"Then why did you kiss me?" She demanded, her voice breaking. 
V looked at her with a sadness that cut deeper that words. "Because foe once, I wanted to feel alive."

In a dark, enchanting world where secrets thrive and love is a rebellion, two women from opposite paths find themselves drawn together at an exclusive masquerade ball. One is Esme, a reclusive artist who hides her identity behind the veil of her paintings. The other is Vivienne, a bold and ambitious noblewoman trapped in a gilded cage of expectations. Their chance meeting sets them on a journey of passion, mystery, and defiance against societal norms. 

The story weaves between their clandestine meetings, their struggles to overcome the shadows of their pasts, and the risks they take to be together in a world that forbids their love.

Fated Series. Book #2 "Be possessive of me, own me, keep me, because if you do then nothing and no one else can." - Maddox. My name is Maddox Vallero, and I'm dead. Well, that's not quite true. I'm alive in the breathing, walking, talking sense-but that's about where it ends. The ghosts in my head remind me daily that I'm just a shell. Physically present, mentally shattered. For years, I've let time slip past, ticking away like I'm still trapped in that coffin, six feet under, slowly losing pieces of myself. I gave up long before I even opened my eyes this morning. So when you see me smiling, promising you the world, it's all a lie. And you'll believe it, because I'm that good. Lying, cheating, tricking-it's my game. I'm a master at making you trust in the illusion, even as I turn around and steal everything back. But somewhere along the line, I tricked myself. Now, I don't know where my lies end and the truth begins. My sanity's as fragile as the mask I wear. Then she walked in. The executive assistant I was forced to hire-a woman who sees straight through me. I lie, and she calls me on it. I grin, and she tells me to drop the act. She's the one person who refuses to fall for my games, who somehow slips past every defense I've ever built. And with her, I'm starting to see the shadows I live among. Sounds simple? It's not. Life has its own twisted sense of humor, and fate is a cunning fox that delights in making things messy. I want her, but I've got attachment issues that could bury us both. She wants me, but her commitment issues make her run every time. And together, we're tangled in pasts that haunt us, presents that hurt, and futures that we're terrified to face. This is the story of what happens when two broken people collide, each one daring the other to start taking risks.

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast.

[COMPLETED][UNEDITED] WARNING: Not your typical story. A forbidden relationship awaits you. 18+ I felt his fingers move within me once more, slipping out only to be replaced by two, then three. His wedding ring gleamed in the dim light, now slick with my juices, a symbol of everything wrong with this moment-and yet, it thrilled me to see it there, marked by my pleasure. The sight sent another pulse of heat through me, twisting that forbidden excitement even tighter around my core. "Do you like seeing that?" he asked, his voice low, taunting. "Do you like marking me while my wife waits at home?" I shivered at the raw edge in his tone, my hips pressing harder against him, wordlessly begging for more. "Yes," I whispered, my voice barely a breath. "I love it." _______ On the eve of her wedding, Esmeralda's life was torn apart by her best friend's ultimate betrayal. Two years later, with a broken heart still simmering beneath the surface, she set her sights on her revenge: seducing her ex-friend's husband, Sebastian. What begins as a calculated plot to make her best friend pay for her betrayal soon turns into a dangerous web of desire, where every encounter deepens the pull to that married man. But as their trysts spiral out of control, Esmeralda finds herself caught between the thrill of retribution and a love she never anticipated. When the lines between revenge and passion blur, she's forced to confront the truth-can she truly walk away, or has she fallen too far into the fire?
