"A hero would sacrifice her for the world, but he'd burn the world for her"

Lillian Carter writes about love - the kind filled with passion, pain, and desire. But her other passion-exposing the dangers of technology in the criminal underworld unknowingly puts her in the sights of someone far more dangerous than she could ever imagine.

Christopher Wolfe, the powerful and enigmatic CEo of innovatech, has a secret buried beneath his pristine reputation. He doesn't just chase success - he hunts. And the moment he sets his eyes on Lily, she becomes his newest obsession. 

She doesn't know that her research has brought her dangerously close to a truth she should never
uncover. She doesn't know that Christopher has been watching her, studying her every move, wanting her in a way that defies morality. And she doesn't know that in his world, love isn't soft-it's possessive, all-consuming, and deadly.

He would kill for her. Burn the world to keep her. And if she ever discovered the monster lurking beneath his tailored suit, he knows she'd run.

But the thing about being hunted? There's no escaping a predator who has already marked you as his. 

She was searching for the truth. He was hunting for her.All Rights Reserved

The Shadow of Deadly Love by MrsEunbyul

In the heart of Seoul, where neon lights bleed into shadows, a different kind of royalty holds court. Kim Ayan isn't a king; he is the ruler of the city's underworld, a man whose name is whispered in fear and whose obsession is a cage gilded in violence. Eun-byul is a storm wrapped in silk, a fashion designer whose heart was shattered by betrayal. Refusing to be a victim, she makes a devil's bargain. She doesn't flee the darkness-she walks directly into the lion's den and proposes to the lion himself. Her offer is simple: her hand in marriage for his name as her weapon. It is the perfect revenge against the lover who wronged her. But she soon discovers that revenge has a price far steeper than she ever imagined. Ayan agrees to her deal, but on his own terms. He doesn't want a wife in name only; he demands everything. His love is not gentle-it is all-consuming, possessive, and violent. He will become her sanctuary and her prison, her protector and her greatest threat. This is a dark romance where love and obsession are twisted into a dangerous knot. Eun-byul sought to use a monster for revenge, but now she must survive the terrifying, seductive grip of the monster who decided to keep her. In a game of power and revenge, the greatest risk isn't getting hurt-it belonging to the man who will burn the world down to keep you.

In His Grip by lillieslove123

He says he'd burn the world for her. She never expected him to mean it. Evelyn thought she knew what danger looked like-cold, sharp, and far away. Not quiet hands brushing her hair behind her ear. Not a voice that could break her with one whisper. Damien Blackwell is power, secrets, and obsession wrapped in a tailored suit. Everyone fears him. She should, too. But instead, she finds herself drawn to him-captivated by the way he softens only for her. Until the lies start unraveling. A stalker. A warning. A photo soaked in blood and truth. Now, Evelyn is forced to question everything-how much Damien has protected her... and how much he's destroyed to keep her. But loving a man like him comes at a cost. And she's already in too deep to run. "I don't care if you hate me. Just let me hold you while you fall apart." • Obsession doesn't always look like madness-sometimes, it looks like love. • He'd kill to protect her. He already has. • She became his weakness. And he became her ruin. • In his world, love is possession-and she's his favorite sin. (Currently writing and Editing so the story details can change at anytime. Also this is my first story so please be nice! But I would love some feedback!)

Hard dreams by deerhearz8

Y/N wakes up in St. Lysa's Psychiatric Facility with a foggy mind, a heart monitor strapped to her chest, and no idea how she got there. She's told she collapsed at school. That the stress finally caught up. That her heart couldn't take it. She's diagnosed with depression, dissociation, and cardiomyopathy - a condition that could kill her if she's pushed too far. But that's not what keeps her up at night. It's Theodore Nott. He's a patient too - older, sharper, and colder. Rumored to be violent. Court-ordered therapy, anger problems, insomnia. He smokes out his window every night, watching her through the glass. He doesn't talk much to others. But he knows everything about Y/N - things he shouldn't. He becomes her shadow. Her protector. Her obsession. But the truth is, he knew her before she came here. And he might be the reason her heart's not just broken - it's damaged. Permanently. The closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous he becomes. And the more dangerous she becomes to herself.

