𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗩𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 (̶D̶a̶r̶k ̶R̶o̶m̶a̶n̶c̶e) He was a man cloaked in power, danger, and secrets-a whispered name in the underworld that everyone feared. Damian Black is as ruthless as he is untouchable, a king in a kingdom built on lies, control, and shadows. No one crosses him. No one dares. Until her. Lila Hart has spent her life running-from her past, her pain, and the mistakes of her father. But when her father's debts lead her straight into Damian's cold, calculating hands, she has no choice but to submit. Trapped in his luxurious yet suffocating world, Lila soon realizes Damian is not the monster the world claims him to be. He's something far more dangerous: a man with a broken heart, a man who will burn the world to protect what's his. The more time Lila spends in Damian's dark orbit, the harder it becomes to resist him. He consumes her, body and soul, but his world is not meant for someone like her. As she unravels the layers of his life, she discovers secrets that could destroy them both-and enemies who are determined to tear them apart. In this game of desire, love, and betrayal, nothing is safe-not their hearts, not their lives, and certainly not their souls. Beneath the Velvet Chains is an addictive and haunting tale of passion and obsession. For fans of morally gray heroes, fierce heroines, and a love that blurs the line between redemption and destruction, this is a story you'll never forget. Highest Ranking:

ASHES OF YOU by Lukascarter

"Some betrayals can be forgiven. This one cannot." Lukas was a ghost. Buried. Forgotten. Erased. Until now. Serena Hawthorne built her life on a lie-one that kept her safe, powerful, untouchable. But the past has sharp edges, and when it returns, it doesn't knock. It tears through the walls, leaving no escape. Because Lukas is back. He doesn't want apologies. He doesn't want suffering. He wants control. And he will take it. What begins as a calculated game of vengeance soon turns into something far more dangerous. Hate tastes like desire. Obsession feels like fate. Every touch, every whispered command, every cruel smirk pulls her deeper into the trap-until she can't tell if she's lost in him or if she wants to be. But Lukas isn't here for pleasure. He's here to destroy her. And when he's finished, there will be nothing left. No mercy. No escape. Nothing but ashes.
