In the shadowed village of Eldoria, where secrets fester like a malady beneath the surface, Amber distinguished herself as an enigmatic figure. Her days were woven with the simple threads of life, working diligently in the village library to sustain her father, who battled a mysterious ailment. The village whispered of her peculiar aura, sensing an otherworldly connection that set her apart.

When her father mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind only unanswered questions, Amber's world unraveled. In her relentless quest for answers, she stumbled upon the cryptic abode of his captor. The air hung heavy with an eerie stillness as she ventured forth, determined to uncover the truth. In a fateful twist of fate, she offered herself as a substitute captive, her heart throbbing with an amalgamation of fear and courage.

Within the foreboding walls of the captor's fortress, Amber encountered Adrian, the cursed prince ensnared in the tendrils of a malevolent enchantment. His presence was an embodiment of coldness, a palpable force that seemed to dominate every inch of the castle. His eyes, once warm, were now glazed over with an impenetrable frostiness, rendering him seemingly unfeeling.

Yet, Amber, with the resilience that defined her, refused to be cowed by the oppressive atmosphere. As she navigated the treacherous terrain of the prince's emotions, she discovered layers of complexity beneath his frigid exterior. Her unwavering determination to unearth the humanity buried within him forged a connection that transcended the confines of the curse.

***COMPLETED*** A revamped, modern-day, adult version of the classic fairytale Beauty And The Beast. *** His blazing dark eyes were filled with rage and she finally saw the beast inside him awaken. "You're a monster!" she shouted as the tears rolled down her face in horror. "I don't care what the fuck you think I am! You're mine now and you'll do as I say!" he said in his egotistical deep husky voice. Taking a prominent step closer as he ordered, "Now take off your clothes!" Belle locked her jaw as she held back the tears and with a shaky breath she began to strip down to her laced undergarments. She looked up at his face and saw the wild beast stalking his prey and she began to fume again he had subjected her to such a disgraceful position. She took her dress and with all her might threw it straight at his face in a rage. "You may own me, but take a good look because you will never have me!" She turned and walked to the door but in a quick second, he lunged at her, pinning her against the wall with his strength as his hand ferociously gripped her chin tight, forcing her to keep her eyes locked on his. "You're my wife! You're supposed to give yourself to me!" "A wife is supposed to love you and I hate you! No one could ever love someone like you!"

Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.

"Are you not tired of playing with me?" Luna whispered. The arms curling around her waist, pulling her into a warm yet overpowering embrace, forced her to stop struggling. In front of that formidable man, she was always helpless. "Tired of you?" The deep, resonant voice murmured against her ear, sending her heart into hyperdrive. There was a hint of humour in his tone, as if she had asked something absurd. "Little girl, I haven't even started with you yet." One year ago, Luna made a huge mistake-offending a tyrant whose name chilled countless hearts: Damian Blackwell. He crafted the perfect revenge to satisfy his dark desires. Everything went exactly as he planned until something unexpected happened-he began feeling something for her. His chest tightened whenever he saw her cry. He wanted to hold her, comfort her, erase all her pain. Obsession-that was the only word he allowed himself to use. He did everything to keep her close, clinging to excuses to justify the emotions she awakened in him. Luna hated him for stealing her freedom, for turning her into nothing more than his possession. As confusing new feelings grew between them, would Damian ever realise what he felt was more than obsession? And could Luna ever forgive him for the things he had done? Just when things began to settle, Luna's childhood sweetheart suddenly reappeared, shattering what little stability she had left. Watching her laugh and chat with another man, something dark flickered in Damian's eyes. A violent desire to destroy everything rose inside him. "Luna, you have no idea what you do to me, do you?" Warning: Dark romance. Expect heartbreak, intensity, and mature content in later chapters.
