Elara, a bright and ambitious student at Astraea University, has always been drawn to things that defy logic. When she enrolls in a Philosophy class taught by Lucien—a young, charismatic professor shrouded in mystery—she can’t shake the feeling that something about him is... off. He never seems to change, as if time itself refuses to touch him.

One rainy night, on her way home from the library, Elara stumbles upon something she was never meant to see—Lucien locked in a brutal fight against a group of dangerous creatures. In the chaos, she gets injured, and the scent of her blood draws predators lurking in the shadows. To save her, Lucien does the only thing he can: he binds her to him with a drop of his blood, tying their fates together in ways neither of them could have foreseen.

But that single act unravels a much bigger secret—Elara’s blood is not ordinary. It’s something vampires have sought for centuries, something powerful enough to shake the very foundations of their world. Now, her life will never be the same. Trapped between fear and uncertainty, she has no choice but to stay by Lucien’s side—the only one who can protect her from the darkness closing in.

the longer they are together, the more Elara realizes that Lucien is not just her protector—he is a man burdened by a past he cannot escape, a man fighting against feelings neither of them are ready to face. And as the truth about her blood slowly unravels, Elara is forced to make an impossible choice—become part of a world she was never meant to belong to, or defy fate, even if it means losing Lucien forever.

" Beware the darkness that soon will rise." Calla heard his voice again. The strange man.

" Daddy…. " Baby Calla called Xavier.

"The time will tell you and teach you everything about your future soon." She heard the strange man again.

"Daddy where are you?" Baby Calla again called Xavier.

...............
Calla was living a peaceful and happy live with her seven year old niece Sophie. Everything was perfect until one day Sophie vanished from the school yard and no one, not even the cops, could tell Calla what happened or even who took her.

Desperate for answers Calla gets a hint in a form of looking up someone from her past, a man that can tell the future. Together they will team up and save Sophie before it's too late.

It was supposed to be one night with a stranger, with absolutely no chance of ever seeing him again.

Until the next evening, when Aurelia walks into dinner and finds him sitting beside her stepmother… as her fiancé.

Kilian Moretti, her one-night mistake is her stepdad-to-be.

Aurelia has known loss all her life. Her mother died when she was just a child. Years later, her father’s sudden, suspicious death left her in the care of Ivy, his new wife who is a beautiful, polished woman hiding her cruelty behind a perfect smile. Aurelia has always suspected there’s more to Ivy than she lets on… and more to her father’s death than anyone dares to say.

Now, she and Kilian are playing a dangerous game in plain sight—touches under the table, smirks over wine glasses, conversations laced with innuendo only they understand. He’s older, powerful, and tied to a world of crime she’s sworn to avoid.

But when deadly secrets surface and the mafia closes in, the one man she can’t trust becomes the only man who can keep her alive.

We are their slaves. We are either their food (quite appetizing, I know), work as servants in their homes, or even worse...their pets. The latter is the most dreadful fate.

Nelly

It has been a decade since our world was forever changed, leaving behind the familiar and plunging us into a new reality. The world as we once knew it has vanished, just like in the movie Planet of the Apes.

I place the blame squarely on my parents, esteemed researchers who unknowingly led us into this abyss. Now, I find myself locked in a battle against the Dark Ones, fighting to protect myself and others from becoming mere possessions and sustenance for these malevolent beings.

Vincent is a vampire. Who would have thought that Dracula was real? However, these are not your typical vampires. No, we are their slaves. We are either their food (quite appetizing, I know), work as servants in their homes, or even worse...their pets. The latter is the most dreadful fate.


Vincent

My current pet is utterly useless; she does absolutely nothing for me. All she does is cry or whine. She's like all of the others. There's no fear or passion in her eyes because they are clouded by the desire for luxuries that being a pet can provide.

Alec, my newly appointed second in command, approaches me, “Hey, boss. I have news.” It better be fucking good.

"Have we located those rebels yet?" I inquire.

