Adrian grabbed my chin, his eyes suddenly dark. I felt a little bit of satisfaction, if only for a moment.

"You are mine, Sophia. Nothing, not a petty crush or your stubbornness, is going to change that." He rubbed my lower lip with his thumb. "Everything you once believed to be yours is mine now. Your heart, your body and soul all belong to me. I have you for the rest of your days. We will marry, have children and rule the empire I created together. Do you want to know how I know this? Because you can't refuse me."
............

Sophia is your ordinary high school senior, trying to change her life for the better through her music. She has no idea that her world is about to change. Confronted by a young wizard named Louis, she is taken out of her bleak world and thrown into a magical kingdom where she is forced to fight for her own heart. The King of Kilader has had Sophia in his sights for months, and now that she is in his kingdom he will do anything to make her his own. With Louis by her side, Sophia tries to find a way to change her fate, only to find love in an unexpected place. 

Will she be able to escape the grasp of the ruthless King? Or will she be forced to leave the first love she has ever known? 

One thing is for sure, her heart is no longer her own.

She went to her room and locked herself inside the room. She slowly sat down and started crying, ''why does this always happen to me?" she said while putting her fingers in hairs. "I hate myself," she said, crying. Just then she got up and grabbed her sharp nail trimmer "I will end this" she said and almost cut off her vein, when she heard a very strange whisper. "Hey don't young Lady killing yourself is a sin" she turned and the nail trimmer fell off her hand. "Who is it?" she said but the voice did not come back, she looked inside the mirror she brought from her deceased relative. She watched her eyes, it was like her own reflection was looking at her, just than she felt her green eyes turning to electric blue, she got startled, then she turned and walked towards her bed, "It's like I am having hallucinations, can't die properly even " she said to herself and went to her bed. ****** She got up late in the morning; she didn't want to go to school. She turned to the other side of her bed. Still eyes closed she looked for a pillow but instead her hand touched something very hard, it was like a human arm, the manly odor was surrounding, first she thought she was dreaming, She hold him softly and hugged him. He was snoring faintly.

His light brown hair were fallen over his forehead, His broad chest was moving up and down as he breaths, when she realized that it was not dream, she got up and screamed. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh". An ordinary love story? Think again.

17 parts Ongoing Mature
Liliana has spent her life running from the darkness that once consumed her. She has worked hard to rebuild herself, burying the scars from her past-both physical and emotional-beneath layers of routine and solitude. But no matter how far she runs, the shadows of her trauma linger, resurfacing as nightmares and fractured memories. As her 30th birthday approaches, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. Haunted by a mysterious past, a protector who hides in the shadows has been watching over her for more than a decade. Adrian, a shifter whose own transformation was born out of pain and brutality, has pledged to protect Liliana at all costs. But his love for her has grown into something darker-an obsession. Torn between his desire to protect her from the men who once hurt her and his fear that she will choose another, Adrian's grip tightens as Liliana's past threatens to return. With unknown enemies hunting her, a dangerous secret lying dormant within, and Adrian's possessive love lurking in the background, Liliana's fight for control over her life grows more desperate. The line between protector and predator begins to blur as Adrian's obsession deepens, and Liliana's true power edges closer to the surface. In this haunting tale of love, trauma, and the supernatural, Darkness Between Us explores the fragile boundaries between protection and possession, the lingering grip of fear, and the power that lies hidden within the most broken of souls. Will Liliana reclaim her life, or will she become a prisoner of both her past and the man who claims to love her? Jp
