Cheska was deeply hurt by what she once thought was her soul mate so when she came of age and discovered another part of her family\'s supernatural secret, she was bound and determined to never find her "mate" with almost thesame ferocity that she had sworn off men and marriage. That is, until visiting her best friend\'s dive resort in the other side of the world when she gave in to temptation. Just once, what could it hurt, right ? She had accidentally bumped into him and he caught when she lost her balance. Instantly, she was overwhelmed with the most intoxicating scent of eucalyptus and lemongrass. She couldn\'t help but smile as she looked up to his mesmerizing emerald eyes. Wyatt and his brother Will found themselves at a local club while visiting their distant cousins in the Philippines. Wendy, their younger sister, had befriended the daughter of a local hotel magnate during her university days, now she is set to be a bridesmaid for her wedding. Being fellow supernaturals cemented the bond between the girls and they had been fast friends. Shortly after they both finished school, Eliza found her mate and decided to settle down in the islands. Not wanting to travel alone, Wendy had roped both her brother\'s to come along with the promise of new adventures. Bohol was a well known diving spot and also teeming with supernaturals with their place in society. Surveying the crowd, the brothers were amazed that the few humans there were, they were all involved in their world in some way shape or form. There were all manners of weres, sirens, fae and even a couple of dragons. Will heard Wyatt\'s breath catch and he followed his gaze to a group of girls with Wendy and Eliza in a corner. They were obviously tipsy judging by how rowdy they were being. In the gaggle of mostly brunettes, a head of golden blonde curls stuck out like a sore thumb. She couldn\'t be more than 20 and was quickly confirmed as the youngest when other girls called her "bunso", an endearment used for the youngest. She had on a loose minecraft t-shirt and tiny little cargo shorts. Another oddity since the rest were in mini dresses and skirts. Wyatt couldn\'t take his eyes off of her and as she started walking towards the bar seeming to get herself a drink, he couldn\'t help but try to get her attention. He quickly motioned to the bartender for a new drink of his own to have an excuse to strike up a conversation. He had underestimated her speed because he almost collided with her. She lost her balance but with his quick reflexes, he caught and steadied her on her feet. That\'s when it hit him, the scent of mint and lavender with a hint of some sort of exotic flower that made his manhood twitch. He saw her slight grin and as she mouthed "thank you". As she slowly looked up while trying to extricate from him, he felt his breath catch for the second time that night as he found himself staring at her impossibly golden blue eyes. She turned to grab her drinks from the bar and walked back to her girls. He didn\'t quite understand what was going on since he was certain they had made a connection there. He tried to catch his sister\'s eye for a little assist and she gave him a sly smirk and beckoned him over. Wendy lost no time in introducing both her brothers to the ladies, there was Ava, Dierdre, Siobhan, Penny, Lana, Eliza of course and his goddess, Jess. The few drinks he had was just enough liquid courage to give him a push to sit beside Jess and strike up a conversation. The girls were all teasing as he saw Jess reddening like a tomato. Eliza, the bride to be, was unusually giddy. Apparently Jess was the only "single" lady of the bunch and with that, the group almost all but pushed them both for a "walk" on the moonlit beach. One thing led to another and before he knew it, he found himself with Jess in a room desperately satisfying their lust. He was not prepared to find out that he was her first man , but it had made him unreasonably happy. They did it so many times that night and in a heated moment of passion, they marked each other. Wyatt had woken up to an empty bed, no sign of Jess or even a note. He was not alarmed as he assumed that they will see each other shortly during the wedding ceremony. He wasn\'t prepared for the confused looks he got from Wendy and Eliza. They didn\'t have a "Jess" in their group last night. The one they called "bunso" is Francesca, she was called back home for some family emergency and she was most definitely not golden blonde. He was so sure he had found his mate and had tried every effort to find her in the last 5 years with no luck. Just when he thought that night was all his imagination, he found her again in the most unexpected place.

Henrietta comes from a very outgoing family of performers. She's no different. While her family is by no means loose or promiscuous, they not a prude bunch either. . Working as a voice actress for a prestigious audio book company, she was offered a one time lucrative gig to read an erotic novel. She took on the challenge with much teasing from her siblings.

