Styx House
"But Rai, it would be lots of fun", Amythyst Deloz said as she sank into the couch next to her best friend Morai Styx.
"I already told you, it's not my style" Morai responded as she was getting bored of the current conversation about the upcoming Moon Dance.
"Since when did having fun and being a teen go out of your style." "Come on Morai don't be a grandma"
"Just so you know, my grandma is pretty bad ass." "I just don't count going to a sappy dance as fun"
"Ohh cmon we all know you don't want to go cause no one has asked you out yet", Seraphyne said as she joined the conversation.
"Ohh hey mum junior, this conversation is a little below your age", Morai rolled her eyes as her elder sister got comfy in the couch.
Seraphyne smirked, unfazed by Morai's sarcasm. "Someone's got to keep your illegal ass in check. Besides, I'm just stating facts. You're waiting for someone to ask you out."
Amythyst chimed in, "Yeah, Rai, you can't deny it. You've been so focused on studies and training lately."
"That's because I have goals, unlike some people who only care about parties."
Seraphyne raised an eyebrow. "Goals are great, but you're 17, Morai. It's okay to have fun too."
Amythyst nodded. "Come on, Rai! The Moon Dance will be epic! Live music, magical decorations..."
Morai sighed, shaking her head. "Ohh shut up Amythyst. You're only excited cause of all the boys and free drinks"
Amythyst grinned. "Well, what's wrong with that? You need to lighten up, Rai."
"Amythyst has a point. You've been cooped up in those dusty tomes and training sessions for too long."
"Well I got to go", Amythyst said as she got up to grabbed her purse.
"Need a ride Amy?", Seraphyne asked. "I'm going out, I could drop you off"
"Nope mum junior, I brought my car." "What about you grandma, get your *ss up let's go", Amythyst said as she dragged Morai to her feet.
"Where are we going?", Morai asked as she made her way to her room to change from her biker shorts.
"Ohh you should wear this", Amythyst said as she picked out pink sweatpants and a white cropped tee.
"Didn't you hear the question or you finally got cum in your ears?" Morai said after shoving the pink sweatpants back into her wardrobe and settling for a black denim mini skirt and a matching corset.
"I just need someone to hang out with and do some school shopping with", Amythyst responded as she applied some of Morai's eyeliner.
Morai bent over to wear her black Mary Jane's over her white knee high socks. "Is that a tinge of emotion I hear?" "Why do you do so much shopping, you have tons of clothes. "
"And why do you always choose to dress like you stepped out of a black and white movie."
"Talk to me when you stop dressing like a box of crayons", Morai said as she brushed her long flowy red hair. "Be nice to me, I could cancel right now"
Amythyst pouted, applying another coat of eyeliner. "Fine, I'll behave. But only because I need your expertise in picking out the perfect boots."
Morai smirked, grabbing her black leather jacket. "You mean the perfect boots to match your rainbow-colored outfit."
Amythyst grinned. "Hey, this outfit is iconic. You're just jealous."
As they headed out, Seraphyne called from the couch, "Be back before midnight, Morai. And no trouble."
Morai rolled her eyes. "Yes, mum junior."
Outside, Amythyst's bright yellow sports car gleamed in the sunlight. "Really, you picked the yellow one today?" Morai groaned as she got into the passenger seat. "Looks like a unicorn barf."
"Ohh shut up." Amythyst laughed, starting the engine. "You're just mad because you can't pull off yellow."
Morai smirked. "I can pull off anything, unlike some people's questionable fashion choices."
As they drove off, the city's vibrant streets unfolded before them. Neon signs and billboards illuminated the environment.
"Where's our first stop?" Morai asked, tapping her black Mary Janes against the floor.
"Blooms & Baubles," Amythyst replied, grinning. "I need new accessories for the Moon Dance."
Morai raised an eyebrow. "I thought we were going school shopping. You're really set on this dance, aren't you?"
"Technically, it's school shopping."
"How is buying Moon Dance accessories school shopping?"
Amythyst winked. "We're shopping for the 'school' of social etiquette. And I need to make a statement."
Morai chuckled. "You're impossible."
They arrived at Blooms & Baubles, and Amythyst dragged Morai inside.
Maggie, the owner, greeted them warmly. "Welcome, lovelies! What brings you to Blooms & Baubles?"
Amythyst bounced up. "Moon Dance prep! We need the perfect accessories."
Maggie's eyes sparkled. "Ah, the Moon Dance! I have just the things."
