cover by @summerafterglow 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: highest rankings: #2 bwwm #4 ongoing

The School of Magic stood like its own kingdom towers of white stone, banners drifting in the wind, and the steady hum of spells woven into every wall. Young people with magic came here to learn control. Some grew into powerful magicians, protectors of the realm. Others became fairies keepers of the elements, born to guide and heal. It was a world that expected students to fit into neat roles. He never wanted either one. He came from a small, quiet town where life was simple until the day fire erupted from his hands. After that, nothing was simple. Sometimes he controlled the flames. Other times... the flames controlled him. And the last time he lost control, the memory burned deeper than any scar. He didn't come to the school to become a hero. He didn't care about ranks, titles, or glory. He came here for one reason: To stop being afraid of himself. To learn enough control to go home again back to the world where he believed he belonged. Or so he thought...

Intrigued by the shy, naive girl who ventured into his club, Emilian couldn't resist the temptation to get closer. But what started as mere curiosity soon transformed into an obsession to keep Rosabelle at his side. But there's one problem. Their families. Passion blurs the line between love & forbidden desires. And where loyalty is questioned, war can break free at any time.

Although no one knew it, Desire was struggling. It was highly unbelievable because as a top worker in one of Lagos' most exclusive and influential night clubs, she was making thousands every night. All her other friends were living large, and building houses, so why couldn't she? Her father had died five years ago, leaving them drowning in a sea of debt. Her mother was sick, and couldn't do anything, so from an early age Desire had had to wear the mantle of responsibility. A twenty six million naira debt was on her neck, and for five years, Desire had consistently been paying it off; while simultaneously keeping a roof over her mother's head, and saving up money for school. Salvation came at last; but in form of the hardest, most handsome man she had ever laid eyes upon? General Babalola Halal. He was offering five million Naira for a whole month of exclusive sex. Pure, undiluted gratification. It was her job, and this offer was coming on a platter of gold. Even more tempting was the fact that it was the exact amount needed to be free of her father's debt. Completely. But he was hard, and demanding, and excruciatingly virile. Accepting this posed a risk far greater than millions. The stark reality of losing everything she stood for, and gaining nothing in return because a man like this never gave anything of himself. He was rich, five million Naira meant nothing to him. But she knew what she was getting into, she knew how addictive his touch was, and how hard it was to stay sane around him. Could she do this? Was losing her sanity a price she was willing to pay?

READ TRIGGER WARNINGS! In a world where power is the ultimate weapon and betrayal is currency, the line between hero and villain doesn't just blur... it shatters. She's the woman you're warned about.

Loyalties are broken, alliances burned, and blood spills in their wake. But when the smoke clears, only one thing remains certain, trusting the devil doesn't make you safe... It makes you just like him. She's the sinner. He's the executioner. And in their obsession, no one gets out alive. Some stories don't have heroes. Some don't need them. This is theirs. Outlaw - where survival isn't enough, and obsession is the only law.

Klaus Dietrich is a professional menace in red velvet and murder. He leaves candy canes at crime scenes, licks lollipops during interrogations, and kills with the flair of a man choreographing his own funeral. The world calls him a psychopath. He prefers "romantic." Dr. Morgana Cruz is a brilliant, black woman, licensed therapist for high-profile criminals, and the only one brave (or foolish) enough to take him on. What begins as a favour to a friend turns into a high-stakes dance of power, seduction, and sanity. He flirts through bloodshed. She sets boundaries with surgical precision. But when obsession turns personal, and therapy turns into foreplay, the lines between patient and predator blur. She's the first person who's ever seen Klaus - really seen him - and that makes her the most dangerous person of all. Because Klaus isn't looking to be saved. He's looking to be loved. And he'll kill for it.