Nina woke up in the middle of beautiful meadow, if she didn't know any better, she would think she was watching some 3D movie in a high tech movie theater. Except the excruciating pain on her side firmly made sure to let her know this was reality. For the last few months, Jake has been plagued by vivid dreams and gruesome nightmares. Meri, his beautiful love, was always there. His other half, his soul mate, his reason for living. During these times, he felt happy and impossibly miserable at thesame time, not wishing for their time to end when he opens his eyes. At times, he relives Meri's death over and over again, felt her warm blood seep into him while he held her and saw the light in her eyes slowly dim. Uncontrollable rage and blood lust woke him up in cold sweat wanting him to reach out and grab a very stiff drink. As if fate wasn't messing with him enough, he has not met Meri during the time he was awake. He had nothing else to go by except for her first name and her face. Despite knowing her body intimately, he couldn't very well mention the huge beautiful rising dragon birthmark on her left side with its head resting on the side of her delicate breast or the overpowering scent of ylang-ylang and white ginger she exudes mysteriously. He was jolted from his reverie by an urgent call from his best friend Kane. They needed an assist with a patient in a long term coma. While not awake, she seemed to be in distress somehow. He bolted out of his office chair and practically ran to the other end of the hospital. Despite his own issues, he was still one of the best neurosurgeons around. Kane is not one to panic easily but the tone in his voice gave Jake a huge cause for concern . He got into the room in record time as a nurse handed him a chart to catch him up. Patient Nina Fabian, 25, no known relatives, blood type AB and was in a coma in the last 4 months. He lifted his eyes to look at Nina on the bed and he felt his heart stop. Laying there was his beautiful Meri hooked up to all sorts of wires. While she looked peacefully asleep, the machines argued otherwise. What is happening ? and who is Nina Fabian ? Why does she look like the spitting image of Meri, down to the tiniest details ? Before he could stop himself, he lifted her hospital gown lightly and saw the beautiful dragon birthmark. Now what... ?

Ancia is an avid gamer and travel writer. She is the youngest in the family and was doted upon the most. While her older siblings made their way in life with everyday normal careers that kept them in place, she followed her dreams, quite in the literal sense. By day, she works as a popular freelance travel writer and by night, she was the feared Meister, one of the best war game strategists. Through her travels, she has befriended some odd fellows, supernaturals even. One of her closest friends Aria, is a werewolf. They bonded together over their love of trying out new food and their rebellious streak. Aria is also the youngest child in her family with 4 overprotective older brothers, one of which is the current Alpha of their pack in North Dakota. The two girls met each other in Thailand. Ancia was on a layover on her way to Munich while Aria was on her way home from a temple and food tour. Ancia was having a pensive moment when she felt very feminine arms snake around her waist. In a soft voice, she heard a cute voice whispered "please help me", before it said loudly for all to hear "There you are babe !" Quickly catching on, Ancia turned to hug the girl back and landed a quick peck on the other girl's forehead. "Ma Cherie ! " she cooed "I told you I'll be waiting here for you.. " As she gave this girl her most besotted grin, she noticed this girl had the bluest eyes she's ever seen. If she was ever into women, this girl would be her type, very much so. The men who were obviously following her and trying to rudely hit on her looked like they've been doused with ice water. It was obvious they thought she was easy prey with her petite figure and innocent look but after she met up with her "husband" who just happened to look like Lara Croft came to life, they men decided to switch to another target. After the men were safely far enough out of ear shot, Aria gave her savior a sheepish grin after meeting a questioning gaze from her piercing amber eyes. After giving her the a quick summary of her situation, both girls giggled uncontrollably like teenage school girls and the rest, as they say was history. Noah had just assumed the Alpha role from his dad and was dealing with the increasing number of rogue attacks when more pack politics came up that he honestly didn't feel like dealing with. Alliances weren't the issue, rather, it was the ridiculous proposals that came with it. Other Alphas trying to push their daughters to him to become his Luna. His pack, while not very big in number, had a great reputation when it comes to their warriors and their wallets. They started their training young and self defense