Upon the blurred line of morality and at the mercy of circumstance, two souls meet. Again. And again. And again. So, is it simply a coincidence or something more?
When a young Mariel leaves home, she is instructed to lead a quiet, ignoble life. Forever. And so, determined to remain overlooked, she toils endlessly, disguised as all things plain. But they say still waters run deep, and even the ordinary are not who they appear to be...
So, what would it take for those waters to ripple?
Enter the raucous and free Axtapor, a nobleman turned pirate. Dashing through life like a tempest, he is resolved to live on his own terms, allowing none to stand in his way. But a pirate's curse is a pair of wandering eyes, a boundless appetite for more, and a fascination with the unknown.
Waters disturbed, the two upend one another's lives with misunderstanding hands and misguided compassion. The balances of fate tip dangerously and they quickly find themselves pitted against the same foe: time. The world's watchful eyes fall upon them as night coats the skies and something unexpectedly new begins to emerge.
Hope.
Little do they know just how dangerous something like that can be.

The Lycan's Bargain
"Please help me... I'll do anything. I just want my mother to live." I cried, tears streaming down my face in torrents, my body trembling in fear. Kael stared down at me, his glowering eyes devoid of any emotion and a chill ran down my spine. "Anything, you say?" He asked, pointing the edge of his sword against my neck and I stiffened, refusing to breathe. "Anything... " I whispered, my voice small yet resolute. A corner of his lips quirked up, not quite forming a smile. "How about my slave?" ***** She was supposed to be his captive, not his salvation. When Aira sneaks into forbidden Lycan territory to save her mother, she is caught and thrown at the mercy of the ruthless Lycan King, Kael Drathlor. In a desperate bargain, she trades her freedom for her mother's life. But as she becomes the king's unwilling companion, Aira discovers a terrifying truth-Kael is cursed, unable to die, unable to feel the mate bond that should tie them together. As dark forces conspire against them and Kael spirals further into self-destruction, Aira must decide: escape and save herself, or risk everything for the beast who might never love her back. In a world where fate is both a gift and a curse, can she break the chains of destiny before it's too late? 1 in Kael on 24/4/2025 1 in Captive on 26/4/2025 2 in dreamlandbooks on 26/4/2025 1 in beautyandthebeast on 27/5/2025 1 in historicalromance on 30/5/2025 1 in werewolf on 05/10/2025Concluida
Secrets of the Sea
My heart, which had been fluttering nervously in my chest, dropped to the soles of my feet. Familiar blue eyes met mine. In my dreams they were steely and cold, haunting, different from the dark amusement that glinted in them now. He reminded me of a Shadow Cat; great lethal felines that prowled through the Lost Jungle, preparing to attack his prey.Me. *** A simple tavern maid gets shipped - literally - into a world full of piracy, lies, and battles. The longer she stays out in sea, the more she learns that the pirates her country is fighting are not regular pirates, and that the people she comes to care about the most are in the middle of all the fighting. Laria must get her act together after her hometown is massacred and help win this war, but can she, when a supposed noble comes into her life at the same time her ex-fiancee returns?Concluida
Entangled With Them
"From today onwards, you'll be our captive. Our acquisition. Your life will be resigned to this chamber, to serving us. You'll answer to our every beck and call, and should you try to be defiant, we wouldn't hesitate to strip you bare and whip the devil out of you before locking you up in the dungeons without food and water. Are. We. Clear?" He ground out, punctuating the words with feral anger. Tears burned Elaine's eyes, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind, filled with trepidation. She choked on her own sob, but she had to answer. "Yes... Masters." She forced out, pitifully breaking into a sob. Their lips twitched then. "Welcome to your new life, Elaine. We hope you enjoy it." ******* Princess Elaine Renee Valys has always lived a sheltered life, hidden away in a tower on the outskirts of her father's kingdom. But she's had enough of it, secretly wishing for the day her father would call her home and she would be allowed to explore the world. It finally happens, but not in the way she expects.

