That is until she meets Alex Idris, a stranger with great taste and way too much information about Cirice. 
Will she believe that claims he has for her, or will she end him just as she did to the last person who claimed to know about her?

Men of Iron - Book 3: Hunted by Her Heat by InknVengence

When a girl with fire in her veins storms into Ash Flats, she doesn't come to beg. She comes barefoot, bleeding, and furious - with a photo of her sister's attacker and a demand for blood. But when her rage collides with the silence of the Men of Iron, she becomes more than grief with a voice. She becomes the spark none of them can contain. Knuckles doesn't waste words. Doesn't bend. Doesn't break. As the Forge Master, he's the one who turns fire into steel - the hammer that tempers, the iron that endures. But the girl isn't afraid of his silence. She's afraid of what happens when he looks at her like he's already claimed her. She burns in fury. He waits in silence. And the more they fight to stay apart, the more they ignite something neither can control. But grief doesn't fade quietly. And the enemy hunting her doesn't care if she's branded or bound. In a world built on blood, fire, and ghosts - sometimes the most dangerous thing isn't the war outside the gates... It's the girl who dares the Forge Master to burn.

Dangerous Waters [Secondo x River] by Dani_Phantom-

After losing his beloved ghoul Lake to a mysterious illness, Papa Emeritus the second needs to summon a new water ghoul. But when he lays his eyes on the newest addition to his band, he's shocked to the core. River looks exactly like Lake, except for the feral glint in his eyes, which is nothing like the gentle water ghoul he's used to. Will he be able to build a connection with River, who seems to hate him for unknown reasons, or will he lose yet another ghoul he's slowly getting fond of? _________ ❗️Disclaimer❗️ Please note that Secondo is in his twenties in this story, because I'm way too young to write down the brain chemistry of an old man I don't own any of the characters or their names. This fanfiction is not about the people who "play" the ghouls and Papa, it's only about the personalities that they represent. There is no AI used in this book. The whole story is written by me and comes from my own imagination. Started: 12-28-2024 Finished: 03-12-2025

One Last Task by ace_th_gay

(I'm actually going to publish this series on amazon if you want a copy) In a world where shadows hold secrets and systems control lives, two paths begin to converge-one forged in secrecy, the other in curiosity. Red Snake has spent her life inside the system, trained to follow orders, bury emotion, and survive. But when whispers of rebellion surface and her own identity begins to crack, she starts to question everything she's been taught. Especially when the truth might cost her everything-including her life. Meanwhile, Haven and her tight-knit group of friends-Mason, Sam, and Alex-aren't part of the system... but they're about to uncover it. Armed with scattered documents, theories scribbled across Mason's bedroom walls, and drinks from their favorite café, they begin to unravel a hierarchy more sinister than they could have imagined: Council → Mr. Price → Staff → Operatives → Students. As Red Snake plans her escape and Haven's group closes in on the truth, their worlds inch closer to collision. But in a game of manipulation and buried pasts, not everyone wants to be saved. A story of found family, hidden pasts, and the price of freedom-perfect for fans of twisty conspiracies, layered characters, and slow-burning revolution.

The Day I Live by orpheusvamp

(READ ALL BEFORE STARTING BOOK) This is unedited. After the death of a 24 year old girl she's reborn, but the world around her seems different. Not only does she have an entirely different family, she sees... dead people. (And maybe more!) Her family claimed she was crazy and a liar for saying she could see ghosts. It was a disgrace to their family and the family name. So, she was ordered to keep quiet about it. She couldn't say a word about her occurrences to anyone. Maybe she is crazy, but the events that unfold when she meets a group of "demons" help explain why she is who she is. All she had to do was find an abandoned crypt in the middle of the woods.
