❛THEY WOULD TELL YOU OF A KING WHO STOLE ME HELPLESS FROM MY SUNSHINE GARDEN.❜ They won't tell you about the woman who came to him sublime, lily eyes and lily lips. A king does not ask permission from his prize, but she, oh she, she knelt, kissing my flower crown fingertips, and laid a kingdom at my feet. A Hades and Persephone retelling. ❛AND WHEN I PLACED MY DREAD HEART IN HIS PALM; HE CALLED IT A KEY AND ME A QUEEN.❜ rubyruins | all rights reserved ©

[01/07/2021] - [13/04/2023] "You can't keep going around like a fucking maniac and treating me like shit. That isn't how relationships work," Sophia's voice was havoc as she verbalized her emotions. "That isn't how we work..." Tired, vulnerable and agitated at not only him, but herself. How could she let herself get this far, in such little time? He looked down, ashamed, not wanting to respond. His heart felt like it was beating faster than it should've. "I forgot how it felt to love you." As soon as those words were uttered from Sophia's lips, his world broke apart. Gone, in just a matter of seconds. - - - When Sophia Adam moves to a new town, she wishes nothing more than a boring, new life, to separate herself from her past. Moving meant completing university and getting a clerkship with a judge. Moving meant making refreshing new friends, and meeting a mysterious guy that seems hell-bent on getting to know her. To Sophia, moving to a new town was everything she imagined and more. She just didn't expect her past to follow.

To the outside world it was a cult of brainwashed victims all under the spell of Kade Rogers, but to her it was home. That was up until a series of events that led up to her escape. If only fate wasn't so cruel as to lead her away from one monster and put her directly into the hands of another. Now, with a new sense of determination, Josie explores the world outside of The Colony and learns the hard way that trust is a dangerous weapon of destruction. Trying to lead a normal life starting college proves to be impossible after meeting Nico Blaine. He was everything she was suppose to stay away from. But when Josie lay's eyes on the tattooed beauty, she can't help it. What starts out as a innocent infatuation turns into a twisted tale of betrayal. .. . . . . . . . . . - Dark romance - Explicit sexual content - Mature themes - Criminal - Villain - Anti-hero #1 goodgirlxbadboy #1 darklove

To create. That's what Gianna Alexie wanted to do ever since she was a little Gia. After graduating college, the woman vowed to create a book for the world to love, though she knew she'll be needing help. Help came in the form of her mentor, Keenan Travino, a man more than a decade her senior with thin patience, a love for cigarettes and bourbon, and as many issues as the clever tricks up his sleeves. - COMPLETED BUT UNEDITED - 1ST DRAFT - PAPERBACK NOW AVAILABLE

Astal vient de déposer ses valises à Trost. Dans l'anonymat de cette bourgade où personne ne l'attend, la jeune femme n'espère qu'une chose : se reconstruire et trouver la force d'un nouveau départ. Rapidement, ses pas l'amènent à pousser la porte d'une boutique de thé où elle rencontre son futur patron, un homme taciturne à la parole aussi tranchante que son regard. A première vue, leurs relations chaotiques ne ressemblent en rien au nouveau départ tant espéré. Leur entêtement peut-il vraiment faire mentir la maxime selon laquelle le thé unit les cœurs ? A moins que ce ne soient les fantômes de leur passé ... ----- Un petit "Livaï x Oc" sans aucune prétention, pour le plaisir, pour se dégourdir les doigts sur le clavier, mais surtout ... pour faire plaisir (ces demoiselles se reconnaîtront). Les personnages ne m'appartiennent pas (hormis l'OC), l'image est libre de droits. Je précise que cette FF est tout à fait accessible à ceux qui ne connaissent pas l'univers de SNK

A late-night encounter, the mysterious death of a loved one, a weapon hunted by both heroes and villains, an unwanted partnership, secrets, hatred, lust, love, betrayal. None of this had been what you were expecting when leaving your apartment that night. Cover art: @tgomeyes For those of you who have gone through many different bookworm stages in your lives, you might notice that I took some inspiration (primarily in the first couple of chapters), from the NA novel, House of Earth and Blood. Although the stories will be very different, I figured I'd point it out in case people take notice.
