When the faeries call by MJonesAuthor

20 year old Raven Love lives under the alias of Robin Kincaid, a young woman living a life that's somehow far from normal and yet she hides behind a picket fence with her party-loving friend in tow. After stashing her memories away inside of her head Raven has had to move to the city of Yvres, a place filled with a turmoil that she could never have imagined. On the run from an organisation that wants her dead as well as trying to hide from the rest of her past she finally thinks that Yvres might be the one place where she's safe. Turns out her hopes don't exactly pan out and she must eventually face her fears, own up to her responsibility and face the call that has her forever trapped. Then she meets Asher Ravendale, someone who seems to know far too much about her but is equally as inquisitive as he is knowledgeable. He brings some fun to her unusually drab life and could just be the one to help her out of this mess that's drowning her. But Asher has secrets of his own, secrets that he isn't exactly authorised to tell her, but what happens when the enemy shows up, willing to throw the world into a tailspin just to have the last laugh. Raven needs to put the last piece into the puzzle, unaware that she is that piece, the piece that must solve everything despite not fitting the mould of a typical Faerie Warrior, a Kinari, a solider of light. The last Kinari, with the call of the Ouri drawing her closer to where she needs to be; calling her to become what she needs to be in order to face her greatest enemy.

The Caretaker He Bought by puffy_1304

"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)

Irresistible Sin... by Aynahha

Eva never thought her father's decision to send her to live with her uncle Damien for college would turn her world upside down. The distance from home seemed ideal at first-until she stepped into Damien's house and realized how dangerously close she would be to the one man who had always been a constant in her life. Damien, a successful and charismatic businessman, has always seen Eva as family-but that was before she grew into a stunning, independent woman. Now, every glance, every touch between them feels charged with an electric tension neither can deny. Forbidden desire simmers beneath the surface, threatening to consume them both. As the days pass, their attraction intensifies in ways that neither can control. What starts with heated glances and lingering moments quickly escalates into something far more dangerous. Torn between guilt and longing, they find themselves unable to resist the burning desire pulling them closer. Each stolen moment feels like a sin, but it's one they can't walk away from. Caught in a web of passion, secrecy, and a love that defies everything they've ever known, Eva and Damien must face the inevitable question: Can they fight the pull of their irresistible desire, or will they surrender to it, no matter the cost?

The Immortal Quartet (First Draft Beta Reader Version) by AlexaKeiArt

Talented violinist Wren Cotter is scouted for a transfer from her university to an elite private academy. All seems good and well until she meets her fellow students. Vampires and magic? Such things may seem intimidating, yet Wren continues to stay true to herself and strive to become a renowned composer, doing everything in her power to ignore the fact that she now lives in a den of supernatural beings. Though as the days go by, she gets closer to those around her, eventually finding herself receiving the attention of four vampires who are inexplicably drawn to her. Content warnings: • respectful treatment of women and queer people; • positive depictions of polyamory and polifidelity; • consensual intimacy (trust me there are people out there that need this CW); • graphic sex scenes (straight, gay, threesome). Trigger warnings: • blood and vampiric shenanigans; • mentions of death and burning alive; • loss of parents and related grief; • dubcon (kinda? will need help figuring out if this is actually true or if i can remove this from the list). This is the first draft of the novel and is published on Wattpad for the sake of hopefully receiving feedback to improve the story.

Dark Velvet (Book 2) by bailsk

Layla thought she'd tasted the deepest secrets of the world she's found herself in, where love and darkness intertwine. But when shadows from Kaelen's past slip through her life, her reality fractures into something far more dangerous-and alluring-than she ever imagined. After uncovering hidden truths about Kaelen, Layla is pulled deeper into a world of dark magic, deceit, and unfinished business that she can't escape. Her once-grounded life spirals into a haunting path of jealousy and rivalry as Kaelen's twin brother, Kyren, emerges from the shadows, his presence an intoxicating mixture of warning and allure. Kyren knows things about Kaelen that no one else does... things that could destroy the fragile bond Layla has fought so hard to keep. Strange occurrences unravel at her job, her friendships begin to crumble, and her sense of reality slips through her fingers. With secrets lingering like smoke and the line between love and darkness blurring, Layla must decide how deep she's willing to go-or if she'll burn in the embers of someone else's past. As the world around her shifts and deceives, Layla discovers that not all magic is meant to be touched... and some shadows, once stirred, can never be put to rest.

Sacrifice For The Job by Idkhowtostopwriting

(This story is mostly smut as I plan on my next release being more innocent and lacking in that area. It also focuses very little on side characters since I wanted to keep the story short after feeling like my more recent stories have been a bit too long) After having the glow up of her dreams, Aria Hart finally believes she can get and do anything she wants. With that in mind, she goes after the job her ill uncle had always dreamt for her. She knows it will make him proud and believes pretty privilege will work in her favor. To her surprise, when she finally speaks to the man in charge, Elijah Caddel, she realizes that pretty privilege comes with a lot more opportunities than she previously imagined. Not all of them great. Aria finds herself in a deal she would have never imagined. One that actually makes her scowl upon hearing it. But when that deal can make or break her promise to her sick uncle, she feels she has no other choice but to accept it. After hearing the severity of the terms and experiencing it firsthand, Aria can't decide how she feels about their new agreement. Or how she feels about Elijah. (Similarly to "No Good For You", this story only details the start of their relationship. Not the during.) (Warning: this story is for readers 21+, intense smut scenes and language are included. Reader discretion advised.) (Story does switch POVs)
