The body of a mermaid is a vault of treasures. Their tears formed the most splendid of pearls, their exquisite blood a euphoric drug for vampires, their luscious hair woven into the finest of silk, and their tender meat sought after by werewolves more than Heaven's ambrosia.
The creatures of night mingled within human society, fleeced in the wool of aristocracy, veiled in their portrayed innocence and nobility, their savagery continued to predate on the weak and powerless.
Genevieve Barlow, Eve for short, was an exceptionally strange young lady. She had an alluring and beguiling nature, where for her twenty-four year old self had barely changed in appearance since her eighteenth birthday. She had fooled the administration and had gotten a degree so that she could have a better life.
Most odd of all was that Eve had a secret she shared with no one.
She enters the house of Moriarty, not just to earn but also to find answers on what happened to her mother nearly two decades ago.
Unfortunately, things do not always proceed as one planned. Despite her cautious nature and desire to stay out of sight, a cold pair of eyes falls on her, that soon refuses to leave her out of sight.

Heartbeat (GirlxGirl) lesbian
I felt a longing to trail my hands on her body. To explore and know the vampire that managed to steal my heart. I inched closer, every single cell of my body hyper aware of her nearness. The music picked up its rhythm, and we swayed with each other, a dance of seduction that slowly but surely consumed my mind. My eyes automatically went to her lips, frozen in a half-smile, tempting, coaxing me to kiss her. In this moment, my sickness, my parents and siblings, every thought seemed to vanish, except her and me. Sweat trickled down my back. I leaned nearer, nearer, feeling her breath on my face. I opened my mouth, ready to taste the forbidden fruit in front of me.Complete
The Shorekeeper
Cassian Vale was once a sailor-maybe a smuggler, maybe a wreck diver, maybe a fugitive. His memories are fractured, glimpses of sea spray, fire, hands slipping beneath waves, and a woman's voice singing as the world went black. He carries deep grief, though he doesn't yet know its source. There's someone he failed to save. Someone whose voice still echoes in his dreams. His last true memory is of a storm that shouldn't have existed. In truth, he's been here before. He died once-washed into the sea, body broken, soul scattered. The siren sang him back. Or maybe the sea did. Either way, he doesn't remember dying. Just the drowning. - The locals call it Saint's Rest, a place whispered about in dying breaths and near-drowning hallucinations. A place where you go when you're running-from the world, from your past, from yourself. You're found by a woman who sings to the sea. They say she's one of the Saltwater Saints-beings chosen by the ocean, touched by something older than gods. But she's no witch. She's something far more dangerous. She is a siren, cursed-or blessed-to walk among humans. She has a voice that can command, seduce, or destroy. She trades music for memories. Her presence quiets storms... or summons them. And for reasons she doesn't explain, she helps you.Complete

After narrowly escaping the crumbling underwater city, they are thrust into the harsh realities of a society that views them as monsters. Despite their physical mutations and the lingering traces of Adam in their bodies, the two women find solace in each other's arms, bound by a shared past and a drive to destroy the corrupt systems that created them. As they fight to uncover the secrets buried beneath the city's decaying underbelly, Mara and Evelyn face constant threats from the authorities, their enemies, and the very system that once controlled them. Pursued relentlessly, the two Splicers must use every ounce of their cunning, strength, and Plasmid-enhanced powers to take down a conspiracy that goes deeper than they ever imagined. But when their journey leads them into the heart of the government's shadowy experiments, they discover a hidden weapon-the last remnants of Andrew Ryan's vision, capable of reaching the surface world and changing the course of their destiny. As they struggle against time, the past and their blossoming love become both their greatest strength and most dangerous weakness. In Tangled in the Depths, the fight for survival becomes not only about reclaiming their freedom, but about creating a world where they can live without fear, love without boundaries, and destroy the systems that once sought to use them. The storm is gathering, and together, Mara and Evelyn will burn it all down.Complete
The hidden wolf
Aleah Sullivan wakes up to the sound of her alarm blaring. Another day at the café. She swings her legs over the bed, stretching and yawning, feeling the dull ache in her muscles that has become familiar over the years. Her physical strength has always been a little abnormal, but she chalks it up to good genetics, not thinking much of it. In her small town of Redfern, she's known as the strong, independent girl who's been on her own since her parents passed away in a car accident when she was young. The day begins like any other: making coffee, chatting with customers, and meeting her best friend, Sophie, for lunch. Sophie, ever the inquisitive one, brings up her favorite topic-Aleah's love life. "You're 22 and still single. When are you going to let me set you up with someone?" Sophie teases, her eyes sparkling as they sit in a small diner. Aleah rolls her eyes. "I'm fine, really. I've got too much going on to think about dating." "Right," Sophie scoffs. "Because you're just so busy... serving coffee and working on your poetry. You deserve more, Aleah." More. The word stirs something deep inside Aleah, something she can't quite put her finger on. There's always been a strange pull, a feeling that there was more to life than her quiet existence. But she has no idea how much more. Later that evening, as she heads home, Aleah feels the familiar tug that's grown stronger in recent weeks. It's a pull toward the woods, which have always seemed oddly comforting yet mysterious. She shrugs off the feeling, attributing it to fatigue and the solitude of her rural town. Little does she know, the life she's known is about to be shattered.Complete
Devil Mine (Walk Through Shadows Book Two)
"You're uncomfortable." "For being paid for sex?" She looked up at him. "Why would that make me uncomfortable?" "The money is for the time you spent on your hair, makeup, and then posing. Not for the rest of it." He took her hand and put the envelope in it. "The rest was just two people who got lost in a moment." "Ah I see." She looked down at the envelope with a frown. "Well, thank you then." "No, thank you for doing that for me. It was a huge help." She took a step back and bumped into the door jamb. "Em." She looked up as his hands cupped her face. "I'm still lost." After suffering the loss of everyone she'd cared about all Emmeline Carter wanted a simple, uneventful life. Just when she'd begun to emerge from a deep mantle of pain to start living again he appeared and completely upended her world. Balthazar was looking for somewhere to lay low for a few months. The apartment in a nondescript building in a quiet neighbourhood appeared to be the perfect choice. No one would think to look for him in the old slightly run down area of town. He could keep to himself and wait out the danger alone. She is a complication he doesn't need but rather than walking away like he knows he should, he finds himself drawn to her. There's something different about Emmeline. Something he can't explain. He is a predator. She should be a victim. Hunted by forces darker than either could imagine they will fight to keep each other alive.Complete
