On a dark night, a shadow stands at a crossroads. A lone horse and rider, silhouetted against the starry moonless sky. Ancient tales speak of spirits who roam these parts after nightfall, striking terrible bargains. Some even whisper the crossroads is a gate to hell itself. The shadowed figure seems in no hurry, content to wait under the darkness of the new moon.
Deals have been struck, and a debt must be paid.
Into this world comes Rosa Delgado. An investigator. A PeaceKeeper. An Alguacila for the Imperium. A non-believer, she has come to catch a murderer and bring them their due. Armed with her wits, her gun, and her unshakable faith in the rational order of things, Rosa is certain she'll solve this case and restore balance. But the locals speak in hushed tones of forces beyond her ken. Of curses, devils, and vengeful ghosts who claim this land after nightfall. Rosa has no time for such tales. She is an agent of law and reason. But what will she do when she is faced with legend made real? Will she solve the murder while clinging to her beliefs? Or will solving the crime require opening her mind to magics and myths beyond her philosophy? On this moonless night of shifting shadows, Rosa's convictions will be tested like never before.

Death of Valentina
The Death of Valentina is a supernatural noir mystery set in the hauntingly quiet town of El Caveto, just outside Mexico City. After three years in early retirement, American-Mexican former investigator Jaxon "Jax" Briggs is pulled back into the shadows when an envelope with nothing but the name Valentina appears mysteriously at his doorstep. Nobody wanted the case. But someone-or something-chose Jax specifically. As he starts to unravel the mystery behind Valentina's death, Jax discovers the town's secrets run deeper than he ever imagined, tangled in folklore, betrayal, and supernatural forces tied to the spirit of Camayota, an entity whispered about by the elders. The murder leads Jax to Maria, a brave and quiet brown Mexican girl with an eerie connection to the other side. Together, they peel back the layers of El Caveto's history-haunted symbols, cryptic mirrors, and a long-abandoned hotel that may be the beating heart of the town's curse. As Jax battles inner demons and terrifying truths, he must confront whether the horror is just beneath the surface-or if it's been living inside him all along. The further he digs, the more reality distorts-until he's no longer sure whether he's solving a murder, or becoming part of one. The Death of Valentina blends psychological thriller, slow-burn horror, and supernatural mystery, wrapped in themes of love, betrayal, legacy, and the terrifying cost of truth. The question is not who killed Valentina... It's what does her death awaken? And can Jax solve it before El Caveto claims him, too?Complete

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 NewaduComplete

"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.
