I cupped her face, planting a soft kiss on her beautiful lips. "Don't ever run from me, baby," I said softly, letting my thumb trace her jaw. "I love the chase." Her jaw tightened, her hands coming up to try and move mine. "Stop calling me baby, Ezra," she snapped, eyes flashing. I couldn't help but grin, dropping my voice to something low and dark. "Ohhh, now my baby has a problem with me calling her baby?" She shot me a glare, but I just tucked her hair behind her ear, pressing another kiss to her lips-gentler this time, lingering. "You don't get to tell me what to call you, baby." I leaned in closer, brushing my nose against hers. "You're whatever the fuck I call you."

They called her a mistake. They called him a monster. Princess Ariel Ravenspire was born of forbidden passion - the bastard daughter of a king who cannot bear to look at her and a mistress long since forgotten. In the court of Elarion, she is a ghost draped in silk, invisible except when her half-siblings need a target for their cruelty. They've spent years trying to break her and snuff out the gentle fire that burns within her chest. But Ariel refuses to become the villain of her own story. Where they offer hatred, she gives grace. Where they see weakness, she harbors an unshakable strength. Across war-torn borders, in the shadow-draped Kingdom of Umbrahal, Crown Prince Caden Valtara is the nightmare that haunts the wicked. They call him the Demon Prince - a title he's earned with blood and brutality. Ruthless to his enemies, merciless to the corrupt, he moves through the darkness like vengeance incarnate, dismantling trafficking rings and crushing those who prey upon the powerless. The aristocracy trembles at his name. The common folk whisper prayers of gratitude. He is judge, jury, and executioner - and he has never apologized for the monster they've made him. When two kingdoms exhausted by endless war finally seek peace, the price is steep: a royal bride to seal the treaty. Ariel, the unwanted princess, becomes the sacrifice - a lamb offered to the demon. She expects death, or worse. He expects a fragile, terrified girl who will cower in his presence. But neither expects to find, in the person they were taught to fear, the one soul in all the realms who truly sees them. She was raised to be forgotten. He was born to be feared. But some bonds are forged in fire - and no kingdom can stand against them. A demon feared by all. A princess loved by none. Tropes: Only soft towards her Insta Love (INSTA) Arranged Marriage (forced) Love at first sight Villian mmc (kinda?) Touch her and die 🤭 HEA

Every morning, Serenity shows up to the office before anyone else - including Ezra Langford, her infamously cold, calculating, and annoyingly attractive boss. She brings him coffee, not because he asks, but because she wants to - always with a handwritten quote on the cup, something cheesy, optimistic, and completely not his style. Or so she thinks. Because while Ezra never says thank you, never even cracks a smile... he's kept every single cup lid with her notes. Hidden in the bottom drawer of his desk, they're the only bright spot in his otherwise grayscale life. But when Serenity's warmth starts to get under his skin - and into his heart - he'll have to decide if he's brave enough to step out of hiding and tell her the truth: She's not just his coffee girl. She's the only reason he still believes in good things. »»-------¤-------«« "So, uh... any regrets on the merger yet?" "Only that Chase ordered shrimp from that place on 8th again." I laugh, too hard and too quickly. "You didn't like it?" "It tastes like regret." I grin. "That's what he said about your budgeting spreadsheet." Ezra's mouth twitches. Not a smile, not really. But close. I should say something professional. Something normal. Instead- "Do you really read them?" I ask softly. He looks up. "The quotes," I clarify, nervous now. "Do you actually read them, or... just collect them?" His eyes hold mine. There's no teasing in them. No cold, hard CEO mask. "I read them," he says. »»-------¤-------«« Word Count: 26, 074

When a world-renowned Black surgeon Dr. Amara Blake finds a bruised, shivering four-year-old boy abandoned behind a dumpster, her instinct is immediate-save him. She has no idea that the quiet, broken child she's nursing back to life is the missing heir of Sergei Mikhailov, a ruthless Russian mafia don with a blood-soaked past and billions at his command. As Amara and little Nikolai form an unbreakable bond, Sergei's desperate search leads him straight to her door-and to a woman whose strength, warmth, and unapologetic grace challenge everything he thought he knew about power and love. But the past is never far behind. As danger creeps closer and secrets unravel, Amara and Sergei must confront the darkness threatening their fragile new world. What begins as protection becomes devotion, and what starts in survival ignites into something neither of them expected: a love powerful enough to rewrite their futures. Beneath Her Grace is a gripping, slow-burn romantic drama about healing, redemption, and the kind of love that makes even the most dangerous men kneel. #1 in Russian

In a kingdom where beauty and power dictate worth, Princess Evelyne has always been the forgotten one. Overshadowed by her radiant sisters, dismissed by her own family, and treated as nothing more than an afterthought, she has learned to live in the shadows-silent, invisible, and aching for something more. But when the feared and ruthless Dark King arrives to choose a bride, no one expects him to spare Evelyne a second glance. He is a man of legend-shrouded in mystery, draped in power, and said to have a heart as cold as the night itself. The court watches, breathless, as he surveys the dazzling princesses before him. And then, he chooses her. Whispers ripple through the halls. Shock turns to outrage. Why would the Dark King-a man who could have anyone-claim the overlooked, unwanted daughter? But as Evelyne is whisked away to his shadowed kingdom, she begins to uncover the truth. The Dark King sees what no one else ever has-her strength, her resilience, the fire beneath the quiet. And in his arms, beneath the weight of his intense gaze, Evelyne is no longer invisible. She is his. But as darkness looms and enemies gather, Evelyne must decide-will she forever remain the forgotten princess, or will she rise as the Dark Queen, feared and revered beside the man who saw her worth when no one else did?
