Zara Petali

The Lycan Gifted Slave

Poor Lucy Wood never foresaw things getting this dire. She was borne by a slave woman who died after giving birth to her and treated as a slave by her step mother and sister. Shunned and rejected by Alpha Thorne-her fated mate-she is all but shattered in her lonely misery. Yet, the fates can be hilariously sadistic. Not even six months into her abandonment, Lucy finds herself in the custody of the most feared Lycan King, Tristan Landon. Fearsome, with a reputation to make even the bravest cower, Tristan rules with an iron fist, his law extending over the whole realm of the werewolves. Still, beneath the commanding and intimidating exterior, Lucy feels that there must be something far more complicated about Tristan-some dangerous allure, perhaps even a spark of something more than dominance. Thrown into the world of royal politics, ancient bloodlines, and dangerous plots, Lucy's life does another flip when Tristan declares her his future Luna. His impulsive move rattles the very core of the kingdom, further enraging Zara-a cunning she-wolf who laid claim to the position of Luna. Jealousy knows no bounds, and with Lucy's former mate, Alpha Thorne, they become a force to be reckoned with. They both join in an attempt to destroy everything she has ever loved. While trying to learn the ropes of her new position, Lucy learns some shocking truths about her lineage: deep inside her lies a power unlike any other-the power of the Lamia pack, a lineage of Alphas forgotten by time, whose powers can alter the very fate of all werewolf packs. But as Spiderman knows, with great power comes great danger, and soon Lucy's strength will be both blessing and curse. Smitten by his growing feelings for Lucy and his need to control the powerful forces surrounding him, Tristan must ultimately decide if their bond is worth the risk of his kingdom. But when Alpha Thorne kidnaps Lucy's child, an ancient prophecy is illuminated-one that speaks of a great reckoning, one where the future of the packs hangs in the balance of Lucy's talents. Amongst betrayals lurking at every turn and old and new enemies threatening her at every pass, Lucy must make her way through a maze of deceit, love, and power. Now, will she be able to find her trust in Tristan and become the Luna their world needs, or will the darkness within tear them apart for good? This is a thrilling tale of love, power, and betrayal. Lucy must rise above the shadows to claim her own fate before it is too late.

Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.

Aquis: Curing Zodiac Island

In a world teetering on the edge of collapse, two unlikely souls are drawn together by fate—and the hidden powers they never knew they possessed. Leon, a quiet yet fiercely determined young man, harbors a dangerous ability: he can manipulate time itself, a gift he’s only begun to understand. After fleeing a world ravaged by a mysterious infection, he finds himself stranded on an isolated island that holds dark secrets far older—and far deadlier—than anything he could have imagined. Zara, a sharp-tongued and fiercely independent woman with the rare power of empathy, can sense the emotions and intentions of others. She’s not one to trust easily, but Leon’s quiet strength draws her in, even as they clash over what comes next in their battle for survival. Together, they must learn to balance their powers—and their undeniable connection—if they are to survive the malevolent force that controls the island. As the infection spreads, turning both people and animals into twisted versions of themselves, the duo discovers that the virus is no mere sickness—it’s a curse, awakened by ancient rituals and controlled by an intelligent, unseen force that stalks them in the shadows. To save themselves and the island, they must decipher cryptic symbols, face their deepest fears, and confront the darkness that lies within the very core of the island—and themselves. In the midst of danger, their banter becomes their anchor: “For someone with a godlike power, you sure second-guess yourself a lot.” “And for someone who can read emotions, you’re awfully good at hiding yours.” “Maybe I just don’t want to admit how much I like you.” “Good thing time’s on our side.” But as they uncover more about the island’s cursed past, their bond deepens, and the stakes become even higher. The line between love and survival blurs as Leon and Zara face choices that could tear them apart—or bring them closer than they ever imagined. Can they stop the infection before it consumes the island—and each other? Or will the forces lurking in the shadows finally claim their due? Aquis is a story of love, survival, and the power that comes with embracing the darkness within.
