These themes are present all throughout the book in different ways. 3. This book is not just about the FL and ML, the cast of characters and side characters are full of rich backstories and their own chapters that play into the central plot of the story. 4. FL is young, she is flawed and she WILL piss you off. We all need time and experience to grow up. Join my discord server:

Enemies always meet on a narrow road and when they meet war breaks out. They met as kids and fought but Zi Han lost. They met in the army as recruits and even then Zi Han lost. He lost again as he remained a sergeant while Yi Chen was promoted to the position of Marshal. Even when his dark history swallowed him whole and shifted allegiance to become the Universe's most infamous assassin he still lost to Yi Chen. Zi Han, "Damn it! Why won't you let me win." Yi Chen, "I can let you win in bed if you like?" Zi Han, "......" When did enemies graduate from rolling in the dirt fighting to rolling in the sheets..... fighting? That's the million-dollar question.

The last thing he remembered before waking up in bed with a waiting maid was Cyril throwing down his cell phone and calling the story he was reading trash. He couldn't believe he was trapped in a story he called trash as a character who would be beheaded after trying to kill the Crown Prince on his wedding day. I am doomed to die? Is that true?

I got drunk during the Annual Alpha Conference and accidentally slept with Anton, the Alpha of the rivaling clan! I managed to sneak out of the hotel so that I wouldn't embarrass the pack. I told no one other than my younger sister, although I did not mention who he was. The present: Three weeks later, I reached adulthood and was about to take over as the pack's Alpha. I would be transforming for the first time at eighteen, awakening my inner wolf as everyone watched. I was on my knees, using all my strength to transform… But nothing happened. Had I failed? Not resigned to my fate, I tried again. But that was when my heart hurt as if someone was grabbing it and my belly heated up as the rest of my body screamed in pain… I drop to the floor, unconscious. When I woke up, the first words I heard were from the doctor. "She's pregnant…" In our world, any werewolf pregnant with children not belonging to their mates were treated as pariahs, oppressed by one and all. I did not dare to look up at my parents, who would obviously be disappointed. "Baby," said my mother. "Just get an abortion, and we'll continue the ceremony. You are still the Alpha of our pack. "Ellie," said my father. "If you don't get an abortion, you will never be my daughter ever again. As much as I loved my family, I was the only one my child could count on. That was why I decided to leave home. Thankfully, my younger sister managed to get Anton's number, but the only thing he said over the phone was, "It's been so long. I can't remember what really happened." So, from now on, I would be a single parent to my child! I swore to give him the good life and to help all pariah wolves find a place to settle! Years passed, and Anton was almost thirty. With his father's insistence, Anton finally found himself a mate… But who could explain why she was so disgusted with him?

"As if this was not enough the next day you made it to the headlines sleeping with someone as though I meant nothing to you." "Honesty, I was so drunk that I mistook her to be you and slept with her, I tried so hard to contact you but I was unable to reach you , I have always just loved you." "Cut it out, I don't believe you anymore neither am I your girlfriend now nor your lover, I just hate you so it would be better if we live our lives our own way." she spoke coldly cleaning her eyes and then the waiter entered with their coffees. Jamie swallowed it as fast as she could then looked at her watch, it was 6:43. Charles took the courage to speak again "Please try to understand and listen to me...." but he was interrupted by Jamie "Mr. Cullen your time is over, you better hurry up, I will wait outside." Vol 3 :- Rachel the daughter of Jamie and Charles turn out to be a powerful witch queen as she fights evil she finds her love but before she turns powerful he dies, what will she do. "Done struggling, I was wondering why is that you are always surrounded by the women who want to throw themselves on you and the one you fall for just keeps pushing you away." Her eyes widened with shock, she began to struggle again "Let go of me and better get one of those girls who throw themselves on you, I am not interested just get away." she punched his nose tight but nothing happened to him instead he laughed "Aggressive, huh, I like that, now you see how you are different from all those girls. Let me tell you something be a good girl and I won't do anything to you, try doing anything against my orders and you will be punished along with that Kevin because I know exactly where he is and what I have to do with him." Rachel stopped struggling and was lost in her thoughts when Robert placed a kiss on her lips, tearing them apart, he pushed his tongue inside and down her throat, instead of feeling angry, she felt hot and satisfied as if this was the perfect kiss she had ever wanted, there were tears in her eyes. Robert placed a hand on her cheek and said "Rachel you are going to be very powerful so you have to do good and protect the people around you and please find someone who can love you more than me." She cried out louder and placing her arms around him she buried her head into his chest which was now covered with his blood "No don't say that. I beg you don't say that, please tell me how can I save you." Robert placed his arm around her and said gently, his heart was clenching with pain not because of the blade in there but because this condition of Rachel was unbearable for him "Be good." Rachel looked into his eyes "Please don't do this Rob. I can't live without you, I will also die with you because it was me who did this and I can never forgive myself." He gathered his strength and placed a hand under her chin then kissed her lips for the last time. It was so passionate and painful that it would break anyone's heart. He let go of her and before he could say anything a lot of people entered the room that Lora had called, they all charged towards Rachel but Robert wrapped her into his arms providing his body as a shield to protect her. Rachel who was still crying shouted in pain as if she was being hit instead of him. She struggled out of Robert's grip which was still very strong even though he was loosing his strength. She looked at him and shouted "Let go of me, I will kill them all." He gave her his most charming smile and he said "Let me protect you for the last time." His words broke Rachel's heart and she struggled out of his grip even harder, tears flowing uncontrollably from her eyes. It was as if those waterworks were not ready to stop. She gave him a hit on his face and said angrily "Stop saying that, don't you dare leave me or I will kill you."
