" I c-can't understand anything," I said slowly. I just wish this comes out to be a fake thing. All of this a joke. I helplessly looked towards him. He was quiet and looked emotionless.

From a young age, he was diagnosed as a psychopath, with a propensity for violence and manipulation that set him apart from his peers. While most children were learning to share and play nicely, Paris was already plotting his next move, studying the world around him with an intensity that bordered on madness. Sable, on the other hand, was the epitome of normalcy. She exuded kindness and compassion in everything she did, her innocence shining through even in the darkest of times. But she couldn't escape Paris's gaze; he watched her from afar for years, his obsession with her growing stronger each day. And yet she accepted him with little hesitation when he finally emerged from the shadows, embracing his twisted ways as if they were just another part of who he was.

A novel from the world of "Taboo." What was James Delaney doing during all those time gaps in "Taboo"? Here's my take on how he spent his days. Everything proceeds according to the Devil Delaney's plan, even love. Or does it? Starts during Countess Musgrove's ball in Episode Four. Interwoven throughout the rest of Season One.

The Infinity Coven Trilogy_A Dark Temptation (Volume 1) by nabiilah25

She knew he meant trouble. Yet she loved him. When seventeen-year-old Quinn Sophia Richards leaves New York to live with her grand-aunt, Helen Deveraux in Blue Haven, Georgia, she is confronted with a dark life changing revelation : her whole life was a big lie to hide the fact that she is a powerful Campbell witch who needs to fulfill her part of the prophecy before it's too late. She meets a mysterious handsome stranger who seems to know a great deal about her family's past. But can she trust this dangerous manipulating stranger whose dark side threaten to consume her... *** It was the most captivating pair of blue eyes she had ever encountered in her life. "Hello Quinn," he murmured huskily, eyes locked on her. The fact that he knew her name did not matter to her. It just felt right the way his full lips voiced it. "Hi, did you see a fair blond guy in his middle twenties passing by?" she muttered, still amazed with his hypnotic stare. Flexing a muscle in his high cheekbone, he raised one long eyebrow playfully. Something in the atmosphere was telling her that he knew the answer. "Boyfriend?" he teased, eyes locked broodingly upon her. Taken aback with his question, she only stared back. It was true that Tom Willis did not appear an ounce a driver with his casual clothing and his age. But he wasn't to find out. Her heart was already fluttered with his devastating looks. "Well, I can definitely help you." He leaned closer and she took in a deep breath, inhaling his overpowering masculine scent. "But on one condition." He paused, increasing the electrifying temsion between them. " In the right time, I'll take something from you in return," his profoundly blue eyes twinkling with devilish intentions. "And you won't be allowed to refuse." "Whatever you want," she murmured, fluttering her long lashes. Her mind warned her to run away as suddenly he seemed dangerous. Except she didn't. *** Hungry for more? Read the parts of Infinity Coven !
