How Does The Claiming Of Sleeping Beauty End?

“I want you, please...hot...help me...” I grabbed the Lycan King's shirt and pulled him towards me, kissing him passionately. He hesitated for a moment, then held me even closer… I never expected that after being betrayed, slandered, and drugged by my ex-Alpha husband and half-sister, the King would be the one to save me. What surprised me even more was that I ended up pregnant with his child after that wonderful night. When I discovered he was plotting to kill me for his fiancée, I ran away. “Come back to me, Eden,” his Lycan Aura made me shiver uncontrollably. “No!” I bit my lip, insisting, “If you don't love me, you should let me go.” His dangerously captivating eyes locked onto mine, and he said gently, "You broke my curse, how could I let you leave?" Curse? What curse? “That's my secret,” he held my waist, whispering softly in my ear, “and I know yours too, Love. Let me help you awaken.”

I died with my husband's betrayal on my lips and my unborn child in my womb. One moment I was Mia Weston — billionaire, wife, mother-to-be. The next, I was gone. Erased. Traded like a chess piece by the man who swore to love me forever. Then I woke up. Silk sheets. Marble walls. A maid calling me "My Lady." And a father I had never met looking me dead in the eyes saying — "You have been promised to King Zyren of the Draconis Throne. You leave at sunrise." I thought I was dreaming. I was wrong. King Zyren is not a man. He is ancient, ruthless, and devastatingly beautiful in the way that only dangerous things are. He doesn't smile. He doesn't explain. He simply looks at me like I am something he has been waiting for — and that look alone makes my whole body tremble. He calls me his traded bride. I call him my nightmare. But nightmares don't look at you like you are the only breathable air in a burning room. Nightmares don't press you against cold stone walls and whisper "You will learn your place, little human" with a voice so deep it rewrites your bones. And nightmares definitely don't make you forget — even for one dangerous, breathless second — the man who killed you. I was sold to settle a debt. He had waited centuries for exactly me. Neither of us was prepared for what came next.

“You’re trembling, little bride.” His voice was velvet and sin, wrapping around her throat like a leash. “Is it fear… or excitement?”He says in a husky voice, she could feel the burn of it on her skin. She should have run the moment she stepped inside his cathedral of darkness. Should have ignored the way his black wings unfolded behind him like a promise of ruin. Should have looked away from the monster with heaven in his eyes and hell on his lips. But when he touched her? When he whispered mine against her skin? She realized monsters were far more tempting than saints. Bound by an ancient vow she never agreed to, she’s dragged into a world of fallen angels, deadly desires, and dangerous obsession where one possessive creature is determined to claim her as his bride. He doesn’t want her heart. He wants her surrender. And the worst part? Every filthy promise dripping from his mouth makes her crave him more. Because behind those wicked smiles and sinful hands lies a man willing to burn heaven itself just to keep her. CLAIMING HIS BRIDE is a dark paranormal romance filled with obsessive love, possessive monsters, dangerous temptation, wicked tension, and a heroine who discovers that being claimed may be the most intoxicating sin of all.

This is a sexy and dark retelling of Beauty and the Beast where the beauty is a shy and sweet twenty-one year old girl and the beast is a twisted, psychotic, arrogant and cunning vampire. ****"C-can you p-please be gentle?" She meekly stuttered out between tears and hiccups. Her gaze still attached to the ceiling. Seconds passed. She could feel her cheeks heat up even after uttering that small request. What it implied. She'd never had sex before. She hadn't even seen a naked male before, in her entire life. She didn't know what to expect. But she definitely knew that it was going to hurt. The girls from her high-school had warned her of that. That it was going to hurt really bad at first. And that it wasn't actually that pleasant either. She startled at the sudden sound of his masculine chuckle. Her head instinctually turned to look at him before she could even try and stop herself. She watched him turn to lie on his side, his elbow digging into the soft pillow as he held his head in his hand. A sly smirk displaying on his beautifully-carved features. "And why would I do that?" He rose one brow. She immediately felt her cheeks burn even hotter. "B-because I asked you nicely," she bit her lip. Her hands were still tightly holding onto that duvet, keeping it at chin level. His gaze momentarily dropped to her mouth, taking notice of that small action. "A-and because I'm scared. I haven't done this before. Any of this," she truthfully admitted after a moment, her gaze lowering as she couldn't help but feel so embarrassed. About all of it. What she'd just told him, their current position. All of it. "You mean the sucking or the fucking part?"***

Hell bent on getting revenge on those who left him for dead, he acquires a pawn in the form of Josie Braille. She turns out to be too powerful and not all that useful.

Three lives on a collision course, whose resolution will reign supreme? What they do find in the end is that this was someone else's game entirely and they were all pawns from the very beginning. But when the chips are down and the fate of their existence and everyone they held dear on their shoulders, will Josie’s love win, or will the vampire king sacrifice them all to get his justice? *This book ends on a HFN

On my twenty-first birthday, I was supposed to die. The screech of tires, rain, the crushing impact—I braced for the end. Instead, I woke up in a fortress that didn't belong on this Earth. And standing over me was Caius—the most ruthless, beautiful monster I’d ever seen. He didn't save me out of mercy. He came to collect. Ten years ago, my grandfather made a deal to save my life. The price? My blood, and every beat of my heart from the moment I turned twenty-one. Now, I’m a prisoner in his penthouse, a human bride surrounded by a court of predators who view me as a feast. Caius calls me his "Consort." that I was curated, watchedfor a decade. He wants to drain my humanity, force the blood-bond, and turn me into the Queen of his kingdom. He thinks he owns me. He thinks I’m just another toy he can break and remake. But there’s a glitch in his plan. As the days bleed into nights, the hate that burns between us starts to twist into something dangerous, electric, and impossible to ignore. Every time he touches me, the air catches fire. The line between captor and lover is blurring until I can’t tell if I’m fighting to escape him or fighting to stay in his arms. Caius is determined to consume me, but he’s discovering a terrifying truth: you can’t possess a woman’s heart if you’re losing your own in the process. We’re both playing a deadly game, but we’ve stopped caring who wins. He wants to turn me into his Queen, but he might just lose his throne for me. And God help us both—I’m not sure I’m strong enough to stop him.
