Nocturne 18+ by rosa_lidia

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.

Darkness Rising by TeaNHeartache

When Lenore faces an unexpected betrayal, it brings her face to face with a man who calls himself Kaiser. He's cloaked in mystery and his ultimate goal is unknown, but his promise of revenge is too good to turn down. With the unknown power supporting her, Lenore sets forth on a chaotic journey to bring down the gods of her world. But the further she travels down this ill-begotten path the more she uncovers about the people she once called family and the "god" they have devoted themselves to. A simple plot for revenge begins to unravel into something more. And Lenore can't help but question what it is that Kaiser truly wants from her? Because it appears that he may be more centered in this tale than he claimed. To whatever end, Lenore knows there is no turning back from this path. Cover by @still_just_me

Where The Stars Keep Us by quinn_between_

In a city that never truly sleeps, a neon-drenched club hums below an ancient house where secrets, shadows, and teeth wait in the dark. Here, vampires rule the night - beautiful, cruel, and bound by rules older than the streets they hunt on. When Yasmin wakes up in River's world - a world of donors, covens, and velvet-draped danger - she thinks she's just another pretty thing for him to keep. But River is no ordinary predator. He's charming, unreadable, with a mind that slips through secrets as easily as teeth slip through skin. He promises safety. He promises she's free to go. But the club's heartbeat thrums with other truths: once you step inside, you never really leave. Rain, the coven's ruthless enforcer, shifts between human and beast, guarding the house's fragile peace. Solana bends the elements to her will, her power both breathtaking and terrifying. And in the basement - behind locked doors and hungry whispers - the line between consent and carnage is thinner than Yasmin ever imagined. As dawns come and go behind UV-proof glass, Yasmin finds herself torn between the danger River embodies and the monsters he keeps at bay. The deeper she drifts into this den of fangs and velvet shadows, the more she wonders what she's becoming - prey, or something far more dangerous. In a world where night is a promise and trust is currency, Yasmin will have to decide: run while she still can, or carve out a place among predators who might just devour her whole. Where the Stars Keep Us is a dark, gothic urban fantasy pulsing with danger, desire, and the secrets we keep when the sun goes down.

𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐨𝐨𝐧: 𝐀 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬 by akshivyn_writess

Two rivals. One game. And a love that was never supposed to exist. They were never meant to love each other. Enemies by fate. Rivals in business. Bound by a past soaked in blood. Diya Raghuvanshi and Veer Malhotra have always been at war-in business, in power, in life. Their families were once bound by trust, but betrayal turned them into sworn enemies. In boardrooms and battlefields, they fight for dominance, never backing down. But hatred is a dangerous thing, because sometimes, it disguises itself as something far more intoxicating. Somewhere between heated arguments and deadly stares, between stolen glances and undeniable attraction, they find themselves trapped in a war of emotions neither of them wants to lose. When past wounds resurface and dark secrets threaten to unravel everything, will they destroy each other, or will love rewrite their fate? Can they survive the fire they ignite in each other, or will their past burn them to ashes? Enemies. Lovers. A war with no winners.

He valued nothing, loved nothing. He was a lost cause and his days on this ball of land and sea numbered; it was just a matter of marking time, now. But his little Hope was persistent. Something behind those innocent doe eyes both intrigued and terrified him. He watched her, sitting pretty on his bed; pushing the frame of her glasses up to the bridge of her cute little nose. To hell with it! He couldn't give two fucks if tomorrow never came, he'd sure as hell make sure she did, all fucking night long.

So fetching in blood my darling Queen: Seraph of the End by amberandshadow

FINISHED AND COMPLEATED. In the ashes of betrayal, monsters are reborn. Krul Tepes once ruled as queen-until Ferid Bathory drained her dry and paraded her corpse before the vampire council. But death is just another shadow for creatures like them. When Krul rises again, she doesn't seek vengeance. She seeks something darker: obsession, power, and the one vampire who destroyed her. Ferid welcomes her return with open arms and a razor-edged smile. Their every encounter is a war-of words, of wills, of blood. He's sadistic, charming, and unrepentant; she's regal, wrathful, and centuries old behind her childlike frame. They fight, they scheme, they bleed-but neither can let the other go. Amid gothic halls and candlelit courts, Krul and Ferid are forced into a dangerous alliance. Theirs is not a love story. It is a slow-burning spiral of manipulation, violence, and twisted intimacy where every touch is a threat and every secret could kill. As ancient enemies close in and vampire society unravels, their obsession turns from poison to power. Bound by blood, haunted by memory, they will either destroy each other-or become legends the world will fear. This is the story of monsters who find solace not in redemption, but in each other's ruin.

Burn for me by cristinaekovacs

It's the story of two psychopaths that do not admit they felt in love with each other, what could go wrong? It's like the blind leading the blind. But that's oki, one of them has a manual. Trigger warning list Sexually explicit content and graphic language Psychological obsession and fixation Blood and gore Murder and assassination Torture as foreplay (both psychological and physical) Stalking, hidden surveillance, and home invasion Emotional manipulation Breath play, fear play, and knife/gun play (If it's in a kink list and a criminal code, it's probably in here.) Consensual non-consent (dubcon) Power imbalance (erotic and interpersonal) Implicit threats and violence against bystanders Academic ethics, violated in several creative ways Language related to dehumanization Voyeurism Villain worship Weapon use in sexual scenes Mild bloodplay Mental health deterioration Death threats Government experimentation / human rights violations And mostly: HE.IS.NOT.A.GOOD.PERSON. He will, for sure, without a doubt, constantly, do things that will make you hate him. Not everyone is Zade. 31 chapters in total, spread well enough so my ADHD brain can remember the story from a week to the next one.
