Maeve is still adjusting to her new life with Will and Ander, steeped in monsters and violence. Her own powers are still a mystery to her. Fear holds her back from exploring what they are or what creature that might make her. Unable to resist Will's lust but still drawn to Ander, she tries to balance her relationships with them. Maeve is determined to prove that she might not be a soldier, but she can be just as useful in other ways.

Will never expected the changes Maeve would bring to their lives or to him. He finds it harder and harder to fulfill his duty as a Soldier of Night. She touches a part of him he believed was dead, as he struggles with his own mind tearing apart. Fear for his cousin eats at him daily. Paranoia, for his betrayal, only adds to his own deteriorating mental health.

Despite being an abomination, Ander gained Maeve's favor. It has changed everything and yet nothing. He seeks a deeper connection with her, but understands it will never be more because of who and what he is. Finding solace in his magic, he walks the razor sharp line between power and losing himself forever.All Rights Reserved

Vitality (Vitality Series #1) by Crysta_levere_author

A violent passion. A dangerous bond. A nightmare that will change everything. To Ava, love is about as real as fairytales. But it might be that fairytales, myths, and magic have some truth to them after all - as well as the monsters that lie in the shadows. Or she could just be completely out of her mind. After a mental breakdown and a move to a new town, everything changes when Ava clashes with a stranger with eyes as black as midnight and a terrifying sinister air. Her wishes to feel something again become granted. But Ava soon learns that not only is he as cold as he is beautiful, but he brings something out of her, stronger than ever, like fuel to fire - something she's desperate to bury. He haunts her dreams and waking life, and staying away becomes harder than she could have ever imagined, risking her life, her humanity, and the people that she cares about. Not to mention the fate of the world. She's fighting for life. He's fighting for death. What does it take to live? What does it take to love?

The Witch and The Rogue by V_Knives

Astra has always believed strength meant power, the kind she never had as an orphan witch. Clawing her way to magical prowess through self-study and sheer will, she dreams of becoming a heroic adventurer in the gritty city of Vallentis. But when she intervenes in a street fight to save V, a time-lost fairy rogue from the Feywild, radiating chaotic evil and a death wish, she unleashes a force that shatters her illusions of good and evil. V, an ancient martial artist stripped of purpose, challenges Astra's ideals with his cynical survivalism: he kills without hesitation or remorse, and lives free of desire, haunted by centuries of loss. Yet his unflinching devotion and affection awaken Astra's raw passion and need for connection, forging a transformative bond that pulls them into an intimate war of love and death.

Echoes of Three Souls by TheFabledInk

Maeve has always been haunted by the loss of her parents, retreating into a world of solitude with her closest friends and her cat, Archie. But after a chance encounter with the captivating couple, Scarlett and Reese, her world is turned upside down. Maeve is irresistibly drawn to their gentle dominance and protective nature, stirring unfamiliar emotions. As she navigates these feelings and her complicated past, Maeve must decide if she's ready to open her heart to the powerful connection they offer-and trust that their care could help her heal in ways she never imagined. **************** "Come here little one," Reese murmured, reaching out. Maeve's arms fell around his neck as he scooped her up, cradling her against his chest like she was the most delicate thing in the world. She trembled slightly in his hold, her body exhausted but still shaken. Scarlett fell into step beside them, her gaze lingering on Maeve, concern softening the usual sharpness in her expression. As Scarlett shifted beside Maeve, her voice was soft but warm. "Hey Bunny, it's just me. Don't worry, we're going to take care of you, okay?" Her soothing tone melted through Maeve's defenses as Maeve nodded slowly, the tears still glistening in her eyes. Scarlett's touch was firm yet gentle as she guided Maeve's hands in hers, offering both comfort and quiet strength.

