Beneath the mask 🎭 by StoryWeaver_28

Prologue The masquerade ball was not what it seemed. Beneath the laughter, beneath the glittering masks, there was a dark undercurrent-a game, a deadly one. No one knew it, not even Aisha, who had been swept into the mystery that night. She came in with a simple invitation, a promise of intrigue and excitement. But what lay ahead would change her life forever. As the night deepened, the games began. And once the game started, there was no turning back. No one could leave. No one could escape. Aisha's thoughts raced as she tried to make sense of the twisted messages, the cryptic riddles that seemed to lead her to something far more dangerous than she could ever imagine. The shadows in her life were closing in, and with every passing hour, they grew darker, more suffocating. Her husband, Yash, had no idea what was happening. He remained a figure of warmth in her cold, distant world, and now, she found herself entangled in a game that might just cost them both everything. The players were unknown. The rules, even more so. But one thing was certain-the game had just begun. And Aisha's choices would determine the fates of everyone involved. Would she unravel the mystery before it was too late? Or would the mask she wore for so long consume her entirely? In the shadows, someone watched. Someone waited. And in the end, no one would leave unscathed

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult

Veiled in Light and Ruin by jemicahcolleen

Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

Unseen shadow | Mafia Kade and Elara | by darkromance_hub23

{Unseen Shadows}🌑🖤 --- Last warning, Elara. Safeword now, or. "Please.. "Elara begged him again".. His face darkened, a cruel smile spreading across his face. "Too late." He grabbed her hips, lifting her up and positioning himself between her thighs. She tensed, her body bracing.......read more.. The city of Ember Hollow was alive, bustling with secrets that danced through the streets like whispers in the night. Everyone knew who controlled it all-the mafia boss, Kade Alistair. Ruthless, sharp-eyed, and powerful, he ruled the underground with a fist of iron. His name alone made men tremble and women disappear behind closed doors. But to the outside world? Kade was nothing more than a shadow, lurking just behind the veil of ordinary life. Kade had his own rules, his own empire. He didn't care about the outside world of kindness and naivety. All that mattered was power, control, and keeping his enemies in line. A cold-hearted king, untouchable, invincible. On the other side of the city, Elara Blake lived a different kind of life-one filled with light. She moved through the world with soft steps, kind words, and a gentle heart. Elara worked at the local flower shop, her days filled with the sweet scent of roses and the warmth of sunlight filtering through glass windows. She was the kind of girl who smiled at strangers and found joy in the smallest moments, unaware that her peaceful world was built on the foundations of darkness she couldn't see. Ember Hollow was a world divided. Kade's shadows ruled the night, while Elara's kindness bloomed in the daylight. Two worlds, completely separate, completely unaware of the other's existence...
