58 parts Complete
A supernatural romance with twisted pasts, magic, psychics, and murder. And yeah, high school drama. "Pretty much a Mr. Badboy & Girl story but with literal magic and witches involved." - The Author of This Book ~ When Bethany Harlow's parents force her to volunteer at their local Dared Insane Asylum, she's forced to lie to all her friends about her after-school whereabouts. Zachary Jaxston was the reason she didn't want anyone to know where she spent her free time. He was the talk of the town four years ago, and she knew that if her volunteering were to be public news, his popularity would rise again. Everyone from her high school would mock her for hanging out with The Mother Murdered & Hallucinator. But he wasn't as crazy as he made people believe. Bethany was determined to find out the real reason Zachary was admitted into a mental institution. He didn't seem like a guy who could kill, especially not his own mother. However, her determination led her straight into the discovery of Zachary's supernatural abilities-that could in fact potentially hurt Bethany. But when she found out Zach was a male witch, a wizard, a portal to all things supernatural opened in her mind. She even made a few discoveries about herself and her family, the Harlow's. Slowly, together, they explore all the possibilities of magic. But when Bethany has a freak accident and almost kills a guy, their whole world flips upside down. Now, Bethany, Zach, and the rest of the Harlow family have to figure out a way to escape the dark and save Bethany. Will they be able to do it before it's too late? Or will Bethany become on of the endarkened? ~ ❝You should be scared of me.❞ ❝I know. But I'm not.❞ ❝I could hurt you.❞ ❝But you won't.❞ ❝You don't know that.❞ ❝But . . .

Temptation's Fire: Dancing with the Demon King (Book 1 Sinful Trilogy) ONC

30 parts Complete Mature

Being in love with a demon was the last thing on my wishlist. But somehow, my mundane existence took a supernatural turn, pulling me into a world I never imagined. As an ordinary girl with a typical routine and friends who were blissfully unaware, I found myself entangled in a reality where the extraordinary was my new normal. Despite the chaos, I couldn't help but feel drawn to this dark, mysterious being, who challenged everything I thought I knew about love and life. Our connection defied logic, yet it felt irresistibly right. Every encounter with him revealed new layers of complexity, making me question my boundaries and desires. In his presence, I discovered a strength within myself that I never knew existed. He had a sensuous touch, a forbidden elixir, and his lips were so sinfully sweet that I craved them day in and night out. I knew the danger of even just sharing one kiss. Yet, I couldn't help myself. Each stolen moment with him felt like a dance on the edge of darkness, thrilling and perilous all at once. Our love is a delicious sin, a tantalizing blend of passion and peril that consumed me completely and this is my story of how I ran the risk of tempting fate while dancing with a demon.
