When graduate student Nina locked eyes with a stranger in a Ljubljana café, she thought it was chance.
It wasn’t.
Adrian had been watching her for months—first as a shadow, then as a savior, and finally as the man sent to decide whether she lived or disappeared.
He was supposed to erase her.
Instead, he fell in love.
Now they’re bound by a network built on secrets, code, and blood. From the streets of Vienna to the coast of Trieste, every step drags them deeper into a system that turns people into assets and love into a liability.
Nina was never meant to know what she was—a name hidden in an algorithm, a dormant asset waiting to be activated. Adrian was never meant to defy his orders. Together, they’ve broken the rules of a world that doesn’t forgive mistakes.
As enemies close in, and truth unravels faster than they can run, Nina must face the hardest question of all:
Can you love the man who was sent to destroy you—
or will the past he tried to bury take them both down?
A dark romance of obsession, betrayal, and the dangerous kind of love that rewrites every rule.

"Oops, I did it again. I played with your heart, got lost in the game.”

I close my eyes; I am enjoying the sun on my face and the wind in my hair.
The sound of my voice echoing across the fields. Then I open my eyes; I am scared out of my mind by someone standing over me.

"Where did you come from?! You should not creep up on people!"

"I can ask you the same thing, what the hell are you doing out here?" His eyes run over my body, and I can see amusement build in his smile. "I never thought I would see the day that I find a clearly lost woman in a wedding dress in the back seat of a car singing to Britney Spears."

Tyler Moore is the Sheriff of a small town far out from the city. With a body that is carved to perfection, this soft-spoken man should not be underestimated. Even though he is elegant and yet powerful, there is far more than lives underneath the façade that he brings.

Jenna Davis, a girl that decides to leave her husband at the altar, runs away to the small little town where Tyler lives. She gets stuck on the side of the road in nothing but an empty tank, a wedding dress, and singing to Britney Spears.

Tyler is the one that finds the poor damsel on the side of the road. Even though he finds her situation amusing, he is immediately captivated by her. She pushes him to his limits and brings the danger that he craves, that he desires.

The two soon send off on a whirlwind relationship, but there is one thing that Tyler refuses to give…his heart.

Will Jenna ultimately win his heart?

While I bled to death locked in a storage room, my fiancé Adrian was holding my sister's hand, comforting her.

He hung up on my final call for help, leaving only a voicemail: "If anything happens to Lena, the engagement is off."

My sister once said her birthday wish had always been for me to disappear.

That night, her wish came true early.

But my soul never left.

I watched everyone gather around her, singing happy birthday.

As she blew out the candles, I whispered in her ear:

"Enjoy it while it lasts. This will be your last birthday."

I died the night I refused to postpone the engagement party.

The morning after my death, my parents were still having breakfast with my sister Blair, excitedly planning her award ceremony.

Before I died, the only person who answered my desperate call was my mother. I was being chased by kidnappers at the time, and I begged her to save me, telling her I was dying. But she said, "Stop being so dramatic! You're just trying to get our attention. If you want to die so badly, then go ahead and die."

That was my last call for help before the line went dead, and then I was struck by a car.

I lay on that dark road, bleeding profusely. They thought I was just sulking, hiding away to get attention. They thought if they ignored me, I would come back and apologize to them.

They didn't know I was already dead.

I’LL LOCK HER IN A GILDED CAGE AND THROW AWAY THE KEY.

The night we met, she thought she was tasting freedom.
I devoured her once and left before I even knew her name.

Four months later, Bratva business leads me to the house of my enemy with one objective:
Burn it down and kill everyone inside.

That’s exactly what I plan to do…
Until I find her cowering before me.
The innocent girl from the club.
My beautiful caged bird.

I’m not here to save her—I’m here to ruin her.
But something stops me in my tracks.
Something I never expected.

Did she say that’s my baby in her womb?

My brother chose my enemy, and the man I loved joined forces with her to sell me into a club.
Pregnancy, miscarriage, imprisonment, beatings—every cry for help I made was dismissed as "just an act."
It wasn't until I was truly dead that they lost their minds, dropping to their knees at my grave and sobbing that they were sorry.
But by then, I could no longer hear them.

My family drugged me and forced me to serve a powerful figure. After a one-night stand with him, I found out I was pregnant with his child.
My family then locked me up and abused me, forcing me to give birth to the child. It broke my heart; their cruelty showed they never truly considered me family.
I decided to fight back. I would escape, sever ties with them, and take control of my own destiny!