was mandatory for both girls and boys. Their she-wolves made the very best assassins while it was almost impossible to beat even their average warrior on a one on one duel. His four younger siblings were killing machines and a force to be reckoned with on their own but despite his baby sister being their best assassin, he was always worried about her. Being an architect, his sister had a lot of human friends and often times go off on an adventure on her own. It wasn't such a huge issue until the current situation which had him on edge. He needed everyone to be safe but the only way he could get his sister Aria to stay home for a while would be to "ask" for her help because he needed "all hands on deck". After being apprised of the situation, Aria asked if she could invite a good friend of hers, a master tactician, who should help get their war plans sorted out with fresh eyes and new ideas. He didn't like having an outsider take part in his packs' inner workings but he knew his sister was right. The more brains working on it, the better. The day Meister arrived was a day he wasn't about to forget. His baby sister Aria flying through the door throwing herself into the arms of probably the most gorgeous woman Noah had ever laid eyes on. Her silky midnight black hair fell in soft curls all the way down past her tiny waist. The white aviator shirt hugged her mounds for dear life while her cargo pants showed off her perfectly shaped behind. She had on black loafers but even that looked seductive on her. Noah had not expected Meister to be a woman, nor did he expect his sister to have what looked like a torrid love affair with her, nor for Meister to be human and have the most scintillating scent and to top it all off, his wolf started screaming "MATE" !

Amelia decided to go on a soul searching solo hike across the North American wilderness for a different adventure. Being adopted and an orphan with mysterious roots, she had hoped to find a clue or at least make peace with whatever she was. She had a peculiar affinity with animals and plants thrive in the most impossible conditions under her care. Her adopted mother often called her "little elf" affectionately and took it all in stride. Tarquin and Theo were sent to investigate a border breach. Puzzled as the scent was unfamiliar and did not quite belong to any creature they know. There were current hostilities in their world so everyone was on edge. They had begun to doubt their abilities as trackers when they heard the unmistakable voice of a woman singing. Her voice melodious and haunting, filled with longing and love. Her scent was everywhere but they can't seem to find her until they looked up. Amelia was enjoying the soft afternoon breeze and belting out one of her favorite songs when movement on the ground caught her attention. Curious, she made her way down slowly for a closer look. Lucas just got back to the pack and already his parents were badgering him about starting a family. It wasn't that he isn't interested, he was just far too busy. The ones that approached him made him cringe in distaste. They all are very blatant about their shallow desires. When the pack's best trackers informed them of finally catching the culprit of the border breach, Lucas volunteered to head out with his own team. Amelia had never known fear of animals, let alone wolves. She had grown up in a Wolfdog Rescue and Wolf Sanctuary. Besides, the two wolves she'd spotted had to be the handsomest wolves she'd ever seen. As she landed lightly, she was alarmed to hear paws on the ground. About 7 or 8 and their aggression is palpable in the air. As she saw them close in, instinct had taken over and she yelled in her most commanding voice. "HEEL ! " Lucas and his men did not expect the scene that met them. A wisp of a girl just jumped down from a tall tree. Her thick chestnut brown hair falling dramatically down to her waist. She looked to be all of 14 until she turned around and revealed the figure of a woman with all the curves in the right places. Their eyes met briefly and then her scent hit him hard. Hazelnut coffee and cinnamon rolls, his secret addiction. Before any of the men registered what was happening, he heard her belt out a command that made them all stop dead in their tracks and instantly shift to human form. Amelia saw the most beautiful Wolf leading a group heading her way. She scarcely had time to appreciate his beauty as fear took over and she instinctively issued a command. She saw them all simultaneously drop in a submissive manner and no sooner had they done so when there were naked, muscled men sitting in their place, confusion on their faces. Against her will, she felt herself slack and black out. As if a spell was broken, the men were able to move again. The trackers Tarquin and Theo made quick work of gathering what they surmised as the rest of her belongings and they set off back to the pack house, the girl carried gently by their future Alpha, Lucas.

