Trapped in a secret underground lab since birth, 18-year-old Lyra has endured years of brutal experiments, injected daily with mysterious serums designed to push the limits of human ability.
As a result, she can run at infinite speed, but her life is a blur of isolation and pain, never knowing anything beyond the sterile white walls and the scientists' cold indifference. That is, until a sudden raid on the facility changes everything.
Deon, a 22 year-old feared mafia don known for his ruthless, emotionless demeanor, leads the attack. Unpredictable and merciless, Deon has built an empire on fear, with enemies too terrified to cross him.
But behind his icy exterior, he is fiercely protective of the few he considers family. When he discovers Lyra in the lab, something in her broken, haunted eyes stirs an unspoken connection. Despite his cold, calculating nature, Deon decides to take her under his wing, a choice that baffles both his allies and enemies.
Now, Lyra must navigate a world of crime and violence with her newfound freedom, while Deon remains an enigmatic protector, willing to slaughter anyone who threatens her. Together, they are an unstoppable force-her speed and his cruelty-bound by a shared past of darkness and a future fraught with danger.

A Covenant Of Flesh
She was meant to vanish. Every Terran knows what it means to be Chosen: you never come back. Lyra Sefu is no exception. Just another name on the Ascendance list, selected for the Virexari breeding program under the guise of a peaceful exchange. But when she's claimed by Kaelen Tharien, a hybrid royal engineered for control, something fractures. Even though he is genetic perfection, Kaelen cannot look away. Her defiance undermines his directives. Her scent rewrites his instincts. Her touch ruins protocol. And when their psychic imprint triggers a forbidden bond, their bodies become battlegrounds for history, obsession, and the remnants of a broken covenant no one dares speak of. She is the last human who should have survived. He is the last Virexari who should have surrendered. But the covenant is cracking. ⚠️ Overall Content Note: This book is dark low sci-fi romantasy with heavy exploration of trauma, consent, systemic abuse, and erotic power dynamics. Readers sensitive to sexual violence, coercion, or psychological trauma should be advised before engaging.Complete

Bloodlines and Bullets
What happens when you're in the wrong place at the wrong time? She is just at the beginning of her year-long world travels when she falls into the hands of him - an Italian mafia Don driven by the thirst for answers and revenge. When there is something else thrown into the mix - obsession. But is it the healthy kind? -- "I can see it, you know," he continues, his voice as smooth and dangerous as the edge of a blade. "The fear you're trying so hard to hide. The way your hands tremble ever so slightly, the way your breath catches in your throat when I'm close like this." My hands instinctively curl into fists at my sides, nails digging into my palms as I struggle to maintain control. He tilts his head, studying me like a predator sizing up its prey, his proximity suffocating. "You should be scared," he says, the words laced with an unsettling certainty. "Because when I'm done with you, there won't be anything left of that defiance you're so proud of." A shiver runs down my spine. "I've faced worse than you," I manage to grit out, though my voice is barely above a whisper. "And I'm still standing." His lips curve into a sinister smile, a glint of something dark and twisted flashing in his eyes. "We'll see how long that lasts." "Let's go." "No." --Complete
