Bed of Lies
They broke her trust. They broke his mind. Now the past is back-and this time, it wants blood. Victoria learned early how to survive in silence. Grief became her shadow. Guilt, her constant companion. Because if she had died that night instead of her mother... maybe everything would have been different. But the past doesn't stay buried, and when it drags her back into a world she barely escaped, silence won't save her anymore. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, rage, and the monster his past made him. A man shaped by violence, and driven by retribution. Victoria was everything he should avoid- soft yet unyielding, broken but still standing. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own. She saw too much, pushed too far and worst of all, she made him remember something he buried a long time ago. He hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. What exists between them isn't gentle. It isn't safe or healing. It destroys. And when the truth comes for them both, they'll have to decide: Run. Burn. Or destroy everything in their path.Complete

His Reluctant Bride
He built an empire out of ashes, burying every trace of emotion beneath cold walls of steel and power. She grew up in a world that never valued her, carrying wounds that no one could see. Two broken souls from opposite worlds are bound together by fate. He has wealth, influence, and scars that never healed. She has nothing-except a quiet strength that could shatter his walls. As secrets of the past begin to unravel-mysterious deaths, betrayals, and shadows that refuse to stay buried-what began as an unwanted bond turns into the only thing that can save them both. It is not a story of riches or rags. It is a story of how a village girl becomes the heartbeat of a man who had forgotten how to feel love and how love can bloom even in the ruins of a burnt garden.
