Selene was never meant to want.
Never meant to feel.
Never meant to be anything other than Unit 03-a warforged creation of the empire, designed for battle, obedience, and silence.
Her hands were built to wield swords, not to tremble.
Her mind was trained to follow orders, not to question them.
She was supposed to be perfect.
She was supposed to follow without hesitation.
And yet-for the first time, she hesitates.
It should mean nothing. It should be forgotten. Yet, it lingers-the name Selene, given to her by a rogue sorceress named Nyx.
A name should not hold power.
It should not change anything.
But the more she tries to reject it, the more it refuses to fade.
It lingers in the quiet moments.
In the spaces between commands.
In the shadows of forgotten memories that refuse to be erased.
And suddenly, for the first time in her existence, she begins to wonder.
If she is not Unit 03, then who is she?
If she is Selene, then what does that mean?
And if she chooses to fight for herself, instead of for the empire-will she lose everything she has ever known?
War looms.
Betrayal festers beneath gilded loyalty.
But Selene's greatest battle will not be fought with her blades.
It will be fought within herself.
Because this war is not just one of blood and steel.
It is a war against the identity they stole from her.
A war against the truth that terrifies her the most.
A war against herself.
And if she loses-Then she was never meant to be Selene at all.

Love Me Hard
💬 POV - Selene Virella He flinches when I touch him. Not from fear-no, Adrian isn't afraid of me, and that makes him dangerous. He flinches because he wants it. He wants me. I can smell it in the sweat at his collar, see it in the way his throat works when I step closer. That little gasp when I tilt his chin up? That's the sound I'll chase tonight. I've broken men bigger than him. Stronger. But Adrian... he's soft, fragile-looking, and somehow, I want to cradle him while I destroy him. I could bite him now. Drink him dry. Or kiss him until he forgets his own name. Either way... He'll be mine. --- 💬 POV - Adrian Vale She scares the hell out of me. But it's not the knives or the vampire eyes or the way she can kill a man without blinking. It's how she looks at me. Like I'm already naked. Like she knows the part of me that wants to kneel-wants to obey. I hate that I want her to take control. I hate that I want her to hurt me a little just to prove I can survive her. But mostly... I hate that when she whispers my name, soft and dark like a secret- I'd give her anything. ~~~ Selene moves like a loaded gun - precise, deadly, and made for war. She doesn't fall. She takes. She doesn't love. She marks and moves on. A vampire mercenary with a past soaked in blood and secrets, she's used to commanding rooms and breaking men. Pain is her power. Control is her drug. Then there's him. Adrian Vale, the hacker she's forced to work with, is all soft lips, oversized hoodies, and that wide-eyed look that makes her fingers twitch. He's a walking contradiction - brilliant and awkward, sweet but sinful, trembling under her touch yet burning with a fire she didn't see coming. He submits like a prayer, and it wrecks her. But Adrian isn't just some shy coder-he's got shadows of his own, wounds he doesn't show, and a wild streak hidden beneath his pretty mouth. What starts as manipulation turns into obsession. What starts as fake becomes filthy, then too f**king real. Love Me Hard