"Sign it or go to jail."
"I'm done with this marriage. I already got what I wanted, so you're no longer needed."
Dale Beldson said it calmly, without guilt, as if ending our marriage meant nothing.
In that moment, Chloe Dave finally understood the truth. To him, she had never been important.
With tears in her eyes, she signed the divorce papers and walked away from the life she once fought so hard to keep.
She left his house, his family, and the illusion of love behind.
But she made herself a promise. One day, she would come back stronger. She would become someone no one could ignore again.
Chloe once believed marrying Dale was the happiest moment of her life. He was powerful, admired, and the man she had loved for years.
That belief did not last.
Her marriage turned cold, her husband distant, and his family never accepted her. Still, she held on, hoping there was at least a small place for her in his heart.
Everything fell apart when she was framed by Nora, his closest friend. She was accused of crimes she did not commit, yet Dale chose to believe another woman over his own wife.
That was when Chloe stopped hoping.
When she returns, she will not be the same woman he cast aside.
And this time, she will be the one walking away while he watches.

She came at midnight… and destroyed everything.
Sienna Blackwood had it all — a powerful empire, a loving husband, and the control she fought so hard to earn. Until she arrived. A fragile girl with haunted eyes and a story that didn’t quite add up.
Sienna welcomed her in. Protected her. Trusted her.
But trust can be fatal.
When secrets unravel and loyalties twist, Sienna finds herself broken, betrayed, and stripped of everything she built. As her world crumbles, a darker truth emerges — Midnight marked the beginning of the end.

My husband and parents wanted me dead. All because my sister was "dying."

They shoved a divorce agreement and an experimental surgery consent form at me.

I was supposed to be her donor.

But they didn't know I was the one actually dying.

Three days ago, they told me I had terminal bone cancer.

One month to live.

So when they threatened me into some back-alley surgery, I smiled.

I was already dying anyway.

At fifteen, I was Raven's deadliest weapon—until the night I pointed a gun at Luca Moretti's head. He should have killed me. Instead, he offered me something I'd never had: a normal life.

But when my past sends assassins to my prep school and the mafia heir watches me with eyes that see too much, I'm caught between two worlds. Luca says he's my uncle. Luca says he'll protect me.

I was a scholarship student with thirty extra pounds. Del Ashford had two hundred thousand followers and her family's supplement brand on every wall of the athletic center. First week of school, she decided we were going to be best friends.
She said she wanted to help me get in shape. What that actually looked like: I carried her product shipments up three flights of stairs, drafted her emails, and picked up her lunch from the place across campus that didn't deliver.
My roommates started calling me her errand girl behind my back. I let them.
She also introduced me to Beckett Hale. After that, things went the way they went.
She knocked my protein shake over and said I'd burned her. She planted her limited-edition earphones in my bag and told everyone I'd stolen them. The school opened a conduct review. My roommates stopped talking to me.

Beckett said I was the kind of girl who got a little attention and started thinking she deserved more of it.
I couldn't prove any of it. By spring, I was gone.
Some people just aren't built for this, Wren. You know that, right?
Del hadn't even been looking at me when she said it.
Then I opened my eyes and I was back at the party. The night she introduced me to Beckett.

"My gosh, what an ass you have there," he remarked, and then he dragged my pants down. I just hid my face in embarrassment.
I could feel his palms roaming over my ass, and suddenly he tightly spread them open.

"Hmmm! Virgin?" he asked. I nodded.

For five years of secret marriage to Sebastian Hawthorne—one of New York's most powerful attorneys—he still refused to let our son Quinn call him "Daddy" in public.
At the firm, I was his on-call senior associate, the invisible workhorse cleaning up his messes and handling his impossible cases. At home, I was the single mother who stopped waiting up for a husband who never came home for dinner.
Everyone knew the new intern, Delilah Vance, was his favorite—a federal judge's daughter, his hand-picked "rising star."
I used to believe that if I worked hard enough, if Quinn behaved perfectly, the heart beneath all that arrogance would eventually soften.
Until that rainy night when he threw his wife of five years and their son out of their own home to comfort Delilah over some fabricated stalker scare.
And while Quinn collapsed in my arms, gasping through a severe allergic reaction, Sebastian was raising champagne with that woman at an impossible-to-book French restaurant, celebrating her win in a pointless mock trial.