Chained submission (old version, discontinued)
This is the old version of this book. It will be discontinued but there is currently a new version being made right now which is on my profile. Koa, a 17 year old boy lived in a world full of shifters. It's his last year of high school and he is ready to be done and move on with his life. Tomorrow is his 18th birthday which indicates he will finally be able to find his mate. Throughout his first day as a senior, he found his classes and even made friends on the way. In one of his classes though, English, a conversation started on the topic of the known to be extinct dragon shifters. Even though it got dark, he remained the same and went on about his day. Many people avoided Koa due to him being intimidating. He was known for having a bad temper and getting into many fights for no absolute reason. And surprisingly, he was an omega with the looks and temper of an alpha. Excited to meet his mate, he couldn't wait for the day to end, but little did he know his life would change forever on the day he thought would be his best. "You're ours, nobody else shall touch you or they may never touch anything again." "If it means locking you up where the only ones who can please you, touch you, and enjoy your presence is us, then we will be sure to make that happen, little puppy." "We've waited your whole life to get you under our possession. We will have you once you wake." -Make sure to check out tags before reading.- MxMxB/MxMxM ⚠️There has been many complaints and concerns regarding the story, so please be warned that the Mc will be treated more like a pet/animal throughout the story and especially the beginning, but this will get better and calm down after some time.⚠️ TW: Suicide attempts Self harm (not too much) Manipulation Kidnapping Chains/collars/muzzles/leashes/ropes Some bondage Stockholm syndrome/trauma bonding Slaves Unfair treatment Agegap (17-19 years) Deaths/killings Mentions of torture (some does show) Attempted rape EtcConcluida

Divided against the wishes of fate, a pair of unlikely friends or, perhaps, strangers find themselves at opposite ends of Oepus and of an uncharacteristic longing. The wheels of consequence begin to turn, plunging the world into a bloody darkness unlike any other, begging the question: what is the worth of a single life? Scattered by the harsh designs of reality, Axtapor and Mariel are forced to confront the aftermath of runaway hopes. A new struggle begins to take shape as their worlds narrow around them, and the reprieve of dreams becomes newly alluring... Directionless, they descend into the deepest parts of the mind, grasping at fate in search of the truth. But they are not the only ones searching for answers. Elsewhere on the seas of Oepus float, Captain Fay Anara and her Quartermaster, the famed Son of The Moon. Voracious, the two set sail upon the Mirage for their most ambitious pillage yet. Their take? The high seas themselves. But when the long arm of fate intervenes, reality warps, memories begin to fail, and things take a turn for the worst. And somewhere, a wailing can be heard. Faintly, faintly, a cursed door swings open once more, shattering the notions of what is and isn't possible. Are you brave enough to step through? *Contains mature themes, such as violence, gore, body horror, sexual content, and offensive/triggering language, please read with care and at your own discretion.*Concluida
The Hollow Tree
(The Woven Curse Series) "You say 'simple' like we don't have a history of things going very much not simple," she said, waving towards the forest. She wasn't wrong. But still. I stepped in front of her and held her gaze. "Issy. We're already here. We can't pretend we didn't see it." She glared at me. I glared back. Two idiots. One brain cell. Shared custody. "What if they're evil?" she asked. "Then we leave." "What if they're magical?" "Then we still leave." "What if they're hot?" I raised a brow. She paused. Then she sighed. "Okay, fair point. We should at least look." ༻❁༺ A story about two best friends who somehow end up in a kingdom straight out of their favourite fantasy books. Picture rolling fields of emerald grass, crystal lakes with shimmering springs, and the most breathtaking night sky you've ever seen. There's just one catch - the kingdom is cursed, and those two girls are the only ones who can break it. Oh, and one more thing: they've never been here before, have absolutely no magic, and seem to be attracting all the wrong kinds of attention... particularly from a cold-hearted king and an evil enforcer. Sounds fun, right?

No matter what, the tears keep flowing down. "Please don't cry." He whispers. "You have someone out there just for you. Waiting for you." I whisper softly. A sad smile forms on my face that is now saltier than the ocean bed itself. I try to tug his hand off my face, but his hold is firm. He leans his head down and places it against mine. "I know." His whisper equally soft. "You need to let go. Just as I am." I close my eyes and take in the breeze of ocean that surrounds him and now me.
