"Contentment is the enemy of progress. If I'm happy, I'm stagnant. So I ruin everything I touch-before it ruins me first."
Set against the sun-bleached backdrop of South Florida, With Teeth follows Louis Desmarais --an obsessive writer who plans everything to a fault, even his own self-destruction. Louie isn't chasing healing. He's chasing silence. Control. Anything that feels predictable-even if it bites him with fangs.
Likened to an instruction manual for learned helplessness, this isn't a redemption story.
It's a slow unraveling.

It's in your eyes
Alex has spent years chasing lust but never finding release. Every touch is empty. Every man, just another distraction from the scars buried beneath her skin. Then V returns-sinfully handsome, exuding dominance, and with a mouth that promises ruin. He doesn't ask. He takes. And for the first time, Alex doesn't want to run. With him, desire is a storm-blinding, relentless, raw. Each orgasm strips away her defenses. Each demand makes her crave more. He's the only man who's ever made her feel alive... and the one who could destroy her completely. Because the man who teaches you how to live will also be the one to own you-heart, body, and soul. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of child abuse, sexual assault, grooming, domestic violence, and suicidal thoughts.

Bookstore Boyfriend
He's the kind of man your friends warn you about. Tattoos, leather, and a full-face helmet that hides more than his face. But when he shows up at Ava's bookstore, he doesn't just buy books, he leaves pieces of himself behind. Notes. Thoughts. Secrets. And Ava answers. Soon, the margins of a novel turn into something more: late-night messages, inside jokes, the kind of chemistry that burns slow and steady until it's impossible to ignore. But every mystery man has a past. And Ava is about to learn that some love stories aren't written in ink, they're written in scars.Complete
Her Secret| ✓
™ This book is now self published through Amazon Kindle under the same name ™ Dear Erik, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you everything, after that day at Nina's, so much of everything had changed. They tell me visitors would do me no good in this condition, and if I can't do it in person, I'll write it in this journal, just like I was talking to you over a roasting cup of coffee. I'm so sorry that I can't tell you all this myself, but I hope that as you read this journal, you'll understand why I had to do what I did. I was alone and afraid that I would go mad; I needed help. Four years can't bring back the people we loved, but don't be worried about me, someday I'll return. ______________________ ⇊More Details Inside⇊ ♡ Please Enjoy, Vote & Share ♡Complete

Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.

The Emperor: A Tale of Loyalty and Betrayal
An Empire built on loyalty. A betrayal that never stopped echoing. Once, the Emperor ruled the stars with unshakable faith in one man, his Royal Advisor. Now, the Galaxy trembles beneath the scars of that trust. Weapons forged in obsession became artifacts of madness, shattering the Empire and breaking an ancient friendship. Their creation cost everything the known worlds once had. Somewhere in the void, the Emperor may still watch the Galaxy burn... Perhaps he never truly left his throne. In a universe where power demands worship and broken trust makes the world burn, one truth remains: Devotion became a curse. A dark science fantasy about loyalty, betrayal, and the price of devotion.
