"I will obey you. Serve you. Heal for you. Die for you-if that's what you want. I'll be loyal only to you until the day you decide I'm no longer useful," she said.
The firelight danced across his physique as his face stayed still.
"I could make you do all those things as we speak." Lord Varric's voice was laced with threat.
"You could," Silvia said clutching her hands to fists, "but not ever without a fight."
-------------------------
When Silvia's village is burned, the survivors are dragged to the war camp of Lord Varric - a ruthless warlord whose name is spoken like a curse. She appears broken and obedient, but her eyes are sharp, her mind unyielding. His men are forbidden from touching the enslaved women of her village-not out of mercy, but because they are coin to be sold. Yet they do not listen.
Desperate to protect what's left of her people, Silvia breaks free from her binds one night to tell the lord himself, only to be struck down before Varric's eyes. She survives through the power of her healing - and learns quickly that his men's crimes don't seem to sway him.
With nothing left to offer in return for her villages protection, Silvia pledges herself - her body, her gift, her loyalty - to the man who destroyed everything she loved. An oath of loyalty, fear and unshakable resolve. Lord Varric accepts, not out of compassion, but calculation, keeping her close as a weapon, a healer, and a mind to sharp to waste.
Yet even under his cold command, Silvia refuses to break. And behind her quiet defiance, Varric finds himself torn - driven to crush it, yet unable to look away from it.
A dark fantasy romance of war, loyalty, and the perilous line between ruin and desire.

Crown of Ash and Bonds: The Rise of the Flamebearer
I was bred to obey. I obeyed when they gave me to a man I barely knew. I obeyed when my cousin took my husband's bed. I obeyed even when I carried his child. Then he burned me alive. I woke up months before the pyre. I found myself back with the same husband and the same traitors, but I remember every detail of what they did to me. This time, I am not the victim. I am the architect of their downfall. Caelan Vorenthal is my husband's greatest rival. He is a shadow in a court of vipers and the only man who saw the truth when everyone else stayed silent. Now he is offering protection. An alliance. A connection that feels less like safety and more like a threat to the walls I have built. Can I trust the one man who could destroy everything? Or is he the weapon I never knew I needed? I was bred to obey. Now I choose who burns. ____________________________________________ The Details - A second chance fueled by the memory of fire - The silent marriage and the loud betrayal - The rival ally who should not be trusted - A heroine reborn to take back her agency - Tense attraction that feels like a risk - Slow burn romance and high-stakes secrets - Spicy scenes and intense emotional payoffs - A fight for survival and the ultimate revengeConcluida

Hate & Heaven | 18+
"You're a devil," she whispered, her voice raw and filled with a mix of anger and desire. Dimitrio chuckled, the sound deep and resonant, reverberating through her like a bass note in a symphony of seduction. "And aren't you this devil's heaven?," he breathed against her skin, his mouth moving to her neck, his teeth scraping lightly against her flesh. She shivered, her body responding to him. "Monster," she swore at him again, the word a whisper that held no real heat. Her voice was a tremble, a soft protest that was lost in the sea of passion that surrounded them. He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "Call me whatever you want, as long as you come screaming my name." His voice was a dark promise, the arrogance in his tone sending a fresh wave of heat through her. *************** Under moon's dark veil, Princess shivers, devil grins.

FOR ALL THAT BURNS
Wahida Dalva never planned to fall in love with him. It happened quietly, for her love was not a shelter but a demolition. It stripped her bare, humiliated her, and left her exiled from the guarded life she'd curated for her. But ruin has a way of shifting the ground beneath you, of rewriting the rules you thought were permanent. Out of that chaos stepped a man who should never have noticed her. Older, colder, untouchable, he existed in a space of quiet power, a man who seemed impossible to claim. And yet, when he reached for her, when he touched her, the world seemed to ignite and burn clean, leaving only the stark, undeniable clarity of what she had always needed. He taught her that love doesn't have to be pure to be real. That safety doesn't always come from good men. That sometimes, the only thing left to do with what's broken is to set it on fire and start again. For All That Burns is a dark, intricate romance about survival, devotion, and the extraordinary danger of being chosen by someone you were never meant to have, a story where ruin and desire coexist in a single, combustible flame.Concluida
Rekindling Old Flames (BWWM)
"I need to teach you a lesson for defying me," Beau says, and in an instant, my leg on his thigh drops down beside his. He puts his other hand on my waist and lifts me off my chair. I land perfectly on him, and my eyes widen once I feel him against me. "Yes, darlin, you are the reason for it, and you are going to satisfy it tonight." "I'll do no such thing," "Oh, you will, and you are going to enjoy it" He places a kiss against my shoulder, and my eyes close as he begins to grind me against him. A moan escapes my lips, but Beau spanks my ass hard the second it does. "Don't moan out, darlin. You don't want anyone to hear us," he says, putting his hand into my dress and caressing my ass he spanked. "Do you?" he asks, kissing my neck and burying his head in my chest. I shake quietly as pleasure surges through my body from his hand and mouth on me. "Good girl" He begins to grind my hips faster against his hard length. ****** Delilah Stephen is a young architect trying to make it independently without Daddy's help.

The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.
Married To My Bully
I felt as if someone had dropped a boulder on my fragile heart. He peppered kisses on her neck and she giggled in response. Right in front of my eyes. I clenched my fist. Their proximity suffocated me. I couldn't breathe. Jealousy and agony gave way to pure rage and without thinking, I jerked the woman out of his hold and pushed her away. "What the hell," she glared at me and I glared back at her before turning my gaze on Alex. "Who is she? And why is she here?" I asked him and could hear my voice shaking because of the enormous rage I was feeling in that moment. I wanted to kill him along with her. He scanned my expression for a moment and then flicked his gaze away as if I don't even exist. "Let's get you to my room," he was about to grab her hand when I grabbed his. I turned to face the woman and gave her a death glare, "Leave." "What," She flicked her gaze on Alex who looked as taken aback as her. I was overly tempted to pluck her eyes out for looking at him. "Eyes here. I am his wife and the lady of this house. And I want you gone. Leave," I gritted out. Completely forgotten that I was going to leave this house tonight. "Only in the paper. And I am the owner of this house," he hissed in my face in a warning tone and then looked at the woman. "Go to my room, Selena," he told her in a stern tone. He was annoyed not by her but by me. I could feel his temper rising, but it was nowhere near mine. My heart shattered in million pieces when he said that. A drop of tear rolled down my cheek as I saw the woman taking the stairs from my peripheral view. My eyes were fixed on Alex who had his jaw set and eyes glaring fire.Concluida
