NOTICE: The full version of this book was unpublished from this platform on January 22, 2026. Only the first three chapters remained available as a preview/sample.
The law hates him. Criminals fear him. Someone wants to be him.
Three-quarters of humanity have evolved into superpowered beings bound by a genetic killing barrier. They are the Dominants-incapable of murder.
The rest are Recessives: ordinary, unprotected, and fully capable of killing. Gabriel is one of them.
Fresh out of prison after serving seven years for murder, all Gabriel wants is to go home, reunite with his family, and leave violence behind. But when a serial killer begins terrorizing the city, his own sister calls him a psycho, and a stalker known only as R escalates their twisted game from the shadows, Gabriel realizes something far worse than being hunted:
Someone wants him to keep killing.
Forced back into the role everyone despises - a killer - Gabriel must decide whether to abandon the one skill he was born for or embrace it on his own terms. As he tries to rebuild his life among the capital's elite - college halls, glittering social circles, heirs of power - he's drawn to a woman who hides more than she reveals, and to a truth more dangerous than any crime:
Monsters don't always look like criminals.
And criminals don't always look like monsters.
As the line between justice and cruelty blurs, Gabriel faces a choice he can't escape:
Cling to his humanity and be destroyed by the monsters around him - or fight back and become one himself.
A man branded a killer, trying desperately to live.
He survived juvie. He survived prison. Living might be harder.
A story about power, guilt, and the fragile connections that hold a broken man together - or tear him apart.

Our Secret To Keep.
A delayed flight. A stranger at a hotel bar. A one night stand. Stranded in New York for an extra night than planned due to a delayed flight, I needed to find a way to keep myself occupied, and I soon found that something. It was easy enough when the handsome stranger introduced himself to me as Kade. It has been a while since I have had a hot one-night stand, and he reminds me how fun it can be. There are no questions, expectations or reasons to see one another again. What I don't expect is our night together to come around and bite me in the ass. When I arrive at a family dinner with my parents and two older sisters to celebrate my return home to Scotland, he is sitting right there with them. Not only is he my father's new business partner, but he is my sister's blind date set up by my parents. We pretend to be strangers because things would become complicated if we didn't. No one ever needs to know about what happened between us. My dad would freak out if he found out about us because he is overly protective of me as the youngest, and with the age gap between Kade and me, my father wouldn't approve. My relationship with my older sister is already strained; I don't need to make things worse between us. Even though he doesn't seem interested in her and he tries his best to show that it could still make all hell break lose. My sister hates losing. She always gets what she wants. I should stay away from him, but it is easier said than done with the tension and chemistry between us, and we struggle to fight against it. No matter what happens, it needs to be our secret to keep.
Black Mercy

She's the daughter of a buried past, and the twin of her missing half is still alive... waiting for her without knowing her. When Evelyn returns, no one knows who she is. No one recognizes her cold eyes, her hard steps, the mercy that has turned black. Can someone raised in the shadows return to the light? Or do some hearts... never heal?Complete

They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me.

But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.

How very noble of you, Mr. Lockhart. I don't need your help. I can do just fine." I retorted. "I'm a lot of things, Victoria." Tyler said leaning against the banister. "But noble is not one of them."

I will not warn you a second time. Throw yourself at me, Vicky, and I'll take what I want." *** Victoria Lane and Tyler Lockhart have been best friends since they were kids, and the two have been through thick and thin together. Tyler is fun, charismatic and makes Victoria weak in the knees. What Tyler doesn't know is that Vicky has been in love with him for a long time. Tyler Lockhart has been hiding some skeletons in his closet, he is a billionaire and comes from an influential family; the Lockharts' have been cursed with a life long of bad omen and while Tyler's mother has tried hard to keep him from showing his true nature to society, sometimes, all it takes is one small mistake. When Vicky finds out the truth, things turn from bad to worse and Tyler is forced to leave town. Vicky's life comes crashing down when Tyler steps foot in town almost ten years later, and he's come back with a motive; to stay and to win Vicky back. *** Cover made using Canva WARNING: Story contains profanity, sexual tensions and abuse.
