Felix Ivanov doesn't need anyone. He's a principal dancer-an omega prodigy who built walls of ice and discipline around himself long before he ever set foot on a stage. When a scandal costs him everything at the most prestigious ballet academy in Russia, he accepts a calculated offer from Golden Hills University in Santa Sierra California looking to buy his prestige with a full scholarship, housing and amenities, as well as provided textbooks. Felix makes a mental vow: He'll dance, he'll win, and he'll strip The Lavrentiev Imperial School of Classical Dance of its prestige. He will make everyone who ever doubted him, regret it. No attachments. No distractions. No Alphas with perfectly symmetrical faces, pheromones like a biohazard, and childish tattoos who think they are going to own him. Kei Matherson has spent years managing a biology so intense that it terrifies him. Born to two Alpha parents, his dual-genes make everything from normal instincts to biological imperatives hit harder than anyone else's-his rut could be labeled category 5 on a hurricane scale, his pheromones were guerilla warfare, and a suppressant dose so high it'd probably tranquilize a horse, his self control is a hard-won discipline forged in the fear of always being too much. He's never met an omega who could keep up with him, and he'd long since given up looking... when a sharp-tongued Russian dancer moves into the apartment next door, Kei is drawn into his gravity-despite the fact that every warning sign screamed that he'd bolt the moment anyone got close enough to really know him. In a world where biology and destiny intertwine, every relationship comes with a price. But some bonds can't be locked away-and some debts aren't meant to be repaid. They're meant to be appreciated.

Ilsa, one of the three demon princes in Caelestes (The Demon Realm), decides to flee his home realm in search of freedom from his life of seclusion, mistreatment, and imprisonment. Ilsa quickly realized that he was not in the realm he intended to be in at all when he was almost immediately discovered... Not all hope was lost, however, because Ilsa found himself being offered a mutually beneficial arrangement--a marriage with the king of vampires, Cassian Elynbrigge. It worked out perfectly. Ilsa needed protection from his father, and what better protection than a kings army? Ilsa had been alone for millennia, and the idea of settling down with someone was appealing, and it wasn't like he had tons of experience talking to people given that he'd been secluded his entire life. It helped that said king was incredibly attractive, and treated him better than he'd ever been treated before. With the future spanning in front of him with infinite possibilities and the past looming behind him like a phantom, Ilsa comes to find the one thing he'd always wanted: somewhere to belong.

He was so sure the alpha would never choose him, would never look his way. All he can do now, though, is to stand in confusion before the man. Softly, voice a bit hoarse, he asks, "Why me?"

Nelo didn't have a choice, never really did. But now, now he's stuck in a loveless mating as a bargaining chip, waiting for his Alpha like a mistress rather than his husband. Warning: this book contains sensitive topics such as non-con/rape. If this is a trigger, do not read.