Pretty Little Poison by Liminalis_Obscura

*What happens when the prey becomes the predator?* Lily Chen has always been the girl who rescues broken things-stray cats, dying plants, damaged books. At twenty-four, she's built a quiet life working at the city library, volunteering at animal shelters, and avoiding the kind of relationships that left scars on her heart. Then she meets Dr. Marcus Kane. Charming, brilliant, and devastatingly handsome, Marcus seems like everything she's ever dreamed of. He's a pediatric surgeon who volunteers with sick children, a man who understands her gentle soul and makes her feel truly seen for the first time in her life. But Marcus has a secret. He's the serial killer the media calls "The Caretaker"-a predator who targets vulnerable women, breaking them slowly with a twisted combination of worship and psychological torture. And sweet, innocent Lily is about to become his masterpiece. What Marcus doesn't realize is that beneath Lily's delicate exterior lies something far more dangerous than he could ever imagine. When his mask finally slips, when his mind games push her past her breaking point, the fragile librarian will shatter-and from the pieces, a monster will emerge. One that learned everything from the master himself. **The hunter is about to become the hunted.** --- ⚠️ **MATURE CONTENT WARNING** ⚠️ *This story contains graphic violence, psychological manipulation, torture, murder, and dark themes.

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?

Vardhaan : Her only Obsession by roopwrites11

"He was never meant to be hers, but she'll break the world to make it so". ~ ~ Kashvi Sharma ~ ~ She has never begged. She has never known the taste of rejection, the sting of defeat, or the ache of longing-until she saw him. She isn't the kind of woman to fall. She hunts. She takes what she wants, and she never asks twice. But Vardhaan? He is the only thing she has ever truly desired. At 23, she is a name spoken in whispers, the leader of an empire built on blood and power. Beautiful. Ruthless. Unstoppable. A queen who bows to no one. ~ ~ Vardhaan Tripathi ~ ~ A man who isn't meant to be owned. A man who builds empires with a signature and destroys legacies with a whisper. A man who walks through life untouched, uninterested, and immune to the idea of love. At 27, Vardhaan has spent years crafting his empire, turning his wealth into a legacy untouchable by any force. He has been chased by women, feared by men, and respected by those who know he does not play games. ° ° ° And yet, Kashvi is a storm he never saw coming. A woman who doesn't understand the word 'no.' A woman who doesn't just want his love-she demands his soul. "You don't love me, Kashvi." "I don't love, Vardhaan. I claim." What starts as a dangerous obsession turns into a war of control. He refuses. She persists. He resists. She ensnares. She chases, he resists. She controls, he defies. But when the lines blur and Vardhaan starts to fall-will it be love, or will it be war? " Not all love stories are soft. Some are dark. Some are deadly. "

Caught Between Us by RayanaLovelle

Eliana Gwyneth Ledger had always lived by one truth-facts never lie, people do. She was a journalist who never backed down from danger, a woman unafraid to run into the shadows if it meant bringing the truth into the light. Corrupt officials, powerful criminals, untouchable figures-none of them had escaped the strike of her pen. But her latest assignment was different. It wasn't about a criminal hiding in dark alleys. It was about a man standing in the brightest spotlight. Zach Killian Winchester. The young heir to the Winchester empire. Brilliant. Charismatic. A visionary CEO admired by the public, praised by his employees, and envied by his rivals. To the world, he was perfection sculpted into flesh. Yet behind that flawless mask was a secret-a truth dangerous enough to shatter everything he had built. When Eliana's pursuit of the story leads her straight into Zach's guarded world, sparks ignite. Curiosity turns into obsession, and obsession blurs into something far more complicated.