Blake's keeping me locked up in a villa outside the city, with a dozen bodyguards watching me around the clock. They won't let me step foot outside my room.

He once promised Vanessa, the woman he never got over, that he'd give her company shares and his estate. Now she's back after her divorce, pregnant, crying to Blake that I threatened her, told her to give up what he promised, and that I wanted to hurt her and her baby.

Blake believed her.

He's convinced I'm evil and gold-digging. He locked me up here while he stays at the hospital, never leaving Vanessa's side.

I'm going into sudden labor, crying and begging him to let me go to a hospital. I swear I never wanted those things, never hurt her.

Blake just sneers. "You're such a liar. I don't believe a single word from someone as vicious as you. After Vanessa delivers, I'll get you a doctor. Stop trying to fool me."

But when he finally sees my body, he completely falls apart.

I spent ten years following Ashton around like it was my job. He said jump, I jumped. He said he was hungry, I went and made him a sandwich. His homework, his fights, his messes — I handled all of it. I thought that's what being close to someone meant.
Then at the fall pep rally, in front of two thousand people, he strapped me to a platform, blasted me with paint, and let his girlfriend laugh at me through a megaphone.
I was the punchline. I threw up on camera. The video went viral before I even hit the ground.
So I did the one thing nobody expected — I vanished. New school, new city, new number. Every trace of him, gone.
I thought that was the end of it.
But Ashton doesn't let go of what he thinks is his. And what he's willing to do to drag me back? I wasn't even close to ready for that.

As a regular student, I never expected to fit into the world of trust fund kids. But this real estate heiress reached out to me, said she'd show me how the other half lives, even promised to introduce me to New England's most powerful heir.

I thought she'd be my friend. Thought she actually cared. I even fell for him.

Until she framed me for stealing confidential school files. Until he said, "Just a scholarship kid. No one's gonna miss her." That's when I understood. I was never more than their toy.

They tore up my textbooks, stuffed dead rats in my locker, spent six months tormenting me online and off. My mother couldn't take the vicious comments. Her heart gave out. And me? After I completely broke down, they drove me to the coastal cliffs.

Ice-cold water flooded my nose and mouth. Suffocation dragged me down into despair. I hate myself for being weak. Hate them for their arrogance. Hate this rotten system that treats people like me as disposable.

But when I opened my eyes again, I was back. Back to the night she pushed me toward him.

This time, I won't be fooled.

"This is forbidden," Grayson says softly, stepping back. "You're a princess and I'm a knight," he continues, voice strained with a hint of regret.

"Before that...you were once my best friend and first love," I whisper, stepping closer. I reached out gently, my hands trembling as I lift his face to meet my gaze.

"It's all in the past," His jaw tightens, eyes shutting briefly, then slowly opening to reveal a flicker of pain buried beneath his composure.

"Is it?" I press softly, leaning in closer.

He says nothing for a long moment, then releases a deep shaky breath. "You're one person I desire the most, yet it's forbidden." He admits.

I stroke his jawline softly, my thumbs softly brushing his cheeks. "I still don't care. I want you regardless of what anyone says."

My knees wobbled, panic consuming every inch of me as I forced myself to meet his gaze.
“What the hell do you want from me?”

He leaned closer, his breath grazing my ear.
“Your touch…. It stole my power. And I want you to undo whatever you did to me. Right here…right now!”

I flinched. “How…. how am I supposed to do that?” My voice cracked, fragile and trembling.

His lips curled into a snarl. I watched him stride back to the bed until he was seated. He fell back slightly, fingers dug into the sheets while he threw his legs apart like he was in a goddamn cinema.

“I want you to pull out my cock… stroke me like you did the first time. Until my power is back.”

She calls him a murderer

Years later, those children returned as witnesses against her. Sloane Vale smiled for the cameras while calling Caroline a monster.

The weak slave they discarded will return as an empress of starlight and shadow.

I'm two months pregnant with Tristan's baby when Brielle, the woman he'd do anything for, shoves me down the stairs.

She calls it an accident. I lose the baby.

I beg my husband to do something about it. Instead, he shields her and turns it around on me.

"Brielle saved my life in that fire. The whole Merrick family owes her. So drop it."

That debt. Always that debt.

Three years. No matter how many times Brielle humiliates me, degrades me, Tristan only ever has one answer: "I owe her my life."

But the truth about that fire? I'm the only one in the world who knows it.

