Cassandra Jameson

Den Alphas trotzen

Zwei Jahrhunderte nach dem Großen Krieg wurde endlich Frieden zwischen Menschen und Werwölfen geschlossen, zumindest glauben das alle. Werwölfe herrschen wie Götter, und die Menschen sind sich ihrer wahren Stellung in der neuen Weltordnung nicht bewusst. Um dieses zerbrechliche Gleichgewicht aufrechtzuerhalten, wird jedes Jahr eine Handvoll "glücklicher" Menschen aus verschiedenen Bezirken ausgewählt, um die Lunaris-Akademie zu besuchen, eine prestigeträchtige Einrichtung, die Ruhm, Status und die Chance verspricht, sich unter die Elite zu mischen. Die Auserwählten werden als die wenigen Glücklichen gepriesen, die dazu bestimmt sind, mächtige Alphas zu heiraten und zu Luna aufzusteigen. Dieses Jahr ist Violet Purple unter den Auserwählten, sehr zur Überraschung aller. Für das Waisenmädchen, das von einer in Ungnade gefallenen Prostituierten adoptiert wurde, ist dies eine goldene Eintrittskarte in ein besseres Leben, so sagt man ihr. Aber die Lunaris Academy ist nicht das Paradies, als das sie dargestellt wird. Alles, was man Violet und ihren Mitmenschen beigebracht hat, ist eine Lüge. Die Menschen sind bei weitem nicht gleichberechtigt; sie sind Spielfiguren in einem viel größeren Spiel. Die Akademie ist nichts weiter als ein vergoldeter Käfig, und die Studenten sind Lämmer, die zur Schlachtbank geführt werden, Spielzeuge für die Alphas, mit denen sie in ihren rücksichtslosen Spielen spielen. Zu allem Übel erregt Violet die Aufmerksamkeit der gefährlichsten Spieler in diesem Spiel, der Terror Four: das Alpha des Nordens, das Alpha des Südens, das Alpha des Ostens und das Alpha des Westens. Jeder von ihnen ist gefährlicher, verdrehter und mächtiger als der andere. Aber auch unter sich sind die Alphas gespalten, jeder mit seinen eigenen tödlichen Ambitionen. Und doch haben sie alle ein Auge auf sie geworfen. Sie erwarten von Violet, dass sie mitspielt, dass sie sich fügt wie die anderen, die ihnen zu Füßen liegen, dass sie sich ihren Spielen unterwirft. Aber Violet ist nicht wie die anderen. Sie weigert sich, sich zu beugen. Sie wird sich ihnen allen widersetzen. *********** Mit einem Grinsen, das ihr Unbehagen bereitete, reichte er ihr den Antrag. "Genehmigen Sie diesen." Direktorin Jamesons Neugier übermannte sie, als sie ihm das Papier abnahm und mit den Augen den Text überflog. Fast sofort blieb ihr der Atem im Hals stecken, und ihre Augen weiteten sich ungläubig. "Was zum ...?" "Es ist perfekt, nicht wahr?" Ashers Stimme klang fast schadenfroh. Verdammter Psychopath! Jameson konnte kaum glauben, was sie da las. "Mr. Nightshade, bei allem Respekt, diese Bewerberin....this hat gerade zugegeben..." Sie konnte den Satz nicht zu Ende bringen, immer noch entsetzt über den eindeutigen Inhalt der Bewerbung. Sie holte tief Luft und fuhr fort: "Es tut mir leid, aber ich kann das nicht genehmigen." "Sie hat mich herausgefordert", sagte Archer mit einem dunklen Schimmer in den Augen. "Was?" "'Warte, bis du mich im Bett siehst'", wiederholte er die fettgedruckte Zeile aus dem Antrag und sein Grinsen wurde breiter. "Und ich kann es kaum erwarten, es herauszufinden." "Mr. Nightshade-" Er stand auf und unterbrach ihren Protest, als er sie mit einem intensiven Blick fixierte. "Genehmigen Sie den Antrag. Ich werde nicht noch einmal fragen." Ohne ihre Antwort abzuwarten, verließ Asher das Büro in der Gewissheit, dass sie seinen Anweisungen folgen würde. Er bekam immer, was er wollte. Archer Nightshade ging mit federndem Schritt den Flur entlang. Zum ersten Mal seit langer Zeit fühlte er sich lebendig, sein Blut pulsierte vor Erregung. Die anderen Kardinalalphas hatten keine Ahnung, was er vorhatte, aber sie würden es bald merken. Er hatte gerade das Spiel in Gang gesetzt. Und das Ziel war Violet Purple. Das Spiel war eröffnet. Anmerkung: Dies ist keine gewöhnliche Werwolfgeschichte. Alles, was man über Werwölfe zu wissen glaubt, wird in diesem Buch in Frage gestellt. Und ja, es ist ein umgekehrter Harem. Probieren Sie das Buch doch einmal aus.

Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all. *********** With a grin that made her uneasy, he handed the application to her. “Approve this one.” Principal Jameson’s curiosity got the better of her as she took the paper from him, her eyes scanning the text. Almost immediately, her breath caught in her throat, her eyes widening in disbelief. “What the...?” “It’s perfect, isn’t it?” Asher’s voice was almost gleeful. Fucking psychopath! Jameson could hardly believe what she was reading. “Mr. Nightshade, with all due respect, this applicant….this girl just admitted to—” She couldn’t even finish the sentence, still horrified at the explicit nature of the application. Taking a deep breath, she continued, “I’m sorry, but I cannot approve this.” “She’s issued me a challenge,” Archer said, a dark gleam in his eyes. “What?” “‘Wait till you see me in bed,’” he repeated the bold line from the application, his grin widening. “And I can’t wait to find out.” “Mr. Nightshade—” He stood up, cutting off her protest as he fixed her with an intense stare. “Approve the application. I won’t ask again.” Without waiting for her response, Asher strode out of the office, confident she would follow his orders. He always got what he wanted. Archer Nightshade walked down the hall, a spring in his step. For the first time in a long while, he felt alive, his blood pulsing with excitement. The other Cardinal Alphas had no idea what he was up to, but it would soon hit them. He’d just set the game in motion. And the target was Violet Purple. It was game on. Note : This is not your average werewolf story. Eveything you think you know about werewolves would be challenged in this book. And yes, it is reverse harem. Do give the book a try.

An angel‘s road to hell

What happens if the one transcendent being that cares for mortals fell and got a second chance in a world full of magic, intrigue and possibly even friendships? Does the past determine the future or are we all able to pick our own destiny? An angel, one of the two nigh immortal species in existence, has been hunted and killed by his own kind because he wasn’t prepared to watch silently while his people followed their own desires to whatever end. When, against all odds, he opened his eyes again, he was someone else, his past and powers hidden deep within him. On an ancient world, with advanced magic but medieval technology, he was reborn as Cassandra Pendragon, the youngest daughter of one of the five royal families on Boseiju, the home of the fox tribe, the kitsune. As she grew up, who she was and who she had been, started shaping her future. Forgotten friends and unknown enemies began knocking at her door and while she struggled to find her way between the past and the present, the winds of war were already blowing across her home. I‘ll try to publish at least 2 chapters a week, probably more. The first story arc is pretty much mapped out. Should be around 150 or 160 chapters for the first volume (it’s taking much longer than I expected) and the second one is nearly finished as well. Try it, it should be one hell of a ride. One more thing: the first two chapters are more or less a prologue and if you want to, you can skip them, I wouldn’t recommend it, though. The writing style as well as the perspective shifts dramatically, afterwards. As for trigger warnings: it’s going to get gory from time to time, and the MC often has to pay a toll in blood. Additionally there are -mildly- sexualised scenes, once in a while, but nothing graphic. Lastly, somewhen webnovel changed the description box from female lead to female oriented. It’s mandatory and I can’t change it either way but I have no clue if the book is catering male or female preferences. I hope the description above makes up for whatever confusion it might cause.

