Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
Ten years after being exiled for betraying her family, **Seraphina** rushes to the hospital after learning her estranged father has been attacked. Her brother’s hatred reignites old wounds, blaming her for destroying their family. But when her dying father asks to see “his daughter,” Seraphina must face a devastating truth—and the past she’s tried to forget.
He didn’t deserve to hear lies in the corridors about his parents reconciling. I didn’t have to look far. I was walking toward the west wing when I heard Blackthorne steel in the air-his father’s clipped tone, his mother’s sharper one. They were speaking in the study. The door was ajar, just enough for the…
My thighs clenched, my pussy throbbing with raw want. I could feel moisture gathering just from the friction, my body betraying me with every pulse. “Kieran.” His name tore out of me, ragged, but it no longer sounded like resistance. It sounded like surrender. He groaned like it undid him, head dipping lower, teeth grazing…
I blinked up at the ceiling for a few disorienting seconds before I summoned the energy to sit up. And then the next thing I knew, his hands were bracing against my back, gently lifting me up to my feet. My first instinct was to lean into him, clutch his forearm, and never let go,…
The sun streamed in golden slants across the dining hall, glinting off silver cutlery and porcelain plates-and one conspicuously empty chair. Kieran’s. His absence should have been a relief-after last night’s reckless brush with temptation, the last thing I needed was to meet his eyes over toast and tea-but instead it left a hollow weight…
SERAPHINA’S POV The villa felt unusually bright when we returned, the sunlight spilling over the floors like molten gold. I barely had time to process the warmth before Daniel’s sharp voice cut through the silence. “Mom!” His tiny feet thundered down the hall, and he skidded to a halt in front of me, humming with…

Fuck, she had nearly drowned. And yet, I couldn’t stop the surge of want, inappropriate and raw, cutting through the adrenaline. I forced my eyes up, away, anywhere but the swell of her chest beneath that soaked fabric. Sera caught me looking. AIR Her eyes widened, and a flush rose across her cheeks, deeper than…
I bent and kissed Daniel’s forehead, lingering longer than I meant to. “Sleep well, my love.” He sighed, his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm as he finally gave in to slumber. I slipped my hand from his and stood, the soft creak of the mattress marking my retreat. The villa was quiet…
‘Best for everyone except me,’ I thought bitterly, but didn’t say it aloud. When she left, silence pressed in. The villa felt cavernous at night-the waves distant, the air thick with salt and heat. I walked back to my room, each step heavier than the last. I should have felt relieved. But all I could…
My attention immediately diverted to Sera as her knees buckled and she slid to the ground. Still bracing my arms around her, I pulled her to me, reaching for her injured leg. “Ow,” she groaned, her face scrunched up in pain. “Fuck,” I swore as my gaze dropped to the wound. Two small, sharp puncture…
