𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒔 𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒗𝒂𝒍. But Aiden has never had any of that. Born with the rare gift of healing, the world sees his magic as a blessing-but to him, it's nothing more than a curse. His magic is draining, painful, and endlessly exploited by those stronger than him. In a realm where magic is a weapon and kindness a weakness, Aiden survives by keeping his head down and his heart closed. But the fragile balance of his life shatters when he crosses paths with an enigmatic prince. What begins as pure hatred between them slowly twists into something far more dangerous and consuming-desire. Driven by a restless need to uncover the true nature of the power running through his blood, Aiden is thrust into a year-long journey that challenges everything he thought he knew about survival, friendship, loyalty... and the cost of a forbidden love.

📖 Title: Crimson Debts Genre: Mafia BL / Dark Romance / Enemies-to-Lovers / Forced Proximity The Characters Kaelen "Kae" Thorne (The Enforcer/Heir): Cold, ruthless, and meticulously organized. He's the feared second-in-command and heir to one of the city's most powerful crime families. He values loyalty and payment above all else. He has a piercing gaze that rarely shows emotion but can cut through anyone. He's known for getting what he wants, one way or another. Julian "Jules" Vane (The Reluctant Pawn): Bright, artistic, and fiercely independent, but burdened by his family's struggles. He works hard, trying to keep his father's small, struggling art gallery afloat. He's sharp-tongued and doesn't back down easily, even when facing a terrifying figure like Kaelen. The Core Plot Julian's father, desperate to save his failing gallery, makes a fatal mistake: he borrows a substantial sum from the Thorne syndicate, believing he can pay it back quickly. When the deadline arrives, the gallery is still bleeding money, and his father is nowhere near repayment. Kaelen, known for his unyielding pursuit of debts, personally arrives to collect. Julian, trying to protect his ailing father from the syndicate's brutal methods, steps forward and offers himself. He makes a desperate deal: he will work off his father's debt, whatever it takes, for as long as it takes. Kaelen, intrigued by Julian's courage and perhaps a flicker of something in his defiant eyes, agrees. But his terms are harsh: Julian will become his personal assistant/manservant, bound to his side, privy to the syndicate's dark operations, and under Kaelen's absolute control until the debt is paid.

NOTE: The story contains mature actions and issues. It tells about the love between two young men. The story is NOT edited, but I have begun with that, so please read the Author's Note CAREFULLY, thank you. How do fire and ice combine together? Meet Travis Henderson, sort of new student, blunt to extreme when he can't keep his tongue on a leash, extravagant, vain and cocky as a cat and afraid of nothing. Well, almost. Although with his looks it's very difficult to walk-by unnoticed, he wants to keep a low profile and prefers to stay alone and the company of his I-pod only. Oh, did we mention he is gay? Proud and loud, he would say. Travis knows no half measures when it comes to feelings; he feels a fire burning inside him and has to let it out. Travis must have the object of his interest no matter what, but fire can really burn and hurt you, even if you are its master. And what happens when you realize who you want is the only man impossible to have? Yes, Travis is like a burning and shining ball of fire. Meet Aleksandr Lebedev, half Russian half American, star of the ice-hockey school team. Being 6′3″ tall with a fierce and dangerously annoyed glare make him one of the most feared guys in school. And he likes to be feared by useless and annoying people, since he doesn't appreciate to be involved in others' business at all. Sasha is like the solid and cold ice on which he skates, and only his family and closest friends have a place in his glacial world and heart. That's all you will ever get from Aleksandr and mind well not to annoy him. There is ice in his veins and nothing else. How will it turn out to bump into a constant magnet for trouble? How fire and ice combine together? Will the cold ice extinguish the fire or will the burning and unpredictable fire melt the ice?

In the beginning... he was like a storm: violent, dangerous, and perfectly capable of destroying everything in his path. He'd gotten his hands on everything needed to pin me in his trap. My home... my belongings... my life -- he could have taken any of them at any time, and I wouldn't have been allowed to so much as let out a single protest. In the end, though, what he ended up wanting more than anything else in the world was something I swore up and down I wouldn't ever give him. Me. 🌺👑💛👑🌺 Aerin Vanderhill is uncertain of who he is on the inside and what he really wants out of life. For seventy-five years, he's lived very quietly in a small but futuristic American town, sleeping during the day and occasionally meandering around at night, basically just wondering at his own depressing existence. His family is long dead and everyone he once loved is gone, so for him, all that's left is the silence of being alone... of mimicking life because its there and he has it. Its boring, but what's an awkward, socially inept vampire who's only true form of human contact comes through playing online video games supposed to do? Nothing. That's right, nothing. Because doing something would make him spiral. That's why he sticks to his routine, no matter how pointless it feels to him. Unfortunately, his simple way of living comes to an immediate end when a dangerous, beast-like man with strange powers and even stranger origins comes gallivanting into town, hunting for the so-called "leech" who lulls his victims to sleep before preying on them. Aerin is soon certain he's going to be murdered, but fate might just have other plans. (This is a story featuring male only romance. LGBT+) TRAILER INSIDE!

I took a kingdom with blood and iron. I did not expect to lose control over a single boy. Elias is nothing. A mute servant with no voice, no power, and no place beyond quiet obedience in a palace ruled by fear. He survives by staying small, by avoiding notice, by never giving anyone a reason to look twice. Until I did. I am not a gentle man. I am King Kazimir, and I do not release what I claim. What began as curiosity became something far more dangerous-an attachment I cannot ignore, and a need I refuse to name. He cannot speak. He cannot fight. He barely understands what I am making of him. Yet I pull him closer, step by step, into a place he was never meant to stand-at my side, under my gaze, and entirely within my control. And I do not let go of what is mine.
