​Liam grabbed my chin, forcing me to look into his piercing green eyes.“Why do you smell like my brother, Scarlett?” he demanded.​My heart pounded against my ribs, but I stayed silent. My refusal to speak only fueled his anger.“I am your mate,” he growled, his grip tightening.​What he didn’t know was that he wasn’t the only one. I was mated to all three brothers—and none of them knew they were sharing me.​Suddenly, a loud knock echoed through the room.“Liam? Are you in there?”​It was Leo.​Panic flashed across Liam’s face. He looked at the door, then back at me. He couldn't let his brother see me like this—half-naked and pressed against the wall. He grabbed my arm and shoved me into the bathroom. Before I could say a word, he turned the shower on full blast to drown out any sound I might make.BLURBI am fated to three men who want me dead.​To the pack, I am the Rogue’s daughter. To Liam, Leon, and Leo, I am a mistake that should never have existed. The day I discovered I was the fated mate of all three brothers, I realized it wasn’t a blessing. It was a death sentence.​They hate me. They believe my parents betrayed the pack and killed their mother, our Luna, and the shame of being tied to me burns their pride. None of them know the others share the same bond, and each one secretly plans to reject me and erase the connection forever.​So I begged for time. Three months to strengthen my wolf so I can survive the pain of a triple rejection without dying. They agreed.​But as the days pass, the hatred begins to warp into something darker—and far more possessive.“I was the first to kiss her,” Liam brags.“I took her virginity,” Leo yells out loudly.“She will love me first,” Leon responds angrily.​I rolls her eyes and stomps my foot, my heart breaking even as my blood thrums with their possession. “I hate you! All of you!!”​The secret is finally out. All three brothers know I belong to them. But instead of rejecting me and ending my misery... they refuse to share me.​How do I survive three Alphas who would rather tear the pack apart than let another brother touch what is theirs? Especially when a dark prophecy is prophesied against the bond.​Note: This is Book Two of Fated to Not Just One but Three. It can be read as a standalone, as it follows the story of their sons.​PS: Two chapters are updated daily.

What is martial arts?Martial Arts has nothing to do with musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, treasures or secret manuals, nor is there so much talk about being the best in the world. Martial Arts is a technique, a method that gives the weak a chance to draw their blades against the strong.What is chivalry (xiá)?Chivalry is not about romantic affairs, traditional culture, or being gentle, respectful, frugal, and compliant. Chivalry is violence, it's the bayonet forged by those driven to Mount Liang to use against tyrants.Cao Mo pledged with a dagger, (Returning to) Lu to invade. Zhuan Zhu entered with grilled meat, (Pacifying) Wu to usurp the throne. Brother Zhang cried in the market, avenging his lord by defiling a lavatory. Suicide by cutting one's own throat to seek justice, acting while concealing his sleeve. The tyrant of Qin seized souls, the coward gained courage.This is a martial artist's story.In the 1930s, a group of like-minded young people came together, striving to change the world.Then, two hundred years later, in a garbage landfill, Xiang Shan, the Progenitor of Cyber Martial Arts who had once rebooted heaven and earth, woke up reciting the name of his enemy, having lost all his memories.“Perhaps it's because I lost back then that the world has become what it is...”“So this time, I won't be defeated again!”This is the story of a person changing the world once more!
