"I knew he was trouble the moment I walked into our shared house. The way his hands gripped my waist when no one was looking, the way his voice dipped when he said my name, it wasn’t just wrong, it was dangerous. He wasn’t just my stepbrother, he was my undoing." **** All Evie Hayes wanted was to finish her college degree in peace, far from the chaos of her past. But when she moves into her stepfather’s house near Ravencrest University, she finds herself stuck with Ryder Kingsley, her stepbrother and the school’s golden boy. Ryder is everything she’s sworn to avoid, arrogant, infuriatingly handsome, and completely off-limits. When late-night arguments turn into stolen touches, their forbidden connection becomes impossible to ignore. But in a world where secrets don’t stay hidden, someone’s bound to uncover the truth. And when they do, Ryder and Evie will have to decide if the risk is worth the ruin.

Trigger/Content Warning: This story contains mature themes and explicit content intended for adult audiences (18+). Reader discretion is advised. It includes elements such as BDSM dynamics, explicit sexual content, toxic family relationships, occasional violence and strong language. This is not a fluffy romance. It is intense, raw and messy, and explores the darker side of desire. “Kiss me, Vivian.” “Why here?” “Because your ex is taking our coats,” he said, his gaze cold. “And I want him to know you belong to me now.” Vivian Abel was supposed to marry the love of her life. Instead, she walked in on him buried deep inside her identical twin sister. One shot at the bar led to another. One hazy night blurred into a binding decision. And one man’s proposition became a contract, sealed with a diamond ring and her trembling signature. Liam Simon is the devil in a bespoke suit. A commanding billionaire, ruthless and possessive. A man forged by a legacy of power and secrets. He lives with a rare condition that leaves him numb—to pain, to pleasure, to a lover’s caress. Until Vivian’s skin meets his, and the world ignites at his fingertips. And now, he possesses her. With a contract and in his bed. She craves the ruin only he can offer. He demands her submission, her loyalty… and her trust in his plan for revenge. Their arrangement was meant to be simple, but it unravels into a storm of raw obsession. Buried family secrets and a vindictive ex with a shocking connection to Vivian’s bloodline threaten to shatter their fragile bond. Liam Simon never shares what is his. Not his empire. Not his wife. And especially not his revenge.

[Mass release November 1st] Kim Min-jae thought he was just borrowing his sister’s new gothic romance novel. Instead, he wakes up as Kaizar Amagi, the man who ruins everything for the novel’s beloved heroine. In the original story, Kaizar is a ruthless schemer who marries Duke Meical Vukasin, the heroine’s destined partner, purely to destroy her. He dies hated and alone. But Min-jae isn’t planning to die for anyone’s plot. If he’s stuck as the homewrecker, he’s going to be the best damn homewrecker this world has ever seen. He plays his part flawlessly: charming Meical, dismantling the heroine’s plans, and smiling sweetly as she loses everything she holds dear. What he doesn’t expect is for Meical to fall for him for real or for the story to reveal a hidden BL route that was never in the book his sister read. Now, in a world of revenge, lies, and dangerous passion, Kaizar isn’t just ruining the heroine’s fairytale ending… he’s rewriting the entire story as his own.

On her half-sister's wedding day, Fia's world shatters. Hazel, the bride, has allegedly eloped with Fia's fated mate, and over the phone he rejects her without mercy. With the Alpha groom ready to unleash war on her pack, and spurred on by her stepmother's pleas, Fia makes a desperate choice; she takes Hazel's place at the altar. But the marriage is nothing more than a cruel setup. Betrayed by her family and accused of stealing her sister's happiness, Fia becomes the perfect target for Alpha Cian's wrath. Humiliated and furious, he vows to keep her as his mate not out of love, but revenge. He swears he will break her, torment her, and make her pay until the end of time. What neither of them expects is that hate can twist, burn, and evolve into something far more dangerous. Between lies, betrayal, and a growing bond neither wants to acknowledge, Fia and Cian are bound to discover that the thin line between hate and love is meant to be crossed.

To be a hero is a curse, not a blessing. It's a simple truth Leon learned in the most painful of ways. He heroically slaughtered all the enemies of his president. Heroically purged those who opposed his master. And heroically brought doom to those who cried under the boot of the world's dictator. Leon saw the death of his family; a result of the events he set in motion himself. He saw his beloved city turn into ruins, scorched by the radioactive flames of the nuke he set off. His title was as cheap as his life. And in the only act of rebellion he could find, he heroically put an end to his life... And the world he helped to destroy. 'All of this happened... But why am I hearing a self-entitled voice calling me a failure?' Leon couldn't help but ponder. 'No, that's not it...' he quickly corrected himself. 'How can I hear anything if I evaporated in the wake of the nuke I detonated myself?'

I fumbled with the lock, my pulse hammering. I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't want this. "Alaric," I breathed, but his name barely made it past my lips before his hands were on me—hot, demanding, unstoppable. "Tell me to stop," he murmured against my throat, his fingers sliding beneath my dress. "Tell me you don't want this." I opened my mouth—to argue, to push him away—but all that came out was a soft, shuddering gasp as he found the one place that betrayed me. His dark chuckle sent a shiver down my spine. "That's what I thought." Betrayed and humiliated at the altar. Isla never planned to ruin herself in the arms of another man. But heartbreak led her straight into the grasp of Alaric Voss—powerful, ruthless, and twice her age. One night. No names. No future. Or so she thought. Because when the sun rose, Isla came face-to-face with her new boss—the same man who had just claimed her in every sinful way possible. Now, resisting him is impossible. He's everywhere—watching, teasing, owning her with every smirk, every touch. She swore it was a mistake. He swears it's just the beginning. And the more she fights him, the more she realizes the truth: She was his from the moment he laid eyes on her. And Alaric Voss doesn't let what's his slip away.

The sky was painted gray forever. The light of the sun was restrained. The darkness of the night was deeper than ever. At such a time, he belonged to a class people didn't even recognize as 'human'. He was at the bottom of the social stratum, a slave. And when his only family was taken away from him... he no longer had a purpose in life. Yet, he clung to life because of his promise. And he set an impossible goal for himself, just so he'd have an excuse to live. When he finally reached a place he never expected to be, in pursuit of a purpose he expected to fail and die miserably trying to fulfill... he awoke to a night that would change his entire life. He was an insignificant fly, a mere speck in the destruction of the Empire. But he... survived. And, despite being a slave, he gained the blessing of a king. Or rather, the curse... ******* Discord Server: https://discord.gg/eRZTrv6Y49
