The car left. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. The driver had nothing to do with me.

Riley, a young omega trying to free himself from an abusive family, joins the military to fight criminal alphas who are enslaving his kind, but he finds much more than just his freedom: his new family. *** Riley Steele, a skilled omega soldier, is ready to do whatever it takes to get accepted into Special Operations Unit set to fight domestic terrorists: alphas who are trying to bring back times when omegas were considered broodmares and slaves. This unit hasn't accepted omegas in years, and the people standing in his way are not shy to take advantage of his determination. What choice does he have? He's safe from his abusive family if he stays in the army, but the infantry is infested with alphas who see him as nothing but a toy, so he must grow stronger to protect himself. The path forward brings him more abuse by alphas who hate to see a strong, skilled omega in the army, but it's too late to turn back now after everything he's already endured to get there. His wish finally comes true, and is allowed to join the unit with a promise his life will be hell, and the people he should be afraid of are not the terrorists... No... It's his allies he can't trust. Pushed to his breaking point, Riley joins Tactical Team 07, a team of ten alphas, fearing he's made the biggest mistake of his life. But perhaps these alphas are different. Perhaps his new captain is as kind and caring as he seems. Perhaps his new partner doesn't actually hate his guts like he pretends. And perhaps he has found his new family, his brothers, and with them, he might even learn he no longer wants to fight just to protect himself, but to protect his country and the freedom of all omegas. Trigger Warnings: Violence, Blood, Death, Implied Rape Welcome to Shaded Universe, where domestic terrorism is a big issue; where the good guys are not always good, and the bad guys aren't always bad; where men are cute and cuddly, and where "good boy" and "baby boy" are common phrases even between friends.

Eli Marlowe's life ends the night the Vellores break into his home. What was supposed to be an ordinary night turns into a nightmare when one of the most feared mafia families storms into his house searching for answers. Dragged into a world he knows nothing about, Eli suddenly finds himself trapped among dangerous men capable of killing without remorse. And the worst of them all notices him immediately. Lucian Vellore is cruel, unstable, and terrifyingly unpredictable. In the underworld, people fear him more than death itself. He is the kind of man who leaves blood behind wherever he goes and feels nothing while doing it. At least... that's what everyone believes. After the violent home invasion leads to Eli's captivity inside the Vellore mansion, survival becomes his only goal. Forced to live among monsters, Eli quickly realizes escaping the Vellores may be impossible. Especially when Lucian's attention begins turning into something darker. More obsessive. More dangerous. What starts as kidnapping slowly becomes fixation. And Lucian hates it just as much as Eli fears it. Caught in the middle of it all, Eli must learn how to survive in a world built on violence without losing himself completely. Because in the Vellore mansion, nobody leaves unchanged. And sometimes the scariest thing isn't the devil watching you from the shadows it's the moment you realize the devil may be the only one keeping you alive.

I AM UNTOUCHABLE. Or at least, that's what they say. A prodigy art student, an heir, a life so carefully composed it borders on myth; every movement precise, every flaw erased before it can exist. My name is Landon King, and control is my greatest creation, and I wear it flawlessly. Beneath it, something restless waits. Something sharp, alive with chaos I've spent years forcing into something presentable. Kings do not make mistakes. Kings do not get caught. Until, once, I do. A night meant to disappear doesn't. A misstep. A presence I fail to account for. And for the briefest moment, the illusion fractures...Right as I collide with Jeremy Volkov. A name spoken in low voices. He's something far more dangerous than the stories bother to capture. I should have ended things there. I can erase being caught. But being wanted...is an entirely different kind of ruin.

She was a loyalist to the rules until she unwittingly developed a taste for danger. She began to mistake recklessness for freedom, intoxication for strength, until the lines between caution and calamity dissolved altogether. And then there was him. The one they whispered about. The one with blood on his hands and shadows in his eyes. The one who looked at her like he had already decided how this would end. She did not want him, not until his cards came into play and she realized he had marked her as his ace, the piece he would use to topple the table and destroy the pot. She realized that falling back on the rules couldn't save her. It was already too late. He was going to ruin her, and she could feel the truth of it in her bones. He would twist her into a weapon, his own fire to ignite the empire. But one can forget how fickle the flames can be. Stoke them too much, and they no longer obey. They consume everything, even the hands that set them ablaze. ❥❥❥❥❥ ❣︎ 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞. ❣︎ 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐬. ❣︎ 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢-𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨.

"Join me," she murmured, her voice a seductive, low tone that carried on the still air. It was an invitation, a challenge, and a promise all rolled into one. She could feel his eyes on her, tracing the curve of her back, the swell of her hips just beneath the water's surface. The sight of her, bathed in moonlight, was a potent temptation. He remained motionless, a predator assessing his prey. The game had begun, and he knew that one wrong move could cost him everything. His jaw tightened, the muscle ticking. The silence stretched, thick with unspoken tension. Finally, a low growl rumbled from his chest. "You have no idea what you're asking," he said, his voice a dangerous caress. ༻❁✿❀༺ 𝐿𝑜𝓇𝑒𝓃𝓏𝑜 𝒜𝓁𝓋𝒶𝓇𝑒𝓏 It's a tale as old as time, once you make a deal with the devil. He's Ruthless. He's Cold.

What should've been just one night of surrendering to my desires turned into an endless stream of obsession. A deadly obsession. A sickening, mind-numbing obsession. She coursed through my veins, spreading rapidly like venom. She was my very own poison. She was my savior and my downfall. She was everything that I've ever dreamed of, everything I've ever wanted. Her taste lingered on my tongue, her scent haunted me every day, and her siren eyes were imprinted into my memory forever. She shouldn't have left me, she shouldn't have created this insatiable craving that couldn't be relinquished. Despite her attempt at trying to run from me, there wasn't a corner of this Earth that she could hide in because I'd always find her. Wherever she went, I'd be right behind her. Chasing her. Hunting her. Yearning for her. Becoming infatuated with the seductress wasn't on my agenda. I didn't plan on being sucked into her world but here I was, on my knees for a woman who pushed me away every chance she got. I burned for her and I'd burn the world for her. She controlled my heart, mind, body, and soul. And the worst part was, I wouldn't have it any other way.
