i lay there, hopelessly surrounded in a black haze. my eyes are deep, blue, and sunken in. my whole body is breakable, a body of glass.
my husband, duke seibert, went to war. a
gruelling war against our neighbouring country, he is said to have fought against the nations prince. there was little hope. despite his power, there is no doubt about the fact, he will fail, and he will die.
i never believed it, i prayed and prayed and held my hands together, blindly hoping that my husband would march through the duchys gates, unharmed; but after weeks turned into months, and months turned into years, my body caved in. i stopped eating, i stopped moving. i felt nothing but undeniable sorrow. it's been 3 years, and finally, the few soldiers returned from battle -
and the duke wasn't with them.
the news spread quickly around the castle, as i lay hopeless. my whole world has broken apart into tiny splinters, one splinter of hope, and one splinter of sorrow.
wich one will pierce my skin?

The Secret Governess
That's quite a sigh. A man's voice, deep and observant, breaks through the silence. Immediately, I straighten up, as if being pulled by an invisible string. My eyes dart to the source of the voice, and there he stands. Tall and composed with a posture so impeccable that it makes me wonder if he has a military background. A pair of clear blue eyes gaze at me expectantly from behind a mask that molds perfectly to his face. His features are strong and angular, his jawline sharp. His attire is immaculate, every detail of his ensemble meticulously pressed and tailored to perfection. As he steps closer, the tiny golden coat of arms pinned to his chest catches the light, momentarily blinding me. Standing in front of me is the Duke. I lower my gaze. The less he sees of me, the better. All he needs to remember is the lady in the blue dress and my job here will be complete. -- In a world of glittering ballrooms and masked deception, a humble governess steps into the shoes of a rebellious noblewoman, risking everything to save her family. But when a dashing duke takes an unexpected interest in her, the line between duty and passion begins to blur. As secrets unravel and hearts collide, she must decide: will her charade cost her everything? A lush story of love, identity, and second chances, this story promises a happily ever after where true hearts triumph over society's expectations. ** Inspired by the glittering world of Bridgerton.Complete

"What have you done to me?" He asks me and I feel dosed. "You're so fucking tight Marie, I'm going to ruin you." He licks my tongue and picks up the pace but his words are enough for me. I tremble. "Can I?" I ask, but he only answers after ten more pumps. "Yes baby, you can." The mixture of his tone, the softness behind his words and the hard actions injects me with a drug I'll never quit. Nothing in the world could be more wrong than this, the prince and I. But then again, nothing can stop us. ♧♧♧ It was hatred at first sight. What happens when instead of buying a dinzel slave, the queen of Bail kingdom buys a human as the prince and princess's slave?

Reincarnated as the Duke's Misunderstood Wife
I've been reincarnated into the very web novel I used to mock endlessly with my friends-and even in the comment sections. Who could blame me? It was the epitome of clichés: a forced marriage, endless misunderstandings between husband and wife, suffocating angst, the heroine's dramatic escape, and the inescapable regret of the so-called male lead. Predictable, frustrating, and utterly tiresome. Yet here I am, inhabiting the role of that very heroine in 'Husband Is Regretting.' My first priority? Divorce the walking red flag I've been shackled to. But for some reason, the more I ignore him, the more fixated he becomes. And if that wasn't confusing enough, a side character who was supposed to appear only once suddenly approaches me with a bold question: "Shall I be your secret lover?" What on earth is going on in this story? Owner of the cover X\@irt_5433Complete

"Who the fuck do you think you are, talking to me?" The foreign man's eyes looked me up and down, making my skin prickle. The environment was unknown, thrumming with magic I couldn't place. Did this place even exist on earth? " Excuse me? I'm the keeper of this place! And you just came crashing in out of nowhere! And for the record? That's not supposed to happen." The 'keeper' as he called himself, pointed at me, his expression pinched. "And that's my fault, how?" I rolled my eyes, wincing slightly as I shifted my weight off my injured foot. "You're just an annoying little-" I coughed, looking at my hand. Blood? I wasn't supposed to bleed. Not like this. "What was that?" He looked at me cheekily. "Just get me the fuck out of here." "Ha, I don't think so. You're staying here until we figure out why the hell you managed to get through impenetrable magic. Besides, you wouldn't survive the transfer anyways. Not in that state." He eyed me, practically mocking me. "..." I growled. "I'll kill you." "And then you'll never get out, so what'll it be? My head, or your escape. Your choice." God, I hate Wizards. ___________________________________ Welcome back, any of you who have been reading OGB. And if you're new, feel free to check it out. This is an enemies to lovers style book, it's gay, and it's got dragons. Read at your own risk, there WILL be angst. Good luck. 💋😘 -Baby Author
Silence And Honey
Silence and Honey I talked enough for both of us. He listened like he might never let go. Runerth Castellion was the boy with the sharpest eyes and the quietest heart. He didn't talk much-didn't smile much either. But he always showed up. For me. I had known him since we were twelve. Since I decided I was going to be his friend, whether he wanted one or not. I was the chatterbox play school teacher who sings songs about dinosaurs and glue sticks. He was the grumpy heir to a mafia empire no one talks about out loud and a CEO of a heritage company. We were never meant to fit but we did and we did not at the same time. All that until the fate tested us. Tested me. In a world where healing feels impossible, our bond became a refuge, a promise that no matter how dark the night, dawn was waiting. This is a story about the strength found in vulnerability, the power of a patient heart, and the beautiful, messy journey toward a love that saves.

Crown of Ash and Bonds: The Rise of the Flamebearer
I was bred to obey. I obeyed when they gave me to a man I barely knew. I obeyed when my cousin took my husband's bed. I obeyed even when I carried his child. Then he burned me alive.

I am the architect of their downfall. Caelan Vorenthal is my husband's greatest rival. He is a shadow in a court of vipers and the only man who saw the truth when everyone else stayed silent.

Now I choose who burns. ____________________________________________ The Details - A second chance fueled by the memory of fire - The silent marriage and the loud betrayal - The rival ally who should not be trusted - A heroine reborn to take back her agency - Tense attraction that feels like a risk - Slow burn romance and high-stakes secrets - Spicy scenes and intense emotional payoffs - A fight for survival and the ultimate revengeComplete
Through Me
Severus Snape is the last person you should ever desire. For five years, you've clashed like flint and steel, two Slytherins locked in a battle of pride and sharp words. You, a pure-blood who guards secrets, clinging to ideals you've never truly embraced. Him, a half-blood outcast with edges too dark to ignore. Then, alone in a room, a boundary shatters. Everything ignites. Hatred warps into something darker, more intimate, more dangerous. In the hidden corners of Hogwarts, between whispered insults, stolen glances, and secret encounters, you begin to strip each other bare, body and soul, in a slow descent into a passion that threatens to destroy everything you've worked to protect. And maybe... into something you're not ready to face. ------- Juliett Avery x Severus Snape. Sixth year. AU timeline. Hogwarts admits students from age 13. Set during the Marauders era. Snape and the protagonist are both 18. Dark romance. Angst. Enemies to lovers. Friends with benefits. Slow burn.
