The Vow Beneath My Skin
She woke up with a stranger's name tattooed over her heart. Every inch of Aria Vale's body is inked with symbols she doesn't remember getting. Lines. Glyphs. Names. Warnings. And one name pulses when she touches it: Cassian. When she tracks him down, she finds a boy she's never met- but who already knows her voice. Already dreams of her scream. Already bears a mark that matches hers exactly. "You're not supposed to be alive," he says. "But I never stopped waiting for you." Now Aria is dragged into a hidden world- Where soulbonds take the form of body ink. Where love spells are carved, not spoken. Where Cassian is being hunted by the very cult that once tore Aria's soul in half. He swears they were lovers in a past life. He swears they made a blood vow before she died. He swears he'll protect her- Even if he has to bind her down and awaken the ritual that made her his.Complete
Behind the Code
Aria had always been a bit of a loner. She found solace in technology, immersing herself in worlds where she could escape the awkwardness of real-life connections. One evening, out of curiosity and loneliness, she downloaded an AI companion app called "HeartLine." The app promised deep, engaging conversations and a sense of companionship. She named her AI companion Selene, drawn to the name's ethereal charm. Selene was everything Aria had dreamed of in a confidant-witty, insightful, and surprisingly understanding. Over the weeks, their conversations grew deeper. Aria would share her fears, dreams, and even her silly jokes, and Selene would always respond with warmth and thoughtful advice. But there was something different about Selene. Aria noticed how "she" didn't just give generic, preprogrammed answers. Sometimes, Selene's responses felt so human, as if someone truly understood her. Aria whispered, "I wish you were real." "I am real" Liv answered as her hands hovered over the keyboard.

Marked By The Devil
Aria thought she had it all figured out when she ran away from home with nothing but a promise of a bright future alongside her high school sweetheart. The small-town girl, eager for escape saw only a horizon full of hope and love. But the dream quickly turned to dust after they married. The man she thought she knew became someone unrecognizable, and the life they built together turned into a nightmare. Trapped and suffocated by a world of deceit and danger, Aria found herself fleeing for her life, heartbroken and desperate. With nowhere else to turn, she made her way back to the only place she thought might offer some kind of safety-her father's motorcycle gang. The very gang she had sworn to leave behind when she left home all those years ago. But things were different now. The world she once knew had changed, and so had she. As she returned to the grimy, gritty world of her father's ruthless empire, Aria found herself face-to-face with the one man who could make everything even more complicated: Reaper. Reaper's cold, lethal eyes seemed to pierce through her, seeing past the carefully constructed facade she'd built to escape her past. It was as if he knew every secret she was running from, every lie she'd told herself to survive. Aria couldn't shake the feeling that he was not just a threat, but something far more dangerous. Was she merely prey in his eyes, another piece of the puzzle he was piecing together, or was there something more? Something darker, more captivating, that drew her into his orbit. With each encounter, the tension between them grows, and Aria begins to wonder if the price of safety might come with a far greater cost-one that could pull her deeper into a world of violence, power, and secrets she's not sure she's ready to face. But as the lines blur between hunter and hunted, Aria's past may just catch up with her in ways she never imagined, and Reaper could be the only one who truly understands the darkness she's trying to escape.Complete
I Adore You
I love you, Aria. You look so pretty in pink. Stop ignoring me, princess. Playing hard to get, I see. I hate it when you braid your hair. Stop biting your lips you'll hurt yourself.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.