Bed of Lies by chelsy_lea

They broke her trust. They broke his mind. But when the past claws its way back, survival isn't enough - vengeance demands blood. Victoria learned how to stay quiet. Grief became her shadow, guilt her constant companion. It whispered in her ear that she should have been the one to die instead. Not her mother. Never her mother. If she had, maybe her father wouldn't have walked away, leaving them to fend for themselves. But silence is a fragile shield-and when the past resurfaces, dragging her into a world she barely escaped, she realizes staying quiet won't save her this time. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, behind rage, behind the monster his past made him. Forged by cruelty, built by betrayal, and fueled by rage, he became the kind of man other monsters feared. Scars became his armor. Violence, his language. He doesn't believe in mercy-only vengeance. Especially for the man who made him this way. Victoria was everything he had been taught to avoid - soft yet unbreakable, damaged yet defiant. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own, a past carved into her bones, a war waged behind tired eyes. She saw through him in ways no one else had ever dared, and he hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. He was chaos wrapped in quiet fury, a storm threatening to consume everything in its path. And yet, when she looked at him, she didn't just see the monster - she saw the man who had once fought to hold on to his soul. But love between two broken people is never easy. It's volatile. Cruel. A constant push and pull, neither of them willing to surrender, both too damaged to truly hold on. The closer they get, the more dangerous the stakes become. Yet, for all the ways they fought against it, they kept coming back to each other.

TOTAL Compatibility (All volumes) by Shayangipnokot

Behind the Barrier, Jillian's life is tidy enough: follow orders, keep the illusion of peace intact-and, in theory, fix her personal life, which remains an ongoing disaster. That is, until things stop making sense-and she starts recognizing faces she's never met. Her job? Eliminate the creatures that slip through from the Astral. Easy enough-until one of them, a charming bastard who calls himself a Wishmaster, starts slipping into her dreams and peeling back her defenses like he's done it before. Maybe he has. Then there's her new partner: engineered by OptiMate to be her perfect match, tailored to her needs with unsettling precision, and wearing a face that feels just a little too familiar. And maybe that's not a coincidence either. As reality unravels and memories begin surfacing in all the wrong places, Jillian starts to wonder if the real threat isn't what lurks beyond the Barrier-but what's already rewriting her from the inside. A blend of sharp-edged romance, warped memory, and twisted magic-for readers who love stories where love feels wrong, the past refuses to stay buried, and the truth hits like a sucker punch.

Is Maeve strong enough to make desicions for the well being of her pack? And why is Jesse more jealous then he's ever been before? And who the heck does this new guy think he is?

Reaper's Pet by JoselinToftlund

"I love you," Jack smiled. They looked at each other for what felt like a decade. "...No. No you don't." Willow rolled her eyes. "It seemed like the part of our fight where I should say it," he smirked, only making her anger rise. "Why are you doing this?" His expression faltered for a second as he heard the fear in her voice. "Treating me like this? Do you hate me or something? Or do you just not care if I live or die?" His eyes widened briefly before he shook his head. "I don't hate you, or want you to die. But I can't like you either. Humans live a short life, I live forever." He paused, taking a breath. "I can't let myself get attached to someone that will just die on me, or put you in danger," Jack sighed, scratching his neck. Something in his voice made Willow believe this wasn't his words, but rather, words he had been told. Do you love reapers, forbidden love, and a reaper boy you can't help but adore? Then this is the story for you! When Willow made a deal with a reaper to save her little brother, she never expected to end up as one's bloodbag. Or, as Jack likes to call her, 𝙋𝙚𝙩. Join Willow on her journey as she discovers the hidden supernatural world that has been right under her nose for longer than she even remembers. And pray to Death for her soul, because 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯, she's gonna need it.

A Plaything for the Dragons by annablazer

❝Two dragons and their dirty little plaything.❞ I didn't have much before the war. Just a name, a half-broken past, and kraken scars that burn every time I breathe. The war didn't break me-it just left marks that never healed. Now, I scrape by in the Banished Realm doing what I must to survive-petty crimes, quiet getaways, keeping my head low and my secrets buried. It's barely enough. Until desperation pushes me into a mission I can't afford to refuse. One risky job. One promised payout. One brutal trap I never saw coming. Framed for a crime I didn't commit, I'm dragged into the dungeons of the Banished Kings. A mated pair-ancient, ruthless, and sinfully beautiful. They claim they want answers. But the way they circle me, the way their eyes linger on my scars and the fire beneath my skin... it's not just the truth they crave. I have a secret they can never uncover. Because if they do, they won't destroy me. They'll devour me-mind, body, and soul. And I don't know if I'll beg them to stop... or to never stop at all.
