[COMPLETED] After the fall of Hogwarts, Ranrok's victory reshaped the world. Wizards and witches were branded like cattle, their magic bound to servitude and turned into "wells" - living vessels, drained and used by their human captors. Sebastian Sallow has known nothing but chains and ownership since the war's end. Bought. Broken. Discarded. Until the day a woman with storm-gray eyes claims him and everything begins to change. As secrets unravel and sparks ignite, survival becomes something far more dangerous. Because the woman who holds his leash may also hold the key to everything they've both lost. ༓☾༓༒༓☽༓ Instituted by the goblin-human coalition as a means of maintaining post-war order, the Branding Procedure replaced personal autonomy with structured containment. Wells - formerly wizards and witches - were marked with arcane sigils that both sealed their magic and allowed for controlled access by authorized humans. "A well that survives is more useful than one that breaks. Control does not require brutality. It requires comprehension." - General Aryndell

All it took was one moment for everything to change. One moment and three dangerous men who emanated equal parts pleasure and pain. Following her father's disappearance, Madelyn Adams takes her travels to New York in pursuit of an unlikely yet desperately needed lead. However, when she soon finds herself witness to murder, everything becomes so much more complex. A "gunshot to the head" was what she relayed to responding officers, yet after a suspiciously brief investigation, results concluded not a single trace of evidence to support the committing of any crime, let alone one as messy as the casualty Madelyn described. No blood, no fingerprints. It was almost as though it never happened. Almost. If it weren't for the lingering memory of that low voice in her ear or the caress of his gloved hands on her body, she would've thought she'd hallucinated. Taken together, that should have been the most complicated part, but it wasn't. Instead, it was the three dangerous men who covered it up and caught interest in her in the process. ____ "I don't know how long it's going to take you to realize this sweetheart, but you belong to us." He says, yanking my head back so that his intense eyes meet mine. "You're ours to fuck, ours to love, and ours to claim in any way we want, isn't that right Madelyn?" "Mmm, yes Sir." "Well it seems to me like you need a reminder." He growls into my ear, before flipping my body to face him. "Now be a good girl and spread your legs. I want to taste what a needy little mess my words have made you." ____ Theirs to Claim is a full length, reverse harem novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book ends on a cliffhanger and is recommended for 18+.

[Book #3 in the Nystrom series] [TW: mature content, heavy topics, language] "You hate me." He states, sounding almost ridiculous. I shake my head. "I don't." A grin tugs at his mouth, he takes a step closer. "You like me then." I feel my heart race, the same way it has always done for him. "No." "You love me?" Another question, another lie, another step closer. "Definitely not." "Liar." In a split second his hands are on my waist. My heart not getting a chance to recover because now his lips are on mine. 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎, the innocent angel. Or so they thought.

She was like a knife, and he was ready to bleed. They promised friendship, nothing more-but hearts are liars, and so were they. 𓆩♡𓆪 Started: August 2024 Finished: TBA
