They are lost souls, wandering the streets in the dead of night, unseen by anyone but her. When she meets Damien Ravenscar, a brooding man with a cryptic past, she's drawn into a world of immortals cursed to live in the shadows. At the heart of their existence lies a dark ritual, one that demands a sacrifice every decade. And Damien is next. As Lyra unravels the truth behind his fate, she's faced with an impossible choice: let him go or save him, condemning herself to the same cursed eternity.
In this haunting tale of love, fate, and sacrifice, how much is a soul worth, and how far will she go to keep his?

WHISPERS OF EMBERLIGHT
Magic was banned in Elarion long before Lyra Vale was born - but the power in her blood refuses to die. Hidden deep in the woods, she heals in secret, trading pieces of her life to save others. Each touch costs her a year, a memory, a heartbeat. And yet she cannot stop. When a wounded soldier collapses at her door, Lyra breaks her one rule: never heal a stranger. But Kael Draven is no ordinary man. His heart carries a curse - one that silences all emotion and devours anything close to love. As war brews and old gods stir beneath the earth, their fates become entwined - one born to heal, one cursed to feel nothing. But love has a way of rewriting even the cruelest destinies.Complete
Never His
She loved in silence, but silence was never enough...A Love That Was Never Meant to Be... Lyra Hart loved Damien Sinclair in a way the universe never allowed-with quiet glances, stolen moments, and a heart that beat only for him. But to Damien, she was just a familiar presence, she was just his sister's best friend-nothing more, nothing less, a shadow in the backdrop of his life. He belonged to another, and Lyra? She was never his to begin with. So, she smiled at his wedding, swallowed her unspoken love, and walked away. Years passed, and distance was supposed to heal what love had broken. But then came the call-the one that pulled her back to a place she swore she'd never return to. Damien's wife was dead. Murdered. And the man she once knew had vanished, leaving behind only grief, rage, and an obsession to unearth the truth. Now, as she stands beside him once more, bound by a past she never truly escaped, Lyra makes a choice-to help him chase the shadows of a mystery far darker than either of them imagined. Even if it means standing in the ruins of a love that was never hers. A slow-burn tale of longing and loss, love and betrayal-where the heart aches for what it was never meant to hold, and the truth waits in the silence, waiting to be found.
Whispers of the Abyss
The city is plagued by whispers-shadows that slither through alleyways, unseen hands that brush against skin in the dead of night. Seraphina Duskborne has always felt them watching, lurking just beyond her reach. But when one finally steps into the light, she realizes she was never meant to be ordinary. Lucian, a being woven from darkness and desire, was sent to claim her soul. Bound to the Abyss, he is a hunter of wayward fates-a creature with no heart, no mercy. Yet, something about Seraphina unsettles him, tempts him, makes him hunger in ways he shouldn't. She is not just a mortal. And he is not just her executioner. As their fates intertwine, Seraphina finds herself trapped in a dangerous game of seduction, secrets, and power. Lucian is both her captor and her obsession, his touch sinful, his presence inescapable. But there are greater forces at play-forces that want her dead, and Lucian broken. In the end, one of them must fall. But will it be to darkness-or to desire?Complete
SWIM
-RENEE RAPP FANFICTION- -DARK FANTASY- --- She met a monster on the bridge and let it save her. Lyla Evans didn't run away looking for a second chance. She ran to disappear. A broken home, a bruised past, and no one left to care if she made it out alive. Her plan was simple: get far enough away, and end it all quietly. Then she meets Reneé Rapp. World-famous singer. Pop darling. The kind of girl who's supposed to be on magazine covers, not leaning over a cigarette on a freezing New York bridge at 3AM. Reneé offers her a place to crash. No questions. No promises.

She's the queenpin of New York's most elusive cartel. Lyla swears she doesn't care. She's never even liked Reneé's music. But every time she tries to walk away, she finds herself pulled deeper-into Reneé's world, into her touch, into a twisted kind of love that looks too much like danger. She told herself she wouldn't fall. She just didn't know how to swim. ---Complete

THE STREET ARTIST AND THE CEO
When worlds collide, sparks fly in the most unexpected places. Aria Vale lives for the rhythm of the streets-her days are filled with splashes of color, murals on hidden walls, and the freedom of expression that only art can give her. Independent, fierce, and unafraid to break the rules, she has no interest in the corporate world or the people who control it. Damian Cross is the opposite-powerful, calculated, and ruthlessly ambitious. As the CEO of one of the most influential real estate empires, his life is dictated by schedules, deals, and a constant need to stay on top. But behind his cold exterior lies a man who once dreamed of something more than boardrooms and bottom lines. When Damian's company threatens to demolish a neighborhood that houses Aria's most meaningful work, their paths cross in a heated confrontation. Neither expects the undeniable chemistry that follows-or the way they challenge each other's worlds. As passion blurs the line between love and hate, Aria must decide if she can trust the man who represents everything she stands against, and Damian must choose whether to follow his heart or the empire he's built. In a city where every wall tells a story, theirs might be the most unforgettable of all.Complete

And with every fight, every sarcastic barb, and every secret half-spilled, Eira starts to wonder who is really holding the chain. Enemies. Prisoner and captor. Hunter and hunted. But what happens when fire meets storm-and neither is willing to break?
