A STANDALONE DARK ROMANCE STORY


She should be dead.
I was supposed to kill her.

Blaire du Pont is a sight to behold. With porcelain skin, eyes that hold the entire world within them, and voice that makes every drop of word sound like a lullaby, to everyone else, she's a dream.
But not to me. To me she is a nightmare, the one that keeps me awake at night and the one that occupies my every single thought. One mission. One deal. One death. That was all that stood between me and the purpose of my life. I should've killed her the moment I saw her. But something about her restrained me and I couldn't grasp it. By the time I realized what it was, it was too late. Her life is mine to take, and not even the Devil can interfere.

He was a ghost, until he wasn't.
And he was supposed to kill me.

Theo Saints is every bit of the danger he claims to be. I know it. I've known it for a while and yet that doesn't faze me. He said he was going to kill me, he didn't. He said I should be scared, I wasn't.
A drowning person will clutch at a straw. That's what he was to me. Like a whirlwind, he threw me upside down. He is the ghost who has been haunting me but I know his secret. He is not the only one haunting and I am not the only one haunted. He said he'll ruin me, and I know he will. Ruination comes both ways, we are all ghosts in someone's past, present or future. And if I go down, I'll take him with me.

✦ 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 ✦ A Dark Royalty × Mafia × Obsession Romance He was born a devil. She was caged like a queen. And now... she's his favorite sin. "You weren't stolen. You were chosen." Kiara Rathore - hidden princess of a powerful royal family, locked away in a dungeon the world forgot. Twenty-one years of silence. No light. No love. No freedom. Only golden lies and blood-soaked truths. Until one night... she escaped the palace. And fell straight into the hands of Aarohn Warner. Asia's most feared mafia king. Brutal. Obsessed. Unforgiving. He doesn't ask. He takes. And what he takes, he never returns. "I burn empires for fun, princess. Imagine what I'll do for something that's mine." No one survives him. No one controls him. But her presence? Her defiance? Her innocence? It doesn't break him-it consumes him. She thought she ran from one prison. But she just stepped into a darker one-where the bars are silk, the walls are obsession, and the devil has her name engraved in his veins. Now there's no escape. No mercy. And no turning back. Because to him, one truth remains: "Darling, you're mine... and I don't share." ⸻ Standalone Dark Romance ⚠️ Contains possessive themes, mature content, twisted love, and royalty-meets-mafia intensity. For readers who crave dark power plays, forbidden fates, and obsessive kings. She wore a crown of silence. He gave her a throne of sin.

𝐀 𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓 𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐁𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐅𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐃'𝐒 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑. Book 1 in "Dark Fate" series. "They say you can't choose who you fall in love with, and he couldn't agree more. His sister's best friend had captured his heart, and he was consumed by his obsession for her and now, he knows he would never be able to let her go because she belongs with him." • ✧ • There's a kind of love that feels like sunlight - warm, gentle, safe. And then... there's his. It's not cruel. It's not loud. It's something far more dangerous - quiet, calculated, all-consuming. He was my best friend's brother. The man I was never supposed to notice. He watched from the shadows, memorizing me without ever needing a single word. I never really knew his name... but he knew everything about me. My fears. My patterns. My dreams. Even the parts I hadn't yet discovered myself. He's always been there, just a step behind-waiting, watching, wanting. And now, he's no longer waiting. He calls it love. I don't know what to call it, only that it pulls me in like gravity - unavoidable, inescapable. There's safety in his arms, yet danger in his silence. Gentleness in his touch, yet fire in his gaze. And somewhere in the tension between fear and longing, I find myself unraveling. Because the scariest part of being wanted like this... Is realizing you might want them back.

26 parts Ongoing Mature
Kaya Emerson has spent her entire life being made to feel like she's too much, too big, too emotional, too unlovable. Raised in a house of cruelty where her stepmother's venom runs deeper than blood, Kaya's only goal is to survive the day, shrink herself, and never be seen. Until she witnesses a man being murdered. And the killer turns to look at her. Cold. Dangerous. Beautiful in a way the devil himself would envy. 𝙉𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙖𝙨 𝙍𝙤𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙤 - mafia king, calculated killer, a man who turns bloodshed into an art. She runs. But he hunts. And when he finds her... he doesn't kill her. He keeps her. "You think I'll let you walk away, tesero? After you saw me at my worst? No. Now I need you to see me at my darkest... and still beg for more." Locked in his penthouse with secrets, diamonds, and demons, Kaya finds herself fighting not just for her freedom, but for her sanity. Because the man who should terrify her makes her feel seen. Wanted. Desired. Protected. Worshipped. Even as he drags her deeper into a world of violence and obsession. "I'll ruin you for anyone else, Kaya. They'll look at you, and you'll still be dripping with my name." He's possessive. Ruthless. Addicted to her curves. She's broken, insecure, and dangerously close to falling for her captor. And the scariest part? She's starting to like the way it feels to be his.

𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐑𝐎𝐓𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐒. 𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐈𝐍. Book 3 in "Dark Fate" series. "She gave him her songs and her secrets, but he gave her something far more dangerous - an obsession so fierce it demanded that only he could break her, hate her, and own the space no one else dared enter." • ✧ • Diana Forbes was never meant to be a villain. She was the voice of heartbreak - a global icon whose songs bled truth, desire, and a kind of ache most people couldn't name. But behind the sold-out tours and midnight ballads lived a woman quietly unraveling... one forbidden love song at a time. Because the man she wrote for was never hers. Eeshan Singhania - cold, controlled, and cruel in ways that didn't make sense until it was far too late. He was her step-sister's boyfriend once. The kind of man you shouldn't look at twice. But Diana did... and she never looked away. He says he hates her. But obsession doesn't look like hate. It haunts. Punishes. Possesses. Claims. Destroy. He hates her with a venom no one else is allowed to taste - and breaks her just enough to keep her tied to him. Because if anyone's going to ruin Diana Forbes, it'll be Eeshan Singhania. She should've run the first time. She didn't. And now... She's the girl every song was written for. And the woman he'll destroy piece by piece. But what happens when hate starts to ache like love? And what if the girl he wants to ruin... is the only one who could ruin him?

They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*