Alec chuckles, "It's actually a she. Her name is Nelly Gordon."

"Any connection to the docs? They're the ones who unleashed my darkness when they cured my cancer," I sneer. 

Alec nods, confirming, "Yeah, their daughter."

I chuckle, "Well, that should be entertaining. I want her alive." She used to be a teenager, but now she's a woman.

As I delve into her file, I discover that she is the doctor’s daughter. Now, I am considering the possibility of making her my pet instead. Her feisty nature presents an exciting challenge that I am eager to take on. I will take her and take immense pleasure in doing so.

My cock continues to throb at the sight of her. So I unzip my pants, grab my length in my hands, and start to jerk off to my new obsession. She will be mine.


In a post-apocalyptic world where humans tried to circumvent death but in doing so unleashed the darkness and with it the Dark Ones. Vampires rule the world. Humans are seen as playthings or food. Can the daughter of the scientist responsible for grating vampires the ultimate power thwart the Dark Ones, or will humanity become extinct if she falls for the enemy?

Princess Poppy never thought there would be an end to the war between her kingdom and that of the Dark Elves. That is until a proposition is made for her to marry the dark prince. Forced with the choice to save her people or herself, she picks the lives of the people in her home. The problem is Prince Erik isn't as accepting of the arranged marriage as she is. In fact, he wants to do everything he can to ruin the deal.

Will they put their differences aside to save their people?

Or will Poppy have to put Erik in his place by showing him what kind of woman she really is?

He pressed a finger against my lips.
"Hush."
His hair was still damp from his shower. Falling over his forehead like strands of gold.
He smelled amazing.
Clean skin, whiskey, and something that was uniquely him. Something musky with a hint of rain.
His lips trailed down my body, leaving kisses everywhere they touched. His tongue followed, dragging heat across my skin until he settled between my legs.
My breath caught.
He pressed soft kisses to my inner thighs.
For a moment he simply looked at me.
His gaze lingered over my body. His lips twitched at my shaved pussy.
His lips parted like he was about to say something.
Instead, he lowered his head.
The first touch of his tongue made my entire body jerk.
A helpless sound escaped me. His tongue thrust into me, hungry, needy.
My hips rolled against him automatically.
Like I had no control over my own body anymore.

One night changed everything.

My foolish, 'curious cat' bravado led me past the forbidden threshold of the abandoned manor, only to plunge me into a darkness far more ancient and potent than any ghost story. I didn't just see things; I felt the spectral caress of forgotten magic, the soul-shattering truth of a power that almost consumed me.

He is not just the master of these crumbling walls, but the lord of its shadows, and I, a mere trespasser, have unwittingly awakened his possessive hunger.

When dragons call, only the brave answer.

"Inside you will face the deadly minotaurs, armed with blades and protected by magic. "

"Danger number two is man-eating monsters. "

"Your final threat today is each other."

Icy dread crackles through my veins.

“Nearly one hundred have gathered today to test the fates and risk their lives, but only five can become Slayers.”

This year, it’s win or die.


Anara refuses to be defined by her past. As the queen’s favored maid, nobody expects her to enter the deadly Slayer Trials. Desperate for redemption, she’s determined to slay the ultimate dragon—the silver king himself.

Or die trying.

Except the Slayer Trials test Anara in ways she could never have imagined. Danger is as ravenous for death as the dragons themselves, enemies hide among friends and shadows. And an unexpected specter from her past appears, Prince Zaries. His hatred of her is understandable, her crime against him unforgivable. Her draw to him is a complication she doesn’t need.

Nor is the secret she harbors, an inexplicable affinity towards the very creatures she's sworn to destroy.

Ultimately, Anara's enigmatic connection to dragons will be her strength or her greatest vulnerability. It will challenge her resolve and reshape her destiny.

And the fate of Amaranthine and the unknown worlds beyond.

