I thought dating an older man meant safety. Stability. Love. But Dominic Blackwood doesn't love like other men. He loves harder. Darker. And when he wants you... He never, ever lets go. "They told me older men love better. Nobody warned me they love darker." Trigger Warnings: toxic relationships, manipulation, obsession, age gap, slow-burn tension, emotional dependency.

Everyone fears Major Alexander Draven. At twenty-nine, he's the youngest Major to command an elite operations camp buried deep in the burning sands of Iraq - a man born from a dynasty of power and politics. His father runs corporations and elections alike. Alexander? He runs a battlefield like an empire - cold, precise, merciless. No soldier crosses him. No enemy survives him. No one touches him - until her. Lyra Brooks was never supposed to end up here. She's just the pretty army doctor with a smile too perfect to trust. Lyra knows how to stitch up bullet wounds but not her own scars. She keeps her heart locked away behind sarcasm and late-night drinks. But here she is, buried in blood and sand as a Field Surgical Resident with the U.S. Army Medical Corps. One drunken night. A bar miles from base. A man everyone fears and a woman who pretends she doesn't fear anything at all. One night of brutal, wordless heat neither of them ever mentioned again. Until now. When the two pink lines appear in the harsh white light of the medical tent, Lyra knows one thing for certain - Alexander Draven cannot find out. Not now. Not here, never. But war doesn't care about secrets. Danger doesn't care about mistakes. And Major Draven? He does not like being kept in the dark.

The bell to the door of the small coffee shop rang out, alerting any and all staff members that another costumer had walked into the small, coffee smelling store. I small sigh leave my mouth as I wipe my hands against the deep blue dress that was our uniform. " Katelyn table nine!" my boss yells at me, a tall, slim woman with short grey locks. I plaster a fake smile on my face at the bossy old woman before I make my way to the table. " Hello sir, what can I get you today?" I ask with a light smile as I take out my note pad and pen only to look up and see Mr. Slade Ash, or Bone. "Coffee, black, no sugar." he says as his forest green eyes flash up to me. "Okay sir, I'll have your order here in a moment." I say politely, my voice timid, unsure, and flustered. Who would think that just a look for one of the scariest men in the world would send this safe, dazed feeling inside of me. Moments later his coffee is made. I pick up the cup with a light smile and make my way towards his table to see a beautiful, black haired beauty sitting in front of him. At first glance you would have guessed they were a couple, but as I say his coffee down the similarity between them couldn't have been greater. The different was very minimal. Her structure was slightly smaller, her nose was smaller with an array of freaked spotting across it. Her hair was longer, obviously. She was a bit shorter than him, her lips were fuller, and the obvious assets were more defined. She was ,once again, beautiful to say the least. ---------

"I fucking hate you," I grumbled, reaching for my coat off the coat rack. As I go to open the door and leave, it's pushed back, hard---and all I feel is the warmth of his body on my back. "You hate me, huh?" He whispers against my neck, his hot breath fanning where I tried to cover up his tattooed kiss. I manage to turn around, his hands on either side of my face. My breathing faltered, my heartbeat quickening, my chest rising and falling as his eyes flicked to my lips every chance he got. "What's that saying again?" Jesse trails rhetorically, brushing his nose along my neck. "There's a thin line between love and hate?" (18+ Mature)
