Every night at ten, he comes.
Jeremy slips into Aurora's home like a shadow-washing her dishes, folding her laundry, and finally sitting at her bedside to play with her hair while she 'sleeps.' He whispers his secrets to her, stories of blood and power, of crimes wrapped in devotion. To him, she's perfect. Untouchable. His.

But Aurora isn't the helpless girl he thinks she is. She's hiding a truth darker than his obsession-because Aurora has killed before. And if Jeremy makes one wrong move, she might kill again.

The 'Innocent' Girl has a Gun and training. 

A game of predator and prey begins, but neither of them are willing to admit which role they truly play. In this house of secrets, obsession turns deadly-and love may be the most dangerous lie of all.

A quiet job in a quiet town, a routine that never hurt, and a heart too careful to fall for anyone too fast. But then he walked in. The new hire. Mysterious. Impossibly attractive. He had the smile of a gentleman and the presence of a man who'd burn the world to keep your attention. He said all the right things. Held doors. Knew how to make her laugh. And when he looked at her-it felt like she was the only girl in the universe. But love, she learns, can be blinding. And not all monsters hide in shadows. Some wear suits. Some call you "baby." Some hold you like you're a prayer-then break you like a curse. Because he has secrets. Dark ones. Dangerous ones. The kind of truths that can't be buried without blood. So now the real question is... Will she uncover who he truly is-before it's too late? Can love survive when it's soaked in lies and obsession? And when she finally sees the monster behind the man... Will she run? Or will she stay?

When Aurora is dragged into the crumbling mansion of five mysterious brothers, she expects cruelty, punishment-maybe even death. Instead, she finds herself caught in something far more complicated. The brothers are not men at all, but vampires locked in a hidden war against a rival clan intent on destroying mankind. Each one carries a power beyond human comprehension, and each one watches her with a hunger she can't decipher. What begins as captivity slowly twists into something stranger, an uneasy companionship, a dangerous attraction. Aurora is torn between fear and fascination as the brothers reveal pieces of their world: their secrets, their vulnerabilities, and the shadow of a war in which she somehow plays a role. But the mansion is no safe haven. Between enemies lurking in the forest, the weight of her debt, and the storm of feelings she can't control, Aurora must decide whether to fight for her freedom or surrender to the darkness drawing her closer.

"You really want that?" he asks. "You want the part of me that doesn't know how to be gentle?" "Maybe I don't need gentle," she fires back, voice barely a breath. Something in him breaks. Rowan's hand grabs her jaw-not hard, but firm enough that she can't look away. His thumb rests under her lip, lifting her chin higher. Her pulse is everywhere. Too loud. Too fast. "Say it again," he murmurs. Too close. Too soft. Too dangerous. She swallows, but her voice doesn't shake. "I. Don't. Need. Gentle." For a moment, the world holds its breath. Rowan's eyes drop to her mouth-slowly-like he's memorizing the shape of it. She doesn't move. Doesn't speak. Doesn't dare. Their breaths mingle. Electric. Violent. Magnetic. Then he leans in-barely. Their noses almost touch. "So you want rough?" he whispers, lips brushing hers without landing. "Yes." ---------------------- He was the school's ghost. A rumor with a pulse. A bruise wearing a hoodie. Rowan Blackwood learned early that softness gets you killed. With a drunk for a father and a little sister who counts on him to stay alive, he traded childhood for survival before he ever hit high school. Street races at midnight. Fights in flickering alleyway light. Drugs passed, blood spilled, ribs cracked-but food on the table. To everyone else, he's the freak who doesn't speak, the boy with haunted eyes, the one you do not mess with. She was the school's shining star. Perfect smile, perfect grades, perfect life-at least, that's the mask. Seraphina Everhart is the golden girl with the world at her feet. Cheer captain. Rich. Worshipped. Untouchable. But no one knows about the brother she protects with her entire heart. No one knows about the ferret hidden in her room or the flour-smudged baking marathons at 2 AM. At school, she is seraphic. At home, she is invisible. Only in the dark does she get to be real.

FALLEN FOR A BAD BOY {BAD MEETS BADDEST} by OMALOVESRED

She witnessed horror... and became one. After surviving a harrowing near-rape and watching her best friend brutally assaulted and murdered before her eyes, Aurora vanished-emotionally. What rose from the ashes was someone unrecognizable: Cold. Fearless. Savage. Untouchable. She trusts no one. Loves no one. And as far as she's concerned, no man alive could ever break through her fortress of ice. Love? Dead. Her rules? Simple. No emotions. No attachments. No second chances. But her new college? A battlefield. And him? Leonard Grande - the kind of trouble she didn't prepare for. Wounded. Rebellious. Addictive. Dangerous. A walking paradox with a face carved by gods and a soul damaged by demons. A notorious playboy who takes pleasure in breaking girls, shredding hearts like paper-because he believes every girl is a liar in disguise. Until Aurora. She doesn't look at him like he matters. She doesn't fall. She doesn't even flinch. And that pisses him off. Now it's war. A toxic game of destruction and seduction. She wants to erase him. He wants to ruin her. But when secrets from the past start surfacing, both realize they've been walking in the dark... and maybe-just maybe-they were destined to collide. How deep do their scars go? And who's really pulling the strings in this web of pain and passion. Dive into a dark college romance where love is a weapon, trust is deadly, and only the strongest survive. When bad meets baddest... there are no rules. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of sexual violence, emotional trauma, murder, psychological manipulation, and abusive behavior. Reader discretion is strongly advised. Some scenes may be distressing or triggering to survivors. ©2025

