Rafe Cameron was the last person she should have fallen for -her best friend's brother, a Kook with too many demons to count. He drank to forget, fought to feel, and spiraled until there was nothing left of him but the chaos he created. But with her, he was different. She was the only one who could quiet the storm in his head, the only thing that made him feel something real. She should have walked away. He should have let her go. Instead, they became each other's favorite sin -an addiction neither of them could escape. 𝓗𝓮 𝓱𝓾𝓻𝓽 𝓶𝓮 𝓫𝓾𝓽 𝓲𝓽 𝓯𝓮𝓵𝓽 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓻𝓾𝓮 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮~

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

Book 2 of the accardi series Can be read as a standalone - but I recommend reading the don saved me first ~ "What're you thinking about?" Asher asks, pushing my hair away from my face. "Just that... I was in a crisis of searching for the truth, but look where it led me. To you." ~ 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢, a 20 year old assassin for her mother and fathers mafia - top assassin actually. She's searching for the truth on her biological mother, if she's alive, if she ran away, what happened to her, anything she can possibly find. Her parents told her the truth, but it was only what they knew. 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞, a 21 year old guard in need of money. He takes this job as a guard despite knowing it could be dangerous. What he doesn't know is it is dangerous, there's no chances or risks it just is. He knows he works for some rich man too, but doesn't know the monster that he is - and happens to be Estrella's biological dad. Estrella hates Asher the moment she sees him, figuring if he works for this monster he's just the same. Asher would have no clue why she'd hate him up until he learns Arsenio's true colors, who he truly is. Things go too far one day when Estrella's searching for the truth, Asher swooping in to help her. She finally learns he's not a horrible person like her biological father is, teaming up with Asher as he knows more than she does. With truths hidden, people to find, fucked up chemistry, this surely has to be a happy love story. Totally... ~ "Ich liebe dich, Erdbeere," I murmur against her lips, secretly revealing something I'm too scared to tell her yet. "I love you too, Asher." I freeze, wondering how the hell she knew I said that. "You know German?" I pull away, embarrassed but the fact that she said I love you back also has me reeling. "I know lots of languages, Asher." She giggles, pulling me back to her lips. "Now, keep kissing me."

I don't notice the flash being on, so she notices me taking the picture and pushes me away jokingly. "Delete that!" she begs. "And why should I do that?" I'm definitely keeping this picture. "I look horrible right now!" That's a load of shit. The thing is, whenever she thinks that she looks horrible is when she looks her best. But she also always looks her best.

Rhodes is an intimidating man, with no expression to match your attempted humor. But his art is like no other, a talented tattoo artist he gave people their wishes but better, making something permanent, merely impossible to regret. There was only one thing to make Rhodes soft, a gorgeous woman he studied like a student did before an exam, analyzing who she hung with, who she spoke to, hoping none of the interactions were genuine although they were. With the kindness that reminds one of a warm summer day, Cecelia serves Rhodes merely everyday at the local pub she waitresses for, his order the same every time to where she forgot his voice completely after the first time. After finding out where he works, she's determined to get him to speak, after all, he was the only one who she thought to be a bit strange. Little did she know he'd been watching her for months. Loving her from afar.

Aphrodite was tasked to make Thanatos a beautiful, mortal wife. To sit along his throne in the underworld. She was made to appear a soft, delicate flower, so much love to share, and optimism no one really had. Thanatos is the personification of death. You know, the man in the dark hooded tunic with the scythe. A Greek god tasked to collect souls of the newly deceased and bring them to the underworld. He decided when their time was up, merely decided the fate of individuals. He is the son of Nyx, goddess of night, and the brother of Hypnos, God of sleep. However a soul so sweet didn't deserve to be there. Thanatos knew her purpose, watched over her since she had been born, his hard shell never deliberately expressing care for her. But at 25 Aphrodite confronted Thanatos to bring his betrothed to the underworld. He refused, but time was ticking, the people were growing impatient. It had to be done.
