Emery Carter wasn't supposed to survive that night. She left home hoping for a fresh start-new school, new city, new life. No one here knows the truth about the night that nearly ended it all. As far as everyone else is concerned, she's just another college girl trying to outrun her past. And she's fine keeping it that way. Then there's Silas Maddox. Arrogant. Infuriating. Completely off-limits. He's her brother's roommate, which means he's already too close for comfort. But with his sharp smirks, reckless charm, and an attitude that dares her to push back, staying away from him is impossible. The more she fights it, the more he gets under her skin. And when cracks begin to show in his untouchable exterior, Emery realizes she might not be the only one with secrets. Because Silas has demons too-ones that run deeper than she ever could have imagined. The son of a powerful man, raised in the shadow of a tragedy no one talks about. He's spent years making sure no one gets too close. Until her. She swore she'd never let anyone in again. He swore he wasn't capable of caring. But the lines between them are blurring, and they're both about to break every rule they've ever known. Will they heal each other-or will they be the final push that makes them fall apart?

The Costantino Sequel - Featuring Costa, Millie, the twins, and all the Accardi madness readers know and love, ROCCO is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers descent into obsession, loyalty, and fire. The Accardi family is back. And this time, it's Rocco's turn. At 30 years old, Rocco Accardi is known for a lot of things-his temper, his recklessness, his complete disregard for consequences. As the future underboss of Sicily's most feared family, he was never meant to feel anything. Until her. Alessia Russo, 26, Palermo's top real estate agent, has spent the past three years keeping things strictly professional. Which is hard to do when your most dangerous client spends every meeting flirting like it's a sport-and you've had a crush on him since day one. He's chaos. She's control. Their relationship was never meant to cross the line. But one wrong step-and everything spirals. Rocco doesn't know how to love. But he knows how to destroy. And once he decides she's his, he'll burn the city before he lets her go. Something is coming. And nothing will be the same after it hits.

Forced into a marriage neither of them wanted, a fierce Greek mafia princess and a ruthless Sicilian underboss must navigate a storm of power, passion, and betrayal-only to discover that their greatest battle might be against their own hearts. *** They hated each other from the moment they met, but little did they know, they were destined to be together. Millicent Rhea Darmos: Princess of the Greek Mafia. At 25 years old, she's established herself as a self proclaimed boss bitch, running her own publishing company. But now it's time she fulfils her duty to her family's organisation. It's time she gets married. Costantino Salvatore Accardi: Underboss and Heir to the Sicilian Mafia. At 28 years old, he has no interest in settling down-he already has it all. He believes in family above all, so why bring in an outsider? Yet, after a strange string of events, the two of them find themselves thrust into married life. It's full of chaos, drama and all kinds of tension. The question is, how do they survive their marriage and the storm that follows? *** "I've never kissed anyone." My voice trembled with a tinge of vulnerability - something I hated. But Costa didn't seem to mind that I was nervous or anxious. "Good. You're mine." He spoke so seriously, without a flicker of doubt as he took my hand in his. "So you want it be special, principessa?" "Every girl's first kiss is special." I whispered, watching as he brought my hand up to his lips. "I only care about yours."

My name is Amaya Stone. I am 22 years old and this is my story... My father - "gambling addict". But one day, he took a loan from a guy who he didn't know was The King of all Vampires and gambled away all of the money. When the time came for repayment, he had no money and sold me to that blood sucking monster!! What the hell? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ My name is Elvin Silvester and I'm 356 years old since my existence as vampire but 24 years old as a young boy. I kept searching for my beloved for years and years till I gave up and thought that she didn't exist. Then, by luck?... one day, a man who smelled like shit and looked similarly to the smell, asked me for a loan of $2 million. I gave the money to him as it didn't matter too much. But then when the time came to repay, well, let's just say he didn't. Instead he proposed me a deal. He would repay me by selling her daughter to me. When he showed me her, I knew... I just...knew that she was my beloved... and I would do anything to gain her, protect her and claim her!

