"Candles by design burn, and life by design ends. In the meantime doesn't it smell nice?" - Lola Viktor "Me personally, I never bust…” - Tyde Viktor "I have watched the heavens fall as a child. All of its splendor rained down on us and blessed us with its fertility. The demigods frequented my mothers tent, she was our village whore. I had too many siblings to count and none of us knew of our father.

In the heart of New York City, where towering skyscrapers reached for the heavens and the pulse of ambition beat ceaselessly, Sterling Enterprises stood as a monument to success. Its sleek glass facade mirrored the sun’s brilliance by day and the city’s vibrant lights by night. Inside its walls, the world of high-stakes business thrived, driven by the vision of its formidable CEO, Nathaniel Sterling. Nathaniel was a man forged by both triumph and turmoil. His rise to power had been marked by relentless drive, sharp intellect, and an unyielding will. He commanded respect with every decision and led Sterling Enterprises through waves of change with a steady hand. But the greater the success, the more dangerous the waters became. Amidst this world of high finance and power struggles, a new player had entered the arena—a bright and ambitious intern named Emma Clarke. Emma had come to Sterling Enterprises with dreams of making her mark, and her intelligence and resilience quickly set her apart from her peers. She navigated the competitive environment with a determination that caught Nathaniel’s attention. Their paths crossed under the most ordinary of circumstances: a chance meeting in the office elevator, a brief conversation over a coffee break. Yet, beneath the surface of these seemingly mundane interactions, a spark ignited—a connection neither fully understood but both felt deeply. As Emma’s role at Sterling Enterprises expanded, she found herself increasingly drawn into Nathaniel’s orbit. Her professional acumen and unflinching loyalty earned her a place in his inner circle, but it also exposed her to the dangers lurking in the shadows of the corporate world. Nathaniel, for his part, was both intrigued and unsettled by Emma. She was a breath of fresh air in the cutthroat world he inhabited, her presence a stark contrast to the scheming and duplicity that often surrounded him. Yet, as his feelings for her deepened, so did the stakes. The walls of his fortress were not impregnable, and enemies lurked in the corners, waiting for an opportunity to strike. Unbeknownst to them, the very connection that brought them closer would also set the stage for the greatest challenge of their lives. A storm was brewing on the horizon, one that would test their resolve and push their relationship to its limits. A rival’s ambition and a hidden agenda would soon collide with their growing love, casting a shadow over their future. As the city thrummed with energy and the ambitions of those who sought to control it, Nathaniel and Emma stood at the precipice of a tumultuous journey. The choices they made would determine not only their fates but also the future of Sterling Enterprises. In the whirlwind of corporate intrigue and personal upheaval, they would have to navigate a treacherous path. Their love story would be one of fiery passion and fierce loyalty, forged in the crucible of conflict and uncertainty. And as the first cracks of the storm began to show, neither Nathaniel nor Emma could foresee the full extent of the trials that awaited them. But one thing was certain: their lives would never be the same again.

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.