As they browsed, Morai noticed a beautiful, antique-style bracelet.
"What's this?" Morai asked, picking up the bracelet.
Maggy's smile faltered. "Oh, that's... just an old piece. Not for sale.
"Why not?"
Maggy hesitated before responding, "It's... complicated."
Morai raised an eyebrow but dropped the subject, focusing on finding the perfect boots to match Amythyst's "rainbow-colored outfit."
Amythyst tried on several pairs, modeling each for Morai's approval.
"Too sparkly?" Amythyst asked, striking a pose in front of the mirror.
Morai chuckled. "You're asking me? You're the sparkle expert."
Amythyst giggled. "Someone's got to bring some light into this dark, gloomy city."
As they shopped, Amythyst spotted a stunning black choker with a tiny, delicate moonstone pendant.
"Rai, look!" She exclaimed. "Try it on."
Morai hesitated but ultimately put on the choker. The moonstone glimmered against her skin.
"Stunning," Maggy said, smiling. "You should keep it."
Amythyst nodded. "Definitely. It's yours, Rai."
"Ohh please Maggy. You'd say anything to make a sale", Morai said as she delicately removed the choker.
Maggy laughed, "Guilty as charged, dear. But truly, that choker suits you."
Amythyst grinned. "Told you, Rai. You need a little sparkle in your life."
Morai rolled her eyes,"You're going to turn me into a rainbow loving, sparkly disaster."
"That's the plan."
They finalized their purchases and left the shop. They walked to Amythyst's bright yellow sports car, parked nearby.
"Next stop?" Morai asked, settling into the passenger seat.
Amythyst started the engine. "School supply shopping. The boring stuff."
Morai groaned. "Finally, something normal."
As they drove off, Morai noticed a flyer on the windshield.
"Moon Dance: Under the Stars"
Amythyst's eyes sparkled. "Looks like the Moon Dance fever is spreading."
"Fever is the definitely the most appropriate term".
"I stood at the edge of my heart and watched him choose her. In the end, I was not the one he needed. I was simply the one he settled for." - Noelle ~~~~~~~ I thought I was the one he loved. But a few days before our wedding, I saw him in a way I never had before. His eyes softened as he spoke to her. His first love, and the very woman who had left him in pieces. Heartbreak was something I knew too well. And as I watched the love he still held for her in his eyes, I realized what I had to do. I couldn't marry a man who wasn't truly mine. With no means to cancel the wedding and lacking the courage to confront him, I made a desperate choice to leave. I painfully gave his first love my treasured engagement ring thinking it was for the best and the only way to free myself. But when he saw that ring on her finger, the fragile world I had tried to escape began to shatter. His obsession to find me and bring me back ignited a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
"Please trust me, I didn't do anything." "I don't believe you. I am rejecting you as my Queen and giving you the punishment of death." Alina was living outside her pack for five years. Her parents didn't try to contact her and always ignored her. Her best friend convinced her to go back to their pack and she agreed. But she had never imagined what was waiting there for her.

But who knew that he would get a mate who was just a simple Omega with no powers and strengths?

Meanwhile, Ethan was an arrogant Alpha who thought a weak Omega could not be his companion. Ethan's cousin, Ryan Iversen, who came back from abroad and was the actual heir of the pack, never tried to get the position nor did he show any interest in it. He was a popular playboy Alpha but when he came back to the pack, one thing captured his eyes and that was Allison.

Linsey was stood up by her groom to run off with another woman. Furious, she grabbed a random stranger and declared, "Let's get married!" She had acted on impulse, realizing too late that her new husband was the notorious rascal, Collin. The public laughed at her, and even her runaway ex offered to reconcile. But Linsey scoffed at him. "My husband and I are very much in love!" Everyone thought she was delusional. Then Collin was revealed to be the richest man in the world. In front of everyone, he got down on one knee and held up a stunning diamond ring. "I look forward to our forever, honey."
"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned. There'd be bloodshed if he touched her, but the sight of blood always did fascinate him. * When Susanna flees from her husband, she stumbles right into the arms of her devilishly handsome neighbour with a brooding glare. He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
