. The way she spoke about their shared past, the little details she knew—his favorite meals, the way he liked his coffee, the things that made him tick—it all gnawed at me. I knew Leo loved me, but the jealousy inside me was relentless. It curled in my stomach like a slow-burning fire, impossible to ignore. I wanted to push her words away, to convince myself that they didn’t matter, but they clung to me like a stain I couldn’t scrub out. It made me feel… small. Inadequate. Like no matter what I did, I would always be second to her. A herbal tea? I scoffed to myself, gripping the edge of the counter. I’ll give him more than that. “Miss?” A startled voice broke through my thoughts. I turned sharply, my expression unreadable, to see one of the maids standing there with a pile of bedspreads in her arms. Her eyes were wide as she looked at me. “What?” I asked, irritation lacing my tone. She hesita

    Leo’s POVMy hand shot out, grabbing Dante by the throat again —but this time, I didn’t squeeze. I leaned in, my golden eyes burning with a primal, ancient rage. Does the name Blackwood ring a bell?" I growled, my face mere inches from his. I watched his features quiver, the slight tremor betraying the fear he was too proud to voice.He didn’t answer. Didn’t even blink.Rage ignited in my veins. My fist slammed into his face—once, twice, again and again—until the wet crunch of bone and flesh filled the air. Blood sprayed across my shirt, warm and slick, but I didn’t stop. Not until his head lolled and his breath came in ragged, shuddering gasps.“Ivy Blackwood,” I murmured, my voice like a death sentence. “The woman you kidnapped weeks ago. The one whose life you almost ruined. The one you would have killed if she hadn’t escaped you.” Dante's body jerked violently beneath my grip, his muscles spasming as I held him in place. I struck his face—once, twice—the sharp crack echoin

    Leo's patience snapped.The power in his voice sent a tremor through the air. “You have no idea who you’re speaking to! I am the Alpha King. She is my mate. How dare you harbor feelings for the Queen of our realm?” Connor’s expression faltered, his eyes flickering with something unreadable. Then— Leo’s golden irises darkened, flashing with raw power. Connor’s wolf recognized it.A shudder rippled through him. His wolf whimpered, instinctively bowing its head. Leo stepped closer, his voice a deadly whisper. Realization struck him like a bolt of lightning. This was it.This was why his wolf instinctively bowed whenever Leo spoke. This was why his body yielded despite the Alpha blood running through his veins. The truth settled in his bones, heavy and unshakable. ‘So this is the invisible king of our realm…’The man who ruled from the shadows. The one who never showed his face, yet his presence alone commanded submission. The ruthless, unchallenged ruler every pack whispere

    Alpha Raul’s growl ripped through the chamber, primal and raw, shaking the very walls. His claws unsheathed in an instant, his chest rising and falling with ragged fury. But Ivy? She only smiled.“Like I said,” he murmured, ignoring Ivy's taunts, his grip tightening on her jaw. “I’ll do what I didn’t do last time. I’ll mark you as mine.” He leaned closer, his breath hot on her face. “Only then will you know your place. Only then will you learn total submission.”The words sent ice plunging through my veins. Ivy's eyes widened. “No. No, you can’t fucking do that.” She fought, jerking her head away, but his grip was iron. “Hold her down!” His men obeyed instantly. She screamed as they pinned her down, their hands like shackles against her arms and legs. Her body shook violently, every instinct inside her roaring in defiance. The king’s fangs elongated, his pupils dilating as his gaze locked onto her neck. His breath was warm against her skin, and she knew what was coming

    Ivy’s POVMy eyes snapped open, my chest rising and falling frantically. The moment I woke, I felt the cold bite of metal against my wrists and ankles. Chains. Again. My body ached, my head swam, but it was the collar around my neck that burned the most. A cruel reminder that my wolf was trapped, silenced. I rattled the chains, yanking at them as fury flooded through me. My voice came out raw, shaking with rage. “You killed her!” I screamed, my body jerking against the restraints. The memory of the vision burned behind my eyes, searing itself into my soul. Nyxara. Her pain. Her death. I had seen it. I had felt it. And the monster who had done it was standing right in front of me. The king. He was here. Watching me with a dark, satisfied smirk. Beside him stood the man who had sprinkled something on me before I passed out—his sorcerer, no doubt. Three other men lingered in the room, their presence nothing more than shadows at the edges of my vision. “Let me go and watch m

