Brothers of the Empire Series. Wealth. Secrets. Temptation. Some families build legacies. Mine built cages. I wasn't supposed to get tangled in this world-not like this. I was meant to laugh, distract, play the fool, keep everything light. But when the past refuses to stay buried and desire claws its way in, even my sharpest jokes can't cover the cracks. This is a story of glitter and grit-of nights too long, whispers too loud, and glances that sting sharper than blades. It's about the hunger you're not supposed to admit, the kind of pull you can't reason away. It isn't just romance. It's obsession dressed in silk. It's devotion wrapped in danger. It's chaos disguised as laughter, where every smile hides a secret-and every touch could burn the world down. If you like chaotic friend groups, dangerous family dinners, slow-burn tension that catches fire when you least expect it, and the fine line between love and obsession, you're in the right place. ----------------- (You can read it as a standalone, but I highly recommend starting with the first book. It will give you a deeper understanding of the story, the characters' backstories, and the overall timeline, making it easier to follow what's happening in each book.) (There are seven books in total, and each one will stay unreleased until the previous is finished.) ------------------ 1# 🥇(Representation) 17/1/2026 1# 🥇 (Sibling chaos) 8/11/2025 2# 🥈 (Convenience) 7/1/2026 3# 🥉 (Mexico) 10/04/2026 4# (Exotic) 19/1/2026 6# (Goldboy) 7/11/2025 6# (Fast) 26/11/2025 7# (Marriage Of Convenience) 30/10/2025 9# (Slow) 8/11/2025

Poetical Raindrops Series Benjamin stood in the rain because there was nowhere else to go. Thunder cracked overhead, close enough to rattle his ribs. Streetlights blurred into long streaks of gold as rain poured down, turning the road beneath his feet into glass. His clothes clung to him, heavy, cold, but he didn't move. He barely breathed. Cars rushed past, spraying water, strangers sealed safely inside their own lives. No one looked at him twice. To them, he was just another man caught in a storm. They couldn't see the way his hands trembled. Or the truth pressing painfully against his chest. The rain whispered his name. Not loudly. Not all at once. Just enough for him to notice. Just enough that he couldn't ignore it. It wrapped around him, soaked into him, as if it had been waiting, for this moment, for him. Benjamin took a step forward, his heart pounding. He didn't know where the road would lead. He didn't know what he was about to lose. But he knew one thing with absolute certainty: By the end of the night, nothing in his life would ever be the same. ------------------------- Book Information: Chapters are intentionally long and immersive 🏆 Rankings & Achievements 🥇 #1 (Dyslexia) - 07/01/2026 🥇 #1 (Languages) - 12/11/2025 🥈 #2 (Literacy) - 12/11/2025 #6 (Representation) - 12/11/2025 #8 (Long) - 07/02/2026 #18 (Illnesses) - 09/01/2026

The Possession Series If I had ordinary parents, maybe I would've been ordinary too. Maybe my life would have been sculpted by small rules: curfews, lectures, the slam of a door and the promise of a second chance. Maybe my name would drift, unnoticed, through the world. But I wasn't born into ordinary. I was born to a family that confuses possession with love, gilding it in the language of legacy to make it sound noble. My father oversees me like a distant god, certain my life belongs to him. When he speaks my name, it isn't comfort, it's a declaration of ownership. And my brothers, they do not guard me. They confine me. Ten of them. Ten shadows moving before me. Ten blades masked as guardians: loyal, relentless, terrifying. They count my steps, measure my glances, watch every hand that dares reach, as if my freedom is a treasure always at risk of being stolen. They call it safety. They call the world cruel. They're not wrong. People die too easily here, sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, always explained away. Truth never comes clean; it comes in whispers, traded in back rooms, sealed with prayers that sound like threats. In this house, devotion is a weapon. Loyalty, a leash. Wanting anything for myself is treated as treason. I'm the most cherished. So I'm the most controlled. Which means one day I'll either be their salvation......or the reason they fall apart. ⚠️ Reader Advisory ⚠️ This story is raw, realistic, and uncensored. It contains strong language, explicit sexual content, violence, and emotionally intense themes. Includes honest depictions of medical conditions and body differences.

(Completed) Rolling in the Dust Series When Woody's past collides with the chaos of the present, his once-quiet ranch life spirals into laughter, lust, and unexpected love. Caught between his fiercely protective best friend, Sig, and the undeniable pull of Jackson and Colton, Woody finds himself swept into a whirlwind of teasing banter, aching tenderness, and tumultuous desire. From fiery encounters in the barn to playful breakfasts, long trail rides beneath open skies, and late-night confessions shaped by a haunted past, Woody must navigate intimacy, trust, and the exhilaration of being truly seen. Three hearts. One tangled bond. And a love that refuses to break. This is a story of friendship, passion, and finding home in the arms of those who refuse to let go. Woody is fast-paced; Jackson and Colton are a slow burn. ⚠️ EDITOR'S NOTE ⚠️ This book is currently under editing. Important Notes for Readers: Trigger warnings will be provided.

(Completed) Brothers of the Empire Series I've never been entirely sure where I belong. Most days, I exist somewhere between wanting to fit in and wanting to disappear altogether. The world moves too fast, too loud, too bright, too full of unspoken rules that everyone seems to understand but me. So I stand there, another face in the crowd, pretending the thrum of the music doesn't make my chest ache, pretending the lights don't burn when they hit just right. But that night wasn't about pretending. It wasn't loud or dramatic. It was quiet, a small break in the noise where something inside me shifted. Life never warns you when someone important is about to enter your world. They simply appear, slipping into your orbit so softly you almost miss it. That's how it began for me. One night. One unexpected moment. And the start of everything that followed. --------------------------- Author's Notes This story is told in short chapters, with many moments that build gradually over time. While it can be read as a standalone, it serves as the first book in the Brothers of the Empire series, offering deeper insight into the characters, their histories, and the overarching timeline. The series consists of seven books, each to be released only after the previous installment is completed. 🏆 Rankings & Achievements 🥇 #1 (Spanish) - 06/01/2026 🥇 #1 (Mexico) - 09/11/2025 🥇 #1 (Autism) - 12/11/2025 🥉 #3 (Mlm) - 10/02/2026 🥉 #3 (Burn) - 04/01/2026 #6 (Struggles) - 23/01/2026 #19 (BxB) - 29/10/2025
