A brand is a divine marking that results out of intimacy and is considered beautiful... unless you're unwedded.

Margaret James is the Duchess of Deneb and the daughter of the highest political figure in their city: Judge Mark James. She is expected to follow the rules without fail and to never, ever falter to her flesh. She has been pledged to the chief officer, William Lach. But there is one problem with this arrangement...

Margaret James shares a brand with Carson Owens.

Carson belongs to the infamous Owens family and to the Middle Class, which means it's impossible for him to marry the woman he loves. Despite the rules, the two of them bound themselves together as young teenagers, and now they will do everything in their power to hide the brand given to them by Anem, the goddess of souls. If caught, they will suffer dire consequences.

Getting caught is inevitable.

Gabriel & Athena, Book One: Fate  (A Wattpad Featured Story) by NMBooks
26 parts Complete
FORMERLY TITLED "FATUM" Chosen as a Wattpad Featured Story in May 2017 There's a reason high school senior Athena Thorpe spends every available moment reading books: fiction is always so much better than the real world. Even the unexpected scandal she suffered thanks to Jackson Montgomery was just a blip in her typically mundane existence in Sparrow, North Carolina. But no story could ever compare to the life-altering events that occur when Gabriel Valente moves into town. Being the son of a notorious crime lord and having grown up on the streets of Manhattan, Gabriel defies all the expectations the students of Sparrow High have for him, including Athena's. She never expected he would match her interest in the written word, or his unlikely grand gestures and definitely not the immediate but intense feelings which cause them to spiral into a secret relationship. A relationship that hinders on Gabriel's uncertain future, which could find him being the heir to the mob throne. Whether or not she wants to admit it, Athena knows the world Gabriel comes from is a dark and violent one. It's just really easy to pretend it doesn't exist within the bubble that is Sparrow. Yet, no matter how much we pretend, reality is never far away, with Gabriel and Athena learning a tragic lesson about choice and consequence a little too late. When you finally decide what you want most in life, the next question becomes: will fate agree?

This is a dark romance book with dark themes so read at your own Risk. In the shadows of a world marked by danger and deceit, where power and secrecy are paramount, he stands as a figure both feared and revered. Zeke, my father's best friend, is a man wrapped in mystery, his presence commanding respect and instilling fear. His world is a perilous labyrinth of clandestine deals and hidden threats, a place where danger lurks at every turn. He is off-limits, a forbidden desire, and the one man I am unequivocally warned to stay away from. But he is also the man I crave, the one who ignites a fire within me that I can't extinguish. Our connection defies logic and social boundaries, a tantalizing blend of safety and recklessness. Being with him is dangerous, a transgression against every rule set by society and my father. Yet, the thrill of defying those boundaries is intoxicating, drawing me deeper into his orbit. Zeke controls me in ways I can't fully comprehend. His touch, his voice, his mere presence command my obedience and awaken a rebellious spirit within me. He makes me want to push his limits, to see just how far he will go to punish my disobedience. There's a delicious agony in the way he restrains himself, a constant battle between what is right and what he desires. He is mine, and I am his, in a way that transcends the dangers and prohibitions surrounding us. Our bond is a defiant declaration to a world that would never understand, to a father who would never approve. But in those moments when we are together, nothing else matters. Anyone who can't accept our forbidden passion can go to hell for all I care. In Zeke's arms, I find both peril and sanctuary, a reckless love that consumes me completely.
