Elena has a mind at war with itself. Vittorio hides secrets no one should discover. When he chooses her as prey, she decides not to run. Some love stories are born in blood. ​▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ​Her mind is a parliament in permanent revolt: voices fighting for control, personalities seizing the wheel without warning. She has learned to survive by wearing masks, navigating a life that has never felt like her own. ​Vittorio is the highest-paid lawyer in Milan. Impeccable. Controlled. The man the guilty turn to when they want to become innocent. But behind the mask of perfection hides something far darker. ​When one night he chooses her as prey, Elena discovers she doesn't want to run. She discovers that terror tastes the same as excitement. And she discovers that perhaps, for the first time, someone truly sees her. ​This is not a redemption story. This is not a story about victims. This is the story of two predators who recognize each other in the dark. ​⚠️ Explicit content: violence, sex, death. Adults only.

HANTU RAYA: THE INHERITANCE A supernatural horror novella by Elmi Zulkarnain Osman "Some spirits serve. Some spirits obey. But this one remembers... and waits." When Cikgu Sulaiman returns to his ancestral kampung in 1970s Singapore to settle his late grandfather's affairs, he expects a quiet farewell to a forgotten past. Instead, he inherits something far older than the crumbling house - something watching, something bound to the roots of the land. It is called a Hantu Raya. Summoned by blood, kept alive by fear, this dark familiar once served his grandfather. Now, it hungers for a new master. And Sulaiman's refusal has consequences. The mirrors warp. The soil moans. The trees whisper names that should never be spoken. And his daughter begins to speak in tongues only the dead remember. As the line between nightmare and memory collapses, Sulaiman must uncover the terrible bargain that once bound his family to the unseen. He must act before the spirit devours not just his soul, but his legacy, his bloodline, and the last light left in his child's eyes. #HantuRaya #AsianHorror #SingaporeFolklore #SupernaturalThriller #DarkFolklore ________________________________________ 👁🗨 Inspired by true Southeast Asian folklore For readers who crave haunted heirlooms, generational curses, possession, and shadows that linger long after the lights go out. 🔥 Read if you dare. And remember, some spirits don't wait for permission to enter. They find their way in long before you notice.

"You will recognize him the moment you meet him. And when you feel that sense of recognition-that homey, warm and loving feeling in the depths of your being: run. He's bad news." You'd think Yiayia- who just happens to be a talented tasseographer- would have some other helpful information- like a name or sketch-but, no. Guess there are limits to how much future can fit into one cup. Ritsa's just booked the role of a lifetime. She scratched her name out of her college registry and it now seems to be written in the stars. Well, at least after they wrap shooting in five months. For now, she will be "Sonny," the boundary-breaking rockstar whose meteoric rise and cultural impact were powerful enough to earn him a biopic at just twenty-nine years old. Her actually meeting Sonny was never part of the plan. But she did. And that's where the chaos begins. As Ritsa slips deeper and deeper into Sonny's world, it becomes clear that she must choose between completing her creative mission or keeping her sanity. Especially, after she finds out that she and this rockstar-from-hell may actually share the same soul.

*Trigger Warning* This book depicts suicide and mental illness. Some souls are born to break the cycle. Others were never meant to live at all. Seventeen-year-old Ellie Lucas never asked to inherit a legacy of death. But after her mother's mysterious suicide and a cryptic note left behind, Ellie's world spirals into something far darker than grief. Haunted by visions, pulled into weekly therapy sessions that she dreads, and shadowed by a boy from her past with secrets of his own, Ellie learns the truth, she carries divine blood and is fated to die... unless she becomes something worse. Killian, the son of the God of Death, Ankou, was meant to claim her soul. Instead, he watches over her, bound by a curse of his own. As ancient Celtic powers awaken and soul-devouring creatures threaten the balance between Gods and humans, Ellie finds herself caught between destiny and defiance, love and vengeance, the living and the dead. But when the ultimate betrayal reveals someone who once was closest to her true motives, Ellie's fate is no longer hers to mourn-it's hers to rewrite. If your soul was the price for power, would you still fight to be free? Dive into a supernatural thrill ride where mythology meets mortality-and every choice echoes in eternity.

Only stubbornness, a runic compass, and a gift for charging artifacts-a basic skill no one cares about. And then there's the Heir of a noble clan, with whom she had to survive. Entirely against her will.
