Chapter 1
Sebastian Grey
I walked towards my granddad's study and I know it will be a bad news because nothing will come out good from that study room. I stood in front of the window and took a deep breath before opening the door entering his room.
"Pops, you called?" I asked as I closed the door. Pops was looking out the window enjoying the beautiful sunset. He gestured me to stand next to him so I walked towards him and stood beside the old man.
"How old are you again?" He asked as he turned to me.
"Turning 31 soon, why are you asking?"
"You know, I've been pretty patient waiting for you to bring me your girlfriend or maybe your future wife but.. you never introduced me to one." I let out a small chuckle.
"Do you have someone in mind? I'm actually waiting for you to introduce me to the woman of your choice." I know he has a couple of women inside his brilliant head. I'm not interested to find one myself because I know all of them are the same, they all want my money.
"Are you sure about that? I actually only have one in my mind." He said as he walked towards the sofa. I followed him and sat down facing him.
"Who?"
"We're actually going to have dinner together, she's coming in a few minutes." He said as he let out his evil smirk. I know that smirk won't have a good outcome for me.
"You can guarantee that I will like her?" I asked raising my right eyebrow.
"I think you will." He smiled at me and at the same time, there's a knock on the door. "Mr. Grey, you have guest waiting for you downstairs."
"She's here, let's go." He said as he got up from his seat. He walked out from his study first and I let out a long sigh before following him downstairs.
To be honest, I don't have any expectations about the woman that she's going to introduce to me. I don't really care who will end up being my wife because I think everything will be for publicity.
It's not that I don't believe in love, it's just I never experience it. I was too busy working and every woman that I've met, they all want what I have so I don't find it fun to deal with it in the future.
"Mr. Grey." I turned to where the voice came from and saw none other than Isabelle Orsino. Instantly I turned to my granddad because I'm convince that he's insane.
"Isabelle, it's been awhile since we've seen each other." Pops said as he gave her a brief hug. Isabelle then turned to me and she smiled.
"Sebastian." She greeted.
"Isabelle." I greeted her back even though I was still in shock. I really need to know why pops picked her and how on earth did she agree to this?
"Mr. Grey, it's time for you to eat your medicine." Henry, his butler, said.
"Right. I almost forgot about it. Give me 15 minutes, kids. You both have a short walk along the garden." Pops said and Henry led him to the living room. I turned to Isabelle and gestured her to follow me to the garden.
"I'm curious, what makes you agree to marry me?" I asked as we both walk side by side along the garden. Isabelle let out a small chuckle.
"What makes you think that I have a special reason to marry you?" That made me stop walking and turned to her. She gave me a small smile.
"You know that our families don't.. have the best relationship. You're the last person that I have in mind to be my wife." I said truthfully and she nodded.
"So you're going to back off?" She asked as she raised her right eyebrow. Before I could answer, she walks away.
"Isabelle, I think we should consider this marriage." I said and she ignored me by walking even further. I let out a long sigh and walked towards her.
"We'll end up divorcing anyway, why bother to marry each other in the first place?" I said and Isabelle stopped walking.
"We can sign a prenup if you're worried that I will take your money." She said in a cold tone and I was taken back for a second.
"Either we sign it or not, it won't work, Isabelle." I said and she turned to me.
"We can marry secretly and never tell anyone. How's that?"
"Why are you so eager? What's the point of marrying if we don't announce it to the world? You even offered to sign a prenup. What exactly do you have in mind?" I asked because this doesn't make any sense at all.
"We won't mind." I turned around to see pops standing with Billy Orsino, Isabelle's granddad.
"Pops, why are you agreeing to this? Aren't you both rivals?"
"I've always like you, Sebastian." Billy Orsino said as he walked towards me.
"Should we talk about this over dinner?" He asked and with that Isabelle walked back to the house. Billy patted my shoulder and followed Isabelle inside.
"Let's have dinner together." Pops said and I nodded. Pops when inside first and I followed him. Once we're inside, he led Billy and Isabelle to the dining room where there's already food on the table. Pops gestured me to sit beside him and Billy and Isabelle sat across me.
"Let's eat." Pops said and I ate my dinner in silent. Only pops and Billy are the ones who kept talking with each other.
After the maids clean the table, pops asked them to close the door for more privacy. Pops turned to me and he smiled.
"What do you think of your future bride?" He asked and I looked at her.
"I have no objection." I said and Isabelle looked straight at me.
"How about you Belle?" Billy asked her granddaughter.
"I have no objection as well."

"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

HIS REJECTED SECOND CHANCE MATE
"What the f*ck, Zara!" Levi bumped into me and growled behind me.
"Sorry," I mumbled, wide-eyed.
"Is that?" Levi mind-linked, and I nodded my head.
"Zara," my father uttered. "I understand that you are familiar with Alpha Noah."
I slowly nodded my head.
"Great," my father said. "Alpha Noah has also informed me that you are his fated mate."
I gave a nod in response.
"Superb, Alpha Noah has requested your hand."
"Is that so?" I found my voice.
Both my father and Alpha Noah nodded.
"Interesting," I said. "Were you told by Alpha Noah that he rejected me more than a year ago?"

Lita's Love for the Alpha
"WHO did that to her?!" Andres asked again, still staring at the girl.
Her injuries were darkening with the passing of each minute.
Her skin even seemed paler in comparison to the deep browns and purples.
"I called the doctor over. You think it's internal bleeding?"
Stace addressed Alex but looked back to Lita, "She was fine, I mean flustered and bruised but fine, ya know. And then boom, she was passing out. Nothing we did would wake her up..."
"WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHO DID THIS TO HER?!"
Cole's eyes shifted deep red, "It's not your fucking concern! Is she YOUR mate now?!"
"See that's what I mean, if she'd had THAT man protecting her, maybe this wouldn't have happened," Stace yelled, tossing her arms into the air.
"Stacey Ramos, you will address your Alpha with his due respect, are we clear?"
Alex growled, icy blue eyes glaring at her.
She nodded quietly.
Andres also lowered his head slightly, showing submission, "Of course she's not my mate Alpha, however..."
"However, what, Delta?!"
"At the moment, you haven't rejected her. That would make her our Luna..."
After her brother's sudden death, Lita picks up her life and moves to Stanford, CA, the last place he lived.

The Alpha King's Human Mate
“I have waited nine years for you. That’s nearly a decade since I’ve felt this emptiness inside me. Part of me began to wonder if you didn’t exist or you’d already died. And then I found you, right inside my own home.”
He used one of his hands to stroke my cheek and tingles erupted everywhere.

Strings of Fate
Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm.
I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species.
I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate.
Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother.
“What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it.
“Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain.
