He's my stepdad. My obsession. And I'm his favorite sin. Noxton Gray isn't just a man. He's a storm-dangerous, addictive, and impossible to escape. The world knows him as the fallen model making his comeback. I know him as the man who watches me too closely, touches me too long, and whispers that I was his the second we met. He married my mother for convenience... but he looks at me like I'm the only thing worth ruining everything for. I should fear him. I should hate him. But instead, I ache to be claimed, to be ruined, to be his. Because when Noxton Gray wants something... he doesn't stop until it's his obsession. And his obsession... is me.

"You came to me. Broken. Scared. I held you in my arms, just like this. And realized that you were the one for me." April Owens never wanted to fall in love. Formally known as Experiment 004, the 19 year old knows her status means risks or even death for anyone who gets close to her. Even without her powers. That is until she met Eddie Munson, the towns resident freak. When Eddie is accused of murdering the head cheerleader, it's a rush against time to prove his innocence. But beyond the veil lies the secret to why Aprils powers disappeared, why bodies are piling up and why the picturesque town of Hawkins, Indiana seems to be cursed. Based on "A Slow Burn " POV on TikTok, the novelization is a retelling of April and Eddies story in traditional form. •·················•·················• Authors Note: WARNING! 18+ ~ This is a "Smut Fiction" with explicit sex scenes, violence and language and mature themes including drugs, trauma and alcohol use ~ •·················•·················• MATURE 18+ After "ST4" Sex, Drugs, Violence, Alcohol, Trauma MCs - Young Consenting Adults •·················•·················• Credit: Cover Art - thelovelyleviathan (Insta) Dividers - dividers-are-us (Tumblr) & saradika-graphics (Tumblr) Editor - Lady_Hellfire_

Kara Stevens left home at seventeen to avoid a life she didn't want. Now she's back, trying to balance finding her place again and an unexpected romance. Mature themes, like what I consider gratuitous smut. Language. Crime - murder. This is a work in progress; I have many chapters done but will be editing and changing things as I go/am inspired. Please forgive inaccuracies with the criminal aspect; I'm researching and trying to work it in realistically, but it is a fiction book so keep that in mind. Please leave comments and vote as this is the first multi-chapter story I'm posting that's all from me. It's not a fanfic or based on another story, just created from an online prompt for a Mafia Romance.
