Lily's wedding must be perfect.

As her best friend, Yana's role is simple-support the bride, keep the peace, and survive the festivities.

Until buried secrets claw their way to the surface.

Until the last man who should ever hold power over her seizes control.

Dante, Lily's brother, is inevitable. And in his world, to dominate is to break. To rebuild. To own not just the moment, but the hunger itself.

Options are dwindling.
For Yana, the real danger isn't in losing control-it's in craving the surrender.

To shatter and be reborn in ecstasy, or to resist the dark allure of a man who seeks to claim her soul.All Rights Reserved

The Way He Owns Me by SamuelaMiranda

She belongs to him-and he makes sure she never forgets. He's dominant, possessive, and absolutely obsessed. When he wants her, he takes her. Hard. Rough. No questions asked. And she gives in to the heat, the punishment, the addiction of being owned by a man who doesn't share. But power is a dangerous drug-and she wants her own fix. In the aftermath of one night where he ruins her body, she takes control the next morning. Teasing. Taming. Turning the tables. Because if he thinks he owns her completely... She's ready to show him that two can play dirty. Their love isn't soft-it's savage. It's hands against walls, lips that bruise, and moans that never sound like mercy. It's sex laced with war, obsession dripping with need. And neither one of them will surrender.

"𝑬𝒂𝒓𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒓 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒂𝒔 𝑩𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒅𝒐𝒘𝒔 & 𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒔 𝑶𝒃𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏" "𝐈 𝐰i𝐥l f𝐮c𝐤 𝐭h𝐞 𝐟i𝐠h𝐭 𝐨u𝐭 𝐨f y𝐨u, 𝐮n𝐭i𝐥 𝐲o𝐮 𝐚r𝐞 𝐧o𝐭h𝐢n𝐠 𝐛u𝐭 𝐚 𝐭r𝐞m𝐛l𝐢n𝐠 𝐦e𝐬s" "...do you want to break off the engagement with me that much?" "If it's you, you will find a girl who's much better than me. One who will be much more helpful to you. Of course, the company..." His eyes were shining clearly even in the smoke. "All I want is you." He gently swept the back of her hand with his fingertips. She tried to avoid his touch, but he grabbed her wrist and refused to let go. "I've spent a lot of time on this wedding. I took you to an important gathering of acquaintances, and I put a lot of effort into finding a wedding gift and a new house for newlyweds. You've wasted the time of both our families and mine." "So... what do you want me to do?" "Who knows. What should you do?" He inhaled the cigar deeply and exhaled a thick smoke again. As the smoke rolled in, clear tears formed around her eyes. He gently wiped the corners of her eyes. The moment he first met her, he muttered as he stared at her neat face, which made his heart stop. "If you don't like it that much, I can't help it either. We have no choice but to find an agreement." "An agreement...?" "There's something that needs to be gone, right?"

Bruised | Twisted Devotion Book One by TheRealKitKat09

She was broken. He was vengeance. Together, they might set the world on fire. Cassie thought love would save her. Instead, it trapped her-bruises hidden under apologies, silence where safety should've been. Then came Dante Navarro. Cold. Dangerous. Merciless. He didn't save her. He stole her. What started as revenge turns into something darker, something electric-something Cassie swore she'd never feel again. Because Cassie's done waiting for a hero. And Dante? He doesn't promise control. He promises he'll never hurt her like Jake- but he'll burn the world to ash before he lets anyone else try.

Bound by force (Bind her#1) by Shadesofdark1

Temptation lies within darkness... Obsession at first sight. That was how I felt when I saw her for the first time, standing with her friends in her pure white dress, which landed just above her knees. It suited her perfectly as her soul was just like the color of her dress. Pure white. Innocent. Angelic. The moment I saw her, I had the desire to claim her and possess her in every possible way. And I would. I would claim her- mind, body, and soul. By the time I am done with her, she will crave me the same way I crave her. She would need me the way she needs air to live. But for that, I would have to steal her from her life. I would need to Bind her by Force. _____________________ It's a standalone novel.

