✦ 𝑩𝑶𝑶𝑲 𝟐 ✦ Aurelia Adrian was never meant to cross paths with a monster. The daughter of the ruthless King Adrian, she was brave, stubborn, and dangerously curious. But curiosity has a price. One night, it led her straight into the hands of Zayden Volkov a man feared by the world, a walking nightmare whose name was whispered in terror. The world called him a monster, but monsters have limits. Zayden Volkov does not. What begins as a mistake soon turns into an obsession so dark that kingdoms will tremble, blood will be spilled, and the world will witness that his obsession is not merely dark... it is the darkest. ______ His hands were wrapped around her waist, his lips near her ear. "Tell me the truth. What are you doing here?" She took a shaky breath. "I am searching for a criminal. People from our kingdom have been disappearing day by day. I'm trying to find who's responsible." A dark chuckle escaped his lips. "Interesting." His hold tightened even more. "Then you did your job too well." The girl's heart pounded. "What do you mean?" The man leaned closer. "The criminal you're looking for..." His voice dropped to a dangerous whisper. "...is the one standing behind you." A cold laugh echoed through the forest. She struggled against him. "Let me go, you bastard!" "Brave little thing, aren't you?" he said, amused. Before she could scream again, he did something. The world around her began to spin. Her vision blurred. Darkness consumed her sight. And then everything went black as her body went limp in his arms. The man looked down at the unconscious girl in his arms. He reached for the black veil covering her face. As the fabric slipped away, the moonlight fell upon her features. His dark eyes studied her carefully. Then a slow smile spread across his lips. A dangerous smile. The forest fell silent. Without taking his eyes off her, he spoke. "𝙎𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙚.

"Please I need to leave." I said my eyes watering as I stared into his cold eyes. "You arent fucking leaving this house Lia." He said before leaving me handcuffed to the bed. ♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡ ✦ "𝐀 𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐠𝐮𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐣𝐨𝐛 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝." ✦ ♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡ ⋆. 𐙚˚࿔ Bodyguards Obsession 𝜗𝜚˚⋆ I slowly pushed myself upright in the bed, my breath catching as I looked at him. He stood by the window, his back to me, staring outside. "Did you think I wouldn't fucking find out?" he said, his voice low and rough, yet unnervingly calm. Fear curled through me. My hands tightened around the blanket as I fought to keep from shaking in fear. He knows... "That you're fucking pregnant." His voice rose slightly as he turned to face me, his dark eyes locking onto mine. The look in them made my stomach twist. I knew then that whatever he had planned for me, wasn't going to end well. ♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡ Lia is a girl who tries her hardest not to fall apart when being hurt wherever she goes.

Five years ago, I stood at the altar in white, ready to vow myself to Ronan Vale. My protector, my obsession, my forever. Until a gunshot shattered my world. I survived. But he left. No explanations. No promises. Just a letter as cold as his silence, telling me we were done. Now I'm walking down another aisle. This time to a man I despise. A man who threatens my family, who wears power like a weapon. I swore Ronan was gone forever. I swore I'd never forgive him. But on the day I'm meant to become someone else's bride... Ronan comes back. He stole me once with love. Now he'll steal me again with fire. He says I'm his. He says he'll burn the world before he lets me go again. And the worst part? I should hate every second of being in his house again. But my heart remembers what my pride refuses to. And that terrifies me more than Ronan Vale ever could.

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.

•THE POSSESSION I thought it was over. I thought that I finally got rid of him. For good. New place, new life, new people. That's what they say. No one told me my nightmare was waiting for me there, ready to drag me back to his hell with open arms. Gray eyes that shine ominously at the sight of my tears. A gaze so hungry for my pain and a soul that feeds on my fear. He refuses to let me go, and my begging only makes him hungrier for more. Killian Voss. My tormentor, my tamer, and my own, personal monster. I have to run away. The only problem? My monster loves to chase. •THE OWNER Mine. Since the moment I set sight on those eyes that radiated with life, I knew I wanted to ruin them. I knew I wanted to break him till he was nothing but my property. A little doll I own.

He held the gun against her temple. She pounded on his chest, fists flying. "You killed my father! You... you monster! I hate you!" He didn't flinch. After a moment, his patience snapped. "Enough!" he shouted. "No more words." "Yes... I killed your father. I did." "Stop screaming!"he barked. He grabbed her jaw, forcing her to look at him. "Now... it's time to get married. Let's go. The priest is waiting. We don't want to make him wait, do we... hmm?" She spat on his face. He just smirked. Licked the spit from his lips, rolling his tongue. "Mmm... tasty," he said, voice low. "You should've kissed me directly. No worries... we'll do it after our wedding." He leaned closer. "Do you want to see his dead body... hmm? One last look at your father?" She whispered, trembling, "Please... let me go." " You don't want to? Okay... let me throw his body away then." "No! I... I want to see him, please. He is my father !" "Good girl," he said, smirk still dark. "Now... come on. The priest is waiting." 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘨𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘰𝘮. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. 𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦.

In a world where power means everything, she becomes the obsession of a man everyone fears, the devil himself. Escape was never an option. Falling for him? That was her biggest mistake.

To them, Clara is the missing piece. The daughter they've been waiting for. The one they've been preparing for. Every room is made for her. Every rule is meant to shape her. And every smile hides something sick. Ezra. Calm, calculating, always three steps ahead. No matter how careful Clara is, he sees through her. Every lie. Every escape attempt. Every flicker of rebellion. Silas is distant and cold, but dangerous in his silence. Silas keeps his distance-but when he looks at her, it's like he sees straight through. And Lucian... Lucian's the gentle one.The one who brings her hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and brushes her hair. The one who says this is all for her own good. Lucian is soft-spoken and kind... almost like he wants her to believe this could be real. But it isn't. They don't want her freedom. They want her obedience. Her love. Her role. They call it family. She calls it a nightmare. But if Clara wants to survive, she might have to play along. Even if it means pretending to love her captors. _________________________________________ Author's Note: This is a story I've been wanting to post and now I've finally done it.

"You're shaking, Pip." Adam laughed, looking down on me, his eyes hungrily scanning my body. "It's Jude! Don't call me, Pip, when we're fucking." I warned him, groaning out of annoyance because he simply couldn't stop calling me that stupid name. Though, it made him laugh even more. ••• In a world where losing means more than just defeat, some choices can't be undone and some relationships don't survive the fight.
