Lucia Maranzano She's the picture of innocence-quiet, kind, and haunted by a past she keeps buried beneath a fragile smile. Love was never in her plans, especially not with a man like him. Roman Di Facio Billionaire. Ex-mafia. A man carved from violence and regret. He once believed love was for the pure, and he was anything but. But the moment he sees her, something shifts. Something dangerous. She's fighting her demons. He's running from his sins. Neither expected the collision. He once took lives. Now he saves them. She once trusted no one. Now she's trusting him. And in the middle of the darkness, they find something neither thought they'd ever deserve- Love.

Sugar's addicting. So is she. Graham Davis has two addictions: Hockey-and Gracie Daniels. (Not that he knows it yet.) At St. Brown University, Gracie Daniels is the golden girl. Blonde ponytail, perfect smile, always saying yes. So when she's asked to manage PR for the hockey team, she agrees-hoping to help thaw their notoriously icy captain. But Graham Davis doesn't melt. He's distant, guarded, and doesn't need help from a pink-sweater-wearing perfectionist... until he starts noticing things he shouldn't. Skipped meals. Covered bruises. Flinches too small to be accidental. Gracie is sweet, bright, and hiding more than anyone knows. And Graham can't stop looking.

Innocent, childish, she walked into the grand halls... unaware she had just caught the eye of the ruthless king. From that moment, she would no longer be just a girl-she would become HIS OBSESSION. King Adrian sat on his throne, dark and terrifying. The hall trembled; heads bowed, no one dared meet his eyes. Then the gates opened. Guards dragged a small, trembling girl to his feet. "Your Majesty... we found her roaming the palace," they said. Thrown to the floor, Sophia looked up at king, voice shaking. "I... I just wanted to see the palace..." Everyone flinched at his gaze-but she dared to meet the king's eyes. And in that moment... she became his obsession.

I might be a soft and delicate woman on the outside, but my brain packs a whole lot of dangerous power on the inside.

He wears scars like armor. She wears confidence like a weapon. And in a town that believes in soulmates... they never stood a chance. Void: I'm the ruthless President of the Savage Sinners MC. Feared, respected, and untouchable. On the outside, I'm all dominance and control. On the inside, I'm convinced no woman could ever want me.

The kingdom is bleeding, and war is no longer coming - it's here. Rogues rise under one banner. Her father's. Villages burn, packs fall, and the Lycan King is out for blood. Then she appears - shackled, silent, defiant. A rogue. A prisoner. A mystery. Kalowna Vaekhar doesn't tolerate weakness. He conquers it. But something about her makes his instincts snarl and his wolf still. She's too composed for someone broken. Too dangerous for someone without a wolf. Too tempting for a king who swore to never lose control again. He should execute her. Instead, he locks her behind gold and steel and watches the storm gather in her eyes. Something ancient stirs in her bones. Something forbidden. And the more she awakens, the more his empire begins to crack. She's not just part of the war. She's the key to ending it. Or destroying everything he was born to protect. "You're a rogue," he says, voice low and filled with contempt. "And I despise everything that makes you one." She lowers her gaze, voice barely a whisper: "I am what they made me... broken and lost."

Girls like her weren't supposed to fall for boys like him. She was too soft, too sweet, and he was too angry. Paul would hurt her; it was inevitable. But he didn't want to. He never wanted to. And that was all that really mattered. • • • | the twilight saga | [ paul lahote x oc ] [ © -Vanillarain13 ]