Destined To Be by leiiii403

She was infatuated with a boy who was mysterious and dark, holding the most reliably darkest of dark secrets. And yet, aware of the warning signs in front of her, she still decidedly trespasses. ✧ ∞ ✧ Chaos, chaos, and more chaos. That was the life of Aurora Brown. While studying in the world of fashion full-time, working part-time in a hardware store and attempting to take care of her monthly rent, Aurora's life just kept getting wilder by the minute. Starting her third year of college, Aurora has just about had enough of her hectic life and was more than happy to skip to the good part. Adoring a college-star basketball player boyfriend on her arm---who is becoming less interesting and more obnoxious by the day---Aurora also now has to fit in another class in order to pass her finals this semester. A business studies class that appears to take place at nightfall. Among all the other things in her own drowning universe, Aurora recently encounters a mysterious boy she's never seen before, who happens to be attending her new night class. With the aura of something dark, but appearing to have something darker hiding behind a pair of even darker eyes, she was utterly and utmost intrigued with this man. And, as sad as it seemed to be, she couldn't help but feel the dead stars in her soul finally illuminate with a flame. Something almost 𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚.

Dangerous Candy by HippieBunni

Lumi sees ghosts. Talks to them. Fights them. Sometimes even flirts with them. She's barely surviving high school, sharing a run-down pod house with her equally unhinged sister, and moonlighting as a medium for hire - exorcisms, hauntings, cursed objects, whatever pays. But when her visions start bleeding into reality, and the dead begin whispering her name, Lumi realizes something darker is stalking her. Enter Jex: a dangerously hot transfer student with golden eyes and a cocky mouth - and a secret monster coiled beneath his skin. He's not just trouble. He's temptation wrapped in combat boots and shadowfire. And then there's Vex - the ghost who haunts her bedroom and her heart, possessive, protective, and in love with her in a way no living boy could match. Torn between a ghost who won't let go, a demon who wants to burn the world for her, and a city teeming with hungry spirits, Lumi's about to learn that being sweet doesn't mean being soft - and being cursed doesn't mean you can't bite back. She's candy-coated chaos with a butterfly knife in her sock. And this story? It doesn't end pretty. !

faultline (twisted devotion, #1) by luhvbcmb

Aurora Kensington has spent years trying to silence the voice in her head-the one that sounds too much like Briar Holloway. The girl who was once her best friend. The girl who came out to her. The girl she pushed away. Now eighteen, Aurora is desperate to prove she's everything she's supposed to be: a good daughter, a devoted Catholic, normal. But no matter how hard she prays, no matter how many rules she follows, she can't shake the feeling that something inside her is broken. And when she sees the lights on in the Holloway house for the first time in years, something deep in her chest stirs. She doesn't know Briar is back. Not until she turns around at a party and finds her standing there. Briar never planned to return to Chapelwood, but with her family drowning in debt and her grandmother's health failing, she had no choice. She tells herself she doesn't care about Aurora anymore-that she only came to this party because she thought it'd be funny. But the second their eyes meet, the past slams into her like a tremor. Old wounds. Old feelings. Ones that never truly faded. Because "love" (if you can call it that) like theirs doesn't disappear. It fractures. It festers. It trembles under the weight of everything unsaid. And if they're not careful, it might just swallow them whole. But none of it truly matters anyway. Not unless Aurora is willing to face the truth about herself. A story about love, sin, and the thin line between devotion and obsession.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒚 𝑮𝒊𝒓𝒍'𝒔 𝑷𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝑨𝒄𝒕𝒐𝒓 by MoonAngell

**𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒌𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒚. He kills people for power. One dare will change everything.** Twenty-two-year-old Auriella Martinez lives for the nights-the parties, the drinks, the dares that pay just enough to forget the bruises her father leaves behind. With her long black hair, blue eyes, and reckless smile, she's the life of every party, the girl who never says no to a challenge. But behind the laughter and the liquor, she's drowning in secrets she can never tell. Then comes the dare that breaks all the rules: kiss Austin Blackwood for a hundred dollars. Austin is everything Auriella should avoid-wealthy, dangerous, and wrapped in shadows darker than the tattoos covering his skin. As a high-ranking member of a secret mafia organization, he's a man who takes what he wants and destroys what gets in his way. He's never let anyone close. Never cared about anyone. Until he tastes the party girl's lips and decides she's his. Now Austin is showing up everywhere-her café, her cheer practice, her favorite bars-watching her with eyes that promise possession and protection in equal measure. He sees the bruises she tries to hide, the pain beneath her smile, and he wants to save her from it all. Even if she doesn't want to be saved. Even if saving her means destroying everything in his path. But Auriella isn't looking for a savior. She's not looking for love. She's just trying to survive until she can escape the prison her home has become. The last thing she needs is a gorgeous, obsessive mafia man who looks at her like she's something worth killing for. As Austin's world of violence and power collides with Auriella's world of parties and pretend, the line between protection and possession begins to blur. Because Austin doesn't just want to save her-he wants to own her, body and soul. And he always gets what he wants. Even if it destroys them both. ---
