This is where the lines between hero and villain blur. Once upon a time, in a distant kingdom in the Rose Valley, there lived a young princess. Maybe a little proud. Maybe she was the sweetest princess. And maybe not. She had many suitors, but she did not accept a single proposal for her hand in marriage. She didn't want to become a king's wife, she wanted to be a queen and rule her country. But one day darkness crept into the happy kingdom. A thick fog crept through the forest. Shadows walked under the treetops. The Shadow Lord came to propose to Princess Luna. She rejected him like everyone else, despite the fact that he was the only one who managed to impress her. However, the Shadow Lord isn't about to give up so quickly. He presents a gift to the princess. For the rest of eternity, at the stroke of midnight, she will die and come back to life with the first rays of day. Again and again. Every night. An endless cycle. Because as the Shadow Lord said, "I will wait for you, even if it takes forever." Old wounds are being opened. The boundaries between worlds are blurring.

24 parts Complete Mature
Aurelia Vidal took a job as a secretary for the head office of a company known across the country for lavish dinner parties, wine bottles worth thousands, and cuisine tailored to individual wishes, hoping to achieve the same for her future. For years, Aurelia took pride in her job, living her life as aspirant as possible, trying to create a small glimmer of joy in her coworkers' daily lives. Her almost Naive outlook on life has done her more than a few favors, which in her opinion, outweighed the negatives. But her naivety and optimism have been slowly diminishing under the iron-clad hammer her boss, Ford Madison, wields, cowering the goodness in her heart, with the intent to break her down until she becomes yet another corporate slave, wasting her days on a 9 to 5 she hates; well, that's from her point of view. As she feels she will hit her limit, a dark--much older-- stranger approaches her, offering her a gentle kindness she had only been offered once upon a dream, ready to pull her from her dark wasteland of a mindset and show her what she is truly worth. *************** (warning, there will be no individual trigger warnings, but this book will contain many triggering materials, including other mature content as well) Also, haha, warning, DADDY ISSUES And no, the Atticus in this book is not the same as the one from my other book, 'the shy one' I promise they are unrelated, I just have an over-the-top obsession with the name. Yes, this is an age-gap romance

He hated her yet he want her. The past was buried, But when the ground is disturbed, when old sins are unearthed, the present begins to unravel-every truth twisted, every memory tainted with doubt. What was once hate is now a weapon. A weapon sharp enough to carve the future, or blunt enough to shatter the past. Because in this story, hate isn't just an emotion; it's the ink that will write their fates. Two sides of the same story-yet something vital remains missing, lurking in the spaces between their truths. A single piece that could change everything. A collision of two forces, a war neither can afford to lose. He is the viper-silent, venomous, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. She is the storm-wild, untamed, ready to destroy anything in her path. And in a game written by vengeance, one truth remains: The past is never really buried. And when it rises, it will demand a price. ▼・ᴥ・▼ 𝙏𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙨 & 𝙂𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙚 Childhood friends to enemies Childhood sweetheart University romance Revenge
