The North Sea Beast
"I'll tell you something about myself- I never mince words. Nature is a beast, Henry. We were not created to live in peace within it. Be grateful for those who let you down; pain is the only truth that endures." The sea wind howls a bitter truth across the North Sea coast: betrayal, not love, is the world's only constant. This is not a tale of heroes and villains, but a brutal exploration of the human soul-a mirror reflecting the savage beauty and terrifying depths we all possess. The guilt-ridden, the desperate, and the cunning are all players in a high-stakes legacy that demands a price from every generation. Beneath the veneer of civilized society, a clandestine order pulls the strings, their influence woven into the very fabric of existence. Secrets fester within an ancient bloodline, grasping like tendrils into the present day. Honour clashes with avarice. Integrity squares off against ruthless force. Cunning faces brutality. Who will rise, and who will be consumed by the abyss? Rumors whisper of a slumbering entity, a primal force stirring beneath the surface. Will it awaken and claim its due, or will it remain dormant, a threat forever lurking in the shadows? Prepare to be swept away in an epic saga where the fate of many hangs by a thread, and the true nature of the beast is far more complex than it seems. --- Content Warning: Features an unapologetically cynical and eccentric voice, including scenes of violence, offensive language, and moral ambiguity.

The World Under
" The world is not ours alone. Beneath our footsteps lie stories older than stone, and voices that never stopped speaking. Not every shadow belongs to light, and not every silence is empty. The earth is crowded with forgotten beings, dwelling where our eyes cannot reach. They are not lost- they wait. And when we step too far, the door between worlds opens, and what was hidden remembers us."
𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝑻𝒐 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒍
Here comes something simple that turns into a mysterious case with too many traitors and questions left unanswered. 𝘾𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙚. An introvert with too many thoughts and actions balanced... for now. Humorous, 𝗼𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁, quiet but a good liar. But what if the world she could manage and tolerate? Modern and known? ʜᴀᴅ ᴄʜᴀɴɢᴇᴅ ᴡɪᴛʜᴏᴜᴛ ʜᴇʀ ᴡɪʟʟ? The one she'd read in stories, books, mysteries and murder. 𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙖 𝙢𝙖𝙣. Mysterious and cold - unlike what she had ever met before. A voice elegant just depends, with choices some maybe can't tell. Until the game becomes similar for both. Until the humour she would think in her head had became quiet. And his mind... slightly changed.
NOT HER!
I never planned to fall for a girl. Especially NOT HER! I was always straight! She was my childhood best friend, the girl my parents trusted, the girl I grew up sharing toothbrushes and boy secrets with. But the girl I reunited with in the same university wasn't the same person. She was different. Dark. Powerful. Untouchable. Addictive. She became. She had the whole campus trembling , drug rings, mafia ties, secrets too heavy to speak about. And somehow... she wanted me. I told myself I was straight. I told myself I had home training. I told myself I wasn't her. Until the night she touched me. And I let her. This is not a love story. This is a slow dying. A first person confession. And if you read long enough... you'll understand why I didn't survive her.

What if the door they warned you about... was the only one that called your name? What if the voice sounded familiar - like someone you lost? Would you open it? And when your reflection smiled back with eyes that weren't yours... would you still believe you were safe? What if you were the one possessed - but too aware to stop it? And what if the only people who could save you... were the ones already breaking? How do you fight a demon... when it's wearing your soul like skin?Complete
Fangs & Fury
When the first body fell, the truce began to bleed. Seraphina Vale I didn't ask to be here-standing in a cathedral that reeks of blood and secrets, staring at the one man I swore I'd never need. Darius Fenrir. Wolf royalty with a superiority complex so big it could choke a dragon. He thinks I'm trouble. He's right. Trouble in heels, with a smile sharp enough to slit throats. But when corpses start appearing-bodies branded with symbols no one dares to speak of-I know this isn't about fangs versus fur anymore. Something old is waking, something that wants to burn this fragile truce to ashes. And somehow, it's tied to me. Darius Fenrir I should kill her. End of story. Seraphina Vale is everything I hate-vain, venom-tongued, and far too intoxicating for my own good. She moves like sin draped in silk, and every word out of her mouth makes me want to muzzle her... or worse. But the killings have changed everything. A prophecy soaked in blood has clawed its way back from the shadows, and somehow she's tangled in it. I don't trust her. Hell, I don't even like her. But the more bodies we find, the more I wonder if fate's cruel joke is pairing me with the one creature who could break my kingdom... and me. Dark secrets. Deadly alliances. A killer who bleeds chaos. Welcome to Fangs and Fury.
