A single night shattered their family, leaving only wreckage in its wake. Two brothers vanished, their mother and sisters send away, their empire shaken. Now, those who remain must fight to survive in the wreckage. Jordan and Dean have embraced the mafia, believing that power is the only way to keep what's left of their family safe. The stronger they become, the less anyone can take from them again. Wyatt, restless and defiant, refuses to be just another soldier in their war. He wants answers-about the past, about the brothers they lost, about the truth no one will say out loud. And then there's Luke, the youngest, trapped in a world he never chose. While his brothers fight to hold on, he dreams of a way out. Bound by blood, divided by choices, each brother fights his own battle. But in a world built on power, betrayal, and violence, one truth remains: the past never stays buried. And if they don't find a way to stand together, what little they have left may be lost forever.

✧ 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐋𝐘𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 (𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍) ✧ When I was six I was kidnapped and taken away from my family for seven months. Thirteen years later and I have little to no memory of who had taken me. Ever since then my father has been severely overprotective and never lets me out of his sight. Now that I'm somewhat on my own everything starts to change. When I finish high school and start attending New York University my life takes a turn, for better and for worse. They're back. ☆ 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 ☆ Years ago we found our little angel. She just so happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was the light in our lives, until one day we lost her again. Thirteen years later and we still mourn the loss of our sweetheart, but we found her once, we will do it again. I am the head of the Russian mafia, or a professor at NYU depending who you ask. One day I raise my head to look around at the sea of students and my eyes lock on a familiar pair of ocean blue irises. ★ 𝐇𝐀𝐘𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐋 ★ I'm a heartless killer and offer no apologies for it. As the head of the Russian mafia along with being the CEO to a multibillion dollar company, my life is nothing but darkness. During the day I'm an office man, at night my knife slashes through the necks of anyone I can get my hands on. Killing is my outlet, ever since I lost her. It helps me keep my anger in check. I've never stopped looking for her. We've come close multiple times, but each time came out unsuccessful. As I put a bullet in the head of my ex-guard, Alex comes rushing into the room, and the look on his face says it all. He found her. Start: July 4th End: ///

Born to be a legacy, I was meant to lead-until my powers never manifested. My parents called me a failure, a pawn to marry off for their schemes. So, I ran. I left behind everything: my fated mates, the academy where future leaders of Ostania are forged, and the destiny that demanded my obedience. For three years, I've lived in the shadows, trying to survive. But now, I got dragged back to the academy, my duties, and the dangerous games of power and survival. Life and death are daily lessons here. My Nexus despises me, my enemies want me dead, and everyone thinks I'm broken. A girl with no powers. But they can't know the truth. My powers are a secret I must protect at all costs. *this is a why choose/reverse harem book where the FMC ends up with more than one partner *this story is a work of fiction *this book will contain smut (later in the story)

In a world where vampires rule and humans are nothing more than livestock, (Y/n) has spent her entire life trapped inside the Human Management Bureau, a sterile underground system where humans are cataloged and kept for breeding, feeding, and experimentation. Escape was never part of her fate, until the night the alarms scream, and a stranger pulls her into the dark. But freedom isn't waiting for her beyond those walls. (Y/n) is thrown into a brutal underground world of black markets, starving vampires, religious fanatics, hunters, and whispered rumors of sanctuaries hidden somewhere on the surface. Hunted through a world of monsters wearing beautiful faces with a bounty on her head, (Y/n) quickly learns that her blood might be the only thing saving her. Or... it just might be the thing that turns her life into a living hell. Worse, the ones who find her don't want her dead. They want her, not just for the bounty on her head, but for what flows through her veins. There is something wrong with (Y/n)'s blood, something addictive. One taste is enough to leave vampires obsessed, euphoric, and unable to want anything else. Hunger twists into devotion, fascination rots into possession, and the longer they stay near her, the more dangerous that obsession becomes. As the city descends further into shortages, violence, and desperation, (Y/n) finds herself trapped between monsters who claim to love her, hunters who want to cash her in, and a world where humanity has become both prey and religion. And worst of all... a part of her still wants to trust them. #1 in #hedonism #1 in #yanderefanfic #1 in #infatuation #1 in #yanderefic #1 in #hunting #1 in #yanderexreader #1 in #disturbing #1 in #xreader #1 in #violent #1 in #sadist #1 in #vampireromance
