There's nothing more dangerous than making a deal with the devil-except trying to outsmart him.
Musa has built her life on secrets, wearing new faces, slipping into new worlds, and leaving nothing but ruins behind. Jayden has played his own game for years, striking bargains that always end in betrayal.
But fate has a cruel sense of humor. When their paths collide, they're forced into a dangerous dance of lies, loyalty, and desire. Two players, one game
Two liars. Two lovers. One devil who's been waiting to collect.
Because the devil never forgets-and this time, he wants them both.

Skeletons
He wasn't supposed to want her. She wasn't supposed to want him. But when Josiah's vow to never fall again collides with Ani'Dae's quiet temptation, the spark between them becomes impossible to ignore. Every look lingers too long. Every touch feels like betrayal. And the closer they fall into each other, the louder Josiah's past claws at the present-ready to shatter everything they've built. Desire this dangerous never stays a secret... and some skeletons refuse to stay buried. A love too forbidden to hide, and secrets too dark to bury.
Entangled Hearts : 𝚂𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚜 𝙾𝚏 𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚒𝚛𝚎𝚜
Beneath gilded masks and glittering lies, where every vow deceives and every heart dies, a world of blood-soaked secrets unfolds- where love is a weapon, loyalty is sold, and every heart hides a dagger to hold. Lovers become liars. Families breed betrayal. Every whispered promise drips with danger, every touch carries the weight of destruction. In these darkest tales, Love is poisoned. Lives are mangled. And every destiny is cruelly, fatally 𝔈𝔫𝔱𝔞𝔫𝔤𝔩𝔢𝔡.
Diagnosis:You
He was her most dangerous patient. She became his only cure. She was brilliant. Untouchable. Until one wrong turn placed her in the crosshairs of a man who doesn't forgive... and never forgets. He should've killed her. Instead, he offered a deal-cure the incurable, and she might just walk free. But as forced proximity turns to slow obsession, and guarded hearts begin to unravel, she realizes the real threat isn't his condition... It's what he makes her feel. And the closer she gets to saving his life, the more she risks losing her own.Complete
NEXUM (18+)
𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐌'𝐒 𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐍 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 She's the city's top model. Seen by everyone. Known by no one. She survives by keeping her past sealed tight- every bruise, every secret, every ugly truth locked behind elegance and restraint. Her life is a performance, and she never misses a step. Until she slips... ...and falls straight into the orbit of the man she was taught to despise most. One reckless act- done under the guise of a false persona- sets something irreversible in motion. A line is crossed. A fire is sparked. And the illusion of distance between them shatters. That night leaves her with a hangover, and a realization she can't escape. You don't have to die to go to hell. Some men bring it right to you. He is power without conscience. A presence felt more than seen. The devil everyone fears. She is a mess dressed in designer. A voice that refuses to be silenced. The angel everyone envies. Logic says they should never align. That their worlds, their loyalties, and their sins are fundamentally opposed. Nexum says there couldn't be a better fit. 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 @xplicitlyvenus 2025, all rights reserved

BOOK ON HOLD-- writers block 😔 𝗜𝗩𝗢𝗥𝗬 𝗝𝗘𝗡𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗦 is the perfect little ballerina - soft-spoken, obedient, and untouched by the world that sold her. To everyone else, she's just a quiet girl with lowered eyes and pointed toes. But 𝗥𝗔𝗙𝗔𝗘𝗟 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗢 knows better. He sees the way her hands tremble. The way her smile doesn't reach her eyes. The way she obeys like she's afraid not to. And it pulls him in. She was promised to him-a contract sealed in blood, not love-and now she belongs to a man as cold as he is calculated and controlling. Rafael doesn't crave her affection. He isn't looking to be wanted. What he wants is to unravel her. To possess every piece of the girl the world calls delicate. But Ivory isn't fragile. She's fractured. And the closer he gets, the more she falls apart for him. In a world of shadows, power, and pain, their connection becomes something twisted. Addictive. Dangerous. Because when you give yourself to a monster... you don't get to choose what parts of you he keeps. And when control slips... Desire takes its place. And Rafael never loses.
