Zolani thought the worst was over the night her ex-stalker was finally arrested. She was wrong... When Officer Luke Dimitriou steps into her life, he is everything she should avoid...controlled, unreadable, and far too observant. He notices things no one else does: the way she twists the ring on her finger when she's anxious, the exact time she leaves for work, the way fear still shadows her after dark. Around him, Zolani feels safer than she has in months. That should have been her first warning. Luke should have closed her case and walked away. Instead, one look at Zolani turns his professional concern into something darker. He watches. He follows. He memorizes every detail of her life until protecting her becomes an obsession he can't control. Every threat against her feels personal. Every man who looks at her feels like a problem he needs to solve. But when strange break-ins, missing belongings, and the feeling of being watched begin to close in around Zolani, the line between protector and predator starts to blur. And the most dangerous truth of all? The man keeping her safe may be the one she should fear most.....

Dark. Possessive. Enchanting. She never believed fate could be this cruel. One day she was just an ordinary woman - independent, bright, and unafraid to speak her mind - and the next, she was bound by the silent command of a man who ruled not only a kingdom, but every heartbeat that dared to defy him. He was a King feared by many - arrogant, ruthless, and dangerously calm. His silence carried more power than any threat, and his gaze was enough to make the strongest men kneel. No one questioned him. No one dared to say no. Until she did. Their marriage wasn't born from love, but from power - a deal wrapped in deceit and sealed by force. She was meant to be his ornament, his queen in name only. But something inside her refused to bend completely. And that defiance, that flicker of fire in her eyes, became the one thing he couldn't control. He told her love was weakness. Yet every time she looked away, his possessiveness deepened. Every time she cried, his anger turned to obsession. He could destroy empires, but not the storm she brought into his heart. Trapped between duty and desire, she learns that every chain he places around her is not just to bind - but to protect. The palace walls whisper secrets, his touch hides unspoken fears, and every night she wonders: is she his prisoner, or his queen? A mysterious, darkly romantic tale of power, betrayal, and a love that blurs the line between dominance and devotion. Because when the King falls for his captive, the kingdom itself trembles. 👑

"You can't take all of us, sweetheart." Valen's voice is smooth, teasing, but the way his fingers brush against my hip isn't playful. It's testing. Behind me, Fennec chuckles, his breath warm as he leans in, his lips barely ghosting the shell of my ear. "She could try." His voice dips lower, dragging heat down my spine. "I'd love to watch her try." ------------------------------- Soraya Cordova was never meant to survive. Stolen as a child and discarded as a mistake, she was given a second chance when the Cordovas adopted her into a life of wealth, secrets, and silent wars. But when her parents are declared dead and the world turns against her found family, she realizes survival is no longer enough, she needs to fight. Raised as assassins, her adoptive brothers have spent years keeping her in the dark, but now? Now, she's in the center of the storm. Wanted by the government. Hunted by the man who created her. And trapped in a dangerous game of love, loyalty, and lies with the only people who have ever mattered. Because in their world, trust is a weapon. Not all love stories are gentle. Some are jagged at the edges, built on shadows and sins, tangled in pasts too dark to escape. White Lies is one of those stories. It's about the things we do to survive, the lies we tell to protect, and the love that thrives even in the darkest corners. Read at your own risk.

Demetria Howard has spent her life in sunlit halls, hidden behind silk curtains and soft smiles. In Elyria, she is the Porcelain Princess - pretty, harmless, forgettable. A girl made for treaties and tea, not thrones and war. Then the North comes. Válhir's armies crash against Aureline's golden walls, and the war everyone thought would never touch them arrives with steel and fire. To save her kingdom, Demetria's father agrees to the one price the Savage King demands: His youngest daughter. As a bride. As tribute. Gunnar Hårek, King of Válhir, is twice her age and drenched in blood and legend. They call him the Wolf King, the butcher of three realms, the man the gods themselves don't dare cross. He does not believe in love, only loyalty. He does not take prisoners. Yet when he sees Demetria - trembling, furious, and so breakable in her pale dress - he decides one thing: He will not share her. Not with her kingdom. Not with the gods. Not even with her past. Dragged from a palace of sunlight to a fortress carved from ice and stone, Demetria must survive a husband who terrifies her, a court that wants her gone, and a land that eats the weak. But the longer she spends under the Savage King's gaze, the more dangerous her own heart becomes. Because monsters are easy to hate. Men who bleed for you are not. This is a dark fantasy romance with a brutal Viking king, a sheltered princess, an age gap, and a marriage that begins as a bargain and turns into an obsession that could set the entire continent on fire.