Nothing.
I glare at her, inches away from wrapping my fingers around her thin neck and wringing it till it snaps.
"You're… quite… fierce." I manage in a strained voice.
She struggles with a firm kick on my shin. My hold tightens so hard that she winces. "Don't bother," I advise. "You're never getting out of here."

"You really intrigue me, Nara," He flashes another smile, but it disappears just as fast.

A confession that makes my cheeks burn.

"I intrigue a lot of people." I try to control my breathing. "Most are always bad."

He shakes his head slowly, not wanting to pry his eyes away from my rising chest. "You intrigue me in a different sense."

"And what sense is that?"

"In the sense that I ask myself... why is it—" His neck bobs as he swallows hard, the tip of his finger now grazing the side of my uncovered thigh."—That I always find myself so drawn to you?"

What next? Can they be together?

The story is set in the royal kingdom of Valenroth, a palace where beauty hides danger and power decides everything. Behind its glittering halls lies a world of secrets, manipulation, and ruthless ambition, where trust is fragile and loyalty can cost a life.
Josselyn, the daughter of a condemned traitor, is summoned to the palace as the only one who can create the rare herbal remedy capable of saving the Queen. Gifted with her late mother’s extraordinary alchemical ability, she can craft potions with precision beyond ordinary healers—making her both indispensable and feared.
But Josselyn does not come to save the kingdom.
She comes for revenge.
Surrounded by five powerful men—Killian, the cold and unpredictable Crown Prince; Yorick, the observant healer who sees more than he reveals; Darius, the loyal knight bound by duty; and Howarth and Sebastian, two noble brothers whose charm conceals dangerous intentions—Josselyn is pulled into a deadly game of control and desire.
As political tension rises and hidden truths begin to unravel, alliances shift and emotions blur with manipulation. The deeper she steps into the palace, the more she realizes that revenge is not the only thing at stake.
Because in a place where power rules above all…
falling in love might be the most dangerous choice of all.

However, little did she realize that the depths of her suffering were yet to be fully experienced until she encountered an unimaginable ordeal at the tender age of ten. Now, faced with the daunting prospect of her own body succumbing to an unknown affliction, the question remains: will she find the strength to endure and overcome, or will she ultimately reunite with her beloved father in the realm beyond?

I stare at him, watching his chest expand.

How is it that someone so strong, so powerful, so dangerous to find become so small when faced with an adversary? The adversary being me.

I see him, knees on the cold tiled floor, his eyes fixated on me in equal parts disbelief. I disconnect my vision from his small form, looking briefly at what I'm wearing.

This morning when I woke up, the sun was shining, snow melting on my front lawn. My kids were sleeping, my husband gone, as usual, working, making money.

Everything was normal except when I woke up this morning, I received a message. This message contained a lot of things I've been waiting to hear but one part, in particular, stood out and made today different. This person on his knees in front of me was the big difference in my day. So when I woke up this morning and decided what I was going to wear I decided I would not wear black because black represented the sign of mourning. I wasn't going to wear white. After all, white represented a sign of new beginnings and not blue.

Blue, well blue was a sign of trust and green with a side of healing so when I woke up this morning I decided I would wear beige, it was an indifferent color something that matched any mood any desire any belief it doesn't necessarily represent anything but nor did it negate anything.

'You know what is so satisfying about killing you?"

'What?" He inquires with that tilt of his mouth and thin lips I have seen a time or two. Many women found this man handsome. sexy even. I was not different, but I knew more than many of them what made him, his colors, the layers that fell away leaving only the middle left and when you looked at it with naked eyes you'd see it was rotten.

I laugh.

'I became a player in this cat and rat game much later. I find it comical that I am the one who gets to catch you, considering there are many people who started in the beginning. What is even funnier is I am the one who would get to kill you."

'You didn't catch me Mrs. Catelli."He says my surname with a pinched face as though he can't bear the sound of it coming from his lips.

'Then what do you oppose I did?"

He smiles, but it is not a nice one. It is filled with the ugliness which has corrupted him over the years.
