In the underground Crypt Library, Lyric Morrow binds cursed tomes and silences the whispers of restless magic. But when the Soul Book - the most dangerous artifact ever housed in the Crypt - vanishes, everything fractures.
To retrieve it, three Soul Shepherds arrive:
Judge - sharp, clipped, the commanding lead who questions every order.
Jury - reckless and quicksilver, hiding sharp truths under a playful grin.
Verdict - massive, grounding, a quiet strength that anchors the team.
Lyric doesn't trust them. They don't trust her. But with undead rising, enchanted riddles closing in, and the Veil between worlds weakening, they are forced into an uneasy alliance.
As sparks flicker and long-buried truths surface, Lyric uncovers a chilling connection between the Soul Book and her own bloodline. To reclaim what's been stolen, she'll have to risk everything - including her heart.
A dark, slow-burn paranormal romance where loyalty cuts sharp, trust comes hard, and the first embers of love ignite something far more dangerous.

TELL ME WHO I AM! | Dark Romance | Psychological Thriller |
She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancé, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.Complete
Divine
Blood so much blood...too much blood, my friends...dead..I think.. I don't know, I'm hiding. Under the table in the room that held the meeting, chairs knocked over some pushed away, trying to escape from the horror I witnessed. Everything was going so fine! So So SO FINE! Now everyone is dead.. dead, Dead, DEAD.. my fingers grasp my sandy brown hair pulling as tears stream down my cheeks dripping silently on the tiled floor.. Body limbs and innards lay sprawled across the once nice and cobblestone floor, I think I see a detached head but I try not to look. Hooves walk noisily in the gory mess, squashing intestines and other bodily organs. The hooves stop in front of the table, slowly thighs come into view as the creature squats, tilting its fox-like head as it smiles, pulling its lips back revealing large teeth. "Hello little bunny" it drawls voice smooth like a dark lullaby, "why are you hiding? Shouldn't you be here..with your friends?"
The Space Between Souls
In every lifetime, their souls brush against each other like twilight and dawn-always aching for union, forever kept apart. In the quiet spaces between words unspoken and touches that linger a heartbeat too long, two souls uncover the cruelest truth of all: that love doesn't always come when we're free to receive it. Between stolen glances and conversations that dance around confession, between the safety of friendship and the danger of something deeper, lies a love so profound it threatens to undo everything they thought they were. This is a love not measured in years together, but in fleeting moments that burn brighter than forever. What do you do when your soul finds its match in the wrong person at the wrong time? How do you love someone completely while knowing that love may never find the light? How do you say goodbye to someone who feels like home? Some love stories end in wedding bells. Others end in wisdom. This is the story of a love that lived entirely in the space between what was and what could never be- and how sometimes, that space contains the most beautiful tragedy of all.