Clara applied for a cook position in a remote commune to do some soul searching and hide away from crazy relatives... In a weird twist of fate, she reconnects with a college buddy who just happens to have a drop dead gorgeous brother. The perfect 10 of face, bod and brains. Except Clara seems immune to his charms and would just rather enjoy the "scenery"

Ekaterina has always had rather eccentric taste among her peers. While other girls were obsessed with boys, she was obsessed with plants. While teens her age spend their allowance on clothes, make-up and accessories, she spends the bulk of hers on her pet husky, Ares. His toys, clothes, treats and little trips for just them both. He had been a Christmas present from her Louise when she was 8. She had taken a fancy to wolves after they had visited St. Henry's Wolf Sanctuary. She begged and pleaded to adopt one but her parents drew the line. It was love at first sight for the pup and girl. They were inseparable. He never slept in a dog bed as she always snuggled with him every night. When she wasn't in school, they were together, whether swimming, hiking, running and sometimes shopping, upon which she dressed him as a service dog or service animal. When Ares passed shortly before her 18th birthday, she was devastated and beyond inconsolable. She had loved him so deeply beyond that of a simple pet and master. He was her partner in crime, her confidant, her most precious best friend. Her family and friends did their utmost to console her to no avail. Even to the point of bringing her pups to "replace" him. She refused every single one. Nice at first until she became increasingly annoyed. As with any intellectual, Ekaterina skipped a few years in school. Instead of taking 9 years to become a full fledged veterinarian, it only took her 5, graduating top of her class with a double major in Botany. Unsual combination to say the least but that was what made her happy. As she slipped into depression over the loss of her beloved Ares, Grandma Louise took her out for some girl time at St. Henry's Wolf Sanctuary. This place was the start of her obsession after all. There was a vicious war for territory in the Supernatural realm between the wolf clans. The long established and traditional families fighting against rogues, traffickers and various scum of the underworld. Some had grown too greedy and wreak all sorts of chaos in the human realm while the other side wished for nothing but peace and took it upon themselves to protect the weaker species. Alpha Lucas and Alpha Lara are the twin Alphas of Silversable Pack, the strongest warrior packs in all of the supernatural realm. Their castle was impregnable until they were betrayed by what they thought was a loyal family member. Alpha Lara, fearing for the safety of the youngest pups, called upon her friends for help. The witches had transformed them into the most ordinary and average looking pups and smuggled them into the human realm. They had run for hours and the little ones were exhausted. Lara herself was bruised and battered from battle but was running on sheer will and adrenaline. Her own pup, the future heir had escaped with her and she was determined to keep him and the others survive Ekaterina was humming a catchy tune on her way to volunteer at St. Henry's. She had recently bought a little cottage close by to be able to be there as much as she could. Out of nowhere, the most beautiful Wolf she has ever seen was on the tiny country road in front of her and as she slammed on the brakes of her light pink Escalade, she hoped and prayed she did not hurt the majestic creature. Lucas was beside himself when all communication with his sister was lost. Her mate, his male best friend is critically injured and fighting for his life and now his sister and his young nephew . Because of the betrayal, he dared not trust a lot of people. Their side might have won for now, but the little peace they enjoyed was very fragile. Trusting his parents with the pack, he set out for the human realm. His sister's best friend Brenna, a light witch, helped him to secretly escape to the other realm. As soon as his paws touched the mossy forest floor, he caught the scent of the most overpowering lavender with a hint of something sweet. Inexplicably he followed his nose and found himself gawking at a breathtakingly gorgeous creature he had ever laid eyes on. Beside her was Lara in her Wolf form. weak but obviously on the mend. A short distance from her was the happy yips and playful little howls of a bunch of pups, his nephew, the tiniest of the bunch, smack center and he had on what could only be a shirt that said "Chief Troublemaker". His head swiveled to look at his sister as the girl was arranging wild flowers upon the giant wolf's head . It took him a while to process what was happening. His usual serious and reserved sister had on what looked to be a fluffy, bright purple tu tu and ribbons on her tail. His gaze focused on the human, incredulous that she was still alive and breathing after dressing up his sister in such a ridiculous and humiliating garb. He watched as she leaned in and rubbed her small human nose on Lara's massive snout. His jealousy raged and his whole being screamed "MATE ! MINE! " He found his other half and she was a tiny human !
