//The Eternal& The Ephemeral//

Rosanne Bard thought getting to her dream university was going to unlock some of the best opportunities of the world-open for her taking, what she didn't anticipate was him. 

Roman Volkov-an academically brilliant genius but his destiny was the ultimate path to power, one even he couldn't stop, but soon he realised power was best safe in hands that didn't covet it, what he didn't anticipate was her.

"Love cascades down rivulets, tracing deceit and overcoming tragedy, lovers turn into warriors once faced with a battle of hearts and minds. So many moments of lies, covered and discarded, Wishing that the illusion of love works just one more time. So tell me now and tell me again, forever is etched in our love, or our love's a dying flame? My mind rushes into every memory of us, decoding, deciphering whether there was a moment you would've undone. So i demand it-tell me now, honestly, are you holding me eternally or ephemerally?" 
~

"I have loved her," He said, his eyes almost bloodshot, as the thunder sounded through the gigantic window frames and cast a light on his frame as he leaned against the table- he looked mighty and powerful, a man on the helm of power, but one couldn't miss the longing and agony in his tone as he continued, "I have loved her 5 years ago, I love her today, I'll love her 10 years from now, and nothing can ever bloody change that."All Rights Reserved

"You looked at me like I was no one. That was your first mistake." Eva Mirova lives in pages-quiet, romantic, untouched by the world she writes about. But fate doesn't ask for permission. It delivers her straight into the line of sight of Ivan Volkov, a man who doesn't believe in chance... only ownership. He wasn't supposed to notice her. He was there for a deal. But one glance-one moment-and she became his next decision. Not for a night. Not for a taste. Forever. She doesn't know his name. He knows everything about her. She runs. He doesn't chase-he commands the world to close in around her. This isn't a love story. It's a dark vow wrapped in silk and sealed in blood. Because when Ivan wants something, he doesn't court it. He claims it. Marries it. Breaks it, if it resists. And Eva? She just became his bride... whether she says "I do" or not.

"You see him as an heir of your empire and not as a family member. All you care about is the inheritance and not the child. If all you want is an heir then why not marry someone and produce as many heirs as you want." She stopped as she narrowed her eyes at him. And then with a mocking expression she continued, "Or is it that you are unable to Re.Pro.Duce??" seeing the angry flush on his face her heart smiled with satisfaction. But before she could celebrate her little victory against him he pulled her from her wrist and she collided with his hard chest. Snaking an arm around her waist he held her tightly as she struggled in his hold. "Don't play with fire, Ms Lilly Jones or don't complain to me later if you end up getting burned."

The Revenge Wife by MaryRose_Author

COMPLETE Let me make this crystal clear, because you don't seem to understand," he said, his voice deceptively calm, but laced with venom. "I paid for you to be my wife. That means you do what I say. You're mine now." He flicked a check toward me, and it fluttered to the ground between us. I couldn't look away from him, though my chest tightened in panic. My hands shook as I fought back tears, refusing to let him see me break. But he wasn't finished. "What did you expect?" he scoffed, eyes narrowing. "This is what gold diggers like you get. Money has a price, and now you're paying yours. Enjoy it, wife." Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving me standing in the massive, empty living room-speechless, breathless, and drowning in disbelief. I never expected this. © MaryRose 2018.

Ashes Of Vow And Solace by lxdylaisorceress

Her anchor. Her solace. Her Husband. He is the stillness in her whirlwind. Nikolai Adrian Petrov, the supreme head of the wicked Bratva brotherhood in Russia, a notorious strategist of the Cosa Nostra, and an emotionally detached, and manipulative lawyer. Everyone envied him for the power he held, and the mystery that clung to him like a second skin. Behind closed doors, he built empires from shadows, orchestrating chaos. He embraces twisted and cunning behavior. He wore control like a tailored suit. Some said he had no heart. Others believed he buried it long ago beneath layers of logic and ice. No one dares and want to cross paths with him; it's a cold embrace of oblivion. The grave they won't escape. His life. His haven. His Wife. She is the calm in his chaos. Svetlana Katerina D'Bianchi, a former successful super model and a hobbyist artist. She's an alluring and decisive woman. She makes her own rules, makes her own way and makes no apologies. She knows what she wants and how to tame it, when to work the angles and when to work her curves. Yet, all of that was cruelly snatched from her by her devious husband. · · ─ ·𖥸· ─ · · They married not for love, but for reasons unclear, Two lives intertwined, yet distant, sincere. No passion, no warmth, no promises spoken, Just quiet routines and hearts left broken. But time, like the seasons, has its own way, And where there was nothing, something began to stay. A bond slowly grew, soft and undefined, Love blossomed, though hesitant, hard to find. Then fate turned cruel, its hand so cold, Shattering what once had begun to unfold. Blame took root where once hope had bloomed, And silent hearts in bitterness loomed. Years passed in shadows, both trapped in their grief, Wounds left untended, no relief. Until a whisper came, with quiet despair-A truth so fragile, a truth laid bare. Time, once endless, now runs thin, Can love survive, or is this the end?

Warning‼️This book contains abtruse topics such as Dark love, Abuse, Violence etc. You have been warned. "I thought after 3months of dealing with my anger, when I finally saw you again the desire to skin you alive and add your pretty skin to my collection would have died down." he said camly looking at me. His game on pause for a second. My heart dropped to my feet. My eyes were wandering between him and the items close to him as I blinked the tears away. "Sylas- please. You have to understand-" I felt more scared seeing as his attention was back on the board and not on me. Dying was an exceptional thing for me but death by Sylas I couldn't even begin to imagine. "Sprich nicht."(Don't speak.) His native tongue did something to me. I gulped being unable to look at his eyes even though they were on the chess board. "What did you think was going to happen Mäuschen?" he asked giving me his full attention. Every Fibre in my body wanted to run, my mind was screaming for me to run but I knew that wouldn't get me anywhere, it would just make him more excited. "Lay your hands on the table." he commanded moving the chess board further from him. I now wished he continued with his game. I didn't want all of his attention. I complied to his instruction with trembling hands knowing I had no choice. "Which finger did you use?" he asked casually grabbing the hammer and standing up causing a sob to wreck through me. I harshly bit into my bottom lip to stop the begging that was at the tip of my tongue, I knew he wouldn't listen, he only just wanted his answer but I had no control over my tears. .. She wishes she never met him, but wishes only come true in fairy tales.

His Dark Claim by Lunasads

"Why can't you let me go?" Her timid voice echoed through the walls of his heart and he heaved a deep sigh. He couldn't. How could he? She was the air he breathed. Blood in his veins. It was so simple and yet he couldn't make her understand. How did their relationship end up like this? He loved her and she loved him, didn't she? Then why? "I cannot do so, Dolcezza. I'll go crazy without you, you cannot leave me, I won't allow you to." And she shook her head, a laugh-filled with disbelief escaping her lips as she struggled to unbind herself from the chains. "Then at least free me of them." "No." A love so vicious it binds. A madness so deep it consumes. Escape is an illusion, and freedom... a cruel dream.

The Professor's Obsession by Rosalina_Writes

Vienne Marlow, a medical student and his intern. She planned on surviving her internship peacefully and quietly-keep her head down, get the credits, and get it done without drawing anyone's attention. But that was before him. Before the late-night encounters, the smirks across lecture halls, the hands that shouldn't have touched her but did. Before she realized her professor wasn't just watching her-he was studying her. Mapping her. Obsessing over every way she could be his. Dr. Sebastian Vale, a surgeon and her professor. He wanted her bent over his desk, legs spread, skirt pushed up, panties on the floor, hair in his fist, screaming his name loud enough for the whole building to hear.