I tried to tell him once. He laughed in my face. "Adeline, you're so desperate for attention you'd make up something like that?"

So I shut my mouth. Buried the truth. Buried whatever was left of my heart along with it.

The man I trusted with my life just handed my child to the woman who killed them, and called it loyalty.

I'm done.

I pull up the number I blocked three years ago and hit call.

"Dad. I'll take over the company. I'll go through with the engagement to Everett. But I have one condition. I want Tristan and Brielle ruined beyond recovery. Nothing and no one left."

“He gave her a ring. She came for his blood.”

Kira Antonova married the most feared man in Moscow. Not for love—but for revenge. Maxim Belov, head of the Bratva, is her enemy… and her only way to uncover the truth about her aunt’s brutal murder.

With a smile on her lips and a knife behind her back, Kira plays the part of the perfect mafia wife. But the deeper she slips into Maxim’s world, the more uncertain her heart becomes. He’s ruthless, yes—but not without scars. Not without secrets.

As passion ignites and loyalties fracture, Kira must decide: Will she finish what she started—or will her vendetta destroy them both?

In a world where love is lethal and truth is never simple…
Can vengeance survive desire?

He rules with silence.
She survives by staying invisible.

Darius Valecrest is not a man who bends. As Alpha of the Valecrest Dominion, his authority is absolute, his control legendary. He has built his reign on discipline, strength, and the unshakable belief that attachment is weakness.

Then Ivy Laurent steps onto his land.

She isn’t wolf.
She isn’t pack.
She isn’t meant to matter.

But the moment Darius catches her scent, instinct roars what logic denies — she is his.

Ivy came to Valecrest territory to disappear. Fleeing a past that stole her voice and fractured her confidence, she wants nothing more than anonymity and safety. What she finds instead is a man whose presence commands rooms — and whose protection feels dangerously close to possession.

When rival Alphas discover Ivy carries dormant blood from an ancient lineage capable of destabilizing the Dominion, she becomes more than a woman.

She becomes leverage.
She becomes a threat.
She becomes a crown.

Now Darius must choose: protect his throne… or claim the woman who could destroy it.

And Ivy must decide if standing beside an Alpha means losing herself — or finally becoming something stronger.

Because in Valecrest territory, mates are not asked.
They are claimed.

Two kingdoms have spent centuries hunting creatures like me.

My parents died making sure they never caught me.

For three years, I survived alone, hidden deep within the wilderness, carrying a power I barely understood and a secret that could bring an entire kingdom to its knees.

Then an Alpha found me.

One act of mercy changes everything when I am taken to Ringdom Academy, a place filled with wolves, power, and people who would kill me if they discovered what I truly am.

All I want is to keep my head down, survive, and stay hidden.

Unfortunately, Karlton D’Varen has other plans.

Future Alpha. Hockey captain. Campus king.

Arrogant and Infuriating.

And somehow always where I least want him to be.

What starts as a mutual dislike quickly becomes something far more complicated when Karlton discovers a secret I can’t afford for anyone else to know. Suddenly, I’m stuck tutoring the one person I’d happily throw off a cliff, pretending to be his girlfriend, and spending far more time in his presence than should be legal.

The more I try to avoid him, the more our lives become tangled together. Secrets begin to surface. Bodies begin to appear. And the shadows I spent years outrunning are suddenly much closer than they should be.

Because someone knows who I am.

Someone knows what I can do.

And if the truth comes out, I won’t just lose the life I’ve built.

I’ll lose him too.

In a world ruled by wolves, fate, and ancient bloodlines, some secrets are worth dying for.

Mine might be worth starting a war.

"You think you can escape this, Amara? You're mine, just like she was."

Amara Vale never asked for any of this. What started as a quiet life in her village quickly spirals into chaos when her home is destroyed by vampires. Captured and brought to the Crimson Palace, she’s accused of witchcraft but only to uncover the truth: she’s the reincarnation of Queen Seraphina, a long-dead ruler. And Lucien Draven, the ruthless prince of the kingdom, is bound to her by an ancient curse.

Lucien, tormented by his past and his connection to Amara, can’t let her go. Despite his cold demeanor, there’s a history between them that she doesn’t remember, but he does. As she struggles with her newfound powers and fragmented memories, the pull between them grows undeniable. But Lucien isn’t just fighting his feelings, he’s hiding the truth about their past, and it’s a truth that could destroy everything.