    Ivy’s POVMy eyes snapped open, my chest rising and falling frantically. A dim glow flickered above me, casting shadows along the stone walls. My breath hitched as I realized I couldn’t move. Cold metal encased my wrists, the chains rattling softly as I struggled. The ridiculous outfit I had been forced into still clung to my skin like an insult. Panic gripped me, but before I could fully process my situation, the door creaked open. A woman stepped inside. My breath caught in my throat almost immediately.She was stunning—otherworldly. Curls of pure white cascaded down her shoulders, glowing in the faint light. Her eyes, a vibrant shade of green, gleamed like a forest after a fresh rain. Every part of her radiated an ethereal beauty, but there was something else—something almost… sorrowful. I swallowed hard. “Excuse me?” I rasped. “Can you help me out of this?” The woman didn’t react. She wasn’t even looking at me. Instead, her gaze was fixed on a small wooden table besi

I reached out, desperate for something—anything—to grab onto, but there was nothing. Just the endless fall, the cold air biting into my skin.Then—I hit the ground.Pain exploded through my body, my bones rattling from the impact. But the surface beneath me wasn’t solid—it was wet. Warm.I gasped, my hands sinking into a thick, viscous liquid. My breath hitched. The scent hit me first. Metallic. Sharp.Blood.It was everywhere.I scrambled up, my fingers coated in red, my gown soaked through. The entire floor—no, the entire room—was drenched in it, seeping from the walls, pooling in the corners, dripping from the ceiling in slow, deliberate drops.Drip. Drip. Drip.I trembled, my heart pounding against my ribs as I staggered backward. My breath came in sharp, panicked gasps. This couldn’t be real. It wasn’t real.A hallucin

    Lila’s POVThe night air was crisp, the city stretching out beneath me in a sea of golden lights. Colorado had been a good choice. No responsibilities, no stress—just endless luxury. Exactly what I deserved. It was so easy to become Aria. To take her place. My mind suddenly raced to that morning when I was supposed to travel. The night before, my father and uncle had stormed into my room. Leo had discovered that I wasn’t Ivy, and I had to think fast. I made up a lie. I told them that Leo had cheated on me with someone named Isabella, that he was furious because I had found out and was threatening to ruin me if I didn’t come back to him. I made myself sound terrified, my voice breaking as I clutched my throat. It helped that his imprints were still there, dark bruises forming along my skin. Richard and Marcus were beyond furious and vowed that they would have him arrested for trespassing and assaulting me.I painted him as an obsessive psychopath. And of course, they belie

The weight around my throat burned, the collar digging into my skin like a brand of ownership. I didn’t want to be owned. I didn’t want to be anyone’s.My head pounded, my limbs heavy and unresponsive. Darkness still surrounded me, but I could sense the presence of others. Watching. Waiting.I forced my eyes open.A dimly lit chamber greeted me—stone walls, damp and cold. A throne sat at the far end of the room, and on it, the king lounged, golden eyes gleaming with satisfaction.He was waiting for me.I clenched my jaw. My wolf stirred faintly inside me, weak, barely there. Whatever magic that bound me was suffocating her.I looked down. I was wearing a flowing black garment that draped around me, the dark fabric swaying with every subtle movement. Real flowers adorned the fabric—delicate yet striking black roses, their petals velvety and deep as the night. The sight

    Ivy's POV Nyxara?Who the hell is that? And why is he so sure I was her?The name sent a shudder through my very bones. It felt foreign yet familiar, like a song I had once known but long forgotten. The king chuckled, as if he could sense the shift inside me. “Ah… you don’t remember, do you?” He brushed a strand of silver fur from my face, his grip tightening for just a moment. “But your blood does. Your soul does.” His grin was sharp, victorious. “And soon, I will make you remember everything.”I whimpered, desperately willing my wolf to rise, to fight, or at the very least, to shift back into my human form. But my body refused to obey. I was trapped—helpless within my own skin. He watched me tremble, amusement flickering in his golden eyes. With a slow, mocking tsk, he shook his head.“Did you really think I wasn’t prepared for something like this?” His voice was soft, dangerous. "That collar around your neck—oh, you didn’t notice?" Collar? I tried to shift, to shake, b