Monday to Moan-Day | 18+ by JFaniswriting

A steamy escape for your PMS nights. Content Warning: This story contains sexual scenes, themes of infidelity, sexual dominance, and objectification. Intended for adult readers. -------- Mariana, the eldest of four orphaned siblings, has just received the call she's been praying for-her youngest brother has found a heart donor. But the miracle comes with a cruel price: a surgery bill far beyond what a high school graduate, stuck cleaning supermarket floors, could ever afford. With no time, no degree, and nothing but debt and desperation, she's left with one option: accept a proposition that comes cloaked in wealth, secrecy, and unspoken rules. Niel Hunter, heir to a global empire, once chased danger for sport-skydiving from helicopters, diving into pitch-black caves, outrunning fear in machines built for death. But the older he got, the more he craved a different kind of thrill: the delicious high of forbidden touch, the power of orchestrating a secret no one else could see. A secret woman bound to him by contract, not desire. A trembling voice saying "yes, Sir" while the world sees only his flawless smile. This isn't about seduction-it's about surrender. About watching her fall to addiction and knowing every step down was guided by his hand. When their paths collide, Mariana becomes part of his hidden game-paid handsomely to obey, to keep quiet, to serve a man who takes her everything. But how long can Niel keep this twisted salvation hidden from his wife, his daughters, and his family?

caged roses by enchantedlilbiscuit

This is book one of two. A love that feels like a cage. A captor who calls it devotion. A girl who may never escape. Emmaline never expected her life to spiral into a waking nightmare. Trapped in Dante's mansion, she is stripped of her freedom, her choices, and-slowly-her sense of self. His words are as intoxicating as they are destructive, weaving a web of control so tight that resistance feels impossible. Dante is ruthless, dangerous, and utterly obsessed. He calls it love. She calls it a prison. But the lines between the two blur with every calculated touch, every whispered threat, and every cruel act of kindness that leaves her questioning everything she thought she knew. Her mind is his to twist. Her body is his to control. And her heart? That may be the final piece he takes for himself. But even roses that grow in cages have thorns. And Emmaline is about to find out just how much damage she can do before she loses herself completely. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings: This story contains dark themes including: 🔹 Emotional Manipulation & Gaslighting - Dante distorts Emmaline's reality, making her doubt her own mind. 🔹 Physical Abuse & Threats of Violence - Subtle yet terrifying moments of control, including pinning, choking, and intimidation. 🔹 Toxic Relationships & Coercive Control - Love twisted into obsession and possession. 🔹 Kidnapping & Imprisonment - Emmaline is held captive, completely at Dante's mercy. 🔹 Psychological Abuse & Fear - Dante instills constant terror, breaking her down piece by piece. 🔹 Loss of Identity & Self-Doubt - Emmaline's mind becomes her greatest battleground. 🔹 Unhealthy Obsession & Obsessive Love - Dante doesn't just want her-he owns her. 🔹 Depression, Anxiety & Destructive Thoughts - The emotional toll of captivity and control. ⚠️ This book explores dark and triggering topics. Read with caution. Not for the faint of heart. 💔 He says she belongs to him. But will she survive long enough to prove him w

Exultation (18+) by XxdarkparadisexxX

"This room will hold your highest pleasure... and your deepest pain. I'm going to bring you to the edge-until you're shaking, screaming, begging with a voice you can barely use. I'll hurt you in ways that make your body rebel and crave it all at once. I'll beat you. Bruise you. Etch my ownership into your skin. Do you know why?" he asked, voice like velvet-wrapped steel. "Because I own you, Lahni. Every inch of you. Your moans, your tears, your pleasure, your pain-they all belong to me. You're my toy to break apart and rebuild how I see fit." I moaned without meaning to-my pussy pulsed, my skin flushed hot. His dominance soaked into me like heat into bone. And just like that, my will surrendered, piece by trembling piece.

He watched her long before he ever touched her. Back when she lived next door - soft, curious, unaware - she thought his silence meant safety. She didn't know restraint could be more dangerous than desire. He was older. Controlled. A man built on rules he never broke. Until her. One moment shattered everything - a line crossed, a truth exposed - and then time pulled them apart, leaving questions, guilt, and an obsession that refused to die. Years pass. Lives change. But obsession does not age quietly. When fate brings them together again, the power has shifted. He is no longer just a man with secrets - he is a CEO feared and respected, a master of control. She is no longer the girl next door - she is his assistant, standing inches away from the past she never healed from. A secret marriage binds them - not with love, but with silence, tension, and unspoken rules. Every interaction becomes a psychological game. Every look carries history. Every touch feels like punishment... and craving. She tries to survive him with logic. Her heart whispers resistance. Her body remembers too much. This is not a story of comfort or easy redemption. It unfolds in phases - obsession, separation, longing, control - shifting between emotional intimacy, psychological warfare, and dangerous desire. Some chapters burn slow. Some chapters burn dark. Some don't burn at all - they cut. Because this is not just about wanting someone. It's about being claimed before you understand the cost. And when the past finally collides with the present, she must decide: Will she break free from the man who has shaped her in silence... Or surrender to the darkness that has always known her name? 🔞 18+ Only Dark Romance • Psychological Obsession • Morally Grey Slow Burn • Multiple Timelines • Forbidden Desire New chapter - Sunday and Wednesday ( per week )