Between Her Hands and God
In a world that rarely makes room for girls like her, Deejay Jackson moves through life with quiet strength and untold scars. At 20 years old, she's tall, dreadheaded, masc-presenting, and intersex - born with both softness and edge, both woman and something the world struggles to name without shame. After surviving three years of childhood sexual abuse and growing up in a home led by a single mother raising five kids, Deejay has finally started to find her footing - reconnecting with her family, embracing poetry, and slowly letting herself breathe again. Sharon, also 20, comes from a deeply religious Black home where silence is sacred and image is everything. Feminine, sweet, and still figuring herself out, she's known since high school that she likes women. But her family, especially her mother Miss Eleanor, doesn't make space for that kind of truth. Not openly. Not safely. And definitely not when it comes to someone like Deejay. When a summer of chance reunions and unsaid feelings finally brings Deejay and Sharon closer, the chemistry is undeniable - but so is the weight of their worlds. What begins as stolen glances and heartfelt texts blooms into a slow-burn bond thick with tension, poetry, faith, and desire. But their love is shadowed by fear - of rejection, of judgment, of what it means to be fully seen. Through late-night drives, heated game nights, and balcony confessions, they find themselves inching closer - not just to each other, but to the parts of themselves they've both been taught to silence. This is a story of longing and restraint, family chaos and chosen tenderness, faith and unlearning, shame and softness. It's about two Black women navigating what it means to be whole in bodies and homes that have tried to break them. And when they finally meet in the middle - messy, vulnerable, and unafraid - it's not just about falling in love. It's about fighting for the right to.Complete
Queen of Bargains: Monsters Under the Mountain
Selene was never meant to be part of this world. She had once been a medical student, living an ordinary life filled with textbooks, late-night study sessions, and the quiet certainty that magic was nothing more than fiction. Then, she woke up in a world ruled by monsters. For twenty-five years, she has survived on the outskirts of a human village, healing where she can, hiding where she must. She knows little of the High Fae, their courts, or their treacherous games. She knows only whispers-of a wicked queen named Amarantha, of a war that shattered kingdoms, of a High Lord with violet eyes and a smirk sharper than a blade. But when a raid on her village drags her Under the Mountain, Selene is thrust into a world of cruelty and deceit. Powerless and human, she should have been nothing more than another disposable servant. Instead, she catches the eye of Rhysand, Amarantha's right hand. To the world, he is a monster. A traitor. A willing pet in the queen's twisted court. But Selene has seen him at his most powerful. And now, she has seen him at his most broken. Forced into servitude, trapped in a palace where humans do not last long, Selene must navigate the deadly politics of a court built on suffering. But as she uncovers the truth hidden beneath Rhysand's carefully crafted mask, she begins to question everything she thought she knew-about this world, about him, and about the war that looms on the horizon. Because it was not fate brought her here. She was the obstacle to his fate. And fate is watching. all rights reserved to the original authorComplete
UNDONE BY YOU
Darkness. Firelight flickers. Her voice cuts through the silence-soft, steady, dangerous. "If you burn my world, Malcolm... I'll be the one handing you the matches." He goes still. Breathless. As if her words have carved open the last piece of him he tried to keep hidden. She knows what he is-broken, relentless, obsessed. But she doesn't want perfection. She doesn't want safety. She wants him. And when he kisses her, it isn't soft. It's hungry. Raw. Years of pain and silence exploding in one desperate collision. "If I do this," he whispers against her lips, "there's no undoing it. You won't just be mine. You'll be claimed. And I don't let go, Selene. Not ever." Her answer is barely a breath- "I don't want you to. I never did." This isn't a love story. It's fire and ruin. Obsession and surrender. A bond that refuses to break, no matter the cost. Because when love becomes war, there are no survivors... only the ones willing to burn.
Poisonus Love(Blackhat x Fem!Reader)
'No one talks about the blood and dirt underneath your fingernails when doing the right thing, which was always considered too hard to be done.' Y/n always fought for what felt right. Not for glory nor praise. And definitely not for any self-righteous, spotlight-hogging hero who always had people treating them like legends in a time of history. Life begins bringing reluctant alliances. Thankfully, Y/n learns important key details. One's she wished she had known before meeting a powerful, demonic cryptid. Chaos dressed with elegance, he- a monster content with watching the world cower before him- recognized a familiar fire in Y/ns eyes. They'd bring a messy rivalry with many kinds of wrong she wanted to avoid. Struggling to stay away from a strange mark upon her, he felt a pull that only grew more as time moved on. Something within the chaos that both adored began pulling them closer. Close enough that flirtation would meet fury, and morality would bend for the other's sake. Both couldn't know just how hard it really was to avoid falling. "That's one badass lasso wonder man!" "For a dead girl, you don't look too bad without much on." Dying in such a way where her body deems it almost impossible to pull her soul back. Even then, she'd come back, yet feel the full force of being forced back into her broken vessel. "She's only telling us this because it's fanfiction...!~" WELCOME TO POISONOUS LOVE!!! SOMETHING I'VE BEEN WORKING ON FOR OVER A YEAR(Yet haven't uploaded a damn thing about- UNTIL NOWWW) TW- violence, blood, death, suicide, contains (probably) smut, lemon, lime- all of that.

SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.
