SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.

10-Feet Sea God And His 5-Feet Human Bride
For over a thousand years, the Sea God has ruled the endless oceans, his power feared by mortals and worshipped by kings. His storms shape empires, his tides decide the fate of nations.

And each one has failed him. The sea remains silent, barren, and his throne grows colder with every passing century. Until one night, against every law of nature and every curse of the gods, a fragile human girl carries his child. She is everything he despises-mortal, weak, fleeting. He has drowned cities for less than a whisper of human defiance. And yet, inside her grows the one thing he has longed for more than power, more than eternity itself.

Or protect the fragile spark of life that could finally break his eternal loneliness? A tale of forbidden love, divine wrath, and the one bond strong enough to shake the heavens-the bond between father and child.Complete

THE FAÇADE
They say the ocean keeps secrets. I think it just buries them until the tide decides to spit them back out. They wear their masks until they bleed. He hides his rage behind glassy eyes; she hides her scars in silence. Together, they walk the knife-edge between healing and destruction, never knowing which will come first. Beneath the roar of engines and the shimmer of midnight waves, something waits in the woods, in the whispers, in the pages of a journal that should have stayed locked away. Love here is not gentle. It cuts. And in the quiet after, only the darkness remains. Every secret they hid was another stone in their pockets, another pull toward the depths. And the ocean, patient and unblinking, waited for the tide to finally claim them. This isn't a love story. It's a story about masks, bruises you can't see, and two broken souls who were meant to save each other. ~FACADE.
