She was the scatterbrained journalist Xia Yanxin, who infiltrated the Heaven-Earth Gala to interview for an exclusive story and inadvertently provoked the Supreme dark young master. Amidst the dark cruise and a twisted hunting game, she turned his world upside down. From then on, she became his private pet of the night, trapped in a fate from which she could not escape. He was the Prince of the night, the mischievous Long Yutian. He was used to controlling everything, scheming tirelessly for her, but in the end, he lost his heart... Perhaps in that hunting game, he was the real loser!

``` —No voy a ser definida como una desviada sin lobo. —No seré un peón en los juegos que juegan los Alfas. —Y me niego a ser emparejada con el extraño que irrumpió en mi vida y puso todo patas arriba... —Solo que esa podría ser mi mayor desafío hasta ahora. Esas eran las palabras que Lyla se repetía a sí misma al salir de la gala anual de hombres lobo, empapada en su sudor y sus feromonas. Hace apenas unos días, era una adolescente feliz existiendo en el mundo humano —tratando de pasar la universidad e irse lejos, olvidar todo lo que había pasado y comenzar la vida de nuevo— pero ahora, está en medio de la gala, tendida en el suelo con sus deseos a la vista de todos y el Alfa Ramsey Kincaid —el líder Licano del Trono de la Luna Blanca— extendiendo sus manos hacia ella. Si lo acepta, deshonraría a su familia porque no está en condiciones de mezclarse con nadie, qué decir del líder Licano que estaba fuera de su alcance y si se niega, corre el riesgo de ser enviada a la prisión de la manada por no cuidarse mejor durante su celo —sí, era un crimen para ella estar sin un lobo. Pero cuando él la toca, algo dentro de ella se remueve... ¿Deseos? ¡Sí! ¿Poderes ocultos por la diosa de la Luna? ¡Sí! Y quizás, solo quizás, los movimientos de su lobo perdido cuya voz puede calmar a los lobos feroces y curar... ¿Puede aprender a confiar en este hombre cuya boca dice una cosa y sus manos hablan otro idioma o se convertirá en un peón —una pieza de ajedrez en los juegos que juegan los Alfas? Una cosa es segura: Lyla Woodland había terminado de ser la pequeña y sucia desviada sin lobo de la manada. Es hora de que esta maravilla sin lobo les muestre de qué está hecha. #Amor lento #Profecías antiguas y etéreas #Triángulo amoroso —ML y mejor amiga de FL #Villano enamorado de FL Únete a mi grupo de discord: https://discord.gg/t2w9NgC4 ```

At 15, Takeshi Morin was the future of alpine skiing. 16 Now, he’s just a ghost, a shell of his former self, can he make a swift return to the competitive scene. Born in the heart of the French Alps to a Japanese mother and French father, Takeshi Laurent Morin was raised on snow and speed. A prodigy in alpine skiing—slalom, giant slalom, downhill—he was ranked number one in the world for his age. His destiny was carved into the mountain itself. But when his mother, a world champion skier, dies in a tragic training accident, everything unravels. Days later, his father takes his own life, leaving Takeshi behind in a silence too heavy to bear. Stricken with grief and guilt, he withdraws from competition. What once felt like freedom on skis becomes suffocating. He drops from the national circuit, isolates himself in the mountains, and devotes himself to caring for his grandmother, the last remaining piece of his fractured family. But even that slips away when a heated outburst leads to her sudden death—another loss he believes he caused. Takeshi quits skiing for good. Though he remains one of the most gifted alpine racers on the planet, the sport has become a graveyard of memories he can’t outrun. When he’s sent to live in Japan with his aunt—a stern but kind headmistress of an elite international school for winter athletes—Takeshi is thrown into a new world of rigid schedules, elite training, and old rivals. The school operates across five countries, with each branch competing every year. Takeshi is to enrol in the Japanese branch, with its winter campus nestled in the mountains of Nagano. It's built to shape champions in alpine and freestyle skiing, snowboarding, and more. It’s everything he once wanted—except now, he wants nothing to do with it. Forced into competition, Takeshi is haunted by the very mountains he must conquer. As the international interschool alpine circuit approaches, hosted by the French branch in the very region where he grew up and classmates from his past reappear on rival teams, he must confront the trauma, guilt, and pressure. They have buried his love of skiing. To heal, he’ll have to descend into the past—before he can climb back toward the future. Set against the icy precision and breakneck speed of elite alpine skiing, Ghost of the Slopes is a powerful coming-of-age story about loss, survival, and rediscovering who you are when everything you loved is gone.

Thrust into the continent's most elite academy and forced into a cutthroat competition fueled by ancient bloodlines and dark secrets, he finds himself on a path he never chose. He's not here to win, or even to survive with grace. He's just trying to dodge the next absurd task.

“I will not be defined as a ‘wolfless deviant’ I will not be a pawn in the 'games Alphas play' And I refuse to be mated to the stranger who crashed into my life and turned everything upside down… Only that might be my biggest challenge yet.” Those were the words Lyla chanted to herself as she left the annual werewolf gala, drenched in her sweat and her pheromones. Only days ago, she was a happy teenager existing in the human world – trying to get through college and go far away, forget everything she’s been through and start life afresh but now, she’s in the middle of the gala, sprawled on the ground with her desires in everyone’s face and Alpha Ramsey Kincaid – the Lycan leader of the White Moon Throne extending his hands towards her. If she takes it, she would bring dishonour to her family because she is in no state to be mingling with anyone, talk more of the Lycan leader who was out of her league and if she refuses, she risks being sent to the pack prison for not taking better care of herself during her heat - Yes, it was a crime for her to be without a wolf. But when he touches her, something inside her stirs… Desires? Yes! Powers hidden by the moon goddess? Yes! And maybe just maybe, the stirrings of her missing wolf whose voice can calm feral wolves and heal … Can she learn to trust this man whose mouth says a different thing and his hands speak another language or would she become a pawn – a piece of chess in the games ‘Alphas play’? One thing’s for certain- Lyla Woodlands was done being the pack’s little, dirty ‘wolfless deviant’. It’s time this wolfless wonder showed them what she’s made of. #Slow burn #Wispy old prophecies # Love Triangle - ML and FL best friend #Villian in love with FL Join my discord group: https://discord.gg/t2w9NgC4
