Valenna Strife.

She was a quiet one. Ever since she was a child she could get around with not a single person noticing her. She saw it as both a gift and a curse. Being the center of attention or having any attention on her was just not her cup of tea, to be able to go around unnoticed was amazing to her.

But, even though she swears her best friend is enough company, Valenna wants to be loved in a way get best friend can't give her, that is where her "curse" begins. Not many people notice her and how can she find someone to love her if no one sees her? What will happen when someone does finally notice her and give her the attention that she denies that she so desperately  craves?

I barely make it a few steps before I feel his hand clamp down on my hair, yanking me back with terrifying force. "Going somewhere, little girl?" "P-please let g- ahh! Please! H-Hurts me!" "Afraid, are we now, baby?" His voice is a snarl now, filled with fury. "L-leave m-me," tears sting my eyes, but I refuse to let them fall. I'm scared of him, scared of what he'll do to my friend, scared of what he'll do to me. His grip on my hair tightens and I wince, choking back a sob. "Oh, why? Don't you like my hands on you, baby?" He mocks hurt that instantly turns back into anger. "But you were fine when that fucker touched you, ain't that right?" Then he pulls a silver knife out of his suit, twirling it lazily between his ink-covered knuckles and my blood freezes at the sight of that psychotic grin. ***** People quaked with fear at the sound of his name and me along with them. He was Demetrios 'the God' Nikolayev and he was first in command of Russian mafia. He was a true psychopath who enjoyed hurting people, and I hated him for that. The worst thing - he owned me. "Try to accept the darkness, because from now on, it will be your only light." I tried so hard, but I couldn't understand it back then. How possibly can darkness be light? ***** This is not a vanilla romance but a dark, toxic, perverted, obsessive story. The book contains mature themes such as foul language, bdsm, sexual and abusive content, kinks, blood, manipulation, etc. Please keep that in mind.

His Serendipity by _LIREAL_
67 parts Ongoing Mature
She was a woman of grace and strength, deeply anchored in her faith and values. Her beauty wasn't in her appearance but in her devotion, her modesty a crown she wore with pride. She had preserved herself for a love that was true and lasting, one that would be earned by the right man. He was a man who craved fleeting pleasures, using charm and wealth to captivate women, never staying long enough for anyone to truly know him. Beneath the surface, he was consumed by a loneliness he couldn't escape, seeking fulfillment in empty distractions. Then she entered his life. From the moment he saw her pray, something inside him shifted. He had never seen devotion like hers, a quiet strength that radiated peace and certainty. Her faith, her sincerity, disarmed him in a way nothing else had. For the first time, he felt something deeper than desire-a longing for something real, something beyond the fleeting. Her presence, her example, made him question everything. She didn't try to change him; her actions spoke louder than words. Through her, he began to see the emptiness of the life he had been living and the possibility of a love that was pure, unwavering, and eternal. He wasn't drawn to her out of desire, but a deep yearning for redemption, for meaning. She didn't need him, yet her mere existence made him want to be better. In her, he found a love that could heal the restlessness in his soul, and through her, he discovered that true peace and fulfillment could only come from a love greater than the temporary-an unshakeable love, grounded in faith.

**** Mature content**** "You wanna know why I'm angry?" He said in between the kisses. "Because of you" He said as he continued and my body tensed and shivered. "Every time I think I have control over myself and decide to leave this place... to leave ... you. I stop and walk back like a puppy" He said turning me around now. "Every time I meet someone, I compare them to you. Every fucking time I remind myself that you're an enemy, I want you even more" he said and I knew that this was one of the hardest thing for him to do. He and neither I like to talk about how we are feeling or face reality. Yet he still did it. "What the fuck are you doing to me Mia Bella?" He whispered with his forehead on mine and our lips inches apart. "Kiss me" I replied • • • Mafia, drugs, weapons, and all the dangerous and abnormal you can think of is what Alexandra Salvatore has to deal with on daily basis.

The Fourth Horseman

40 parts Complete Mature

I was falling, cascading into the dark chasm of sin and desire. I was unhinged, wild and free, giving in to everything I wanted. I would not hold back tonight. I wanted to fuck him over and over, anywhere and everywhere. Taste him and kiss him. Completely surround myself with only Jay. I will do it all with Jay tonight and every night forward. I am his queen, his weakness, his carnal transgression. I will take him as my own and ride out this delusion with him come what may. A tiny voice in the back of my mind was scolding, cursing, pleading at me to come to my senses, realize the mistakes I was making and the repercussions I would face. I suffocated the whispers, murdered my rational logic in that moment. Death was swift for the girl in my mind looking down with a frown on my actions. I laughed again, knowing this would be my undoing, enjoying the unraveling of my sanity, leaving it in shards on the ground. Because I had made up my mind. I won't let go. ****TRIGGER ⚠️ WARNING This book contains mature content; including language, violence, sexual content, drugs and alcohol and a near rape scenario.
