{ONGOING} - Book 1
A threat to the Empire. A whore to the seas. And a life consumed with more questions than answers. These are the few things that Korina knows about herself when awakening against the sandy shores of an unknown territory after the ship she's lived on for nearly a decade is destroyed during a catastrophic storm at sea.
No last name. No sense of the realm she's living in or herself. And no one that's willing to help a fugitive who might be the last hope for a collapsing world. These are the many things that Korina searches for after she learns of her potential--and her role that will ultimately determine the fate of billions of magical beings threatened by the Empire's imperialistic dominance.
She may have little left to her name, but she still has something that the Empire has yet to rip away from their greatest enemy: light.

𝓘𝓷 𝓷𝓮𝓻 𝓓𝓮𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓼 - 𝓢𝔂𝓵𝓾𝓼
Lilith crosses paths with a man whose presence is impossible to ignore-broad-shouldered, quiet, and carrying an aura that unsettles everyone around him. To others, he's intimidating, someone to keep a careful distance from. But to her, the moment their eyes meet, something shifts. Her heart catches, and she feels an unexplainable pull toward him, as though fate itself had drawn their worlds together. She doesn't see the shadows he carries, the secrets buried deep within his silence. To her, he is mystery and allure, danger wrapped in beauty. What she doesn't yet know is that the man who just stole her breath is also the one hiding truths that could shatter her world. ------------------------------- Sylus was a man feared by many-an intimidating figure whose power and presence commanded every room he walked into. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, he built walls so high that no one dared to climb them. His life was one of control, where love had no place and vulnerability was a weakness he refused to show. But then she appeared. A young woman with a brightness that seemed to cut through his shadows, carrying warmth he didn't know he craved. Her laughter unsettled him, her kindness disarmed him, and her stubborn heart challenged the man who thought himself unchangeable. Where others saw only danger in him, she saw the pieces of someone worth saving. Against his instincts, he let her in. Slowly, she unraveled the darkness he carried, teaching him that love wasn't weakness-it was strength. And as she guided him onto a path he never thought he'd walk, he discovered that even the most powerful man can be humbled by the simplest truth: to be truly loved is to finally be free.Complete
10-Feet Sea God And His 5-Feet Human Bride
For over a thousand years, the Sea God has ruled the endless oceans, his power feared by mortals and worshipped by kings. His storms shape empires, his tides decide the fate of nations. Yet beneath his immortal strength lies a single, unfulfilled desire-an heir. He has crowned countless Sea Queens, each one chosen for her beauty, her magic, her divine blood. And each one has failed him. The sea remains silent, barren, and his throne grows colder with every passing century. Until one night, against every law of nature and every curse of the gods, a fragile human girl carries his child. She is everything he despises-mortal, weak, fleeting. He has drowned cities for less than a whisper of human defiance. And yet, inside her grows the one thing he has longed for more than power, more than eternity itself. Now, torn between hatred and desire, vengeance and hope, the Sea God must choose: Will he destroy the girl who embodies everything he loathes... Or protect the fragile spark of life that could finally break his eternal loneliness? A tale of forbidden love, divine wrath, and the one bond strong enough to shake the heavens-the bond between father and child.Complete

UNDER HIS CONTROL
"It's funny how a small, foolish belief can either bloom into something that brightens your life... or destroy it entirely. That's exactly what happened to me- the boy who everyone looked at as if he were bad luck, a curse, a sin that should've never existed in this already damned world. But what happens when you start believing it yourself? When you're forced to witness the terrifying sight of a corpse in the pitch- black darkness? It didn't end there. Because of that so-called bad luck... I met you. You became my bad luck. You became my eternal curse. ⚠️Content warning: This story explores dark and sensitive themes. Please note that these elements do not reflect my personal beliefs or values, and nothing here is meant to romanticise toxic or harmful behaviour.

Nocturne 18+
COMPLETED✔️ What follows is a violent clash of worlds, where elegance is destroyed by brutality and innocence is trapped by a darkness far deeper and more dangerous than anything she imagined. Her dream of becoming the greatest ballerina, praised by her parents and supported by a loving friend was once the perfect vision of her life. But fate with its cold indifference doesn't follow the paths we choose. Instead it controls our lives. In one sudden turn her world is flipped upside down and she meets a man who is nothing like the one she dreamed of. He is ruthless, consumed by his own ego, a mystery to all who encounter him. His abilities are beyond comparison, his morals fractured and ambiguous, and his true intentions buried beneath a veil of darkness. Where once she believed her life was guided by passion and elegance, she now finds herself thrust into a world governed by dominance and brutality, where survival no longer hinges on talent or grace but on submission to a far more unforgiving force.Complete
Hunted
**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why. Things become even more intense when he starts showing up in her dreams, claiming he is a werewolf and they are mates. An even more unexpected turn of events comes when Kora starts looking into the supernatural world and finds it is not as foreign to her as it should be.