Reborn As Cursed Alpha's Mate

What happens when a goddess falls in love with a shifter? Asara; the goddess of love, was punished by her father, the god of thunder. Her crime being falling in love with a mortal shifter Alpha. To pay for her sins she was reborn as Cassandra LeBlanc; a mortal Princess in the magical Kingdom of Speldaria. Her family and kingdom, except her middle sister, shunned her for she was born without any magical abilities and she had no recollections of her true identity. Her betrothed, the powerful mage commander of the Speldaria, was unbothered by her. He wished for someone strong. Cassandra’s life was toppled when she was gifted a warrior slave by the mighty Alpha of Dusartine. She was asked to take part in the Yearly Arena Event by collaborating with the warrior. Cassandra who hated ‘The Arena’ with her very breath. A place where blood flowed like wine and life was cheaper than the very air they breathed didn't understand her purpose in it. On top of that, the mysterious warrior affected her in unimaginable ways. His hypnotic gaze unsettled her. His rare essence overwhelmed her. His muscular bronzed body consumed her with sinful thoughts. Even the dreams of her past life plagued her. When ‘The Arena' began the hidden agendas and underlying truths came to light and Cassandra was played a hand of fate. She was left with no choice but to give in and choose a path. The question would be. How will Cassandra grapple once she learns of the curse placed on her? Will she be able to obtain her magical abilities and stand up to her father? Who will help her along the journey? ~Excerpt~ Then she felt him, all of him. All his ruggedness. The strength of his arm. The softness of his lips. The grip of his hand. The warmth of his breath. Every muscle in her body went taut at the implications of sleeping in a man’s arms. She had never slept in a male’s embrace before. Her whole skin tingled like tiny sparks dancing on the very parts that connected with him. The crevices of her brain had these memories which weren't hers. This touch somehow didn't seem foreign to her. She felt safe in his soothing embrace and didn't wish to push him away and yet she knew this was far from appropriate. Cassandra tried to wriggle out of his hold, his arms seemed to be built from iron for they wouldn't budge. The light garment she had worn had lifted from her milky thigh baring it as his bronzed muscular one was draped on it. And now she could sense something poking her back. Her eyes suddenly expanded from the realisation and Cassandra fully panicked. “Let go!” She voiced out, heavily. Siroos slowly lifted his leg and slackened his hold on her waist so she could shuffle away. He had awakened when she had stiffened for the first time but wished to behold what she would try. With eyes blown wide she stole a glance towards the man who had her wrapped in his embrace like a precious treasure, his treasure. His molten gold eyes had flickered open and there was this softness and want with which he stared at her. Those soft brown curls cascaded over his eyes as he forgot to blink, watching the timeless beauty that she was. Her one-of-a-kind fragrance was a torture to his senses. How he wished to grab her dainty ankle, pull her from it and have her sprawled underneath him. To kiss the very skin that oozed such scent which was driving him insane. Instead, he bent his arm and placed it under his cheek using it like a pillow to watch her with desire-filled eyes. The awkward lull between them prolonged as Cassandra cleared her throat. “Did you have to climb on me to sleep?” “It wasn't intentional but was certainly enticing and definitely won't be the last time.” His deeply hypnotic voice was even more alluring this early in the morning as it resonated all around her. The book cover is mine.

Not A Cinderella Tale

"Aaa!" Cassandra was shocked and screamed as she woke beside a strange man. To make matters worse, the man was shirtless, and she was only wearing underwear. 'What's going on, why is he sleeping with me?' "Morning, sweetheart!" The man beside Cassandra greeted her. Cassandra gasped, shook her head, and pushed the man to the ground. "Hey, what are you doing in my bed? Are you trying to harass me? Get out of here!" Cassandra pointed her index finger at the door. 'I married him? Who is that man? How can I be married to him?' Cassandra thought to herself as she lifted the blanket slowly and saw a red stain on the sheet. "How can we get married? I don't know you at all, and this seems to be our first meeting," asked Cassandra, who still couldn't hide her surprise. Charles looked deeply into Cassandra's green eyes.

She also continued to shout Vivian's name because she was worried that something had happened to her half-sister. Cassandra's father slaps her immediately. "Dad, why did you slap me?
