9× 𝒇𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒚 𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒑𝒂𝒅

Afraid of human contact, renowned ballerina Akhyra Morel is the epitome of grace on stage, but offstage, her icy demeanor keeps everyone at arm's length. When a media scandal jeopardizes her career, Akhyra reluctantly becomes entwined with Lucian Moreno, a rising star of the national Haitian football team.

Lucian, suspended from the quarter-finals of the Gold Cup competition due to a foolish bar fight, finds himself stuck chauffeuring around his coach's spoiled daughter. Initially resentful and at odds, Akhyra and Lucian must learn to cooperate. As Akhyra takes a hiatus away from the attention of the press, she is confronted with a reluctant guardian who would rather be on the football field than playing chauffeur.

In this delicate dance of vulnerability and strength, Akhyra and Lucian navigate a journey from isolation to connection. Will the fiery clash of their worlds lead to a new pas de deux, or will the shadows of their pasts keep them forever entwined in a dance of solitude?

She took a step closer, her eyes blazing with anger. "You want to know what's really unfair? It's that you're mad at me for doing what you should have done in the first place. You should have come to talk to me, should have made an effort. But no, instead you're over here, pouting and blaming me for your own lack of action. You're so-" I cut her off mid-sentence, my hands grasping her face, my lips crashing down on hers in a fierce, possessive kiss. I silenced her venomous words with my own desperate need. I growled to myself, my mind racing with the truth. I was holding back, and I knew it. But I didn't mean to blame her for my own fears. That was just a coward's excuse. But if she wanted me to take action, I was more than happy to oblige. I devoured her lips, my head tilting deep into the kiss. She tensed, her body rigid with surprise, but then relaxed into me, her lips parting to let me in. ----------------------------- Secrets, passion, and a forbidden attraction...

18+ only #1 in Marriage of Convenience [July 2024] "The fewer people that know the truth the better. And if this all goes smoothly, you two will be able to get divorced before the hockey season ends." "I have the places where you both will sign," His eyes lifted and scanned both of us. "But only of course, if you both agree to this." "I'll do it," I said honestly. Minnow sighed outwardly and bit her bottom lip. "If you need more time-" "No," she swallowed, staring at the thick packet in front of us. "I feel like this goes without saying but...no sex. Of any kind. It only complicates things." My cheeks flushed with heat, probably turning pink and Minnow choked. "We won't..." I shook my head, clenching my jaw. Shivers crossed my back. "You don't have to worry about that," Minnow said obviously. "Trust me." ***************************************** Minnow Noel is known for two things: being a hot head and an amazing figure skater. Running from a dark relationship and a past version of herself, she ends up where her skating career all started. Norwegian native Søren Skejeggstad's only focus in life is hockey. With no time for women or a personal life, his only goal is to become the top NHL all-star. But when a major problem arises, he's at risk of losing his dreams if he doesn't figure something out. They were once friends in a past life but now things are cold as ice between them. Just the thought of Søren alone makes Minnow's blood run cold and he'd rather avoid her at all costs. But now an opportunity presents itself and wait...can they get along for a little while or will they end up killing each other before their agreement is through?

Animosity between Humans and Faeriekind has long plagued the lands of Orphic, but began to fade in recent years. However, the newfound peace between species balances on a very thin thread which may soon break. With the emergence of a group known as Ironblades, Faeriekind is once again in danger. These Humans will stop at nothing to see all Faeries, and anyone born of Faerie blood, burnt to ash. Kalian Deirdre may be his people's last hope. It is up to him to infiltrate an Ironblade unit and uncover the true nature of their plot against Faeries before it's too late, but that will prove difficult. Moira Lev is an Ironblade Commander and well known for her hatred towards Faeries. Getting close to her won't be an easy task, and remaining undiscovered will be even harder. Regardless of the risks, Kalian is determined to succeed. He has to, or it will mean the extinction of his species as a whole. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real elements. There are chapters dealing with sexual content, gore, PTSD, child loss (prior to current story), genocide, torture, and other topics which some might find triggering.
