At age 30, publications editor Kelsie Taylor is slowly losing hope in finding her fairytale romance. The stories of the women around her who experience abuse and heartbreak along with her own experiences have made her cautious about entering a relationship. Her dream of finding forever love as a young adult is yet to actualize because none of the suitors she encountered so far have made a striking first impression. "I know that with Jamaican men I might have to kiss a few frogs before I find a prince but right now mi feel like a only frog deh here. Most of dem nuh worth more than a hi," she says to a man she only had brief, casual interactions over the past few weeks. He chuckles at her disclosure. "Yuh mean yuh just nuh kiss di right frog yet. And why yuh feel like yuh need a prince or a knight? You are no damsel in distress. You don't need saving." She shrugs at his observation, not sure how to respond. "You just need to get out of your way. I can bet you have written off men with a lot of potential with just one glance. But people are multilayered. You have to peel back the surface to get a better look at what's underneath before writing off a person," he adds. His advice might be just what she needs to guide her past the hurt she's witnessed and take the leap of faith to find true love. ⚠️Trigger warning: This story contains acts of violence and sexual abuse.

✾mature✾ ❝If I were to go back and do it all differently, I would. You see, I just have so many new ideas. I would pick you up, and kiss all along your body starting here.❞ His thumb caresses my bottom lip, and travels down the side of my neck, before making its way down the center of my chest. His touch makes me tremble. My pulse quickens as he sends his fingers further down my stomach. ❝And I would end here.❞ He says, his hand stopping in between my legs. I can't help but moan at his sudden action. But it isn't enough, I need more. ❝And then I would bend you across the table, and fuck you until you're screaming my name.❞ His dirty words make me feel weak, I have no power when it comes to him and I know it. ❝So do it.❞ ❀❀❀ *ongoing* Isabelle Davis has had her fair share of losses in life, but what happens when all the ghosts from her past return?

In a world of monsters and gods, the Lupus Deus is the one being no one wants among them, especially not the gods that wronged him. Vivian Grey is as average as any werewolf comes, or at least that's what she believes growing up until she is confronted with the fact that her mate is the monster she heard stories about growing up. It doesn't take her long to realize that he is as cruel as whispered, as unfeeling as he is complex, and far more monstrous than believed. When push comes to shove she'll have to learn to navigate her own strength or risk being drowned in his. As a war between her mate and the gods that made him take place, love, might just easily become a double-edged sword.
