"Not all you see is as it seems. There is life hidden behind it. Tread carefully, arouse no suspicion, keep to the rules, and just maybe you will be here for an eternity. My name is Alex Markus. Welcome to the Markus Party."
...
This fascinating invitation excited anyone who ever ventured within their massive castle. Oh, to be captured by them. Possessed. Engaged. Entertained! They thought.
And this exhilaration was not missing from the group of fifty interns hired by the family to do, as was written, 'a series of odd jobs'. Why? It was too strange to know why. It was unprecedented to think that a family this rich would ever need interns.
Still...they were considered the lucky fifty. Not only would they get to meet the reclusive family, but they would also act as entertain during the event. It made them famous overnight. Opportunities to marry heiresses, own companies, became presidents were waiting for them.
Underneath it all, romances, beauties, escapades, betrayals, and mysteries threatened to overwhelm them. With every new day they began to discover horrors in the castle. Their once light-hearted opportunity became a desperate fight for sanity. And yet, they couldn't escape what they couldn't understand.
Talking doors, bloody chandeliers, empty halls, and pointless rules; meaning nothing and everything. To Peter's delight, to Ian's temptation, to Jasmine's terror, and to Lucy's embrace.
Nothing was truly as it seemed.
...
The Markus family were a marvel to the world. Kings, princes, moguls, dictators, and all sorts readily flocked within their mysterious home every year, once a year, for the Markus Party. And this year's party would change the world.

*COMPLETED* "You think I'd murder you?" He laughed humorlessly. "I- what?" I stuttered, looking at him with a lost expression. If he didn't want to kill me, what was all of this then? "What's your name, speedy?" He asked after shaking his head. "Why would I-I tell you my name?" I tried to sound brave, but this whole scenario was just freaking me out. "I'll find out, eh?"

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.
