24 parts Ongoing
Naomi "Ni" Johnson is an ordinary girl living in a small town. She has dreams of moving to the city and pursuing her passion for art. However, her life takes an unexpected and terrifying turn when she's kidnapped one evening by a mysterious and dangerous man named Adrian Blackwood. Adrian, a brooding and powerful figure in the criminal underworld, has been watching Ni for weeks. At first, his reasons for kidnapping her seem cold and calculated-he believes she's the key to settling a vendetta with her estranged family, who betrayed him years ago. Ni's family, once involved in shady dealings, has tried to stay out of Adrian's reach, but now he has found a way to get his revenge: by taking their daughter. In Adrian's secluded mansion, surrounded by forests and an icy lake, Ni is trapped. She tries to escape multiple times, but each time Adrian catches her, though he never harms her. Instead, he shows unexpected softness, an emotion she doesn't expect from a criminal like him. Ni soon learns that Adrian's life is far more complicated than it appears on the surface. As time passes, the tension between them grows. Adrian is torn-his plans of revenge are slipping away, replaced by a desire to protect Ni, to keep her close for reasons he cannot admit to himself. Meanwhile, Ni finds herself drawn to Adrian's intensity, his tortured past, and the flickers of vulnerability he shows only around her. She fights her feelings, determined not to fall for the man who has taken her freedom. But slowly, her fear turns to understanding, and understanding turns to love. Yet, danger lurks as Adrian's enemies close in. Ni must decide if she can truly trust Adrian or if their love is doomed from the start. Together, they'll have to face the ghosts of Adrian's past, and Ni will need to confront her own demons if they are to survive-and find happiness in the darkness.

(UNDER EXTREME CONSTRUCTION AND EDITING. I will let you know which chapters are updated and edited as I go, I will also be combining some chapters together so they are not so short.) [COMPLETED] Erin is a young woman, raised most of her life by a group of mercenaries, after running away from her orphanage at a young age. Since she could remember, she never believed her parents were really dead, and has been searching for them ever since she became part of the mercenary group. The deal to stay with the group so she could find her family was that she was to become a mercenary herself, in which she did, and excelled at. When Lotus, the Captains right hand man, was retiring, the Captain wanted to replace him with her. Lotus felt a woman was unfit to fill such a responsible position, and took his rage out on them, killing the Captain after a days battle. He banishes Erin, sending troops after her, for her head. However, she was smarter than that, and saw that coming. She travels with Rune, a man who saved her life during the previous days battle, reluctantly. Rune is a secret assassin for Queen Eiva, who has sent him on a mission to find out about this upcoming war, threatened by a group called the Pandoreos. He has his own secrets that not even the queen knows, however, Dakota, a wolf who can speak to Erin, can tell he's hiding something. Erin eventually struggles with her feelings toward Rune. When the threat of the Pandoreos worsens, Rune is called back to queen Eiva. Rune commands Erin to travel with Kier, a man who has a special hatred for these Pandoreos, and warn Queen Beatrice, and King Cecerion about the upcoming war, in hope for an alliance with Queen Eiva. That is, if the humans can stay one step ahead of the Pandoreos.

"I've been hurt worse trust me," I say, referring to him but I don't even think he knows. Although, judging by the look in his eyes... I think he does know. He got the reference. "Don't confuse platonic feelings with romantic ones Hope," Adrian says sternly. "Maybe you care about me. As a friend, but you don't love me. You throw that word around like it's nothing." "When have I thrown that word around?" I demand. "Probably with your one-week-lasting boyfriends." I let out a humorless laugh. That's really what he thinks? "I've never said I love you to anyone in a romantic way." I inhale sharply. "And for my fucking misfortune, the first guy I said it to had to be my bodyguard. ❦ Hope Ashford is used to getting her way. A rich spoiled girl who doesn't have any limits.

This is a world where your worth is as much as the colour of your blood. Akira is the queen's most trusted soldier and general. Being the highest ranked amongst others, she is ruthless in doing her job. She only has one weakness: she cannot see colours. The world only represents itself as black and white to her and she has learnt to use it to her advantage. She slashes people with her sword without even batting an eye - the blood splattered across is merely a liquid that holds no meaning to her. In the kingdom of Lucida, the people are divided based on the colour of their blood. Royalty bear white blood, noblemen take crimson, commoners live with blue while the servants, considered the lowest in the ranks, are left with yellow blood. No one is allowed to marry outside their ranks and no one ever dares to break the norm throughout the centuries. When the queen orders her to find the identity of the mysterious Shadow King, she sets out on a quest to find the real king. Her list is narrowed down to 7 men, all from different backgrounds. Blood has to be shed in order to confirm the king's identity but she has one problem: she cannot determine the truth with her own eyes.
