"Come in." A gruff voice speaks out in response to my hesitant knock. Anxiety kicks in the moment I can hear him.
Oh, come on.
Pushing open the door to the lion's den, I find myself immediately met with a pair of piercing, angry green eyes.
I swallow.
"What do you want?" He snaps.

Hardwired For Him✓
Confidence is a hell of a drug, and for Skylar Evans, the high is magnificent-but the comedown is a total fucking bitch. It starts with the catastrophic snap of a heel and ends with a face-plant into the expensive, custom-tailored chest of a man who looks like he owns the sunrise-and probably the bank you keep your meager savings in. Fresh out of the Ivy League, armed with elite coding skills and a caffeine addiction she refuses to apologize for, Skylar wants one thing only. Control. Over her career. Her future. Her heart. Then she meets Carlos D'Artagnan. He is the devil in a bespoke suit. A predator who breathes strategy and exhales liquid heat, wearing a smile that promises heaven while his silver gaze drags you straight to hell. He is elegance sharpened into a weapon, a towering monolith of power built on a foundation of secrets and scars. The moment his eyes lock onto hers, the air in the room doesn't just thin-it catches fire. In that one, soul-stripping look, Skylar realizes the encryption on her heart has been bypassed; her carefully guarded life is about to be dismantled, piece by agonizing piece. One reckless encounter drags her into his orbit of corporate warfare and whispered betrayals. Carlos thought he had buried the monster he used to be, but the past is a debt that always collects. Now, it's rising to reclaim him, and Skylar is the only collateral he's not willing to lose.Lengkap

Bossy Vibes
It was a sinner's suicide for anyone to work at Coopers Incorporation. It was no surprise that people aimed to stray far from the Devil known as Mr Elijah Cooper. Cold, demanding, and rough, he ruled over everything with an iron grip and a calculating gaze. His power to tear anyone apart and shatter them into a million little pieces like sheets of glass was intimidating and those that got too close to Elijah, burned and perished in fogs of smoke. Lady Fate watched mischievously as she toyed with her manipulative strings, placing Nora Jones into the centre of Cooper's life. A simple woman with a simple life, Nora was just looking for a job to earn some money. Life was to be normal, or so she thought, as Nora walked into her office building and came face to face with the person, she'd come to realise was Satan. Being pure and sweet, Nora was a tangible taste of what Elijah had never experienced and so began a hectic turn of events. Coursed with plots and twists, dramatic turns and suspicious dealings, Elijah and Nora would embark on a multitude of problems, but two questions would arise within their story of the unknown: Could the Devil seductively tempt Nora Jones to join him in his rule or would she too perish and burn from the torture and torment he'd subject her to? --x-- Copyright 2021, all rights are reserved by Angela_salvator.

All Yours
"Please," I whisper, my voice trembling as tears prick the corners of my eyes. "Please don't hurt me." The words barely escape my throat, fragile and desperate. He studies me for a moment, tilting his head slightly, almost as if he's amused by my plea. Then he scoffs, the sound sharp and mocking. "Why would I want to do that?" he murmurs, his voice smooth but carrying a dark undertone that chills me. He takes a step forward, and instinctively, I step back. "I've just found you..." He pauses, his gaze dragging over my face like a predator sizing up its prey. "And now you're mine." Aurora Evans leads a life of simplicity. Eat, work, sleep-her unchanging regimen is her sanctuary, and she has no intention of altering it. But what unfolds when a shadowy figure, lurking beyond her windows, takes an insidious interest in her? One glance at her in a café ensnares him, rendering him captivated, his singular ambition becoming clear: to claim her as his own. Aurora's attempts to escape his shadowy games are futile, especially in the cloak of night when he emerges, weaving his spell under the cover of darkness. He teases, entices, and pushes her perilously close to her breaking point. Her resolve is to distance herself as much as possible. Yet, fate has a cruel sense of irony. When she is abruptly dismissed from her previous job, she unwittingly lands a position working for him-as his assistant-entangling her in a web she can no longer evade. *A STALKER ROMANCE* #1 in "assistant" 12/23/24 #1 in "criminal" 3/8/25Lengkap
