TW: SELF-HARM This is a BXBXBXB story. Don't like, don't read. "Be careful, Fayez, not to touch anything or anyone. Keep your gloves on at all times, my sweet prince, or who knows what might happen". Fayez is the last-born child of one of the strongest family of vampires that ever existed. According to most, he should have led an easy life, for money was never a problem and he had many servants more than willing to fulfill his wishes. Fayez had everything to be happy, except for the fact that he was a burden to his own parents. See, there was something terribly wrong with his hands: everything he touched became rotten, so he had to keep his gloves on at all times. He was a leathal weapon, one that had to be kept a secret, so that other people wouldn't try to use his curse for their own benefit. When Fayez turned 21, his parents decided that their son could not be kept secluded in their castle any longer, and that it was more than time for him to face the outside world. They sent him to the prestigious ISB - Institute for Supernatural Beings, where every supernatural creature from age 20 to age 30 is given a special training to enhance his natural capabilities. How will the priviledged Fayez, who only ever knew the faces of his family and servants, survive in a place where most of the residents have experienced violence and cruelty from a very young age, and are street smart? More importantly, can this haughty, strong yet inexperienced, touch-depraved young man learn how to love and be loved in return, or is he far too gone already?

"When Love is War" Vera Devereaux's world was shattered the moment Dante Mercier's family betrayed her father leaving her family's name in ruins and her every move laced with vengeance. She swore to make them pay, to burn the Mercier legacy to the ground. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. At a glittering gala where enemies wear smiles like weapons, Vera and Dante's paths cross-and the war between them begins anew. But this isn't just a battle for revenge. This is a battle of wills, of pride, of something deeper-something darker. As Vera's hatred for Dante consumes her, a force she can't deny pulls her closer.

But what starts as a war of destruction turns into something far more perilous. In the fight to ruin him, Vera risks losing herself. In a world of lies, betrayal, and shattered loyalties, Vera must decide: hold fast to her hate and finish what was started, or surrender to the chaos that Dante brings with every stolen glance, every broken rule. When love is the battlefield, there are no victors-only those who survive the war.
