"No matter how far you run from your past, it always has a way of catching up to you", is a lesson Viola must learn the hard way, after receiving an irrefusable job offer from an old family friend, that involves going back to the place that her life changed forever. Many things transpire within the velvet walls of the Dervishi Mansion. Romance, friendship, mystery, and fear. And perhaps, a rather unusual friend. Is a job paying this well worth the risk of death? Is the fear of death, worth confinement in a mind-melting mansion? At least she has Alistair...or Donivan? Or both? Or maybe, "girls supporting girls" has a new meaning when there is nothing to do inside a house with Velvet walls.

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
The Heiress & Her Scottish Mafia Twins - SAMPLE ONLY
Time to burn it all to the fucking ground.... He was the love of my life. My husband. My mistake. Cole Harrington.... Hollywood's golden boy. The man I pulled from obscurity and handed a career on a silver platter. The man I defended, supported, and loved... until I walked in on him naked in his dressing room, balls deep in his co-star like it was the scene of his life. That was the moment something in me snapped. I'm done being the quiet, supportive wife in the background. My name is Eilidh MacLeod, and I was somebody long before I met him. Scottish Billionaire heiress. Former child star. Acclaimed actress and dancer. The woman who built him... and the one who's going to break him. Now it's my turn. I'm taking back my life, my career, my crown, and I'm burning every bridge, every lie, and every ounce of him to the ground. And somewhere between the chaos, the paparazzi, and the sweet taste of revenge, I meet them. Two men. Twins. Dangerously gorgeous, shamelessly charming, and utterly off limits... except they make me feel more alive than I ever have. They show me what real love is, raw, wild, and unconditional, and they just may run the Scottish Mafia. By the time I'm done, Cole won't just lose me. He'll lose everything. And I'll be walking away with my heart, my freedom... and maybe two men who would set the world on fire just to keep me. THERE ARE ONLY SAMPLE CHAPTERSComplete
My first love
I took a deep breath. "I know you know," I said. My voice was barely a whisper. The words felt huge in the quiet room. Luca tilted his head. "Know what, Iris?" His eyes searched my face. "My crush," I said. My face burned. "On you." My stomach dropped. The words hung in the air. I didn't even try to lie. There was no point. He had seen it. He had always known. But saying it out loud it burned. I stayed still. My eyes stung. ************ He broke her heart once. This time, he'll destroy anyone who tries to break hers. At twenty-two, Iris Darlington finally has her life moving in the right direction. A dream job. Amazing friends. A future she built without anyone's help. Especially not Luca Whitmore. The man who shattered her teenage heart. The man she's spent years trying to forget. But avoiding Luca becomes impossible when fate throws them back into each other's lives. Because Luca isn't the same man she remembers. He's colder. More powerful. More dangerous. And the way he looks at her now makes it clear that forgetting her was never an option. As old feelings ignite and buried secrets come to light, Iris finds herself caught between the life she's worked so hard to build and the man who could tear down every wall around her heart. In Manhattan, power is everything. Love is weakness. And Luca Whitmore is willing to become a monster if it means keeping Iris safe. Even from himself.

Counting Days
[Complete] Nina One day she showed up. The only baggage she carried with her was her father. Everyday, I passed her house on my way to school. She was always outside, sitting on the porch, her hand on her cheek and looking far off into the dirt beneath her. There was something...off about her. About everything in that house. I wish I wasn't so curious. I wish I had not done what I did. And now, I'm paying the price for it. I will never be the same. --- Esther The day she showed up at my house, knocking on my door and introducing herself, I knew my life would change forever. She was completely opposite of me. She was rich, pretty, and popular among many other things. And yet, the more I got to know her, we were similar in many ways. And that is what doomed us in the end. --- A short story filled with new-come friendships, sexuality, crime, drama, and so much more.Complete
Woven in Silence
Seven years apart, yet destiny finds its way back to them. Rivaan - the cold, perfectionist CEO whose world knows him as untouchable, but whose heart once beat only for her. Ekakshi - the girl who lost her past to fading memory and panic attacks, yet unknowingly still carries him in the deepest corners of her soul. Bound since childhood in a fixed marriage that neither truly understood, life tore them apart before they could begin. Now, fate throws them together again when Ekakshi unknowingly steps into his empire again. What begins as routine work soon turns into stolen glances, playful banter, and a love that resurfaces in whispers rather than words. But their journey is far from simple - with rivals circling around, secrets from the past buried in shadows, and Ekakshi's fragile heart caught between fear and belonging. This is not just a story of rekindled love. It's about healing what was broken, facing what was hidden, and embracing the forever that destiny wrote for them long ago. A tale of childhood bonds, mysterious pasts, and the kind of love that no time, distance, or silence can erase. "She was chaos wrapped in charm. He was quiet wrapped in warmth. Together they're home." "But love didn't ask - it Wov them in Silence." "Ek adhura safar... Jisme Mohabbat mukammal thi Bas waqt bewafa nikla." Enjoy..........🥰