"What are you doing here?" I gulped at the hoarse voice. Instead of replying, I stared at Maria's corpse lying on the floor. "You smell so sweet." I hear him speak licking his lips. He did next what I was being afraid of, he closed the remaining distance by stepping ahead and held my waist with one of his muscular arm while the other swept the hair to the side exposing my bare neck. I was scared to death. ________________♧♧♧_______________ In a world where humans and the supernaturals lived together, Elina's parents were killed by a mysterious vampire.

A fanfiction story inspired by the characters of CL Stone's Ghost Bird (and Scarab Beetle) series, set in the extended world of Cassandra Clare's Shadowhunters series. I own neither franchise, nor do I claim to. Rights belong to their respective owners. Starting on May 15th, aka Upload Day (courtesy of the lovely ladies on the FB group). ------- Sang Sorenson has always been able to 'see' more than ordinary people, to perceive strange and fantastical things out of the corner of her eye that she can't begin to explain, but, as the youngest daughter in a family who see her as nothing more than a glorified servant, she's used to being invisible. She takes solace in these fleeting glimpses into a world where she's not so alone... even if it's all just inside her mind. In the Downworld, there are whispers of a mysterious, avenging angel who runs the city with an iron fist. Nephilim from the Blackbourne Institute patrol the streets, keeping the peace and silencing anyone who dares disturbs it. Little is known about what goes on inside the gates of the Blackbourne Institute, but one thing is certain. If you catch a glimpse of a Shadowhunter stalking you in the night... run! When Sang finds herself thrown out onto the streets at night, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to an old, abandoned building that she swears she's never noticed before. Only, it's not nearly as abandoned as it seems. Sang is about to discover that there is more to the world around her than she could have ever thought possible... and she might have finally found a place that she can call home. Creative inspiration from the brilliant BLTS2004, and a gorgeous cover by rosebud024.

Finding out that your parents, the people that raised you your whole life, weren't your actual parents was hard. Being told at the ripe ol' age of eighteen that you're the last living member from an Ancient Shifter line, the one responsible for creating the First Shifters, was inconceivable. Especially when a group of assassins were on their way to exterminate me simply for just existing. Kidnapped from my bed by three extremely stunning and grumpy Alphas, and forced to attend a special Shifter University located in the middle of nowhere, I have to navigate an unfamiliar and unknown secreted world while simultaneously trying avoiding those who want to use my lineage to enact an age-old curse. Join Nova Nyx as she's dragged into a world full of Shifters, Secrets, and Startling Surprises. ~~~ "Mates?" I repeated owlishly, blinking rapidly at the one worded bomb they just dropped on me "What are Mates?" Instead of answering my question, they just stared back at me in silence, arms crossed over their broad chests. I ignored their silence, choosing to focus on second part of their sentence. "And you're telling me I have three of them?" I gawked "How many are you supposed to get? I can barely handle myself and my life at this point and you want me to worry about three other people?" Of course the most annoying man I've ever met smirked at my bafflement. "I don't think it'll be such a hardship for you" he said, arrogance lacing his tone "After all, I hear these three Mates of yours are very self-sufficient." "Don't forget extremely gorgeous" his Buffon of a friend chimed in, winking at me "That's a plus for you Princess." "One," the third one growled out at me, finally speaking up and adding subsistence to the conversation, startling the banter from the other two "You're only supposed to be blessed with one Mate in your entire lifetime."

TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response. "All you need to know how to do is satisfy me." "How exactly am I supposed to satisfy you?" The answer to such a question is obvious, yet, like the idiot I am, I still asked him. "Blood...and of course, other means." BLURB: When college student Cyra finds her life falling apart after a brutal breakup, she wishes for an escape-only to awaken in a realm filled with sword-wielding vampires, deadly elves, and more fantastical creatures.
